


With on-chip Power-On Reset, VDD monitor, Voltage Regulator, Watchdog Timer, and clock oscillator,
C8051F388/9/A/B devices are truly stand-alone System-on-a-Chip solutions. The Flash memory can be
reprogrammed in-circuit, providing non-volatile data storage, and also allowing field upgrades of the 8051
firmware. User software has complete control of all peripherals, and may individually shut down any or all
peripherals for power savings.
The on-chip Silicon Labs 2-Wire (C2) Development Interface allows non-intrusive (uses no on-chip
resources), full speed, in-circuit debugging using the production MCU installed in the final application. This
debug logic supports inspection and modification of memory and registers, setting breakpoints, single
stepping, run and halt commands. All analog and digital peripherals are fully functional while debugging
using C2. The two C2 interface pins can be shared with user functions, allowing in-system debugging without occupying package pins.
Each device is specified for 2.7–5.25 V operation over the industrial temperature range (–40 to +85 °C).
For voltages above 3.6 V, the on-chip Voltage Regulator must be used. The Port I/O and RST pins are tolerant of input signals up to 5 V. C8051F388/9/A/B devices are available in 48-pin TQFP, 32-pin LQFP, or
32-pin QFN packages. See Table 1.1, “Product Selection Guide,” on page 16 for feature and package
choices.

2. C8051F34x Compatibility
The C8051F388/9/A/B family is designed to be a pin and code compatible replacement for the C8051F34x
device family. The C8051F388/9/A/B device should function as a drop-in replacement for the C8051F34x
devices in most applications that do not use USB. Table 2.1 lists recommended replacement part numbers
for C8051F34x devices. See “2.1. Hardware Incompatibilities” to determine if any changes are necessary
when upgrading an existing C8051F34x design to the C8051F388/9/A/B.

2.1. Hardware Incompatibilities
While the C8051F388/9/A/B family includes a number of new features not found on the C8051F34x family,
there are some differences that should be considered for any design port.




20
Clock Multiplier: The C8051F388/9/A/B does not include the 4x clock multiplier from the C8051F34x
device families. This change only impacts systems which use the clock multiplier in conjunction with an
external oscillator source.
USB: The C8051F388/9/A/B devices do not include the USB module.
External Oscillator C and RC Modes: The C and RC modes of the oscillator have a divide-by-2 stage
on the C8051F388/9/A/B to aid in noise immunity. This was not present on the C8051F34x device
family, and any clock generated with C or RC mode will change accordingly.
Fab Technology: The C8051F388/9/A/B is manufactured using a different technology process than the
C8051F34x. As a result, many of the electrical performance parameters will have subtle differences.
These differences should not affect most systems but it is nonetheless important to review the electrical
parameters for any blocks that are used in the design, and ensure they are compatible with the existing
hardware.

6. 10-Bit ADC
ADC0 on the C8051F388/9/A/B is a 500 ksps, 10-bit successive-approximation-register (SAR) ADC with
integrated track-and-hold, and a programmable window detector. The ADC is fully configurable under software control via Special Function Registers. The ADC may be configured to measure various different signals using the analog multiplexer described in Section “6.5. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer” on page 55. The
voltage reference for the ADC is selected as described in Section “7. Voltage Reference Options” on
page 58. The ADC0 subsystem is enabled only when the AD0EN bit in the ADC0 Control register
(ADC0CN) is set to logic 1. The ADC0 subsystem is in low power shutdown when this bit is logic 0.

6.1. Output Code Formatting
The conversion code format differs between Single-ended and Differential modes. The registers ADC0H
and ADC0L contain the high and low bytes of the output conversion code from the ADC at the completion
of each conversion. Data can be right-justified or left-justified, depending on the setting of the AD0LJST bit
(ADC0CN.0). When in Single-ended Mode, conversion codes are represented as 10-bit unsigned integers.
Inputs are measured from 0 to VREF x 1023/1024. Example codes are shown below for both right-justified
and left-justified data. Unused bits in the ADC0H and ADC0L registers are set to 0.

6.2.
Temperature Sensor
The typical temperature sensor transfer function is shown in Figure 6.2. The output voltage (VTEMP) is the
positive ADC input when the temperature sensor is selected by bits AMX0P5-0 in register AMX0P.
Figure 6.2. Typical Temperature Sensor Transfer Function
The uncalibrated temperature sensor output is extremely linear and suitable for relative temperature measurements (see Table 5.10, “ADC0 Electrical Characteristics,” on page 39 for linearity specifications). For
absolute temperature measurements, gain and/or offset calibration is recommended. Typically a 1-point
calibration includes the following steps:
Step 1. Control/measure the ambient temperature (this temperature must be known).
Step 2. Power the device, and delay for a few seconds to allow for self-heating.
Step 3. Perform an ADC conversion with the temperature sensor selected as the positive input
and GND selected as the negative input.
Step 4. Calculate the offset and/or gain characteristics, and store these values in non-volatile
memory for use with subsequent temperature sensor measurements.
Figure 6.3 shows the typical temperature sensor error assuming a 1-point calibration at 25 °C. Note that
parameters which affect ADC measurement, in particular the voltage reference value, will also
affect temperature measurement.

6.3. Modes of Operation
ADC0 has a maximum conversion speed of 500 ksps. The ADC0 conversion clock is a divided version of
the system clock, determined by the AD0SC bits in the ADC0CF register.
6.3.1. Starting a Conversion
A conversion can be initiated in one of several ways, depending on the programmed states of the ADC0
Start of Conversion Mode bits (AD0CM2–0) in register ADC0CN. Conversions may be initiated by one of
the following:
1. Writing a 1 to the AD0BUSY bit of register ADC0CN
2. A Timer 0 overflow (i.e., timed continuous conversions)
3. A Timer 2 overflow
4. A Timer 1 overflow
5. A rising edge on the CNVSTR input signal
6. A Timer 3 overflow
7. A Timer 4 overflow
8. A Timer 5 overflow
Writing a 1 to AD0BUSY provides software control of ADC0 whereby conversions are performed "ondemand". During conversion, the AD0BUSY bit is set to logic 1 and reset to logic 0 when the conversion is
complete. The falling edge of AD0BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the ADC0 interrupt
flag (AD0INT). Note: When polling for ADC conversion completions, the ADC0 interrupt flag (AD0INT)
should be used. Converted data is available in the ADC0 data registers, ADC0H:ADC0L, when bit AD0INT
is logic 1. Note that when Timer 2, 3, 4, or 5 overflows are used as the conversion source, Low Byte overflows are used if the timer is in 8-bit mode; High byte overflows are used if the timer is in 16-bit mode. See
Section “25. Timers” on page 224 for timer configuration.
Important Note About Using CNVSTR: The CNVSTR input pin also functions as a Port I/O pin. When the
CNVSTR input is used as the ADC0 conversion source, the associated pin should be skipped by the Digital Crossbar. See Section “20. Port Input/Output” on page 147 for details on Port I/O configuration.

Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
6.3.2. Tracking Modes
The AD0TM bit in register ADC0CN controls the ADC0 track-and-hold mode. In its default state, the ADC0
input is continuously tracked, except when a conversion is in progress. When the AD0TM bit is logic 1,
ADC0 operates in low-power track-and-hold mode. In this mode, each conversion is preceded by a tracking period of 3 SAR clocks (after the start-of-conversion signal). When the CNVSTR signal is used to initiate conversions in low-power tracking mode, ADC0 tracks only when CNVSTR is low; conversion begins
on the rising edge of CNVSTR. See Figure 6.4 for track and convert timing details. Tracking can also be
disabled (shutdown) when the device is in low power standby or sleep modes. Low-power track-and-hold
mode is also useful when AMUX settings are frequently changed, due to the settling time requirements
described in Section “6.3.3. Settling Time Requirements” on page 48.
Figure 6.4. 10-Bit ADC Track and Conversion Example Timing
Rev. 1.1
47
C8051F388/9/A/B
6.3.3. Settling Time Requirements
A minimum tracking time is required before each conversion to ensure that an accurate conversion is performed. This tracking time is determined by the AMUX0 resistance, the ADC0 sampling capacitance, any
external source resistance, and the accuracy required for the conversion. Note that in low-power tracking
mode, three SAR clocks are used for tracking at the start of every conversion. For most applications, these
three SAR clocks will meet the minimum tracking time requirements.
Figure 6.5 shows the equivalent ADC0 input circuit. The required ADC0 settling time for a given settling
accuracy (SA) may be approximated by Equation 6.1. See Table 5.10 for ADC0 minimum settling time
requirements as well as the mux impedance and sampling capacitor values.

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

6.4.1. Window Detector Example
Figure 6.6 shows two example window comparisons for right-justified, single-ended data, with
ADC0LTH:ADC0LTL = 0x0080 (128d) and ADC0GTH:ADC0GTL = 0x0040 (64d). The input voltage can
range from 0 to VREF x (1023/1024) with respect to GND, and is represented by a 10-bit unsigned integer
value. In the left example, an AD0WINT interrupt will be generated if the ADC0 conversion word
(ADC0H:ADC0L) is within the range defined by ADC0GTH:ADC0GTL and ADC0LTH:ADC0LTL
(if 0x0040 < ADC0H:ADC0L < 0x0080). In the right example, and AD0WINT interrupt will be generated if
the ADC0 conversion word is outside of the range defined by the ADC0GT and ADC0LT registers
(if ADC0H:ADC0L < 0x0040 or ADC0H:ADC0L > 0x0080). Figure 6.7 shows an example using left-justified data with the same comparison values.

6.5. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer
AMUX0 selects the positive and negative inputs to the ADC. The positive input (AIN+) can be connected to
individual Port pins, the on-chip temperature sensor, or the positive power supply (VDD). The negative
input (AIN-) can be connected to individual Port pins, VREF, or GND. When GND is selected as the negative input, ADC0 operates in Single-ended Mode; at all other times, ADC0 operates in Differential Mode.
The ADC0 input channels are selected in the AMX0P and AMX0N registers as described in SFR Definition
6.9 and SFR Definition 6.10.
Important Note About ADC0 Input Configuration: Port pins selected as ADC0 inputs should be configured as analog inputs, and should be skipped by the Digital Crossbar. To configure a Port pin for analog
input, set to 0 the corresponding bit in register PnMDIN. To force the Crossbar to skip a Port pin, set to 1
the corresponding bit in register PnSKIP. See Section “20. Port Input/Output” on page 147 for more Port
I/O configuration details.

7. Voltage Reference Options
The Voltage reference multiplexer for the ADC is configurable to use an externally connected voltage reference, the on-chip reference voltage generator routed to the VREF pin, the unregulated power supply voltage (VDD), or the regulated 1.8 V internal supply (see Figure 7.1). The REFSL bit in the Reference Control
register (REF0CN, SFR Definition 7.1) selects the reference source for the ADC. For an external source or
the on-chip reference, REFSL should be set to 0 to select the VREF pin. To use VDD as the reference
source, REFSL should be set to 1. To override this selection and use the internal regulator as the reference
source, the REGOVR bit can be set to 1.
The BIASE bit enables the internal voltage bias generator, which is used by many of the analog peripherals
on the device. This bias is automatically enabled when any peripheral which requires it is enabled, and it
does not need to be enabled manually. The bias generator may be enabled manually by writing a 1 to the
BIASE bit in register REF0CN. The electrical specifications for the voltage reference circuit are given in
Table 5.12.
The C8051F388/9/A/B devices also include an on-chip voltage reference circuit which consists of a 1.2 V,
temperature stable bandgap voltage reference generator and a selectable-gain output buffer amplifier. The
buffer is configured for 1x or 2x gain using the REFBGS bit in register REF0CN. On the 1x gain setting the
output voltage is nominally 1.2 V, and on the 2x gain setting the output voltage is nominally 2.4 V. The onchip voltage reference can be driven on the VREF pin by setting the REFBE bit in register REF0CN to a 1.
The maximum load seen by the VREF pin must be less than 200 μA to GND. Bypass capacitors of 0.1 μF
and 4.7 μF are recommended from the VREF pin to GND, and a minimum of 0.1uF is required. If the onchip reference is not used, the REFBE bit should be cleared to 0. Electrical specifications for the on-chip
voltage reference are given in Table 5.12.
Important Note about the VREF Pin: When using either an external voltage reference or the on-chip reference circuitry, the VREF pin should be configured as an analog pin and skipped by the Digital Crossbar.
Refer to Section “20. Port Input/Output” on page 147 for the location of the VREF pin, as well as details of
how to configure the pin in analog mode and to be skipped by the crossbar.

8. Comparator0 and Comparator1
C8051F388/9/A/B devices include two on-chip programmable voltage comparators: Comparator0 is shown
in Figure 8.1, Comparator1 is shown in Figure 8.2. The two comparators operate identically with the following exceptions: (1) Their input selections differ as described in Section “8.1. Comparator Multiplexers” on
page 67; (2) Comparator0 can be used as a reset source.
The Comparators offer programmable response time and hysteresis, an analog input multiplexer, and two
outputs that are optionally available at the Port pins: a synchronous “latched” output (CP0 or CP1), or an
asynchronous “raw” output (CP0A or CP1A). The asynchronous signals are available even when the system clock is not active. This allows the Comparators to operate and generate an output with the device in
STOP mode. When assigned to a Port pin, the Comparator outputs may be configured as open drain or
push-pull (see Section “20.2. Port I/O Initialization” on page 152). Comparator0 may also be used as a
reset source (see Section “17.5. Comparator0 Reset” on page 126).
The Comparator inputs are selected by the comparator input multiplexers, as detailed in Section
“8.1. Comparator Multiplexers” on page 67.
Figure 8.1. Comparator0 Functional Block Diagram

Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
Figure 8.2. Comparator1 Functional Block Diagram
The Comparator output can be polled in software, used as an interrupt source, and/or routed to a Port pin.
When routed to a Port pin, the Comparator output is available asynchronous or synchronous to the system
clock; the asynchronous output is available even in STOP mode (with no system clock active). When disabled, the Comparator output (if assigned to a Port I/O pin via the Crossbar) defaults to the logic low state,
and the power supply to the comparator is turned off. See Section “20.1. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on
page 148 for details on configuring Comparator outputs via the digital Crossbar. Comparator inputs can be
externally driven from –0.25 V to (VDD) + 0.25 V without damage or upset. The complete Comparator electrical specifications are given in Section “5. Electrical Characteristics” on page 34.
The Comparator response time may be configured in software via the CPTnMD registers (see SFR Definition 8.2 and SFR Definition 8.4). Selecting a longer response time reduces the Comparator supply current.

Figure 8.3. Comparator Hysteresis Plot
The Comparator hysteresis is software-programmable via its Comparator Control register CPTnCN
(for n = 0 or 1). The user can program both the amount of hysteresis voltage (referred to the input voltage)
and the positive and negative-going symmetry of this hysteresis around the threshold voltage.
The Comparator hysteresis is programmed using Bits 3–0 in the Comparator Control Register CPTnCN
(shown in SFR Definition 8.1). The amount of negative hysteresis voltage is determined by the settings of
the CPnHYN bits. Settings of 20, 10 or 5 mV of nominal negative hysteresis can be programmed, or negative hysteresis can be disabled. In a similar way, the amount of positive hysteresis is determined by the
setting the CPnHYP bits.
Comparator interrupts can be generated on both rising-edge and falling-edge output transitions. (For Interrupt enable and priority control, see Section “16.1. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors” on page 113). The
CPnFIF flag is set to logic 1 upon a Comparator falling-edge occurrence, and the CPnRIF flag is set to
logic 1 upon the Comparator rising-edge occurrence. Once set, these bits remain set until cleared by software. The Comparator rising-edge interrupt mask is enabled by setting CPnRIE to a logic 1. The Comparator falling-edge interrupt mask is enabled by setting CPnFIE to a logic 1.
The output state of the Comparator can be obtained at any time by reading the CPnOUT bit. The Comparator is enabled by setting the CPnEN bit to logic 1, and is disabled by clearing this bit to logic 0.
Note that false rising edges and falling edges can be detected when the comparator is first powered on or
if changes are made to the hysteresis or response time control bits. Therefore, it is recommended that the
rising-edge and falling-edge flags be explicitly cleared to logic 0 a short time after the comparator is
enabled or its mode bits have been changed.

8.1. Comparator Multiplexers
C8051F388/9/A/B devices include an analog input multiplexer to connect Port I/O pins to the comparator
inputs. The Comparator inputs are selected in the CPTnMX registers (SFR Definition 8.5 and SFR Definition 8.6). The CMXnP2–CMXnP0 bits select the Comparator positive input; the CMXnN2–CMXnN0 bits
select the Comparator negative input.
Important Note About Comparator Inputs: The Port pins selected as comparator inputs should be configured as analog inputs in their associated Port configuration register, and configured to be skipped by the
Crossbar (for details on Port configuration, see Section “20.3. General Purpose Port I/O” on page 155).

9. Voltage Regulators (REG0 and REG1)
C8051F388/9/A/B devices include two internal voltage regulators: one regulates a voltage source on
REGIN to 3.3 V (REG0), and the other regulates the internal core supply to 1.8 V from a VDD supply of
1.8 to 3.6 V (REG1). When enabled, the REG0 output appears on the VDD pin and can be used to power
external devices. REG0 can be enabled/disabled by software using bit REG0DIS in register REG01CN
(SFR Definition 9.1). REG1 has two power-saving modes built into the regulator to help reduce current
consumption in low-power applications. These modes are accessed through the REG01CN register. Electrical characteristics for the on-chip regulators are specified in Table 5.5 on page 37.
9.1. Voltage Regulator (REG0)
See “4. Typical Connection Diagrams” for typical connection diagrams using the REG0 voltage regulator.
9.1.1. Regulator Mode Selection
REG0 offers a low power mode intended for use when the device is in suspend mode. In this low power
mode, the REG0 output remains as specified; however the REG0 dynamic performance (response time) is
degraded. See Table 5.5 for normal and low power mode supply current specifications. The REG0 mode
selection is controlled via the REG0MD bit in register REG01CN.
9.1.2. External Interrupt 2 (INT2)
On C8051F388/9/A/B devices, the VBSTAT bit (register REG01CN) indicates the current logic level of the
INT2 signal. If enabled, a INT2 interrupt will be generated when the INT2 signal has either a falling or rising
edge. The INT2 interrupt is edge-sensitive, and has no associated interrupt pending flag. See Table 5.3 for
INT2 input parameters.
9.2. Voltage Regulator (REG1)
Under default conditions, the internal REG1 regulator will remain on when the device enters STOP mode.
This allows any enabled reset source to generate a reset for the device and bring the device out of STOP
mode. For additional power savings, the STOPCF bit can be used to shut down the regulator and the internal power network of the device when the part enters STOP mode. When STOPCF is set to 1, the RST pin
and a full power cycle of the device are the only methods of generating a reset.
REG1 offers an additional low power mode intended for use when the device is in suspend mode. This low
power mode should not be used during normal operation or if the REG0 Voltage Regulator is disabled. See
Table 5.5 for normal and low power mode supply current specifications. The REG1 mode selection is controlled via the REG1MD bit in register REG01CN.
Important Note: At least 12 clock instructions must occur after placing REG1 in low power mode before
the Internal High Frequency Oscillator is Suspended (OSCICN.5 = 1b).

10. Power Management Modes
The C8051F388/9/A/B devices have three software programmable power management modes: Idle, Stop,
and Suspend. Idle mode and stop mode are part of the standard 8051 architecture, while suspend mode is
an enhanced power-saving mode implemented by the high-speed oscillator peripheral.
Idle mode halts the CPU while leaving the peripherals and clocks active. In stop mode, the CPU is halted,
all interrupts and timers (except the Missing Clock Detector) are inactive, and the internal oscillator is
stopped (analog peripherals remain in their selected states; the external oscillator is not affected). Suspend mode is similar to stop mode in that the internal oscillator is halted, but the device can wake on a
transition of the INT2 pin. The CPU is not halted in suspend mode, so it can run on another oscillator, if
desired. Since clocks are running in Idle mode, power consumption is dependent upon the system clock
frequency and the number of peripherals left in active mode before entering Idle. Stop mode and suspend
mode consume the least power because the majority of the device is shut down with no clocks active. SFR
Definition 10.1 describes the Power Control Register (PCON) used to control the C8051F388/9/A/B's Stop
and Idle power management modes. Suspend mode is controlled by the SUSPEND bit in the OSCICN register (SFR Definition 19.3).
Although the C8051F388/9/A/B has Idle, Stop, and suspend modes available, more control over the device
power can be achieved by enabling/disabling individual peripherals as needed. Each analog peripheral
can be disabled when not in use and placed in low power mode. Digital peripherals, such as timers or
serial buses, draw little power when they are not in use. Turning off oscillators lowers power consumption
considerably, at the expense of reduced functionality.
10.1. Idle Mode
Setting the Idle Mode Select bit (PCON.0) causes the hardware to halt the CPU and enter Idle mode as
soon as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution. All internal registers and memory maintain
their original data. All analog and digital peripherals can remain active during idle mode.
Idle mode is terminated when an enabled interrupt is asserted or a reset occurs. The assertion of an
enabled interrupt will cause the Idle Mode Selection bit (PCON.0) to be cleared and the CPU to resume
operation. The pending interrupt will be serviced and the next instruction to be executed after the return
from interrupt (RETI) will be the instruction immediately following the one that set the Idle Mode Select bit.
If Idle mode is terminated by an internal or external reset, the CIP-51 performs a normal reset sequence
and begins program execution at address 0x0000.
Note: If the instruction following the write of the IDLE bit is a single-byte instruction and an interrupt occurs
during the execution phase of the instruction that sets the IDLE bit, the CPU may not wake from Idle mode
when a future interrupt occurs. Therefore, instructions that set the IDLE bit should be followed by an
instruction that has two or more opcode bytes, for example:
// in ‘C’:
PCON |= 0x01;
PCON = PCON;
// set IDLE bit
// ... followed by a 3-cycle dummy instruction
; in assembly:
ORL PCON, #01h
MOV PCON, PCON
; set IDLE bit
; ... followed by a 3-cycle dummy instruction
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer (WDT) will eventually cause an internal watchdog reset and thereby terminate the Idle mode. This feature protects the system from an unintended permanent shutdown in the event
of an inadvertent write to the PCON register. If this behavior is not desired, the WDT may be disabled by
software prior to entering the Idle mode if the WDT was initially configured to allow this operation. This provides the opportunity for additional power savings, allowing the system to remain in the Idle mode indefinitely, waiting for an external stimulus to wake up the system. Refer to Section “17.6. PCA Watchdog Timer
72
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
Reset” on page 127 for more information on the use and configuration of the WDT.
10.2. Stop Mode
Setting the stop mode Select bit (PCON.1) causes the controller core to enter stop mode as soon as the
instruction that sets the bit completes execution. In stop mode the internal oscillator, CPU, and all digital
peripherals are stopped; the state of the external oscillator circuit is not affected. Each analog peripheral
(including the external oscillator circuit) may be shut down individually prior to entering stop mode. Stop
mode can only be terminated by an internal or external reset. On reset, the device performs the normal
reset sequence and begins program execution at address 0x0000.
If enabled, the Missing Clock Detector will cause an internal reset and thereby terminate the stop mode.
The Missing Clock Detector should be disabled if the CPU is to be put to in STOP mode for longer than the
MCD timeout.
By default, when in stop mode the internal regulator is still active. However, the regulator can be configured to shut down while in stop mode to save power. To shut down the regulator in stop mode, the
STOPCF bit in register REG01CN should be set to 1 prior to setting the STOP bit (see SFR Definition 9.1).
If the regulator is shut down using the STOPCF bit, only the RST pin or a full power cycle are capable of
resetting the device.
10.3. Suspend Mode
Setting the SUSPEND bit (OSCICN.5) causes the hardware to halt the high-frequency internal oscillator
and go into suspend mode as soon as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution. All internal registers and memory maintain their original data. The CPU is not halted in Suspend, so code can still be executed using an oscillator other than the internal high-frequency oscillator.
Suspend mode can be terminated by a rising or falling edge on the INT2 pin or a device reset event. When
suspend mode is terminated, if the oscillator source is the internal high-frequency oscillator, the device will
continue execution on the instruction following the one that set the SUSPEND bit. If the wake event was
configured to generate an interrupt, the interrupt will be serviced upon waking the device. If suspend mode
is terminated by an internal or external reset, the CIP-51 performs a normal reset sequence and begins
program execution at address 0x0000.

11. CIP-51 Microcontroller
The MCU system controller core is the CIP-51 microcontroller. The CIP-51 is fully compatible with the
MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to develop software. The MCU family has a superset of all the peripherals included with a standard 8051. The CIP-51
also includes on-chip debug hardware (see description in Section 27), and interfaces directly with the analog and digital subsystems providing a complete data acquisition or control-system solution in a single integrated circuit.
The CIP-51 Microcontroller core implements the standard 8051 organization and peripherals as well as
additional custom peripherals and functions to extend its capability (see Figure 11.1 for a block diagram).
The CIP-51 includes the following features:




Fully Compatible with MCS-51 Instruction Set
48 MIPS Peak Throughput with 48 MHz Clock
0 to 48 MHz Clock Frequency
Extended Interrupt Handler

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

Rev. 1.1
75
C8051F388/9/A/B
With the CIP-51's maximum system clock at 48 MHz, it has a peak throughput of 48 MIPS. The CIP-51 has
a total of 109 instructions. The table below shows the total number of instructions that require each execution time.

Programming and Debugging Support
In-system programming of the Flash program memory and communication with on-chip debug support
logic is accomplished via the Silicon Labs 2-Wire Development Interface (C2).
The on-chip debug support logic facilitates full speed in-circuit debugging, allowing the setting of hardware
breakpoints, starting, stopping and single stepping through program execution (including interrupt service
routines), examination of the program's call stack, and reading/writing the contents of registers and memory. This method of on-chip debugging is completely non-intrusive, requiring no RAM, Stack, timers, or
other on-chip resources. C2 details can be found in Section “27. C2 Interface” on page 277.
The CIP-51 is supported by development tools from Silicon Labs and third party vendors. Silicon Labs provides an integrated development environment (IDE) including editor, debugger and programmer. The IDE's
debugger and programmer interface to the CIP-51 via the C2 interface to provide fast and efficient in-system device programming and debugging. Third party macro assemblers and C compilers are also available.
11.1. Instruction Set
The instruction set of the CIP-51 System Controller is fully compatible with the standard MCS-51™ instruction set. Standard 8051 development tools can be used to develop software for the CIP-51. All CIP-51
instructions are the binary and functional equivalent of their MCS-51™ counterparts, including opcodes,
addressing modes and effect on PSW flags. However, instruction timing is different than that of the standard 8051.
11.1.1. Instruction and CPU Timing
In many 8051 implementations, a distinction is made between machine cycles and clock cycles, with
machine cycles varying from 2 to 12 clock cycles in length. However, the CIP-51 implementation is based
solely on clock cycle timing. All instruction timings are specified in terms of clock cycles.
Due to the pipelined architecture of the CIP-51, most instructions execute in the same number of clock
cycles as there are program bytes in the instruction. Conditional branch instructions take one less clock
cycle to complete when the branch is not taken as opposed to when the branch is taken. Table 11.1 is the
CIP-51 Instruction Set Summary, which includes the mnemonic, number of bytes, and number of clock
cycles for each instruction.

12. Prefetch Engine
The C8051F388/9/A/B family of devices incorporate a 2-byte prefetch engine. Because the access time of
the Flash memory is 40 ns, and the minimum instruction time is roughly 20 ns, the prefetch engine is necessary for full-speed code execution. Instructions are read from Flash memory two bytes at a time by the
prefetch engine and given to the CIP-51 processor core to execute. When running linear code (code without any jumps or branches), the prefetch engine allows instructions to be executed at full speed. When a
code branch occurs, the processor may be stalled for up to two clock cycles while the next set of code
bytes is retrieved from Flash memory. It is recommended that the prefetch be used for optimal code execution timing.
Note: The prefetch engine can be disabled when the device is in suspend mode to save power.

13. Memory Organization
The memory organization of the CIP-51 System Controller is similar to that of a standard 8051. There are
two separate memory spaces: program memory and data memory. Program and data memory share the
same address space but are accessed via different instruction types. The CIP-51 memory organization is
shown in Figure 13.1 and Figure 13.2.

C8051F388/9/A/B
Figure 13.2. On-Chip Memory Map for 32 kB Devices (C8051F38A/B)
13.1. Program Memory
The CIP-51 core has a 64k-byte program memory space. The C8051F388/9/A/B implements 64 or 32 kB
of this program memory space as in-system, re-programmable Flash memory. Note that on the
C8051F388/9 (64 kB version), addresses above 0xFBFF are reserved.
Program memory is normally assumed to be read-only. However, the CIP-51 can write to program memory
by setting the Program Store Write Enable bit (PSCTL.0) and using the MOVX instruction. This feature provides a mechanism for the CIP-51 to update program code and use the program memory space for nonvolatile data storage. Refer to Section “18. Flash Memory” on page 129 for further details.
13.2. Data Memory
The CIP-51 includes 256 of internal RAM mapped into the data memory space from 0x00 through 0xFF.
The lower 128 bytes of data memory are used for general purpose registers and scratch pad memory.
Either direct or indirect addressing may be used to access the lower 128 bytes of data memory. Locations
0x00 through 0x1F are addressable as four banks of general purpose registers, each bank consisting of
eight byte-wide registers. The next 16 bytes, locations 0x20 through 0x2F, may either be addressed as
bytes or as 128 bit locations accessible with the direct addressing mode.
86
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
The upper 128 bytes of data memory are accessible only by indirect addressing. This region occupies the
same address space as the Special Function Registers (SFR) but is physically separate from the SFR
space. The addressing mode used by an instruction when accessing locations above 0x7F determines
whether the CPU accesses the upper 128 bytes of data memory space or the SFRs. Instructions that use
direct addressing will access the SFR space. Instructions using indirect addressing above 0x7F access the
upper 128 bytes of data memory. Figure 13.1 illustrates the data memory organization of the CIP-51.
13.3. General Purpose Registers
The lower 32 bytes of data memory, locations 0x00 through 0x1F, may be addressed as four banks of general-purpose registers. Each bank consists of eight byte-wide registers designated R0 through R7. Only
one of these banks may be enabled at a time. Two bits in the program status word, RS0 (PSW.3) and RS1
(PSW.4), select the active register bank (see description of the PSW in SFR Definition 11.6). This allows
fast context switching when entering subroutines and interrupt service routines. Indirect addressing modes
use registers R0 and R1 as index registers.
13.4. Bit Addressable Locations
In addition to direct access to data memory organized as bytes, the sixteen data memory locations at 0x20
through 0x2F are also accessible as 128 individually addressable bits. Each bit has a bit address from
0x00 to 0x7F. Bit 0 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address 0x00 while bit7 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address
0x07. Bit 7 of the byte at 0x2F has bit address 0x7F. A bit access is distinguished from a full byte access by
the type of instruction used (bit source or destination operands as opposed to a byte source or destination).
The MCS-51™ assembly language allows an alternate notation for bit addressing of the form XX.B where
XX is the byte address and B is the bit position within the byte. For example, the instruction:
MOV
C, 22h.3
moves the Boolean value at 0x13 (bit 3 of the byte at location 0x22) into the Carry flag.
13.5. Stack
A programmer's stack can be located anywhere in the 256-byte data memory. The stack area is designated using the Stack Pointer (SP, 0x81) SFR. The SP will point to the last location used. The next value
pushed on the stack is placed at SP+1 and then SP is incremented. A reset initializes the stack pointer to
location 0x07. Therefore, the first value pushed on the stack is placed at location 0x08, which is also the
first register (R0) of register bank 1. Thus, if more than one register bank is to be used, the SP should be
initialized to a location in the data memory not being used for data storage. The stack depth can extend up
to 256 bytes.

14. External Data Memory Interface and On-Chip XRAM
The chip includes 4 kB (C8051F388/9) or 2 kB (C8051F38A/B) of RAM on-chip, and is mapped into the
external data memory space (XRAM). Additionally, an External Memory Interface (EMIF) is available on
the C8051F388/A devices, which can be used to access off-chip data memories and memory-mapped
devices connected to the GPIO ports. The external memory space may be accessed using the external
move instruction (MOVX) and the data pointer (DPTR), or using the MOVX indirect addressing mode using
R0 or R1. If the MOVX instruction is used with an 8-bit address operand (such as @R1), then the high byte
of the 16-bit address is provided by the External Memory Interface Control Register (EMI0CN, shown in
SFR Definition 14.1). Note: the MOVX instruction can also be used for writing to the FLASH memory. See
Section “18. Flash Memory” on page 129 for details. The MOVX instruction accesses XRAM by default.
14.1. Accessing XRAM
The XRAM memory space is accessed using the MOVX instruction. The MOVX instruction has two forms,
both of which use an indirect addressing method. The first method uses the Data Pointer, DPTR, a 16-bit
register which contains the effective address of the XRAM location to be read from or written to. The second method uses R0 or R1 in combination with the EMI0CN register to generate the effective XRAM
address. Examples of both of these methods are given below.
14.1.1. 16-Bit MOVX Example
The 16-bit form of the MOVX instruction accesses the memory location pointed to by the contents of the
DPTR register. The following series of instructions reads the value of the byte at address 0x1234 into the
accumulator A:
MOV
MOVX
DPTR, #1234h
A, @DPTR
; load DPTR with 16-bit address to read (0x1234)
; load contents of 0x1234 into accumulator A
The above example uses the 16-bit immediate MOV instruction to set the contents of DPTR. Alternately,
the DPTR can be accessed through the SFR registers DPH, which contains the upper 8-bits of DPTR, and
DPL, which contains the lower 8-bits of DPTR.
14.1.2. 8-Bit MOVX Example
The 8-bit form of the MOVX instruction uses the contents of the EMI0CN SFR to determine the upper 8-bits
of the effective address to be accessed and the contents of R0 or R1 to determine the lower 8-bits of the
effective address to be accessed. The following series of instructions read the contents of the byte at
address 0x1234 into the accumulator A.
MOV
MOV
MOVX
88
EMI0CN, #12h
R0, #34h
a, @R0
; load high byte of address into EMI0CN
; load low byte of address into R0 (or R1)
; load contents of 0x1234 into accumulator A

14.2. Configuring the External Memory Interface
Configuring the External Memory Interface consists of five steps:
1. Configure the Output Modes of the associated port pins as either push-pull or open-drain (push-pull is
most common), and skip the associated pins in the crossbar.
2. Configure Port latches to “park” the EMIF pins in a dormant state (usually by setting them to logic 1).
3. Select Multiplexed mode or Non-multiplexed mode.
4. Select the memory mode (on-chip only, split mode without bank select, split mode with bank select, or
off-chip only).
5. Set up timing to interface with off-chip memory or peripherals.
Each of these five steps is explained in detail in the following sections. The Port selection, Multiplexed
mode selection, and Mode bits are located in the EMI0CF register shown in SFR Definition 14.4.
14.3. Port Configuration
The External Memory Interface appears on Ports 4, 3, 2, and 1 when it is used for off-chip memory access.
When the EMIF is used, the Crossbar should be configured to skip over the control lines P1.7 (WR), P1.6
(RD), and if multiplexed mode is selected P1.3 (ALE) using the P1SKIP register. For more information
about configuring the Crossbar, see Section “Figure 20.1. Port I/O Functional Block Diagram (Port 0
through Port 3)” on page 147.
The External Memory Interface claims the associated Port pins for memory operations ONLY during the
execution of an off-chip MOVX instruction. Once the MOVX instruction has completed, control of the Port
pins reverts to the Port latches or to the Crossbar settings for those pins. See Section “20. Port Input/Output” on page 147 for more information about the Crossbar and Port operation and configuration. The Port
latches should be explicitly configured to ‘park’ the External Memory Interface pins in a dormant
state, most commonly by setting them to a logic 1.
During the execution of the MOVX instruction, the External Memory Interface will explicitly disable the drivers on all Port pins that are acting as Inputs (Data[7:0] during a READ operation, for example). The Output
mode of the Port pins (whether the pin is configured as Open-Drain or Push-Pull) is unaffected by the
External Memory Interface operation, and remains controlled by the PnMDOUT registers. In most cases,
the output modes of all EMIF pins should be configured for push-pull mode.

14.4. Multiplexed and Non-multiplexed Selection
The External Memory Interface is capable of acting in a Multiplexed mode or a Non-multiplexed mode,
depending on the state of the EMD2 (EMI0CF.4) bit.
14.4.1. Multiplexed Configuration
In Multiplexed mode, the Data Bus and the lower 8-bits of the Address Bus share the same Port pins:
AD[7:0]. In this mode, an external latch (74HC373 or equivalent logic gate) is used to hold the lower 8-bits
of the RAM address. The external latch is controlled by the ALE (Address Latch Enable) signal, which is
driven by the External Memory Interface logic. An example of a Multiplexed Configuration is shown in
Figure 14.1.
In Multiplexed mode, the external MOVX operation can be broken into two phases delineated by the state
of the ALE signal. During the first phase, ALE is high and the lower 8-bits of the Address Bus are presented to AD[7:0]. During this phase, the address latch is configured such that the ‘Q’ outputs reflect the
states of the ‘D’ inputs. When ALE falls, signaling the beginning of the second phase, the address latch
outputs remain fixed and are no longer dependent on the latch inputs. Later in the second phase, the Data
Bus controls the state of the AD[7:0] port at the time RD or WR is asserted.
See Section “14.6.2. Multiplexed Mode” on page 101 for more information.

Non-multiplexed Configuration is shown in Figure 14.2. See Section “14.6.1. Non-multiplexed Mode” on
page 98 for more information about Non-multiplexed operation.

14.5. Memory Mode Selection
The external data memory space can be configured in one of four modes, shown in Figure 14.3, based on
the EMIF Mode bits in the EMI0CF register (SFR Definition 14.4). These modes are summarized below.
More information about the different modes can be found in Section “14.6. Timing” on page 96.
Figure 14.3. EMIF Operating Modes
14.5.1. Internal XRAM Only
When EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to 00, all MOVX instructions will target the internal XRAM space on the device.
Memory accesses to addresses beyond the populated space will wrap on 2k or 4k boundaries (depending
on the RAM available on the device). As an example, the addresses 0x1000 and 0x2000 both evaluate to
address 0x0000 in on-chip XRAM space.

8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine the high-byte of the effective address
and R0 or R1 to determine the low-byte of the effective address.
 16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of the 16-bit DPTR to determine the effective address.
14.5.2. Split Mode without Bank Select
When EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to 01, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and
off-chip space.




94
Effective addresses below the internal XRAM size boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.
Effective addresses above the internal XRAM size boundary will access off-chip space.
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is
on-chip or off-chip. However, in the “No Bank Select” mode, an 8-bit MOVX operation will not drive the
upper 8-bits A[15:8] of the Address Bus during an off-chip access. This allows the user to manipulate
the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly via the port latches. This behavior is in
contrast with “Split Mode with Bank Select” described below. The lower 8-bits of the Address Bus A[7:0]
are driven, determined by R0 or R1.
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip
or off-chip, and unlike 8-bit MOVX operations, the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven
during the off-chip transaction.
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
14.5.3. Split Mode with Bank Select
When EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to 10, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and
off-chip space.

Effective addresses below the internal XRAM size boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.
Effective addresses above the internal XRAM size boundary will access off-chip space.
 8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is
on-chip or off-chip. The upper 8-bits of the Address Bus A[15:8] are determined by EMI0CN, and the
lower 8-bits of the Address Bus A[7:0] are determined by R0 or R1. All 16-bits of the Address Bus
A[15:0] are driven in “Bank Select” mode.
 16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip
or off-chip, and the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.
14.5.4. External Only
When EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 11, all MOVX operations are directed to off-chip space. On-chip XRAM is not
visible to the CPU. This mode is useful for accessing off-chip memory located between 0x0000 and the
internal XRAM size boundary.



8-bit MOVX operations ignore the contents of EMI0CN. The upper Address bits A[15:8] are not driven
(identical behavior to an off-chip access in “Split Mode without Bank Select” described above). This
allows the user to manipulate the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly. The lower
8-bits of the effective address A[7:0] are determined by the contents of R0 or R1.
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine the effective address A[15:0]. The full
16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.

14.6. Timing
The timing parameters of the External Memory Interface can be configured to enable connection to
devices having different setup and hold time requirements. The Address Setup time, Address Hold time,
RD and WR strobe widths, and in multiplexed mode, the width of the ALE pulse are all programmable in
units of SYSCLK periods through EMI0TC, shown in SFR Definition 14.3, and EMI0CF[1:0].
The timing for an off-chip MOVX instruction can be calculated by adding 4 SYSCLK cycles to the timing
parameters defined by the EMI0TC register. Assuming non-multiplexed operation, the minimum execution
time for an off-chip XRAM operation is 5 SYSCLK cycles (1 SYSCLK for RD or WR pulse + 4 SYSCLKs).
For multiplexed operations, the Address Latch Enable signal will require a minimum of 2 additional
SYSCLK cycles. Therefore, the minimum execution time for an off-chip XRAM operation in multiplexed
mode is 7 SYSCLK cycles (2 for ALE + 1 for RD or WR + 4). The programmable setup and hold times
default to the maximum delay settings after a reset. Table 14.1 lists the AC parameters for the External
Memory Interface, and Figure 14.4 through Figure 14.9 show the timing diagrams for the different External
Memory Interface modes and MOVX operations.

15. Special Function Registers
The direct-access data memory locations from 0x80 to 0xFF constitute the special function registers
(SFRs). The SFRs provide control and data exchange with the C8051F388/9/A/B's resources and peripherals. The CIP-51 controller core duplicates the SFRs found in a typical 8051 implementation as well as
implementing additional SFRs used to configure and access the sub-systems unique to the
C8051F388/9/A/B. This allows the addition of new functionality while retaining compatibility with the MCS51™ instruction set. Table 15.1 lists the SFRs implemented in the C8051F388/9/A/B device family.
The SFR registers are accessed anytime the direct addressing mode is used to access memory locations
from 0x80 to 0xFF. SFRs with addresses ending in 0x0 or 0x8 (e.g. P0, TCON, SCON0, IE, etc.) are bitaddressable as well as byte-addressable. All other SFRs are byte-addressable only. Unoccupied
addresses in the SFR space are reserved for future use. Accessing these areas will have an indeterminate
effect and should be avoided. Refer to the corresponding pages of the data sheet, as indicated in
Table 15.2, for a detailed description of each register.
15.1. SFR Paging
The CIP-51 features SFR paging, allowing the device to map many SFRs into the 0x80 to 0xFF memory
address space. The SFR memory space has 256 pages. In this way, each memory location from 0x80 to
0xFF can access up to 256 SFRs. The C8051F388/9/A/B devices utilize two SFR pages: 0x0, and 0xF.
Most SFRs are available on both pages. SFR pages are selected using the Special Function Register
Page Selection register, SFRPAGE. The procedure for reading and writing an SFR is as follows:
1. Select the appropriate SFR page number using the SFRPAGE register.
2. Use direct accessing mode to read or write the special function register (MOV instruction).
Important Note: When reading or writing SFRs that are not available on all pages within an ISR, it is recommended to save the state of the SFRPAGE register on ISR entry, and restore state on exit.

16. Interrupts
The C8051F388/9/A/B include an extended interrupt system supporting multiple interrupt sources with two
priority levels. The allocation of interrupt sources between on-chip peripherals and external inputs pins varies according to the specific version of the device. Each interrupt source has one or more associated interrupt-pending flag(s) located in an SFR. When a peripheral or external source meets a valid interrupt
condition, the associated interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1.
If interrupts are enabled for the source, an interrupt request is generated when the interrupt-pending flag is
set. As soon as execution of the current instruction is complete, the CPU generates an LCALL to a predetermined address to begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). Each ISR must end with an RETI
instruction, which returns program execution to the next instruction that would have been executed if the
interrupt request had not occurred. If interrupts are not enabled, the interrupt-pending flag is ignored by the
hardware and program execution continues as normal. (The interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1 regardless of the interrupt's enable/disable state.)
Each interrupt source can be individually enabled or disabled through the use of an associated interrupt
enable bit in an SFR (IE, EIE1, or EIE2). However, interrupts must first be globally enabled by setting the
EA bit (IE.7) to logic 1 before the individual interrupt enables are recognized. Setting the EA bit to logic 0
disables all interrupt sources regardless of the individual interrupt-enable settings.
Note: Any instruction that clears a bit to disable an interrupt should be immediately followed by an instruction that has two or more opcode bytes. Using EA (global interrupt enable) as an example:
// in 'C':
EA = 0; // clear EA bit.
EA = 0; // this is a dummy instruction with two-byte opcode.
; in assembly:
CLR EA ; clear EA bit.
CLR EA ; this is a dummy instruction with two-byte opcode.
For example, if an interrupt is posted during the execution phase of a "CLR EA" opcode (or any instruction
which clears a bit to disable an interrupt source), and the instruction is followed by a single-cycle instruction, the interrupt may be taken. However, a read of the enable bit will return a 0 inside the interrupt service
routine. When the bit-clearing opcode is followed by a multi-cycle instruction, the interrupt will not be taken.
Some interrupt-pending flags are automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR.
However, most are not cleared by the hardware and must be cleared by software before returning from the
ISR. If an interrupt-pending flag remains set after the CPU completes the return-from-interrupt (RETI)
instruction, a new interrupt request will be generated immediately and the CPU will re-enter the ISR after
the completion of the next instruction.

16.1. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors
The C8051F388/9/A/B MCUs support several interrupt sources. Software can simulate an interrupt by setting any interrupt-pending flag to logic 1. If interrupts are enabled for the flag, an interrupt request will be
generated and the CPU will vector to the ISR address associated with the interrupt-pending flag. MCU
interrupt sources, associated vector addresses, priority order and control bits are summarized in
Table 16.1. Refer to the datasheet section associated with a particular on-chip peripheral for information
regarding valid interrupt conditions for the peripheral and the behavior of its interrupt-pending flag(s).
16.1.1. Interrupt Priorities
Each interrupt source can be individually programmed to one of two priority levels: low or high. A low priority interrupt service routine can be preempted by a high priority interrupt. A high priority interrupt cannot be
preempted. Each interrupt has an associated interrupt priority bit in an SFR (IP, EIP1, or EIP2) used to
configure its priority level. Low priority is the default. If two interrupts are recognized simultaneously, the
interrupt with the higher priority is serviced first. If both interrupts have the same priority level, a fixed priority order is used to arbitrate, given in Table 16.1.
16.1.2. Interrupt Latency
Interrupt response time depends on the state of the CPU when the interrupt occurs. Pending interrupts are
sampled and priority decoded each system clock cycle. Therefore, the fastest possible response time is 6
system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt and 5 clock cycles to complete the LCALL to the
ISR. If an interrupt is pending when a RETI is executed, a single instruction is executed before an LCALL
is made to service the pending interrupt. Therefore, the maximum response time for an interrupt (when no
other interrupt is currently being serviced or the new interrupt is of greater priority) occurs when the CPU is
performing an RETI instruction followed by a DIV as the next instruction. In this case, the response time is
20 system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt, 6 clock cycles to execute the RETI, 8 clock
cycles to complete the DIV instruction and 5 clock cycles to execute the LCALL to the ISR. If the CPU is
executing an ISR for an interrupt with equal or higher priority, the new interrupt will not be serviced until the
current ISR completes, including the RETI and following instruction.
Note that the CPU is stalled during Flash write operations. Interrupt service latency will be increased for
interrupts occurring while the CPU is stalled. The latency for these situations will be determined by the
standard interrupt service procedure (as described above) and the amount of time the CPU is stalled.
16.2. Interrupt Register Descriptions
The SFRs used to enable the interrupt sources and set their priority level are described in this section.
Refer to the data sheet section associated with a particular on-chip peripheral for information regarding
valid interrupt conditions for the peripheral and the behavior of its interrupt-pending flag(s).

16.3. INT0 and INT1 External Interrupt Sources
The INT0 and INT1 external interrupt sources are configurable as active high or low, edge or level sensitive. The IN0PL (INT0 Polarity) and IN1PL (INT1 Polarity) bits in the IT01CF register select active high or
active low; the IT0 and IT1 bits in TCON (Section “25.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 227) select level or
edge sensitive. The table below lists the possible configurations.

INT0 Interrupt
INT1 Interrupt
INT0 and INT1 are assigned to Port pins as defined in the IT01CF register (see SFR Definition 16.7). Note
that INT0 and INT0 Port pin assignments are independent of any Crossbar assignments. INT0 and INT1
will monitor their assigned Port pins without disturbing the peripheral that was assigned the Port pin via the
Crossbar. To assign a Port pin only to INT0 and/or INT1, configure the Crossbar to skip the selected pin(s).
This is accomplished by setting the associated bit in register PnSKIP (see Section “20.1. Priority Crossbar
Decoder” on page 148 for complete details on configuring the Crossbar).
IE0 (TCON.1) and IE1 (TCON.3) serve as the interrupt-pending flags for the INT0 and INT1 external interrupts, respectively. If an INT0 or INT1 external interrupt is configured as edge-sensitive, the corresponding
interrupt-pending flag is automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR. When
configured as level sensitive, the interrupt-pending flag remains logic 1 while the input is active as defined
by the corresponding polarity bit (IN0PL or IN1PL); the flag remains logic 0 while the input is inactive. The
external interrupt source must hold the input active until the interrupt request is recognized. It must then
deactivate the interrupt request before execution of the ISR completes or another interrupt request will be
generated.

17. Reset Sources
Reset circuitry allows the controller to be easily placed in a predefined default condition. On entry to this
reset state, the following occur:




CIP-51 halts program execution
Special Function Registers (SFRs) are initialized to their defined reset values
External Port pins are forced to a known state
Interrupts and timers are disabled.
All SFRs are reset to the predefined values noted in the SFR detailed descriptions. The contents of internal
data memory are unaffected during a reset; any previously stored data is preserved. However, since the
stack pointer SFR is reset, the stack is effectively lost, even though the data on the stack is not altered.
The Port I/O latches are reset to 0xFF (all logic ones) in open-drain mode. Weak pullups are enabled
during and after the reset. For VDD Monitor and power-on resets, the RST pin is driven low until the device
exits the reset state.
On exit from the reset state, the program counter (PC) is reset, and the system clock defaults to the internal oscillator. The Watchdog Timer is enabled with the system clock divided by 12 as its clock source. Program execution begins at location 0x0000.
Figure 17.1. Reset Sources
Rev. 1.1
123
C8051F388/9/A/B
17.1. Power-On Reset
During power-up, the device is held in a reset state and the RST pin is driven low until VDD settles above
VRST. A delay occurs before the device is released from reset; the delay decreases as the VDD ramp time
increases (VDD ramp time is defined as how fast VDD ramps from 0 V to VRST). Figure 17.2. plots the
power-on and VDD monitor event timing. The maximum VDD ramp time is 1 ms; slower ramp times may
cause the device to be released from reset before VDD reaches the VRST level. For ramp times less than
1 ms, the power-on reset delay (TPORDelay) is typically less than 0.3 ms.
On exit from a power-on or VDD monitor reset, the PORSF flag (RSTSRC.1) is set by hardware to logic 1.
When PORSF is set, all of the other reset flags in the RSTSRC Register are indeterminate (PORSF is
cleared by all other resets). Since all resets cause program execution to begin at the same location
(0x0000) software can read the PORSF flag to determine if a power-up was the cause of reset. The content of internal data memory should be assumed to be undefined after a power-on reset. The VDD monitor
is enabled following a power-on reset.
Figure 17.2. Power-On and VDD Monitor Reset Timing
124
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
17.2. Power-Fail Reset / VDD Monitor
When a powerdown transition or power irregularity causes VDD to drop below VRST, the power supply monitor will drive the RST pin low and hold the CIP-51 in a reset state (see Figure 17.2). When VDD returns to
a level above VRST, the CIP-51 will be released from the reset state. Note that even though internal data
memory contents are not altered by the power-fail reset, it is impossible to determine if VDD dropped below
the level required for data retention. If the PORSF flag reads 1, the data may no longer be valid. The VDD
monitor is enabled after power-on resets. Its defined state (enabled/disabled) is not altered by any other
reset source. For example, if the VDD monitor is disabled by code and a software reset is performed, the
VDD monitor will still be disabled after the reset.
Important Note: If the VDD monitor is being turned on from a disabled state, it should be enabled before it
is selected as a reset source. Selecting the VDD monitor as a reset source before it is enabled and stabilized may cause a system reset. In some applications, this reset may be undesirable. If this is not desirable
in the application, a delay should be introduced between enabling the monitor and selecting it as a reset
source. The procedure for enabling the VDD monitor and configuring it as a reset source from a disabled
state is shown below:
1. Enable the VDD monitor (VDMEN bit in VDM0CN = 1).
2. If necessary, wait for the VDD monitor to stabilize (see Table 5.4 for the VDD Monitor turn-on time).
3. Select the VDD monitor as a reset source (PORSF bit in RSTSRC = 1).
See Figure 17.2 for VDD monitor timing; note that the power-on-reset delay is not incurred after a VDD
monitor reset. See Table 5.4 for complete electrical characteristics of the VDD monitor.

VDD Monitor Enable.
This bit turns the VDD monitor circuit on/off. The VDD Monitor cannot generate system resets until it is also selected as a reset source in register RSTSRC (SFR Definition 17.2). Selecting the VDD monitor as a reset source before it has stabilized
may generate a system reset. In systems where this reset would be undesirable, a
delay should be introduced between enabling the VDD Monitor and selecting it as a
reset source. See Table 5.4 for the minimum VDD Monitor turn-on time.

17.3. External Reset
The external RST pin provides a means for external circuitry to force the device into a reset state. Asserting an active-low signal on the RST pin generates a reset; an external pullup and/or decoupling of the RST
pin may be necessary to avoid erroneous noise-induced resets. See Table 5.4 for complete RST pin specifications. The PINRSF flag (RSTSRC.0) is set on exit from an external reset.
17.4. Missing Clock Detector Reset
The Missing Clock Detector (MCD) is a one-shot circuit that is triggered by the system clock. If the system
clock remains high or low for more than the MCD time-out, a reset will be generated. After a MCD reset,
the MCDRSF flag (RSTSRC.2) will read 1, signifying the MCD as the reset source; otherwise, this bit reads
0. Writing a 1 to the MCDRSF bit enables the Missing Clock Detector; writing a 0 disables it. The state of
the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
17.5. Comparator0 Reset
Comparator0 can be configured as a reset source by writing a 1 to the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5). Comparator0 should be enabled and allowed to settle prior to writing to C0RSEF to prevent any turn-on chatter
on the output from generating an unwanted reset. The Comparator0 reset is active-low: if the non-inverting
input voltage (on CP0+) is less than the inverting input voltage (on CP0-), the device is put into the reset
state. After a Comparator0 reset, the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5) will read 1 signifying Comparator0 as the
reset source; otherwise, this bit reads 0. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.

17.6. PCA Watchdog Timer Reset
The programmable Watchdog Timer (WDT) function of the Programmable Counter Array (PCA) can be
used to prevent software from running out of control during a system malfunction. The PCA WDT function
can be enabled or disabled by software as described in Section “26.4. Watchdog Timer Mode” on
page 269; the WDT is enabled and clocked by SYSCLK / 12 following any reset. If a system malfunction
prevents user software from updating the WDT, a reset is generated and the WDTRSF bit (RSTSRC.5) is
set to 1. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
17.7. Flash Error Reset
If a Flash program read, write, or erase operation targets an illegal address, a system reset is generated.
This may occur due to any of the following:





Programming hardware attempts to write or erase a Flash location which is above the user code space
address limit.
A Flash read from firmware is attempted above user code space. This occurs when a MOVC operation
is attempted above the user code space address limit.
A Program read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when user code attempts to branch
to an address above the user code space address limit.
A Flash read, write, or erase attempt is restricted due to a Flash security setting.
A Flash write or erase is attempted when the VDD monitor is not enabled.
The FERROR bit (RSTSRC.6) is set following a Flash error reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by
this reset.
17.8. Software Reset
Software may force a reset by writing a 1 to the SWRSF bit (RSTSRC.4). The SWRSF bit will read 1 following a software forced reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.

18. Flash Memory
On-chip, re-programmable Flash memory is included for program code and non-volatile data storage. The
Flash memory can be programmed in-system through the C2 interface or by software using the MOVX
instruction. Once cleared to logic 0, a Flash bit must be erased to set it back to logic 1. Flash bytes would
typically be erased (set to 0xFF) before being reprogrammed. The write and erase operations are automatically timed by hardware for proper execution; data polling to determine the end of the write/erase operation is not required. Code execution is stalled during a Flash write/erase operation.
18.1. Programming The Flash Memory
The simplest means of programming the Flash memory is through the C2 interface using programming
tools provided by Silicon Labs or a third party vendor. This is the only means for programming a non-initialized device. For details on the C2 commands to program Flash memory, see Section “27. C2 Interface” on
page 277.
To ensure the integrity of Flash contents, it is strongly recommended that the VDD monitor be left enabled
in any system which writes or erases Flash memory from code. It is also crucial to ensure that the FLRT bit
in register FLSCL be set to '1' if a clock speed higher than 25 MHz is being used for the device.
18.1.1. Flash Lock and Key Functions
Flash writes and erases by user software are protected with a lock and key function. The Flash Lock and
Key Register (FLKEY) must be written with the correct key codes, in sequence, before Flash operations
may be performed. The key codes are: 0xA5, 0xF1. The timing does not matter, but the codes must be
written in order. If the key codes are written out of order, or the wrong codes are written, Flash writes and
erases will be disabled until the next system reset. Flash writes and erases will also be disabled if a Flash
write or erase is attempted before the key codes have been written properly. The Flash lock resets after
each write or erase; the key codes must be written again before a following Flash operation can be performed. The FLKEY register is detailed in SFR Definition 18.2.
18.1.2. Flash Erase Procedure
The Flash memory can be programmed by software using the MOVX write instruction with the address and
data byte to be programmed provided as normal operands. Before writing to Flash memory using MOVX,
Flash write operations must be enabled by: (1) Writing the Flash key codes in sequence to the Flash Lock
register (FLKEY); and (2) Setting the PSWE Program Store Write Enable bit (PSCTL.0) to logic 1 (this
directs the MOVX writes to target Flash memory). The PSWE bit remains set until cleared by software.
A write to Flash memory can clear bits to logic 0 but cannot set them; only an erase operation can set bits
to logic 1 in Flash. A byte location to be programmed must be erased before a new value is written.
The Flash memory is organized in 512-byte pages. The erase operation applies to an entire page (setting
all bytes in the page to 0xFF). To erase an entire 512-byte page, perform the following steps:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
Disable interrupts (recommended).
Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
Set the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
Using the MOVX instruction, write a data byte to any location within the 512-byte page to be erased.
Clear the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTI).
Rev. 1.1
129
C8051F388/9/A/B
18.1.3. Flash Write Procedure
Bytes in Flash memory can be written one byte at a time, or in groups of two. The FLBWE bit in register
PFE0CN (SFR Definition ) controls whether a single byte or a block of two bytes is written to Flash during
a write operation. When FLBWE is cleared to 0, the Flash will be written one byte at a time. When FLBWE
is set to 1, the Flash will be written in two-byte blocks. Block writes are performed in the same amount of
time as single-byte writes, which can save time when storing large amounts of data to Flash memory.During a single-byte write to Flash, bytes are written individually, and a Flash write will be performed
after each MOVX write instruction. The recommended procedure for writing Flash in single bytes is:
1. Disable interrupts.
2. Clear the FLBWE bit (register PFE0CN) to select single-byte write mode.
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
4. Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
5. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
6. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
7. Using the MOVX instruction, write a single data byte to the desired location within the 512-byte sector.
8. Clear the PSWE bit.
9. Re-enable interrupts.
Steps 5-7 must be repeated for each byte to be written.
For block Flash writes, the Flash write procedure is only performed after the last byte of each block is written with the MOVX write instruction. A Flash write block is two bytes long, from even addresses to odd
addresses. Writes must be performed sequentially (i.e. addresses ending in 0b and 1b must be written in
order). The Flash write will be performed following the MOVX write that targets the address ending in 1b. If
a byte in the block does not need to be updated in Flash, it should be written to 0xFF. The recommended
procedure for writing Flash in blocks is:
1. Disable interrupts.
2. Set the FLBWE bit (register PFE0CN) to select block write mode.
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
4. Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
5. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
6. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
7. Using the MOVX instruction, write the first data byte to the even block location (ending in 0b).
8. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
9. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
10.Using the MOVX instruction, write the second data byte to the odd block location (ending in 1b).
11. Clear the PSWE bit.
12.Re-enable interrupts.
Steps 5–10 must be repeated for each block to be written.

Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
18.2. Non-Volatile Data Storage
The Flash memory can be used for non-volatile data storage as well as program code. This allows data
such as calibration coefficients to be calculated and stored at run time. Data is written using the MOVX
write instruction and read using the MOVC instruction. Note: MOVX read instructions always target XRAM.
18.3. Security Options
The CIP-51 provides security options to protect the Flash memory from inadvertent modification by software as well as to prevent the viewing of proprietary program code and constants. The Program Store
Write Enable (bit PSWE in register PSCTL) and the Program Store Erase Enable (bit PSEE in register
PSCTL) bits protect the Flash memory from accidental modification by software. PSWE must be explicitly
set to 1 before software can modify the Flash memory; both PSWE and PSEE must be set to 1 before software can erase Flash memory. Additional security features prevent proprietary program code and data
constants from being read or altered across the C2 interface.
A Security Lock Byte located at the last byte of Flash user space offers protection of the Flash program
memory from access (reads, writes, or erases) by unprotected code or the C2 interface. The Flash security
mechanism allows the user to lock n 512-byte Flash pages, starting at page 0 (addresses 0x0000 to
0x01FF), where n is the 1s complement number represented by the Security Lock Byte. Note that the page
containing the Flash Security Lock Byte is also locked when any other Flash pages are locked. See example below.

The level of FLASH security depends on the FLASH access method. The three FLASH access methods
that can be restricted are reads, writes, and erases from the C2 debug interface, user firmware executing
on unlocked pages, and user firmware executing on locked pages.

Write:
This register provides a lock and key function for Flash erasures and writes. Flash
writes and erases are enabled by writing 0xA5 followed by 0xF1 to the FLKEY register. Flash writes and erases are automatically disabled after the next write or erase is
complete. If any writes to FLKEY are performed incorrectly, or if a Flash write or erase
operation is attempted while these operations are disabled, the Flash will be permanently
locked from writes or erasures until the next device reset. If an application never
writes to Flash, it can intentionally lock the Flash by writing a non-0xA5 value to
FLKEY from software.

19. Oscillators and Clock Selection
C8051F388/9/A/B devices include a programmable internal high-frequency oscillator, a programmable
internal low-frequency oscillator, and an external oscillator drive circuit. The internal high-frequency oscillator can be enabled/disabled and calibrated using the OSCICN and OSCICL registers, as shown in
Figure 19.1. The internal low-frequency oscillator can be enabled/disabled and calibrated using the
OSCLCN register. The system clock can be sourced by the external oscillator circuit or either internal oscillator. Both internal oscillators offer a selectable post-scaling feature.

19.1. System Clock Selection
The CLKSL[2:0] bits in register CLKSEL select which oscillator source is used as the system clock.
CLKSL[2:0] must be set to 001b for the system clock to run from the external oscillator; however the external oscillator may still clock certain peripherals (timers, PCA) when the internal oscillator is selected as the
system clock. The system clock may be switched on-the-fly between the internal oscillators and external
oscillator so long as the selected clock source is enabled and running.
The internal high-frequency and low-frequency oscillators require little start-up time and may be selected
as the system clock immediately following the register write which enables the oscillator. The external RC
and C modes also typically require no startup time.

19.2. Programmable Internal High-Frequency (H-F) Oscillator
All C8051F388/9/A/B devices include a programmable internal high-frequency oscillator that defaults as
the system clock after a system reset. The internal oscillator period can be adjusted via the OSCICL register as defined by SFR Definition 19.2.
On C8051F388/9/A/B devices, OSCICL is factory calibrated to obtain a 48 MHz base frequency. Note that
the system clock may be derived from the programmed internal oscillator divided by 1, 2, 4, or 8 after a
divide by 4 stage, as defined by the IFCN bits in register OSCICN. The divide value defaults to 8 following
a reset, which results in a 1.5 MHz system clock.
19.2.1. Internal Oscillator Suspend Mode
When software writes a logic 1 to SUSPEND (OSCICN.5), the internal oscillator is suspended. If the system clock is derived from the internal oscillator, the input clock to the peripheral or CIP-51 will be stopped
until a rising or falling edge occurs on the INT2 pin.
When one of the oscillator awakening events occur, the internal oscillator, CIP-51, and affected peripherals
resume normal operation. The CPU resumes execution at the instruction following the write to the SUSPEND bit.
Note: The prefetch engine can be turned off in suspend mode to save power. Additionally, both Voltage
Regulators (REG0 and REG1) have low-power modes for additional power savings in suspend mode.

19.4. Programmable Internal Low-Frequency (L-F) Oscillator
All C8051F388/9/A/B devices include a programmable low-frequency internal oscillator, which is calibrated
to a nominal frequency of 80 kHz. The low-frequency oscillator circuit includes a divider that can be
changed to divide the clock by 1, 2, 4, or 8, using the OSCLD bits in the OSCLCN register (see SFR Definition 19.5). Additionally, the OSCLF[3:0] bits can be used to adjust the oscillator’s output frequency.
19.4.1. Calibrating the Internal L-F Oscillator
Timers 2 and 3 include capture functions that can be used to capture the oscillator frequency, when running from a known time base. When either Timer 2 or Timer 3 is configured for L-F Oscillator Capture
Mode, a falling edge (Timer 2) or rising edge (Timer 3) of the low-frequency oscillator’s output will cause a
capture event on the corresponding timer. As a capture event occurs, the current timer value
(TMRnH:TMRnL) is copied into the timer reload registers (TMRnRLH:TMRnRLL). By recording the difference between two successive timer capture values, the low-frequency oscillator’s period can be calculated. The OSCLF bits can then be adjusted to produce the desired oscillator frequency.

19.5. External Oscillator Drive Circuit
The external oscillator circuit may drive an external crystal, ceramic resonator, capacitor, or RC network. A
CMOS clock may also provide a clock input. Figure 19.1 shows a block diagram of the four external oscillator options. The external oscillator is enabled and configured using the OSCXCN register (see SFR Definition 19.6).
Important Note on External Oscillator Usage: Port pins must be configured when using the external
oscillator circuit. When the external oscillator drive circuit is enabled in crystal/resonator mode, Port pins
P0.2 and P0.3 are used as XTAL1 and XTAL2, respectively. When the external oscillator drive circuit is
enabled in capacitor, RC, or CMOS clock mode, Port pin P0.3 is used as XTAL2. The Port I/O Crossbar
should be configured to skip the Port pin used by the oscillator circuit; see Section “20.1. Priority Crossbar
Decoder” on page 148 for Crossbar configuration. Additionally, when using the external oscillator circuit in
crystal/resonator, capacitor, or RC mode, the associated Port pins should be configured as analog inputs.
In CMOS clock mode, the associated pin should be configured as a digital input. See Section “20.2. Port
I/O Initialization” on page 152 for details on Port input mode selection.
The external oscillator output may be selected as the system clock or used to clock some of the digital
peripherals (e.g. Timers, PCA, etc.). See the data sheet chapters for each digital peripheral for details. See
Section “5. Electrical Characteristics” on page 34 for complete oscillator specifications.
19.5.1. External Crystal Mode
If a crystal or ceramic resonator is used as the external oscillator, the crystal/resonator and a 10 Mresistor must be wired across the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins as shown in Option 1 of Figure 19.1. Appropriate
loading capacitors should be added to XTAL1 and XTAL2, and both pins should be configured for analog
I/O with the digital output drivers disabled.
The capacitors shown in the external crystal configuration provide the load capacitance required by the
crystal for correct oscillation. These capacitors are “in series” as seen by the crystal and “in parallel” with
the stray capacitance of the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins.
Note: The recommended load capacitance depends upon the crystal and the manufacturer. Refer to the
crystal data sheet when completing these calculations.
The equation for determining the load capacitance for two capacitors is
CA  CB
C L = ----------------------- + C S
CA + CB
Where:
CA and CB are the capacitors connected to the crystal leads.
CS is the total stray capacitance of the PCB.
The stray capacitance for a typical layout where the crystal is as close as possible to the pins is 2-5 pF per
pin.
If CA and CB are the same (C), then the equation becomes
C
C L = ---- + C S
2
For example, a tuning-fork crystal of 32 kHz with a recommended load capacitance of 12.5 pF should use
the configuration shown in Figure 19.1, Option 1. With a stray capacitance of 3 pF per pin (6 pF total), the
13 pF capacitors yield an equivalent capacitance of 12.5 pF across the crystal, as shown in Figure 19.2.

Figure 19.2. External Crystal Example
Important Note on External Crystals: Crystal oscillator circuits are quite sensitive to PCB layout. The
crystal should be placed as close as possible to the XTAL pins on the device. The traces should be as
short as possible and shielded with ground plane from any other traces which could introduce noise or
interference.
When using an external crystal, the external oscillator drive circuit must be configured by software for Crystal Oscillator Mode or Crystal Oscillator Mode with divide by 2 stage. The divide by 2 stage ensures that the
clock derived from the external oscillator has a duty cycle of 50%. The External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) must also be specified based on the crystal frequency (see SFR Definition 19.6).
When the crystal oscillator is first enabled, the external oscillator valid detector allows software to determine when the external system clock is valid and running. Switching to the external oscillator before the
crystal oscillator has stabilized can result in unpredictable behavior. The recommended procedure for starting the crystal is:
1. Configure XTAL1 and XTAL2 for analog I/O.
2. Disable the XTAL1 and XTAL2 digital output drivers by writing 1s to the appropriate bits in the Port
Latch register.
3. Configure and enable the external oscillator.
4. Wait at least 1 ms.
5. Poll for XTLVLD > 1.
6. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.

19.5.2. External RC Example
If an RC network is used as an external oscillator source for the MCU, the circuit should be configured as
shown in Figure 19.1, “RC Mode”. The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however, for very small
capacitors, the total capacitance may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. To determine the required External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register, first
select the RC network value to produce the desired frequency of oscillation, according to Equation 19.1,
where f = the frequency of oscillation in MHz, C = the capacitor value in pF, and R = the pull-up resistor
value in k.
3
f = 1.23  10 §  R  C 
Equation 19.1. RC Mode Oscillator Frequency
For example: If the frequency desired is 100 kHz, let R = 246 k and C = 50 pF:
f = 1.23( 103 ) / RC = 1.23 ( 103 ) / [ 246 x 50 ] = 0.1 MHz = 100 kHz
Referring to the table in SFR Definition 19.6, the required XFCN setting is 010b.
19.5.3. External Capacitor Example
If a capacitor is used as an external oscillator for the MCU, the circuit should be configured as shown in
Figure 19.1, “C Mode”. The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however, for very small capacitors, the total capacitance may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. To determine the
required External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register, select the capacitor to be used and find the frequency of oscillation according to Equation 19.2, where f = the frequency of
oscillation in MHz, C = the capacitor value in pF, and VDD = the MCU power supply in Volts.
f =  KF    C  V DD 
Equation 19.2. C Mode Oscillator Frequency
For example: Assume VDD = 3.0 V and f = 150 kHz:
f = KF / (C x VDD)
0.150 MHz = KF / (C x 3.0)
Since the frequency of roughly 150 kHz is desired, select the K Factor from the table in SFR Definition 19.6
(OSCXCN) as KF = 22:
0.150 MHz = 22 / (C x 3.0)
C x 3.0 = 22 / 0.150 MHz
C = 146.6 / 3.0 pF = 48.8 pF
Therefore, the XFCN value to use in this example is 011b and C = 50 pF.

20. Port Input/Output
Digital and analog resources are available through 40 I/O pins (C8051F388/A) or 25 I/O pins (C8051F389/
B). Port pins are organized as shown in Figure 20.1. Each of the Port pins can be defined as general-purpose I/O (GPIO) or analog input; Port pins P0.0-P3.7 can be assigned to one of the internal digital
resources as shown in Figure 20.3. The designer has complete control over which functions are assigned,
limited only by the number of physical I/O pins. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved through the
use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. Note that the state of a Port I/O pin can always be read in the corresponding Port latch, regardless of the Crossbar settings.
The Crossbar assigns the selected internal digital resources to the I/O pins based on the Priority Decoder
(Figure 20.3 and Figure 20.4). The registers XBR0, XBR1, and XBR2 defined in SFR Definition 20.1, SFR
Definition 20.2, and SFR Definition 20.3, are used to select internal digital functions.
All Port I/Os are 5 V tolerant (refer to Figure 20.2 for the Port cell circuit). The Port I/O cells are configured
as either push-pull or open-drain in the Port Output Mode registers (PnMDOUT, where n = 0,1,2,3,4).

Figure 20.2. Port I/O Cell Block Diagram
20.1. Priority Crossbar Decoder
The Priority Crossbar Decoder (Figure 20.3) assigns a priority to each I/O function, starting at the top with
UART0. When a digital resource is selected, the least-significant unassigned Port pin is assigned to that
resource (excluding UART0, which is always at pins 4 and 5). If a Port pin is assigned, the Crossbar skips
that pin when assigning the next selected resource. Additionally, the Crossbar will skip Port pins whose
associated bits in the PnSKIP registers are set. The PnSKIP registers allow software to skip Port pins that
are to be used for analog input, dedicated functions, or GPIO.
If a Port pin is claimed by a peripheral without use of the Crossbar, its corresponding PnSKIP bit should be
set. This applies to the VREF signal, external oscillator pins (XTAL1, XTAL2), the ADC’s external conversion start signal (CNVSTR), EMIF control signals, and any selected ADC or Comparator inputs. The
PnSKIP registers may also be used to skip pins to be used as GPIO. The Crossbar skips selected pins as
if they were already assigned, and moves to the next unassigned pin. Figure 20.3 shows all the possible
pins available to each peripheral. Figure 20.4 shows an example Crossbar configuration with no Port pins
skipped. Figure 20.5 shows the same Crossbar example with pins P0.2, P0.3, and P1.0 skipped.
Registers XBR0, XBR1, and XBR2 are used to assign the digital I/O resources to the physical I/O Port
pins. Note that when either SMBus is selected, the Crossbar assigns both pins associated with the SMBus
(SDA and SCL); when either UART is selected, the Crossbar assigns both pins associated with the UART
(TX and RX). UART0 pin assignments are fixed for bootloading purposes: UART TX0 is always assigned
to P0.4; UART RX0 is always assigned to P0.5. Standard Port I/Os appear contiguously after the prioritized
functions have been assigned.
Important Note: The SPI can be operated in either 3-wire or 4-wire modes, depending on the state of the
NSSMD1-NSSMD0 bits in register SPI0CN. According to the SPI mode, the NSS signal may or may not be
routed to a Port pin.

20.2. Port I/O Initialization
Port I/O initialization consists of the following steps:
1. Select the input mode (analog or digital) for all Port pins, using the Port Input Mode register (PnMDIN).
2. Select the output mode (open-drain or push-pull) for all Port pins, using the Port Output Mode register
(PnMDOUT).
3. Select any pins to be skipped by the I/O Crossbar using the Port Skip registers (PnSKIP).
4. Assign Port pins to desired peripherals (XBR0, XBR1).
5. Enable the Crossbar (XBARE = 1).
All Port pins must be configured as either analog or digital inputs. Any pins to be used as Comparator or
ADC inputs should be configured as an analog inputs. When a pin is configured as an analog input, its
weak pull-up, digital driver, and digital receiver are disabled. This process saves power and reduces noise
on the analog input. Pins configured as digital inputs may still be used by analog peripherals; however this
practice is not recommended. To configure a Port pin for digital input, write 0 to the corresponding bit in
register PnMDOUT, and write 1 to the corresponding Port latch (register Pn).
Additionally, all analog input pins should be configured to be skipped by the Crossbar (accomplished by
setting the associated bits in PnSKIP). Port input mode is set in the PnMDIN register, where a 1 indicates a
digital input, and a 0 indicates an analog input. All pins default to digital inputs on reset.
The output driver characteristics of the I/O pins are defined using the Port Output Mode registers (PnMDOUT). Each Port Output driver can be configured as either open drain or push-pull. This selection is
required even for the digital resources selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic. The only
exception to this are the SMBus (SDA, SCL, SDA1 and SCL1) pins, which are configured as open-drain
regardless of the PnMDOUT settings. When the WEAKPUD bit in XBR1 is 0, a weak pull-up is enabled for
all Port I/O configured as open-drain. WEAKPUD does not affect the push-pull Port I/O. Furthermore, the
weak pull-up is turned off on an output that is driving a 0 to avoid unnecessary power dissipation.
Registers XBR0 and XBR1 must be loaded with the appropriate values to select the digital I/O functions
required by the design. Setting the XBARE bit in XBR1 to 1 enables the Crossbar. Until the Crossbar is
enabled, the external pins remain as standard Port I/O (in input mode), regardless of the XBRn Register
settings. For given XBRn Register settings, one can determine the I/O pin-out using the Priority Decode
Table; as an alternative, the Configuration Wizard utility of the Silicon Labs IDE software will determine the
Port I/O pin-assignments based on the XBRn Register settings.
Important Note: The Crossbar must be enabled to use Ports P0, P1, P2, and P3 as standard Port I/O in
output mode. These Port output drivers are disabled while the Crossbar is disabled. Port 4 always functions as standard GPIO.

20.3. General Purpose Port I/O
Port pins that remain unassigned by the Crossbar and are not used by analog peripherals can be used for
general purpose I/O. Ports 3-0 are accessed through corresponding special function registers (SFRs) that
are both byte addressable and bit addressable. Port 4 (C8051F388/A only) uses an SFR which is
byte-addressable. When writing to a Port, the value written to the SFR is latched to maintain the output
data value at each pin. When reading, the logic levels of the Port's input pins are returned regardless of the
XBRn settings (i.e., even when the pin is assigned to another signal by the Crossbar, the Port register can
always read its corresponding Port I/O pin). The exception to this is the execution of the read-modify-write
instructions. The read-modify-write instructions when operating on a Port SFR are the following: ANL,
ORL, XRL, JBC, CPL, INC, DEC, DJNZ and MOV, CLR or SETB, when the destination is an individual bit
in a Port SFR. For these instructions, the value of the register (not the pin) is read, modified, and written
back to the SFR.

21. SMBus0 and SMBus1 (I2C Compatible)
The SMBus I/O interface is a two-wire, bi-directional serial bus. The SMBus is compliant with the System
Management Bus Specification, version 1.1, and compatible with the I2C serial bus. The C8051F388/9/A/B
devices contain two SMBus interfaces, SMBus0 and SMBus1.
Reads and writes to the SMBus by the system controller are byte oriented with the SMBus interface autonomously controlling the serial transfer of the data. Data can be transferred at up to 1/20th of the system
clock as a master or slave (this can be faster than allowed by the SMBus specification, depending on the
system clock used). A method of extending the clock-low duration is available to accommodate devices
with different speed capabilities on the same bus.
The SMBus may operate as a master and/or slave, and may function on a bus with multiple masters. The
SMBus provides control of SDA (serial data), SCL (serial clock) generation and synchronization, arbitration
logic, and START/STOP control and generation. The SMBus peripherals can be fully driven by software
(i.e., software accepts/rejects slave addresses, and generates ACKs), or hardware slave address recognition and automatic ACK generation can be enabled to minimize software overhead. A block diagram of the
SMBus0 peripheral and the associated SFRs is shown in Figure 21.1. SMBus1 is identical, with the exception of the available timer options for the clock source, and the timer used to implement the SCL low timeout feature. Refer to the specific SFR definitions for more details.

21.1. Supporting Documents
It is assumed the reader is familiar with or has access to the following supporting documents:
1. The I2C-Bus and How to Use It (including specifications), Philips Semiconductor.
2. The I2C-Bus Specification—Version 2.0, Philips Semiconductor.
3. System Management Bus Specification—Version 1.1, SBS Implementers Forum.
21.2. SMBus Configuration
Figure 21.2 shows a typical SMBus configuration. The SMBus specification allows any recessive voltage
between 3.0 V and 5.0 V; different devices on the bus may operate at different voltage levels. The bi-directional SCL (serial clock) and SDA (serial data) lines must be connected to a positive power supply voltage
through a pullup resistor or similar circuit. Every device connected to the bus must have an open-drain or
open-collector output for both the SCL and SDA lines, so that both are pulled high (recessive state) when
the bus is free. The maximum number of devices on the bus is limited only by the requirement that the rise
and fall times on the bus not exceed 300 ns and 1000 ns, respectively.
Figure 21.2. Typical SMBus Configuration
21.3. SMBus Operation
Two types of data transfers are possible: data transfers from a master transmitter to an addressed slave
receiver (WRITE), and data transfers from an addressed slave transmitter to a master receiver (READ).
The master device initiates both types of data transfers and provides the serial clock pulses on SCL. The
SMBus interface may operate as a master or a slave, and multiple master devices on the same bus are
supported. If two or more masters attempt to initiate a data transfer simultaneously, an arbitration scheme
is employed with a single master always winning the arbitration. It is not necessary to specify one device
as the Master in a system; any device who transmits a START and a slave address becomes the master
for the duration of that transfer.
A typical SMBus transaction consists of a START condition followed by an address byte (Bits7–1: 7-bit
slave address; Bit0: R/W direction bit), one or more bytes of data, and a STOP condition. Bytes that are
received (by a master or slave) are acknowledged (ACK) with a low SDA during a high SCL (see
Figure 21.3). If the receiving device does not ACK, the transmitting device will read a NACK (not acknowledge), which is a high SDA during a high SCL.
The direction bit (R/W) occupies the least-significant bit position of the address byte. The direction bit is set
to logic 1 to indicate a "READ" operation and cleared to logic 0 to indicate a "WRITE" operation.
Rev. 1.1
167
C8051F388/9/A/B
All transactions are initiated by a master, with one or more addressed slave devices as the target. The
master generates the START condition and then transmits the slave address and direction bit. If the transaction is a WRITE operation from the master to the slave, the master transmits the data a byte at a time
waiting for an ACK from the slave at the end of each byte. For READ operations, the slave transmits the
data waiting for an ACK from the master at the end of each byte. At the end of the data transfer, the master
generates a STOP condition to terminate the transaction and free the bus. Figure 21.3 illustrates a typical
SMBus transaction.
Figure 21.3. SMBus Transaction
21.3.1. Transmitter Vs. Receiver
On the SMBus communications interface, a device is the “transmitter” when it is sending an address or
data byte to another device on the bus. A device is a “receiver” when an address or data byte is being sent
to it from another device on the bus. The transmitter controls the SDA line during the address or data byte.
After each byte of address or data information is sent by the transmitter, the receiver sends an ACK or
NACK bit during the ACK phase of the transfer, during which time the receiver controls the SDA line.
21.3.2. Arbitration
A master may start a transfer only if the bus is free. The bus is free after a STOP condition or after the SCL
and SDA lines remain high for a specified time (see Section “21.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout” on
page 169). In the event that two or more devices attempt to begin a transfer at the same time, an arbitration scheme is employed to force one master to give up the bus. The master devices continue transmitting
until one attempts a HIGH while the other transmits a LOW. Since the bus is open-drain, the bus will be
pulled LOW. The master attempting the HIGH will detect a LOW SDA and lose the arbitration. The winning
master continues its transmission without interruption; the losing master becomes a slave and receives the
rest of the transfer if addressed. This arbitration scheme is non-destructive: one device always wins, and
no data is lost.
21.3.3. Clock Low Extension
SMBus provides a clock synchronization mechanism, similar to I2C, which allows devices with different
speed capabilities to coexist on the bus. A clock-low extension is used during a transfer in order to allow
slower slave devices to communicate with faster masters. The slave may temporarily hold the SCL line
LOW to extend the clock low period, effectively decreasing the serial clock frequency.
21.3.4. SCL Low Timeout
If the SCL line is held low by a slave device on the bus, no further communication is possible. Furthermore,
the master cannot force the SCL line high to correct the error condition. To solve this problem, the SMBus
protocol specifies that devices participating in a transfer must detect any clock cycle held low longer than
25 ms as a “timeout” condition. Devices that have detected the timeout condition must reset the communication no later than 10 ms after detecting the timeout condition.
For the SMBus0 interface, Timer 3 is used to implement SCL low timeouts. Timer 4 is used on the SMBus1
interface for SCL low timeouts. The SCL low timeout feature is enabled by setting the SMBnTOE bit in
SMBnCF. The associated timer is forced to reload when SCL is high, and allowed to count when SCL is
168
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
low. With the associated timer enabled and configured to overflow after 25 ms (and SMBnTOE set), the
timer interrupt service routine can be used to reset (disable and re-enable) the SMBus in the event of an
SCL low timeout.
21.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout
The SMBus specification stipulates that if the SCL and SDA lines remain high for more that 50 μs, the bus
is designated as free. When the SMBnFTE bit in SMBnCF is set, the bus will be considered free if SCL and
SDA remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (as defined by the timer configured for the
SMBus clock source). If the SMBus is waiting to generate a Master START, the START will be generated
following this timeout. A clock source is required for free timeout detection, even in a slave-only implementation.
21.4. Using the SMBus
The SMBus can operate in both Master and Slave modes. The interface provides timing and shifting control for serial transfers; higher level protocol is determined by user software. The SMBus interface provides
the following application-independent features:



Byte-wise serial data transfers

Timeout/bus error recognition, as defined by the SMB0CF configuration register
START/STOP timing, detection, and generation
Bus arbitration
Interrupt generation
Status information
Optional hardware recognition of slave address and automatic acknowledgement of address/data
SMBus interrupts are generated for each data byte or slave address that is transferred. When hardware
acknowledgment is disabled, the point at which the interrupt is generated depends on whether the hardware is acting as a data transmitter or receiver. When a transmitter (i.e., sending address/data, receiving
an ACK), this interrupt is generated after the ACK cycle so that software may read the received ACK value;
when receiving data (i.e., receiving address/data, sending an ACK), this interrupt is generated before the
ACK cycle so that software may define the outgoing ACK value. If hardware acknowledgment is enabled,
these interrupts are always generated after the ACK cycle. See Section 21.5 for more details on transmission sequences.
Interrupts are also generated to indicate the beginning of a transfer when a master (START generated), or
the end of a transfer when a slave (STOP detected). Software should read the SMBnCN (SMBus Control
register) to find the cause of the SMBus interrupt. The SMBnCN register is described in Section 21.4.3;
Table 21.5 provides a quick SMBnCN decoding reference.
21.4.1. SMBus Configuration Register
The SMBus Configuration register (SMBnCF) is used to enable the SMBus Master and/or Slave modes,
select the SMBus clock source, and select the SMBus timing and timeout options. When the ENSMB bit is
set, the SMBus is enabled for all master and slave events. Slave events may be disabled by setting the
INH bit. With slave events inhibited, the SMBus interface will still monitor the SCL and SDA pins; however,
the interface will NACK all received addresses and will not generate any slave interrupts. When the INH bit
is set, all slave events will be inhibited following the next START (interrupts will continue for the duration of
the current transfer).

source determine the absolute minimum SCL low and high times as defined in Equation 21.1.The selected
clock source may be shared by other peripherals so long as the timer is left running at all times. For example, Timer 1 overflows may generate the SMBus0 and SMBus1 clock rates simultaneously. Timer configuration is covered in Section “25. Timers” on page 224.

Equation 21.1. Minimum SCL High and Low Times
The selected clock source should be configured to establish the minimum SCL High and Low times as per
Equation 21.1. When the interface is operating as a master (and SCL is not driven or extended by any
other devices on the bus), the typical SMBus bit rate is approximated by Equation 21.2.
f ClockSourceOverflow
BitRate = -----------------------------------------------------------------3
Equation 21.2. Typical SMBus Bit Rate
Figure 21.4 shows the typical SCL generation described by Equation 21.2. Notice that THIGH is typically
twice as large as TLOW. The actual SCL output may vary due to other devices on the bus (SCL may be
extended low by slower slave devices, or driven low by contending master devices). The bit rate when
operating as a master will never exceed the limits defined by equation Equation 21.1.
Figure 21.4. Typical SMBus SCL Generation
Setting the EXTHOLD bit extends the minimum setup and hold times for the SDA line. The minimum SDA
setup time defines the absolute minimum time that SDA is stable before SCL transitions from low-to-high.
The minimum SDA hold time defines the absolute minimum time that the current SDA value remains stable
after SCL transitions from high-to-low. EXTHOLD should be set so that the minimum setup and hold times
meet the SMBus Specification requirements of 250 ns and 300 ns, respectively. Table 21.2 shows the min-

software acknowledgment, the s/w delay occurs between the time SMB0DAT or
ACK is written and when SI is cleared. Note that if SI is cleared in the same write
that defines the outgoing ACK value, s/w delay is zero.
With the SMBnTOE bit set, Timer 3 (SMBus0) and Timer 5 (SMBus1) should be configured to overflow
after 25 ms in order to detect SCL low timeouts (see Section “21.3.4. SCL Low Timeout” on page 168).
The SMBus interface will force the associated timer to reload while SCL is high, and allow the timer to
count when SCL is low. The timer interrupt service routine should be used to reset SMBus communication
by disabling and re-enabling the SMBus.
SMBus Free Timeout detection can be enabled by setting the SMBnFTE bit. When this bit is set, the bus
will be considered free if SDA and SCL remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (see
Figure 21.4).
21.4.2. SMBus Timing Control Register
The SMBus Timing Control Register (SMBTC) is used to restrict the detection of a START condition under
certain circumstances. In some systems where there is significant mis-match between the impedance or
the capacitance on the SDA and SCL lines, it may be possible for SCL to fall after SDA during an address
or data transfer. Such an event can cause a false START detection on the bus. These kind of events are
not expected in a standard SMBus or I2C-compliant system. In most systems this parameter should
not be adjusted, and it is recommended that it be left at its default value.
By default, if the SCL falling edge is detected after the falling edge of SDA (i.e. one SYSCLK cycle or
more), the device will detect this as a START condition. The SMBTC register is used to increase the
amount of hold time that is required between SDA and SCL falling before a START is recognized. An additional 2, 4, or 8 SYSCLKs can be added to prevent false START detection in systems where the bus conditions warrant this.

SMBus1 SCL Timeout Detection Enable.
This bit enables SCL low timeout detection. If set to logic 1, the SMBus1 forces
Timer 4 to reload while SCL1 is high and allows Timer 4 to count when SCL1 goes
low. If Timer 4 is configured to Split Mode, only the High Byte of the timer is held in
reload while SCL1 is high. Timer 4 should be programmed to generate interrupts at
25 ms, and the Timer 4 interrupt service routine should reset SMBus1 communication.

21.4.3. SMBnCN Control Register
SMBnCN is used to control the interface and to provide status information (see SFR Definition 21.4). The
higher four bits of SMBnCN (MASTER, TXMODE, STA, and STO) form a status vector that can be used to
jump to service routines. MASTER indicates whether a device is the master or slave during the current
transfer. TXMODE indicates whether the device is transmitting or receiving data for the current byte.
STA and STO indicate that a START and/or STOP has been detected or generated since the last SMBus
interrupt. STA and STO are also used to generate START and STOP conditions when operating as a master. Writing a 1 to STA will cause the SMBus interface to enter Master Mode and generate a START when
the bus becomes free (STA is not cleared by hardware after the START is generated). Writing a 1 to STO
while in Master Mode will cause the interface to generate a STOP and end the current transfer after the
next ACK cycle. If STO and STA are both set (while in Master Mode), a STOP followed by a START will be
generated.
The ARBLOST bit indicates that the interface has lost an arbitration. This may occur anytime the interface
is transmitting (master or slave). A lost arbitration while operating as a slave indicates a bus error condition. ARBLOST is cleared by hardware each time SI is cleared.
The SI bit (SMBus Interrupt Flag) is set at the beginning and end of each transfer, after each byte frame, or
when an arbitration is lost; see Table 21.3 for more details.
Important Note About the SI Bit: The SMBus interface is stalled while SI is set; thus SCL is held low, and
the bus is stalled until software clears SI.
21.4.3.1. Software ACK Generation
When the EHACK bit in register SMBnADM is cleared to 0, the firmware on the device must detect incoming slave addresses and ACK or NACK the slave address and incoming data bytes. As a receiver, writing
the ACK bit defines the outgoing ACK value; as a transmitter, reading the ACK bit indicates the value
received during the last ACK cycle. ACKRQ is set each time a byte is received, indicating that an outgoing
ACK value is needed. When ACKRQ is set, software should write the desired outgoing value to the ACK
bit before clearing SI. A NACK will be generated if software does not write the ACK bit before clearing SI.
SDA will reflect the defined ACK value immediately following a write to the ACK bit; however SCL will
remain low until SI is cleared. If a received slave address is not acknowledged, further slave events will be
ignored until the next START is detected.
21.4.3.2. Hardware ACK Generation
When the EHACK bit in register SMB0ADM is set to 1, automatic slave address recognition and ACK generation is enabled. More detail about automatic slave address recognition can be found in Section 21.4.4.
As a receiver, the value currently specified by the ACK bit will be automatically sent on the bus during the
ACK cycle of an incoming data byte. As a transmitter, reading the ACK bit indicates the value received on
the last ACK cycle. The ACKRQ bit is not used when hardware ACK generation is enabled. If a received
slave address is NACKed by hardware, further slave events will be ignored until the next START is
detected, and no interrupt will be generated.
Table 21.3 lists all sources for hardware changes to the SMBnCN bits. Refer to Table 21.5 for SMBus status decoding using the SMBnCN register.

21.4.4. Hardware Slave Address Recognition
The SMBus hardware has the capability to automatically recognize incoming slave addresses and send an
ACK without software intervention. Automatic slave address recognition is enabled by setting the EHACK
bit in register SMB0ADM to 1. This will enable both automatic slave address recognition and automatic
hardware ACK generation for received bytes (as a master or slave). More detail on automatic hardware
ACK generation can be found in Section 21.4.3.2.
The registers used to define which address(es) are recognized by the hardware are the SMBus Slave
Address register and the SMBus Slave Address Mask register. A single address or range of addresses
(including the General Call Address 0x00) can be specified using these two registers. The most-significant
seven bits of the two registers are used to define which addresses will be ACKed. A 1 in bit positions of the
slave address mask SLVM[6:0] enable a comparison between the received slave address and the hardware’s slave address SLV[6:0] for those bits. A 0 in a bit of the slave address mask means that bit will be
treated as a “don’t care” for comparison purposes. In this case, either a 1 or a 0 value are acceptable on
178
Rev. 1.1

the incoming slave address. Additionally, if the GCn bit in register SMBnADR is set to 1, hardware will recognize the General Call Address (0x00). Table 21.4 shows some example parameter settings and the
slave addresses that will be recognized by hardware under those conditions.

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

21.5. SMBus Transfer Modes
The SMBus interface may be configured to operate as master and/or slave. At any particular time, it will be
operating in one of the following four modes: Master Transmitter, Master Receiver, Slave Transmitter, or
Slave Receiver. The SMBus interface enters Master Mode any time a START is generated, and remains in
Master Mode until it loses an arbitration or generates a STOP. An SMBus interrupt is generated at the end
of all SMBus byte frames. The position of the ACK interrupt when operating as a receiver depends on
whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. As a receiver, the interrupt for an ACK occurs before the
ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is
enabled. As a transmitter, interrupts occur after the ACK, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation
is enabled or not.
21.5.1. Write Sequence (Master)
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The master in this transfer will be
a transmitter during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. The SMBus interface generates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 0 (WRITE). The master then transmits one or more bytes of serial data. After each byte is transmitted, an acknowledge bit is generated by
the slave. The transfer is ended when the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. The interface will switch
to Master Receiver Mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a Master Transmitter interrupt. Figure 21.5
shows a typical master write sequence. Two transmit data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes
may be transmitted. Notice that all of the “data byte transferred” interrupts occur after the ACK cycle in this
mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.

184
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
21.5.2. Read Sequence (Master)
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The master in this transfer will
be a transmitter during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. The SMBus interface generates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 1 (READ). Serial data is then
received from the slave on SDA while the SMBus outputs the serial clock. The slave transmits one or more
bytes of serial data.
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,
and then post the interrupt. It is important to note that the appropriate ACK or NACK value should be
set up by the software prior to receiving the byte when hardware ACK generation is enabled.
Writing a 1 to the ACK bit generates an ACK; writing a 0 generates a NACK. Software should write a 0 to
the ACK bit for the last data transfer, to transmit a NACK. The interface exits Master Receiver Mode after
the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. The interface will switch to Master Transmitter Mode if SMB0DAT is written while an active Master Receiver. Figure 21.6 shows a typical master read sequence. Two
received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. Notice that the ‘data byte
transferred’ interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after
the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

C8051F388/9/A/B
21.5.3. Write Sequence (Slave)
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The slave in this transfer will be
a receiver during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. When slave events are enabled
(INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode when a START followed by a slave address and direction bit (WRITE in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation is disabled, upon entering Slave
Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The software must respond to the
received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address with a NACK. If hardware ACK
generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address which matches the criteria set
up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK cycle.
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are
received.
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,
and then post the interrupt. It is important to note that the appropriate ACK or NACK value should be
set up by the software prior to receiving the byte when hardware ACK generation is enabled.
The interface exits Slave Receiver Mode after receiving a STOP. The interface will switch to Slave Transmitter Mode if SMB0DAT is written while an active Slave Receiver. Figure 21.7 shows a typical slave write
sequence. Two received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. Notice that
the ‘data byte transferred’ interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

21.5.4. Read Sequence (Slave)
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The slave in this transfer will
be a receiver during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. When slave events are
enabled (INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode (to receive the slave address) when a START
followed by a slave address and direction bit (READ in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation
is disabled, upon entering Slave Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The
software must respond to the received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address
with a NACK. If hardware ACK generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address
which matches the criteria set up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK
cycle.
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are transmitted. If the received slave address is acknowledged, data should be written to SMB0DAT to be transmitted. The interface enters slave transmitter mode, and transmits one or more bytes of data. After each byte
is transmitted, the master sends an acknowledge bit; if the acknowledge bit is an ACK, SMB0DAT should
be written with the next data byte. If the acknowledge bit is a NACK, SMB0DAT should not be written to
before SI is cleared (an error condition may be generated if SMB0DAT is written following a received
NACK while in slave transmitter mode). The interface exits slave transmitter mode after receiving a STOP.
The interface will switch to slave receiver mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a Slave Transmitter
interrupt. Figure 21.8 shows a typical slave read sequence. Two transmitted data bytes are shown, though
any number of bytes may be transmitted. Notice that all of the “data byte transferred” interrupts occur after
the ACK cycle in this mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.

21.6. SMBus Status Decoding
The current SMBus status can be easily decoded using the SMB0CN register. The appropriate actions to
take in response to an SMBus event depend on whether hardware slave address recognition and ACK
generation is enabled or disabled. Table 21.5 describes the typical actions when hardware slave address
recognition and ACK generation is disabled. Table 21.6 describes the typical actions when hardware slave
address recognition and ACK generation is enabled. In the tables, STATUS VECTOR refers to the four
upper bits of SMB0CN: MASTER, TXMODE, STA, and STO. The shown response options are only the typical responses; application-specific procedures are allowed as long as they conform to the SMBus specification. Highlighted responses are allowed by hardware but do not conform to the SMBus specification.

22. UART0
UART0 is an asynchronous, full duplex serial port offering modes 1 and 3 of the standard 8051 UART.
Enhanced baud rate support allows a wide range of clock sources to generate standard baud rates (details
in Section “22.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation” on page 194). Received data buffering allows UART0
to start reception of a second incoming data byte before software has finished reading the previous data
byte.
UART0 has two associated SFRs: Serial Control Register 0 (SCON0) and Serial Data Buffer 0 (SBUF0).
The single SBUF0 location provides access to both transmit and receive registers. Writes to SBUF0
always access the Transmit register. Reads of SBUF0 always access the buffered Receive register;
it is not possible to read data from the Transmit register.
With UART0 interrupts enabled, an interrupt is generated each time a transmit is completed (TI0 is set in
SCON0), or a data byte has been received (RI0 is set in SCON0). The UART0 interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine. They must be cleared manually
by software, allowing software to determine the cause of the UART0 interrupt (transmit complete or receive
complete).

Rev. 1.1

C8051F388/9/A/B
22.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation
The UART0 baud rate is generated by Timer 1 in 8-bit auto-reload mode. The TX clock is generated by
TL1; the RX clock is generated by a copy of TL1 (shown as RX Timer in Figure 22.2), which is not useraccessible. Both TX and RX Timer overflows are divided by two to generate the TX and RX baud rates.
The RX Timer runs when Timer 1 is enabled, and uses the same reload value (TH1). However, an
RX Timer reload is forced when a START condition is detected on the RX pin. This allows a receive to
begin any time a START is detected, independent of the TX Timer state.
Figure 22.2. UART0 Baud Rate Logic
Timer 1 should be configured for Mode 2, 8-bit auto-reload (see Section “25.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit
Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload” on page 228). The Timer 1 reload value should be set so that overflows
will occur at two times the desired UART baud rate frequency. Note that Timer 1 may be clocked by one of
six sources: SYSCLK, SYSCLK/4, SYSCLK/12, SYSCLK/48, the external oscillator clock/8, or an external
input T1. For any given Timer 1 clock source, the UART0 baud rate is determined by Equation 22.1-A and
Equation 22.1-B.

Where T1CLK is the frequency of the clock supplied to Timer 1, and T1H is the high byte of Timer 1 (reload
value). Timer 1 clock frequency is selected as described in Section “25. Timers” on page 224. A quick reference for typical baud rates and system clock frequencies is given in Table 22.1. The internal oscillator
may still generate the system clock when the external oscillator is driving Timer 1.

22.2. Operational Modes
UART0 provides standard asynchronous, full duplex communication. The UART mode (8-bit or 9-bit) is
selected by the S0MODE bit (SCON0.7). Typical UART connection options are shown in Figure 22.3.
Figure 22.3. UART Interconnect Diagram
22.2.1. 8-Bit UART
8-Bit UART mode uses a total of 10 bits per data byte: one start bit, eight data bits (LSB first), and one stop
bit. Data are transmitted LSB first from the TX0 pin and received at the RX0 pin. On receive, the eight data
bits are stored in SBUF0 and the stop bit goes into RB80 (SCON0.2).
Data transmission begins when software writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data reception can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to logic 1. After the stop bit is
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:
RI0 must be logic 0, and if MCE0 is logic 1, the stop bit must be logic 1. In the event of a receive data overrun, the first received 8 bits are latched into the SBUF0 receive register and the following overrun data bits
are lost.
If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data is stored in SBUF0, the stop bit is stored in RB80 and the
RI0 flag is set. If these conditions are not met, SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not
be set. An interrupt will occur if enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set.

Rev. 1.1

C8051F388/9/A/B
22.2.2. 9-Bit UART
9-bit UART mode uses a total of eleven bits per data byte: a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), a programmable ninth data bit, and a stop bit. The state of the ninth transmit data bit is determined by the value in TB80
(SCON0.3), which is assigned by user software. It can be assigned the value of the parity flag (bit P in register PSW) for error detection, or used in multiprocessor communications. On receive, the ninth data bit
goes into RB80 (SCON0.2) and the stop bit is ignored.
Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit
Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data
reception can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to 1. After the stop bit is
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:
(1) RI0 must be logic 0, and (2) if MCE0 is logic 1, the 9th bit must be logic 1 (when MCE0 is logic 0, the
state of the ninth data bit is unimportant). If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data are stored in
SBUF0, the ninth bit is stored in RB80, and the RI0 flag is set to 1. If the above conditions are not met,
SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not be set to 1. A UART0 interrupt will occur if
enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set to 1.

Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
22.3. Multiprocessor Communications
9-Bit UART mode supports multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more
slave processors by special use of the ninth data bit. When a master processor wants to transmit to one or
more slaves, it first sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs from a data byte
in that its ninth bit is logic 1; in a data byte, the ninth bit is always set to logic 0.
Setting the MCE0 bit (SCON0.5) of a slave processor configures its UART such that when a stop bit is
received, the UART will generate an interrupt only if the ninth bit is logic 1 (RB80 = 1) signifying an address
byte has been received. In the UART interrupt handler, software will compare the received address with
the slave's own assigned 8-bit address. If the addresses match, the slave will clear its MCE0 bit to enable
interrupts on the reception of the following data byte(s). Slaves that weren't addressed leave their MCE0
bits set and do not generate interrupts on the reception of the following data bytes, thereby ignoring the
data. Once the entire message is received, the addressed slave resets its MCE0 bit to ignore all transmissions until it receives the next address byte.
Multiple addresses can be assigned to a single slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple
slaves, thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The master
processor can be configured to receive all transmissions or a protocol can be implemented such that the
master/slave role is temporarily reversed to enable half-duplex transmission between the original master
and slave(s).

23. UART1
UART1 is an asynchronous, full duplex serial port offering a variety of data formatting options. A dedicated
baud rate generator with a 16-bit timer and selectable prescaler is included, which can generate a wide
range of baud rates (details in Section “23.1. Baud Rate Generator” on page 202). A received data FIFO
allows UART1 to receive up to three data bytes before data is lost and an overflow occurs.
UART1 has six associated SFRs. Three are used for the Baud Rate Generator (SBCON1, SBRLH1, and
SBRLL1), two are used for data formatting, control, and status functions (SCON1, SMOD1), and one is
used to send and receive data (SBUF1). The single SBUF1 location provides access to both the transmit
holding register and the receive FIFO. Writes to SBUF1 always access the Transmit Holding Register.
Reads of SBUF1 always access the first byte of the Receive FIFO; it is not possible to read data
from the Transmit Holding Register.
With UART1 interrupts enabled, an interrupt is generated each time a transmit is completed (TI1 is set in
SCON1), or a data byte has been received (RI1 is set in SCON1). The UART1 interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine. They must be cleared manually
by software, allowing software to determine the cause of the UART1 interrupt (transmit complete or receive
complete). Note that if additional bytes are available in the Receive FIFO, the RI1 bit cannot be cleared by
software.

23.1. Baud Rate Generator
The UART1 baud rate is generated by a dedicated 16-bit timer which runs from the controller’s core clock
(SYSCLK), and has prescaler options of 1, 4, 12, or 48. The timer and prescaler options combined allow
for a wide selection of baud rates over many SYSCLK frequencies.
The baud rate generator is configured using three registers: SBCON1, SBRLH1, and SBRLL1. The
UART1 Baud Rate Generator Control Register (SBCON1, SFR Definition ) enables or disables the baud
rate generator, and selects the prescaler value for the timer. The baud rate generator must be enabled for
UART1 to function. Registers SBRLH1 and SBRLL1 contain a 16-bit reload value for the dedicated 16-bit
timer. The internal timer counts up from the reload value on every clock tick. On timer overflows (0xFFFF
to 0x0000), the timer is reloaded. For reliable UART operation, it is recommended that the UART baud rate
is not configured for baud rates faster than SYSCLK/16. The baud rate for UART1 is defined in
Equation 23.1.

23.2. Data Format
UART1 has a number of available options for data formatting. Data transfers begin with a start bit (logic
low), followed by the data bits (sent LSB-first), a parity or extra bit (if selected), and end with one or two
stop bits (logic high). The data length is variable between 5 and 8 bits. A parity bit can be appended to the
data, and automatically generated and detected by hardware for even, odd, mark, or space parity. The stop
bit length is selectable between short (1 bit time) and long (1.5 or 2 bit times), and a multi-processor communication mode is available for implementing networked UART buses. All of the data formatting options
can be configured using the SMOD1 register, shown in SFR Definition . Figure 23.2 shows the timing for a
UART1 transaction without parity or an extra bit enabled. Figure 23.3 shows the timing for a UART1 transaction with parity enabled (PE1 = 1). Figure 23.4 is an example of a UART1 transaction when the extra bit
is enabled (XBE1 = 1). Note that the extra bit feature is not available when parity is enabled, and the second stop bit is only an option for data lengths of 6, 7, or 8 bits.

23.3. Configuration and Operation
UART1 provides standard asynchronous, full duplex communication. It can operate in a point-to-point
serial communications application, or as a node on a multi-processor serial interface. To operate in a pointto-point application, where there are only two devices on the serial bus, the MCE1 bit in SMOD1 should be
cleared to 0. For operation as part of a multi-processor communications bus, the MCE1 and XBE1 bits
should both be set to 1. In both types of applications, data is transmitted from the microcontroller on the
TX1 pin, and received on the RX1 pin. The TX1 and RX1 pins are configured using the crossbar and the
Port I/O registers, as detailed in Section “20. Port Input/Output” on page 147.
In typical UART communications, The transmit (TX) output of one device is connected to the receive (RX)
input of the other device, either directly or through a bus transceiver, as shown in Figure 23.5.
Figure 23.5. Typical UART Interconnect Diagram
23.3.1. Data Transmission
Data transmission is double-buffered, and begins when software writes a data byte to the SBUF1 register.
Writing to SBUF1 places data in the Transmit Holding Register, and the Transmit Holding Register Empty
flag (THRE1) will be cleared to 0. If the UARTs shift register is empty (i.e. no transmission is in progress)
the data will be placed in the shift register, and the THRE1 bit will be set to 1. If a transmission is in progress, the data will remain in the Transmit Holding Register until the current transmission is complete. The
TI1 Transmit Interrupt Flag (SCON1.1) will be set at the end of any transmission (the beginning of the stopbit time). If enabled, an interrupt will occur when TI1 is set.
If the extra bit function is enabled (XBE1 = 1) and the parity function is disabled (PE1 = 0), the value of the
TBX1 (SCON1.3) bit will be sent in the extra bit position. When the parity function is enabled (PE1 = 1),
hardware will generate the parity bit according to the selected parity type (selected with S1PT[1:0]), and
append it to the data field. Note: when parity is enabled, the extra bit function is not available.
23.3.2. Data Reception
Data reception can begin any time after the REN1 Receive Enable bit (SCON1.4) is set to logic 1. After the
stop bit is received, the data byte will be stored in the receive FIFO if the following conditions are met: the
receive FIFO (3 bytes deep) must not be full, and the stop bit(s) must be logic 1. In the event that the
receive FIFO is full, the incoming byte will be lost, and a Receive FIFO Overrun Error will be generated
(OVR1 in register SCON1 will be set to logic 1). If the stop bit(s) were logic 0, the incoming data will not be
stored in the receive FIFO. If the reception conditions are met, the data is stored in the receive FIFO, and
the RI1 flag will be set. Note: when MCE1 = 1, RI1 will only be set if the extra bit was equal to 1. Data can
be read from the receive FIFO by reading the SBUF1 register. The SBUF1 register represents the oldest
byte in the FIFO. After SBUF1 is read, the next byte in the FIFO is immediately loaded into SBUF1, and
space is made available in the FIFO for another incoming byte. If enabled, an interrupt will occur when RI1
is set. RI1 can only be cleared to '0' by software when there is no more information in the FIFO. The recommended procedure to empty the FIFO contents is:
204
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
1. Clear RI1 to 0
2. Read SBUF1
3. Check RI1, and repeat at Step 1 if RI1 is set to 1.
If the extra bit function is enabled (XBE1 = 1) and the parity function is disabled (PE1 = 0), the extra bit for
the oldest byte in the FIFO can be read from the RBX1 bit (SCON1.2). If the extra bit function is not
enabled, the value of the stop bit for the oldest FIFO byte will be presented in RBX1. When the parity function is enabled (PE1 = 1), hardware will check the received parity bit against the selected parity type
(selected with S1PT[1:0]) when receiving data. If a byte with parity error is received, the PERR1 flag will be
set to 1. This flag must be cleared by software. Note: when parity is enabled, the extra bit function is not
available.
23.3.3. Multiprocessor Communications
UART1 supports multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more slave processors by special use of the extra data bit. When a master processor wants to transmit to one or more
slaves, it first sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs from a data byte in that
its extra bit is logic 1; in a data byte, the extra bit is always set to logic 0.
Setting the MCE1 bit (SMOD1.7) of a slave processor configures its UART such that when a stop bit is
received, the UART will generate an interrupt only if the extra bit is logic 1 (RBX1 = 1) signifying an
address byte has been received. In the UART interrupt handler, software will compare the received
address with the slave's own assigned address. If the addresses match, the slave will clear its MCE1 bit to
enable interrupts on the reception of the following data byte(s). Slaves that weren't addressed leave their
MCE1 bits set and do not generate interrupts on the reception of the following data bytes, thereby ignoring
the data. Once the entire message is received, the addressed slave resets its MCE1 bit to ignore all transmissions until it receives the next address byte.
Multiple addresses can be assigned to a single slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple
slaves, thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The master
processor can be configured to receive all transmissions or a protocol can be implemented such that the
master/slave role is temporarily reversed to enable half-duplex transmission between the original master
and slave(s).

RI1 will remain set to '1' as long as there is still data in the UART FIFO. After the last byte has
been shifted from the FIFO to SBUF1, RI1 can be cleared.

24. Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0)
The Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0) provides access to a flexible, full-duplex synchronous
serial bus. SPI0 can operate as a master or slave device in both 3-wire or 4-wire modes, and supports multiple masters and slaves on a single SPI bus. The slave-select (NSS) signal can be configured as an input
to select SPI0 in slave mode, or to disable Master Mode operation in a multi-master environment, avoiding
contention on the SPI bus when more than one master attempts simultaneous data transfers. NSS can
also be configured as a chip-select output in master mode, or disabled for 3-wire operation. Additional general purpose port I/O pins can be used to select multiple slave devices in master mode.
Figure 24.1. SPI Block Diagram
Rev. 1.1
211
C8051F388/9/A/B
24.1. Signal Descriptions
The four signals used by SPI0 (MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS) are described below.
24.1.1. Master Out, Slave In (MOSI)
The master-out, slave-in (MOSI) signal is an output from a master device and an input to slave devices. It
is used to serially transfer data from the master to the slave. This signal is an output when SPI0 is operating as a master and an input when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit
first. When configured as a master, MOSI is driven by the MSB of the shift register in both 3- and 4-wire
mode.
24.1.2. Master In, Slave Out (MISO)
The master-in, slave-out (MISO) signal is an output from a slave device and an input to the master device.
It is used to serially transfer data from the slave to the master. This signal is an input when SPI0 is operating as a master and an output when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit
first. The MISO pin is placed in a high-impedance state when the SPI module is disabled and when the SPI
operates in 4-wire mode as a slave that is not selected. When acting as a slave in 3-wire mode, MISO is
always driven by the MSB of the shift register.
24.1.3. Serial Clock (SCK)
The serial clock (SCK) signal is an output from the master device and an input to slave devices. It is used
to synchronize the transfer of data between the master and slave on the MOSI and MISO lines. SPI0 generates this signal when operating as a master. The SCK signal is ignored by a SPI slave when the slave is
not selected (NSS = 1) in 4-wire slave mode.
24.1.4. Slave Select (NSS)
The function of the slave-select (NSS) signal is dependent on the setting of the NSSMD1 and NSSMD0
bits in the SPI0CN register. There are three possible modes that can be selected with these bits:
1. NSSMD[1:0] = 00: 3-Wire Master or 3-Wire Slave Mode: SPI0 operates in 3-wire mode, and NSS is
disabled. When operating as a slave device, SPI0 is always selected in 3-wire mode. Since no select
signal is present, SPI0 must be the only slave on the bus in 3-wire mode. This is intended for point-topoint communication between a master and one slave.
2. NSSMD[1:0] = 01: 4-Wire Slave or Multi-Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is
enabled as an input. When operating as a slave, NSS selects the SPI0 device. When operating as a
master, a 1-to-0 transition of the NSS signal disables the master function of SPI0 so that multiple
master devices can be used on the same SPI bus.
3. NSSMD[1:0] = 1x: 4-Wire Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is enabled as an
output. The setting of NSSMD0 determines what logic level the NSS pin will output. This configuration
should only be used when operating SPI0 as a master device.
See Figure 24.2, Figure 24.3, and Figure 24.4 for typical connection diagrams of the various operational
modes. Note that the setting of NSSMD bits affects the pinout of the device. When in 3-wire master or
3-wire slave mode, the NSS pin will not be mapped by the crossbar. In all other modes, the NSS signal will
be mapped to a pin on the device. See Section “20. Port Input/Output” on page 147 for general purpose
port I/O and crossbar information.
24.2. SPI0 Master Mode Operation
A SPI master device initiates all data transfers on a SPI bus. SPI0 is placed in master mode by setting the
Master Enable flag (MSTEN, SPI0CN.6). Writing a byte of data to the SPI0 data register (SPI0DAT) when
in master mode writes to the transmit buffer. If the SPI shift register is empty, the byte in the transmit buffer
is moved to the shift register, and a data transfer begins. The SPI0 master immediately shifts out the data
serially on the MOSI line while providing the serial clock on SCK. The SPIF (SPI0CN.7) flag is set to logic
212
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
1 at the end of the transfer. If interrupts are enabled, an interrupt request is generated when the SPIF flag
is set. While the SPI0 master transfers data to a slave on the MOSI line, the addressed SPI slave device
simultaneously transfers the contents of its shift register to the SPI master on the MISO line in a full-duplex
operation. Therefore, the SPIF flag serves as both a transmit-complete and receive-data-ready flag. The
data byte received from the slave is transferred MSB-first into the master's shift register. When a byte is
fully shifted into the register, it is moved to the receive buffer where it can be read by the processor by
reading SPI0DAT.
When configured as a master, SPI0 can operate in one of three different modes: multi-master mode, 3-wire
single-master mode, and 4-wire single-master mode. The default, multi-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In this mode, NSS is an input to the device, and is
used to disable the master SPI0 when another master is accessing the bus. When NSS is pulled low in this
mode, MSTEN (SPI0CN.6) and SPIEN (SPI0CN.0) are set to 0 to disable the SPI master device, and a
Mode Fault is generated (MODF, SPI0CN.5 = 1). Mode Fault will generate an interrupt if enabled. SPI0
must be manually re-enabled in software under these circumstances. In multi-master systems, devices will
typically default to being slave devices while they are not acting as the system master device. In multi-master mode, slave devices can be addressed individually (if needed) using general-purpose I/O pins.
Figure 24.2 shows a connection diagram between two master devices in multiple-master mode.
3-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. In this
mode, NSS is not used, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Any slave devices
that must be addressed in this mode should be selected using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 24.3
shows a connection diagram between a master device in 3-wire master mode and a slave device.
4-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 1. In this mode, NSS is configured as an
output pin, and can be used as a slave-select signal for a single SPI device. In this mode, the output value
of NSS is controlled (in software) with the bit NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2). Additional slave devices can be
addressed using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 24.4 shows a connection diagram for a master device in
4-wire master mode and two slave devices.

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

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

25. Timers
Each MCU includes six counter/timers: two are 16-bit counter/timers compatible with those found in the
standard 8051, and four are 16-bit auto-reload timer for use with the SMBus or for general purpose use.
These timers can be used to measure time intervals, count external events and generate periodic interrupt
requests. Timer 0 and Timer 1 are nearly identical and have four primary modes of operation. Timer 2, 3, 4,
and 5 offer 16-bit and split 8-bit timer functionality with auto-reload.
Timer 0 and Timer 1 Modes:
Timer 2, 3, 4, and 5 Modes:
13-bit counter/timer
16-bit timer with auto-reload
16-bit counter/timer
8-bit counter/timer with auto-reload
Two 8-bit timers with auto-reload
Two 8-bit counter/timers (Timer 0 only)
Timers 0 and 1 may be clocked by one of five sources, determined by the Timer Mode Select bits (T1M–
T0M) and the Clock Scale bits (SCA1–SCA0). The Clock Scale bits define a pre-scaled clock from which
Timer 0 and/or Timer 1 may be clocked (See SFR Definition 25.1 for pre-scaled clock selection).
Timer 0/1 may then be configured to use this pre-scaled clock signal or the system clock. Timer 2, 3, 4,
and 5 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock
source divided by 8.
Timer 0 and Timer 1 may also be operated as counters. When functioning as a counter, a counter/timer
register is incremented on each high-to-low transition at the selected input pin (T0 or T1). Events with a frequency of up to one-fourth the system clock frequency can be counted. The input signal need not be periodic, but it should be held at a given level for at least two full system clock cycles to ensure the level is
properly sampled.

25.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1
Each timer is implemented as a 16-bit register accessed as two separate bytes: a low byte (TL0 or TL1)
and a high byte (TH0 or TH1). The Counter/Timer Control register (TCON) is used to enable Timer 0 and
Timer 1 as well as indicate status. Timer 0 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET0 bit in the IE register; Timer 1 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET1 bit in the IE register. Both counter/timers operate
in one of four primary modes selected by setting the Mode Select bits T1M1–T0M0 in the Counter/Timer
Mode register (TMOD). Each timer can be configured independently. Each operating mode is described
below.
25.1.1. Mode 0: 13-bit Counter/Timer
Timer 0 and Timer 1 operate as 13-bit counter/timers in Mode 0. The following describes the configuration
and operation of Timer 0. However, both timers operate identically, and Timer 1 is configured in the same
manner as described for Timer 0.
The TH0 register holds the eight MSBs of the 13-bit counter/timer. TL0 holds the five LSBs in bit positions
TL0.4–TL0.0. The three upper bits of TL0 (TL0.7–TL0.5) are indeterminate and should be masked out or
ignored when reading. As the 13-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0x1FFF (all ones) to
0x0000, the timer overflow flag TF0 in TCON is set and an interrupt will occur if Timer 0 interrupts are
enabled.
The C/T0 bit in the TMOD register selects the counter/timer's clock source. When C/T0 is set to logic 1,
high-to-low transitions at the selected Timer 0 input pin (T0) increment the timer register (Refer to Section
“20.1. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 148 for information on selecting and configuring external I/O
pins). Clearing C/T selects the clock defined by the T0M bit in register CKCON. When T0M is set, Timer 0
is clocked by the system clock. When T0M is cleared, Timer 0 is clocked by the source selected by the
Clock Scale bits in CKCON (see SFR Definition 25.1).
Setting the TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 in the TMOD register is logic 0 or the
input signal INT0 is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF. Setting GATE0 to 1 allows the timer
to be controlled by the external input signal INT0, facilitating pulse width measurements

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

25.1.2. Mode 1: 16-bit Counter/Timer
Mode 1 operation is the same as Mode 0, except that the counter/timer registers use all 16 bits. The
counter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 1 in the same manner as for Mode 0.
25.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload
Mode 2 configures Timer 0 and Timer 1 to operate as 8-bit counter/timers with automatic reload of the start
value. TL0 holds the count and TH0 holds the reload value. When the counter in TL0 overflows from all
ones to 0x00, the timer overflow flag TF0 in the TCON register is set and the counter in TL0 is reloaded
from TH0. If Timer 0 interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will occur when the TF0 flag is set. The reload
value in TH0 is not changed. TL0 must be initialized to the desired value before enabling the timer for the
first count to be correct. When in Mode 2, Timer 1 operates identically to Timer 0.
Both counter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 2 in the same manner as Mode 0. Setting the
TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 in the TMOD register is logic 0 or when the input
signal INT0 is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see SFR Definition 16.7 for details on the
external input signals INT0 and INT1).

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

25.2. Timer 2
Timer 2 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR2L (low byte) and TMR2H (high byte). Timer 2 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode, (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode, or Low-Frequency Oscillator (LFO) Falling Edge capture mode. The Timer 2 operation mode is defined by the T2SPLIT (TMR2CN.3), T2CE
(TMR2CN.4) bits, and T2CSS (TMR2CN.1) bits.
Timer 2 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator
source divided by 8. The external clock mode is ideal for real-time clock (RTC) functionality, where the
internal oscillator drives the system clock while Timer 2 (and/or the PCA) is clocked by an external precision oscillator. Note that the external oscillator source divided by 8 is synchronized with the system clock.
25.2.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T2SPLIT (TMR2CN.3) is zero, Timer 2 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 2 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8. As the
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 2
reload registers (TMR2RLH and TMR2RLL) is loaded into the Timer 2 register as shown in Figure 25.4,
and the Timer 2 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR2CN.7) is set. If Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (if IE.5 is
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 2 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 2 interrupts are enabled
and the TF2LEN bit is set (TMR2CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR2L)
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

C8051F388/9/A/B
25.2.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T2SPLIT is set, Timer 2 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR2H and TMR2L). Both 8-bit timers operate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 25.5. TMR2RLL holds the reload value for TMR2L; TMR2RLH
holds the reload value for TMR2H. The TR2 bit in TMR2CN handles the run control for TMR2H. TMR2L is
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock
source divided by 8. The Timer 2 Clock Select bits (T2MH and T2ML in CKCON) select either SYSCLK or
the clock defined by the Timer 2 External Clock Select bit (T2XCLK in TMR2CN), as follows:
T2MH
T2XCLK

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

25.2.3. Timer 2 Capture Modes: LFO Falling Edge
When T2CE = 1, Timer 2 will operate in a special capture mode with the LFO (T2CSS is set to 1). The LFO
falling-edge capture mode can be used to calibrate the internal Low-Frequency Oscillator against the internal High-Frequency Oscillator or an external clock source. When T2SPLIT = 0, Timer 2 counts up and
overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000. Each time a capture event is received, the contents of the Timer 2 registers (TMR2H:TMR2L) are latched into the Timer 2 Reload registers (TMR2RLH:TMR2RLL). A Timer 2
interrupt is generated if enabled.

25.3. Timer 3
Timer 3 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR3L (low byte) and TMR3H (high byte). Timer 3 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode, (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode, or Low-Frequency Oscillator (LFO) Rising Edge capture mode. The Timer 3 operation mode is defined by the T3SPLIT (TMR3CN.3), T3CE
(TMR3CN.4) bits, and T3CSS (TMR3CN.1) bits.
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator
source divided by 8. The external clock mode is ideal for real-time clock (RTC) functionality, where the
internal oscillator drives the system clock while Timer 3 (and/or the PCA) is clocked by an external precision oscillator. Note that the external oscillator source divided by 8 is synchronized with the system clock.
25.3.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T3SPLIT (TMR3CN.3) is zero, Timer 3 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 3 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8. As the
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 3
reload registers (TMR3RLH and TMR3RLL) is loaded into the Timer 3 register as shown in Figure 25.8,
and the Timer 3 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR3CN.7) is set. If Timer 3 interrupts are enabled (if EIE1.7 is
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 3 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 3 interrupts are enabled
and the TF3LEN bit is set (TMR3CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR3L)
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

25.3.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T3SPLIT is 1 and T3CE = 0, Timer 3 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR3H and TMR3L). Both 8-bit
timers operate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 25.9. TMR3RLL holds the reload value for TMR3L;
TMR3RLH holds the reload value for TMR3H. The TR3 bit in TMR3CN handles the run control for TMR3H.
TMR3L is always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock
source divided by 8. The Timer 3 Clock Select bits (T3MH and T3ML in CKCON) select either SYSCLK or
the clock defined by the Timer 3 External Clock Select bit (T3XCLK in TMR3CN), as follows:

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

interrupt is generated if enabled.

When T3SPLIT = 1, the Timer 3 registers (TMR3H and TMR3L) act as two 8-bit counters. Each counter
counts up independently and overflows from 0xFF to 0x00. Each time a capture event is received, the contents of the Timer 3 registers are latched into the Timer 3 Reload registers (TMR3RLH and TMR3RLL). A
Timer 3 interrupt is generated if enabled.

25.4. Timer 4
Timer 4 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR4L (low byte) and TMR4H (high byte). Timer 4 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T4SPLIT bit (TMR4CN.3) defines
Timer 4 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator
source divided by 8. Note that the external oscillator source divided by 8 is synchronized with the system
clock.
25.4.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T4SPLIT (TMR4CN.3) is zero, Timer 4 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 4 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8. As the
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 4
reload registers (TMR4RLH and TMR4RLL) is loaded into the Timer 4 register as shown in Figure 25.12,
and the Timer 4 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR4CN.7) is set. If Timer 4 interrupts are enabled (if EIE1.7 is
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 4 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 4 interrupts are enabled
and the TF4LEN bit is set (TMR4CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR4L)
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

25.4.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T4SPLIT is 1 and T4CE = 0, Timer 4 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR4H and TMR4L). Both 8-bit
timers operate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 25.13. TMR4RLL holds the reload value for
TMR4L; TMR4RLH holds the reload value for TMR4H. The TR4 bit in TMR4CN handles the run control for
TMR4H. TMR4L is always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock
source divided by 8. The Timer 4 Clock Select bits (T4MH and T4ML in CKCON1) select either SYSCLK or
the clock defined by the Timer 4 External Clock Select bit (T4XCLK in TMR4CN), as follows:

The TF4H bit is set when TMR4H overflows from 0xFF to 0x00; the TF4L bit is set when TMR4L overflows
from 0xFF to 0x00. When Timer 4 interrupts are enabled, an interrupt is generated each time TMR4H overflows. If Timer 4 interrupts are enabled and TF4LEN (TMR4CN.5) is set, an interrupt is generated each
time either TMR4L or TMR4H overflows. When TF4LEN is enabled, software must check the TF4H and
TF4L flags to determine the source of the Timer 4 interrupt. The TF4H and TF4L interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

25.5. Timer 5
Timer 5 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR5L (low byte) and TMR5H (high byte). Timer 5 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T5SPLIT bit (TMR5CN.3) defines
Timer 5 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator
source divided by 8. Note that the external oscillator source divided by 8 is synchronized with the system
clock.
25.5.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T5SPLIT (TMR5CN.3) is zero, Timer 5 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 5 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8. As the
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 5
reload registers (TMR5RLH and TMR5RLL) is loaded into the Timer 5 register as shown in Figure 25.14,
and the Timer 5 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR5CN.7) is set. If Timer 5 interrupts are enabled (if EIE1.7 is
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 5 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 5 interrupts are enabled
and the TF5LEN bit is set (TMR5CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR5L)
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

25.5.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T5SPLIT is 1 and T5CE = 0, Timer 5 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR5H and TMR5L). Both 8-bit

TMR5L; TMR5RLH holds the reload value for TMR5H. The TR5 bit in TMR5CN handles the run control for
TMR5H. TMR5L is always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock

26. Programmable Counter Array
The Programmable Counter Array (PCA0) provides enhanced timer functionality while requiring less CPU
intervention than the standard 8051 counter/timers. The PCA consists of a dedicated 16-bit counter/timer
and five 16-bit capture/compare modules. Each capture/compare module has its own associated I/O line
(CEXn) which is routed through the Crossbar to Port I/O when enabled. The counter/timer is driven by a
programmable timebase that can select between six sources: system clock, system clock divided by four,
system clock divided by twelve, the external oscillator clock source divided by 8, Timer 0 overflows, or an
external clock signal on the ECI input pin. Each capture/compare module may be configured to operate
independently in one of six modes: Edge-Triggered Capture, Software Timer, High-Speed Output, Frequency Output, 8-Bit PWM, or 16-Bit PWM (each mode is described in Section “26.3. Capture/Compare
Modules” on page 262). The external oscillator clock option is ideal for real-time clock (RTC) functionality,
allowing the PCA to be clocked by a precision external oscillator while the internal oscillator drives the system clock. The PCA is configured and controlled through the system controller's Special Function Registers. The PCA block diagram is shown in Figure 26.1
Important Note: The PCA Module 4 may be used as a watchdog timer (WDT), and is enabled in this mode
following a system reset. Access to certain PCA registers is restricted while WDT mode is enabled.
See Section 26.4 for details.

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

26.2. PCA0 Interrupt Sources
Figure 26.3 shows a diagram of the PCA interrupt tree. There are six independent event flags that can be
used to generate a PCA0 interrupt. They are: the main PCA counter overflow flag (CF), which is set upon
a 16-bit overflow of the PCA0 counter and the individual flags for each PCA channel (CCF0, CCF1, CCF2,
CCF3, and CCF4), which are set according to the operation mode of that module. These event flags are
always set when the trigger condition occurs. Each of these flags can be individually selected to generate
a PCA0 interrupt, using the corresponding interrupt enable flag (ECF for CF, and ECCFn for each CCFn).
PCA0 interrupts must be globally enabled before any individual interrupt sources are recognized by the
processor. PCA0 interrupts are globally enabled by setting the EA bit and the EPCA0 bit to logic 1.

26.3. Capture/Compare Modules
Each module can be configured to operate independently in one of six operation modes: edge-triggered
capture, software timer, high-speed output, frequency output, 8-bit pulse width modulator, or 16-bit pulse
width modulator. Each module has Special Function Registers (SFRs) associated with it in the CIP-51 system controller. These registers are used to exchange data with a module and configure the module's mode
of operation. Table 26.2 summarizes the bit settings in the PCA0CPMn register used to select the PCA
capture/compare module’s operating mode. Setting the ECCFn bit in a PCA0CPMn register enables the
module's CCFn interrupt.

26.3.1. Edge-triggered Capture Mode
In this mode, a valid transition on the CEXn pin causes the PCA to capture the value of the PCA
counter/timer and load it into the corresponding module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPLn and
PCA0CPHn). The CAPPn and CAPNn bits in the PCA0CPMn register are used to select the type of transition that triggers the capture: low-to-high transition (positive edge), high-to-low transition (negative edge),
or either transition (positive or negative edge). When a capture occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn)
in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is
enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by software. If both CAPPn and CAPNn bits are set to logic 1, then the
state of the Port pin associated with CEXn can be read directly to determine whether a rising-edge or falling-edge caused the capture.
Figure 26.4. PCA Capture Mode Diagram
Note: The CEXn input signal must remain high or low for at least 2 system clock cycles to be recognized by the
hardware.
Rev. 1.1

C8051F388/9/A/B
26.3.2. Software Timer (Compare) Mode
In Software Timer mode, the PCA counter/timer value is compared to the module's 16-bit capture/compare
register (PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in
PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is
enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by software. Setting the ECOMn and MATn bits in the PCA0CPMn register enables Software Timer mode.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

264
Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
26.3.3. High-Speed Output Mode
In High-Speed Output mode, a module’s associated CEXn pin is toggled each time a match occurs
between the PCA Counter and the module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPHn and
PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An
interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared
by software. Setting the TOGn, MATn, and ECOMn bits in the PCA0CPMn register enables the HighSpeed Output mode. If ECOMn is cleared, the associated pin will retain its state, and not toggle on the next
match event.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

26.3.4. Frequency Output Mode
Frequency Output Mode produces a programmable-frequency square wave on the module’s associated
CEXn pin. The capture/compare module high byte holds the number of PCA clocks to count before the output is toggled. The frequency of the square wave is then defined by Equation 26.1.
F PCA
F CEXn = ------------------------------------------2  PCA0CPHn
Note: A value of 0x00 in the PCA0CPHn register is equal to 256 for this equation.
Equation 26.1. Square Wave Frequency Output
Where FPCA is the frequency of the clock selected by the CPS2–0 bits in the PCA mode register,
PCA0MD. The lower byte of the capture/compare module is compared to the PCA counter low byte; on a
match, CEXn is toggled and the offset held in the high byte is added to the matched value in PCA0CPLn.
Frequency Output Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, TOGn, and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn register. Note that the MATn bit should normally be set to 0 in this mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn
flag for the channel will be set when the 16-bit PCA0 counter and the 16-bit capture/compare register for
the channel are equal.

Rev. 1.1
C8051F388/9/A/B
26.3.5. 8-bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal in 8-bit PWM mode is varied using the module's PCA0CPLn capture/compare register. When the value in the low byte of the PCA counter/timer (PCA0L) is equal to the
value in PCA0CPLn, the output on the CEXn pin will be set. When the count value in PCA0L overflows, the
CEXn output will be reset (see Figure 26.8). Also, when the counter/timer low byte (PCA0L) overflows from
0xFF to 0x00, PCA0CPLn is reloaded automatically with the value stored in the module’s capture/compare
high byte (PCA0CPHn) without software intervention. Setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the
PCA0CPMn register enables 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag
for the module will be set each time an 8-bit comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The duty cycle for 8Bit PWM Mode is given in Equation 26.2.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.
 256 – PCA0CPHn 
Duty Cycle = ------------------------------------------------------256
Equation 26.2. 8-Bit PWM Duty Cycle
Using Equation 26.2, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPHn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is
0.39% (PCA0CPHn = 0xFF). A 0% duty cycle may be generated by clearing the ECOMn bit to 0.

267
C8051F388/9/A/B
26.3.6. 16-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
A PCA module may also be operated in 16-Bit PWM mode. In this mode, the 16-bit capture/compare module defines the number of PCA clocks for the low time of the PWM signal. When the PCA counter matches
the module contents, the output on CEXn is asserted high; when the 16-bit counter overflows, CEXn is
asserted low. To output a varying duty cycle, new value writes should be synchronized with PCA CCFn
match interrupts. 16-Bit PWM Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, PWMn, and PWM16n bits in the
PCA0CPMn register. For a varying duty cycle, match interrupts should be enabled (ECCFn = 1 AND MATn
= 1) to help synchronize the capture/compare register writes. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for
the module will be set each time a 16-bit comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The CF flag in PCA0CN
can be used to detect the overflow (falling edge). The duty cycle for 16-Bit PWM Mode is given by
Equation 26.3.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.
 65536 – PCA0CPn 
Duty Cycle = --------------------------------------------------------65536
Equation 26.3. 16-Bit PWM Duty Cycle
Using Equation 26.3, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is
0.0015% (PCA0CPn = 0xFFFF). A 0% duty cycle may be generated by clearing the ECOMn bit to 0.

26.4. Watchdog Timer Mode
A programmable watchdog timer (WDT) function is available through the PCA Module 4. The WDT is used
to generate a reset if the time between writes to the WDT update register (PCA0CPH4) exceed a specified
limit. The WDT can be configured and enabled/disabled as needed by software.
With the WDTE bit set in the PCA0MD register, Module 4 operates as a watchdog timer (WDT). The Module 4 high byte is compared to the PCA counter high byte; the Module 4 low byte holds the offset to be
used when WDT updates are performed. The Watchdog Timer is enabled on reset. Writes to some
PCA registers are restricted while the Watchdog Timer is enabled. The WDT will generate a reset
shortly after code begins execution. To avoid this reset, the WDT should be explicitly disabled (and optionally re-configured and re-enabled if it is used in the system).
26.4.1. Watchdog Timer Operation
While the WDT is enabled:






PCA counter is forced on.
Writes to PCA0L and PCA0H are not allowed.
PCA clock source bits (CPS2–CPS0) are frozen.
PCA Idle control bit (CIDL) is frozen.
Module 4 is forced into software timer mode.
Writes to the Module 4 mode register (PCA0CPM4) are disabled.
While the WDT is enabled, writes to the CR bit will not change the PCA counter state; the counter will run
until the WDT is disabled. The PCA counter run control bit (CR) will read zero if the WDT is enabled but
user software has not enabled the PCA counter. If a match occurs between PCA0CPH4 and PCA0H while
the WDT is enabled, a reset will be generated. To prevent a WDT reset, the WDT may be updated with a
write of any value to PCA0CPH4. Upon a PCA0CPH4 write, PCA0H plus the offset held in PCA0CPL4 is
loaded into PCA0CPH4 (See Figure 26.10).
Figure 26.10. PCA Module 4 with Watchdog Timer Enabled
Rev. 1.1
269
C8051F388/9/A/B
The 8-bit offset held in PCA0CPH4 is compared to the upper byte of the 16-bit PCA counter. This offset
value is the number of PCA0L overflows before a reset. Up to 256 PCA clocks may pass before the first
PCA0L overflow occurs, depending on the value of the PCA0L when the update is performed. The total offset is then given (in PCA clocks) by Equation 26.4, where PCA0L is the value of the PCA0L register at the
time of the update.
Offset =  256  PCA0CPL4  +  256 – PCA0L 
Equation 26.4. Watchdog Timer Offset in PCA Clocks
The WDT reset is generated when PCA0L overflows while there is a match between PCA0CPH4 and
PCA0H. Software may force a WDT reset by writing a 1 to the CCF4 flag (PCA0CN.4) while the WDT is
enabled.
26.4.2. Watchdog Timer Usage
To configure the WDT, perform the following tasks:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Disable the WDT by writing a 0 to the WDTE bit.
Select the desired PCA clock source (with the CPS2–CPS0 bits).
Load PCA0CPL4 with the desired WDT update offset value.
Configure the PCA Idle mode (set CIDL if the WDT should be suspended while the CPU is in Idle
mode).
5. Enable the WDT by setting the WDTE bit to 1.
6. Reset the WDT timer by writing to PCA0CPH4.
The PCA clock source and Idle mode select cannot be changed while the WDT is enabled. The watchdog
timer is enabled by setting the WDTE or WDLCK bits in the PCA0MD register. When WDLCK is set, the
WDT cannot be disabled until the next system reset. If WDLCK is not set, the WDT is disabled by clearing
the WDTE bit.
The WDT is enabled following any reset. The PCA0 counter clock defaults to the system clock divided by
12, PCA0L defaults to 0x00, and PCA0CPL4 defaults to 0x00. Using Equation 26.4, this results in a WDT
timeout interval of 256 PCA clock cycles, or 3072 system clock cycles. Table 26.3 lists some example timeout intervals for typical system clocks.

27. C2 Interface
C8051F388/9/A/B devices include an on-chip Silicon Labs 2-Wire (C2) debug interface to allow Flash programming and in-system debugging with the production part installed in the end application. The C2 interface uses a clock signal (C2CK) and a bi-directional C2 data signal (C2D) to transfer information between
the device and a host system. See the C2 Interface Specification for details on the C2 protocol.
27.1. C2 Interface Registers
The following describes the C2 registers necessary to perform Flash programming through the C2 interface. All C2 registers are accessed through the C2 interface as described in the C2 Interface Specification.

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

28. Revision Specific Behavior
This chapter contains behavioral differences between the C8051F388/9/A/B hardware revisions and
behavior as stated in the data sheet.
28.1. Revision Identification
The Lot ID Code on the top side of the device package can be used for decoding device revision information. On C8051F388/9/A/B devices, the revision letter is the first letter of the Lot ID Code.
Figure 28.1, Figure 28.2, and Figure 28.3 show how to find the Lot ID Code on the top side of the device
package.

28.2. INT2 Pin Not Connected
Problem
The INT2 pin is non-functional on revision A C8051F388/9/A/B devices.
Impacts
The INT2 pin cannot be used to generate an interrupt.
Workaround
The /INT0 and /INT1 external interrupts are available on P0 and can still be used to generate an external pin
interrupt.
Resolution
This behavior has been corrected on revision B of this device.
