Introduction
The rapidly growing area of embedded control applications is representing one of the
most time-critical operating environments for today’s microcontrollers. Complex control
algorithms have to be processed based on a large number of digital as well as analog
input signals, and the appropriate output signals must be generated within a defined
maximum response time. Embedded control applications also are often sensitive to
board space, power consumption, and overall system cost.
Embedded control applications therefore require microcontrollers, which:
•
•
•
•
offer a high level of system integration
eliminate the need for additional peripheral devices and the associated software
overhead
provide system security and fail-safe mechanisms
provide effective means to control (and reduce) the device’s power consumption
The increasing complexity of embedded control applications requires microcontrollers
for new high-end embedded control systems to possess a significant increase in CPU
performance and peripheral functionality over conventional 8-bit controllers. To achieve
this high performance goal Infineon has decided to develop its families of 16-bit CMOS
microcontrollers without the constraints of backward compatibility.
Nonetheless the architectures of the 16-bit microcontroller families pursue successful
hardware and software concepts, which have been established in Infineon’s popular
8-bit controller families.

About this Manual
This manual describes the functionality of a number of 16-bit microcontrollers of the
Infineon XC166 Family.
These microcontrollers provide identical functionality to a large extent, but each device
type has specific unique features as indicated here.
The descriptions in this manual cover a superset of the provided features and refer to the
following derivatives:
•
XC164CS-32F
– 256 Kbytes Program Flash, 12 Kbytes on-chip RAM,
– 14 analog input channels,
– 6 serial interfaces (2 × ASC, 2 × SSC, 2 × CAN)
This manual is valid for these derivatives and describes all variations of the different
available temperature ranges and packages.
For simplicity, these various device types are referred to by the collective term XC164
throughout this manual. The complete pro-electron conforming designations are listed in
the respective data sheets.
Some sections of this manual do not refer to all of the XC164 derivatives which are
currently available or planned (such as devices with different types of on-chip memory
or peripherals). These sections contain respective notes wherever possible.

Introduction
1.1
Members of the 16-bit Microcontroller Family
The microcontrollers in the Infineon 16-bit family have been designed to meet the high
performance requirements of real-time embedded control applications. The architecture
of this family has been optimized for high instruction throughput and minimized response
time to external stimuli (interrupts). Intelligent peripheral subsystems have been
integrated to reduce the need for CPU intervention to a minimum extent. This also
minimizes the need for communication via the external bus interface. The high flexibility
of this architecture allows to serve the diverse and varying needs of different application
areas such as automotive, industrial control, or data communications.
The core of the 16-bit family has been developed with a modular family concept in mind.
All family members execute an efficient control-optimized instruction set (additional
instructions for members of the second generation). This allows easy and quick
implementation of new family members with different internal memory sizes and
technologies, different sets of on-chip peripherals, and/or different numbers of IO pins.
The XBUS concept (internal representation of the external bus interface) provides a
straightforward path for building application-specific derivatives by integrating
application-specific peripheral modules with the standard on-chip peripherals.
As programs for embedded control applications become larger, high level languages are
favored by programmers, because high level language programs are easier to write, to
debug and to maintain. The C166 Family supports this starting with its 2nd generation.
The 80C166-type microcontrollers were the first generation of the 16-bit controller
family. These devices established the C166 architecture.
The C165-type and C167-type devices are members of the second generation of this
family. This second generation is even more powerful due to additional instructions for
HLL support, an increased address space, increased internal RAM, and highly efficient
management of various resources on the external bus.
Enhanced derivatives of this second generation provide more features such as
additional internal high-speed RAM, an integrated CAN-Module, an on-chip PLL, etc.
The design of more efficient systems may require the integration of application-specific
peripherals to boost system performance while minimizing the part count. These efforts
are supported by the XBUS, defined for the Infineon 16-bit microcontrollers (second
generation). The XBUS is an internal representation of the external bus interface which
opens and simplifies the integration of peripherals by standardizing the required
interface. One representative taking advantage of this technology is the integrated CAN
module.
The C165-type devices are reduced functionality versions of the C167 because they do
not have the A/D converter, the CAPCOM units, and the PWM module. This results in a
smaller package, reduced power consumption, and design savings.

Introduction
The C164-type devices, the C167CS derivatives, and some of the C161-type devices
are further enhanced by a flexible power management and form the third generation of
the 16-bit controller family. This power management mechanism provides an effective
means to control the power that is consumed in a certain state of the controller and thus
minimizes the overall power consumption for a given application.
The XC16x derivatives represent the fourth generation of the 16-bit controller family.
The XC166 Family dramatically increases the performance of 16-bit microcontrollers by
several major improvements and additions. The MAC-unit adds DSP-functionality to
handle digital filter algorithms and greatly reduces the execution time of multiplications
and divisions. The 5-stage pipeline, single-cycle execution of most instructions, and
PEC-transfers within the complete addressing range increase system performance.
Debugging the target system is supported by integrated functions for On-Chip Debug
Support (OCDS).
A variety of different versions is provided which offer various kinds of on-chip program
memory1):
•
•
•
•
Mask-programmable ROM
Flash memory
OTP memory
ROMless without non-volatile memory.
Also there are devices with specific functional units.
The devices may be offered in different packages, temperature ranges and speed
classes.
Additional standard and application-specific derivatives are planned and are in
development.
Note: Not all derivatives will be offered in all temperature ranges, speed classes,
packages, or program memory variations.
Information about specific versions and derivatives will be made available with the
devices themselves. Contact your Infineon representative for up-to-date material or refer
to http://www.infineon.com/microcontrollers.
Note: As the architecture and the basic features, such as the CPU core and built-in
peripherals, are identical for most of the currently offered versions of the XC164,
descriptions within this manual that refer to the “XC164” also apply to the other
variations, unless otherwise noted.
1) Not all derivatives are offered with all kinds of on-chip memory.

To describe regular structures (such as ports) indices are used instead of a plethora of
similar bit names, so bit 3 of port 5 is referred to as P5.3.
Where it helps to clarify the relation between several named structures, the next higher
level is added to the respective name to make it unambiguous.
The term ADC_CTR0 clearly identifies register CTR0 as part of module ADC, the term
SYSCON1.CPSYS clearly identifies bitfield CPSYS as part of register SYSCON1.

Architectural Overview
The architecture of the XC164 core combines the advantages of both RISC and CISC
processors in a very well-balanced way. This computing and controlling power is
completed by the DSP-functionality of the MAC-unit. The XC164 integrates this powerful
CPU core with a set of powerful peripheral units into one chip and connects them very
efficiently. On-chip memory blocks with dedicated buses and control units store code
and data. This combination of features results in a high performance microcontroller,
which is the right choice not only for today’s applications, but also for future engineering
challenges. One of the buses used concurrently on the XC164 is the LXBus, an internal
representation of the external bus interface. This bus provides a standardized method
for integrating additional application-specific peripherals into derivatives of the standard
XC164.

Basic CPU Concepts and Optimizations
The main core of the CPU consists of a set of optimized functional units including the
instruction fetch/processing pipelines, a 16-bit Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU), a 40-bit
Multiply and Accumulate Unit (MAC), an Address and Data Unit (ADU), an Instruction
Fetch Unit (IFU), a Register File (RF), and dedicated Special Function Registers (SFRs).
Single clock cycle execution of instructions results in superior CPU performance, while
maintaining C166 code compatibility. Impressive DSP performance, concurrent access
to different kinds of memories and peripherals boost the overall system performance.

Architectural Overview
2.1.1
High Instruction Bandwidth / Fast Execution
Based on the hardware provisions, most of the XC164’s instructions can be executed in
just one clock cycle (1/fCPU). This includes arithmetic instructions, logic instructions, and
move instructions with most addressing modes.
Special instructions such as SRST or PWRDN take more than one machine cycle. Divide
instructions are mainly executed in the background, so other instructions can be
executed in parallel. Due to the prediction mechanism (see Section 4.2), correctly
predicted branch instructions require only one cycle or can even be overlaid with another
instruction (zero-cycle jump).
The instruction cycle time is dramatically reduced through the use of instruction
pipelining. This technique allows the core CPU to process portions of multiple sequential
instruction stages in parallel. Up to seven stages can operate in parallel:
The two-stage instruction fetch pipeline fetches and preprocesses instructions from
the respective program memory:
PREFETCH: Instructions are prefetched from the PMU in the predicted order. The
instructions are preprocessed in the branch detection unit to detect branches. The
prediction logic determines if branches are assumed to be taken or not.
FETCH: The instruction pointer for the next instruction to be fetched is calculated
according to the branch prediction rules. The branch folding unit preprocesses detected
branches and combines them with the preceding instructions to enable zero-cycle
branch execution. Prefetched instructions are stored in the instruction FIFO, while stored
instructions are moved from the instruction FIFO to the instruction processing pipeline.
The five-stage instruction processing pipeline executes the respective instructions:
DECODE: The previously fetched instruction is decoded and the GPR used for indirect
addressing is read from the register file, if required.
ADDRESS: All operand addresses are calculated. For instructions implicitly accessing
the stack the stack pointer (SP) is decremented or incremented.
MEMORY: All required operands are fetched.
EXECUTE: The specified operation (ALU or MAC) is performed on the previously
fetched operands. The condition flags are updated. Explicit write operations to CPUSFRs are executed. GPRs used for indirect addressing are incremented or
decremented, if required.
WRITE BACK: The result operands are written to the specified locations. Operands
located in the DPRAM are stored via the write-back buffer.

2.1.2
Powerful Execution Units
The 16-bit Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU) performs all standard (word) arithmetic
and logical operations. Additionally, for byte operations, signals are provided from bits 6
and 7 of the ALU result to set the condition flags correctly. Multiple precision arithmetic
is provided through a ‘CARRY-IN’ signal to the ALU from previously calculated portions
of the desired operation.
Most internal execution blocks have been optimized to perform operations on either 8-bit
or 16-bit quantities. Instructions have been provided as well to allow byte packing in
memory while providing sign extension of bytes for word wide arithmetic operations. The
internal bus structure also allows transfers of bytes or words to or from peripherals based
on the peripheral requirements.
A set of consistent flags is updated automatically in the PSW after each arithmetic,
logical, shift, or movement operation. These flags allow branching on specific conditions.
Support for both signed and unsigned arithmetic is provided through user-specifiable
branch tests. These flags are also preserved automatically by the CPU upon entry into
an interrupt or trap routine.
A 16-bit barrel shifter provides multiple bit shifts in a single cycle. Rotates and arithmetic
shifts are also supported.
The Multiply and Accumulate Unit (MAC) performs extended arithmetic operations
such as 32-bit addition, 32-bit subtraction, and single-cycle 16-bit × 16-bit multiplication.
The combined MAC operations (multiplication with cumulative addition/subtraction)
represent the major part of the DSP performance of the CPU.
The Address Data Unit (ADU) contains two independent arithmetic units to generate,
calculate, and update addresses for data accesses. The ADU performs the following
major tasks:
•
•
The Standard Address Unit supports linear arithmetic for the short, long, and indirect
addressing modes. It also supports data paging and stack handling.
The DSP Address Generation Unit contains an additional set of address pointers and
offset registers which are used in conjunction with the CoXXX instructions only.
The CPU provides a lot of powerful addressing modes for word, byte, and bit data
accesses (short, long, indirect). The different addressing modes use different formats
and have different scopes.
Dedicated bit processing instructions provide efficient control and testing of peripherals
while enhancing data manipulation. These instructions provide direct access to two
operands in the bit-addressable space without requiring them to be moved into
temporary flags. Logical instructions allow the user to compare and modify a control bit
for a peripheral in one instruction. Multiple bit shift instructions (single cycle execution)
avoid long instruction streams of single bit shift operations. Bitfield instructions allow the
modification of multiple bits from one operand in a single instruction.

2.1.3
High Performance Branch-, Call-, and Loop-Processing
Pipelined execution delivers maximum performance with a stream of subsequent
instructions. Any disruption requires the pipeline to be refilled and the new instruction to
step through the pipeline stages. Due to the high percentage of branching in controller
applications, branch instructions have been optimized to require pipeline refilling only in
special cases. This is realized by detecting and preprocessing branch instructions in the
prefetch stage and by predicting the respective branch target address.
Prefetching then continues from the predicted target address. If the prediction was
correct subsequent instructions can be fed to the execution pipeline without a gap, even
if a branch is executed, i.e. the code execution is not linear. Branch target prediction (see
also Section 4.2.1) uses the following rules:
•
•
•
•
Unconditional branches: Branch prediction is trivial in this case, as the branches
will always be taken and the target address is defined. This applies to implicitly
unconditional branches such as JMPS, CALLR, or RET as well as to branches with
condition code “unconditional” such as JMPI cc_UC.
Fixed prediction: Branch instructions which are often used to realize loops are
assumed to be taken if they branch backward to a previous location (the begin of the
loop). This applies to conditional branches such as JMPR cc_XX or JNB.
Variable prediction: In this case the respective prediction (taken or not taken) is
coded into the instruction and can, therefore, be selected for each individual branch
instruction. Thus, the software designer can optimize the instruction flow to the
specific code to be executed1). This applies to the branch instructions JMPA and
CALLA.
Conditional indirect branches: These branches are always assumed to be not
taken. This applies to branch instructions JMPI cc_XX, [Rw] and CALLI cc_XX, [Rw].
The system state information is saved automatically on the internal system stack, thus
avoiding the use of instructions to preserve state upon entry and exit of interrupt or trap
routines. Call instructions push the value of the IP on the system stack, and require the
same execution time as branch instructions. Additionally, instructions have been
provided to support indirect branch and call instructions. This feature supports
implementation of multiple CASE statement branching in assembler macros and high
level languages.
1) The programming tools accept either dedicated mnemonics for each prediction leaving the choice up to
programmer, or they accept generic mnemonics and apply their own prediction rules.

Consistent and Optimized Instruction Formats
To obtain optimum performance in a pipelined design, an instruction set has been
designed which incorporates concepts from Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC).
These concepts primarily allow fast decoding of the instructions and operands while
reducing pipeline holds. These concepts, however, do not preclude the use of complex
instructions required by microcontroller users. The instruction set was designed to meet
the following goals:
•
•
•
Provide powerful instructions for frequently-performed operations which traditionally
have required sequences of instructions. Avoid transfer into and out of temporary
registers such as accumulators and carry bits. Perform tasks in parallel such as
saving state upon entry into interrupt routines or subroutines.
Avoid complex encoding schemes by placing operands in consistent fields for each
instruction and avoid complex addressing modes which are not frequently used.
Consequently, the instruction decode time decreases and the development of
compilers and assemblers is simplified.
Provide most frequently used instructions with one-word instruction formats. All other
instructions use two-word formats. This allows all instructions to be placed on word
boundaries: this alleviates the need for complex alignment hardware. It also has the
benefit of increasing the range for relative branching instructions.
The high performance of the CPU-hardware can be utilized efficiently by a programmer
by means of the highly functional XC164 instruction set which includes the following
instruction classes:

2.1.5
Programmable Multiple Priority Interrupt System
The XC164 provides 80 separate interrupt nodes that may be assigned to 16 priority
levels with 8 group priorities on each level. Most interrupt sources are connected to a
dedicated interrupt node. In some cases, multi-source interrupt nodes are incorporated
for efficient use of system resources. These nodes can be activated by several source
requests and are controlled via interrupt subnode control registers.
The following enhancements within the XC164 allow processing of a large number of
interrupt sources:
•
•
•
Peripheral Event Controller (PEC): This processor is used to off-load many interrupt
requests from the CPU. It avoids the overhead of entering and exiting interrupt or trap
routines by performing single-cycle interrupt-driven byte or word data transfers
between any two locations with an optional increment of the PEC source pointer, the
destination pointer, or both. Only one cycle is ‘stolen’ from the current CPU activity to
perform a PEC service.
Multiple Priority Interrupt Controller: This controller allows all interrupts to be
assigned any specified priority. Interrupts may also be grouped, which enables the
user to prevent similar priority tasks from interrupting each other. For each of the
interrupt nodes, there is a separate control register which contains an interrupt
request flag, an interrupt enable flag, and an interrupt priority bitfield. After being
accepted by the CPU, an interrupt service can be interrupted only by a higher
prioritized service request. For standard interrupt processing, each of the interrupt
nodes has a dedicated vector location.
Multiple Register Banks: Two local register banks for immediate context switching
add to a relocatable global register bank. The user can specify several register banks
located anywhere in the internal DPRAM and made of up to sixteen general purpose
registers. A single instruction switches from one register bank to another (switching
banks flushes the pipeline, changing the global bank requires a validation sequence).
The XC164 is capable of reacting very quickly to non-deterministic events because its
interrupt response time is within a very narrow range of typically 13 clock cycles (in the
case of internal program execution). Its fast external interrupt inputs are sampled every
clock cycle and allow even very short external signals to be recognized.
The XC164 also provides an excellent mechanism to identify and process exceptions or
error conditions that arise during run-time, so called ‘Hardware Traps’. A hardware trap
causes an immediate non-maskable system reaction which is similar to a standard
interrupt service (branching to a dedicated vector table location). The occurrence of a
hardware trap is additionally signified by an individual bit in the trap flag register (TFR).
Unless another, higher prioritized, trap service is in progress, a hardware trap will
interrupt any current program execution. In turn, a hardware trap service can normally
not be interrupted by a standard or PEC interrupt.
Software interrupts are supported by means of the ‘TRAP’ instruction in combination with
an individual trap (interrupt) number.

2.1.6
Interfaces to System Resources
The CPU of the XC164 interfaces to the system resources via several bus systems
which contribute to the overall performance by transferring data concurrently. This
avoids stalling the CPU because instructions or operands need to be transferred.
The Dual Port RAM (DPRAM) is directly coupled to the CPU because it houses the
global register banks. Transfers from/to these locations affect the performance and are,
therefore, carefully optimized.
The Program Management Unit (PMU) controls accesses to the on-chip program
memory blocks such as the ROM/Flash module and the Program/Data RAM (PSRAM)
and also fetches instructions from external memory.
The 64-bit interface between the PMU and the CPU delivers the instruction words, which
are requested by the CPU. The PMU decides whether the requested instruction word
has to be fetched from on-chip memory or from external memory.
The Data Management Unit (DMU) controls accesses to the on-chip Data RAM
(DSRAM), to the on-chip peripherals connected to the peripheral bus, and to resources
on the external bus. External accesses (including accesses to peripherals connected to
the on-chip LXBus) are executed by the External Bus Controller (EBC).
The 16-bit interface between the DMU and the CPU handles all data transfers
(operands). Data accesses by the CPU are distributed to the appropriate buses
according to the defined address map.
PMU and DMU are directly coupled to perform cross-over transfers with high speed.
Crossover transfers are executed in both directions:
•
•
PMU via DMU: Code fetches from external locations are redirected via the DMU to
EBC. Thus, the XC164 can execute code from external resources. No code can be
fetched from the Data RAM (DSRAM).
DMU via PMU: Data accesses can also be executed to on-chip resources controlled
by the PMU. This includes the following types of transfers:
– Read a constant from the on-chip program ROM/Flash
– Read data from the on-chip PSRAM
– Write data to the on-chip PSRAM (required prior to executing out of it)
– Program/Erase the on-chip Flash memory

On-Chip System Resources
The XC164 controllers provide a number of powerful system resources designed around
the CPU. The combination of CPU and these resources results in the high performance
of the members of this controller family.
Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) and Interrupt Control
The Peripheral Event Controller enables response to an interrupt request with a single
data transfer (word or byte) which consumes only one instruction cycle and does not
require saving and restoring the machine status. Each interrupt source is prioritized for
every machine cycle in the interrupt control block. If PEC service is selected, a PEC
transfer is started. If CPU interrupt service is requested, the current CPU priority level
stored in the PSW register is tested to determine whether a higher priority interrupt is
currently being serviced. When an interrupt is acknowledged, the current state of the
machine is saved on the internal system stack and the CPU branches to the system
specific vector for the peripheral.
The PEC contains a set of SFRs which store the count value and control bits for eight
data transfer channels. In addition, the PEC uses a dedicated area of RAM which
contains the source and destination addresses. The PEC is controlled in a manner
similar to any other peripheral: through SFRs containing the desired configuration of
each channel.
An individual PEC transfer counter is implicitly decremented for each PEC service
except in the continuous transfer mode. When this counter reaches zero, a standard
interrupt is performed to the vector location related to the corresponding source. PEC
services are very well suited, for example, to moving register contents to/from a memory
table. The XC164 has eight PEC channels, each of which offers such fast interruptdriven data transfer capabilities.
Memory Areas
The memory space of the XC164 is configured in a Von Neumann architecture. This
means that code memory, data memory, registers, and IO ports are organized within the
same linear address space which covers up to 16 Mbytes. The entire memory space can
be accessed bytewise or wordwise. Particular portions of the on-chip memory have been
made directly bit addressable as well.
256 Kbytes of on-chip Flash or ROM memory store code or constant data. The onchip Flash memory is organized as four 8-Kbyte sectors, one 32-Kbyte sector, and three
64-Kbyte sectors. Each sector can be separately write protected1), erased and
programmed (in blocks of 128 bytes). The complete Flash area can be read-protected.
A password sequence temporarily unlocks protected areas. The Flash module combines
1) Each two 8-Kbyte sectors are combined for write-protection purposes.

very fast 64-bit one-cycle1) read accesses with protected and efficient writing algorithms
for programming and erasing. Dynamic error correction provides extremely high read
data security for all read accesses.
Programming typically takes 2 ms per 128-byte block (5 ms max.), erasing a sector
typically takes 200 ms (500 ms max.).
The ROM is mask programmed at the factory.
Note: Program execution from on-chip program memory is the fastest of all possible
alternatives and results in maximum performance. The type of the on-chip
program memory depends on the chosen derivative. On-chip program memory
also includes the PSRAM.
6 Kbytes of on-chip Program SRAM (PSRAM) are provided to store user code or data.
The PSRAM is accessed via the PMU and is therefore optimized for code fetches.
2 Kbytes of on-chip Data SRAM (DSRAM) are provided as a storage for general user
data.The DSRAM is accessed via the DMU and is therefore optimized for data accesses.
2 Kbytes of on-chip Dual-Port RAM (DPRAM) are provided as a storage for user
defined variables, for the system stack, and in particular for general purpose register
banks. A register bank can consist of up to 16 wordwide (R0 to R15) and/or bytewide
(RL0, RH0, …, RL7, RH7) so-called General Purpose Registers (GPRs).
The upper 256 bytes of the DPRAM are directly bitaddressable. When used by a GPR,
any location in the DPRAM is bitaddressable.
The CPU has an actual register context of up to 16 wordwide and/or bytewide global
GPRs at its disposal, which are physically located within the on-chip RAM area. A
Context Pointer (CP) register determines the base address of the active global register
bank to be accessed by the CPU at a time. The number of register banks is restricted
only by the available internal RAM space. For easy parameter passing, a register bank
may overlap other register banks.
A system stack of up to 32 Kwords is provided as storage for temporary data. The system
stack can be located anywhere within the complete addressing range and it is accessed
by the CPU via the Stack Pointer (SP) register and the Stack Pointer Segment (SPSEG)
register. Two separate SFRs, STKOV and STKUN, are implicitly compared against the
stack pointer value upon each stack access for the detection of a stack overflow or
underflow. This mechanism also supports the control of a bigger virtual stack. Maximum
performance for stack operations is achieved by allocating the system stack to internal
data RAM areas (DPRAM, DSRAM).
Hardware detection of the selected memory space is placed at the internal memory
decoders and allows the user to specify any address directly or indirectly and obtain the
desired data without using temporary registers or special instructions.
1) Flash accesses may require waitstates, depending on the actual operating frequency. For the exact Flash
memory access timing and the required waitstates please refer to Section 3.10.1.

For Special Function Registers three areas of the address space are reserved: The
standard Special Function Register area (SFR) uses 512 bytes, while the Extended
Special Function Register area (ESFR) uses the other 512 bytes. A range of 4 Kbytes is
provided for the internal IO area (XSFR). SFRs are wordwide registers which are used
for controlling and monitoring functions of the different on-chip units. Unused SFR
addresses are reserved for future members of the XC166 Family with enhanced

ensure upward compatibility.
In order to meet the needs of designs where more memory is required than is provided
on chip, up to 12 Mbytes (approximately, see Table 2-1) of external RAM and/or ROM
can be connected to the microcontroller. The External Bus Interface also provides

To meet the needs of designs where more memory is required than is provided on chip,
up to 12 Mbytes of external RAM and/or ROM can be connected to the XC164
microcontroller via its external bus interface.
All of the external memory accesses are performed by a particular on-chip External Bus
Controller (EBC). It can be programmed either to Single Chip Mode when no external
memory is required, or to one of four different external memory access modes1), which
are as follows:
•
•
•
•
16 … 24-bit Addresses, 16-bit Data, Demultiplexed
16 … 24-bit Addresses, 16-bit Data, Multiplexed
16 … 24-bit Addresses, 8-bit Data, Multiplexed
16 … 24-bit Addresses, 8-bit Data, Demultiplexed
In the demultiplexed bus modes, addresses are output on PORT1 and data is
input/output on PORT0 or P0L, respectively. In the multiplexed bus modes both
addresses and data use PORT0 for input/output. The high order address (segment) lines
use Port 4. The number of active segment address lines is selectable, restricting the
external address space to 8 Mbytes … 64 Kbytes. This is required when interface lines
are assigned to Port 4.
For up to five address areas the bus mode (multiplexed/demultiplexed), the data bus
width (8-bit/16-bit) and even the length of a bus cycle (waitstates, signal delays) can be
selected independently. This allows access to a variety of memory and peripheral
components directly and with maximum efficiency.
The external bus timing is related to the rising edge of the reference clock output
CLKOUT. The external bus protocol is compatible with that of the standard C166 Family.
For applications which require less than 64 Kbytes of address space, a non-segmented
memory model can be selected, where all locations can be addressed by 16 bits. Thus,
Port 4 is not needed as an output for the upper address bits (Axx … A16), as is the case
when using the segmented memory model.
The EBC also controls accesses to resources connected to the on-chip LXBus. The
LXBus is an internal representation of the external bus and allows accessing integrated
peripherals and modules in the same way as external components.
The TwinCAN module is connected and accessed via the LXBus.
1) Bus modes are switched dynamically if several address windows with different mode settings are used.

On-Chip Peripheral Blocks
The XC166 Family clearly separates peripherals from the core. This structure permits
the maximum number of operations to be performed in parallel and allows peripherals to
be added or deleted from family members without modifications to the core. Each
functional block processes data independently and communicates information over
common buses. Peripherals are controlled by data written to the respective Special
Function Registers (SFRs). These SFRs are located within either the standard SFR area
(00’FE00H … 00’FFFFH), the extended ESFR area (00’F000H … 00’F1FFH), or within the
internal IO area (00’E000H … 00’EFFFH).
These built-in peripherals either allow the CPU to interface with the external world or
provide functions on-chip that otherwise would need to be added externally in the
respective system.
The XC164 generic peripherals are:
•

Two General Purpose Timer Blocks (GPT1 and GPT2)
Two Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Interfaces (ASC0 and ASC1)
Two High Speed Serial Interfaces (SSC0 and SSC1)

Enhanced Captute/Compare unit (CAPCOM6)
A 10-bit Analog/Digital Converter (ADC)
A Real Time Clock (RTC)
Seven I/O ports with a total of 79 I/O lines
Because the LXBus is the internal representation of the external bus, it does not support
bit-addressing. Accesses are executed by the EBC as if it were external accesses. The
LXBus connects on-chip peripherals to the CPU:
•
TwinCAN module with 2 CAN nodes and gateway functionality
Each peripheral also contains a set of Special Function Registers (SFRs) which control
the functionality of the peripheral and temporarily store intermediate data results. Each
peripheral has an associated set of status flags. Individually selected clock signals are
generated for each peripheral from binary multiples of the master clock.

Architectural Overview
Peripheral Interfaces
The on-chip peripherals generally have two different types of interfaces: an interface to
the CPU and an interface to external hardware. Communication between the CPU and
peripherals is performed through Special Function Registers (SFRs) and interrupts. The
SFRs serve as control/status and data registers for the peripherals. Interrupt requests
are generated by the peripherals based on specific events which occur during their
operation, such as operation complete, error, etc.
To interface with external hardware, specific pins of the parallel ports are used, when an
input or output function has been selected for a peripheral. During this time, the port pins
are controlled either by the peripheral (when used as outputs) or by the external
hardware which controls the peripheral (when used as inputs). This is called the
‘alternate (input or output) function’ of a port pin, in contrast to its function as a general
purpose I/O pin.
Peripheral Timing
Internal operation of the CPU and peripherals is based on the master clock (fMC). The
clock generation unit uses the on-chip oscillator to derive the master clock from the
crystal or from the external clock signal. The clock signal gated to the peripherals is
independent from the clock signal that feeds the CPU. During Idle mode, the CPU’s clock
is stopped while the peripherals continue their operation. Peripheral SFRs may be
accessed by the CPU once per state. When an SFR is written to by software in the same
state where it is also to be modified by the peripheral, the software write operation has
priority. Further details on peripheral timing are included in the specific sections
describing each peripheral.
Programming Hints
•
Access to SFRs: All SFRs reside in data page 3 of the memory space. The following
addressing mechanisms allow access to the SFRs:
– Indirect or direct addressing with 16-bit (mem) addresses must guarantee that
the used data page pointer (DPP0 … DPP3) selects data page 3.
– Accesses via the Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) use the SRCPx and DSTPx
pointers instead of the data page pointers.
– Short 8-bit (reg) addresses to the standard SFR area do not use the data page
pointers but directly access the registers within this 512-byte area.
– Short 8-bit (reg) addresses to the extended ESFR area require switching to the
512-byte Extended SFR area. This is done via the EXTension instructions EXTR,
EXTP(R), EXTS(R).

Byte Write Operations to wordwide SFRs via indirect or direct 16-bit (mem)
addressing or byte transfers via the PEC force zeros in the non-addressed byte. Byte
write operations via short 8-bit (reg) addressing can access only the low byte of an
SFR and force zeros in the high byte. It is therefore recommended, to use the bit field
instructions (BFLDL and BFLDH) to write to any number of bits in either byte of an
SFR without disturbing the non-addressed byte and the unselected bits.
Reserved Bits: Some of the bits which are contained in the XC164’s SFRs are
marked as ‘Reserved’. User software should never write ‘1’s to reserved bits. These
bits are currently not implemented and may be used in future products to invoke new
functions. In that case, the active state for those new functions will be ‘1’, and the
inactive state will be ‘0’. Therefore writing only ‘0’s to reserved locations allows
portability of the current software to future devices. After read accesses, reserved bits
should be ignored or masked out.
Capture/Compare Units (CAPCOM1/2)
The CAPCOM units support generation and control of timing sequences on up to
32 channels with a maximum resolution of 1 system clock cycle (8 cycles in staggered
mode). The CAPCOM units are typically used to handle high speed I/O tasks such as
pulse and waveform generation, pulse width modulation (PMW), Digital to Analog (D/A)
conversion, software timing, or time recording relative to external events.
Four 16-bit timers (T0/T1, T7/T8) with reload registers provide two independent time
bases for each capture/compare register array.
The input clock for the timers is programmable to several prescaled values of the internal
system clock, or may be derived from an overflow/underflow of timer T6 in module GPT2.
This provides a wide range of variation for the timer period and resolution and allows
precise adjustments to the application specific requirements. In addition, external count
inputs for CAPCOM timers T0 and T7 allow event scheduling for the capture/compare
registers relative to external events.
Both of the two capture/compare register arrays contain 16 dual purpose
capture/compare registers, each of which may be individually allocated to either
CAPCOM timer T0 or T1 (T7 or T8, respectively), and programmed for capture or
compare function.
All registers of each module have each one port pin associated with it which serves as
an input pin for triggering the capture function, or as an output pin to indicate the
occurrence of a compare event.

When a capture/compare register has been selected for capture mode, the current
contents of the allocated timer will be latched (‘captured’) into the capture/compare
register in response to an external event at the port pin which is associated with this
register. In addition, a specific interrupt request for this capture/compare register is
generated. Either a positive, a negative, or both a positive and a negative external signal
transition at the pin can be selected as the triggering event.
The contents of all registers which have been selected for one of the five compare modes
are continuously compared with the contents of the allocated timers.
When a match occurs between the timer value and the value in a capture/compare
register, specific actions will be taken based on the selected compare mode.

Capture/Compare Unit CAPCOM6
The CAPCOM6 unit supports generation and control of timing sequences on up to three
16-bit capture/compare channels plus one independent 10-bit compare channel.
In compare mode the CAPCOM6 unit provides two output signals per channel which
have inverted polarity and non-overlapping pulse transitions (deadtime control). The
compare channel can generate a single PWM output signal and is further used to
modulate the capture/compare output signals.
In capture mode the contents of compare timer T12 is stored in the capture registers
upon a signal transition at pins CCx.
The output signals can be generated in edge-aligned or center-aligned PWM mode.
They are generated continuously or in single-shot mode.
Compare timers T12 (16-bit) and T13 (10-bit) are free running timers which are clocked
by the prescaled system clock.
For motor control applications (brushless DC-drives) both subunits may generate
versatile multichannel PWM signals which are basically either controlled by compare
timer T12 or by a typical hall sensor pattern at the interrupt inputs (block commutation).
The latter mode provides noise filtering for the hall inputs and supports automatic
rotational speed measurement.
The trap function offers a fast emergency stop without CPU activity. Triggered by an
external signal (CTRAP) the outputs are switched to selectable logic levels which can be
adapted to the connected power stages.

General Purpose Timer (GPT12E) Unit
The GPT12E unit represents a very flexible multifunctional timer/counter structure which
may be used for many different time related tasks such as event timing and counting,
pulse width and duty cycle measurements, pulse generation, or pulse multiplication.
The GPT12E unit incorporates five 16-bit timers which are organized in two separate
blocks, GPT1 and GPT2. Each timer in each block may operate independently in a
number of different modes, or may be concatenated with another timer of the same
block.
Each of the three timers T2, T3, T4 of block GPT1 can be configured individually for one
of four basic modes of operation, which are Timer, Gated Timer, Counter, and
Incremental Interface Mode. In Timer Mode, the input clock for a timer is derived from
the system clock, divided by a programmable prescaler, while Counter Mode allows a
timer to be clocked in reference to external events.
Pulse width or duty cycle measurement is supported in Gated Timer Mode, where the
operation of a timer is controlled by the ‘gate’ level on an external input pin. For these
purposes, each timer has one associated port pin (TxIN) which serves as gate or clock
input. The maximum resolution of the timers in block GPT1 is 4 system clock cycles.
The count direction (up/down) for each timer is programmable by software or may
additionally be altered dynamically by an external signal on a port pin (TxEUD) to
facilitate e.g. position tracking.
In Incremental Interface Mode the GPT1 timers (T2, T3, T4) can be directly connected
to the incremental position sensor signals A and B via their respective inputs TxIN and
TxEUD. Direction and count signals are internally derived from these two input signals,
so the contents of the respective timer Tx corresponds to the sensor position. The third
position sensor signal TOP0 can be connected to an interrupt input.
Timer T3 has an output toggle latch (T3OTL) which changes its state on each timer overflow/underflow. The state of this latch may be output on pin T3OUT e.g. for time out
monitoring of external hardware components. It may also be used internally to clock
timers T2 and T4 for measuring long time periods with high resolution.
In addition to their basic operating modes, timers T2 and T4 may be configured as reload
or capture registers for timer T3. When used as capture or reload registers, timers T2
and T4 are stopped. The contents of timer T3 is captured into T2 or T4 in response to a
signal at their associated input pins (TxIN). Timer T3 is reloaded with the contents of T2
or T4 triggered either by an external signal or by a selectable state transition of its toggle
latch T3OTL. When both T2 and T4 are configured to alternately reload T3 on opposite
state transitions of T3OTL with the low and high times of a PWM signal, this signal can
be constantly generated without software intervention.
With its maximum resolution of 2 system clock cycles, the GPT2 block provides precise
event control and time measurement. It includes two timers (T5, T6) and a
capture/reload register (CAPREL). Both timers can be clocked with an input clock which

is derived from the CPU clock via a programmable prescaler or with external signals. The
count direction (up/down) for each timer is programmable by software or may
additionally be altered dynamically by an external signal on a port pin (TxEUD).
Concatenation of the timers is supported via the output toggle latch (T6OTL) of timer T6,
which changes its state on each timer overflow/underflow.
The state of this latch may be used to clock timer T5, and/or it may be output on pin
T6OUT. The overflows/underflows of timer T6 can additionally be used to clock the
CAPCOM1/2 timers, and to cause a reload from the CAPREL register.
The CAPREL register may capture the contents of timer T5 based on an external signal
transition on the corresponding port pin (CAPIN), and timer T5 may optionally be cleared
after the capture procedure. This allows the XC164 to measure absolute time differences
or to perform pulse multiplication without software overhead.
The capture trigger (timer T5 to CAPREL) may also be generated upon transitions of
GPT1 timer T3’s inputs T3IN and/or T3EUD. This is especially advantageous when T3
operates in Incremental Interface Mode.

Real Time Clock
The Real Time Clock (RTC) module of the XC164 is directly clocked via a separate clock
driver with the prescaled on-chip main oscillator frequency (fRTC = fOSCm/32). It is
therefore independent from the selected clock generation mode of the XC164.
The RTC basically consists of a chain of divider blocks:
•
•
•
a selectable 8:1 divider (on - off)
the reloadable 16-bit timer T14
the 32-bit RTC timer block (accessible via registers RTCH and RTCL), made of:
– a reloadable 10-bit timer
– a reloadable 6-bit timer
– a reloadable 6-bit timer
– a reloadable 10-bit timer
All timers count up. Each timer can generate an interrupt request. All requests are
combined to a common node request. Additionally, T14 can generate a separate node
request.
Note: The registers associated with the RTC are not affected by a reset in order to
maintain the correct system time even when intermediate resets are executed.
The RTC module can be used for different purposes:
•
•
•
•
System clock to determine the current time and date,
optionally during idle mode, sleep mode, and power down mode
Cyclic time based interrupt, to provide a system time tick independent of CPU
frequency and other resources, e.g. to wake-up regularly from idle mode
48-bit timer for long term measurements (maximum timespan is > 100 years)
Alarm interrupt for wake-up on a defined time

A/D Converter
For analog signal measurement, a 10-bit A/D converter with 14 multiplexed input
channels and a sample and hold circuit has been integrated on-chip. It uses the method
of successive approximation. The sample time (for loading the capacitors) and the
conversion time is programmable (in two modes) and can thus be adjusted to the
external circuitry. The A/D converter can also operate in 8-bit conversion mode, where
the conversion time is further reduced.
Overrun error detection/protection is provided for the conversion result register
(ADDAT): either an interrupt request will be generated when the result of a previous
conversion has not been read from the result register at the time the next conversion is
complete, or the next conversion is suspended in such a case until the previous result
has been read.
For applications which require less analog input channels, the remaining channel inputs
can be used as digital input port pins.
The A/D converter of the XC164 supports four different conversion modes. In the
standard Single Channel conversion mode, the analog level on a specified channel is
sampled once and converted to a digital result. In the Single Channel Continuous mode,
the analog level on a specified channel is repeatedly sampled and converted without
software intervention. In the Auto Scan mode, the analog levels on a prespecified
number of channels are sequentially sampled and converted. In the Auto Scan
Continuous mode, the prespecified channels are repeatedly sampled and converted. In
addition, the conversion of a specific channel can be inserted (injected) into a running
sequence without disturbing this sequence. This is called Channel Injection Mode.
The Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) may be used to automatically store the
conversion results into a table in memory for later evaluation, without requiring the
overhead of entering and exiting interrupt routines for each data transfer.
After each reset and also during normal operation the ADC automatically performs
calibration cycles. This automatic self-calibration constantly adjusts the converter to
changing operating conditions (e.g. temperature) and compensates process variations.
These calibration cycles are part of the conversion cycle, so they do not affect the normal
operation of the A/D converter. The calibration cycles after a conversion can be disabled,
so the overall conversion time is reduced again.
In order to decouple analog inputs from digital noise and to avoid input trigger noise
those pins used for analog input can be disconnected from the digital IO or input stages
under software control. This can be selected for each pin separately via register P5DIDIS
(Port 5 Digital Input Disable).
The Auto-Power-Down feature of the A/D converter minimizes the power consumption
when no conversion is in progress.

Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Interfaces (ASC0/ASC1)
The Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Interfaces ASC0/ASC1 (USARTs) provide serial
communication with other microcontrollers, processors, terminals or external peripheral
components. They are upward compatible with the serial ports of the Infineon 8-bit
microcontroller families and support full-duplex asynchronous communication and halfduplex synchronous communication. A dedicated baud rate generator with a fractional
divider precisely generates all standard baud rates without oscillator tuning.
In asynchronous mode, 8- or 9-bit data frames (with optional parity bit) are transmitted
or received, preceded by a start bit and terminated by one or two stop bits. For
multiprocessor communication, a mechanism to distinguish address from data bytes has
been included (8-bit data plus wake-up bit mode). IrDA data transmissions up to
115.2 kbit/s with fixed or programmable IrDA pulse width are supported. An autobaud
detection unit allows to detect asynchronous data frames with its baudrate and mode
with automatic initialization of the baudrate generator and the mode control bits.
In synchronous mode, bytes (8 bits) are transmitted or received synchronously to a shift
clock which is generated by the ASC0/1.
The LSB is always shifted first. In both modes, transmission and reception of data is
FIFO-buffered (8 entries per direction). A loop-back option is available for testing
purposes. Five separate interrupt vectors are provided for transmit buffer, transmission,
reception, autobaud detection, and error handling.
A number of optional hardware error detection capabilities has been included to increase
the reliability of data transfers. A parity bit can automatically be generated on
transmission or be checked on reception. Framing error detection allows to recognize
data frames with missing stop bits. An overrun error will be generated, if the last
character received has not been read out of the receive buffer register at the time the
reception of a new character is complete.

i.e. the on-chip TwinCAN module can receive and transmit standard frames with 11-bit
identifiers as well as extended frames with 29-bit identifiers.
Two Full-CAN nodes share the TwinCAN module’s resources to optimize the CAN bus
traffic handling and to minimize the CPU load. The module provides up to 32 message

The flexible combination of Full-CAN functionality and FIFO architecture reduces the
efforts to fulfill the real-time requirements of complex embedded control applications.
Improved CAN bus monitoring functionality as well as the number of message objects
permit precise and comfortable CAN bus traffic handling.
Gateway functionality allows automatic data exchange between two separate CAN bus
systems, which reduces CPU load and improves the real time behavior of the entire

Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer represents one of the fail-safe mechanisms which have been
implemented to prevent the controller from malfunctioning for longer periods of time.
The Watchdog Timer is always enabled after a reset of the chip, and can be disabled
until the EINIT instruction has been executed (compatible mode), or it can be disabled
and enabled at any time by executing instructions DISWDT and ENWDT (enhanced
mode). Thus, the chip’s start-up procedure is always monitored. The software has to be
designed to restart the Watchdog Timer before it overflows. If, due to hardware or
software related failures, the software fails to do so, the Watchdog Timer overflows and
generates an internal hardware reset and pulls the RSTOUT pin low in order to allow
external hardware components to be reset.
The Watchdog Timer is a 16-bit timer, clocked with the system clock divided by
2/4/128/256. The high byte of the Watchdog Timer register can be set to a prespecified
reload value (stored in WDTREL) to allow further variation of the monitored time interval.
Each time it is serviced by the application software, the high byte of the Watchdog Timer
is reloaded and the low byte is cleared. Thus, time intervals between 13 µs and 419 ms
can be monitored (@ 40 MHz).
The default Watchdog Timer interval after reset is 3.28 ms (@ 40 MHz).

Parallel Ports
The XC164 provides up to 79 I/O lines which are organized into six input/output ports
and one input port. All port lines are bit-addressable, and all input/output lines are
individually (bit-wise) programmable as inputs or outputs via direction registers. The I/O
ports are true bidirectional ports which are switched to high impedance state when
configured as inputs. The output drivers of some I/O ports can be configured (pin by pin)
for push/pull operation or open-drain operation via control registers. During the internal
reset, all port pins are configured as inputs (except for pin RSTOUT).
The edge characteristics (shape) and driver characteristics (output current) of the port
drivers can be selected via registers POCONx.
The input threshold of some ports is selectable (TTL or CMOS like), where the special
CMOS like input threshold reduces noise sensitivity due to the input hysteresis. The
input threshold may be selected individually for each byte of the respective ports.
All port lines have programmable alternate input or output functions associated with
them. All port lines that are not used for these alternate functions may be used as general
purpose IO lines.

Clock Generation
The Clock Generation Unit uses a programmable on-chip PLL with multiple prescalers
to generate the clock signals for the XC164 with high flexibility. The master clock fMC is
the reference clock signal, and is used for TwinCAN and is output to the external system.
The CPU clock fCPU and the system clock fSYS are derived from the master clock either
directly (1:1) or via a 2:1 prescaler (fSYS = fCPU = fMC/2).
The on-chip oscillator can drive an external crystal or accepts an external clock signal.
The oscillator clock frequency can be multiplied by the on-chip PLL (by a programmable
factor) or can be divided by a programmable prescaler factor.
If the bypass mode is used (direct drive or prescaler) the PLL can deliver an independent
clock to monitor the clock signal generated by the on-chip oscillator. This PLL clock is
independent from the XTAL1 clock. When the expected oscillator clock transitions are
missing the Oscillator Watchdog (OWD) activates the PLL Unlock/OWD interrupt node
and supplies the CPU with an emergency clock, the PLL clock signal. Under these
circumstances the PLL will oscillate with its basic frequency.
The oscillator watchdog can be disabled by switching the PLL off. This reduces power
consumption, but also no interrupt request will be generated in case of a missing
oscillator clock.
2.5
Power Management Features
The basic power reduction modes (Idle and Power Down) are enhanced by additional
power management features (see below). These features can be combined to reduce
the controller’s power consumption to correspond to the application’s possible minimum.

Periodic wake-up from Idle mode via RTC timer
The listed features provide effective means to realize standby conditions for the system
with an optimum balance between power reduction (standby time) and peripheral
operation (system functionality).
Basic Power Saving Modes
The XC164 can be switched into special operating modes (control via instructions)
where its power consumption (and functionality) is reduced.
Idle Mode stops the CPU while the peripherals can continue to operate.
Sleep Mode and Power Down Mode stop all clock signals and all operation (RTC may
optionally continue running). Sleep Mode can be terminated by external interrupt signals.

Architectural Overview
Flexible Clock Generation
The flexible clock generation system combines a variety of improved mechanisms (partly
user controllable) to provide the XC164 modules with clock signals. This is especially
important in power sensitive modes such as standby operation.
The power optimized oscillator generally reduces the amount of power which is
consumed in order to generate the clock signal within the XC164.
The clock system controls the distribution and the frequency of internal and external
clock signals. The user can reduce the XC164’s CPU clock frequency which drastically
reduces the consumed power.
External circuitry can be controlled via the programmable frequency output FOUT.
Flexible Peripheral Management
Flexible peripheral management provides a mechanism to enable and disable each
peripheral module separately. In each situation (such as several system operating
modes, standby, etc.) only those peripherals may be kept running which are required for
the specified functionality, for example, to maintain communication channels. All others
may be switched off. The registers of disabled peripherals can still be accessed.
Periodic Wake-up from Idle or Sleep Mode
Periodic wake-up from Idle mode or from Sleep mode combines the drastically reduced
power consumption in Idle/Sleep mode (in conjunction with the additional power
management features) with a high level of system availability. External signals and
events can be scanned (at a lower rate) by periodically activating the CPU and selected
peripherals which then return to powersave mode after a short time. This greatly reduces
the system’s average power consumption. Idle/Sleep mode can also be terminated by
external interrupt signals.

On-Chip Debug Support (OCDS)
The On-Chip Debug Support system provides a broad range of debug and emulation
features built into the XC164. The user software running on the XC164 can thus be
debugged within the target system environment.
The OCDS is controlled by an external debugging device via the debug interface,
consisting of the IEEE-1149-conforming JTAG port and a break interface. The debugger
controls the OCDS via a set of dedicated registers accessible via the JTAG interface.
Additionally, the OCDS system can be controlled by the CPU, e.g. by a monitor program.
An injection interface allows the execution of OCDS-generated instructions by the CPU.
Multiple breakpoints can be triggered by on-chip hardware, by software, or by an
external trigger input. Single stepping is supported as well as the injection of arbitrary
instructions and read/write access to the complete internal address space. A breakpoint
trigger can be answered with a CPU-halt, a monitor call, a data transfer, or/and the
activation of an external signal.
The data transferred at a watchpoint (see above) can be obtained via the JTAG interface
or via the external bus interface for increased performance.
The debug interface uses a set of 6 interface signals (4 JTAG lines, 2 break lines) to
communicate with external circuitry. These interface signals occupy Port 3 pins while
they are activated.
Complete system emulation is supported by an emulation device. Via this full-featured
emulation interface (including internal buses, control, status, and pad signals) the
functions of the XC164 chip can be emulated in an emulation system.

The memory space of the XC164 is configured in a “Von Neumann” architecture. This
means that code and data are accessed within the same linear address space. All of the
physically separated memory areas, including internal ROM/Flash/OTP (where
integrated), internal RAM, the internal Special Function Register Areas (SFRs and
ESFRs), the internal IO area, and external memory are mapped into one common

Memory Organization
The XC164 provides a total addressable memory space of 16 Mbytes. This address
space is arranged as 256 segments of 64 Kbytes each, and each segment is again
subdivided into four data pages of 16 Kbytes each (see Figure 3-1).
Bytes are stored at even or odd byte addresses. Words are stored in ascending memory
locations with the low byte at an even byte address being followed by the high byte at
the next odd byte address. Double words (code only) are stored in ascending memory
locations as two subsequent words. Single bits are always stored in the specified bit
position at a word address. Bit position 0 is the least significant bit of the byte at an even
byte address, and bit position 15 is the most significant bit of the byte at the next odd
byte address. Bit addressing is supported for a part of the Special Function Registers, a
part of the internal RAM and for the General Purpose Registers.

Address Mapping
All the various memory areas and peripheral registers (see Table 3-1) are mapped into
one contiguous address space. All sections can be accessed in the same way. The

Special Function Registers
The functions of the CPU, the bus interface, the IO ports, and the on-chip peripherals of
the XC164 are controlled via a number of Special Function Registers (SFRs).
All Special Function Registers can be addressed via indirect and long 16-bit addressing
modes. The (word) SFRs and their respective low bytes in the SFR/ESFR areas can be
addressed using an 8-bit offset together with an implicit base address. However, this
does not work for the respective high bytes!
Note: Writing to any byte of an SFR causes the not addressed complementary byte to
be cleared.
The upper half of the SFR-area (00’FFFFH … 00’FF00H) and the ESFR-area (00’F1FFH
… 00’F100H) is bit-addressable, so the respective control/status bits can be modified
directly or checked using bit addressing.
When accessing registers in the ESFR area using 8-bit addresses or direct bit
addressing, an Extend Register (EXTR) instruction is required beforehand to switch the
short addressing mechanism from the standard SFR area to the Extended SFR area.
This is not required for 16-bit and indirect addresses. The GPRs R15 … R0 are
duplicated, i.e. they are accessible within both register blocks via short 2-, 4-, or 8-bit
addresses without switching.

;The scope of the EXTR #4 instruction …
;… ends here!
;T8REL uses 16-bit mem address,
;R1 is accessed via the SFR space
In order to minimize the use of the EXTR instructions the ESFR area mostly holds
registers which are mainly required for initialization and mode selection. Registers that
need to be accessed frequently are allocated to the standard SFR area, wherever
possible.
Note: The tools are equipped to monitor accesses to the ESFR area and will
automatically insert EXTR instructions, or issue a warning in case of missing or
excessive EXTR instructions.
Accesses to registers in the XSFR area use 16-bit addresses and require no specific
addressing modes or precautions.

General Purpose Registers
The General Purpose Registers (GPRs) use a block of 16 consecutive words either
within the global register bank or within one of the two local register banks. Bitfield BANK
in register PSW selects the currently active register bank. The global register bank is
mirrored to a section in the DPRAM, the Context Pointer (CP) register determines the
base address of the currently active global register bank section. This register bank may
consist of up to 16 Word-GPRs (R0, R1, … R15) and/or of up to 16 byte-GPRs (RL0,
RH0, … RL7, RH7). The sixteen byte-GPRs are mapped onto the first eight Word-GPRs
(see Table 3-2).
In contrast to the system stack, a register bank grows from lower towards higher address
locations and occupies a maximum space of 32 bytes. The GPRs are accessed via short
2-, 4-, or 8-bit addressing modes using the Context Pointer (CP) register as base
address for the global bank (independent of the current DPP register contents).
Additionally, each bit in the currently active register bank can be accessed individually.

The XC164 supports fast register bank (context) switching. Multiple global register banks
can physically exist within the DPRAM at the same time. Only the global register bank
selected by the Context Pointer register (CP) is active at a given time, however.
Selecting a new active global register bank is simply done by updating the CP register.
A particular Switch Context (SCXT) instruction performs register bank switching by
automatically saving the previous context and loading the new context. The number of
implemented register banks (arbitrary sizes) is limited only by the size of the available
DPRAM.
Note: The local GPR banks are not memory mapped and the GPRs cannot be accessed
using a long or indirect memory address.
PEC Source and Destination Pointers
The source and destination address pointers for data transfers on the PEC channels are
located in the XSFR area.
Each channel uses a pair of pointers stored in two subsequent word locations with the
source pointer (SRCPx) on the lower and the destination pointer (DSTPx) on the higher
word address (x = 7 … 0). An additional segment register stores the associated source
and destination segments, so PEC transfers can move data from/to any location within
the complete addressing range.
Whenever a PEC data transfer is performed, the pair of source and destination pointers
(selected by the specified PEC channel number) accesses the locations referred to by
these pointers independently of the current DPP register contents.
If a PEC channel is not used, the corresponding pointer locations can be used for other
purposes.
For more details about the use of the source and destination pointers for PEC data
transfers see Section 5.4.
Note: Writing to any byte of the PEC pointers causes the not addressed complementary
byte to be cleared.

The XC164 provides two on-chip RAM areas for data storage:
•
•
The Dual Port RAM (DPRAM) can be used for global register banks (GPRs), system
stack, storage of variables and other data, in particular for MAC operands.
The Data SRAM (DSRAM) can be used for system stack (recommended), storage
of variables and other data.
Note: Data can also be stored in the PSRAM (see Section 3.4). However, the data
memory areas provide the fastest access.

Dual-Port RAM (DPRAM)
The XC164 provides 2 Kbytes of DPRAM (00’F600H … 00’FDFFH). Any word or byte
data in the DPRAM can be accessed via indirect or long 16-bit addressing modes, if the
selected DPP register points to data page 3. Any word data access is made on an even
byte address. The highest possible word data storage location in the DPRAM is
00’FDFEH.
For PEC data transfers, the DPRAM can be accessed independent of the contents of the
DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.
The upper 256 bytes of the DPRAM (00’FD00H through 00’FDFFH) are provided for
single bit storage, and thus they are bitaddressable (see hashed block in Figure 3-4).
Note: Code cannot be executed out of the DPRAM.
An area of 3 Kbytes is dedicated to DPRAM (00’F200H … 00’FDFFH). The locations
without implemented DPRAM are reserved.
Data SRAM (DSRAM)
The XC164 provides 4 Kbytes of DSRAM (00’C000H … 00’CFFFH). Any word or byte
data in the DSRAM can be accessed via indirect or long 16-bit addressing modes, if the
selected DPP register points to data page 3. Any word data access is made on an even
byte address. The highest possible word data storage location in the DSRAM is
00’CFFEH.
For PEC data transfers, the DSRAM can be accessed independent of the contents of the
DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.
Note: Code cannot be executed out of the DSRAM.
An area of 20 Kbytes is dedicated to DSRAM (00’8000H … 00’CFFFH). The locations
without implemented DSRAM are reserved.

Program Memory Areas
The XC164 provides two on-chip program memory areas for code/data storage:
•
EPSRAM Flash Reg.
•
The Program Flash/ROM stores code and constant data. Flash memory is (re-)
programmed by the application software, ROM is mask-programmed in the factory.
The Program SRAM (PSRAM) stores temporary code sequences and other data.
For example higher level bootloader software can be written to the PSRAM and then
be executed to program the on-chip Flash memory.

Program/Data SRAM (PSRAM)
The XC164 provides 6 Kbytes of PSRAM (E0’0000H … E0’17FFH). The PSRAM
provides fast code execution without initial delays. Therefore, it supports non-sequential
code execution, for example via the interrupt vector table.
Any word or byte data in the PSRAM can be accessed via indirect or long 16-bit
addressing modes, if the selected DPP register points to data page 896. Any word data
access is made on an even byte address. The highest possible word data storage
location in the PSRAM is E0’17FEH.
For PEC data transfers, the PSRAM can be accessed independent of the contents of the
DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.
Any data can be stored in the PSRAM. Because the PSRAM is optimized for code
fetches, however, data accesses to the data memories provide higher performance.
Note: The PSRAM is not bitaddressable.
An area of 1.5 Mbytes is dedicated to PSRAM (E0’0000H … F7’FFFFH). The locations
without implemented PSRAM are reserved.
The Emulation PSRAM area (EPSRAM, F8’0000H … F8’17FFH) provides a second
access path to the PSRAM with timing parameters that correspond to Flash-timing with
WSFLASH = 00B. Using the EPSRAM area produces exactly the same timing as on an
emulation device, for timing-sensitive applications.
Non-Volatile Program Memory (Flash)
The XC164 provides 256 Kbytes of program Flash (C0’0000H … C3’FFFFH). Code and
data fetches are always 64-bit aligned, using byte select lines for word and byte data.
Any word or byte data in the program memory can be accessed via indirect or long 16-bit
addressing modes, if the selected DPP register points to one of the respective data
pages. Any word data access is made on an even byte address. The highest possible
word data storage location in the program memory is C3’FFFEH.
For PEC data transfers, the program memory can be accessed independent of the
contents of the DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.
Note: The program memory is not bitaddressable.
An area of 2 Mbytes is dedicated to program memory (C0’0000H … DF’FFFFH). The
locations without implemented program memory are reserved.

System Stack
The system stack may be defined anywhere within the XC164’s memory areas (including
external memory).
For all system stack operations the respective stack memory is accessed via a 24-bit
stack pointer. The Stack Pointer (SP) register provides the lower 16 bits of the stack
pointer (stack pointer offset), the Stack Pointer Segment (SPSEG) register adds the
upper 8 bits of the stack pointer (stack segment). The system stack grows downward
from higher towards lower locations as it is filled. Only word accesses are supported to
the system stack.
Register SP is decremented before data is pushed on the system stack, and
incremented after data has been pulled from the system stack. Only word accesses are
supported to the system stack.
By using register SP for stack operations, the size of the system stack is limited to
64 Kbytes. The stack must be located in the segment defined by register SPSEG.
The stack pointer points to the latest system stack entry, rather than to the next available
system stack address.
A stack overflow (STKOV) register and a stack underflow (STKUN) register are provided
to control the lower and upper limits of the selected stack area. These two stack
boundary registers can be used both for protection against data corruption.
For best performance it is recommended to locate the stack to the DPRAM or to the
DSRAM. Using the DPRAM may conflict with register banks or MAC operands.

IO Areas
The following areas of the XC164’s address space are marked as IO area:
•
•
The external IO area is provided for external peripherals (or memories) and also
comprises the on-chip LXBus-peripherals, such as the TwinCAN module.
It is located from 20’0000H to 3F’FFFFH (2 Mbytes).
The internal IO area provides access to the internal peripherals and is split into three
blocks:
– The SFR area, located from 00’FE00H to 00’FFFFH (512 bytes)
– The ESFR area, located from 00’F000H to 00’F1FFH (512 bytes)
– The XSFR area, located from 00’E000H to 00’EFFFH (4 Kbytes)
Note: The external IO area supports real byte accesses. The internal IO area does not
support real byte transfers, the complementary byte is cleared when writing to a
byte location.
The IO areas have special properties, because peripheral modules must be controlled
in a different way than memories:
•
•
•
Accesses are not buffered and cached, the write back buffers and caches are not
used to store IO read and write accesses.
Speculative reads are not executed, but delayed until all speculations are solved (e.g.
prefetching after conditional branches).
Data forwarding is disabled, an IO read access is delayed until all IO writes pending
in the pipeline are executed, because peripherals can change their internal state after
a write access.

External Memory Space
The XC164 is capable of using an address space of up to 16 Mbytes. Only parts of this
address space are occupied by internal memory areas or are reserved. A total area of
approximately 12 Mbytes references external memory locations. This external memory
is accessed via the XC164’s external bus interface.
Selectable memory bank sizes are supported: The maximum size of a bank in the
external memory space depends on the number of activated address bits. It can vary
from 64 Kbytes (with A15 … 0 activated) to 12 Mbytes (with A23 … 0 activated). The
logical size of a memory bank and its location in the address space is defined by
programming the respective address window. It can vary from 4 Kbytes to 12 Mbytes.
•
•
•
•
Non-segmented mode:
– 64 Kbytes with A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1
1-bit segmented mode:
– 128 Kbytes with A16 on Port 4
– and A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1
2-bit … 7-bit segmented mode:
– with Ax … A16 on Port 4
– and A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1
8-bit segmented mode:
– 12 Mbytes with A23 … A16 on Port 4
– and A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1
Each bank can be directly addressed via the address bus, while the programmable chip
select signals can be used to select various memory banks.
The XC164 also supports four different bus types:
•
•
•
•
Multiplexed 16-bit Bus with address and data on PORT0 (Default after Reset)
Multiplexed 8-bit Bus with address and data on PORT0/P0L
Demultiplexed 16-bit Bus with address on PORT1 and data on PORT0
Demultiplexed 8-bit Bus with address on PORT1 and data on P0L
Memory model and bus mode are preselected during reset by pin EA and PORT0 pins.
For further details about the external bus configuration and control please refer to
Chapter 9.
External word and byte data can only be accessed via indirect or long 16-bit addressing
modes using one of the four DPP registers. There is no short addressing mode for
external operands. Any word data access is made to an even byte address.
For PEC data transfers the external memory can be accessed independent of the
contents of the DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.
Note: The external memory is not bitaddressable.

Crossing Memory Boundaries
The address space of the XC164 is implicitly divided into equally sized blocks of different
granularity and into logical memory areas. Crossing the boundaries between these
blocks (code or data) or areas requires special attention to ensure that the controller
executes the desired operations.
Memory Areas are partitions of the address space assigned to different kinds of
memory (if provided at all). These memory areas are the SFR areas, the on-chip
program or data RAM areas, the on-chip ROM/Flash/OTP (if available), the on-chip
LXBus-peripherals (if integrated), and the external memory.
Accessing subsequent data locations which belong to different memory areas is no
problem. However, when executing code, the different memory areas must be switched
explicitly via branch instructions. Sequential boundary crossing is not supported and
leads to erroneous results.
Note: Changing from the external memory area to the on-chip RAM area takes place
within segment 0.
Segments are contiguous blocks of 64 Kbytes each. They are referenced via the Code
Segment Pointer CSP for code fetches and via an explicit segment number for data
accesses overriding the standard DPP scheme.
During code fetching, segments are not changed automatically, but rather must be
switched explicitly. The instructions JMPS, CALLS and RETS will do this.
In larger sequential programs, make sure that the highest used code location of a
segment contains an unconditional branch instruction to the respective following
segment to prevent the prefetcher from trying to leave the current segment.
Data Pages are contiguous blocks of 16 Kbytes each. They are referenced via the data
page pointers DPP3 … DPP0 and via an explicit data page number for data accesses
overriding the standard DPP scheme. Each DPP register can select one of the possible
1024 data pages. The DPP register which is used for the current access is selected via
the two upper bits of the 16-bit data address. Therefore, subsequent 16-bit data
addresses which cross the 16-Kbyte data page boundaries will use different data page
pointers, while the physical locations need not be subsequent within memory.

The On-Chip Program Flash Module
The XC164 incorporates 256 Kbytes of embedded Flash memory (starting at location
C0’0000H, see Figure 3-5) for code or constant data. It is operated from the 5 V pad
supply and requires no additional programming voltage.The on-chip voltage generators
require a power stabilization time of approx. 250 µs. The Flash array is organized in eight
sectors of 4 × 8 Kbytes, 1 × 32 Kbytes, and 3 × 64 Kbytes. It combines the advantages
of very fast read accesses with protected but simple writing algorithms for programming
and erasing. The 64-bit code read accesses realize maximum CPU performance by
fetching two double word instructions (or four single word instructions) in a single access
cycle.
Data integrity is enhanced by an error correction code enabling dynamic correction of
single bit errors. Additionally, special margin checks are provided to detect and correct
problematic bits before they lead to actual malfunctions.
All Flash operations are controlled by command sequences (according to the JEDEC
single-power-supply Flash standard). The algorithms for programming and erasing are
executed automatically by the internal Flash state control machine. This avoids
inadvertent destruction of the Flash contents at a reasonably low software overhead.
Command sequences consist of subsequent write (or read) accesses to virtual locations
within the Flash space or the Flash register space. The virtual Flash locations are
defined by special addresses (see command sequence table).
For optimized programming efficiency, paging mode (burst mode) allows 128 bytes to be
loaded into a page buffer with fast CPU accesses before this buffer is programmed into
the Flash with one single store command (2 ms typical1)). Each sector can be erased
separately (200 ms typical1)).
Note: Erased Flash memory cells contain all ‘0’s, contrary to standard EPROMs.
Security is provided by a general read/write protection (complete Flash array) and a
sector-specific2) write protection. The temporary disabling of these hardware protection
features is secured with a password check sequence. The lock information and the
keywords used for the password check sequence are stored apart from the user’s code
and data in a separate security sector (see Section 3.9.4).
A dedicated Flash status register returns global and sector-specific status information.
The correct execution of an operation and the general status of the Flash module can be
checked via the Flash status register at any time.
The physical address range of the Flash module covers byte addresses from 0’0000H to
3’FFFFH. These physical addresses are mapped to the XC164’s program memory area
starting at C0’0000H. Also the separate security sector is mapped to this area. Access
conflicts are avoided by special security commands.
1) For exact parameters please refer to the data sheet.
2) For write protection two 8-Kbyte sectors are combined to one lockable 16-Kbyte section.

In-System-Programming is supported by the automatic program/erase algorithms and
the large page buffer, which may be filled by a programming routine executed out of the
Flash memory itself. During the actual program/erase algorithm Flash read accesses are
stalled. Also completely erased Flash modules can be programmed within the system.
The built-in bootstrap loader can load an initial programming routine via the serial
interface, which in turn can then program the Flash module. This is useful for the initial
programming (virgin Flash) as well as in case of a problem (e.g. power failure) during
reprogramming, when no safety routines are provided.
Note: Accesses to a protected Flash are totally disabled during bootstrap mode. Before
any program/erase operation the protection must be temporarily disabled using
the correct password sequence.

3.9.1
Flash Operating Modes
Two basic operating modes of the on-chip Flash module can be distinguished:
•
•
Standard read mode: code and data can be read from the Flash module
Command mode: the Flash module executes a previously defined command
Standard Read Mode
In standard read mode (the normal operating mode) the Flash memory appears like a
standard ROM, allowing code and data accesses in any addressing mode.
Standard read mode is entered in the following cases:
•
•
•
•
•
After the deactivation of the system reset (after power stabilization)
After execution of the reset command, if no program or erase operation is active
After every completed command execution (program, erase, etc.)
When a command sequence error is detected
When a protection violation is detected (program or erase a protected sector)
Note: Standard read mode is indicated by status bit BUSY = ‘0’.
Standard read mode is terminated when the last command of a command sequence
is decoded and a Flash array operation is started (program or erase). Therefore, all steps
of a command sequence before the last command (in particular the loading of the page
buffer) can be executed by code read from the Flash module itself.
Each read access to the Flash memory activates the automatic error detection. Doublebit errors are detected and indicated, single-bit errors are detected, indicated, and
automatically corrected (see Section 3.9.3).
Note: Single bit errors can be located and avoided by a margin check operation.
Command Mode
All Flash operation except for standard read operations are initiated by command
sequences written to the (virtual) Flash command register (a location within the Flash
space). Protected commands additionally require four passwords for validation.
Command mode is entered after the last command of a command sequence has been
written. For all other command sequences, which activate a Flash array operation such
as erase sector, the command execution and thus the command mode remains active
for a defined time. While in command mode (busy) read accesses to the Flash array are
delayed until the Flash module returns to standard read mode.
Note: Command mode is indicated by status bit BUSY = ‘1’.
Command mode is terminated by the correct execution of the command or by an error
condition as indicated in the status register.
Command sequences not starting Flash operations (e.g. Enter Page Mode) are
executed immediately and command mode is not entered.

System Units (Vol. 1 of 2)
Memory Organization
3.9.2
Command Sequences
All operations besides normal read operations are initiated and controlled by command
sequences written to the Flash state machine. The different write cycles of command
sequences define the intended command, but also establish a fail-safe mechanism to
protect against inadvertent operations. Commands not directly controlling Flash array
operations are single cycle commands for performance reasons, commands affecting
the Flash array require several cycles, commands affecting security issues require a
64-bit security code (four passwords) to be accepted. Command cycles need not be
consecutively received (pauses allowed).
Command sequences can be performed simultaneously to instruction fetch operations,
so instructions for command sequences also can be executed out of the on-chip Flash,
as long as the Flash module is in read mode and not executing an erase or programming
operation. Command sequences for polling the status register are allowed in any state,
also during erase and programming operations, if they are executed out of memory
outside the Flash module. Otherwise, instruction fetching is stalled.
Writing incorrect address and data values or writing them in the improper sequence will
abort the intended operation, reset the module to read mode, and set the sequence error
flag in the status register.
Read Status commands address the separate Flash register space and do not require
command sequences. Register write cycles are only executed with a command cycle.
Programming operations are supported by a 128-byte page buffer which can be
loaded with maximum speed, and is then programmed with one single command
sequence. Programming is done in three steps:
•
•
•
Initialize the page buffer with the Enter Page Mode command (this also defines the
target page address).
Load the page buffer with consecutive Load Page command (the page buffer offset
is incremented automatically).
Program the complete buffer with the Write Page command.
Erase operations clear all bits of a selected sector or of a 256-byte wordline. Erase
command sequences include the address of the target sector or wordline.
After being requested the program/erase operation is executed automatically and
requires no additional user control. The operation itself and its termination are indicated
by status flags. A Power Down request is delayed until the termination of the
program/erase operation. A reset aborts the program/erase operation within the power
stabilization time, indicated by an operation error (OPER) in the Flash status register.
The three tables below summarize the implemented command sequences for:
•
•
•
organizational Flash accesses (Table 3-3),
programming and erasing (Table 3-4),
protection control (Table 3-5).
Note: Each command sequence lists the required address (A = …) and data (D = …).

The Reset To Read command aborts not completed command sequences and clears
the error flags in the status register FSR. The reset command can be issued at any point
during the command sequence, except for parts of the password check sequence. It
does not terminate command mode, i.e. abort busy state.
The Clear Status command clears the error flags and the write status bits PROG and
ERASE (the hardware-controlled indication flags are not affected). The clear status
command is only accepted in Read Mode and otherwise generates a sequence error.
The Read Register command returns the contents of the following registers:
•
•
•
The Flash Status Register FSR providing general Flash status information.
The Protection Configuration Register PROCON indicating the protected sectors.
The Margin Control Register MAR indicating the selected Flash read margin.
The Write Margin Register command is used for verify operations and for usercontrolled refresh operations to identify and correct problematic bits (see Section 3.9.3).

1) While protection is enabled, this command sequence is rejected.
2) Words written in excess of the buffer capacity of 128 bytes are lost.
3) This command sequence is only accepted if page mode has been entered before.
Notes:
WLOC is the first (lowest) location of the 128-byte block to which the 128-byte buffer
shall be written, e.g. C0’AB80H or C0’AC00H (128-byte boundary).
WDAT is the data word which shall be stored in the buffer.
SLOC is the first (lowest) location within the target sector, e.g. C0’6000H for sector 3.
WLA is the first (lowest) location of the 256-byte wordline to be erased, e.g. C1’FF00H
for the uppermost 256 bytes (top of sector 5).
The shown virtual addresses (Cx’xx..H) must point to the Flash space (e.g. C0’00AAH).
The “Read Flash status” command may be executed during command mode in order to
check the BUSY bit of the Flash module.
Caution: Writing to a Flash page (space for the 128-byte buffer) more than once
before erasing may destroy data stored in neighbor cells! This is especially important for
programming algorithms that do not write to sequential locations.
The Enter Page Mode command prepares the programming of a 128-byte page by
clearing the page buffer and initializing the internal word assembly pointer. Bit PAGE in
the status register FSR is set to indicate this. Issuing the Enter Page Mode command
during page mode aborts the current operation and starts a new page operation. The
data written to the page buffer during the aborted page operation are lost. The Enter
Page Mode command also defines the location of the 128-byte page to be programmed.
Note: The Enter Page Mode command is only accepted while protection is disabled.

The Load Page Data Word command adds the accompanying data word to the page
buffer. The offset within the page buffer is determined by the internal buffer pointer which
is incremented after each load operation. Data words written in excess of the buffer
capacity of 128 bytes are lost (no error indicated).
Note: The Load Page Data Word command is only accepted while page mode is active.
The Write Page command writes (programs) the contents of the 128-byte page buffer
(including the error correction code) to the Flash array. The address of the programmed
page is defined by the preceding Enter (Security) Page Mode command.
After the Write Page command the Flash module enters command mode, indicated by
PAGE = 0, PROG = 1, BUSY = 1. Read accesses to the Flash module are delayed until
command mode is terminated. The programming operation itself is executed

1) While protection is enabled, this command sequence is rejected.
Note: A Reset-To-Read command cannot be executed while the 2nd or the 4th password
is expected. In this case the command is taken as a password.
Notes:
SECLOC is the first (lowest) location of the 128-byte block within the security sector to
which the 128-byte buffer shall be written, e.g. C0’0080H or C0’0100H.
SECWLA is the first (lowest) location of the 256-byte security wordline to be erased, e.g.
C0’0100H for the upper 256-byte wordline.
PWn is one of the four passwords building the 64-bit security code (n = 1 … 4).
The shown virtual addresses (Cx’xx..H) must point to the Flash space (e.g. C0’00AAH).
The “Read Flash status” command may be executed during command mode in order to
check the BUSY bit of the Flash module.
The Disable Read Protection command temporarily disables the general Flash read
protection (including the general write protection), indicated by PRODI = 1. Read
protection remains disabled until the execution of the Re-Enable Protection command or
until the next reset.
While read protection is disabled, Flash read accesses including injected OCDS
instructions are executed. Program/Erase operations can be executed as long as the
respective sector is not locked by a sector-specific write protection.

Note: This command sequence can also be used to verify the programmed keywords
before the protection is locked with the confirmation. A wrong keyword is indicated
by bit PROER in the Flash Status Register FSR.
This is a protected command sequence requiring the 64-bit security code (four userdefined passwords) for validation (see Section 3.9.4).
The Disable Sector Write Protection command temporarily disables the sectorspecific write protection for all write-protected sectors, indicated by SUL = 1. Write
protection remains disabled until the execution of the Re-Enable Protection command or
until the next reset.
While write protection is disabled, all Flash operations can be executed as long as the
respective sector is not locked by the general read/write protection.
Note: This command sequence can also be used to verify the programmed keywords
before the protection is locked with the confirmation. A wrong keyword is indicated
by bit PROER in the Flash Status Register FSR.
This is a protected command sequence requiring the 64-bit security code (four userdefined passwords) for validation (see Section 3.9.4).
The Re-Enable Protection command immediately resumes all installed but temporarily
disabled protection features (general read/write protection and/or sector-specific write
protection).
The Erase Security Wordline command clears all bits within the selected wordline
(see SECLOC).
After the Erase Security Wordline command the Flash module enters command mode,
indicated by ERASE = 1, BUSY = 1. Read accesses to the Flash module are delayed
until command mode is terminated. The erase operation itself is executed automatically
and requires no additional user control.
After the erase operation, the protection configuration (including keywords or protection
confirmation code) is valid directly after execution of this command (see Section 3.9.4).
Note: The Erase Security Wordline command is only accepted while protection is
disabled.
The Enter Security Page Mode command prepares the programming of a 128-byte
page within the security sector by clearing the page buffer and initializing the internal
word assembly pointer. Bit PAGE in the status register FSR is set to indicate this. Issuing
the Enter Security Page Mode command during page mode aborts the current operation
and starts a new page operation. The data written to the page buffer during the aborted
page operation are lost. The Enter Security Page Mode command also defines the
location of the 128-byte page to be programmed. Also refer to Section 3.9.4.
Note: The Enter Security Page Mode command is only accepted while any protection is
disabled.

3.9.3
Error Correction and Data Integrity
Data integrity is supported by the Error Correction Code (ECC). This ECC is dynamically
generated during Flash write operations and stored in the Flash array together with the
corresponding data. For each read access the associated 8-bit ECC is fetched together
with the 64-bit read data and is evaluated.
Single bit errors are detected and automatically corrected on-the-fly (during run-time).
Therefore, single bit errors do not affect system operation.
Double bit errors are detected and trigger an Access Fault trap. This prevents
erroneous instructions or data from being used.
Each read error condition is indicated by a dedicated flag (SBER, DBER) in the Flash
Status Register FSR.
The probability of a double bit error (not correctable) is extremely low. Double bit errors
can be avoided by performing a recovery operation after a single bit error has been
detected. For the recovery operation the following steps must be done:
•
•
•
•
Detect the wordline containing the erroneous bit
Store the contents of the wordline temporarily
Erase this wordline
Reprogram the erased wordline (requires two write page operations)
The wordline data copied to the temporary buffer are valid, because a single bit error
during reading is automatically corrected via the ECC. Erasing and programming is done
using standard command sequences.
Verify Operation
The violated wordline can be detected by a verify operation. After clearing bit SBER a
certain area of the Flash memory is read. Since the Flash array always delivers 64-bit
data, the read address can be incremented by 8 after every access, which minimizes the
number of necessary read cycles. After reading the defined area bit SBER indicates if or
if not this area contains the single bit error. The verify algorithm can gradually decrease
the size of the checked area down to the size of a wordline, or can check all wordlines
sequentially.
Refresh Operation
Even single bit errors can be avoided by detecting problematic (moving) bits before they
lead to a read error (and a recovery operation during runtime) and by reprogramming
(refreshing) them in advance. Problematic bits can be detected by combining the verify
operation with margin check control.

Margin Check Control
Flash cells store charges to represent bit levels. If the charge stored in a cell changes
(e.g. due to charge coupling during operations on neighbor cells) the respective bit may
be read wrong. As the charges change slowly this effect can be detected before a bit is
actually read wrong. In this case also a preventive correction (via software) is possible.
A problematic bit (i.e. a bit with a changed charge) can be detected by applying a more
severe comparator margin when reading a Flash location. This margin is controlled by
the Margin Control Register MAR, accessible with the special command sequences
Read/Write Margin (see Table 3-3).
A severe margin is selected by writing the value MARLEVSEL = 0001B or 0100B to
register MAR. A bit that returns a 1 when read with low level margin, while returning a 0
when read with standard margin, represents a problematic bit, called weak zero. A bit
that returns a 0 when read with high level margin, while returning a 1 when read with
standard margin, represents a problematic bit, called weak one. Compare operations
over a certain memory area using standard and severe margins reveal these problematic
bits.
Note: Read operations may directly follow a MAR change operation.

Protection and Security Features
The Flash module provides powerful and flexible protection of data and code against
destruction (i.e. erasure) and undesired modification (i.e. reprogramming) as well as
against undesired read access to Flash contents. Two protection mechanisms can be
activated:
•
•
Sector-specific write protection protects individual sectors against erasing and
programming. This is important for the integrity of boot software and also avoids
modifications of code/data by malfunction or even manipulation.
General read/write protection protects the complete program Flash area against all
accesses from outside the module itself. This includes data read accesses,
instruction fetches (i.e. jumps into the program Flash area), and OCDS operations.
The general read/write protection also disables erasing and programming. Command
sequences and register accesses are executed, however.
Each protection feature is installed by user software. Protection features may be
disabled temporarily to reprogram portions of the Flash memory or to call an external
subroutine. Disabling and re-enabling is done under software control. However, after a
reset all installed protection features are active (enabled) automatically.
By combining the two protection features a flexible protection scheme can be installed
to protect the Flash memory or parts of it against unauthorized programming or erasing
according to the application’s requirements.
Note: Protection is provided for the Program Flash only, there is no protection for the
Program SRAM.
Passwords and Security Code
All protection feature control (install, disable, re-enable) is accomplished through
command sequences similar to the program/erase sequences (see Table 3-5). The two
command sequences that temporarily suspend the protection feature are additionally
secured by a password check sequence (64-bit security code) to ensure maximum
safety against undesired accesses.
During password checking, the four passwords entered via the command sequence are
compared to the four keywords (building the 64-bit security code) stored in the security
sector. If any mismatch is detected the respective protection feature remains active, the
sector(s) remain(s) locked, and a protection error (PROER) is indicated in the Flash
status register. In this case, a new Disable Sector Write Protection command or a
Disable Read Protection command is only accepted after the next system-reset.

The security features are installed by programming the following data (see Figure 3-7)
into the security sector:
•
•
•
Security control bits, selecting the security feature(s) to be installed
64-bit security code (four keywords)
16-bit confirmation code
Note: If any protection is enabled also the security sector itself is protected.
The security control bits can be checked via register PROCON. The same bit-layout
must be used when programming the security control bits.

Note: Each two 8-Kbyte sectors are combined to a
16-Kbyte region that can be jointly locked by
bits SL1 and SL0.
Note: The security configuration can be checked by reading register PROCON.
To modify the security configuration the security sector must be modified.
The 64-bit security code (e.g. 494E’4649’4E45’4F4EH) must be correctly entered for
commands that temporarily disable security features. Any failure to enter all four words
correctly aborts the command and freezes the current security state until the next system
reset.
The 16-bit confirmation code (8AFEH) is required to validate the security feature
installation. The installed configuration can be verified prior to validating it.
The security information and the confirmation code are stored in separate wordlines so
they can be programmed and erased independently from each other.

Each byte of the security information is stored three times and completed with a zerobyte, so each 16-bit word to be stored uses the space of two doublewords (see example
in Figure 3-7). All three copies of a data byte are used for evaluation which provides
extreme reliability.

Whenever the security configuration is modified (installation, modification, deinstallation) the following procedure should be performed:
•
•
•
•
•
Clear confirmation code by erasing security wordline 0.
This uninstalls all protection features (PROIN = 0).
Erase security wordline 1.
Program the intended configuration and keywords into security page 2.
Verify the programmed configuration and keywords.
Program the confirmation code into security page 1.
This installs the new protection features.
Following these steps prevents dead-locks resulting for example from programming
erroneous keywords (e.g. due to power problems during programming) with existing
confirmation code. The security features would be immediately active in this case
whereas the erroneous keywords are not known.
Read/Write Protection Control
Read protection can be activated for code fetches and data reads separately via the
control bits DCF (Disable Code Fetch) and DDF (Disable Data Fetch) in register
IMBCTR. Read accesses are blocked as long as the respective disable flag (DCF, DDF)
is set and read protection is active, indicated by bit RPA (Read Protection Active) in
register IMBCTR. An access to the protected Flash will deliver a dummy value of 1E9BH.
While read protection is disabled (RPA = 0), bits DCF and DDF have no effect on read
accesses.
After a reset starting execution out of the on-chip Flash module bits DCF and DDF are
cleared. This enables all accesses while code is executed from a safe source. Bit DDF
can be set by user software to prevent data reads from the Flash module while still
enabling code execution.
After any other reset (including boot mode) both bits are set (if protection is installed). By
entering the 64-bit security code the read protection can be disabled temporarily by
software executed out of external sources.
Note: Bits DCF and DDF can only be set via software, they cannot be cleared.
Attention: Be sure not to set DCF while executing out of on-chip Flash with read
protection active.
Read/write protection is active (RPA = 1) if it has been installed (RPRO = 1) and is
currently not disabled (PRODI = 0).

Read/Write Protection Handling
After reset, bit RPA indicates if the read/write protection is installed or not. User software
can disable the read/write protection temporarily (indicated by RPA = 0). Bits DCF and
DDF prevent Flash read accesses while RPA = 1. Because DCF and DDF are cleared
after starting from the on-chip Flash memory, the user software is responsible for the
protection handling.
If the read/write protection is enabled, the debug system is disabled to avoid notauthorized accesses to the Flash via the debug interface. Only if explicitly enabled by
user software, the debug interface can be temporarily activated, even if the read/write
protection is enabled.
The following rules ensure a safe read/write protection:
•
•
•
•
no JUMPs or CALLs to external memory locations
no execution of code loaded via any interface
set DCF and DDF before transferring control to external locations (no return!)
leave the debug system disabled
Note: Of course, external code can be executed intermediately while the read/write
protection is disabled. Also the debug interface can be enabled, so protected
devices can be debugged.
However, this should only be done after validation (e.g. by a specific security key),
because read/write protection does not work during these phases.

Operation Control and Error Handling
Command execution is started with the last command of the respective command
sequence and is indicated by the respective state flag (PROG for programming, ERASE
for erasing) as well as by the summarizing BUSY flag. While polling BUSY is sufficient
to detect the end of a command execution it is recommended to check the error flags
afterwards to find erroneous operations.
The following general structure for command execution is recommended:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Clear status
Write command sequence to Flash module
Ensure correct sequence by checking bits SQER and PROER
If error: clear flags via “Clear Status” or “Reset” and act upon it (e.g. with a retry
operation)
Check for the correct command by polling bits PROG and ERASE
Poll BUSY to determine the command termination
Check error flags
The error bits in status register FSR are registered bits (flipflops) and indicate a fault
condition as long as the error bit is set. It is therefore necessary to clear the error flags
by commands.

Reset and Power-Down Processing
Upon a reset the Flash module resets its state machine and enters the standard read
mode after the internal voltages have stabilized. The internal voltages need to ramp up
(e.g. after power down) or to ramp down (e.g. after an interrupted programming or erase
operation). This power stabilization phase is indicated by flag BUSY. Accesses during
the power stabilization phase are delayed until power has stabilized.
The Flash module is requested to ramp down its internal voltages by entering
Power Down mode, Sleep mode or Idle mode (with Flash off), by disabling it via
SYSCON3, or by executing a software reset. After completing execution and termination
of the running operation (including program or erase operation) the request is
acknowledged and the CPU can complete the intended action.
Note: The delay caused by the stabilization phase must also be considered when
calculating delays for wake-up from idle, sleep, or power down states.

Program Memory Control
The internal program memory block IMB consists of an interface part (program memory
interface PMI) to control the accesses to the memories and the following memory blocks:
•
•
256 Kbytes program Flash memory, starting at address C0’0000H
(including error correction ECC)
6 Kbytes program SRAM, starting at address E0’0000H
(second access path at address F8’0000H)
The Flash memory block and the program SRAM block can contain the program code,
but can also store data, which can be accessed by the CPU.
Note: The access to addresses, which are not explicitly mentioned as valid
memory/register area is forbidden.

Figure 3-8 shows the main blocks of the IMB, specific control signals are not mentioned
for simplicity reasons.
The behavior of the memories is adaptable to the requirements of the application. If the
program is executed from the on-chip Flash memory or from the internal SRAM, the
latencies have to be identical in some cases. To solve this problem, the access times of
the SRAM can be programmed to be equal to the Flash timings. In the best case, the
internal SRAM will allow single cycle accesses. A programmable wait state generation
logic is part of the program memory interface (PMI) inside the IMB.
The number of access cycles can be programmed independently for the SRAM and the
Flash memory.
3.10.1
Flash Memory Access
The internal functional structure of the interface between the PMU/PMI and the Flash
memory is shown in Figure 3-9. The access is done in two phases:
•
•
The Flash array delivers the accessed data within a fixed time of 50 ns maximum.
The duration of the first access phase (1+WS) must cover the Flash Array’s access
time. Waitstates must be selected accordingly (bitfield WSFLASH in register
IMBCTRL).
Example: Operating at 40 MHz results in a cycle time of 25 ns. Therefore, the access
phase requires 2 cycles, so one waitstate must be selected (1+1).
The error correction (ECC) and the PMU require one additional clock cycle each.
The CPU receives requested data after 1+WS+2 cycles (4 cycles if 1 WS is selected).
However, this delay only becomes effective for an isolated access (read from a nonlinear address). A prefetching mechanism overlaps phase 1 of a subsequent access with
phase 2 of the previous access, so the sustained performance for linear accesses (e.g.
code fetches) is considerably higher.
Flash accesses can be serviced every 1+WS cycles, because the Flash array itself only
requires phase 1.

Flash - PMI Structure
Note: The read-only Flash status registers can be accessed starting at address
FF’F000H. Any write access to this address range must be avoided.
Example for Flash Accesses with one Wait State (WS = 1)
After the first access (e.g. after a jump to the first address delivered by the CPU), four
clock cycles are necessary to fetch the corresponding data (1+1+2).
This leads to the following sequence of clock cycles between the delivery of subsequent
data words: 4 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - …
In the case that the CPU requests another address than the one proposed by the
prefetcher (e.g. in case of a jump), the Flash address unit immediately changes to the
new address and begins a new sequence (4 - …).
Note: If the Flash access phase takes more than two cycles (more than 1 WS), prefetch
accesses make no sense, so the Flash prefetching mechanism is disabled.

Program SRAM Access
The internal functional structure of the interface between the PMU/PMI and the PSRAM
is shown in Figure 3-10. The access is done in two phases:
•
•
The PSRAM module delivers the accessed data within one cycle. Waitstates can be
selected to emulate accesses to a Flash memory.
The PMU requires one additional clock cycle. One more clock cycle is inserted if
either Flash timing is selected (bit WSRAM in register IMBCTRL), or the accesses
use the EPSRAM area.
The CPU receives requested data after the following access delays:
•
•
•
1+1 cycles with standard PSRAM timing
1+2 cycles with EPSRAM timing (using the emulation PSRAM area)
1+WS+2 cycles with Flash timing (WSRAM = 1).
However, this delay only becomes effective for an isolated access (read from a nonlinear address). A prefetching mechanism overlaps phase 1 of a subsequent access with
phase 2 of the previous access, so the sustained performance for linear accesses (e.g.
code fetches) is considerably higher.

IMB Control Functions
Wait State Generation
The generation of wait states is handled by a wait state unit, which indicates when the
requested data (or instruction word) is available. The address window for the Flash
memory starts at address C0’0000H and selects an address range of 2 Mbytes.
The reset value defines a two cycle Flash memory access. The program SRAM can be
accessed with a one cycle read.
IMB Control Register
Register IMBCTR contains the bitfields controlling the wait state generation for the Flash
memory and the other IMB memory blocks. One wait state represents one clock cycle.
The wait states have to be introduced in order to adapt the memory access time in clock
cycles (depending on the clock frequency) to the Flash access time. PSRAM can be
accessed using the Flash timing, e.g. for emulation purposes.
This register is protected against undesired modification by the register security
mechanism. This register is only reset by a hardware reset, a SW reset or a WDT reset
do not change the bits.

Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Basic tasks of the Central Processing Unit (CPU) are to fetch and decode instructions,
to supply operands for the Arithmetic and Logic unit (ALU) and the Multiply and
Accumulate unit (MAC), to perform operations on these operands in the ALU and MAC,
and to store the previously calculated results. As the CPU is the main engine of the
XC164 microcontroller, it is also affected by certain actions of the peripheral subsystem.
Because a five-stage processing pipeline (plus 2-stage fetch pipeline) is implemented in
the XC164, up to five instructions can be processed in parallel. Most instructions of the
XC164 are executed in one single clock cycle due to this parallelism.
This chapter describes how the pipeline works for sequential and branch instructions in
general, and the hardware provisions which have been made to speed up execution of
jump instructions in particular. General instruction timing is described, including standard
timing, as well as exceptions.
While internal memory accesses are normally performed by the CPU itself, external
peripheral or memory accesses are performed by a particular on-chip External Bus
Controller (EBC) which is invoked automatically by the CPU whenever a code or data
address refers to the external address space.
Whenever possible, the CPU continues operating while an external memory access is in
progress. If external data are required but are not yet available, or if a new external
memory access is requested by the CPU before a previous access has been completed,
the CPU will be held by the EBC until the request can be satisfied. The EBC is described
in a separate chapter.
The on-chip peripheral units of the XC164 work nearly independently of the CPU with a
separate clock generator. Data and control information are interchanged between the
CPU and these peripherals via Special Function Registers (SFRs).
Whenever peripherals need a non-deterministic CPU action, an on-chip Interrupt
Controller compares all pending peripheral service requests against each other and
prioritizes one of them. If the priority of the current CPU operation is lower than the
priority of the selected peripheral request, an interrupt will occur.
There are two basic types of interrupt processing:
•
•
Standard interrupt processing forces the CPU to save the current program status
and return address on the stack before branching to the interrupt vector jump table.
PEC interrupt processing steals only one machine cycle from the current CPU
activity to perform a single data transfer via the on-chip Peripheral Event Controller
(PEC).
System errors detected during program execution (hardware traps) and external nonmaskable interrupts are also processed as standard interrupts with a very high priority.
In contrast to other on-chip peripherals, there is a closer conjunction between the
watchdog timer and the CPU. If enabled, the watchdog timer expects to be serviced by

the CPU within a programmable period of time, otherwise it will reset the chip. Thus, the
watchdog timer is able to prevent the CPU from going astray when executing erroneous
code. After reset, the watchdog timer starts counting automatically but, it can be disabled
via software, if desired.
In addition to its normal operation state, the CPU has the following particular states:
•
•
•
•
Reset state: Any reset (hardware, software, watchdog) forces the CPU into a
predefined active state.
IDLE state: The clock signal to the CPU itself is switched off, while the clocks for the
on-chip peripherals keep running.
SLEEP state: All of the on-chip clocks are switched off (RTC clock selectable),
external interrupt inputs are enabled.
POWER DOWN state: All of the on-chip clocks are switched off (RTC clock
selectable), all inputs are disregarded.
Transition to an active CPU state is forced by an interrupt (if in IDLE or SLEEP mode) or
by a reset (if in POWER DOWN mode).
The IDLE, SLEEP, POWER DOWN, and RESET states can be entered by specific
XC164 system control instructions.
A set of Special Function Registers is dedicated to the CPU core (CSFRs):

The CPU also uses CSFRs to access the General Purpose Registers (GPRs). Since all
CSFRs can be controlled by any instruction capable of addressing the SFR/CSFR
memory space, there is no need for special system control instructions.
However, to ensure proper processor operation, certain restrictions on the user access
to some CSFRs must be imposed. For example, the instruction pointer (CSP, IP) cannot
be accessed directly at all. These registers can only be changed indirectly via branch
instructions. Registers PSW, SP, and MDC can be modified not only explicitly by the
programmer, but also implicitly by the CPU during normal instruction processing.
Note: Note that any explicit write request (via software) to an CSFR supersedes a
simultaneous modification by hardware of the same register.

Reading bytes from word CSFRs is a non-critical operation. Any write operation to a

Attention: Reserved CSFR bits must not be modified explicitly, and will always
supply a read value of 0. If a byte/word access is preferred by the

otherwise. Arithmetic and Logic Unit and Multiply and Accumulate Unit handle

Central Processing Unit (CPU)
In general the instructions move through 7 pipeline stages, where each stage processes
its individual task (see Section 4.3 for a summary):
•
•
the 2-stage fetch pipeline prefetches instructions from program memory and stores
them into an instruction FIFO
the 5-stage processing pipeline executes each instruction stored in the instruction
FIFO
Because passing through one pipeline stage takes at least one clock cycle, any isolated
instruction takes at least five clock cycles to be completed. Pipelining, however, allows
parallel (i.e. simultaneous) processing of up to five instructions (with branches up to six
instructions). Therefore, most of the instructions appear to be processed during one
clock cycle as soon as the pipeline has been filled once after reset.
The pipelining increases the average instruction throughput considered over a certain
period of time.
4.2
Instruction Fetch and Program Flow Control
The Instruction Fetch Unit (IFU) prefetches and preprocesses instructions to provide a
continuous instruction flow. The IFU can fetch simultaneously at least two instructions
via a 64-bit wide bus from the Program Management Unit (PMU). The prefetched
instructions are stored in an instruction FIFO.
Preprocessing of branch instructions enables the instruction flow to be predicted. While
the CPU is in the process of executing an instruction fetched from the FIFO, the
prefetcher of the IFU starts to fetch a new instruction at a predicted target address from
the PMU. The latency time of this access is hidden by the execution of the instructions
which have already been buffered in the FIFO. Even for a non-sequential instruction
execution, the IFU can generally provide a continuous instruction flow. The IFU contains
two pipeline stages: the Prefetch Stage and the Fetch Stage.
During the prefetch stage, the Branch Detection and Prediction Logic analyzes up to
three prefetched instructions stored in the first Instruction Buffer (can hold up to six
instructions). If a branch is detected, then the IFU starts to fetch the next instructions
from the PMU according to the prediction rules. After having been analyzed, up to three
instructions are stored in the second Instruction Buffer (can hold up to three instructions)
which is the input register of the Fetch Stage.
In the case of an incorrectly predicted instruction flow, the instruction fetch pipeline is
bypassed to reduce the number of dead cycles.

On the Fetch Stage, the prefetched instructions are stored in the instruction FIFO. The
Branch Folding Unit (BFU) allows processing of branch instructions in parallel with
preceding instructions. To achieve this the BFU preprocesses and reformats the branch
instruction. First, the BFU defines (calculates) the absolute target address. This address
— after being combined with branch condition and branch attribute bits — is stored in
the same FIFO step as the preceding instruction. The target address is also used to
prefetch the next instructions.
For the Processing Pipeline, both instructions are fetched from the FIFO again and are
executed in parallel. If the instruction flow was predicted incorrectly (or FIFO is empty),
the two stages of the IFU can be bypassed.
Note: Pipeline behavior in case of a incorrectly predicted instruction flow is described in
the following sections.

Correctly Predicted Instruction Flow
Table 4-2 shows the continuous execution of instructions, assuming a 0-waitstate1)
program memory. In this example, most of the instructions are executed in one CPU
cycle while instruction In+6 takes two CPU cycles (general example for multicycle
instructions). The diagram shows the sequential instruction flow through the different
pipeline stages. Figure 4-3 shows the corresponding program memory section.
The instructions for the processing pipeline are fetched from the Instruction FIFO while
the IFU prefetches the next instructions to fill the FIFO. As long as the instruction flow is
correctly predicted by the IFU, both processes are independent.

Program Memory Section for Correctly Predicted Flow
Incorrectly Predicted Instruction Flow
If the CPU detects that the IFU made an incorrect prediction of the instruction flow, then
the pipeline stages and the Instruction FIFO containing the wrong prefetched instructions
are canceled. The entire instruction fetch is restarted at the correct point of the program.
Table 4-3 shows the restarted execution of instructions, assuming a 0-waitstate program
memory. Figure 4-4 shows the corresponding program memory section.
During the cycle Tn, the CPU detects an incorrectly prediction case which leads to a
canceling of the pipeline. The new address is transferred to the PMU in Tn+1 which
delivers the first data in the next cycle Tn+2. But, the target instruction crosses the 64-bit
memory boundary and a second fetch in Tn+3 is required to get the entire 32-bit
instruction. In Tn+4, the Prefetch Buffer contains two 32-bit instructions while the first
instruction Im is directly forwarded to the Decode stage.
The prefetcher is now restarted and prefetches further instructions. In Tn+5, the
instruction Im+1 is forwarded from the Fetch Instruction Buffer directly to the Decode
stage as well. The Fetch row shows all instructions in the Fetch Instruction Buffer and
the instructions fetched from the Instruction FIFO. The instruction Im+3 is the first
instruction fetched from the FIFO during Tn+6. During the same cycle, instruction Im+2 was
still forwarded from the Fetch Instruction Buffer to the Decode stage.

Instruction Processing Pipeline
The XC164 uses five pipeline stages to execute an instruction. All instructions pass
through each of the five stages of the instruction processing pipeline. The pipeline stages
are listed here together with the 2 stages of the fetch pipeline:
1st -> PREFETCH: This stage prefetches instructions from the PMU in the predicted
order. The instructions are preprocessed in the branch detection unit to detect branches.
The prediction logic decides if the branches are assumed to be taken or not.
2nd -> FETCH: The instruction pointer of the next instruction to be fetched is calculated
according to the branch prediction rules. For zero-cycle branch execution, the Branch
Folding Unit preprocesses and combines detected branches with the preceding
instructions. Prefetched instructions are stored in the instruction FIFO. At the same time,
instructions are transported out of the instruction FIFO to be executed in the instruction
processing pipeline.
3rd -> DECODE: The instructions are decoded and, if required, the register file is
accessed to read the GPR used in indirect addressing modes.
4th -> ADDRESS: All the operand addresses are calculated. Register SP is
decremented or incremented for all instructions which implicitly access the system stack.
5th -> MEMORY: All the required operands are fetched.
6th -> EXECUTE: An ALU or MAC-Unit operation is performed on the previously fetched
operands. The condition flags are updated. All explicit write operations to CPU-SFRs
and all auto-increment/auto-decrement operations of GPRs used as indirect address
pointers are performed.
7th -> WRITE BACK: All external operands and the remaining operands within the
internal DPRAM space are written back. Operands located in the internal SRAM are
buffered in the Write Back Buffer.
Specific so-called injected instructions are generated internally to provide the time
needed to process instructions requiring more than one CPU cycle for processing. They
are automatically injected into the decode stage of the pipeline, then they pass through
the remaining stages like every standard instruction. Program interrupt, PEC transfer,
and OCE operations are also performed by means of injected instructions. Although
these internally injected instructions will not be noticed in reality, they help to explain the
operation of the pipeline.
The performance of the CPU (pipeline) is decreased by bandwidth limitations (same
resource is accessed by different stages) and data dependencies between instructions.
The XC164’s CPU has dedicated hardware to detect and to resolve different kinds of
dependencies. Some of those dependencies are described in the following section.
Because up to five different instructions are processed simultaneously, additional
hardware has been dedicated to deal with dependencies which may exist between
instructions in different pipeline stages. This extra hardware supports ‘forwarding’ of the

operand read and write values and resolves most of the possible conflicts — such as
multiple usage of buses — in a time optimized way without performance loss. This
makes the pipeline unnoticeable for the user in most cases. However, there are some
rare cases in which the pipeline requires attention by the programmer. In these cases,
the delays caused by the pipeline conflicts can be used for other instructions to optimize
performance.
Note: The XC164 has a fully interlocked pipeline, which means that these conflicts do
not cause any malfunction. Instruction re-ordering is only required for performance
reasons.
The following examples describe the pipeline behavior in special cases and give
principle rules to improve the performance by re-ordering the execution of instructions.

Pipeline Conflicts Using General Purpose Registers
The GPRs are the working registers of the CPU and there are a lot of possible
dependencies between instructions using GPRs. A high-speed five-port register file
prevents bandwidth conflicts. Dedicated hardware is implemented to detect and resolve
the data dependencies. Special forwarding busses are used to forward GPR values from
one pipeline stage to another. In most cases, this allows the execution of instructions
without any delay despite of data dependencies.

However, if a GPR is used for indirect addressing the address pointer (i.e. the GPR) will

4.3.2
Pipeline Conflicts Using Indirect Addressing Modes
In the case of read accesses using indirect addressing modes, the Address Generation
Unit uses a speculative addressing mechanism. The read data path to one of the
different memory areas (DPRAM, DSRAM, etc.) is selected according to a history table
before the address is decoded. This history table has one entry for each of the GPRs.
The entries store the information of the last accessed memory area using the
corresponding GPR. In the case of an incorrect prediction of the memory area, the read
access must be restarted.
It is recommended that the GPRs used for indirect addressing always point to the same
memory area. If an updated GPR points to a different memory area, the next read
operation will access the wrong memory area. The read access must be repeated, which
leads to pipeline stalls.

Pipeline Conflicts Due to Memory Bandwidth
Memory bandwidth conflicts can occur if instructions in the pipeline access the same
memory area at the same time. Special access mechanisms are implemented to
minimize conflicts. The DPRAM of the CPU has two independent read/write ports; this
allows parallel read and write operation without delays. Write accesses to the DSRAM
can be buffered in a Write Back Buffer until read accesses are finished.
All instructions except the CoXXX instructions can read only one memory operand per
cycle. A conflict between the read and one write access cannot occur because the
DPRAM has two independent read/write ports. Only other pipeline stall conditions can
generate a DPRAM bandwidth conflict. The DPRAM is a synchronous pipelined
memory. The read access starts with the valid addresses on the address stage. The data
are delivered in the Memory stage. If a memory read access is stalled in the Memory
stage and the following instruction on the Address stage tries to start a memory read, the
new read access must be delayed as well. But, this conflict is hidden by an already
existing stall of the pipeline.

The CoXXX instructions are the only instructions able to read two memory operands per
cycle. A conflict between the two read and one pending write access can occur if all three
operands are located in the DPRAM area. This is especially important for performance
in the case of executing a filter routine. One of the operands should be located in the
DSRAM to guarantee a single-cycle execution of the CoXXX instructions.

Pipeline Conflicts Caused by CPU-SFR Updates
CPU-SFRs control the CPU functionality and behavior. Changes and updates of CSFRs
influence the instruction flow in the pipeline. Therefore, special care is required to ensure
that instructions in the pipeline always work with the correct CSFR values. CSFRs are
updated late on the EXECUTE stage of the pipeline. Meanwhile, without conflict
detection, the instructions in the DECODE, ADDRESS, and MEMORY stages would still
work without updated register values. The CPU detects conflict cases and stalls the
pipeline to guarantee a correct execution. For performance reasons, the CPU
differentiates between different classes of CPU-SFRs. The flow of instructions through
the pipeline can be improved by following the given rules used for instruction re-ordering.
There are three classes of CPU-SFRs:
•
•
•
CSFRs not generating pipeline conflicts (ONES, ZEROS, MCW)
CSFR result registers updated late in the EXECUTE stage, causing one stall cycle
CSFRs affecting the whole CPU or the pipeline, causing canceling
CSFR Result Registers
The CSFR result registers MDH, MDL, MSW, MAH, MAL, and MRW of the ALU and
MAC-Unit are updated late in the EXECUTE stage of the pipeline. If an instruction
(except CoSTORE) accesses explicitly these registers in the memory stage, the value
cannot be forwarded. The instruction must be stalled for one cycle on the MEMORY
stage.

Some CSFRs affect the whole CPU or the pipeline before the Memory stage. The CPUSFRs CPUCON1, CP, SP, STKUN, STKOV, VECSEG, TFR, and PSW affect the overall
CPU function, while the CPU-SFRs IDX0, IDX1, QX1, QX0, DPP0, DPP1, DPP2, and
DPP3 only affect the DECODE, ADDRESS, and MEMORY stage when they are
modified explicitly. In this case the pipeline behavior depends on the instruction and
addressing mode used to modify the CSFR.
In the case of modification of these CSFRs by “POP CSFR” or by instructions using the
reg,#data16 addressing mode, a special mechanism is implemented to improve
performance during the initialization.
For further explanation, the instruction which modifies the CSFR can be called
“instruction_modify_CSFR”. This special case is detected in the DECODE stage when
the instruction_modify_CSFR enters the processing pipeline. Further on, instructions
described in the following list are held in the DECODE stage (all other instructions are
not held):
•
•
•
•
Instructions using long addressing mode (mem)
Instructions using indirect addressing modes ([Rw], [Rw+]…), except JMPI and CALLI
ENWDT, DISWDT, EINIT
All CoXXX instructions
If the CPUCON1, CP, SP, STKUN, STKOV, VECSEG, TFR, or the PSW are modified
and the instruction_modify_CSFR reaches the EXECUTE stage, the pipeline is
canceled. The modification affects the entire pipeline and the instruction prefetch. A
clean cancel and restart mechanism is required to guarantee a correct instruction flow.
In case of modification of IDX0, IDX1, QX1, QX0, DPP0, DPP1, DPP2, or DPP3 only the
DECODE, ADDRESS, and MEMORY stages are affected and the pipeline needs not to
be canceled. The modification does not affect the instructions in the ADDRESS,
MEMORY stage because they are not using this resource. Other kinds of instructions are
held in the DECODE stage until the CSFR is modified.
The following example shows a case in which the pipeline is stalled. The instruction
“MOV R6, R1” after the “MOV IDX1, #12” instruction which modifies the CSFR will be
held in DECODE Stage until the IDX1 register is updated. The next example shows an
optimized initialization routine.

mechanism guarantees the correct instruction flow.
A possible explicit write-operation to this kind of CSFRs is detected on the MEMORY
stage of the pipeline. The following instructions on the ADDRESS and DECODE Stage
are stalled. If the instruction reaches the EXECUTE stage, the entire pipeline and the

CPU Configuration Registers
The CPU configuration registers select a number of general features and behaviors of
the XC164’s CPU core. In general, these registers must not be modified by application
software (exceptions will be documented, e.g. in an errata sheet).
Note: The CPU configuration registers are protected by the register security mechanism
after the EINIT instruction has been executed.

Use of General Purpose Registers
The CPU uses several banks of sixteen dedicated registers R0, R1, R2, … R15, called
General Purpose Registers (GPRs), which can be accessed in one CPU cycle. The
GPRs are the working registers of the arithmetic and logic units and many also serve as
address pointers for indirect addressing modes.
The register banks are accessed via the 5-port register file providing the high access
speed required for the CPU’s performance. The register file is split into three
independent physical register banks. There are two types of register banks:
•
•
Two local register banks which are a part of the register file
A global register bank which is memory-mapped and cached in the register file

Bitfield BANK in register PSW selects which of the three physical register banks is
activated. The selected bank can be changed explicitly by any instruction which writes
to the PSW, or implicitly by a RETI instruction, an interrupt or hardware trap. In case of
an interrupt, the selection of the register bank is configured via registers BNKSELx in the
Interrupt Controller ITC. Hardware traps always use the global register bank.
The local register banks are built of dedicated physical registers, while the global register
bank represents a cache. The banks of the memory-mapped GPRs (global bank) are
located in the internal DPRAM. One bank uses a block of 16 consecutive words. A
Context Pointer (CP) register determines the base address of the current selected bank.
To provide the required access speed, the GPRs located in the DPRAM are cached in
the 5-port register file (only one memory-mapped GPR bank can be cached at the time).
If the global register bank is activated, the cache will be validated before further
instructions are executed. After validation, all further accesses to the GPRs are
redirected to the global register bank.

GPR Addressing Modes
Because the GPRs are the working registers and are accessed frequently, there are
three possible ways to access a register bank:
•
•
•
Short GPR Address (mnemonic: Rw or Rb)
Short Register Address (mnemonic: reg or bitoff)
Long Memory Address (mnemonic: mem), for the global bank only
Short GPR Addresses specify the register offset within the current register bank
(selected via bitfield BANK). Short 4-bit GPR addresses can access all sixteen registers,
short 2-bit addresses (used by some instructions) can access the lower four registers.
Depending on whether a relative word (Rw) or byte (Rb) GPR address is specified, the
short GPR address is either multiplied by two (Rw) or not (Rb) before it is used to
physically access the register bank. Thus, both byte and word GPR accesses are
possible in this way.
Note: GPRs used as indirect address pointers are always accessed wordwise.
For the local register banks the resulting offset is used directly, for the global register
bank the resulting offset is logically added to the contents of register CP which points to
the memory location of the base of the current global register bank (see Figure 4-7).
Short 8-Bit Register Addresses within a range from F0H to FFH interpret the four least
significant bits as short 4-bit GPR addresses, while the four most significant bits are
ignored. The respective physical GPR address is calculated in the same way as for short
4-bit GPR addresses. For single bit GPR accesses, the GPR’s word address is
calculated in the same way. The accessed bit position within the word is specified by a
separate additional 4-bit value.

24-Bit Memory Addresses can be directly used to access GPRs located in the DPRAM
(not applicable for local register banks). In case of a memory read access, a hit detection
logic checks if the accessed memory location is cached in the global register bank. In
case of a cache hit, an additional global register bank read access is initiated. The data
that is read from cache will be used and the data that is read from memory will be
discarded. This leads to a delay of one CPU cycle (MOV R4, mem
[CP ≤ mem ≤ CP + 31]). In case of a memory write access, the hit detection logic
determines a cache hit in advance. Nevertheless, the address conversion needs one
additional CPU cycle. The value is directly written into the global register bank without
further delay (MOV mem, R4).
Note: The 24-bit GPR addressing mode is not recommended because it requires an
extra cycle for the read and write access.

Context Switching
When a task scheduler of an operating system activates a new task or an interrupt
service routine is called or terminated, the working context (i.e. the registers) of the left
task must be saved and the working context of the new task must be restored. The CPU
context can be changed in two ways:
•
•
Switching the selected register bank
Switching the context of the global register
Switching the Selected Physical Register Bank
By updating bitfield BANK in register PSW the active register bank is switched
immediately. It is possible to switch between the current memory-mapped GPR bank
cached in the global register bank (BANK = 00B), local register bank 1 (BANK = 10B),
and local register bank 2 (BANK = 11B).
In case of an interrupt service, the bank switch can be automatically executed by
updating bitfield BANK from registers BNKSELx in the interrupt controller. By executing
a RETI instruction, bitfield BANK will automatically be restored and the context will
switched to the original register bank.
The switch between the three physical register banks of the register file can also be
executed by writing to bitfield BANK. Because of pipeline dependencies an explicit
change of register PSW must cancel the pipeline.

Context Switch by Changing the Physical Register Bank
After a switch to a local register bank, the new bank is immediately available. After
switching to the global register bank, the cached memory-mapped GPRs must be valid
before any further instructions can be executed. If the global register bank is not valid at
this time (in case if the context switch process has been interrupted), the cache
validation process is repeated automatically.

Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Switching the Context of the Global Register Bank
The contents of the global register bank are switched by changing the base address of
the memory-mapped GPR bank. The base address is given by the contents of the
Context Pointer (CP).
After the CP has been updated, a state machine starts to store the old contents of the
global register bank and to load the new one. The store and load algorithm is executed
in nineteen CPU cycles: the execution of the cache validation process takes sixteen
cycles plus three cycles to stall an instruction execution to avoid pipeline conflicts upon
the completion of the validation process. The context switch process has two phases:
•
•
Store phase: The contents of the global register bank is stored back into the DPRAM
by executing eight injected STORE instructions. After the last STORE instruction the
contents of the global register bank are invalidated.
Load phase: The global register bank is loaded with the new context by executing
eight injected LOAD instructions. After the last LOAD instruction the contents of the
global register bank are validated.
The code execution is stopped until the global register bank is valid again. A hardware
interrupt can occur during the validation process. The way the validation process is
completed depends on the type of register bank selected for this interrupt:
•
•
If the interrupt also uses a global register bank the validation process is finished
before executing the service routine (see Figure 4-9).
If the interrupt uses a local register bank the validation process is interrupted and the
service routine is executed immediately (see Figure 4-10). After switching back to
the global register bank, the validation process is finished:
– If the interrupt occurred during the store phase, the entire validation process is
restarted from the very beginning.
– If the interrupt occurred during the load phase, only the load phase is repeated.
If a local-bank interrupt routine (Task B in Figure 4-11) is again interrupted by a globalbank interrupt (Task C), the suspended validation process must be finished before code
of Task C can be executed. This means that the validation process of Task A does not
affect the interrupt latency of Task B but the latency of Task C.
Note: If Task C would immediately interrupt Task A, the register bank validation process
of Task A would be finished first. The worst case interrupt latency is identical in
both cases (see Figure 4-9 and Figure 4-11).

cp
[11:1]
rw
Modifiable Portion of Register CP
Specifies the (word) base address of the current
global (memory-mapped) register bank.
When writing a value to register CP with bits CP[11:9]
= 000B, bits CP[11:10] are set to 11B by hardware.
Note: It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the physical GPR address specified via
CP register plus short GPR address is always an internal DPRAM location. If this
condition is not met, unexpected results may occur. Do not set CP below the
internal DPRAM start address.
The XC164 switches the complete memory-mapped GPR bank with a single instruction.
After switching, the service routine executes within its own separate context.
The instruction “SCXT CP, #New_Bank” pushes the value of the current context pointer
(CP) into the system stack and loads CP with the immediate value “New_Bank”, which
selects a new register bank. The service routine may now use its “own registers”. This
memory register bank is preserved when the service routine terminates, i.e. its contents
are available on the next call.
Before returning from the service routine (RETI), the previous CP is simply popped from
the system stack which returns the registers to the original bank.
Note: Due to the internal instruction pipeline, a write operation to the CP register stalls
the instruction flow until the register file context switch is really executed. The
instruction immediately following the instruction that updates CP register can use
the new value of the changed CP.

Code Addressing
The XC164 provides a total addressable memory space of 16 Mbytes. This address
space is arranged as 256 segments of 64 Kbytes each. A dedicated 24-bit code address
pointer is used to access the memories for instruction fetches. This pointer has two parts:
an 8-bit code segment pointer CSP and a 16-bit offset pointer called Instruction Pointer
(IP). The concatenation of the CSP and IP results directly in a correct 24-bit physical
memory address.

Figure 4-12 Addressing via the Code Segment and Instruction Pointer
The Code Segment Pointer CSP selects the code segment being used at run-time to
access instructions. The lower 8 bits of register CSP select one of up 256 segments of
64 Kbytes each, while the higher 8 bits are reserved for future use. The reset value is
specified by the contents of the VECSEG register (Section 5.3).
Note: Register CSP can only be read but cannot be written by data operations.
In segmented memory mode (default after reset), register CSP is modified either
directly by JMPS and CALLS instructions, or indirectly via the stack by RETS and RETI
instructions.
In non-segmented memory mode (selected by setting bit SGTDIS in register
CPUCON1), CSP is fixed to the segment of the instruction that disabled segmentation.
Modification by inter-segment CALLs or RETurns is no longer possible.
For processing an accepted interrupt or a TRAP, register CSP is automatically loaded
with the segment of the vector table (defined in register VECSEG).

return instruction. IP is implicitly updated by the CPU for branch instructions and after
instruction fetch operations.

Data Addressing
The Address Data Unit (ADU) contains two independent arithmetic units to generate,
calculate, and update addresses for data accesses, the Standard Address Generation
Unit (SAGU) and the DSP Address Generation Unit (DAGU). The ADU performs the
following major tasks:
•
•
•
•
Standard Address Generation (SAGU)
DSP Address Generation (DAGU)
Data Paging (SAGU)
Stack Handling (SAGU)
The SAGU supports linear arithmetic for the indirect addressing modes and also
generates the address in case of all other short and long addressing modes.
The DAGU contains an additional set of address pointers and offset registers which are
used in conjunction with the CoXXX instructions only.
The CPU provides a lot of powerful addressing modes (short, long, indirect) for word,
byte, and bit data accesses. The different addressing modes use different formats and
have different scopes.
4.7.1
Short Addressing Modes
Short addressing modes allow access to the GPR, SFR or bit-addressable memory
space. All of these addressing modes use an offset (8/4/2 bits) together with an implicit
base address to specify a 24-bit physical address:

Physical Address = Base Address + ∆ × Short Address
Note: ∆ is 1 for byte GPRs, ∆ is 2 for word GPRs.
Rw, Rb: Specifies direct access to any GPR in the currently active context (global
register bank or local register bank). Both ‘Rw’ and ‘Rb’ require four bits in the instruction
format. The base address of the global register bank is determined by the contents of
register CP. ‘Rw’ specifies a 4-bit word GPR address, ‘Rb’ specifies a 4-bit byte GPR
address within a local register bank or relative to (CP).
reg: Specifies direct access to any (E)SFR or GPR in the currently active context (global
or local register bank). The ‘reg’ value requires eight bits in the instruction format. Short
‘reg’ addresses in the range from 00H to EFH always specify (E)SFRs. In that case, the
factor ‘∆’ equates 2 and the base address is 00’FE00H for the standard SFR area or
00’F000H for the extended ESFR area. The ‘reg’ accesses to the ESFR area require a
preceding EXT*R instruction to switch the base address. Depending on the opcode,
either the total word (for word operations) or the low byte (for byte operations) of an SFR
can be addressed via ‘reg’. Note that the high byte of an SFR cannot be accessed via
the ‘reg’ addressing mode. Short ‘reg’ addresses in the range from F0H to FFH always
specify GPRs. In that case, only the lower four bits of ‘reg’ are significant for physical
address generation and, therefore, it is identical to the address generation described for
the ‘Rb’ and ‘Rw’ addressing modes.
bitoff: Specifies direct access to any word in the bit addressable memory space. The
‘bitoff’ value requires eight bits in the instruction format. The specified ‘bitoff’ range
selects different base addresses to generate physical addresses (see Table 4-17). The
‘bitoff’ accesses to the ESFR area require a preceding EXT*R instruction to switch the
base address.
bitaddr: Any bit address is specified by a word address within the bit addressable
memory space (see ‘bitoff’) and a bit position (‘bitpos’) within that word. Therefore,
‘bitaddr’ requires twelve bits in the instruction format.

different ways to generate the full 24-bit address:
•
•
•
Use one of the four Data Page Pointers (DPP registers): The used 16-bit pointer
selects a DPP with bits 15 … 14, bits 13 … 0 specify the 14-bit data page offset (see
Figure 4-13).
Select the used data page directly: The data page is selected by a preceeding
EXTP(R) instruction, bits 13 … 0 of the used 16-bit pointer specify the 14-bit data
page offset.
Select the used segment directly: The segment is selected by a preceeding
EXTS(R) instruction, the used 16-bit pointer specifies the 16-bit segment offset.
Note: Word accesses on odd byte addresses are not executed. A hardware trap will be
triggered.

The DPP registers allow access to the entire memory space in pages of 16 Kbytes each.
The DPP registers are implicitly used whenever data accesses to any memory location
are made via indirect or direct long 16-bit addressing modes (except for override
accesses via EXTended instructions and PEC data transfers). After reset, the Data Page
Pointers are initialized in such a way that all indirect or direct long 16-bit addresses result
in identical 18-bit addresses. This allows access to data pages 3 … 0 within segment 0
as shown in Figure 4-13. If the user does not want to use data paging, no further action
is required.
Data paging is performed by concatenating the lower 14 bits of an indirect or direct long
16-bit address with the contents of the DPP register selected by the upper two bits of the
16-bit address. The contents of the selected DPP register specify one of the 1024
possible data pages. This data page base address together with the 14-bit page offset
forms the physical 24-bit address (even if segmentation is disabled).
The selected number of segment address bits (via bitfield SALSEL) of the respective
DPP register is output on the respective segment address pins for all external data
accesses.
A DPP register can be updated via any instruction capable of modifying an SFR.
Note: Due to the internal instruction pipeline, a write operation to the DPPx registers
could stall the instruction flow until the DPP is actually updated. The instruction
that immediately follows the instruction which updates the DPP register can use
the new value of the changed DPPx.

Indirect Addressing Modes
Indirect addressing modes can be considered as a combination of short and long
addressing modes. This means that the “long” 16-bit pointer is provided indirectly by the
contents of a word GPR which itself is specified directly by a short 4-bit address
(‘Rw’ = 0 … 15).
There are indirect addressing modes, which add a constant value to the GPR contents
before the long 16-bit address is calculated. Other indirect addressing modes can
decrement or increment the indirect address pointers (GPR contents) by 2 or 1 (referring
to words or bytes) or by the contents of the offset registers QR0 or QR1.

DSP Addressing Modes
In addition to the Standard Address Generation Unit (SAGU), the DSP Address
Generation Unit (DAGU) provides an additional set of pointer registers (IDX0, IDX1) and
offset registers (QX0, QX1). The additional set of pointer registers IDX0 and IDX1 allows
the execution of DSP specific CoXXX instructions in one CPU cycle. An independent
arithmetic unit allows the update of these dedicated pointer registers in parallel with the
GPR-pointer modification of the SAGU. The DAGU only supports indirect addressing
modes that use the special pointer registers IDX0 and IDX1.
The address pointers can be used for arithmetic operations as well as for the special
CoMOV instruction. The generation of the 24-bit memory address is different:
•
For CoMOV instructions, the IDX pointers are concatenated with the DPPs or the
selected page/segment address, as described for long addressing modes (see
Figure 4-13 for a summary).
For arithmetic CoXXX instructions, the IDX pointers are automatically extended to
a 24-bit memory address pointing to the internal DPRAM area, as shown in
Figure 4-15.

The System Stack
The XC164 supports a system stack of up to 64 Kbytes. The stack can be located
internally in one of the on-chip memories or externally. The 16-bit Stack Pointer register
(SP) addresses the stack within a 64-Kbyte segment selected by the Stack Pointer
Segment register (SPSG). A virtual stack (usually bigger than 64 Kbytes) can be
implemented by software. This mechanism is supported by the Stack Overflow register
STKOV and the Stack Underflow register STKUN (see descriptions below).
The Stack Pointer Registers SP and SPSEG
Register SPSEG (not bitaddressable) selects the segment being used at run-time to
access the system stack. The lower eight bits of register SPSEG select one of up
256 segments of 64 Kbytes each, while the higher 8 bits are reserved for future use.
The Stack Pointer SP (not bitaddressable) points to the top of the system stack (TOS).
SP is pre-decremented whenever data is pushed onto the stack, and it is postincremented whenever data is popped from the stack. Therefore, the system stack
grows from higher towards lower memory locations.
System stack addresses are generated by directly extending the 16-bit contents of
register SP by the contents of register SPSG, as shown in Figure 4-17.
The system stack cannot cross a 64-Kbyte segment boundary.

Note: SPSEG and SP can be updated via any instruction capable of modifying a 16-bit

stalls the instruction flow until the register is really updated. The instruction
immediately following the instruction updating SPSG or SP can use the new value.
Extreme care should be taken when changing the contents of the stack pointer
registers. Improper changes may result in erroneous system behavior.

The Stack Overflow/Underflow Pointers STKOV/STKUN
These limit registers (not bit-addressable) supervise the stack pointer. A trap is
generated when the stack pointer reaches its upper or lower limit. The Stack Pointer
Segment Register SPSG is not taken into account for the stack pointer comparison. The
system stack cannot cross a 64-Kbyte segment.
STKOV is compared with SP before each implicit write operation which decrements the
contents of SP (instructions CALLA, CALLI, CALLR, CALLS, PCALL, TRAP, SCXT, or
PUSH). If the contents of SP are equal to the contents of STKOV a stack overflow trap
is triggered.
STKUN is compared with SP before each implicit read operation which increments the
contents of SP (instructions RET, RETS, RETP, RETI, or POP). If the contents of SP are
equal to the contents of STKUN a stack underflow trap is triggered.
The Stack Overflow/Underflow Traps may be used in two different ways:
•
•
Fatal error indication treats the stack overflow as a system error and executes the
associated trap service routine.
In case of a stack overflow trap, data in the bottom of the stack may have been
overwritten by the status information stacked upon servicing the trap itself.
Virtual stack control allows the system stack to be used as a ‘Stack Cache’ for a
bigger external user stack: flush cache in case of an overflow, refill cache in case of
an underflow.
Scope of Stack Limit Control
The stack limit control implemented by the register pair STKOV and STKUN detects
cases in which the Stack Pointer (SP) crosses the defined stack area as a result of an
implicit change.
If the stack pointer was explicitly changed as a result of move or arithmetic instruction,
SP is not compared to the contents of STKOV and STKUN. In this case, a stack violation
will not be detected if the modified stack pointer is on or outside the defined limits, i.e.
below (STKOV) or above (STKUN). Stack overflow/underflow is detected only in case of
implicit SP modification.
SP may be operated outside the permitted SP range without triggering a trap. However,
if SP reaches the limit of the permitted SP range from outside the range as a result of an
implicit change (PUSH or POP, for example), the respective trap will be triggered.
Note: STKOV and STKUN can be updated via any instruction capable of modifying an
SFR. If a stack overflow or underflow event occurs in an ATOMIC/EXT sequence,
the stack operations that are part of the sequence are completed. The trap is
issued after the completion of the entire ATOMIC/EXT sequence.

Standard Data Processing
All standard arithmetic, shift-, and logical operations are performed in the 16-bit ALU. In
addition to the standard functions, the ALU of the XC164 includes a bit-manipulation unit
and a multiply and divide unit. Most internal execution blocks have been optimized to
perform operations on either 8-bit or 16-bit numbers. After the pipeline has been filled,
most instructions are completed in one CPU cycle. The status flags are automatically
updated in register PSW after each ALU operation and reflect the current state of the
microcontroller. These flags allow branching upon specific conditions. Support of both
signed and unsigned arithmetic is provided by the user selectable branch test. The
status flags are also preserved automatically by the CPU upon entry into an interrupt or
trap routine. Another group of bits represents the current CPU interrupt status. Two
separate bits (USR0 and USR1) are provided as general purpose flags.

ALU/MAC Status (N, C, V, Z, E, USR0, USR1)
The condition flags (N, C, V, Z, E) within the PSW indicate the ALU status after the most
recently performed ALU operation. They are set by most of the instructions according to
specific rules which depend on the ALU or data movement operation performed by an
instruction.
After execution of an instruction which explicitly updates the PSW register, the condition
flags cannot be interpreted as described below because any explicit write to the PSW
register supersedes the condition flag values which are implicitly generated by the CPU.
Explicitly reading the PSW register supplies a read value which represents the state of
the PSW register after execution of the immediately preceding instruction.
Note: After reset, all of the ALU status bits are cleared.
N-Flag: For most of the ALU operations, the N-flag is set to 1, if the most significant bit
of the result contains a 1; otherwise, it is cleared. In the case of integer operations, the
N-flag can be interpreted as the sign bit of the result (negative: N = 1, positive: N = 0).
Negative numbers are always represented as the 2’s complement of the corresponding
positive number. The range of signed numbers extends from -8000H to +7FFFH for the
word data type, or from -80H to +7FH for the byte data type. For Boolean bit operations
with only one operand, the N-flag represents the previous state of the specified bit. For

Boolean bit operations with two operands, the N-flag represents the logical XORing of
the two specified bits.
C-Flag: After an addition, the C-flag indicates that a carry from the most significant bit of
the specified word or byte data type has been generated. After a subtraction or a
comparison, the C-flag indicates a borrow which represents the logical negation of a
carry for the addition.
This means that the C-flag is set to 1, if no carry from the most significant bit of the
specified word or byte data type has been generated during a subtraction, which is
performed internally by the ALU as a 2’s complement addition, and, the C-flag is cleared
when this complement addition caused a carry.
The C-flag is always cleared for logical, multiply and divide ALU operations, because
these operations cannot cause a carry.
For shift and rotate operations, the C-flag represents the value of the bit shifted out last.
If a shift count of zero is specified, the C-flag will be cleared. The C-flag is also cleared
for a prioritize ALU operation, because a 1 is never shifted out of the MSB during the
normalization of an operand.
For Boolean bit operations with only one operand, the C-flag is always cleared. For
Boolean bit operations with two operands, the C-flag represents the logical ANDing of
the two specified bits.
V-Flag: For addition, subtraction, and 2’s complementation, the V-flag is always set to 1
if the result exceeds the range of 16-bit signed numbers for word operations (-8000H to
+7FFFH), or 8-bit signed numbers for byte operations (-80H to +7FH). Otherwise, the
V-flag is cleared. Note that the result of an integer addition, integer subtraction, or 2’s
complement is not valid if the V-flag indicates an arithmetic overflow.
For multiplication and division, the V-flag is set to 1 if the result cannot be represented
in a word data type; otherwise, it is cleared. Note that a division by zero will always cause
an overflow. In contrast to the result of a division, the result of a multiplication is valid
whether or not the V-flag is set to 1.
Because logical ALU operations cannot produce an invalid result, the V-flag is cleared
by these operations.
The V-flag is also used as a ‘Sticky Bit’ for rotate right and shift right operations. With
only using the C-flag, a rounding error caused by a shift right operation can be estimated
up to a quantity of one half of the LSB of the result. In conjunction with the V-flag, the
C-flag allows evaluation of the rounding error with a finer resolution (see Table 4-24).
For Boolean bit operations with only one operand, the V-flag is always cleared. For
Boolean bit operations with two operands, the V-flag represents the logical ORing of the
two specified bits.

Z-Flag: The Z-flag is normally set to 1 if the result of an ALU operation equals zero,
otherwise it is cleared.
For the addition and subtraction with carry, the Z-flag is only set to 1, if the Z-flag already
contains a 1 and the result of the current ALU operation also equals zero. This
mechanism is provided to support multiple precision calculations.
For Boolean bit operations with only one operand, the Z-flag represents the logical
negation of the previous state of the specified bit. For Boolean bit operations with two
operands, the Z-flag represents the logical NORing of the two specified bits. For the
prioritize ALU operation, the Z-flag indicates whether the second operand was zero.
E-Flag: End of table flag. The E-flag can be altered by instructions which perform ALU
or data movement operations. The E-flag is cleared by those instructions which cannot
be reasonably used for table search operations. In all other cases, the E-flag value
depends on the value of the source operand to signify whether the end of a search table
is reached or not. If the value of the source operand of an instruction equals the lowest
negative number which is representable by the data format of the corresponding
instruction (8000H for the word data type, or 80H for the byte data type), the E-flag is set
to 1; otherwise, it is cleared.
General Control Functions (USR0, USR1, BANK)
A few bits in register PSW are dedicated to general control functions. Thus, they are
saved and restored automatically upon task switches and interrupts.
USR0/USR1-Flags: These bits can be set automatically during the execution of
repeated MAC instructions. These bits can also be used as general flags by an
application.
BANK: Bitfield BANK selects the currently active register bank (local or global). Bitfield
BANK is updated implicitly by hardware upon entering an interrupt service routine, and
by a RETI instruction. It can be also modified explicitly via software by any instruction
which can write to PSW.
CPU Interrupt Status (IEN, ILVL)
IEN: The Interrupt Enable bit allows interrupts to be globally enabled (IEN = 1) or
disabled (IEN = 0).

ILVL: The four-bit Interrupt Level field (ILVL) specifies the priority of the current CPU
activity. The interrupt level is updated by hardware on entry into an interrupt service
routine, but it can also be modified via software to prevent other interrupts from being
acknowledged. If an interrupt level 15 has been assigned to the CPU, it has the highest
possible priority; thus, the current CPU operation cannot be interrupted except by
hardware traps or external non-maskable interrupts. For details refer to Chapter 5.
After reset, all interrupts are globally disabled, and the lowest priority (ILVL = 0) is
assigned to the initial CPU activity.
4.8.1
16-bit Adder/Subtracter, Barrel Shifter, and 16-bit Logic Unit
All standard arithmetic and logical operations are performed by the 16-bit ALU. In case
of byte operations, signals from bits 6 and 7 of the ALU result are used to control the
condition flags. Multiple precision arithmetic is supported by a “CARRY-IN” signal to the
ALU from previously calculated portions of the desired operation.
A 16-bit barrel shifter provides multiple bit shifts in a single cycle. Rotations and
arithmetic shifts are also supported.
4.8.2
Bit Manipulation Unit
The XC164 offers a large number of instructions for bit processing. These instructions
either manipulate software flags within the internal RAM, control on-chip peripherals via
control bits in their respective SFRs, or control IO functions via port pins.
Unlike other microcontrollers, the XC164 features instructions that provide direct access
to two operands in the bit addressable space without requiring them to be moved to
temporary locations. Multiple bit shift instructions have been included to avoid long
instruction streams of single bit shift operations. These instructions require a single CPU
cycle.
The instructions BSET, BCLR, BAND, BOR, BXOR, BMOV, BMOVN explicitly set or
clear specific bits. The bitfield instructions BFLDL and BFLDH allow manipulation of up
to 8 bits of a specific byte at one time. The instructions JBC and JNBS implicitly clear or
set the specified bit when the jump is taken. The instructions JB and JNB (also
conditional jump instructions that refer to flags) evaluate the specified bit to determine if
the jump is to be taken.
Note: Bit operations on undefined bit locations will always read a bit value of ‘0’, while
the write access will not affect the respective bit location.
All instructions that manipulate single bits or bit groups internally use a read-modify-write
sequence that accesses the whole word containing the specified bit(s).
This method has several consequences:
•
The read-modify-write approach may be critical with hardware-affected bits. In these
cases, the hardware may change specific bits while the read-modify-write operation

•
is in progress; thus, the writeback would overwrite the new bit value generated by the
hardware. The solution is provided by either the implemented hardware protection
(see below) or through special programming (see Section 4.3).
Bits can be modified only within the internal address areas (internal RAM and SFRs).
External locations cannot be used with bit instructions.
The upper 256 bytes of SFR area, ESFR area, and internal DPRAM are bit-addressable;
so, the register bits located within those respective sections can be manipulated directly
using bit instructions. The other SFRs must be accessed byte/word wise.
Note: All GPRs are bit-addressable independently from the allocation of the register
bank via the Context Pointer (CP). Even GPRs which are allocated to non-bitaddressable RAM locations provide this feature.
Protected bits are not changed during the read-modify-write sequence, such as when
hardware sets an interrupt request flag between the read and the write of the readmodify-write sequence. The hardware protection logic guarantees that only the intended
bit(s) is/are affected by the write-back operation. A summary of the protected bits
implemented in the XC164 can be found in Section 2.7.
Note: If a conflict occurs between a bit manipulation generated by hardware and an
intended software access, the software access has priority and determines the
final value of the respective bit.

Multiply and Divide Unit
The XC164’s multiply and divide unit has two separated parts. One is the fast 16 × 16-bit
multiplier that executes a multiplication in one CPU cycle. The other one is a division subunit which performs the division algorithm in 18 … 21 CPU cycles (depending on the data
and division types). The divide instruction requires four CPU cycles to be executed. For
performance reasons, the rest of the division algorithm runs in the background during the
following seventeen CPU cycles, while further instructions are executed in parallel.
Interrupt tasks can also be started and executed immediately without any delay. If an
instruction (from the original instruction stream or from the interrupt task) tries to use the
unit while a division is still running, the execution of this new instruction is stalled until the
previous division is finished.
To avoid these stalls, the multiply and division unit should not be used during the first
fourteen CPU cycles of the interrupt tasks. For example, this requires up to fourteen onecycle instructions to be executed between the interrupt entry and the first instruction
which uses the multiply and divide unit again (worst case).
Multiplications and divisions implicitly use the 32-bit multiply/divide register MD
(represented by the concatenation of the two non-bit-addressable data registers MDH
and MDL) and the associated control register MDC. This bit-addressable 16-bit register
is implicitly used by the CPU when it performs a division or multiplication in the ALU.
After a multiplication, MD represents the 32-bit result. For long divisions, MD must be
loaded with the 32-bit dividend before the division is started. After any division, register
MDH represents the 16-bit remainder, register MDL represents the 16-bit quotient.

Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The working register of the MAC unit is a dedicated 40-bit accumulator register. A set of
consistent flags is automatically updated in status register MSW after each MAC
operation. These flags allow branching on specific conditions. Unlike the PSW flags,
these flags are not preserved automatically by the CPU upon entry into an interrupt or
trap routine. All dedicated MAC registers must be saved on the stack if the MAC unit is
shared between different tasks and interrupts. General properties of the MAC unit are
selected via the MAC control word MCW.

Representation of Numbers and Rounding
The XC164 supports the 2’s complement representation of binary numbers. In this
format, the sign bit is the MSB of the binary word. This is set to zero for positive numbers
and set to one for negative numbers. Unsigned numbers are supported only by
multiply/multiply-accumulate instructions which specify whether each operand is signed
or unsigned.
In 2’s complement fractional format, the N-bit operand is represented using the 1.[N-1]
format (1 signed bit, N-1 fractional bits). Such a format can represent numbers between
-1 and +1 - 2-[N-1]. This format is supported when bit MP of register MCW is set.
The XC164 implements 2’s complement rounding. With this rounding type, one is added
to the bit to the right of the rounding point (bit 15 of MAL), before truncation (MAL is
cleared).

4.9.2
The 16-bit by 16-bit Signed/Unsigned Multiplier and Scaler
The multiplier executes 16-bit by 16-bit parallel signed/unsigned fractional and integer
multiplication in one CPU-cycle. The multiplier allows the multiplication of unsigned and
signed operands. The result is always presented in a signed fractional or integer format.
The result of the multiplication feeds a one-bit scaler to allow compensation for the extra
sign bit gained in multiplying two 16-bit 2’s complement numbers.
4.9.3
Concatenation Unit
The concatenation unit enables the MAC unit to perform 32-bit arithmetic operations in
one CPU cycle. The concatenation unit concatenates two 16-bit operands to a 32-bit
operand before the 32-bit arithmetic operation is executed in the 40-bit adder/subtracter.
The second required operand is always the current accumulator contents. The
concatenation unit is also used to pre-load the accumulator with a 32-bit value.
4.9.4
One-bit Scaler
The one-bit scaler can shift the result of the concatenation unit or the output of the
multiplier one bit to the left. The scaler is controlled by the executed instruction for the
concatenation or by control bit MP in register MCW.
If bit MP is set the product is shifted one bit to the left to compensate for the extra sign
bit gained in multiplying two 16-bit 2’s-complement numbers. The enabled automatic
shift is performed only if both input operands are signed.
4.9.5
The 40-bit Adder/Subtracter
The 40-bit Adder/Subtracter allows intermediate overflows in a series of
multiply/accumulate operations. The Adder/Subtracter has two input ports. The 40-bit
port is the feedback of the accumulator output through the ACCU-Shifter to the
Adder/Subtracter. The 32-bit port is the input port for the operand coming from the onebit Scaler. The 32-bit operands are signed and extended to 40 bits before the
addition/subtraction is performed.
The output of the Adder/Subtracter goes to the accumulator. It is also possible to round
the result and to saturate it on a 32-bit value automatically after every accumulation. The
round operation is performed by adding 00’0000’8000H to the result. Automatic
saturation is enabled by setting the saturation control bit MS in register MCW.
When the accumulator is in the overflow saturation mode and an overflow occurs, the
accumulator is loaded with either the most positive or the most negative value
representable in a 32-bit value, depending on the direction of the overflow as well as on
the arithmetic used. The value of the accumulator upon saturation is either
00’7FFF’FFFFH (positive) or FF’8000’0000H (negative).

The Data Limiter
Saturation arithmetic is also provided to selectively limit overflow when reading the
accumulator by means of a CoSTORE <destination>., MAS instruction. Limiting is
performed on the MAC-Unit accumulator. If the contents of the accumulator can be
represented in the destination operand size without overflow, then the data limiter is
disabled and the operand is not modified. If the contents of the accumulator cannot be
represented without overflow in the destination operand size, the limiter will substitute a
“limited” data as explained in Table 4-25:

4.9.7
The Accumulator Shifter
The accumulator shifter is a parallel shifter with a 40-bit input and a 40-bit output. The
source accumulator shifting operations are:
•
•
•
No shift (Unmodified)
Up to 16-bit Arithmetic Left Shift
Up to 16-bit Arithmetic Right Shift
Notice that bits ME, MSV, and MSL in register MSW are affected by left shifts; therefore,
if the saturation mechanism is enabled (MS) the behavior is similar to the one of the
Adder/Subtracter.
Note: Certain precautions are required in case of left shift with saturation enabled.
Generally, if MAE contains significant bits, then the 32-bit value in the accumulator
is to be saturated. However, it is possible that left shift may move some significant
bits out of the accumulator. The 40-bit result will be misinterpreted and will be
either not saturated or saturated incorrectly. There is a chance that the result of
left shift may produce a result which can saturate an original positive number to
the minimum negative value, or vice versa.

The 40-bit Signed Accumulator Register
The 40-bit accumulator consists of three concatenated registers MAE, MAH, and MAL.
MAE is 8 bits wide, MAH and MAL are 16 bits wide. MAE is the Most Significant Byte of
the 40-bit accumulator. This byte performs a guarding function. MAE is accessed as the
lower byte of register MSW.
When MAH is written, the value in the accumulator is automatically adjusted to signed
extended 40-bit format. That means MAL is cleared and MAE will be automatically
loaded with zeros for a positive number (the most significant bit of MAH is 0), and with
ones for a negative number (the most significant bit of MAH is 1), representing the
extended 40-bit negative number in 2’s complement notation. One may see that the
extended 40-bit value is equal to the 32-bit value without extension. In other words, after
this extension, MAE does not contain significant bits. Generally, this condition is present
when the highest 9 bits of the 40-bit signed result are the same.
During the accumulator operations, an overflow may happen and the result may not fit
into 32 bits and MAE will change. The extension flag “E” in register MSW is set when the
signed result in the accumulator has exceeded the 32-bit boundary. This condition is
present when the highest 9 bits of the 40-bit signed result are not the same, i.e. MAE
contains significant bits.
Most CoXXX operations specify the 40-bit accumulator register as a source and/or a
destination operand.

MAC Unit Status (MV, MN, MZ, MC, MSV, ME, MSL)
These condition flags indicate the MAC status resulting from the most recently
performed MAC operation. These flags are controlled by the majority of MAC instructions
according to specific rules. Those rules depend on the instruction managing the MAC or
data movement operation.
After execution of an instruction which explicitly updates register MSW, the condition
flags may no longer represent an actual MAC status. An explicit write operation to
register MSW supersedes the condition flag values implicitly generated by the MAC unit.
An explicit read access returns the value of register MSW after execution of the
immediately preceding instruction. Register MSW can be accessed via any instruction
capable of accessing an SFR.
Note: After reset, all MAC status bits are cleared.
MN-Flag: For the majority of the MAC operations, the MN-flag is set to 1 if the most
significant bit of the result contains a 1; otherwise, it is cleared. In the case of integer
operations, the MN-flag can be interpreted as the sign bit of the result (negative: MN = 1,
positive: MN = 0). Negative numbers are always represented as the 2’s complement of
the corresponding positive number. The range of signed numbers extends from
80’0000’0000H to 7F’FFFF’FFFFH.
MZ-Flag: The MZ-flag is normally set to 1 if the result of a MAC operation equals zero;
otherwise, it is cleared.
MC-Flag: After a MAC addition, the MC-flag indicates that a “Carry” from the most
significant bit of the accumulator extension MAE has been generated. After a MAC
subtraction or a MAC comparison, the MC-flag indicates a “Borrow” representing the
logical negation of a “Carry” for the addition. This means that the MC-flag is set to 1 if no
“Carry” from the most significant bit of the accumulator has been generated during a
subtraction. Subtraction is performed by the MAC Unit as a 2’s complement addition and
the MC-flag is cleared when this complement addition caused a “Carry”.
For left-shift MAC operations, the MC-flag represents the value of the bit shifted out last.
Right-shift MAC operations always clear the MC-flag. The arithmetic right-shift MAC
operation can set the MC-flag if the enabled round operation generates a “Carry” from
the most significant bit of the accumulator extension MAE.
MSV-Flag: The addition, subtraction, 2’s complement, and round operations always set
the MSV-flag to 1 if the MAC result exceeds the maximum range of 40-bit signed
numbers. If the MSV-flag indicates an arithmetic overflow, the MAC result of an
operation is not valid.
The MSV-flag is a ‘Sticky Bit’. Once set, other MAC operations cannot affect the status
of the MSV-flag. Only a direct write operation can clear the MSV-flag.
ME-Flag: The ME-flag is set if the accumulator extension MAE contains significant bits,
that means if the nine highest accumulator bits are not all equal.

MSL-Flag: The MSL-flag is set if an automatic saturation of the accumulator has
happened. The automatic saturation is enabled if bit MS in register MCW is set. The
MSL-Flag can be also set by instructions which limit the contents of the accumulator. If
the accumulator has been limited, the MSL-Flag is set.
The MSL-Flag is a ‘Sticky Bit’. Once set, it cannot be affected by the other MAC
operations. Only a direct write operation can clear the MSL-flag.
MV-Flag: The addition, subtraction, and accumulation operations set the MV-flag to 1 if
the result exceeds the maximum range of signed numbers (80’0000’0000H to
7F’FFFF’FFFFH); otherwise, the MV-flag is cleared. Note that if the MV-flag indicates an
arithmetic overflow, the result of the integer addition, integer subtraction, or
accumulation is not valid.

The Repeat Counter MRW
The Repeat Counter MRW controls the number of repetitions a loop must be executed.
The register must be pre-loaded before it can be used with -USRx CoXXX operations.
MAC operations are able to decrement this counter. When a -USRx CoXXX instruction
is executed, MRW is checked for zero before being decremented. If MRW equals zero,
bit USRx is set and MRW is not further decremented. Register MRW can be accessed
via any instruction capable of accessing a SFR.

Interrupt and Trap Functions

Interrupt and Trap Functions
The architecture of the XC164 supports several mechanisms for fast and flexible
response to service requests from various sources internal or external to the
microcontroller. Different kinds of exceptions are handled in a similar way:
•
•
•
Interrupts generated by the Interrupt Controller (ITC)
DMA transfers issued by the Peripheral Event Controller (PEC)
Traps caused by the TRAP instruction or issued by faults or specific system states
Normal Interrupt Processing
The CPU temporarily suspends current program execution and branches to an interrupt
service routine to service an interrupt requesting device. The current program status (IP,
PSW, also CSP in segmentation mode) is saved on the internal system stack. A
prioritization scheme with 16 priority levels allows the user to specify the order in which
multiple interrupt requests are to be handled.
Interrupt Processing via the Peripheral Event Controller (PEC)
A faster alternative to normal software controlled interrupt processing is servicing an
interrupt requesting device with the XC164’s integrated Peripheral Event Controller
(PEC). Triggered by an interrupt request, the PEC performs a single word or byte data
transfer between any two locations through one of eight programmable PEC Service
Channels. During a PEC transfer, normal program execution of the CPU is halted. No
internal program status information needs to be saved. The same prioritization scheme
is used for PEC service as for normal interrupt processing.
Trap Functions
Trap functions are activated in response to special conditions that occur during the
execution of instructions. A trap can also be caused externally by the Non-Maskable
Interrupt pin, NMI. Several hardware trap functions are provided to handle erroneous
conditions and exceptions arising during instruction execution. Hardware traps always
have highest priority and cause immediate system reaction. The software trap function
is invoked by the TRAP instruction that generates a software interrupt for a specified
interrupt vector. For all types of traps, the current program status is saved on the system
stack.
External Interrupt Processing
Although the XC164 does not provide dedicated interrupt pins, it allows connection of
external interrupt sources and provides several mechanisms to react to external events
including standard inputs, non-maskable interrupts, and fast external interrupts. Except
for the non-maskable interrupt and the reset input, these interrupt functions are alternate
port functions.

5.1
Interrupt System Structure
The XC164 provides 80 separate interrupt nodes assignable to 16 priority levels, with
8 sub-levels (group priority) on each level. In order to support modular and consistent
software design techniques, most sources of an interrupt or PEC request are supplied
with a separate interrupt control register and an interrupt vector. The control register
contains the interrupt request flag, the interrupt enable bit, and the interrupt priority of the
associated source. Each source request is then activated by one specific event,
determined by the selected operating mode of the respective device. For efficient
resource usage, multi-source interrupt nodes are also incorporated. These nodes can be
activated by several source requests, such as by different kinds of errors in the serial
interfaces. However, specific status flags which identify the type of error are
implemented in the serial channels’ control registers. Additional sharing of interrupt
nodes is supported via interrupt subnode control registers.
The XC164 provides a vectored interrupt system. In this system specific vector locations
in the memory space are reserved for the reset, trap, and interrupt service functions.
Whenever a request occurs, the CPU branches to the location that is associated with the
respective interrupt source. This allows direct identification of the source which caused
the request. The Class B hardware traps all share the same interrupt vector. The status
flags in the Trap Flag Register (TFR) can then be used to determine which exception
caused the trap. For the special software TRAP instruction, the vector address is
specified by the operand field of the instruction, which is a seven bit trap number.
The reserved vector locations build a jump table in the low end of a segment (selected
by register VECSEG) in the XC164’s address space. The jump table consists of the
appropriate jump instructions which transfer control to the interrupt or trap service
routines and which may be located anywhere within the address space. The entries of
the jump table are located at the lowest addresses in the selected code segment. Each
entry occupies 2, 4, 8, or 16 words (selected by bitfield VECSC in register CPUCON1),
providing room for at least one doubleword instruction. The respective vector location
results from multiplying the trap number by the selected step width (2(VECSC+2)).
All pending interrupt requests are arbitrated. The arbitration winner is indicated to the
CPU together with its priority level and action request. The CPU triggers the
corresponding action based on the required functionality (normal interrupt, PEC, jump
table cache, etc.) of the arbitration winner.
An action request will be accepted by the CPU if the requesting source has a higher
priority than the current CPU priority level and interrupts are globally enabled. If the

Interrupt Arbitration and Control
The XC164’s interrupt arbitration system handles interrupt requests from up to
80 sources. Interrupt requests may be triggered either by the on-chip peripherals or by
external inputs.
Interrupt processing is controlled globally by register PSW through a general interrupt
enable bit (IEN) and the CPU priority field (ILVL). Additionally, the different interrupt
sources are controlled individually by their specific interrupt control registers (… IC).
Thus, the acceptance of requests by the CPU is determined by both the individual
interrupt control registers and by the PSW. PEC services are controlled by the respective
PECCx register and by the source and destination pointers which specify the task of the
respective PEC service channel.
An interrupt request sets the associated interrupt request flag xxIR. If the requesting
interrupt node is enabled by the associated interrupt enable bit xxIE arbitration starts with
the next clock cycle, or after completion of an arbitration cycle that is already in progress.
All interrupt requests pending at the beginning of a new arbitration cycle are considered,
independently from when they were actually requested.
Figure 5-2 shows the three-stage interrupt prioritization scheme:

Interrupt and Trap Functions
The interrupt prioritization is done in three stages:
•
•
•
Select one of the active interrupt requests
Compare the priority levels of the selected request and an OCDS service request
Compare the priority level of the final request with the CPU priority level
The First Arbitration Stage
compares the priority levels of the active interrupt request lines. The interrupt priority
level of each requestor is defined by bitfield ILVL in the respective xxIC register. The
extended group priority level XGLVL (combined from bitfields GPX and GLVL) defines
up to eight sub-priorities within one interrupt level. The group priority level distinguishes
interrupt requests assigned to the same priority level, so one winner can be determined.
Note: All interrupt request sources that are enabled and programmed to the same
interrupt priority level (ILVL) must have different group priority levels. Otherwise,
an incorrect interrupt vector will be generated.
The Second Arbitration Stage
compares the priority of the first stage winner with the priority of OCDS service requests.
OCDS service requests bypass the first stage of arbitration and go directly to the CPU
Action Control Unit. The CPU Action Control Unit compares the winner’s 4-bit priority
level (disregarding the group level) with the 5-bit OCDS service request priority. The 4-bit
ILVL of the interrupt request is extended to a 5-bit value with MSB = 0. This means that
any OCDS request with MSB = 1 will always win the second stage arbitration. However,
if there is a conflict between an OCDS request and an interrupt request, the interrupt
request wins.
The Third Arbitration Stage
compares the priority level of the second stage winner with the priority of the current CPU
task. An action request will be accepted by the CPU only if the priority level of the request
is higher than the current CPU priority level (bitfield ILVL in register PSW) and if interrupt
and PEC requests are globally enabled by the global interrupt enable flag IEN in register
PSW. To compare with the 5-bit priority level of the second stage winner, the 4-bit CPU
priority level is extended to a 5-bit value with MSB = 0. This means that any request with
MSB = 1 will always interrupt the current CPU task. If the requestor has a priority level
lower than or equal to the current CPU task, the request remains pending.
Note: Priority level 0000B is the default level of the CPU. Therefore, a request on
interrupt priority level 0000B will be arbitrated, but the CPU will never accept an
action request on this level. However, every individually enabled interrupt request
(including all denied interrupt requests and priority level 0000B requests) triggers
a CPU wake-up from idle state independent of the global interrupt enable bit IEN.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
Both the OCDS break requests and the hardware traps bypass the arbitration scheme
and go directly to the core (see also Figure 5-2).
The arbitration process starts with an enabled interrupt request and stays active as long
as an interrupt request is pending. If no interrupt request is pending the arbitration is
stopped to save power.
Interrupt Control Registers
The control functions for each interrupt node are grouped in a dedicated interrupt control
register (xxIC, where “xx” stands for a mnemonic for the respective node). All interrupt
control registers are organized identically. The lower 9 bits of an interrupt control register
contain the complete interrupt control and status information of the associated source
required during one round of prioritization (arbitration cycle); the upper 7 bits are
reserved for future use. All interrupt control registers are bit-addressable and all bits can
be read or written via software. Therefore, each interrupt source can be programmed or
modified with just one instruction.

1) Bit xxIR supports bit-protection.
When accessing interrupt control registers through instructions which operate on word
data types, their upper 7 bits (15 … 9) will return zeros when read, and will discard
written data. It is recommended to always write zeros to these bit positions. The layout
of the interrupt control registers shown below applies to each xxIC register, where “xx”
represents the mnemonic for the respective source.
The Interrupt Request Flag is set by hardware whenever a service request from its
respective source occurs. It is cleared automatically upon entry into the interrupt service
routine or upon a PEC service. In the case of PEC service, the Interrupt Request flag
remains set if the COUNT field in register PECCx of the selected PEC channel
decrements to zero and bit EOPINT is cleared. This allows a normal CPU interrupt to
respond to a completed PEC block transfer on the same priority level.
Note: Modifying the Interrupt Request flag via software causes the same effects as if it
had been set or cleared by hardware.
The Interrupt Enable Control Bit determines whether the respective interrupt node
takes part in the arbitration process (enabled) or not (disabled). The associated request
flag will be set upon a source request in any case. The occurrence of an interrupt request
can so be polled via xxIR even while the node is disabled.
Note: In this case the interrupt request flag xxIR is not cleared automatically but must be
cleared via software.
Interrupt Priority Level and Group Level
The four bits of bitfield ILVL specify the priority level of a service request for the
arbitration of simultaneous requests. The priority increases with the numerical value of
ILVL: so, 0000B is the lowest and 1111B is the highest priority level.
When more than one interrupt request on a specific level becomes active at the same
time, the values in the respective bitfields GPX and GLVL are used for second level
arbitration to select one request to be serviced. Again, the group priority increases with
the numerical value of the concatenation of bitfields GPX and GLVL, so 000B is the
lowest and 111B is the highest group priority.
Note: All interrupt request sources enabled and programmed to the same priority level
must always be programmed to different group priorities. Otherwise, an incorrect
interrupt vector will be generated.

System Units (Vol. 1 of 2)
Interrupt and Trap Functions
Upon entry into the interrupt service routine, the priority level of the source that won the
arbitration and whose priority level is higher than the current CPU level, is copied into
bitfield ILVL of register PSW after pushing the old PSW contents onto the stack.
The interrupt system of the XC164 allows nesting of up to 15 interrupt service routines
of different priority levels (level 0 cannot be arbitrated).
Interrupt requests programmed to priority levels 15 … 8 (i.e., ILVL = 1XXXB) can be
serviced by the PEC if the associated PEC channel is properly assigned and enabled
(please refer to Section 5.4). Interrupt requests programmed to priority levels 7 through
1 will always be serviced by normal interrupt processing.
Note: Priority level 0000B is the default level of the CPU. Therefore, a request on level 0
will never be serviced because it can never interrupt the CPU. However, an
individually enabled interrupt request (independent of bit IEN) on level 0000B will
terminate the XC164’s Idle mode and reactivate the CPU.
General Interrupt Control Functions in Register PSW
The acceptance of an interrupt request depends on the current CPU priority level (bitfield
ILVL in register PSW) and the global interrupt enable control bit IEN in register PSW (see
Section 4.8).
CPU Priority ILVL defines the current level for the operation of the CPU. This bitfield
reflects the priority level of the routine currently executed. Upon entry into an interrupt
service routine, this bitfield is updated with the priority level of the request being serviced.
The PSW is saved on the system stack before the request is serviced. The CPU level
determines the minimum interrupt priority level which will be serviced. Any request on
the same or a lower level will not be acknowledged. The current CPU priority level may
be adjusted via software to control which interrupt request sources will be
acknowledged. PEC transfers do not really interrupt the CPU, but rather “steal” a single
cycle, so PEC services do not influence the ILVL field in the PSW.
Hardware traps switch the CPU level to maximum priority (i.e. 15) so no interrupt or PEC
requests will be acknowledged while an exception trap service routine is executed.
Note: The TRAP instruction does not change the CPU level, so software invoked trap
service routines may be interrupted by higher requests.
Interrupt Enable bit IEN globally enables or disables PEC operation and the
acceptance of interrupts by the CPU. When IEN is cleared, no new interrupt requests are
accepted by the CPU (see also Section 4.3.4). When IEN is set to 1, all interrupt
sources, which have been individually enabled by the interrupt enable bits in their
associated control registers, are globally enabled. Traps are non-maskable and are,
therefore, not affected by the IEN bit.
Note: To generate requests, interrupt sources must be also enabled by the interrupt
enable bits in their associated control register.

Register Bank Select bitfield BANK defines the currently used register bank for the
CPU operation. When the CPU enters an interrupt service routine, this bitfield is updated
to select the register bank associated with the serviced request:
•
•
•
•
Requests on priority levels 15 … 12 use the register bank pre-selected via the
respective bitfield GPRSELx in the corresponding BNKSEL register
Requests on priority levels 11 … 1 always use the global register bank,
i.e. BANK = 00B
Hardware traps always use the global register bank, i.e. BANK = 00B
The TRAP instruction does not change the current register bank

Interrupt Vector Table
The XC164 provides a vectored interrupt system. This system reserves a set of specific
memory locations, which are accessed automatically upon the respective trigger event.
Entries for the following events are provided:
•
•
•
Reset (hardware, software, watchdog)
Traps (hardware-generated by fault conditions or via TRAP instruction)
Interrupt service requests
Whenever a request is accepted, the CPU branches to the location associated with the
respective trigger source. This vector position directly identifies the source causing the
request, with two exceptions:
•
•
Class B hardware traps all share the same interrupt vector. The status flags in the
Trap Flag Register (TFR) are used to determine which exception caused the trap. For
details, see Section 5.11.
An interrupt node may be shared by several interrupt requests, e.g. within a module.
Additional flags identify the requesting source, so the software can handle each
request individually. For details, see Section 5.7.
The reserved vector locations build a vector table located in the address space of the
XC164. The vector table usually contains the appropriate jump instructions that transfer
control to the interrupt or trap service routines. These routines may be located anywhere
within the address space. The location and organization of the vector table is
programmable.
The Vector Segment register VECSEG defines the segment of the Vector Table (can be
located in all segments, except for reserved areas).
Bitfield VECSC in register CPUCON1 defines the space between two adjacent vectors
(can be 2, 4, 8, or 16 words). For a summary of register CPUCON1, please refer to
Section 4.4.
Each vector location has an offset address to the segment base address of the vector
table (given by VECSEG). The offset can be easily calculated by multiplying the vector
number with the vector space programmed in bitfield VECSC.
Table 5-2 lists all sources capable of requesting interrupt or PEC service in the XC164,
the associated interrupt vector locations, the associated vector numbers, and the
associated interrupt control registers.
Note: All interrupt nodes which are currently not used by their associated modules or are
not connected to a module in the actual derivative may be used to generate
software controlled interrupt requests by setting the respective IR flag.

Table 5-3 lists the vector locations for hardware traps and the corresponding status flags
in register TFR. It also lists the priorities of trap service for those cases in which more
than one trap condition might be detected within the same instruction. After any reset
(hardware reset, software reset instruction SRST, or reset by watchdog timer overflow)
program execution starts at the reset vector at location xx’0000H. Reset conditions have
priority over every other system activity and, therefore, have the highest priority (trap
priority III).
Software traps may be initiated to any defined vector location. A service routine entered
via a software TRAP instruction is always executed on the current CPU priority level
which is indicated in bitfield ILVL in register PSW. This means that routines entered via
the software TRAP instruction can be interrupted by all hardware traps or higher level
interrupt requests.

Interrupt Jump Table Cache
Servicing an interrupt request via the vector table usually incurs two subsequent
branches: an implicit branch to the vector location and an explicit branch to the actual
service routine. The interrupt servicing time can be reduced by the Interrupt Jump Table
Cache (ITC, also called “fast interrupt”). This feature eliminates the second explicit
branch by directly providing the CPU with the service routine’s location.
The ITC provides two 24-bit pointers, so the CPU can directly branch to the respective
service routines. These fast interrupts can be selected for two interrupt sources on
priority levels 15 … 12.
The two pointers are each stored in a pair of interrupt jump table cache registers
(FINTxADDR, FINTxCSP), which store a pointer’s segment and offset along with the
priority level it shall be assigned to (select the same priority that is programmed for the
respective interrupt node).

Operation of the Peripheral Event Controller Channels
The XC164’s Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) provides 8 PEC service channels which
move a single byte or word between any two locations. A PEC transfer can be triggered
by an interrupt service request and is the fastest possible interrupt response. In many
cases a PEC transfer is sufficient to service the respective peripheral request (for
example, serial channels, etc.).
PEC transfers do not change the current context, but rather “steal” cycles from the CPU,
so the current program status and context needs not to be saved and restored as with
standard interrupts.
The PEC channels are controlled by a dedicated set of registers which are assigned to
dedicated PEC resources:
•
•
•
•
A 24-bit source pointer for each channel
A 24-bit destination pointer for each channel
A Channel Counter/Control register (PECCx) for each channel, selecting the
operating mode for the respective channel
Two interrupt control registers to control the operation of block transfers
The PECC registers control the action performed by the respective PEC channel.
Transfer Size (bit BWT) controls whether a byte or a word is moved during a PEC
service cycle. This selection controls the transferred data size and the increment step for
the pointer(s) to be modified.
Pointer Modification (bitfield INC) controls, which of the PEC pointers is incremented
after the PEC transfer. If the pointers are not modified (INC = 00B), the respective
channel will always move data from the same source to the same destination.
Transfer Control (bitfield COUNT) controls if the respective PEC channel remains
active after the transfer or not. Bitfield COUNT also generally enables a PEC channel
(COUNT > 00H).
The PECC registers also select the assignment of PEC channels to interrupt priority
levels (bitfield PLEV) and the interrupt behavior after PEC transfer completion (bit
EOPINT).
Note: All interrupt request sources that are enabled and programmed for PEC service
should use different channels. Otherwise, only one transfer will be performed for
all simultaneous requests. When COUNT is decremented to 00H, and the CPU is
to be interrupted, an incorrect interrupt vector will be generated.
PEC transfers are executed only if their priority level is higher than the CPU level.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
The PEC channel number is derived from the respective ILVL (LSB) and GLVL, where
the priority band (ILVL) is selected by the channel’s bitfield PLEV (see Table 5-5). So,
programming a source to priority level 15 (ILVL = 1111B) selects the PEC channel group
7 … 4 with PLEV = 00B; programming a source to priority level 14 (ILVL = 1110B) selects
the PEC channel group 3 … 0 with PLEV = 00B; programming a source to priority level
10 (ILVL = 1010B) selects the PEC channel group 3 … 0 with PLEV = 10B. The actual
PEC channel number is then determined by the group priority (levels 3 … 0, i.e.
GPX = 0).
Simultaneous requests for PEC channels are prioritized according to the PEC channel
number, where channel 0 has lowest and channel 7 has highest priority.
Note: All sources requesting PEC service must be programmed to different PEC
channels. Otherwise, an incorrect PEC channel may be activated.

The PEC Source and Destination Pointers
The PEC channels’ source and destination pointers specify the locations between which
the data is to be moved. Both 24-bit pointers are built by concatenating the 16-bit offset
register (SRCPx or DSTPx) with the respective 8-bit segment bitfield (SRCSEGx or
DSTSEGx, combined in register PECSEGx).

PEC Data Pointers
When a PEC pointer is automatically incremented after a transfer, only the offset part is
incremented (SRCPx and/or DSTPx), while the respective segment part is not modified
by hardware. Thus, a pointer may be incremented within the current segment, but may
not cross the segment boundary. When a PEC pointer reaches the maximum offset
(FFFEH for word transfers, FFFFH for byte transfers), it is not incremented further, but
keeps its maximum offset value. This protects memory in adjacent segments from being
overwritten unintentionally.
No explicit error event is generated by the system in case of a pointer saturation;
therefore, it is the user’s responsibility to prevent this condition.
Note: PEC data transfers do not use the data page pointers DPP3 … DPP0.
Unused PEC pointers may be used for general data storage.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
The PEC transfer counter allows service of a specified number of requests by the
respective PEC channel, and then (when COUNT reaches 00H) activation of an interrupt
service routine, either associated with the PEC channel’s priority level or with the general
end-of-PEC interrupt. After each PEC transfer, the COUNT field is decremented (except
for COUNT = FFH) and the request flag is cleared to indicate that the request has been
serviced.
When COUNT contains the value 00H, the respective PEC channel remains idle and the
associated interrupt service routine is activated instead. This allows servicing requests
on all priority levels by standard interrupt service routines.
Continuous transfers are selected by the value FFH in bitfield COUNT. In this case,
COUNT is not modified and the respective PEC channel services any request until it is
disabled again.
When COUNT is decremented from 01H to 00H after a transfer, a standard interrupt is
requested which can then handle the end of the PEC block transfer (channel-specific
interrupt or common end-of-PEC interrupt, see Table 5-8).

Channel Link Mode for Data Chaining
In channel link mode, every two PEC channels build a pair (channels 0+1, 2+3, 4+5,
6+7), where the two channels of a pair are activated in turn. Requests for the even
channel trigger the currently active PEC channel (or the end-of-block interrupt), while
requests for the odd channel only trigger its associated interrupt node. When the transfer
count of one channel expires, control is switched to the other channel, and back. This
mode supports data chaining where independent blocks of data can be transferred to the
same destination (or vice versa), e.g. to build communication frames from several
blocks, such as preamble, data, etc.
Channel link mode for a pair of channels is enabled if at least one of the channel link
control bits (bit CL in register PECCx) of the respective pair is set. A linked channel pair
is controlled by the priority-settings (level, group) for its even channel. After enabling
channel link mode the even channel is active.
Channel linking is executed if the active channel’s link control bit CL is 1 at the time its
transfer count decrements from 1 to 0 (count > 0 before) and the transfer count of the
other channel is non-zero. In this case the active channel issues an EOP interrupt
request and the respective other channel of the pair is automatically selected.
Note: Channel linking always begins with the even channel.
Channel linking is terminated if the active channel’s link control bit CL is 0 at the time
its transfer count decrements from 1 to 0, or if the transfer count of the respective linked
channel is zero. In this case an interrupt is triggered as selected by bit EOPINT (channelspecific or general EOP interrupt).
A data-chaining sequence using PEC channel linking is programmed by setting bit CL
together with a transfer count value (> 0). This is repeated, triggered by the channel link
interrupts, for the complete sequence. For the last transfer, the interrupt routine should
clear the respective bit CL, so, at the end of the complete transfer, either a standard or
an END of PEC interrupt can be selected by bit EOPINT of the last channel.
Note: To enable linking, initially both channels must receive a non-zero transfer count.
For the rest of the sequence only the channel with the expired transfer count
needs to be reconfigured.

Prioritization of Interrupt and PEC Service Requests
Interrupt and PEC service requests from all sources can be enabled so they are
arbitrated and serviced (if they win), or they may be disabled, so their requests are
disregarded and not serviced.
Enabling and disabling interrupt requests may be done via three mechanisms:
•
•
•
Control Bits
Priority Level
ATOMIC and EXTended Instructions
Control Bits allow switching of each individual source “ON” or “OFF” so that it may
generate a request or not. The control bits (xxIE) are located in the respective interrupt
control registers. All interrupt requests may be enabled or disabled generally via bit IEN
in register PSW. This control bit is the “main switch” which selects if requests from any
source are accepted or not.
For a specific request to be arbitrated, the respective source’s enable bit and the global
enable bit must both be set.
The Priority Level automatically selects a certain group of interrupt requests to be
acknowledged and ignores all other requests. The priority level of the source that won
the arbitration is compared against the CPU’s current level and the source is serviced
only if its level is higher than the current CPU level. Changing the CPU level to a specific
value via software blocks all requests on the same or a lower level. An interrupt source
assigned to level 0 will be disabled and will never be serviced.
The ATOMIC and EXTend instructions automatically disable all interrupt requests for
the duration of the following 1 … 4 instructions. This is useful for semaphore handling,
for example, and does not require to re-enable the interrupt system after the inseparable
instruction sequence.
Interrupt Class Management
An interrupt class covers a set of interrupt sources with the same importance, i.e. the
same priority from the system’s viewpoint. Interrupts of the same class must not interrupt
each other. The XC164 supports this function with two features:
Classes with up to eight members can be established by using the same interrupt priority
(ILVL) and assigning a dedicated group level to each member. This functionality is builtin and handled automatically by the interrupt controller.
Classes with more than eight members can be established by using a number of
adjacent interrupt priorities (ILVL) and the respective group levels (eight per ILVL). Each
interrupt service routine within this class sets the CPU level to the highest interrupt
priority within the class. All requests from the same or any lower level are blocked now,
i.e. no request of this class will be accepted.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
The example shown below establishes 3 interrupt classes which cover 2 or 3 interrupt
priorities, depending on the number of members in a class. A level 6 interrupt disables
all other sources in class 2 by changing the current CPU level to 8, which is the highest
priority (ILVL) in class 2. Class 1 requests or PEC requests are still serviced, in this case.
In this way, the interrupt sources (excluding PEC requests) are assigned to 3 classes of
priority rather than to 7 different levels, as the hardware support would do.

Context Switching and Saving Status
Before an interrupt request that has been arbitrated is actually serviced, the status of the
current task is automatically saved on the system stack. The CPU status (PSW) is saved
together with the location at which execution of the interrupted task is to be resumed after
returning from the service routine. This return location is specified through the Instruction
Pointer (IP) and, in the case of a segmented memory model, the Code Segment Pointer
(CSP). Bit SGTDIS in register CPUCON1 controls how the return location is stored.
The system stack receives the PSW first, followed by the IP (unsegmented), or followed
by CSP and then IP (segmented mode). This optimizes the usage of the system stack if
segmentation is disabled.
The CPU priority field (ILVL in PSW) is updated with the priority of the interrupt request
to be serviced, so the CPU now executes on the new level.
The register bank select field (BANK in PSW) is changed to select the register bank
associated with the interrupt request. The association between interrupt requests and
register banks are partly pre-defined and can partly be programmed.
The interrupt request flag of the source being serviced is cleared. IP and CSP are loaded
with the vector associated with the requesting source, and the first instruction of the
service routine is fetched from the vector location which is expected to branch to the
actual service routine (except when the interrupt jump table cache is used). All other
CPU resources, such as data page pointers and the context pointer, are not affected.
When the interrupt service routine is exited (RETI is executed), the status information is
popped from the system stack in the reverse order, taking into account the value of bit
SGTDIS.

Context Switching
An interrupt service routine usually saves all the registers it uses on the stack and
restores them before returning. The more registers a routine uses, the more time is spent
saving and restoring. The XC164 allows switching the complete bank of CPU registers
(GPRs) either automatically or with a single instruction, so the service routine executes
within its own separate context (see also Section 4.5.2).
There are two ways to switch the context in the XC164 core:
Switching Context of the Global Register Bank changes the complete global register
bank of CPU registers (GPRs) by changing the Context Pointer with a single instruction,
so the service routine executes within its own separate context. The instruction “SCXT
CP, #New_Bank” pushes the contents of the context pointer (CP) on the system stack
and loads CP with the immediate value “New_Bank”; this in turn, selects a new register
bank. The service routine may now use its “own registers”. This register bank is
preserved when the service routine terminates, i.e. its contents are available on the next
call. Before returning (RETI), the previous CP is simply POPped from the system stack,
which returns the registers to the original global bank.
Resources used by the interrupting program, such as the DPPs, must eventually be
saved and restored.
Note: There are certain timing restrictions during context switching that are associated
with pipeline behavior.
Switching Context by changing the selected register bank automatically updates
bitfield BANK to select one of the two local register banks or the current global register
bank, so the service routine may now use its “own registers” directly. This local register
bank is preserved when the service routine is terminated; thus, its contents are available
on the next call.
When switching to the global register bank, the service routine usually must also switch
the context of the global register bank to get a private set of GPRs, because the global
bank is likely to be used by several tasks.
For interrupt priority levels 15 … 12 the target register bank can be pre-selected and
then be switched automatically. The register bank selection registers BNKSELx provide
a 2-bit field for each possible arbitration priority level. The respective bitfield is then
copied to bitfield BANK in register PSW to select the register bank, as soon as the
respective interrupt request is accepted.
Table 5-10 identifies the arbitration priority level assignment to the respective bitfields
within the four register bank selection registers.

Interrupt Node Sharing
Interrupt nodes may be shared among several module requests if either the requests are
generated mutually exclusively or the requests are generated at a low rate. If more than
one source is enabled in this case, the interrupt handler will first need to determine the
requesting source. However, this overhead is not critical for low rate requests.
This node sharing is either controlled via interrupt sub-node control registers (ISNC)
which provide separate request flags and enable bits for each supported request source,
or the involved request sources are simply ORed to trigger the common node. The
interrupt level used for arbitration is determined by the node control register (… IC).
The specific request flags within ISNC registers must be reset by software, contrary to
the node request bits which are cleared automatically.

External Interrupts
Although the XC164 has no dedicated INTR input pins, it supports many possibilities to
react to external asynchronous events. It does this by using a number of IO lines for
interrupt input. The interrupt function may be either combined with the pin’s main function
or used instead of it if the main pin function is not required.
The Fast External Interrupt detection provides flexible wake-up signals even in sleep
mode. This function can also generate additional interrupt requests from external input
signals.

For each of these pins, either a positive, a negative, or both a positive and a negative
external transition can be selected to cause an interrupt or PEC service request. The
edge selection is performed in the control register of the peripheral device associated
with the respective port pin (separate control for fast external interrupts). The peripheral
must be programmed to a specific operating mode to allow generation of an interrupt by
the external signal. The priority of the interrupt request is determined by the interrupt
control register of the respective peripheral interrupt source, and the interrupt vector of
this source will be used to service the external interrupt request.
Note: In order to use any of the listed pins as an external interrupt input, it must be
switched to input mode via its direction control bit DPx.y in the respective port
direction control register DPx.
When port pins CCxIO are to be used as external interrupt input pins, bitfield CCMODx
in the control register of the corresponding capture/compare register CCx must select
capture mode. When CCMODx is programmed to 001B, the interrupt request flag CCxIR
in register CCxIC will be set on a positive external transition at pin CCxIO. When
CCMODx is programmed to 010B, a negative external transition will set the interrupt
request flag. When CCMODx = 011B, both a positive and a negative transition will set
the request flag. In all three cases, the contents of the allocated CAPCOM timer will be
latched into capture register CCx, independent of whether or not the timer is running.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
When the interrupt enable bit CCxIE is set, a PEC request or an interrupt request for
vector CCxINT will be generated.
Pins T2IN or T4IN can be used as external interrupt input pins when the associated
auxiliary timer T2 or T4 in block GPT1 is configured for capture mode. This mode is
selected by programming the mode control fields T2M or T4M in control registers
T2CON or T4CON to 101B. The active edge of the external input signal is determined by
bitfields T2I or T4I. When these fields are programmed to X01B, interrupt request flags
T2IR or T4IR in registers T2IC or T4IC will be set on a positive external transition at pins
T2IN or T4IN, respectively. When T2I or T4I is programmed to X10B, then a negative
external transition will set the corresponding request flag. When T2I or T4I is
programmed to X11B, both a positive and a negative transition will set the request flag.
In all three cases, the contents of the core timer T3 will be captured into the auxiliary
timer registers T2 or T4 based on the transition at pins T2IN or T4IN. When the interrupt
enable bits T2IE or T4IE are set, a PEC request or an interrupt request for vector T2INT
or T4INT will be generated.
Pin CAPIN differs slightly from the timer input pins as it can be used as external interrupt
input pin without affecting peripheral functions. When the capture mode enable bit T5SC
in register T5CON is cleared to ‘0’, signal transitions on pin CAPIN will only set the
interrupt request flag CRIR in register CRIC, and the capture function of register
CAPREL is not activated.
So register CAPREL can still be used as reload register for GPT2 timer T5, while pin
CAPIN serves as external interrupt input. Bitfield CI in register T5CON selects the
effective transition of the external interrupt input signal. When CI is programmed to 01B,
a positive external transition will set the interrupt request flag. CI = 10B selects a negative
transition to set the interrupt request flag, and with CI = 11B, both a positive and a
negative transition will set the request flag. When the interrupt enable bit CRIE is set, an
interrupt request for vector CRINT or a PEC request will be generated.
Note: The non-maskable interrupt input pin NMI and the reset input RSTIN provide
another possibility for the CPU to react to an external input signal. NMI and RSTIN
are dedicated input pins which cause hardware traps.

Fast External Interrupts
The fast external interrupt pins are sampled every system clock cycle; that is, external
events are scanned and detected in time frames of 1/fSYS. The arbitration and processing
of these interrupt requests, however, is done with the normal timing.
The External Interrupt Control register EXICON selects the trigger transition (rising,
falling or both) individually for each of 8 fast external interrupts.
These fast external interrupts use the interrupt nodes and vectors of the CAPCOM
channels CC15 … CC8, so the capture/compare function cannot be used.

External Interrupt Source Control
The input source for each of the fast external interrupts (controlled via register EXICON)
can be derived from up to three associated port pins (standard pin EXnIN or two alternate
sources). Activating an alternate input source, for example, allows the detection of
transitions on the interface lines of disabled interfaces. Upon this trigger, the respective
interface can be reactivated and respond to the detected activity.
Source selection is controlled via registers EXISEL0 and EXISEL1. Besides selecting
one of the three possible input pins, two or all of them can also be logically combined.
This can be used to increase the number of wake-up lines or to define specific signal
combinations to trigger a wake-up interrupt.

External Interrupts During Sleep Mode
During Sleep Mode, all peripheral clock signals are deactivated. This also disables the
standard edge detection logic for the fast external interrupts. However, transitions on
these interrupt inputs must be recognized in order to initiate the wake-up. This is
accomplished by a special edge detection logic for the fast external interrupts which
requires no clock signal (therefore also works in Sleep mode) and is equipped with an
analog noise filter. This filter suppresses spikes (generated by noise) up to 10 ns. Input
pulses with a duration of 100 ns minimum are recognized and generate an interrupt
request.
This filter delays the recognition of an external wake-up signal by approximately 100 ns,
but the spike suppression ensures safe and robust operation of the sleep/wake-up
mechanism in an active environment.

External Interrupt Pulse Timing
External interrupt inputs are evaluated by a synchronous logic and by an asynchronous
logic. The synchronous logic supports the recognition of short interrupt pulses at higher
system frequencies, the asynchronous logic ensures recognition of interrupt pulses
during sleep mode, when no system clock is available.
An external interrupt signal is safely recognized in two cases:
•
•
if it is active for more than 100 ns (async. logic with spike filter), or
if it is active for more than 2 cycles of fSYS (sync. logic).
The interrupt signal is recognized after whatever condition becomes true first.
Note: After wake-up from Sleep mode, the time span until the PLL becomes locked is
not critical for new external interrupt pulses to be correctly synchronized, because
in this case the asynchronous logic will detect the external interrupt correctly, if it
is active for at least 100 ns.
Note: The NMI input features the same spike filter and the same timing requirements.
5.9
OCDS Requests
The OCDS module issues high-priority break requests or standard service requests. The
break requests are routed directly to the CPU (like the hardware trap requests) and are
prioritized there. Therefore, break requests ignore the standard interrupt arbitration and
receive highest priority.
The standard OCDS service requests are routed to the CPU Action Control Unit together
with the arbitrated interrupt/PEC requests. The service request with the higher priority is
sent to the CPU to be serviced. If both the interrupt/PEC request and the OCDS request
have the same priority level, the interrupt/PEC request wins.
This approach ensures precise break control, while affecting the system behavior as little
as possible.
The CPU Action Control Unit also routes back request acknowledges and denials from
the core to the corresponding requestor.

Service Request Latency
The numerous service requests of the XC164 (requests for interrupt or PEC service) are
generated asynchronously with respect to the execution of the instruction flow.
Therefore, these requests are arbitrated and are inserted into the current instruction
stream. This decouples the service request handling from the currently executed
instruction stream, but also leads to a certain latency.
The request latency is the time from activating a request signal at the interrupt controller
(ITC) until the corresponding instruction reaches the pipeline’s execution stage.
Table 5-14 lists the consecutive steps required for this process.

The actual response to an interrupt request may be delayed further depending on
programming techniques used by the application. The following factors can contribute:
•
•
Actual interrupt service routine is only reached via a JUMP from the interrupt vector
table.
Time-critical instructions can be placed directly into the interrupt vector table,
followed by a branch to the remaining part of the interrupt service routine. The space
between two adjacent vectors can be selected via bitfield VECSC in register
CPUCON1.
Context switching is executed before the intended action takes place (see
Section 5.6)
Time-critical instructions can be programmed “non-destructive” and can be executed
before switching context for the remaining part of the interrupt service routine.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
5.11
Trap Functions
Traps interrupt current execution in a manner similar to standard interrupts. However,
trap functions offer the possibility to bypass the interrupt system’s prioritization process
for cases in which immediate system reaction is required. Trap functions are not
maskable and always have priority over interrupt requests on any priority level.
The XC164 provides two different kinds of trapping mechanisms: Hardware Traps are
triggered by events that occur during program execution (such as illegal access or
undefined opcode); Software Traps are initiated via an instruction within the current
execution flow.
Software Traps
The TRAP instruction causes a software call to an interrupt service routine. The vector
number specified in the operand field of the trap instruction determines which vector
location in the vector table will be branched to.
Executing a TRAP instruction causes an effect similar to the occurrence of an interrupt
at the same vector. PSW, CSP (in segmentation mode), and IP are pushed on the
internal system stack and a jump is taken to the specified vector location. When a trap
is executed, the CSP for the trap service routine is loaded from register VECSEG. No
Interrupt Request flags are affected by the TRAP instruction. The interrupt service
routine called by a TRAP instruction must be terminated with a RETI (return from
interrupt) instruction to ensure correct operation.
Note: The CPU priority level and the selected register bank in register PSW are not
modified by the TRAP instruction, so the service routine is executed on the same
priority level from which it was invoked. Therefore, the service routine entered by
the TRAP instruction uses the original register bank and can be interrupted by
other traps or higher priority interrupts, other than when triggered by a hardware
event.
Hardware Traps
Hardware traps are issued by faults or specific system states which occur during runtime
of a program (not identified at assembly time). A hardware trap may also be triggered
intentionally, for example: to emulate additional instructions by generating an Illegal
Opcode trap. The XC164 distinguishes eight different hardware trap functions. When a
hardware trap condition has been detected, the CPU branches to the trap vector location
for the respective trap condition. The instruction which caused the trap is completed
before the trap handling routine is entered.
Hardware traps are non-maskable and always have priority over every other CPU
activity. If several hardware trap conditions are detected within the same instruction
cycle, the highest priority trap is serviced (see Table 5-3).

Interrupt and Trap Functions
PSW, CSP (in segmentation mode), and IP are pushed on the internal system stack and
the CPU level in register PSW is set to the highest possible priority level (level 15),
disabling all interrupts. The global register bank is selected. Execution branches to the
respective trap vector in the vector table. A trap service routine must be terminated with
the RETI instruction.
The eight hardware trap functions of the XC164 are divided into two classes:
Class A traps are:
•
•
•
•
External Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI)
Stack Overflow
Stack Underflow trap
Software Break
These traps share the same trap priority, but have individual vector addresses.
Class B traps are:
•
•
•
•
Undefined Opcode
Program Memory Access Error
Protection Fault
Illegal Word Operand Access
The Class B traps share the same trap priority and the same vector address.
The bit-addressable Trap Flag Register (TFR) allows a trap service routine to identify the
kind of trap which caused the exception. Each trap function is indicated by a separate
request flag. When a hardware trap occurs, the corresponding request flag in register
TFR is set to ‘1’.
The reset functions (hardware, software, watchdog) may be regarded as a type of trap.
Reset functions have the highest system priority (trap priority III).
Class A traps have the second highest priority (trap priority II), on the 3rd rank are
Class B traps, so a Class A trap can interrupt a Class B trap. If more than one Class A
trap occur at a time, they are prioritized internally, with the NMI trap at the highest and
the software break trap at the lowest priority.
In the case where e.g. an Undefined Opcode trap (class B) occurs simultaneously with
an NMI trap (class A), both the NMI and the UNDOPC flag is set, the IP of the instruction
with the undefined opcode is pushed onto the system stack, but the NMI trap is executed.
After return from the NMI service routine, the IP is popped from the stack and
immediately pushed again because of the pending UNDOPC trap.
Note: The trap service routine must clear the respective trap flag; otherwise, a new trap
will be requested after exiting the service routine. Setting a trap request flag by
software causes the same effects as if it had been set by hardware.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
Class A Traps
Class A traps are generated by the high priority system NMI or by special CPU events
such as the software break, a stack overflow, or an underflow event. Class A traps are
not used to indicate hardware failures. After a Class A event, a dedicated service routine
is called to react on the events. Each Class A trap has its own vector location in the
vector table. Class A traps cannot interrupt atomic/extend sequences and I/O accesses
in progress, because after finishing the service routine, the instruction flow must be
further correctly executed. For example, an interrupted extend sequence cannot be
restarted. All Class A traps are generated in the pipeline during the execution of
instructions, except for NMI, which is an asynchronous external event. Class A trap
events can be generated only during the memory stage of execution, so traps cannot be
generated by two different instructions in the pipeline in the same CPU cycle. The
execution of instructions which caused a Class A trap event is always completed. In the
case of an atomic/extend sequence or I/O read access in progress, the complete
sequence is executed. Upon completion of the instruction or sequence, the pipeline is
canceled and the IP of the instruction following the last one executed is pushed on the
stack. Therefore, in the case of a Class A trap, the stack always contains the IP of the
first not-executed instruction in the instruction flow.
Note: The Branch Folding Unit allows the execution of a branch instruction in parallel
with the preceding instruction. The pre-processed branch instruction is combined
with the preceding instruction. The branch is executed together with the instruction
which caused the Class A trap. The IP of the first following not-executed
instruction in the instruction flow is then pushed on the stack.
If more than one Class A trap occur at the same time, they are prioritized internally. The
NMI trap has the highest priority and the software break has the lowest.
Note: In the case of two different Class A traps occurring simultaneously, both trap flags
are set. The IP of the instruction following the last one executed is pushed on the
stack. The trap with the higher priority is executed. After return from the service
routine, the IP is popped from the stack and immediately pushed again because
of the other pending Class A trap (unless the trap related to the second trap flag
in TFR has been cleared by the first trap service routine).

Interrupt and Trap Functions
Class B Traps
Class B traps are generated by unrecoverable hardware failures. In the case of a
hardware failure, the CPU must immediately start a failure service routine. Class B traps
can interrupt an atomic/extend sequence and an I/O read access. After finishing the
Class B service routine, a restoration of the interrupted instruction flow is not possible.
All Class B traps have the same priority (trap priority I). When several Class B traps
become active at the same time, the corresponding flags in the TFR register are set and
the trap service routine is entered. Because all Class B traps have the same vector, the
priority of service of simultaneously occurring Class B traps is determined by software in
the trap service routine.
The Access Error is an asynchronous external (to the CPU) event while all other Class B
traps are generated in the pipeline during the execution of instructions. Class B trap
events can be generated only during the memory stage of execution, so traps cannot be
generated by two different instructions in the pipeline in the same CPU cycle.
Instructions which caused a Class B trap event are always executed, then the pipeline
is canceled and the IP of the instruction following the one which caused the trap is
pushed on the stack. Therefore, the stack always contains the IP of the first following
not-executed instruction in the instruction flow.
Note: The Branch Folding Unit allows the execution of a branch instruction in parallel
with the preceding instruction. The pre-processed branch instruction is combined
with the preceding instruction. The branch is executed together with the instruction
causing the Class B trap. The IP of the first following not-executed instruction in
the instruction flow is pushed on the stack.
A Class A trap occurring during the execution of a Class B trap service routine will be
serviced immediately. During the execution of a Class A trap service routine, however,
any Class B trap occurring will not be serviced until the Class A trap service routine is
exited with a RETI instruction. In this case, the occurrence of the Class B trap condition
is stored in the TFR register, but the IP value of the instruction which caused this trap is
lost.
Note: If a Class A trap occurs simultaneously with a Class B trap, both trap flags are set.
The IP of the instruction following the one which caused the trap is pushed into the
stack, and the Class A trap is executed. If this occurs during execution of an
atomic/extend sequence or I/O read access in progress, then the presence of the
Class B trap breaks the protection of atomic/extend operations and the Class A
trap will be executed immediately without waiting for the sequence completion.
After return from the service routine, the IP is popped from the system stack and
immediately pushed again because of the other pending Class B trap. In this
situation, the restoration of the interrupted instruction flow is not possible.

Interrupt and Trap Functions
External NMI Trap
Whenever a high to low transition on the dedicated external NMI pin (Non-Maskable
Interrupt) is detected, the NMI flag in register TFR is set and the CPU will enter the NMI
trap routine.
Stack Overflow Trap
Whenever the stack pointer is implicitly decremented and the stack pointer is equal to
the value in the stack overflow register STKOV, the STKOF flag in register TFR is set
and the CPU will enter the stack overflow trap routine.
For recovery from stack overflow, it must be ensured that there is enough excess space
on the stack to save the current system state twice (PSW, IP, in segmented mode also
CSP). Otherwise, a system reset should be generated.
Stack Underflow Trap
Whenever the stack pointer is implicitly incremented and the stack pointer is equal to the
value in the stack underflow register STKUN, the STKUF flag is set in register TFR and
the CPU will enter the stack underflow trap routine.
Software Break Trap
When the instruction currently being executed by the CPU is a SBRK instruction, the
SOFTBRK flag is set in register TFR and the CPU enters the software break debug
routine. The flag generation of the software break instruction can be disabled by the Onchip Emulation Module. In this case, the instruction only breaks the instruction flow and
signals this event to the debugger, the flag is not set and the trap will not be executed.
Undefined Opcode Trap
When the instruction currently decoded by the CPU does not contain a valid XC164
opcode, the UNDOPC flag is set in register TFR and the CPU enters the undefined
opcode trap routine. The instruction that causes the undefined opcode trap is executed
as a NOP.
This can be used to emulate unimplemented instructions. The trap service routine can
examine the faulting instruction to decode operands for unimplemented opcodes based
on the stacked IP. In order to resume processing, the stacked IP value must be
incremented by the size of the undefined instruction, which is determined by the user,
before a RETI instruction is executed.

Program Memory Access Error
When a program memory access error is detected, the PACER flag is set in register TFR
and the CPU enters the PMI access error trap routine. The access error is reported in
the following cases:
•
•
•
•
•
access to Flash memory while it is disabled
access to Flash memory from outside while read-protection is active
double bit error detected when reading Flash memory
access to reserved locations (see memory map)
access to Monitor RAM, if not in emulation mode
In case of an access error, additionally the soft-trap code 1E9BH is issued.
Protection Fault Trap
Whenever one of the special protected instructions is executed where the opcode of that
instruction is not repeated twice in the second word of the instruction and the byte
following the opcode is not the complement of the opcode, the PRTFLT flag in register
TFR is set and the CPU enters the protection fault trap routine. The protected
instructions include DISWDT, EINIT, IDLE, PWRDN, SRST, ENWDT and SRVWDT.
The instruction that causes the protection fault trap is executed like a NOP.
Illegal Word Operand Access Trap
Whenever a word operand read or write access is attempted to an odd byte address, the
ILLOPA flag in register TFR is set and the CPU enters the illegal word operand access
trap routine.

General System Control Functions
The XC164 System Control Unit (SCU) summarizes a number of central control tasks
and product specific features. These features include functional modules such as the
Watchdog Timer (WDT) or the Clock Generation Unit (CGU), as well as basic functions
such as the register protection mechanism or the reset generation.
The following general functions are provided:
•
•
•
•
•
The System Reset is generated by the Reset Control Block and handles the reset
and startup behavior (internal initialization) of the chip. It controls the reset triggers
as well as the reset timing. This block controls also the basic configuration of the
XC164 via external hardware.
The Clock Generation Unit (CGU) provides the on-chip oscillator and the Phase
Locked Loop (PLL). This block generates all clock signals for the XC164 and
distributes them to the respective modules. Also the status of the clock generation
system is indicated.
The Central System Control Functions comprise all central control tasks like
security level selection and system behavior in Sleep mode and Powerdown mode.
Depending on the application state, different security levels (like protected and
unprotected mode) are supported by the security level control state machine.
The Watchdog Timer (WDT) represents one of the fail-safe mechanisms which
have been implemented to prevent the controller from malfunctioning. It can detect
long term malfunctions and is always enabled after chip initialization. The WDT can
operate in Compatible mode or in Enhanced WDT mode.
The Identification Control Block supports a set of six identification registers for
identification of the most important silicon parameters (chip manufacturer, chip type
and its properties). This information can be used for automatic test selection.

System Reset
The internal system reset function provides initialization of the XC164 into a defined
default state. The default state is invoked either by asserting a hardware reset signal on
pin RSTIN (Hardware Reset Input), by executing the SRST instruction (Software Reset),
or by an overflow of the watchdog timer.
Whenever one of these conditions occurs, the microcontroller is reset into a predefined
default state through an internal reset procedure. When a software reset is initiated,
pending internal hold states are cancelled and the current internal access cycle (if any)
is completed. An external bus cycle is completed. Afterwards, the bus pin drivers and the
IO pin drivers are switched off (tristate). Hardware reset and watchdog reset immediately
abort all actions.
The internal reset procedure is executed in several consecutive phases. The order of
these phases depends on the reset source. In general, reset is triggered asynchronously
(external) or synchronously (internal), it is always terminated synchronously.

Reset Sources and Phases
The XC164 executes a reset in several phases whose sequence depends on the reset
trigger (see Table 6-1).
External Reset Phase
A hardware reset is asynchronously triggered when the reset input signal RSTIN is
recognized low. A spike suppression input filter in the RSTIN line suppresses all signals
shorter than 10 ns. To ensure the recognition of the RSTIN signal, it must be held low for
at least 100 ns so it will safely pass the reset input filter. This is also required after the
supply voltages have become stable.
Note: The minimum duration of the external reset must ensure that the hardware
configuration signals have reached their intended logic levels.

An external pull-up device connected to an external switch provides a manual reset.
RSTIN may also be connected to the output of other logic for generating a warm
reset.
Note: During the external reset phase the complete chip is in reset state. The external
reset phase is left synchronously, when the RSTIN level goes inactive (high).
Pre-Reset Phase
The pre-reset phase is triggered by a software reset. During the pre-reset phase, the
CPU first runs its pipeline (including all write back buffers) empty, and then indicates the
software reset request to the system control unit. The pipeline stays empty after this
request trigger is activated.
As soon as the software reset request occurs, the SCU requests a shutdown from the
active modules equipped with shutdown handshake (see Section 6.3.3). The pre-reset
phase is complete as soon as all modules acknowledge the shutdown state.
Upon a shutdown request the EBC will finish the currently running bus cycle.
Internal Reset Phase
At the beginning of the internal reset phase the internal reset condition becomes active,
that means, the internal reset signal is actually applied to the modules. If the reset was
triggered by hardware, it may be active already.
Note: The reset control block (including the watchdog timer) is not reset, of course.
The duration of the internal reset phase is determined by the reset-length-control bitfield
RSTLEN in register RSTCON. The WDT low byte is used for counting the reset duration.
When entering the internal reset phase, the timer is cleared and then counts up with
frequency fWDT. The default count frequency after a hardware reset is fWDT = fSYS/2 =
fMC/2. Internal reset triggers do not change the current clock setting and the value of
bitfield WDTIN, so the previously selected fWDT is used.
The actual duration of the internal reset sequence can therefore be calculated using the
following formula:

Status After Reset
Most units of the XC164 enter a well-defined default status after a reset is completed.
This ensures repeatable start conditions and avoids spurious activities after reset.
Reset Values for the XC164 Registers
During the reset sequence, the registers of the XC164 are preset with a default value.
Most SFRs, including system registers and peripheral control and data registers, are
cleared to zero, so all peripherals and the interrupt system are off or idle after reset. A
few exceptions to this rule provide a first pre-initialization, which is either fixed or
controlled by input pins. A number of registers are reset only upon a hardware reset, after
a software or WDT reset they retain their previous values (see Table 6-2).

Operation after Reset
After the internal reset condition is removed, the XC164 fetches the first instruction from
the selected program memory location (depending on the configuration). As a rule, this
first location holds a branch instruction to the actual initialization routine that may be
located anywhere in the address space.
Note: If the Bootstrap Loader Mode was activated during a hardware reset, the XC164
does not fetch instructions from the program memory.
The standard bootstrap loader expects data via serial interface ASC0.
Watchdog Timer Operation after Reset
The watchdog timer continues running after the internal reset is complete. It will be
clocked with the currently selected clock signal fWDT. After a watchdog/software reset
fWDT is not changed, after a hardware reset the frequency is fWDT = fSYS/2 = fMC/2. The
default reload value is 00H. Thus, a watchdog timer overflow will occur 216 clock cycles
(217 fMC cycles after a hardware reset) after completion of the internal reset (depending
on the selected reset length), unless it is disabled, serviced, or reprogrammed in the
meantime. If the system reset was caused by a watchdog timer overflow, the WDTR
(Watchdog Timer Reset Indication) flag in register SYSSTAT will be set to 1. This
indicates the cause of the internal reset to the software initialization routine. WDTR is
reset to 0 after each other reset. After the internal reset is complete, the operation of the
watchdog timer can be disabled by the DISWDT (Disable Watchdog Timer) instruction
prior to the EINIT instruction if using compatibility mode, or anytime in enhanced mode.
The On-Chip RAM Areas after Reset
The contents of the major parts of the on-chip RAMs are preserved during a software
reset and a WDT reset. There are two exceptions to this rule:
•
•
A part of the DPRAM (the area 00’FBA0H … 00’FC1FH) may be altered during the
initialization phase (see Table 6-1) and, therefore, should not store data to be
preserved beyond a WDT/SW reset.
During bootstrap loader operation the serially received data is stored in the PSRAM
starting at location E0’0000H.
Because a hardware reset can occur asynchronously to an internal operation, it may
interrupt a current write operation and so inadvertently corrupt the contents of on-chip
RAM. RAM contents are preserved if the hardware reset occurs during Power-Down
mode, during Sleep mode, or during Idle mode with no PEC transfers enabled.
Note: After a power-up hardware reset the RAM contents are undefined, of course.

External Bus Interface after Reset
If an external start is selected after reset the EBC is initialized accordingly and some of
the port pins of the XC164 are controlled accordingly. Pin ALE is held low through an
internal pull-down, and pins RD and WR are held high through internal pull-ups. Also, all
pins which can be configured for CS output will be pulled high during each reset.
The registers EBCMOD0, EBCMOD1, TCONCS0, and FCONCS0 are initialized
according to the configuration selected via PORT0.
When an external start is selected (pin EA = 0):
•
•
•
•
•
Bit ENCS in register FCONCS0 is set to 1
Bus Type field (BTYP) in register FCONCS0 is initialized according to
P0L.7 and P0L.6
A default bus timing (depending on the bus mode) is selected via register TCONCS0
The required pins of PORT0 and PORT1 are assigned via register EBCMOD1
Bitfields WRCFG, CSPEN, and SAPEN in register EBCMOD0 are set as selected via
PORT0 (WRC, CSSEL, SASEL)
When an internal start is selected (pin EA = 1):
•
•
Register EBCMOD0 is set to 7400H (EBC-pins disabled)
Registers EBCMOD1, FCONCS0, and TCONCS0 are cleared
Note: This initial configuration of the EBC may be changed by user software at any time.
When the internal reset is complete, the configuration of PORT0, PORT1, Port 4 and of
the BHE signal (High Byte Enable, alternate function of P3.12) depends on the bus type
selected during reset. If any of the external bus modes was selected during reset,
PORT0 will operate in the selected bus mode. Port 4 will output the selected number of
segment address lines (all zero after reset) and/or the selected number of CS lines (CS0
will be 0, while the other active CS lines will be 1). If no memory accesses above
64 Kbytes are to be performed, segmentation may be disabled.
Ports after Reset
During the internal reset sequence, all port pins of the XC164 are configured as inputs
by clearing the associated direction registers, and their pin drivers are switched to the
high impedance state. This ensures that the XC164 and external devices will not try to
drive the same pin to different levels.
Pins assigned to the EBC become active after an external-start reset.
Note: Pull-ups for configuration and possible CS signals are active during each reset.
When the on-chip bootstrap loader was activated during reset, pin TxD0 (alternate port
function) will be switched to output mode after the reception of the zero byte.
All other pins remain in the high-impedance state until they are changed by software or
peripheral operation.

Reset Output Pin
The RSTOUT pin is dedicated to the generation of a reset signal for external system
components such as peripherals or Flash memories. The behaviour of RSTOUT can be
selected via software and can so be adapted to the respective external system.
RSTOUT is activated asynchronously with an external hardware reset. It may also be
activated (selectable) synchronously with an internal software or watchdog reset.
RSTOUT is deactivated at a selectable time:
•
•
•
optionally at the end of reset (supports a reset signal to an external program Flash)
upon the execution of the EINIT instruction (latest)
at an earlier time via user software
This allows the complete configuration of the controller including its on-chip peripheral
units before releasing the reset signal for the external peripherals of the system.
Note: RSTOUT will float during adapt mode (see register RSTCFG in Section 6.1.4).
RSTOUT is controlled via several bits in registers RSTCON (see Table 6-3). The
resulting output signal timing is shown in Figure 6-2.

ROCON
Lets the user software select if RSTOUT is activated upon any reset (0)
or only upon an external reset (1). If ROCON = 0 bit RODIS is cleared
and pin RSTOUT is activated after a software or WDT reset. The lower
part of Figure 6-2 shows both cases (see “Automatic Activation”).
ROCOFF
Lets the user software select if RSTOUT is deactivated (1)
automatically at the end of reset (after the initialization phase). See
“Automatic Deactivation” in Figure 6-2. Bit RODIS is set in this case.
If no automatic deactivation is selected (ROCOFF = 0) user software
may set bit RODIS at any time.
Automatic Deactivation can also be selected by hardware configuration.
This supports an external start out of an external Flash memory.
RORMV
Lets the user remove the RSTOUT function from pin P20.12 and free it
for general purpose IO.
P20.12 IO can also be selected by hardware configuration.
Note: At the very latest, RSTOUT is deactivated by execution of the EINIT instruction,
independent of software selections (register RSTCON).

Application-Specific Initialization Routine
After a reset, the modules of the XC164 must be initialized to enable their operation on
a given application. This initialization depends on the task to be performed by the XC164
in that application and on some system properties such as operating frequency, external
circuitry connected, etc.
Typically, the following initializations should be done before the XC164 is prepared to run
the actual application software:
Bus Interface
The external bus interface can be reconfigured after an external reset because the EBC
registers are initialized to default values and may not represent the optimum bus
configuration. The programmable address windows can be enabled in order to adapt the
bus cycle characteristics to various memory areas or peripherals. Also, after a singlechip mode reset, the external bus interface can be enabled and configured.
Programmable program memory (on-chip or external) can be programmed, for instance,
with data received over a serial link.
Note: Bootstrap loader mode can be used for initial Flash or OTP programming.
System Stack
The default setup for the system stack (size, stack pointer, upper and lower limit
registers) can be adjusted to application-specific values. After reset, registers SP and
STKUN contain the same reset value 00’FC00H, while register STKOV contains
00’FA00H. With the default reset initialization, 256 words of system stack are available
in the DPRAM, where the system stack selected by the SP grows downwards from
00’FBFEH. The system stack may be moved to the DSRAM and its size can be adjusted
to the application’s requirements.
Note: The interrupt system, which is disabled upon completion of the internal reset,
should remain disabled until the SP is initialized.
Traps (including NMI) may occur, although the interrupt system is still disabled.
Register Bank
The location of a global register bank is defined by the context pointer (CP) and can be
adjusted to an application-specific bank before the general purpose registers (GPRs) are
used. After reset, register CP contains the value FC00H, i.e. the register bank selected
by the CP grows upward from 00’FC00H.

General System Control Functions
On-Chip RAM
Depending on the application, the user may wish to initialize portions of the internal
writable memory (DPRAM/DSRAM/PSRAM) before normal program operation. After the
register bank has been selected by programming the CP register, the desired portions
of the internal memory can easily be initialized via indirect addressing.
Interrupt System
After reset, the individual interrupt nodes and the global interrupt system are disabled. In
order to enable interrupt requests, the nodes must be assigned to their respective
interrupt priority levels and must be enabled. The vector table can be adjusted if the
default properties do not fit. Register VECSEG defines the vector table’s location, bitfield
VECSC in register CPUCON1 defines the vector spacing. The vector locations must
receive pointers to the respective exception handlers. The interrupt system must globally
be enabled by setting bit IEN in register PSW. To avoid such problems as the corruption
of internal memory locations caused by stack operations using an uninitialized stack
pointer, care must be taken not to enable the interrupt system before the initialization is
complete.
Ports
Generally, all ports of the XC164 are switched to input upon reset activation. After reset,
some pins may be automatically controlled, such as bus interface pins for an external
start, TxD in Boot mode, etc. Pins to be used for general purpose IO must be initialized
via software. The required mode (input/output, open drain/push pull, input threshold,
etc.) depends on the intended function for a given pin.
Peripherals
Upon reset activation the XC164’s on-chip peripheral modules enter a defined default
state (see respective peripheral description) in which they are disabled from operation.
In order to use a certain peripheral it must be initialized according to its intended
operation in the application.
This includes enabling the peripheral, selecting the operating mode (such as
counter/timer), operating parameters (such as baudrate), enabling interface pins (if
required), assigning interrupt nodes to the respective priority levels, etc.
After these standard initialization actions, application-specific actions may be required,
such as asserting certain levels to output pins, sending codes via interfaces, latching
input levels, etc.

Watchdog Timer
After reset, the watchdog timer is active and counting its default period. If the watchdog
timer is to remain active the desired period should be programmed by selecting the
appropriate prescaler value and reload value. Otherwise, the watchdog timer must be
disabled before EINIT.
Termination of Initialization
The software initialization routine should be terminated with the EINIT instruction. This
instruction has been implemented as a protected instruction.
Execution of the EINIT instruction has the following effects:
•
•
•
Disables the action of the DISWDT instruction (unless enhanced mode is selected),
Switches the register security level to “write-protected mode” (see Section 6.3.5),
Causes the RSTOUT pin to go high if it is not high already
(this signal can be used to indicate the end of the initialization routine and the proper
operation of the microcontroller to external hardware).

System Startup Configuration
Although most of the programmable features of the XC164 are selected by software
either during the initialization phase or repeatedly during program execution, some
features must be selected earlier because they are used for the first access of the
program execution (for example, internal or external start selected via EA).
These configurations are accomplished by latching the logic levels at a number of pins
at the end of the internal reset sequence. During reset, internal pull-up/pull-down devices
are active on those lines. They ensure inactive/default levels at pins which are not driven
externally. External pull-down/pull-up devices may override the default levels in order to
select a specific configuration. Many configurations can, therefore, be coded with a
minimum of external circuitry.
Note: The load on those pins to be latched for configuration must be small enough for
the internal pull-up/pull-down device to sustain the default level, or external
pull-up/pull-down devices must ensure this level.
Those pins whose default level will be overridden must be pulled low/high
externally.
Ensure that the valid target levels are reached by the end of the reset sequence.
There is a specific application note to illustrate this.
A hardware reset can be terminated as soon as the target levels are reached. The
XC164 automatically waits until oscillator, PLL, and Flash are up and operable.
The levels on pins EA, RD, ALE, and WR are latched whenever the internal reset phase
is left after a hardware reset (see Table 6-1). These four pins must be controlled
externally in any case. In the case of an external start (EA = 0) also PORT0 is latched to
provide additional configuration inputs.

2) P20.12 enabled instead of signal RSTOUT, can be used in a single-chip system without external bus system.
Pin WR is evaluated independently of pins EA, RD and ALE.
Note: The pull-ups/pull-downs on the configuration pins are activated at the beginning of
a hardware reset.
They are deactivated after latching the configuration information.
The further startup behavior of the XC164 can be configured in several ways:
•
•
Read the configuration from PORT0 (EA = 0)
Use a fixed default configuration (EA = 1)
The respective configuration is stored into register RSTCFG and the XC164 is
accordingly initialized. User software may read this register in order to determine the
actual configuration. The user can change this startup configuration at any time via the
dedicated configuration registers, for example with the EBCMOD0/1 registers or with the
PLLCON register.
Note: In Single-Chip Mode (internal start with EA = 1) the default configuration selects
clock generation in bypass mode with factor 2:1 ensuring proper operation for the
defined input frequency range of up to 50 MHz.

2) This selection enables bypass mode.
Note: The reset value of register RSTCFG depends on the values latched from PORT0
in case of an external reset. After a single-chip reset (EA = 1) register RSTCFG is
loaded with the default value 0DFFH.
The pins which control operation of the internal control logic, the clock configuration, and
the reserved pins are evaluated only during a hardware triggered reset sequence.
The configuration via PORT0 is latched in register RSTCFG for subsequent evaluation

Hardware Configuration in External Start Mode
For an external start mode reset (indicated by EA = 0) the configuration value (register
RSTCFG) is copied from PORT0. In this case, external circuitry (pull-ups/pull-downs) on
PORT0 generate application-specific configuration values.
Note: To support hardware configuration with minimum external circuitry, the PORT0
pins have internal pull-up devices activated upon each reset.
Clock Generation Control
Pins P0H.7, P0H.6, and P0H.5 (CLKCFG) select the initial clock generation mode during
reset. The oscillator clock either directly feeds the CPU and peripherals (direct drive), is
divided by 2 or is fed to the on-chip PLL which then provides the master clock signal
(selectable multiple of the oscillator frequency, i.e. the input frequency). This coarse
selection adapts the clock generation unit to the selected oscillator frequency. The user
initialization code may then exactly select the required configuration by updating register
PLLCON.

Segment Address Lines
Pins P0H.4 and P0H.3 (SALSEL) define the number of active segment address lines
during reset. This allows selection of which Port 4 pins drive address lines. Depending
on the system architecture, the required address space is chosen and accessible right
from the start; so, the initialization routine can directly access all locations without prior
programming. The required Port 4 pins are automatically switched to address output
mode. The user initialization code may then exactly select the required configuration by
updating register EBCMOD0.

Write Configuration
Pin P0H.0 (WRC) selects the initial operation of the control pins WR and BHE during
reset. When high, this pin selects the standard function, i.e. WR control and BHE. When
low, it selects the alternate configuration, i.e. WRH and WRL. Thus, even the first access
after a reset can go to a memory controlled via WRH and WRL. The user initialization
code may then exactly select the required configuration by updating register EBCMOD0.
Default: Standard function (WR control and BHE).
External Bus Type
Pins P0L.7 and P0L.6 (BUSTYP) select the external bus type during reset, if an external
start is selected via pin EA. This allows configuration of the external bus interface of the
XC164 even for the first code fetch after reset. P0L.7 controls the data bus width, while
P0L.6 controls the address output (multiplexed or demultiplexed). The user initialization

the 16-bit intra-segment address, while PORT0 or P0L (according to the selected data
bus width) drives the output data.
For a 16-bit data bus, BHE is automatically enabled, for an 8-bit data bus, BHE is

The On-Chip Bootstrap Loader allows the start code to be moved into the internal
PSRAM of the XC164 via the serial interface ASC0. The XC164 will then execute the
loaded start code out of the PSRAM.
Default: The XC164 starts fetching code from location 00’0000H, the bootstrap loader is
off.
Adapt Mode
Pin P0L.1 (ADP) selects the Adapt Mode when latched low at the end of reset. In this
mode, the XC164 goes into a passive state similar to its state during reset. The pins of
the XC164 float to tristate or are deactivated via internal pull-up/pull-down devices, as
described for the reset state. Additionally, the RSTOUT pin floats to tristate rather than
being driven low. The on-chip oscillator and the realtime clock are disabled.
This mode allows a XC164 mounted to a board to be virtually switched off. This enables
an emulator to control the board’s circuitry even though the original XC164 remains in
place. The original XC164 may resume control of the board after a reset sequence with
P0L.1 high. Please note that adapt mode overrides any other configuration via PORT0.
Default: Adapt Mode is off.
Note: When XTAL1 is fed by an external clock generator (while XTAL2 is left open), this
clock signal may also be used to drive the emulator device.
However, if a crystal is used, the emulator device’s oscillator can use this crystal
only if at least XTAL2 of the original device is disconnected from the circuitry (the
output XTAL2 will be driven high in Adapt Mode).
Adapt mode can be activated only upon an external reset (EA = 0). Pin P0L.1 is
not evaluated upon a single-chip reset (EA = 1).

Pin P0L.0 (ROC) selects the initial deactivation mode of pin RSTOUT after reset. When
high, this pin selects the standard function, i.e. RSTOUT is deactivated by user software
(or at the very latest after the execution of EINIT). When low, it selects immediate
deactivation, i.e. RSTOUT is deactivated automatically at the end of the internal reset
state. Thus, even the first access after a reset can go to a memory controlled by the
RSTOUT signal (e.g. an external Flash). The user initialization code may select the
required configuration for each subsequent reset.
Default: Standard function (RSTOUT deactivated by user software).
In addition, the RSTOUT signal can be disabled, so the pin can be used for general
purpose IO. This is selected by pulling pin WR low during a single-chip-mode reset with
EA = 1. The user initialization code may select the required configuration by updating bit
RORMV in register RSTCON.
Oscillator Watchdog Control
The on-chip oscillator watchdog (OWD) may be disabled via hardware by (externally)
pulling the RD line low upon a reset (see Table 6-4). This option is valid for bypass
operation. The user initialization code may select the required configuration by updating
register PLLCON.
Default: Oscillator watchdog is active (PLL is on).
Note: If direct drive or prescaler operation is selected as basic clock generation mode
(see above) the PLL is switched off whenever bit OWDDIS is set (via software or
via hardware configuration).

Default Configuration in Single-Chip Mode
For a single-chip mode reset (indicated by EA = 1) the additional configuration via
PORT0 is ignored and a fixed configuration value is used instead (RSTCFG = 0DFFH).
In this case, PORT0 needs no external circuitry (pull-ups/pull-downs).
This fixed default configuration selects a safe worst-case configuration. The initialization
software can then modify these parameters and select the intended configuration for a
given application. Table 6-10 lists the respective default configuration values which are

Clock Generation
All activities of the XC164’s controller hardware and its on-chip peripherals are controlled
by clock signals which are generated by the Clock Generation Unit (CGU).
This reference clock is generated in three stages:
Oscillator
The on-chip Pierce oscillator (main oscillator) can either run with an external crystal and
appropriate oscillator circuitry or it can be driven by an external oscillator or another clock
source.
Clock Generation and Frequency Control
The input clock signal of the main oscillator feeds the controller hardware:
•
•
directly, divided by a programmable prescaler factor (1 … 60), either providing
phase-coupled operation (factor = 1) or operating the device at low frequencies to
reduce power consumption (factor >> 1)
via an on-chip Phase Locked Loop (PLL) providing maximum performance on low
input frequency
Clock Distribution
The clock signals are distributed via separate clock drivers which feed the CPU itself and
groups of peripheral modules. Certain sections of the device can be supplied with a
prescaled clock signal.
Note: The RTC is fed with the prescaled main oscillator clock via a separate clock driver,
so it is not affected by the clock control functions.

Oscillator
The main oscillator of the XC164 is a power optimized Pierce oscillator providing an
inverter and a feedback element. Pins XTAL1 and XTAL2 connect the inverter to the
external crystal. The standard external oscillator circuitry (see Figure 6-4) comprises the
crystal, two low end capacitors and series resistor (Rx2) to limit the current through the
crystal. A test resistor (RQ) may be temporarily inserted to measure the oscillation
allowance (negative resistance) of the oscillator circuitry.

External (Main) Oscillator Circuitry
The on-chip oscillator is optimized for an input frequency range of 4 to 16 MHz.
An external clock signal (e.g. from an external oscillator or from a master device) may
be fed to the input XTAL1. The Pierce oscillator then is not required to support the
oscillation itself but is rather driven by the input signal. In this case the input frequency
range may be 0 to 50 MHz (please note that the maximum applicable input frequency is
limited by the device’s maximum clock frequency).
Note: Oscillator measurement within the final target system is strongly recommended
to verify the input amplitude and to determine the actual oscillation allowance
(margin or negative resistance) for the oscillator-crystal system.
The measurement technique is described in a specific application note about
oscillators (available via your representative or www).
The main oscillator is automatically switched off during Power-Down mode and Sleep
mode, unless the RTC remains on. Switching off the main oscillator is useful to further
reduce the power consumption during phases where only minimum system life functions
must be maintained.

Main Oscillator Gain Reduction
The main oscillator starts with a high drive level (gain) during and after a hardware reset
to ensure safe startup behavior in the beginning (force the crystal oscillation). The
beginning of the crystal oscillation is indicated by bit OSCLOCK (= 1) in register
SYSSTAT. When a stable oscillation has been reached after oscillator startup (amplitude
more than 90% of its maximum), the gain of the main oscillator can be reduced. This
reduces the oscillator’s power consumption which is especially important in power
reduction modes.
This gain reduction is induced by software and so is transparent in existing software. The
oscillator gain is reduced by setting bit OSCGRED in register SYSCON0 (see
Section 6.3). Because the oscillator amplitude is not measured directly, a delay of
approximately 215 oscillator clock cycles is required before enabling the gain reduction.
The occurrence of 215 consecutive oscillator clock cycles is indicated by bit OSCSTAB
(= 1) in register SYSSTAT.
The oscillator gain reduction is disabled while OSCSTAB = 0. Therefore, software can
set bit OSCGRED at any time. If OSCGRED is set before OSCSTAB = 1 the gain
reduction is automatically delayed.
Note: After the delay indicated by OSCSTAB = 1 the oscillation has reached more than
90% of its maximum amplitude with an optimized oscillator circuitry.
Oscillator measurement (margin or negative resistance) for the oscillator-crystal
system must be executed also in reduced-gain mode if this mode is intended in
the application.
If the main oscillator is switched off during sleep mode, both bits OSCLOCK and
OSCSTAB are cleared and the oscillator startup begins anew. This ensures a safe
oscillator startup after wake-up.

Clock Generation and Frequency Control
The Clock Generation Unit uses a programmable on-chip PLL with multiple prescalers
to generate the clock signals for the XC164 with high flexibility. The internal operation of
the XC164 is controlled by the internal master clock fMC. The master clock fMC is the
reference clock signal, and is used for TwinCAN and is output to the external system.
CPU and EBC are clocked with the CPU clock signal fCPU. The CPU clock can have the
same frequency as the master clock (fCPU = fMC) or can be the master clock divided by
two: fCPU = fMC/2. This factor is selected by bit CPSYS in register SYSCON1.
The other peripherals are supplied with the system clock signal fSYS which has the same
frequency as the CPU clock signal (fSYS = fCPU).
The oscillator clock frequency can be multiplied by the on-chip PLL (by a programmable
factor) or can be divided by a programmable prescaler factor. With these options the
master clock can be adjusted to a wide range of frequencies. PLL operation achieves
maximum performance even from moderate crystal frequencies, dividing the oscillator
clock runs the system at low frequency, greatly reducing its power consumption.

Note: The divider factor for the CPU clock and the system clock is selected by bit CPSYS

The master clock signal is generated by the highly-flexible on-chip PLL. The PLL block
can multiply the oscillator clock frequency by a programmable factor (1:0.15 … 1:10) to
achieve high performance even from moderate crystal frequencies. In bypass mode the
oscillator clock is divided by a factor of 1:1 … 60:1 to achieve direct coupling to the
oscillator clock signal (1:1) or reduce the system frequency to save power.
The used mechanism to generate the master clock and the respective parameters are
selected via the PLL control register PLLCON.

PLL Operation
When PLL operation is configured (PLLCTRL = 11B), the XC164’s input clock is fed to
the on-chip Phase Locked Loop circuit which can multiply its frequency by a factor of up
to F = 10 and generates a master clock signal, i.e. fMC = fOSC × F.
The on-chip PLL circuit allows operation of the XC164 on a low frequency external clock
while still providing maximum performance. The PLL also provides fail safe mechanisms
which allow the detection of frequency deviations and the execution of emergency
actions in case of an external clock failure.

General System Control Functions
When the PLL detects a missing input clock signal it generates an interrupt request. This
warning interrupt indicates that the PLL frequency is no longer locked, i.e. no longer
related to the oscillator frequency. This occurs when the input clock is unstable and
especially when the input clock fails completely, such as due to a broken crystal. In this
case the synchronization mechanism will reduce the PLL output frequency down to the
PLL’s base frequency (depending on the VCO band selected by bitfield PLLVB) and
select the safety output divider factor K = 16. The base frequency is still generated and
allows the CPU to execute emergency actions in case of a loss of the external clock. The
master clock in this emergency case is, therefore, fMCe = fVCObase/16.
Note: During a hardware reset the lowest VCO band is selected together with factor 16.
On power-up the PLL provides a stable clock signal, even if there is no external clock
signal (in this case the PLL will run on its base frequency). The PLL starts synchronizing
with the external clock signal as soon as it is available. After stable oscillations of the
external clock within the specified frequency range the PLL locks to the external clock.
This means the PLL will be synchronous with this clock at a frequency of F × fOSC.
The PLL circuit constantly synchronizes the master clock to the input clock. This
synchronization is done smoothly, i.e. the master clock frequency does not change
abruptly. Due to the fact that the external frequency is 1/Fth of the PLL output frequency
the output frequency may be slightly higher or lower than the desired frequency. The
slight variation causes a jitter of fMC which also affects the duration of individual master
clock periods. This jitter is irrelevant for longer time periods. For short periods (1 … 4
CPU clock cycles) it remains below 9%.
The clock signal passes through several blocks (see Figure 6-7). The total clock
multiplication factor F results from the input divider (P:1), the multiplication factor (1:N),
and the output divider (K:1), so F = PLLMUL+1 / ((PLLIDIV+1) × (PLLODIV+1)).
The input clock divider adjusts the oscillator clock frequency to the input frequency
range for which the PLL is optimized (fIN = fOSC / (PLLIDIV+1) = 4 … 35 MHz).
The PLL core multiplies the adjusted input frequency within the selected VCO band by
a selectable factor (fVCO = fIN × (PLLMUL+1)). The valid VCO band (PLLVB) must be
selected according to the intended VCO frequency.
Note: This PLL core can be bypassed, e.g. while the PLL is locking to a given factor, to
ensure a proper CPU clock signal, or if the PLL is not used for clock generation.
The output clock divider scales the VCO’s output frequency by a selectable factor to
generate the master clock signal (fMC = fVCO / (PLLODIV+1)). Adjusting this factor may
be used to control the operating frequency of the XC164 without having to reprogram the
PLL core itself.
Figure 6-8 summarizes the subsequent steps the master clock generation.
The maximum multiplication factor Fmax is employed when the highest possible master
clock frequency (40 MHz) shall be generated from the lowest possible input clock
frequency (4 MHz). Therefore, the maximum usable factor is Fmax = 10.

Bypass Operation
When bypass operation is configured (PLLCTRL = 0XB) the clock signal does not pass
through the PLL core and the master clock is derived from the internal oscillator (input
clock signal XTAL1) through the input- and output-prescalers:
fMC = fOSC / ((PLLIDIV+1) × (PLLODIV+1)).
If both divider factors are selected as 1 (PLLIDIV = PLLODIV = 0) the frequency of fMC
directly follows the frequency of fOSC so the high and low time of fMC is defined by the duty
cycle of the input clock fOSC.
The lowest master clock frequency is achieved by selecting the maximum values for both
divider factors: fMCmin = fOSC / ((3+1) × (14+1)) = fOSC / 60.
Master Clock Duty Cycle
The master clock signal fMC is formed by the output divider (factor K = PLLODIV+1). The
duty cycle of fMC depends on the selected output divider factor. For all even factors the
duty cycle is 50%, for all odd factors the duty cycle is (K - 1)/(K × 2)%. The worst case
here is K = 3, which leads to a duty cycle of (3 - 1)/(3 × 2)% = 2/6% = 33%.

Oscillator Watchdog
The XC164 provides an Oscillator Watchdog (OWD) which monitors the clock signal fed
to input XTAL1 of the on-chip oscillator (either with a crystal or via external clock drive)
in bypass mode (not if the PLL provides the master clock). For this operation, the PLL
provides a VCO clock signal (base frequency) which is used to supervise transitions on
the oscillator clock. This VCO clock is independent from the XTAL1 clock. When the
expected oscillator clock transitions are missing, the OWD activates the PLL
Unlock/OWD interrupt node and supplies the CPU with an emergency clock instead of
the selected oscillator clock. Under these circumstances the VCO will oscillate with its
base frequency in the selected VCO band. The emergency clock frequency is fVCO/16.
If the oscillator clock fails while the PLL provides the master clock the system will be
supplied with the PLL base frequency anyway.
With this emergency clock signal the CPU can either execute a controlled shutdown
sequence bringing the system into a defined and safe idle state, or it can provide an
emergency operation of the system with reduced performance based on this (normally
slower) emergency clock.
Note: In special cases, when bypass mode is selected with a high prescaler factor, the
emergency clock frequency may be higher than the originally intended frequency.
The oscillator watchdog can be disabled by switching the VCO off (PLLCTRL = 00B).
In this case the VCO remains idle and provides no clock signal, while the master clock
signal is derived directly from the oscillator clock. This reduces power consumption, but
also no interrupt request will be generated in case of a missing oscillator clock.
Note: At the end of a hardware reset triggering a standard external start (EA = 0,
ALE = 1) the VCO (and thus the oscillator watchdog) may also be disabled via
hardware by (externally) pulling the RD line low, similar to the standard reset
configuration via PORT0.

Interrupt Generation
When the PLL leaves its locked state or when the OWD detects an improper clock input
signal, the CGU issues an interrupt request.

Generation of an External Clock Signal
The external circuitry can be provided with a clock signal either to operate external
peripherals or for reference purposes. Two types can be selected:
•
•
CLKOUT directly outputs the master clock signal fMC and is mainly used as a timing
reference
FOUT outputs a clock signal with a programmable frequency and can be used to
drive and control external circuitry
The programmable frequency output signal fOUT can be controlled via software (contrary
to CLKOUT), and so can be adapted to the requirements of the connected external
circuitry. The programmability also extends the power management to a system level, as
also circuitry (peripherals, etc.) outside the XC164 can be influenced, i.e. run at a
scalable frequency or temporarily can be switched off completely.
This clock signal is generated via a reload counter, so the output frequency can be
selected in small steps. An optional toggle latch provides a clock signal with a 50% duty
cycle.

Clock Output Signal Generation
Signal fOUT always provides complete output periods (see Figure 6-10):
•
•
When fOUT is started (FOEN --> 1), FOCNT is loaded from FORV
When fOUT is stopped (FOEN --> 0), FOCNT is stopped when
fOUT has reached (or is) 0.
Register FOCON provides control over the output signal generation (output signal type,
frequency, waveform, activation) as well as all status information (counter value, FOTL).

Note: Bitfield FOCNT and bit FOTL cannot be written. This prevents the generation of
invalid clock cycles when writing to register FOCON, for example to change the
output frequency or to stop the output clock signal.
FOCON is write protected after the execution of EINIT by the register security
mechanism (see Section 6.3.5).
During the generation of CLKOUT and fOUT the shared pin is automatically switched to
output.
While fOUT is disabled, the pin is controlled by the port latch and the direction latch. Pin
FOUT must be switched to output and the port latch must be 0 in order to maintain the
fOUT inactive level at the pin.

Reset Source Indication
Reset indication flags in register SYSSTAT provide information about the source of the
last reset. After the XC164 starts execution, the initialization software may check these
flags to determine if the recent reset event was triggered by an external hardware signal
(via RSTIN), by software, or by an overflow of the watchdog timer. The initialization and
further operation of the microcontroller system can thus be adapted to the respective
circumstances. For instance, a special routine may verify software integrity after a
watchdog timer reset.
The reset indication flags are mutually exclusive; only one flag is set after reset
depending on its source.
Hardware Reset is indicated when the RSTIN input is sampled low (active).
Software Reset is indicated after a reset triggered by the execution of instruction SRST.
Watchdog Timer Reset is indicated after a reset triggered by an overflow of the
watchdog timer.

Register Security Mechanism
There are some dedicated registers which control critical functions and modes. These
registers are protected by a special register security mechanism so these vital system
functions cannot be changed inadvertently.
This security mechanism controls three different security levels:
•
•
•
Write Protected Mode (entered after the execution of EINIT)
Protected registers are locked against any write access (read only).
Secured Mode
Protected registers can be written using a special command sequence.
Unprotected Mode (entered after reset)
No protection is active. Registers can be written at any time.
Note: The selected security level applies to all protected registers throughout the XC164
(see Table 6-15).
Controlling the Security Level
Two registers build the interface for controlling the security level. The security level
command register SCUSLC accepts the commands to control the state machine
modifying the security level (the required command sequence is safeguarded with a
password). The security level status register SCUSLS (read only) shows the actual
password, the actual security level, and the state of the switching state machine.

System Units (Vol. 1 of 2)
General System Control Functions
Two mechanisms can be used to control the actual security level:
•
Changing the security level
can be done by executing the following command sequence:
“command0-command1-command2-command3”.
This sequence establishes a new security level and/or a new password.
Access in secured mode
can be achieved by preceding the intended write access with writing “command4” to
register SCUSLC. This quick access is only possible while secured mode is selected.
•
Read accesses are always possible to all registers of the SCU and will not influence the
command sequences. In register SCUSLS the actual status of the command state
machine can always be read.
Note: After writing command4 in secured mode the lock mechanism remains disabled
until the next write access to an SCU register or a register on the PD bus, i.e.
accesses to registers outside this area do not re-activate the protection.

Power Management
The power consumption of the XC164 can be reduced by several mechanisms. The level
of power reduction depends on the level of system performance that is required under
these circumstances. The architecture of the XC164 provides three major means of
reducing its power consumption under software control:
•
•
•
Power reduction modes (Idle, Sleep, Powerdown) to deactivate CPU, ports and
control logic
Reduction of the CPU frequency and system frequency
Selection of the active peripheral modules (Flexible Peripheral Management)
This enables the application (that is, the programmer) to choose the optimum
constellation for each operating condition, so the power consumption can be adapted to
conditions like maximum performance, partial performance, or standby.
These three means can be applied independent from each other and thus provide a
maximum of flexibility for each application.
6.4.1
Power Reduction Modes
Three different general power reduction modes with different levels of power reduction
have been implemented in the XC164, which are selected by dedicated instructions:
IDLE selects Idle mode or Sleep mode, PWRDN selects Powerdown mode.
Attention: Upon a reset all power reduction modes are terminated.
Idle Mode
In Idle mode all enabled peripherals, including the watchdog timer, continue to operate
normally, only the CPU operation is halted.
Note: Peripherals that have been disabled via software also remain disabled in Idle
mode, of course.
Idle mode is entered after the IDLE instruction has been executed (bitfield SLEEPCON
in register SYSCON1 must be 00B) and the instruction before the IDLE instruction has
been completed. To prevent unintentional entry into Idle mode, the IDLE instruction has
been implemented as a protected 32-bit instruction.
Idle mode is terminated by interrupt requests from any enabled interrupt source whose
individual Interrupt Enable flag was set before the Idle mode was entered, regardless of
bit IEN.

Figure 6-12 Transitions between Idle Mode and Active Mode
For a request selected for CPU interrupt service the associated interrupt service routine
is entered if the priority level of the requesting source is higher than the current CPU
priority and the interrupt system is globally enabled. After the RETI (Return from
Interrupt) instruction of the interrupt service routine is executed the CPU continues
executing the program with the instruction following the IDLE instruction. Otherwise, if
the interrupt request cannot be serviced because of a too low priority or a globally
disabled interrupt system the CPU immediately resumes normal program execution with
the instruction following the IDLE instruction.
For a request which was programmed for PEC service a PEC data transfer is performed
if the priority level of this request is higher than the current CPU priority and the interrupt
system is globally enabled. After the PEC data transfer has been completed the CPU
remains in Idle mode. Otherwise, if the PEC request cannot be serviced because of a
too low priority or a globally disabled interrupt system the CPU does not remain in Idle
mode but continues program execution with the instruction following the IDLE
instruction.
Idle mode can also be terminated by a Non-Maskable Interrupt, i.e. a high-to-low
transition on the NMI pin. After Idle mode has been terminated by an interrupt or NMI
request, the interrupt arbitration block performs a round of prioritization to determine the
highest priority request. In the case of an NMI request, the NMI trap will always be
entered.
Any interrupt request whose individual Interrupt Enable flag was set before Idle mode
was entered will terminate Idle mode regardless of the current CPU priority. The CPU
will not go back into Idle mode when a CPU interrupt request is detected, even when the
interrupt was not serviced because of a higher CPU priority or a globally disabled
interrupt system (IEN = 0). The CPU will only go back into Idle mode when the interrupt
system is globally enabled (IEN = 1) and a PEC service on a priority level higher than
the current CPU level is requested and executed.

General System Control Functions
Note: An interrupt request which is individually enabled and assigned to priority level 0
will terminate Idle mode. The associated interrupt vector will not be accessed,
however.
The watchdog timer may be used to monitor the Idle mode: an internal watchdog timer
reset will be generated if no interrupt or NMI request occurs before the watchdog timer
overflows. To prevent the watchdog timer from overflowing during Idle mode it must be
programmed to a reasonable time interval before Idle mode is entered.
Sleep Mode
In Sleep mode clocking of all internal blocks (including WDT) is stopped. The contents
of the internal RAM, however, are preserved through the voltage supplied via the VDD
pins.
Sleep mode is entered after the IDLE instruction has been executed (bitfield
SLEEPCON in register SYSCON1 must be 01B), the instruction before the IDLE
instruction has been completed, and all individual enabled interrupt request flags are
inactive. To prevent unintentional entry into Sleep mode, the IDLE instruction has been
implemented as a protected 32-bit instruction.
Sleep mode is terminated by an RTC interrupt (if enabled), by a transition on the
external interrupt line or the respective alternate input line, when the respective level
detection is enabled, and by an NMI request. The external interrupt level detection is
controlled by register EXICON. The action, which is taken after the wake-up, depends
on the individual interrupt enable flag’s setting of the fast external interrupt, which has
triggered the wake-up, and on the setting of the global interrupt enable flag PSW.IEN.
The XC164 switches from Sleep mode to Idle mode if the individual interrupt enable flag
was not set by software before the wake-up has been triggered. Otherwise, the XC164
switches to active mode if the enable flag is 1. Whether a branch to the interrupt service
routine or to the instruction following the IDLE is executed, depends on the setting of the
global interrupt enable flag and on the interrupt level. This behavior is identical to the Idle
mode.
Note: The receive lines of serial interfaces may be internally routed to external interrupt
inputs via registers EXISELn. All peripherals are stopped and hence cannot
generate an interrupt request.
The total power consumption in Sleep mode depends mainly on the current that flows
through the port drivers. To minimize the consumed current all pin drivers can be
disabled (pins switched to tristate) via a central control bit in register SYSCON1. If an
application requires one or more port drivers to remain active even in Sleep mode also
individual port drivers can be disabled simply by configuring them for input.

Powerdown Mode
In Powerdown mode both the CPU and all peripherals are stopped. The contents of the
internal RAM, however, are preserved through the voltage supplied via the VDD pins.
Powerdown mode is entered after the PWRDN instruction has been executed, the
instruction before the PWRDN instruction has been completed, and the NMI (Non
Maskable Interrupt) pin is externally pulled low while the PWRDN instruction is executed.
To prevent unintentional entry into Powerdown mode, the PWRDN instruction has been
implemented as a protected 32-bit instruction and is additionally validated by the NMI
signal. If pin NMI is not low at this time, Powerdown mode will not be entered and
program execution continues.
Powerdown mode is terminated only by a hardware reset (an internal reset cannot
occur).
The total power consumption in Powerdown mode depends mainly on the current that
flows through the port drivers. To minimize the consumed current all pin drivers can be
disabled (pins switched to tristate) via a central control bit in register SYSCON1. If an
application requires one or more port drivers to remain active even in Powerdown mode
also individual port drivers can be disabled simply by configuring them for input.
6.4.2
Reduction of Clock Frequencies
The power consumption of the XC164 is linearly dependent on the logic’s switching
frequency. The means to control this are described in Section 6.2, Clock Generation.
6.4.3
Flexible Peripheral Management
The power consumed by the XC164 also depends on the amount of active logic.
Peripheral management deactivates those on-chip peripherals that are not required in a
given system status (e.g. a certain interface mode or standby). This reduces the amount
of clocked circuitry. All modules that remain active, however, will still deliver their usual
performance.
Note: A read access to a register of a disabled peripheral returns the valid register
content, whereas a write access to this register is ignored.
A read access will not trigger any actions within a disabled peripheral.
While a peripheral is disabled, its associated output pins remain in the state they had at
the time of disabling.
Software controls this flexible peripheral management via register SYSCON3 where
each control bit is associated with an on-chip peripheral module.
Writing SYSCON3 requests deactivation/activation of the respective peripheral(s).
When writing to register SYSCON3, make sure that all undefined bits are written with 1s.
Reading SYSCON3 returns the peripherals’ actual status according to the shutdown
handshake mechanism (see Section 6.3.3).

1) When the program flash module is deactivated in active mode (by setting bit PFMDIS), the next access to the
program flash module will be answered with the trap code 1E9BH and produce a “Program Memory Access
Error” trap.
PFMDIS is not valid in ROM derivatives, of course, and is disabled after reset.
With the reset value 9FD0H, the program memory and a basic set of peripherals is
enabled. The other peripherals of the XC164 must be enabled during initialization before
they can be used. In ROM derivatives bit PFMDIS is not valid and, therefore, disabled
after reset, so the reset value for ROM derivatives is 9FF0H.
Note: The allocation of peripheral disable bits within register SYSCON3 is device
specific and may be different in other derivatives than the XC164.
SYSCON3 is write protected after the execution of EINIT by the register security
mechanism (see Section 6.3.5).

Watchdog Timer (WDT)
To allow recovery from software or hardware failure, the XC164 provides a Watchdog
Timer. If the software fails to service this timer before an overflow occurs, an internal
reset sequence will be initiated. This internal reset can also pull the RSTOUT pin low,
which in turn resets the peripheral hardware which might have caused the malfunction.
If the watchdog timer is enabled and the software has been designed to service it
regularly before it overflows, the watchdog timer will supervise the program execution so
it will overflow only if the program does not progress properly. The watchdog timer will
also time out if a software error was caused by hardware related failures. This prevents
the controller from malfunctioning for a time longer than specified by the user.
The watchdog timer provides two registers:
•
•
a read-only timer register containing the current count, and
a control register for initialization and reset source detection.

•
•

by 4 (WDTIN = 10B), or
by 128 (WDTIN = 01B), or

Operation of the Watchdog Timer
The current count value of the Watchdog Timer is contained in the Watchdog Timer
Register WDT which is a non-bitaddressable read-only register. Operation of the
Watchdog Timer is controlled by its bitaddressable Watchdog Timer Control Register
WDTCON. This register specifies the reload value for the high byte of the timer, selects
the input clock prescaling factor, and also provides flags to indicate the source of a reset.
After any reset (except as noted) the watchdog timer is enabled and starts counting up
from 0000H with the default frequency fWDT = fSYS/2. The default input frequency may be
changed to another frequency (fWDT = fSYS/4, 128, 256) by programming the prescaler
(bitfield WDTIN).
The watchdog timer can be disabled by executing the instruction DISWDT (Disable
Watchdog Timer). Instruction DISWDT is a protected 32-bit instruction.
In compatible WDT mode instruction DISWDT will ONLY be executed during the time
between a reset and execution of either the EINIT or the SRVWDT instruction. Either one
of these instructions disables the execution of DISWDT. Once disabled, the WDT can
only be enabled by a reset.
In enhanced WDT mode the watchdog timer can be disabled and enabled at any time
(independent of the EINIT instruction). This is controlled by executing instructions
DISWDT and ENWDT, respectively. Instruction ENWDT is a protected 32-bit instruction.
If the watchdog timer is re-enabled via instruction ENWDT it is implicitly serviced.
The basic control mode (compatible/enhanced) is selected by bit WDTCTL in register
CPUCON1.
Note: After a hardware reset that activates the Bootstrap Loader the watchdog timer will
be disabled. The WDT is enabled, when the loaded software begins executing.
When the watchdog timer is not disabled via instruction DISWDT it will continue counting
up, even in Idle Mode. If it is not serviced by the time the count reaches FFFFH the
watchdog timer will overflow and cause an internal reset. This reset will pull the external
reset indication pin RSTOUT low. The Watchdog Timer Reset Indication Flag (WDTR)
in register SYSSTAT will be set in this case.
Attention: A watchdog timer reset is unconditional. All current data/code
accesses are aborted.
To prevent the watchdog timer from overflowing, it must be serviced periodically by the
user software. The watchdog timer is serviced by three different actions:
•
•
•
by executing instruction SRVWDT which is a protected 32-bit instruction
by writing to register WDTCON
by executing instruction ENWDT (in enhanced WDT mode)
Servicing the watchdog timer clears the low byte and reloads the high byte of the
watchdog timer register WDT with the preset value from bitfield WDTREL which is the

high byte of register WDTCON. After servicing, the watchdog timer resumes counting up
from the value (<WDTREL> × 28).
Instruction SRVWDT has been encoded in such a way that the chance of unintentionally
servicing the watchdog timer is minimized (such as by fetching and executing a bit
pattern from a wrong location). When instruction SRVWDT does not match the format
for protected instructions, the Protection Fault Trap will be entered, rather than executing
the instruction.

Input Threshold Control
The standard inputs of the XC164 determine the status of input signals according to TTL
levels. In order to accept and recognize noisy signals, CMOS-like input thresholds can
be selected instead of the standard TTL thresholds for all pins of specific ports. These
special thresholds are defined above the TTL thresholds and feature a defined
hysteresis to prevent the inputs from toggling while the respective input signal level is
near the thresholds.
The Port Input Control register PICON allows to select these thresholds for each byte of
the indicated ports, i.e. 8-bit ports are controlled by one bit each while 16-bit ports are
controlled by two bits each.

Output Driver Control
The output driver of a port pin is activated by switching the respective pin to output, i.e.
DPx.y = ‘1’. The value that is driven to the pin is determined by the port output latch or
by the associated alternate function (e.g. address, peripheral IO, etc.). The user software
can control the characteristics of the output driver via the following mechanisms:
•
•
•
Open Drain Mode: The upper (push) transistor is always disabled. Only ‘0’ is driven
actively, an external pull-up is required.
Driver Characteristic: The driver strength can be selected.
Edge Characteristic: The rise/fall time of an output signal can be selected.
Open Drain Mode
In the XC164 certain ports provide Open Drain Control, which allows to switch the output
driver of a port pin from a push/pull configuration to an open drain configuration. In
push/pull mode a port output driver has an upper and a lower transistor, thus it can
actively drive the line either to a high or a low level. In open drain mode the upper
transistor is always switched off, and the output driver can only actively drive the line to
a low level. When writing a ‘1’ to the port latch, the lower transistor is switched off and
the output enters a high-impedance state. The high level must then be provided by an
external pull-up device. With this feature, it is possible to connect several port pins
together to a Wired-AND configuration, saving external glue logic and/or additional
software overhead for enabling/disabling output signals.
This feature is controlled through the respective Open Drain Control Registers ODPx
which are provided for each port that has this feature implemented. These registers allow
the individual bit-wise selection of the open drain mode for each port line.
If the respective control bit ODPx.y is ‘0’ (default after reset), the output driver is in the
push/pull mode. If ODPx.y is ‘1’, the open drain configuration is selected. Note that all
ODPx registers are located in the ESFR space.

Output Drivers in Push/Pull Mode and in Open Drain Mode
Driver Characteristic
This defines either the general driving capability of the respective driver, or if the driver
strength is reduced after the target output level has been reached or not. Reducing the
driver strength increases the output’s internal resistance which attenuates noise that is
imported/exported via the output line. For driving LEDs or power transistors, however, a
stable high output current may still be required.
The controllable output drivers of the XC164 pins feature three differently sized
transistors (strong, medium and weak) for each direction (push and pull). The time of
activating/deactivating these transistors determines the output characteristics of the
respective port driver.
The strength of the driver can be selected to adapt the driver characteristics to the
application’s requirements:
In Strong Driver Mode, the medium and strong transistors are activated. In this mode the
driver provides maximum output current even after the target signal level is reached.
In Medium Driver Mode, only the medium transistors are activated while the other
transistors remain off.
In Weak Driver Mode, only the weak transistor is activated while the other transistors
remain off. This results in smooth transitions with low current peaks (and reduced
susceptibility for noise) on the cost of increased transition times, i.e. slower edges,
depending on the capacitive load.

This defines the rise/fall time for the respective output, i.e. the output transition time. Soft

Alternate Port Functions
In order to provide maximum flexibility for different applications and their specific IO
requirements, port lines have programmable alternate input or output functions
associated with them.
If an alternate output function of a pin is to be used, the direction of this pin must be
programmed for output (DPx.y = ‘1’), except for some signals that are used directly after
reset and are configured automatically. Otherwise the pin remains in the high-impedance
state and is not effected by the alternate output function. There are port lines, however,
whose direction is switched automatically. For instance, in the multiplexed external bus
modes of PORT0, the direction must be switched several times for an instruction fetch
in order to output the addresses and to input the data. Obviously, this cannot be done
through instructions. In these cases, the direction of the port line is switched
automatically by hardware if the alternate function of such a pin is enabled. However, the
software controlled output functions of a port are selected with one or two specific
ALTSELnPx registers (n = 0 or 1).
If an alternate input function is used, the direction of the pin must be programmed for
input (DPx.y = ‘0’) if an external device is driving the pin. The input direction is the default
after reset. Alternate inputs are supported for some peripherals and for the external
interrupt inputs. Alternate inputs for a peripheral are selected with the peripheral’s PISEL
register, for example the CAN_PISEL register. Alternate external interrupt inputs are
selected with the registers EXISEL0 and EXISEL1 in the SCU.
All port lines that are not used for these alternate functions may be used as general
purpose IO lines. When using port pins for general purpose output, the initial output
value should be written to the port latch prior to enabling the output drivers, in order to
avoid undesired transitions on the output pins. This applies to single pins as well as to
pin groups. In this case, the input operation reads the value stored in the port output
latch. This can be used for testing purposes to allow a software trigger of an input
function by writing to the port output latch.

Alternate Functions of PORT0
In addition to GPIO functions, PORT0 is used as the address/data bus when an external
bus is enabled. Figure 7-5 shows PORT0 and its alternate functions.
In XC164, PORT0 pins are used as configuration pins for an external system startup
(see Section 6.1.5). In this case, pull-downs and/or pull-ups may be required for the pins
of PORT0.
Note: To support hardware configuration with minimum external circuitry, the PORT0
pins have internal pull-up devices activated upon each reset.

Alternate Functions of Port 4
Port 4 pins are utilized as segment address lines during external bus cycles that use
segmentation (i.e. an address space above 64 Kbytes). The number of pins that is used
for segment address output determines the external address space which is directly
accessible. The required pins for segment address lines is configured at system start-up.
Port 4 pins (if any) may also be used for general purpose IO or for the CAN interface.
Additionally, the lower 4 bits of Port 4 are used as the chip select signals. These chip
select lines CS3 - CS0 have an internal weak pull-up device which is switched on during
reset. This ensures that all the chip select lines are driven high during reset and thus
avoids multiple chip selection until the controller begins operation.
If segment address lines are selected, the alternate function of Port 4 may be necessary
to access e.g. external memory directly after reset. For this reason Port 4 will be
switched to this alternate function automatically.
Table 7-13 summarizes the possible alternate functions of Port 4 depending on the
number of selected segment address lines (coded via bitfield SALSEL and defined via
SAPEN in EBCMOD0).

Note: Port 4 pins that are neither used for segment address output nor for chip select
output nor for the TwinCAN interface may be used for general purpose IO. The
pins which are used for chip select output are defined via bitfield CSPEN (see
register EBCMOD0).
If more than one function is selected for a Port 4 pin, the segment address takes
priority over the chip select lines, and the TwinCAN interface takes priority over
the segment address lines.
An overview of the Port 4 IO and alternate function assignment is shown in Figure 7-17.

Port 5 Digital Input Control
Port 5 pins may be used for both digital and analog input. To use a Port 5 pin as an
analog input, the Schmitt-trigger in its input stage must be disabled. This is achieved by
setting the corresponding bit in the register P5DIDIS.
After reset, Port 5 pins are enabled for digital inputs.

During normal operation, Port 20 pins (P20.0, P20.1, P20.4) which are not used for
external bus function can be released for general purpose IO. Separate control bits (in
the EBC) are available for each pin, thus partial release for general purpose IO function
is possible even if an external bus is used.
P20.5 is always available for general purpose IO during normal mode, its alternate
function (EA) is only required during startup configuration. P20.12 is available if a singlechip reset without external bus system is selected at startup.
For details concerning the control of Port 20 pins, please refer to the System Units
manual.
The functions of Port 20 pins are listed in Table 7-22.

Most of the input/output or control signals of the functional the XC164 are realized as
alternate functions of pins of the parallel ports. There is, however, a number of signals

The Non-Maskable Interrupt Input NMI allows to trigger a high priority trap via an
external signal (e.g. a power-fail signal). It also serves to validate the PWRDN instruction
that switches the XC164 into Power-Down mode. The NMI pin is sampled with every
system clock cycle to detect transitions.
The Oscillator Input XTAL1 and Output XTAL2 connect the internal Main Oscillator
to the external crystal. The oscillator provides an inverter and a feedback element. The
standard external oscillator circuitry (see Section 6.2.1) comprises the crystal, two low
end capacitors and series resistor to limit the current through the crystal. The main
oscillator is intended for the generation of the basic operating clock signal of the XC164.
An external clock signal may be fed to the input XTAL1, leaving XTAL2 open.
The Reset Input RSTIN allows to put the XC164 into the well defined reset condition
either at power-up or external events like a hardware failure or manual reset.
The Test Reset Input TRST puts the XC164’s debug system into reset state. During
normal operation this input should be held active. For debugging purposes the on-chip
debugging system can be enabled by releasing pin TRST.

Dedicated Pins
The Power Supply pins for the Analog/Digital Converter VAREF and VAGND provide a
separate power supply (reference voltage) for the on-chip ADC. This reduces the noise
that is coupled to the analog input signals from the digital logic sections and so improves
the stability of the conversion results, when VAREF and VAGND are properly discoupled
from VDD and VSS.
The Power Supply pins VDDI/VDDP and VSS provide the power supply for the digital logic
of the XC164. The respective VDD/VSS pairs should be decoupled as close to the pins as
possible. The VDDI pins (2.5 V) supply the internal logic blocks of the XC164, while the
VDDP pins (5.0 V) supply the output port drivers.
Note: All VDD pins and all VSS pins must be connected to the power supplies and ground,
respectively.

The Address Latch Enable signal ALE controls external address latches that provide
a stable address in multiplexed bus modes.
ALE is activated for every external bus cycle independent of the selected bus mode,
i.e. it is also activated for bus cycles with a demultiplexed address bus.
ALE is not activated for internal accesses, i.e. accesses to ROM/OTP/Flash (if
provided), the internal RAMs and the special function registers.
During reset an internal pull-down ensures an inactive (low) level on the ALE output.
At the end of a true single-chip mode reset (EA = 1) the current level on pin ALE is
latched and is used for configuration. Pin ALE selects standard start/boot, when driven
low (default) or alternate start/boot when driven high.
For standard configuration pin ALE should be low or not connected.
The External Read Strobe RD controls the output drivers of external memory or
peripherals when the XC164 reads data from these external devices. During accesses
to on-chip LXBus-Peripherals RD remains inactive (high).
During reset an internal pull-up ensures an inactive (high) level on the RD output.
At the end of reset the current level on pin RD is latched and is used for configuration.

For a reset with external access (EA = 0) pin RD controls the oscillator watchdog. The
default high level on pin RD leaves the oscillator watchdog active, while a low level
disables the watchdog e.g. for testing purposes.
For a true single-chip mode reset (EA = 1) pin RD enables the bootstrap loader, when
driven low (pin ALE is evaluated together with pin RD).
For standard configuration pin RD should be high or not connected.
The External Write Strobe WR/WRL controls the data transfer from the XC164 to an
external memory or peripheral device. This pin may either provide an general WR signal
activated for both byte and word write accesses, or specifically control the low byte of an
external 16-bit device (WRL) together with the signal WRH (alternate function of BHE).
During accesses to on-chip LXBus-Peripherals WR/WRL remains inactive (high).
During reset an internal pull-up ensures an inactive (high) level on the WR/WRL output.
At the end of reset the current level on pin WR is latched and is used for configuration.
For a true single-chip mode reset (EA = 1) pin WR enables the Port 20 IO mode, when
driven low.
The External Access Enable Pin EA determines if the XC164 after reset starts fetching
code from the on-chip program memory (EA = 1) or via the external bus interface
(EA = 0). Be sure to hold this input low for ROMless devices.
At the end of the internal reset sequence the EA signal is latched together with the
configuration (PORT0, RD, WR, ALE).
Note: The reset configuration is described in Section 6.1.4.
The Reset Output RSTOUT provides a special reset signal for external circuitry.
RSTOUT is activated at the beginning of the reset sequence, triggered via RSTIN, a
watchdog timer overflow or by the SRST instruction. For internal resets the activation of
RSTOUT can be disabled. RSTOUT remains active (low) until the end of the reset
sequence, until disabled by user software, or latest until the EINIT instruction is
executed. This allows to initialize the controller before the external circuitry is activated.
Note: Section 6.1.2 describes the control mechanisms for RSTOUT.

The External Bus Controller EBC
All external memory accesses are performed by a particular on-chip External Bus
Controller (EBC). It can be programmed either to Single Chip Mode when no external
memory is required at all, or dynamically (depending on the selected address range,
belonging to a chip-select signal) to one of four different external memory access modes,
which are as follows:
•
•
•
•
16/17/18/19 … 24-bit Addresses, 16-bit Data, Demultiplexed
16/17/18/19 … 24-bit Addresses, 16-bit Data, Multiplexed
16/17/18/19 … 24-bit Addresses, 8-bit Data, Multiplexed
16/17/18/19 … 24-bit Addresses, 8-bit Data, Demultiplexed
In the demultiplexed bus modes, addresses are output on PORT1 and data is
input/output on PORT0. In the multiplexed bus modes both addresses and data use
PORT0 for input/output. High order address (segment) lines use Port 4. For applications
which do not use all address lines for external devices, the external address space can
be restricted to 8 Mbytes, 4 Mbytes, 2 Mbytes, 1 Mbyte, 512 Kbytes, 256 Kbytes,
128 Kbytes or 64 Kbytes. In this case Port 4 outputs seven, six, five and so on, or no
segment address lines at all. Up to 4 external CS signals can be generated in order to
save external glue logic.
The XC164 External Bus Controller (EBC) allows access to external
peripherals/memories and to internal LXBus modules. The LXBus is an internal
representation of the ExtBus and it controls accesses to integrated peripherals and
modules in the same way as accesses to external components. Because some ExtBus
control signals are generally configurable, related additional control signals are
necessary for the internal LXBus to support its maybe different configuration.
The function of the EBC is controlled via a set of configuration registers. The basic and
general behaviour is programmed via the mode-selection registers EBCMOD0 and
EBCMOD1.
Additionally to the supported external bus chip-select channels, one LXBus chip select
channel is provided (both types together handled as ‘external’ chip select channels).
With one exception, each of these chip-select signals is programmable via a set of
registers. The Function CONtrol register for CSx (FCONCSx) register specifies the
external bus/LXBus cycles in terms of address (multiplexed/demultiplexed), data
(16-bit/8-bit), and chip-select enable. The timing of the bus access is controlled by the
Timing CONfiguration registers for CSx (TCONCSx), which specify the timing of the bus
cycle with the lengths of the different access phases. All these parameters are used for
accesses within a specific address area that is defined via the corresponding ADDRess
SELect register ADDRSELx.
The four register sets (FCONCSx/TCONCSx/ADDRSELx) define four independent and
programmable “address windows”, whereas all external accesses outside these
windows are controlled via registers FCONCS0 and TCONCS0. Chip Select signals CS0

… CS3 belong to accesses on external bus, the additional Chip Select CS7 is used for
access to the internal TwinCAN module on LXBus.
The external bus timing is related to the reference CLocK OUTput (CLKOUT). All bus
signals are generated in relation to the rising edge of this clock. The external bus protocol
is compatible with those of the standard XC166 Family. However, the external bus timing
is improved in terms of wait-state granularity and signal flexibility.
These improvements are configured via an enhanced register set (see above) in
comparison to XC166 Family. The C16x registers SYSCON and BUSCONx are no
longer used. But because the configuration of the external bus controller is done during
the application initialization, only some initialization code has to be adapted for using the
new EBC module instead of the C16x external bus controller.

Timing Principles
9.2.1
Basic Bus Cycle Protocols
The external bus timing is defined by six different timing phases (A-F). These phases
define all control signals needed for any access sequence to external devices. At the
beginning of a phase, the output signals may change within a given output delay time.
After the output delay time, the values of the control output signals are stable within this
phase. The output delay times are specified in the AC characteristics. Each phase can
occupy a programmable number of clock cycles. The number of clock cycles is
programmed in the TCONCSx register selected via the related address range and CSx.

Phases of a Sequence of Several Accesses
Phase A is used for tristating databus drivers from the previous cycle (tristate wait states
after CS switch). Phase A cycles are not inserted at every access cycle but only when
changing the CS. If an access using one CS (CSx) was finished and the next access with
a different CS (CSy) is started then Phase A cycle(s) are performed according to the
control bits as set in the first CS (CSx).
The A Phase cycles are inserted while the addresses and ALE of the next cycle are
already applied.
The following diagrams show the 6 timing phases for read and write accesses on the
demultiplexed bus and the multiplexed bus.

Bus Cycle Phases
9.2.2.1
A Phase - CS Change Phase
The A phase can take 0-3 clocks. It is used for tristating databus drivers from the
previous cycle (tristate wait states after chip select switch).
A phase cycles are not inserted at every access cycle, but only when changing the CS.
If an access using one CS (CSx) ends and the next access with a different CS (CSy) is
started, then A phase cycles are performed according to the bits set in the first CS
(CSx). This feature is used to optimize wait states with devices having a long turn-off
delay at their databus drivers, such as EPROMs and flash memories.
The A phase cycles are inserted while the addresses and ALE of the next cycle are
already applied.
If there are some idle cycles between two accesses, these clocks are taken into account
and the A phase is shortened accordingly. For example, if there are three tristate cycles
programmed and two idle cycles occur, then the A phase takes only one clock.
9.2.2.2
B Phase - Address Setup/ALE Phase
The B phase can take 1-2 clocks. It is used for addressing devices before giving a
command, and defines the length of time that ALE is active. In multiplexed bus mode,
the address is applied for latching.
9.2.2.3
C Phase - Delay Phase
The C phase is similar to the A an B phases but ALE is already low. It can take 0-3 clocks.
In multiplexed bus mode, the address is held in order to be latched safely. Phase C
cycles can be used to delay the command signals (RW delay).
9.2.2.4
D Phase - Write Data Setup/MUX Tristate Phase
The D phase can take 0-1 clocks. It is used to tristate the address on the multiplexed bus
when a read cycle is performed. For all write cycles, it is used to ensure that the data are
valid on the bus before the command is applied.
9.2.2.5
E Phase - RD/WR Command Phase
The E phase is the command or access phase, and takes 1-32 clocks. Read data are
fetched, write data are put onto the bus, and the command signals are active. Read data
are registered with the terminating clock of this phase.

The F phase is at the end of an access. It can take 0-3 clocks.
Addresses and write data are held while the command is inactive. The number of wait
states inserted during the F phase is independently programmable for read and write
accesses. The F phase is used to program tristate wait states on the bidirectional data
bus in order to avoid bus conflicts.

•
•
•
EBC mode registers have influence on global functions.
Chip-select-related registers control the functionality linked to one CS.
TwinCAN and Startup Memory registers are used to control the access to the internal
LXBus.
CS0 is the default chip-select signal that is active whenever no other chip-select or
internal address space is addressed. Therefore, CS0 has no ADDRSEL register.
Note: All EBC registers are write-protected by the EINIT protection mechanism. Thus,
after execution of the EINIT instruction, these registers are not writable any more.

arbitration (see Chapter 9.3.6.2).
Note: The specific ENCSx bits in the FCONCSx registers enable the related address
windows and bus functions and the corresponding chip select signal CSx. But it
depends on the definition of bitfield CSPEN in register EBCMOD0 how many CSx
pins are available and used for the external system. If an address window is
enabled but no external pin is available for the CSx, the external bus cycle is
executed without chip select signal.
Note: With ENCS7 the chip select CS7 and its related register set is enabled and defined

9.3.6.1
Definition of Address Areas
The enabled register sets FCONCSx/TCONCSx/ADDRSELx (x = 1 … 3, 7) define
separate address areas within the address space of the XC164. Within each of these
address areas the conditions of external accesses and LXBus accesses (x = 7) can be
controlled separately, whereby the different address areas (windows) are defined by the
ADDRSELx registers. Each ADDRSELx register cuts out an address window, where the
corresponding parameters of the registers FCONCSx and TCONCSx are used to control
external accesses. The range start address of such a window defines the most
significant address bits of the selected window which are consequently not needed to
address the memory/module in this window (Table 9-4). The size of the window chosen
by ADDRSELx.RGSZ defines the relevant bits of ADDRSELx.RGSAD (marked with ‘R’)
which are used to select with the most significant bits of the request address the
corresponding window. The other bits of the request address are used to address the
memory locations inside this window. The lower bits of ADDRSELx.RGSAD (marked ‘x’)
are disregarded.
The address area from 00’8000H to 00’FFFFH (32 Kbytes) is reserved for CPU internal
registers and data RAM, the area from BF’0000H to BF’7FFFH (32 Kbytes) for internal
startup memory and the area from C0’0000H to FF’FFFFH (4 Mbytes) is used by the
internal program memory. Therefore, these address areas cannot be used by external
resources connected to the external bus.

Address Window Arbitration
For each external access the EBC compares the current address with all address select
registers (programmable ADDRSELx and hardwired address select registers for startup
memory) of enabled windows. This comparison is done in four levels:
Priority 1:
Registers ADDRSELx [x = 2, 4] are evaluated first. A window match with one of these
registers directs the access to the respective external area using the corresponding set
of control registers FCONCSx/TCONCSx and ignoring registers ADDRSELy. An
overlapping of windows of this group will lead to an undefined behaviour.
Priority 2:
A match with registers ADDRSELy [y = 1, 3, 7] directs the access to the respective
external area using the corresponding set of control registers FCONCSy/TCONCSy. An
overlapping of windows of this group will lead to an undefined behaviour. Overlaps with
priority 2 ADDRSELx are only allowed for the (x, y) pairs (2, 1) and (4, 3).
Priority 3:
If there is no match with any address select register (neither the hardwired ones nor the
programmable ADDRSEL) the access to the external bus uses the general set of control
registers FCONCS0/TCONCS0 if enabled.

9.3.7
Access Control to TwinCAN
Access control to LXBus is required for accesses to the TwinCAN module. In general,
accesses to LXBus are not visible on external bus. During LXBus cycles, the external
bus is still enabled, but driven to inactive states (control signals) or switched into the read
mode (buses).
For accesses to the TwinCAN, CS7 and its control registers, the ADDRSEL7, TCONCS7
and the FCONCS7 are used. The selection of LXBus is controlled with CS7. The address
range, defined in ADDRSEL7, is recommended to be located in the ‘External IO Range’
(range from 20’0000H to 3F’0000H). Only for the External IO Range of the total external
address range it is guaranteed that a read access is executed after a preceeding write
access.
After reset (controlled by the startup program sequence), the TwinCAN address range is
adjusted per default to the area from address 20’0000H to 20’0FFFH (4 KB), resulting in
the ADDRSEL7 default-code of 2000H. This initial value of ADDRSEL7 may be changed
afterwards by the user.
The initial default value of the bus function control register FCONCS7 is selected
according to the requirements of the TwinCAN: 16-bit demultiplexed bus, access time
controlled with synchronous READY. This function control is represented by the default
value for FCONCS7 of 0027H.
The initial LXBus cycle timing as controlled with register TCONCS7 after reset is the
shortest possible timing using two clock cycles for one bus cycle. But this minimum
timing will be lengthened with waitstate(s) controlled by the TwinCAN itself with the
READY function. This timing control is controlled by the reset value of TCONCS7
(0000H).

Shutdown Control
In case of a shutdown request from the SCU it must be insured by the EBC that all the
different functions of the EBC are in a non-active state before the whole chip is switched
in a Idle, Powerdown, Sleep or Software Reset mode. A running bus cycle is finished,
still requested bus cycles are executed. Depending on the master/slave configuration of
EBC, the external bus arbiter is controlled for regaining the bus (master) before
performing the requested cycles, or the external bus must be released after complete
execution of still requested bus cycles (see Table 9-5). Only when this shutdown
sequence is terminated, the shutdown acknowledge is generated from EBC (and from
other modules, as described for SCU) and the chip can enter the requested mode.
Table 9-5 gives an overview of the shutdown control in EBC depending on the EBC
configuration.

LXBus Access Control and Signal Generation
To connect on-chip peripherals via the EBC, the local system bus LXBus is provided.
The LXBus is an internal (local) extension of the external bus. It is controlled by the
External Bus Controller EBC identically to the external bus, using the select and cycle
control functions as described for the external bus. The address range and chip select
control with ADDRSELn registers, the function control with FCONCSn registers and the
timing control with TCONCSn registers is identical to the external bus. Chip selects
CS4 … CS7 are reserved for LXBus peripherals. In XC164, only one standard CSx, the
CS7 is used for the LXBus, necessary for the TwinCAN module (see Chapter 9.3.7). Per
default, the address range of this peripheral is located within the so-called ‘External IO
Range’ (from 20’0000H to 3F’0000H). Accesses to the IO range are not buffered and not
cached, and a read access is delayed until all IO writes pending in the pipeline are
executed.
Only internal accesses to LXBus peripherals are supported by the EBC. External
accesses are not supported in this C166SV2 derivative. Accesses to LXBus peripherals
and memories are not visible on external bus pads.

The Bootstrap Loader
The built-in bootstrap loader of the XC164 provides a mechanism to load the startup
program, which is executed after reset, via the serial interface. In this case no external
memory or an internal ROM/OTP/Flash is required for the initialization code.
The bootstrap loader moves code/data into the internal RAM, but it is also possible to
transfer data via the serial interface into an external RAM using a second level loader
routine. ROM memory (internal or external) is not necessary. However, it may be used
to provide lookup tables or may provide “core-code”, i.e. a set of general purpose
subroutines, e.g. for IO operations, number crunching, system initialization, etc.

The BSL mechanism may be used for standard system startup as well as only for special
occasions like system maintenance (firmware update) or end-of-line programming or

The Bootstrap Loader
10.1
Entering the Bootstrap Loader
The XC164 enters BSL mode triggered by external configuration during a hardware
reset:
•
•
when selected via bitfield SMOD at the end of an external reset (EA = 0)
when pin RD is sampled low at the end of an internal reset (EA = 1).
In this case the built-in bootstrap loader is activated independent of the selected bus
mode. The bootstrap loader code is stored in a special Boot-ROM, no part of the
standard mask ROM, OTP, or Flash memory area is required for this.
The hardware that activates the BSL during reset may be a simple pull-down resistor for
systems that use this feature upon every hardware reset. You may want to use a
switchable solution (via jumper or an external signal) for systems that only temporarily
use the bootstrap loader.
The ASC0 receiver is only enabled after the identification byte has been transmitted. A
half duplex connection to the host is therefore sufficient to feed the BSL.
Note: The proper reset configuration for BSL mode requires a set of pins to be driven to
defined logic levels (see Section 6.1.4).

The Bootstrap Loader
Initial State in BSL Mode
After entering BSL mode and the respective initialization the XC164 scans the RxD0 line
to receive a zero byte, i.e. one start bit, eight 0 data bits and one stop bit. From the
duration of this zero byte it calculates the corresponding baudrate factor with respect to
the current CPU clock, initializes the serial interface ASC0 accordingly and switches pin
TxD0 to output. Using this baudrate, an identification byte is returned to the host that
provides the loaded data.
This identification byte identifies the device to be booted. The following codes are
defined:
55H: 8xC166.
A5H: Previous versions of the C167 (obsolete).
B5H: Previous versions of the C165.
C5H: C167 derivatives.
D5H: All devices equipped with identification registers.
Note: The identification byte D5H does not directly identify a specific derivative. This
information can in this case be obtained from the identification registers.
When the XC164 has entered BSL mode, the following configuration is automatically set
(values that deviate from the normal reset values, are marked):
Watchdog Timer:
Disabled
ASC0_BG:
XXXXH
P3.10/TxD0:
‘1’
ASC0_CON:

DP3.10:
‘1’
GPT12E_T6CON:
0880H
ALTSEL0P3.10:
‘1’
GPT12E_T6:
XXXXH
Other than after a normal reset the watchdog timer is disabled, so the bootstrap loading
sequence is not time limited. Pin TxD0 is configured as output, so the XC164 can return
the identification byte.

10.2
Loading the Startup Code
After sending the identification byte the BSL enters a loop to receive 32 Bytes via ASC0.
These bytes are stored sequentially into locations E0’0004H through E0’0023H of the
internal PSRAM. So up to 16 instructions may be placed into the PSRAM area. The first
two words of the PSRAM are loaded with the DISWDT instruction. To execute the loaded
code the BSL then points register VECSEG to location E0’0000H, i.e. the first loaded
instruction1). The bootstrap loading sequence terminates by executing a software reset.
Most probably the initially loaded routine will load additional code or data, as an average
application is likely to require substantially more than 16 instructions. This second
receive loop may directly use the pre-initialized interface ASC0 to receive data and store
it to arbitrary user-defined locations.
This second level of loaded code may be the final application code. It may also be
another, more sophisticated, loader routine that adds a transmission protocol to enhance
the integrity of the loaded code or data. It may also contain a code sequence to change
the system configuration and enable the bus interface to store the received data into
external memory.
This process may go through several iterations or may directly execute the final
application.
Note: Data fetches from a protected ROM will not be executed.
10.3
Exiting Bootstrap Loader Mode
After the bootstrap loader has been activated, the watchdog timer and the debug system
are disabled. The debug system is released automatically when the BSL terminates after
having received the 32nd byte from the host. In order to activate the watchdog timer, if
required, it must be enabled via instruction ENWDT (before executing the EINIT
instruction). Also a reset will re-enable the WDT:
•
•
a software reset (ignoring the external configuration)
a hardware reset, not configuring BSL mode.
After the (non-BSL) reset the XC164 will start executing out of user memory as externally
configured via PORT0 or RD/ALE (depending on EA).
1) This includes the execution of the initial DISWDT instruction, ensuring that the 2nd level loader is not aborted
by the watchdog timer.

10.4
Choosing the Baudrate for the BSL
The calculation of the serial baudrate for ASC0 from the length of the first zero byte that
is received, allows the operation of the bootstrap loader of the XC164 with a wide range
of baudrates. However, the upper and lower limits have to be kept, in order to ensure
proper data transfer.
f
SYS
B MC = ----------------------------------------------------32 × ( ASC0BG + 1 )
(10.1)
The XC164 uses timer GPT12E_T6 to measure the length of the initial zero byte. The
quantization uncertainty of this measurement implies the first deviation from the real
baudrate, the next deviation is implied by the computation of the ASC0_BG reload value
from the timer contents. Equation (10.2) shows the association:
T6 – 36
ASC0BG = -------------------72
9 f SYS
T6 = --- × -----------4 B Host
(10.2)
For a correct data transfer from the host to the XC164 the maximum deviation between
the internal initialized baudrate for ASC0 and the real baudrate of the host should be
below 2.5%. The deviation (FB, in percent) between host baudrate and XC164 baudrate
can be calculated via Equation (10.3):
B Contr – B Host
F B = ------------------------------------ × 100%
B Contr
F B ≤ 2,5%
(10.3)
Note: Function (FB) does not consider the tolerances of oscillators and other devices
supporting the serial communication.
This baudrate deviation is a nonlinear function depending on the CPU clock and the
baudrate of the host. The maxima of the function (FB) increase with the host baudrate
due to the smaller baudrate prescaler factors and the implied higher quantization error
(see Figure 10-2).

Figure 10-2 Baudrate Deviation between Host and XC164
The minimum baudrate (BLow in Figure 10-2) is determined by the maximum count
capacity of timer GPT12E_T6, when measuring the zero byte, i.e. it depends on the
system clock. The minimum baudrate is obtained by using the maximum GPT12E_T6
count 216 in the baudrate formula. Baudrates below BLow would cause GPT12E_T6 to
overflow. In this case ASC0 cannot be initialized properly and the communication with
the external host is likely to fail.
The maximum baudrate (BHigh in Figure 10-2) is the highest baudrate where the
deviation still does not exceed the limit, i.e. all baudrates between BLow and BHigh are
below the deviation limit. BHigh marks the baudrate up to which communication with the
external host will work properly without additional tests or investigations.
Higher baudrates, however, may be used as long as the actual deviation does not
exceed the indicated limit. A certain baudrate (marked I) in Figure 10-2) may e.g. violate
the deviation limit, while an even higher baudrate (marked II) in Figure 10-2) stays very
well below it. Any baudrate can be used for the bootstrap loader provided that the
following three prerequisites are fulfilled:
•
•
•
the baudrate is within the specified operating range for the ASC0
the external host is able to use this baudrate
the computed deviation error is below the limit.

The Bootstrap Loader
Note: When the bootstrap loader mode is entered via an internal reset (EA = 1), the
default configuration selects bypass mode with factor 2:1 for clock generation. In
this case the bootstrap loader will begin to operate with fSYS = fOSC/2 which will limit
the maximum baudrate for ASC0 at low input frequencies intended for PLL
operation.
Higher levels of the bootstrapping sequence can then switch the clock generation
mode (via register PLLCON) e.g. to PLL in order to achieve higher baudrates for
the download.

Introduction
The XC164 includes an On-Chip Debug Support (OCDS) system, which provides
convenient debugging, controlled directly by an external device via debug interface pins.
On-Chip Debug Support (OCDS)
The OCDS system supports a broad range of debug features including setting up
breakpoints and tracing memory locations. Typical application of OCDS is to debug the
user software running on the XC164 in the customer’s system environment.
The OCDS system is controlled by an external debugging device via the Debug
Interface, including an independent JTAG interface and a break interface (Figure 11-1).
The debugger manages the debugging tasks through a set of OCDS registers accessible
via the JTAG interface, and through a set of special debug IO instructions. Additionally,
the OCDS system can be controlled by the CPU, e.g. by the monitor program. The
OCDS system interacts with the core through an injection interface to allow execution of
Cerberus-generated instructions, and through a break port.

Debug System
JTAG Interface
The JTAG interface is a standardized and dedicated port usually used for boundary scan
and for chip internal tests. Because both of these applications are not enabled during
normal operation of the device in a system, the JTAG port is an ideal interface for
debugging tasks.
This interface holds the JTAG IEEE.1149-standard signals:
•
•
•
•
•
TDI - Serial data input
TDO - Serial data output
TCK - JTAG clock
TMS - State machine control signal
TRST - Reset/Module enable
OCDS Break-Interface
Two additional signals are used to implement a direct asynchronous-break channel
between the Debugger and XC164 OCDS Module:
•
•
BRKIN (BReaK IN request) allows the Debugger asynchronously to interrupt the
CPU and force it to a predefined status/action.
BRKOUT (BReaK OUT signal) can be activated by OCDS to notify the external world
that some predefined debug event has happened, while not interrupting the CPU and
using its pin(s).
11.3
OCDS Module
The application of OCDS Module is to debug the user software running on the CPU in
the customer’s system. This is done with an external debugger, that controls the OCDS
Module via the independent Debug Interface.

11.3.1
Debug Events
The Debug Events can come from a few different sources.
Hardware Breakpoints
The Hardware Breakpoint is a debug-event, raised when a single or a combination of
multiple trigger-signals are matching with the programmed conditions.
The following hardware trigger sources can be used:

16 bits
Instruction Pointer
24 bits
Data address of reads (two busses monitored)
2 × 24 bits
Data address of writes

Data value (reads or writes)
16 bits
SBRK Instruction
This is a mechanism through which the software can explicitly generate a debug event.
It can be used for instance by a debugger to temporarily patch code held in RAM in order
to implement Software Breakpoints.
A special SBRK (Software BReaK) instruction is defined with opcode 0x8C00. When this
instruction has been decoded and it reaches the Execute stage, the whole pipeline is
canceled including the SBRK itself. Hence in fact the SBRK instruction is never
“executed” by itself.
The further behavior is dependent on how OCDS has been programmed:
•
•
if the OCDS is enabled and the software breakpoints are also enabled, then the CPU
goes into Halt Mode
if the OCDS is disabled or the software breakpoints are disabled, then the Software
Break Trap (SBRKTRAP) is executed-Class A Trap, number 08H
Break Pin Input
An external debug break pin (BRKIN) is provided to allow the debugger to
asynchronously interrupt the processor.

11.3.2
Debug Actions
When the OCDS is enabled and a debug event is generated, one of the following actions
is taken:
Trigger Transfer
One of the actions that can be specified to occur on a debug event being raised is to
trigger the Cerberus:
•
•
to execute a Data Transfer - this can be used in critical routines where the system
cannot be interrupted to transfer a memory location
to inject an instruction to the Core - using this mechanism, an arbitrary instruction can
be injected into the XC164 pipeline
Halt Mode
Upon this Action the OCDS Module sends a Break-Request to the Core.
The Core accepts this request, if the OCDS Break Level is higher than current CPU
priority level. In case a Break-Request is accepted, the system suspends execution with
halting the instruction flow.
The Halt Mode can be still interrupted by higher priority user interrupts. It then relies on
the external debugger system to interrogate the target purely through reading and
updating via the debug interface.
Call a Monitor
One of the possible actions to be taken when a debug event is raised is to call a Monitor
Program.
This short entry to a Monitor allows a flexible debug environment to be defined which is
capable of satisfying many of the requirements for efficient debugging of a real time
system. In the common case the Monitor has the highest priority and can not be
interrupted from any other requesting source.
It is also possible to have an Interruptible Monitor Program. In such a case safety
critical code can be still served while the Monitor (Debugger) is active, which gives a
maximum flexibility to the user.
Activate External Pin
This action activates the external pin BRKOUT of the OCDS Break-Interface. It can be
used in critical routines where the system cannot be interrupted to signal to the external
world that a particular event has happened. The feature could also be useful to
synchronize the internal and external debug hardware.

11.4.1
Functional Overview
Cerberus is operated by an external debugger across the JTAG Interface. The
Debugger supplies Cerberus IO Instructions and performs bidirectional data-transfers.
The Cerberus distinguishes between two main modes of operation:
Read/Write Mode of Operation
Read/Write (RW) Mode is the most typical way to operate Cerberus. This mode is used
to read and write memory locations or to inject instructions. The injection interface to the
core is actively used in this mode.
In this mode an external Debugger (host), using JTAG Interface, can:
•
•
read and write memory locations from the target system (data-transfer);
inject arbitrary instructions to be executed by the Core.
All Cerberus IO Instructions can be used in RW mode. The dedicated IO_READ_IP
instruction is provided in RW mode to read the IP of the CPU while in Break.

V1.0, 2004-05
XC164-32 Derivatives
System Units (Vol. 1 of 2)
Debug System
The access to any memory location is performed with injected instructions, as PEC
transfer. The following Cerberus IO Instructions can be used in their generic meaning:
•
•
•
IO_READ_WORD, IO_WRITE_WORD
IO_READ_BLOCK, IO_WRITE_BLOCK
IO_WRITE_BYTE
Within these instructions, the host writes/reads data to/from a dedicated
register/memory, while the Cerberus itself takes care of the rest: to perform a PEC
transfer by injection of the appropriate instructions to the Core.
Communication Mode of Operation
In this mode the external host (debugger) communicates with a program (Monitor)
running on the CPU. The data-transfers are made via a PDBus+ register. The external
host is master of all transactions, requesting the monitor to write or read a value.
The difference to Read/Write Mode of Operation is that the read or write request now
is not actively executed by the Cerberus, but it sets request bits in a CPU accessible
register to signal the Monitor, that the host wants to send (IO_WRITE_WORD) or receive
(IO_READ_WORD) a value. The Monitor has to poll this status register and perform
respectively the proper actions
Communication Mode is the default mode after reset. Only the IO_WRITE_WORD and
IO_READ_WORD Instructions are effectively used in Communication Mode.
The Host and the Monitor exchange data directly with the dedicated data-register. For a
synchronization of Host (Debugger) and Monitor accesses, there are associated control
bits in a Cerberus status register.

Instruction Set Summary
This chapter briefly summarizes the XC164’s instructions ordered by instruction classes.
This provides a basic understanding of the XC164’s instruction set, the power and
versatility of the instructions and their general usage.
A detailed description of each single instruction, including its operand data type,
condition flag settings, addressing modes, length (number of bytes) and object code
format is provided in the “Instruction Set Manual” for the XC166 Family. This manual
also provides tables ordering the instructions according to various criteria, to allow quick
references.
Summary of Instruction Classes
Grouping the various instruction into classes aids in identifying similar instructions (e.g.
SHR, ROR) and variations of certain instructions (e.g. ADD, ADDB). This provides an
easy access to the possibilities and the power of the instructions of the XC164.
Note: The used mnemonics refer to the detailed description.

Protected Instructions
Some instructions of the XC164 which are critical for the functionality of the controller are
implemented as so-called Protected Instructions. These protected instructions use the
maximum instruction format of 32 bits for decoding, while the regular instructions only
use a part of it (e.g. the lower 8 bits) with the other bits providing additional information
like involved registers. Decoding all 32 bits of a protected doubleword instruction
increases the security in cases of data distortion during instruction fetching. Critical
operations like a software reset are therefore only executed if the complete instruction is
decoded without an error. This enhances the safety and reliability of a microcontroller
system.

Device Specification
The device specification describes the electrical parameters of the device. It lists DC
characteristics like input, output or supply voltages or currents, and AC characteristics
like timing characteristics and requirements.
Other than the architecture, the instruction set or the basic functions of the XC164 core
and its peripherals, these DC and AC characteristics are subject to changes due to
device improvements or specific derivatives of the standard device.
Therefore these characteristics are not contained in this manual, but rather provided in
a separate Data Sheet, which can be updated more frequently.
Please refer to the current version of the Data Sheet of the respective device for all
electrical parameters.
Note: In any case the specific characteristics of a device should be verified, before a new
design is started. This ensures that the used information is up to date.
Figure 13-1 shows the pin diagram of the XC164. It shows the location of the different
supply and IO pins. A detailed description of all the pins is also found in the Data Sheet.
Note: Not all alternate functions shown in Figure 13-1 are supported by all derivatives.
Please refer to the corresponding descriptions in the data sheets.
