2.2 Serial Interface
The “PC connection” section is only needed, if no 5V external serial data lines for programming exist. The
MAX232 is a standard level shifter, which converts the 5V levels of the MCU to 12V RS232V24 levels and
vice versa.
If you use a 3.3V system a MAX3232 is recommended.
Please consider, that the internal charge pumps of the level shifter can produce noise on the +5 Volts line,
which can influence the ADC, if AVCCn and AVRHn are directly (unfiltered) connected to it.
2.3 Power supply
The power supply should be from 2.7 Volts to 5.5 Volts for normal usage. If a different supply voltage is used
please refer to the corresponding data sheet.

2.4 Analog Digital Converter Supply Pins
The analog converter supply pins (AVCCn, AVRHn / AVRLn, AVSSn) should be connected even if the ADC
of the MCU is not used. Please refer to our application note “mcu-an-300215-e-16fx_adc” for using the ADC
and pin connection.
2.5 Analog Input Pins
Because the ADC works with an internal sample capacitor (Cadc) you must be aware of the time needed to
fully charge this capacitor to the corresponding analog signal source voltage level by the end of the sample
time.
When the external impedance is too high, the sampling period for analog voltages may not be sufficient. In
this case, it is recommended to connect an external capacitor (Cext, approx. 0.1 μF) to the analog input pin.
An input impedance maximum (Rext) 15k Ohm is recommended. So, an appropriate sample time has to be
selected depending on the impedance Rext and the capacitance Cext.
Please refer to Datasheet “A/D Converter” chapter for further information.

2.6 Reset Pin (RSTX)
To reset the MCU a switch connects this pin to Vss (Ground). There is internal 50k pull-up resistor, but for
high noise requirements an external pull-up resistor with typical 10k is recommended. Additionally a
capacitor has to be connected between Vss and the reset pin for debouncing the switch and for EMI
protection. From experience a capacity of not more than 1 nF is recommended. This capacity covers the
most common frequency protection in a wide range. Higher capacities and high impedance may cause
latch-up effects together with an RSTX-Switch and low EMI protection. The reset level of RSTX pins
depends on the logical level on NMIX pin. . Please refer to Hardware manual chapter 7 Reset.

2.7 Non maskable Interrupt Pin (NMIX)
The NMIX supports two several functions, (a) using as NMI input and (b) simultaneous assert of RSTX and
NMIX pins to generate an irregular reset. There is internal 50k pull-up resistor, but for high noise
requirements an external pull-up resistor with typical 10k is recommended.
2.8 C-Pin
A 4.7 µF ceramic capacitor (dielectric X7R) must be connected very close to the C pin of the MCU.
Furthermore an additional 100nF (dielectric X7R) for higher noise frequencies is recommended. Otherwise
the MCU may not operate correct or will be damaged in worst case. Please refer to Datasheet chapter
“Recommended operating conditions” for further information.

2.9 Clock Source
A clock source must be provided to the MCU. Therefore crystals or external clock signals can be used. For
external source pin X0 (X0A) is used whereby pin X1 (X1A) is not connected.
There are MCU derivatives for dual clock and single clock devices, the sub clock can be enabled by
software. If sub clock X0A pin is neither used as GPIO nor as clock input, the pin can be left open.
If you want to use only CR clock then you need a MCU version with disabled CSV.
Please also refer to the chapter “Handling the device” in the corresponding hardware manual for details.
2.10 Mode Pins
The mode pins set the current operation mode for the MCU. For a minimal system only two modes are
necessary: Flash-Asynchronous-Serial-Programming-Mode and Run Mode.
In the case you use the Serial Programming Mode the MD-pins need pull-up/pull-down resistors (typically
2k7 resistors). In order to increase the protection against ESD and EMI effects the PCB tracks should be as
short as possible.
If the Serial Programming Mode is not used the MD-pins can be connected directly to Vcc or GND. Please
refer to Datasheet chapter “Handling devices” for further information.
The following settings are used for the both modes mentioned above:

2.11 Not Connected Pins
In default state after power-on reset usually the GPIO pins are in high-z state.
If unused input pins are left open, they may cause a permanent damage to the device due to malfunction or
latch-up. Connect at least a 2k resistor to each unused pins in pull-up or pull-down configuration. Also, if I/O
pins are not used, they must be set to the output state for releasing or they must be set to the input state and
treated in the same way as for the input pins.
Concerning special use cases it is referred to chapter 4 for how to proceed with unused (not connected)
pins.
2.12 Debug Interface connection
Debugging is only supported by the 50 Ohm single-wire debug system, which is shared with mode pin
„DEBUGIF‟. Concerning current limitation by an external resistor on programming tool side and maximum
clamping current/structure at the „DEBUGIF‟ pin specified values must be taken out of data sheet.

3 Layout and Electromagnetic Compatibility
THIS CHAPTER GIVES SOME TIPS FOR LAYOUT DESIGN
3.1 General
To avoid ESD problems and noise emission of the system some rules for the layout design have to be
observed.
The most critical point is the C pin because this is the connection to the internal 1.2 V supply for the MCU
core. Thus two decoupling capacitors have to be placed very near to this pin.
Also the ground and Vcc routing has to be done carefully. Vcc lines should be routed in star shape. We
recommend a Vss ground plane on the mounting side just under the MCU. For both Vcc and Vss only one
connection to the rest of the circuit should be done, otherwise noise is carried-over from and to the MCU.
This one connection should be used for power supply filtering (PI-Filter with ferrite). Decoupling capacitors
(DeCaps) have to be placed as near as possible to the related pins. If they are placed too far away, their
functionality becomes useless.
If possible all decoupling capacitors should be placed on the same mounting side as the MCU; otherwise the
DeCaps could be placed on bottom layer below the MCU.
PI-Filter prevents EMI from radiating from power supply planes. Keep maximum distance between IN and
OUT capacitor to avoid noise coupling at PI-Filter.
If crystals are used, they have to be placed as near as possible to the X1(A) pins, output of the inverter. The
feedback resistor of oscillator circuit (typ. 1Mohm) is already implemented internally. The evaluation of
crystal/resonator and load capacitor must be tested by the related crystal vendor by crystal matching test.

3.4 Power Line Routing
In general the Vcc and Vss lines should not be routed in “chains”, but in “star shape”. For two layers board
the Vss is recommended as ground plane which covers the chip package, and is connected in one point to
Vss of the whole circuit to avoid a ground loop.
Below is a principal example of a bad and a good power line routing:
Figure 3-1: Example of bad vs. good power line routing
For 4 and more layers PCB the Vcc and Vss should routed as a plane in the inner layers of PCB. Concerning
the layer stack the several Vdd power supply planes should be not overlapped in parallel layers to avoid
noise coupling.
Recommendation for good EMC behaviour:





CONFIDENTIAL
Use 4 layer or 6 layers PCB
Use power supply planes (ground and power) in the inner-layer of PCB layer stack
Reduce the distance between the power planes (low impedance)
One or two decoupling capacitor close to each VCC pad/pair to adjacent
VSS-pad/pair (route under).

A P P L I C A T I O N
N O T E
 Use capacitor groups to match frequency behaviour of power supply decoupling. The decoupling
capacitors can have values between 1nF and 10uF.
 Use ferrite filter for each power domain
 Split the used I/O signals in separate layer for low / high speed, and digital / analog signal types
Below is an example for PCB layer stack:

3.5 Power Supply Decoupling
DeCaps for power supply have to be placed within the “current flow”. Otherwise they are senseless,
because then their function become inoperable. The following graphic illustrates this:

3.6 Recommended Power Supply Circuit
To meet EMC requirements for the target board a noiseless supply is necessary. Therefore the supply
should be filtered as shown in Figure 3-6: Principal Supply circuit. Switched IO pins like stepper motor
controller or external bus interface can generate spikes on the supplies. These are difficult to filter using
capacitors only. A series inductor (ferrite, e.g. WE742792022) is therefore recommended, as shown.

All hard reset events are extended by the hard reset extension circuit to guarantee the stabilization of the
Low Voltage Detector (LVD) and complete reset of the device before program execution starts. The reset
signal at RSTX pin goes through a noise filter to avoid any spike on the reset input. Please note there are
two types of reset level (RST and INIT).

3.8 Quartz Crystal Placement and Signal Routing
The feedback resistor (Rf) of the oscillator circuit is already inside of MCU device. The value of both load
capacitors (C1, C2) should be determined with crystal matching test. The crystal matching test must be done
by the crystal manufacturer based on the target board. As a result of crystal test maybe will be needed a
damping resistor (Rd).

As you can see in
Figure 3-12 the routing of these components is very important in order to reduce EMI
effects. These components have to be placed on the same layer as the MCU. The connection of C1 and C2
to the Vss pin must be routed in a star way and so close as possible. The only vias should be placed to
connect this ground star routing to the ground plane in other layer, never use vias to connect these
components with the corresponding MCU pins.

For a proper performance of the oscillator circuit it is necessary to match the load capacitors (C1, C2) with
the crystal when the MCU, PCB or crystal are replaced for a different one.
As a result of this matching test the value of CL is provided and then the calculation of C1 and C2 can be
done using the Equation 3-1.
3.9 Test points
The FR81S devices support several clock output functions for failure analysis in development, mass
production or in the field. MONCLK out could be used e.g. for clock calibration of main or sub oscillator.

4 Port Input / Unused Pins / Latch-up
HOW TO CONNECT INPUT PORT PINS AND HOW TO PROCEED WITH UNUSED
PINS
4.1 Port Input / Unused Pins
It is strongly recommended not to leave Input Pins unconnected. In this case those pins can enter a
so-called floating state. This can cause a high ICC current, which is adverse to low power modes. Also
damage of the MCU can happen.
Use the internal pull-up/down resistors, if the port provides such function. If not, use external pull-up or
pull-down resistors to define the input-level. If both solutions are not possible, set the Port Pin to Output.
Never connect a potential divider with almost same resistor values.
Figure 4-1: Principal using of input circuit to avoid latch-up or leak current
Be careful with connection of input pins to other devices, which can go into High-Z states. Always use pull-up
or pull-down resistors in this case.
Outputs from external circuits should always be connected via a serial resistor to a MCU input pin.
Debouncing and decoupling capacitors should always be chosen as smallest as possible. Please refer to
chapter 4.2.
All pins are set to input HiZ after its power-on default. Therefore set unused pins to input with internal
pull-up/down resistor, or provide them with pull-up or pull-down resistors.

Do not connect any input ports directly to VCC or VSS (GND)! Always use pull up or down resistors (2k …
10k Ohms). If available it is possible to use the internal pull up or pull down resistors as well. Please note the
value internal resistors can be 20k … 100k depends on the device and temperature.
4.2 Latch-up consideration (switch)
Be careful with external switches to VCC or ground together with debouncing capacitors connected to port
pins.
A usual configuration is shown in the following schematic:
Figure 4-2: Usual configuration switch.
RPD is a pull-down resistor and CBD a debouncing capacitor. If the switch SW is open, a “0” is read from the
port pin Pxy. If the switch is closed the input changes to “1”.
From the physical aspect, it has to be considered, that the switch is often placed in distance to the MCU by
cable, wire, or circuit path. The longer the circuit path is the higher will be its inductivity L X (and capacity CX).
An equivalent circuit diagram looks like the following illustration:
Figure 4-3: Usual configuration switch, equivalent circuit.

By closing the switch SW at time t0 the following voltage can be measured at point (A):
Figure 4-4: Signal rise on switch closing (Point A).
But at the port pin Pxy on point (B) the following voltage can be measured:
Figure 4-5: Signal rise on switch closing (Point B).
By closing the switch SW the circuit becomes a parallel oscillator with the wire-inductivity LX, the debouncing
capacity CX and the damping RPD of the pull-down resistor (Assume the power supply to be ideal, i.e. it has
no internal resistance):

Because RPD is often chosen high (> 50 K Ohms), its damping effect is weak.
This (weakly) attenuated oscillator causes voltage overshoots on the port pin, drawn in red in the illustration
below:
Figure 4-7: Signal on the pin.
These overshoots may cause an internal latch-up on the port pin, because the internal clamping diode
connected to VDD becomes conductive. Similar is the effect, if the switch SW is opened. In this case there
are under shoots on the port pin.
The frequency of the oscillation can be calculated by
fOSC 
1
2 LX CDB
Equation 4-1 : Oscillation frequency.
The inductivity LX is the unknown value and depends on the PCB, its routing, and the wire lengths.
There are two counter measurements to prevent from latch-up.
One solution is to decrease the capacity of the debouncing capacitor. This increases the oscillation
frequency, and the over-all energy of the overshoots is smaller.
Figure 4-8: Signal on the pin with a large capacity.
Figure 4-9: Signal on the pin with a small capacity
This solution has two disadvantages: First the debouncing effect decreases and second, there is no
guarantee, that the latch-up condition is eliminated.
A better solution is to use a series resistor at the port pin like in the following schematic:

Figure 4-10: Series resistor.
The series resistor RS reduces the amplitude of the oscillation and decreases the voltage offset at first. The
resistor must not be chosen too high, so that the port pin input voltage VP is within the positive
CMOS/TTL/Automotive level.

For 5V tolerant IO, the diode is not attached to the Pch side. It is a protection circuit in the parasitic bipolar

5V tolerant inputs are e.g. for MB91F52x: P035, P041, P093, P122. Please see also the note *6 in the DS

5.1 Overview
There are three different ways of programming the internal flash memory of this series.
 Serial programming via Uart0
 Serial programming via MDI interface
 Parallel programming interface.
5.2 Serial programming via UART0
In order to program the internal memory flash of the MCU via Uart0, the only needed part is a cable to
connect the PC with the MCU Usart0 module, to achieve that nowadays you can do it in different ways;
using a regular serial cable if a DB9 serial connector is present in the computer or using a more modern
USB cable (i.e. FTDI: TTL-232R http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/Cables/USBTTLSerial.htm). With the
USB cable the achieved baud rate is higher due to the higher speed of USB communication.

To enable the serial programming using this method, you have to configure the Mode pins in an appropriate
way (see Figure 5-1) according to the Table 2-3.
The setting of the Mode pins can be done automatically by the programming system as you can see in the
Figure 5-2, using only one signal connected to pin MD0, inverting MD1 and a pull-up resistor on the pin
P006.

5.3 Serial programming via MDI interface
A suitable way of programming and debugging is the MDI interface using only one signal (pin Debug I/F)
through the MB2100-01-E debugger.
The MB2100-01-E debugger is connected to the host computer with an USB cable and to the target PCB
with a single wire coaxial.
OCDU is the device built-in debug support unit that provides the on-chip debug function in FR81. OCDU
provides the basic debugger functions (CPU execution/break control, CPU register/memory/IO access),
small-scale debug support functions (event, execution time measurement, trace, etc.), and security function.

5.4 Parallel programming interface
In case of using Flash security and unknown key or if the OCD interface function is disabled, the Flash may
be erased only by the parallel programming mode. The parallel programming is supported by GALEP-5D:

5.5 Security function
This MCU series has a security function to impede improper access to the internal flash. To enable this
function the user has to write in a specific flash memory location a password and a flash security code. From
then security is turned on and access restrictions are imposed on subsequent accesses to flash memory.
Once security has been turned on, the security is not turned off unless the entire flash memory area is
erased (using serial or parallel programming method).
To avoid not authorised access to memory during debugging the user is forced to enter the same password
previously written in flash memory. Once authentication by password of on-chip debugger (OCD) is
completed, you can read the content of flash memory from external by using OCD.
The debug security area is allocated at 30 bytes of built-in flash start address +4 to +33. (For further
information please go to the Hardware Manual of this series)

6 Reset Behaviour of IO port pins
THIS CHAPTER SHOWS THE BEHAVIOUR OF IO-PORT DURING AND AFTER
RESET
During the power-on or RSTX reset state the GPIO port pins are going to HiZ and the inputs are disabled to
prevent the leakage by any floating pin. After release of reset the IO-ports will be set to initial value (see also
related DS of FR81S series)
