Revision Change Notice #1505051
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Description of Change:
Silicon Labs is pleased to announce hardware revision C of the C8051F36x devices and revision
1.1 of the corresponding datasheet for these products.
For customers using Revision B the change to Revision C eliminates an issue where the CPU causes
an execution failure for the “CPL C” (Complement Carry bit) instruction under a narrow set of
conditions involving an instruction order dependency.
The failure mode is as follows: if the Carry bit contains a 1 prior to the execution phase of the “CPL
C” opcode, the Carry bit will remain a 1 after the execution phase of the opcode has completed. If
the Carry bit contained a ‘0’ prior to the execution of the “CPL C” opcode, it will properly
transition to a 1 when the execution phase of the opcode has completed.
In the failure case, the CPL C opcode must be immediately preceded by a JB, JNB, or JBC opcode.
JB, JNB, and JBC are all conditional branch instructions (JB is “Jump if bit is set”, JNB is “Jump if
bit is not set”, and JBC is “Jump if bit is set and clear bit”). Because the branches are conditional,
they have both a “branch taken” condition as well as a “branch not taken” condition. Both “branch
taken” and “branch not taken” conditions may exhibit the error, as long as the CPL C opcode
executes immediately after the branch instruction has executed.
The opcode failure only exists in devices with a maximum clock frequency of 100 MHz. These
include the following part numbers:
C8051F360-GQ
C8051F361-GQ
C8051F362-GM
C8051F363-GQ
C8051F364-GQ
C8051F365-GM
The opcode dependency issue does not exist in devices that have a maximum clock rate of 50 MHz;
however, since these devices share the same die a revision to the die and subsequent part number
is required. These devices include the following part numbers:
C8051F366-GQ
C8051F367-GM
C8051F368-GQ
C8051F369-GM
Datasheet revision 1.1 updates the orderable part number to revision C along with other minor
edits.
After the effective date of this PCN, Silicon Labs reserves the right to deliver Revision C for
customers ordering revision B. Please refer to the product identification section.
Reason for Change:
C8051F36x Revision C release
C8051F36x Datasheet revision 1.1 release
Impact on Form, Fit, Function, Quality, Reliability:
There is no impact to form, fit, quality or reliability.
The following functions are impacted:
- The “CPL C” (Complement Carry bit) instruction operates as expected at specified operating
conditions
