2.2 Unimplemented Memory Locations
Executing code from an unimplemented location will cause an illegal address reset. In Figure 2-1,
unimplemented locations are shaded.
2.3 Reserved Memory Locations
Accessing a reserved location can have unpredictable effects on MCU operation. In Figure 2-1, register
locations are marked with the word Reserved or with the letter R.
2.4 Direct Page Registers
Figure 2-2 shows the memory mapped registers of the MC68HC908QB8. Registers with addresses
between $0000 and $00FF are considered direct page registers and all instructions including those with
direct page addressing modes can access them. Registers between $0100 and $FFFF require non-direct
page addressing modes. See Chapter 7 Central Processor Unit (CPU) for more information on
addressing modes.

2.5 Random-Access Memory (RAM)
This MCU includes static RAM. The locations in RAM below $0100 can be accessed using the more
efficient direct addressing mode, and any single bit in this area can be accessed with the bit manipulation
instructions (BCLR, BSET, BRCLR, and BRSET). Locating the most frequently accessed program
variables in this area of RAM is preferred.
The RAM retains data when the MCU is in low-power wait or stop mode. At power-on, the contents of
RAM are uninitialized. RAM data is unaffected by any reset provided that the supply voltage does not drop
below the minimum value for RAM retention.
For compatibility with older M68HC05 MCUs, the HC08 resets the stack pointer to $00FF. In the devices
that have RAM above $00FF, it is usually best to reinitialize the stack pointer to the top of the RAM so the
direct page RAM can be used for frequently accessed RAM variables and bit-addressable program
variables. Include the following 2-instruction sequence in your reset initialization routine (where RamLast
is equated to the highest address of the RAM).

FLASH Memory (FLASH)
2.6 FLASH Memory (FLASH)
The FLASH memory is intended primarily for program storage. In-circuit programming allows the
operating program to be loaded into the FLASH memory after final assembly of the application product.
It is possible to program the entire array through the single-wire monitor mode interface. Because no
special voltages are needed for FLASH erase and programming operations, in-application programming
is also possible through other software-controlled communication paths.
This subsection describes the operation of the embedded FLASH memory. The FLASH memory can be
read, programmed, and erased from the internal VDD supply. The program and erase operations are
enabled through the use of an internal charge pump.
The minimum size of FLASH memory that can be erased is 64 bytes; and the maximum size of FLASH
memory that can be programmed in a program cycle is 32 bytes (a row). Program and erase operations
are facilitated through control bits in the FLASH control register (FLCR). Details for these operations
appear later in this section.
NOTE
An erased bit reads as a 1 and a programmed bit reads as a 0. A security
feature prevents viewing of the FLASH contents.(1)

ERASE — Erase Control Bit
This read/write bit configures the memory for erase operation. ERASE is interlocked with the PGM bit
such that both bits cannot be equal to 1 or set to 1 at the same time.
1 = Erase operation selected
0 = Erase operation unselected
PGM — Program Control Bit
This read/write bit configures the memory for program operation. PGM is interlocked with the ERASE
bit such that both bits cannot be equal to 1 or set to 1 at the same time.
1 = Program operation selected
0 = Program operation unselected
2.6.2 FLASH Page Erase Operation
Use the following procedure to erase a page of FLASH memory. A page consists of 64 consecutive bytes
starting from addresses $XX00, $XX40, $XX80, or $XXC0. The 48-byte user interrupt vectors area also
forms a page. Any FLASH memory page can be erased alone.
1. Set the ERASE bit and clear the MASS bit in the FLASH control register.
2. Read the FLASH block protect register.
3. Write any data to any FLASH location within the address range of the block to be erased.
4. Wait for a time, tNVS.
5. Set the HVEN bit.
6. Wait for a time, tErase.
7. Clear the ERASE bit.
8. Wait for a time, tNVH.
9. Clear the HVEN bit.
10. After time, tRCV, the memory can be accessed in read mode again.
NOTE
The COP register at location $FFFF should not be written between steps
5-9, when the HVEN bit is set. Since this register is located at a valid
FLASH address, unpredictable behavior may occur if this location is written
while HVEN is set.
NOTE
Programming and erasing of FLASH locations cannot be performed by
code being executed from the FLASH memory. While these operations
must be performed in the order as shown, other unrelated operations may
occur between the steps.
CAUTION
A page erase of the vector page will erase the internal oscillator trim value
at $FFC0.

2.6.3 FLASH Mass Erase Operation
Use the following procedure to erase the entire FLASH memory to read as a 1:
1. Set both the ERASE bit and the MASS bit in the FLASH control register.
2. Read the FLASH block protect register.
3. Write any data to any FLASH address(1) within the FLASH memory address range.
4. Wait for a time, tNVS.
5. Set the HVEN bit.
6. Wait for a time, tMErase.
7. Clear the ERASE and MASS bits.
NOTE
Mass erase is disabled whenever any block is protected (FLBPR does not
equal $FF).
8. Wait for a time, tNVHL.
9. Clear the HVEN bit.
10. After time, tRCV, the memory can be accessed in read mode again.
NOTE
Programming and erasing of FLASH locations cannot be performed by
code being executed from the FLASH memory. While these operations
must be performed in the order as shown, other unrelated operations may
occur between the steps.
CAUTION
A mass erase will erase the internal oscillator trim value at $FFC0.
2.6.4 FLASH Program Operation
Programming of the FLASH memory is done on a row basis. A row consists of 32 consecutive bytes
starting from addresses $XX00, $XX20, $XX40, $XX60, $XX80, $XXA0, $XXC0, or $XXE0. Use the
following step-by-step procedure to program a row of FLASH memory
Figure 2-4 shows a flowchart of the programming algorithm.
NOTE
Do not program any byte in the FLASH more than once after a successful
erase operation. Reprogramming bits to a byte which is already
programmed is not allowed without first erasing the page in which the byte
resides or mass erasing the entire FLASH memory. Programming without
first erasing may disturb data stored in the FLASH.
1. Set the PGM bit. This configures the memory for program operation and enables the latching of
address and data for programming.
2. Read the FLASH block protect register.
3. Write any data to any FLASH location within the address range desired.
4. Wait for a time, tNVS.
5. Set the HVEN bit.
1. When in monitor mode, with security sequence failed (see 17.3.2 Security), write to the FLASH block protect register instead of any FLASH address.

while HVEN is set.
This program sequence is repeated throughout the memory until all data is programmed.
NOTE
Programming and erasing of FLASH locations cannot be performed by
code being executed from the FLASH memory. While these operations
must be performed in the order shown, other unrelated operations may
occur between the steps. Do not exceed tPROG maximum, see 18.17
Memory Characteristics.
2.6.5 FLASH Protection
Due to the ability of the on-board charge pump to erase and program the FLASH memory in the target
application, provision is made to protect blocks of memory from unintentional erase or program operations
due to system malfunction. This protection is done by use of a FLASH block protect register (FLBPR).
The FLBPR determines the range of the FLASH memory which is to be protected. The range of the
protected area starts from a location defined by FLBPR and ends to the bottom of the FLASH memory
($FFFF). When the memory is protected, the HVEN bit cannot be set in either ERASE or PROGRAM
operations.
NOTE
In performing a program or erase operation, the FLASH block protect
register must be read after setting the PGM or ERASE bit and before
asserting the HVEN bit.
When the FLBPR is programmed with all 0 s, the entire memory is protected from being programmed and
erased. When all the bits are erased (all 1’s), the entire memory is accessible for program and erase.
When bits within the FLBPR are programmed, they lock a block of memory. The address ranges are
shown in 2.6.6 FLASH Block Protect Register. Once the FLBPR is programmed with a value other than
$FF, any erase or program of the FLBPR or the protected block of FLASH memory is prohibited. Mass
erase is disabled whenever any block is protected (FLBPR does not equal $FF). The FLBPR itself can be
erased or programmed only with an external voltage, VTST, present on the IRQ pin. This voltage also
allows entry from reset into the monitor mode.
1. The time between each FLASH address change, or the time between the last FLASH address programmed to clearing
PGM bit, must not exceed the maximum programming time, tPROG maximum.

Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC10) Module
3.1 Introduction
This section describes the 10-bit successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC10).
The ADC10 module shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 3-1 for
port location of these shared pins. The ADC10 on this MCU uses VDD and VSS as its supply and reference
pins. This MCU uses BUSCLKX4 as its alternate clock source for the ADC. This MCU does not have a
hardware conversion trigger.
3.2 Features
Features of the ADC10 module include:
• Linear successive approximation algorithm with 10-bit resolution
• Output formatted in 10- or 8-bit right-justified format
• Single or continuous conversion (automatic power-down in single conversion mode)
• Configurable sample time and conversion speed (to save power)
• Conversion complete flag and interrupt
• Input clock selectable from up to three sources
• Operation in wait and stop modes for lower noise operation
• Selectable asynchronous hardware conversion trigger
3.3 Functional Description
The ADC10 uses successive approximation to convert the input sample taken from ADVIN to a digital
representation. The approximation is taken and then rounded to the nearest 10- or 8-bit value to provide
greater accuracy and to provide a more robust mechanism for achieving the ideal code-transition voltage.
Figure 3-2 shows a block diagram of the ADC10
For proper conversion, the voltage on ADVIN must fall between VREFH and VREFL. If ADVIN is equal to
or exceeds VREFH, the converter circuit converts the signal to $3FF for a 10-bit representation or $FF for
a 8-bit representation. If ADVIN is equal to or less than VREFL, the converter circuit converts it to $000.
Input voltages between VREFH and VREFL are straight-line linear conversions.
NOTE
Input voltage must not exceed the analog supply voltages.

Figure 3-2. ADC10 Block Diagram
The ADC10 can perform an analog-to-digital conversion on one of the software selectable channels. The
output of the input multiplexer (ADVIN) is converted by a successive approximation algorithm into a 10-bit
digital result. When the conversion is completed, the result is placed in the data registers (ADRH and
ADRL). In 8-bit mode, the result is rounded to 8 bits and placed in ADRL. The conversion complete flag
is then set and an interrupt is generated if the interrupt has been enabled.
3.3.1 Clock Select and Divide Circuit
The clock select and divide circuit selects one of three clock sources and divides it by a configurable value
to generate the input clock to the converter (ADCK). The clock can be selected from one of the following
sources:
• The asynchronous clock source (ACLK) — This clock source is generated from a dedicated clock
source which is enabled when the ADC10 is converting and the clock source is selected by setting
the ACLKEN bit. When the ADLPC bit is clear, this clock operates from 1–2 MHz; when ADLPC is
set it operates at 0.5–1 MHz. This clock is not disabled in STOP and allows conversions in stop
mode for lower noise operation.
• Alternate Clock Source — This clock source is equal to the external oscillator clock or a four times
the bus clock. The alternate clock source is MCU specific, see 3.1 Introduction to determine source
and availability of this clock source option. This clock is selected when ADICLK and ACLKEN are
both low.
• The bus clock — This clock source is equal to the bus frequency. This clock is selected when
ADICLK is high and ACLKEN is low.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
Freescale Semiconductor
39
Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC10) Module
Whichever clock is selected, its frequency must fall within the acceptable frequency range for ADCK. If
the available clocks are too slow, the ADC10 will not perform according to specifications. If the available
clocks are too fast, then the clock must be divided to the appropriate frequency. This divider is specified
by the ADIV[1:0] bits and can be divide-by 1, 2, 4, or 8.
3.3.2 Input Select and Pin Control
Only one analog input may be used for conversion at any given time. The channel select bits in ADCSC
are used to select the input signal for conversion.
3.3.3 Conversion Control
Conversions can be performed in either 10-bit mode or 8-bit mode as determined by the MODE bits.
Conversions can be initiated by either a software or hardware trigger. In addition, the ADC10 module can
be configured for low power operation, long sample time, and continuous conversion.
3.3.3.1 Initiating Conversions
A conversion is initiated:
• Following a write to ADCSC (with ADCH bits not all 1s) if software triggered operation is selected.
• Following a hardware trigger event if hardware triggered operation is selected.
• Following the transfer of the result to the data registers when continuous conversion is enabled.
If continuous conversions are enabled a new conversion is automatically initiated after the completion of
the current conversion. In software triggered operation, continuous conversions begin after ADCSC is
written and continue until aborted. In hardware triggered operation, continuous conversions begin after a
hardware trigger event and continue until aborted.
3.3.3.2 Completing Conversions
A conversion is completed when the result of the conversion is transferred into the data result registers,
ADRH and ADRL. This is indicated by the setting of the COCO bit. An interrupt is generated if AIEN is
high at the time that COCO is set.
A blocking mechanism prevents a new result from overwriting previous data in ADRH and ADRL if the
previous data is in the process of being read while in 10-bit mode (ADRH has been read but ADRL has
not). In this case the data transfer is blocked, COCO is not set, and the new result is lost. When a data
transfer is blocked, another conversion is initiated regardless of the state of ADCO (single or continuous
conversions enabled). If single conversions are enabled, this could result in several discarded
conversions and excess power consumption. To avoid this issue, the data registers must not be read after
initiating a single conversion until the conversion completes.
3.3.3.3 Aborting Conversions
Any conversion in progress will be aborted when:
• A write to ADCSC occurs (the current conversion will be aborted and a new conversion will be
initiated, if ADCH are not all 1s).
• A write to ADCLK occurs.
• The MCU is reset.
• The MCU enters stop mode with ACLK not enabled.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
40
Freescale Semiconductor
Functional Description
When a conversion is aborted, the contents of the data registers, ADRH and ADRL, are not altered but
continue to be the values transferred after the completion of the last successful conversion. In the case
that the conversion was aborted by a reset, ADRH and ADRL return to their reset states.
Upon reset or when a conversion is otherwise aborted, the ADC10 module will enter a low power, inactive
state. In this state, all internal clocks and references are disabled. This state is entered asynchronously
and immediately upon aborting of a conversion.
3.3.3.4 Total Conversion Time
The total conversion time depends on many factors such as sample time, bus frequency, whether
ACLKEN is set, and synchronization time. The total conversion time is summarized in Table 3-1.

The maximum total conversion time for a single conversion or the first conversion in continuous
conversion mode is determined by the clock source chosen and the divide ratio selected. The clock
source is selectable by the ADICLK and ACLKEN bits, and the divide ratio is specified by the ADIV bits.
For example, if the alternate clock source is 16 MHz and is selected as the input clock source, the input
clock divide-by-8 ratio is selected and the bus frequency is 4 MHz, then the conversion time for a single
10-bit conversion is:
Maximum Conversion time =
21 ADCK cycles
16 MHz/8
+
3 bus cycles
4 MHz
= 11.25 µs
Number of bus cycles = 11.25 µs x 4 MHz = 45 cycles
NOTE
The ADCK frequency must be between fADCK minimum and fADCK
maximum to meet A/D specifications.

Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC10) Module
3.3.4 Sources of Error
Several sources of error exist for ADC conversions. These are discussed in the following sections.
3.3.4.1 Sampling Error
For proper conversions, the input must be sampled long enough to achieve the proper accuracy. Given
the maximum input resistance of approximately 15 kΩ and input capacitance of approximately 10 pF,
sampling to within 1/4LSB (at 10-bit resolution) can be achieved within the minimum sample window
(3.5 cycles / 2 MHz maximum ADCK frequency) provided the resistance of the external analog source
(RAS) is kept below 10 kΩ. Higher source resistances or higher-accuracy sampling is possible by setting
ADLSMP (to increase the sample window to 23.5 cycles) or decreasing ADCK frequency to increase
sample time.
3.3.4.2 Pin Leakage Error
Leakage on the I/O pins can cause conversion error if the external analog source resistance (RAS) is high.
If this error cannot be tolerated by the application, keep RAS lower than VADVIN / (4096*ILeak) for less than
1/4LSB leakage error (at 10-bit resolution).
3.3.4.3 Noise-Induced Errors
System noise which occurs during the sample or conversion process can affect the accuracy of the
conversion. The ADC10 accuracy numbers are guaranteed as specified only if the following conditions
are met:
• There is a 0.1µF low-ESR capacitor from VREFH to VREFL (if available).
• There is a 0.1µF low-ESR capacitor from VDDA to VSSA (if available).
• If inductive isolation is used from the primary supply, an additional 1µF capacitor is placed from
VDDA to VSSA (if available).
• VSSA and VREFL (if available) is connected to VSS at a quiet point in the ground plane.
• The MCU is placed in wait mode immediately after initiating the conversion (next instruction after
write to ADCSC).
• There is no I/O switching, input or output, on the MCU during the conversion.
There are some situations where external system activity causes radiated or conducted noise emissions
or excessive VDD noise is coupled into the ADC10. In these cases, or when the MCU cannot be placed
in wait or I/O activity cannot be halted, the following recommendations may reduce the effect of noise on
the accuracy:
• Place a 0.01 µF capacitor on the selected input channel to VREFL or VSSA (if available). This will
improve noise issues but will affect sample rate based on the external analog source resistance.
• Operate the ADC10 in stop mode by setting ACLKEN, selecting the channel in ADCSC, and
executing a STOP instruction. This will reduce VDD noise but will increase effective conversion time
due to stop recovery.
• Average the input by converting the output many times in succession and dividing the sum of the
results. Four samples are required to eliminate the effect of a 1LSB, one-time error.
• Reduce the effect of synchronous noise by operating off the asynchronous clock (ACLKEN=1) and
averaging. Noise that is synchronous to the ADCK cannot be averaged out.

Functional Description
3.3.4.4 Code Width and Quantization Error
The ADC10 quantizes the ideal straight-line transfer function into 1024 steps (in 10-bit mode). Each step
ideally has the same height (1 code) and width. The width is defined as the delta between the transition
points from one code to the next. The ideal code width for an N bit converter (in this case N can be 8 or
10), defined as 1LSB, is:
1LSB = (VREFH–VREFL) / 2N
Because of this quantization, there is an inherent quantization error. Because the converter performs a
conversion and then rounds to 8 or 10 bits, the code will transition when the voltage is at the midpoint
between the points where the straight line transfer function is exactly represented by the actual transfer
function. Therefore, the quantization error will be ± 1/2LSB in 8- or 10-bit mode. As a consequence,
however, the code width of the first ($000) conversion is only 1/2LSB and the code width of the last ($FF
or $3FF) is 1.5LSB.
3.3.4.5 Linearity Errors
The ADC10 may also exhibit non-linearity of several forms. Every effort has been made to reduce these
errors but the user should be aware of them because they affect overall accuracy. These errors are:
• Zero-Scale Error (EZS) (sometimes called offset) — This error is defined as the difference between
the actual code width of the first conversion and the ideal code width (1/2LSB). Note, if the first
conversion is $001, then the difference between the actual $001 code width and its ideal (1LSB) is
used.
• Full-Scale Error (EFS) — This error is defined as the difference between the actual code width of
the last conversion and the ideal code width (1.5LSB). Note, if the last conversion is $3FE, then the
difference between the actual $3FE code width and its ideal (1LSB) is used.
• Differential Non-Linearity (DNL) — This error is defined as the worst-case difference between the
actual code width and the ideal code width for all conversions.
• Integral Non-Linearity (INL) — This error is defined as the highest-value the (absolute value of the)
running sum of DNL achieves. More simply, this is the worst-case difference of the actual transition
voltage to a given code and its corresponding ideal transition voltage, for all codes.
• Total Unadjusted Error (TUE) — This error is defined as the difference between the actual transfer
function and the ideal straight-line transfer function, and therefore includes all forms of error.
3.3.4.6 Code Jitter, Non-Monotonicity and Missing Codes
Analog-to-digital converters are susceptible to three special forms of error. These are code jitter,
non-monotonicity, and missing codes.
• Code jitter is when, at certain points, a given input voltage converts to one of two values when
sampled repeatedly. Ideally, when the input voltage is infinitesimally smaller than the transition
voltage, the converter yields the lower code (and vice-versa). However, even very small amounts
of system noise can cause the converter to be indeterminate (between two codes) for a range of
input voltages around the transition voltage. This range is normally around ±1/2LSB but will
increase with noise.
• Non-monotonicity is defined as when, except for code jitter, the converter converts to a lower code
for a higher input voltage.
• Missing codes are those which are never converted for any input value. In 8-bit or 10-bit mode, the
ADC10 is guaranteed to be monotonic and to have no missing codes.

Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC10) Module
3.4 Interrupts
When AIEN is set, the ADC10 is capable of generating a CPU interrupt after each conversion. A CPU
interrupt is generated when the conversion completes (indicated by COCO being set). COCO will set at
the end of a conversion regardless of the state of AIEN.
3.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
3.5.1 Wait Mode
The ADC10 will continue the conversion process and will generate an interrupt following a conversion if
AIEN is set. If the ADC10 is not required to bring the MCU out of wait mode, ensure that the ADC10 is not
in continuous conversion mode by clearing ADCO in the ADC10 status and control register before
executing the WAIT instruction. In single conversion mode the ADC10 automatically enters a low-power
state when the conversion is complete. It is not necessary to set the channel select bits (ADCH[4:0]) to
all 1s to enter a low power state.
3.5.2 Stop Mode
If ACLKEN is clear, executing a STOP instruction will abort the current conversion and place the ADC10
in a low-power state. Upon return from stop mode, a write to ADCSC is required to resume conversions,
and the result stored in ADRH and ADRL will represent the last completed conversion until the new
conversion completes.
If ACLKEN is set, the ADC10 continues normal operation during stop mode. The ADC10 will continue the
conversion process and will generate an interrupt following a conversion if AIEN is set. If the ADC10 is
not required to bring the MCU out of stop mode, ensure that the ADC10 is not in continuous conversion
mode by clearing ADCO in the ADC10 status and control register before executing the STOP instruction.
In single conversion mode the ADC10 automatically enters a low-power state when the conversion is
complete. It is not necessary to set the channel select bits (ADCH[4:0]) to all 1s to enter a low-power state.
If ACLKEN is set, a conversion can be initiated while in stop using the external hardware trigger
ADEXTCO when in external convert mode. The ADC10 will operate in a low-power mode until the trigger
is asserted, at which point it will perform a conversion and assert the interrupt when complete (if AIEN is
set).
3.6 ADC10 During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. BCFE in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status bits during
the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
44
Freescale Semiconductor
I/O Signals
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.
3.7 I/O Signals
The ADC10 module shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 3-1 for
port location of these shared pins. The ADC10 on this MCU uses VDD and VSS as its supply and reference
pins. This MCU does not have an external trigger source.
3.7.1 ADC10 Analog Power Pin (VDDA)
The ADC10 analog portion uses VDDA as its power pin. In some packages, VDDA is connected internally
to VDD. If externally available, connect the VDDA pin to the same voltage potential as VDD. External filtering
may be necessary to ensure clean VDDA for good results.
NOTE
If externally available, route VDDA carefully for maximum noise immunity
and place bypass capacitors as near as possible to the package.
3.7.2 ADC10 Analog Ground Pin (VSSA)
The ADC10 analog portion uses VSSA as its ground pin. In some packages, VSSA is connected internally
to VSS. If externally available, connect the VSSA pin to the same voltage potential as VSS.
In cases where separate power supplies are used for analog and digital power, the ground connection
between these supplies should be at the VSSA pin. This should be the only ground connection between
these supplies if possible. The VSSA pin makes a good single point ground location.
3.7.3 ADC10 Voltage Reference High Pin (VREFH)
VREFH is the power supply for setting the high-reference voltage for the converter. In some packages,
VREFH is connected internally to VDDA. If externally available, VREFH may be connected to the same
potential as VDDA, or may be driven by an external source that is between the minimum VDDA spec and
the VDDA potential (VREFH must never exceed VDDA).
NOTE
Route VREFH carefully for maximum noise immunity and place bypass
capacitors as near as possible to the package.
AC current in the form of current spikes required to supply charge to the capacitor array at each
successive approximation step is drawn through the VREFH and VREFL loop. The best external component
to meet this current demand is a 0.1 µF capacitor with good high frequency characteristics. This capacitor
is connected between VREFH and VREFL and must be placed as close as possible to the package pins.
Resistance in the path is not recommended because the current will cause a voltage drop which could
result in conversion errors. Inductance in this path must be minimum (parasitic only).
3.7.4 ADC10 Voltage Reference Low Pin (VREFL)
VREFL is the power supply for setting the low-reference voltage for the converter. In some packages,
VREFL is connected internally to VSSA. If externally available, connect the VREFL pin to the same voltage
potential as VSSA. There will be a brief current associated with VREFL when the sampling capacitor is

Freescale Semiconductor
45
Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC10) Module
charging. If externally available, connect the VREFL pin to the same potential as VSSA at the single point
ground location.
3.7.5 ADC10 Channel Pins (ADn)
The ADC10 has multiple input channels. Empirical data shows that capacitors on the analog inputs
improve performance in the presence of noise or when the source impedance is high. 0.01 µF capacitors
with good high-frequency characteristics are sufficient. These capacitors are not necessary in all cases,
but when used they must be placed as close as possible to the package pins and be referenced to VSSA.
3.8 Registers
These registers control and monitor operation of the ADC10:
• ADC10 status and control register, ADCSC
• ADC10 data registers, ADRH and ADRL
• ADC10 clock register, ADCLK
3.8.1 ADC10 Status and Control Register
This section describes the function of the ADC10 status and control register (ADCSC). Writing ADCSC
aborts the current conversion and initiates a new conversion (if the ADCH[4:0] bits are equal to a value
other than all 1s).

COCO is a read-only bit which is set each time a conversion is completed. This bit is cleared whenever
the status and control register is written or whenever the data register (low) is read.
1 = Conversion completed
0 = Conversion not completed
AIEN — ADC10 Interrupt Enable Bit
When this bit is set, an interrupt is generated at the end of a conversion. The interrupt signal is cleared
when the data register is read or the status/control register is written.
1 = ADC10 interrupt enabled
0 = ADC10 interrupt disabled
ADCO — ADC10 Continuous Conversion Bit
When this bit is set, the ADC10 will begin to convert samples continuously (continuous conversion
mode) and update the result registers at the end of each conversion, provided the ADCH[4:0] bits do
not decode to all 1s. The ADC10 will continue to convert until the MCU enters reset, the MCU enters
stop mode (if ACLKEN is clear), ADCLK is written, or until ADCSC is written again. If stop is entered

Freescale Semiconductor
Registers
(with ACLKEN low), continuous conversions will cease and can be restarted only with a write to
ADCSC. Any write to ADCSC with ADCO set and the ADCH bits not all 1s will abort the current
conversion and begin continuous conversions.
If the bus frequency is less than the ADCK frequency, precise sample time for continuous conversions
cannot be guaranteed in short-sample mode (ADLSMP = 0). If the bus frequency is less than 1/11th
of the ADCK frequency, precise sample time for continuous conversions cannot be guaranteed in
long-sample mode (ADLSMP = 1).
When clear, the ADC10 will perform a single conversion (single conversion mode) each time ADCSC
is written (assuming the ADCH[4:0] bits do not decode all 1s).
1 = Continuous conversion following a write to ADCSC
0 = One conversion following a write to ADCSC
ADCH[4:0] — Channel Select Bits
The ADCH[4:0] bits form a 5-bit field that is used to select one of the input channels. The input
channels are detailed in Table 3-2. The successive approximation converter subsystem is turned off
when the channel select bits are all set to 1. This feature allows explicit disabling of the ADC10 and
isolation of the input channel from the I/O pad. Terminating continuous conversion mode this way will
prevent an additional, single conversion from being performed. It is not necessary to set the channel
select bits to all 1s to place the ADC10 in a low-power state, however, because the module is
automatically placed in a low-power state when a conversion completes.

3.8.2 ADC10 Result High Register (ADRH)
This register holds the MSBs of the result and is updated each time a conversion completes. All other bits
read as 0s. Reading ADRH prevents the ADC10 from transferring subsequent conversion results into the
result registers until ADRL is read. If ADRL is not read until the after next conversion is completed, then
the intermediate conversion result will be lost. In 8-bit mode, this register contains no interlocking with
ADRL.

Auto Wakeup Module (AWU)
4.3 Functional Description
The function of the auto wakeup logic is to generate periodic wakeup requests to bring the microcontroller
unit (MCU) out of stop mode. The wakeup requests are treated as regular keyboard interrupt requests,
with the difference that instead of a pin, the interrupt signal is generated by an internal logic.
Writing the AWUIE bit in the keyboard interrupt enable register enables or disables the auto wakeup
interrupt input (see Figure 4-1). A 1 applied to the AWUIREQ input with auto wakeup interrupt request
enabled, latches an auto wakeup interrupt request.
Auto wakeup latch, AWUL, can be read directly from the bit 6 position of port A data register (PTA). This
is a read-only bit which is occupying an empty bit position on PTA. No PTA associated registers, such as
PTA6 data direction or PTA6 pullup exist for this bit.
There exists two clock sources for the AWU. An internal RC oscillator (exclusive for the auto wakeup
feature, AWU oscillator) drives the wakeup request generator provided the OSCENINSTOP bit in the
CONFIG2 register Figure 4-1is cleared. If the application employs a crystal, for example, by setting the
OSCENINSTOP bit the BUSCLKX4 will drive the wakeup request generator to allow a more accurate
wakeup.
Entering stop mode will enable the auto wakeup generation logic.
Once the overflow count is reached in the generator counter, a wakeup request, AWUIREQ, is latched
and sent to the KBI logic. See Figure 4-1.
Wakeup interrupt requests will only be serviced if the associated interrupt enable bit, AWUIE, in KBIER
is set. The AWU shares the keyboard interrupt vector.
The overflow count can be selected from two options defined by the COPRS bit in CONFIG1. This bit was
“borrowed” from the computer operating properly (COP) using the fact that the COP feature is idle (no
MCU clock available) in stop mode.
The auto wakeup RC oscillator is highly dependent on operating voltage and temperature. This feature is
not recommended for use as a time-keeping function.
The wakeup request is latched to allow the interrupt source identification. The latched value, AWUL, can
be read directly from the bit 6 position of PTA data register. This is a read-only bit which is occupying an
empty bit position on PTA. No PTA associated registers, such as PTA6 data, PTA6 direction, and PTA6
pullup exist for this bit. The latch can be cleared by writing to the ACKK bit in the KBSCR register. Reset
also clears the latch. AWUIE bit in KBI interrupt enable register (see Figure 4-1) has no effect on AWUL
reading.
The AWU oscillator and counters are inactive in normal operating mode and become active only upon
entering stop mode.
4.4 Interrupts
The AWU can generate an interrupt requests:.
AWU Latch (AWUL) — The AWUL bit is set when the AWU counter overflows. The auto wakeup interrupt
mask bit, AWUIE, is used to enable or disable AWU interrupt requests.
The AWU shares its interrupt with the KBI vector.

Low-Power Modes
4.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
4.5.1 Wait Mode
The AWU module remains inactive in wait mode.
4.5.2 Stop Mode
When the AWU module is enabled (AWUIE = 1 in the keyboard interrupt enable register) it is activated
automatically upon entering stop mode. Clearing the IMASKK bit in the keyboard status and control
register enables keyboard interrupt requests to bring the MCU out of stop mode. The AWU counters start
from 0 each time stop mode is entered.
4.6 Registers
The AWU shares registers with the keyboard interrupt (KBI) module, the port A I/O module and
configuration register 2. The following I/O registers control and monitor operation of the AWU:
• Port A data register (PTA)
• Keyboard interrupt status and control register (KBSCR)
• Keyboard interrupt enable register (KBIER)
• Configuration register 1 (CONFIG1)
• Configuration register 2 (CONFIG2)
4.6.1 Port A I/O Register
The port A data register (PTA) contains a data latch for the state of the AWU interrupt request, in addition
to the data latches for port A.

Configuration Register (CONFIG)
5.1 Introduction
This section describes the configuration registers (CONFIG1 and CONFIG2). The configuration registers
enable or disable the following options:
• Stop mode recovery time (32 × BUSCLKX4 cycles or 4096 × BUSCLKX4 cycles)
• STOP instruction
• Computer operating properly module (COP)
• COP reset period (COPRS): 8176 × BUSCLKX4 or 262,128 × BUSCLKX4
• Low-voltage inhibit (LVI) enable and trip voltage selection
• Auto wakeup timeout period
• Allow clock source to remain enabled in STOP
• Enable IRQ pin
• Disable IRQ pin pullup device
• Enable RST pin
• Clock source selection for the enhanced serial communication interface (ESCI) module
5.2 Functional Description
The configuration registers are used in the initialization of various options. The configuration registers can
be written once after each reset. Most of the configuration register bits are cleared during reset. Since the
various options affect the operation of the microcontroller unit (MCU) it is recommended that this register
be written immediately after reset. The configuration registers are located at $001E and $001F, and may
be read at anytime.
NOTE
The CONFIG registers are one-time writable by the user after each reset.
Upon a reset, the CONFIG registers default to predetermined settings as
shown in Figure 5-1 and Figure 5-2.

LVITRIP — LVI Trip Point Selection Bit
LVITRIP selects the voltage operating mode of the LVI module. The voltage mode selected for the LVI
should match the operating VDD for the LVI’s voltage trip points for each of the modes.

0 = LVI operates for a 3-V protection
NOTE
The LVITRIP bit is cleared by a power-on reset (POR) only. Other resets
will leave this bit unaffected.
SSREC — Short Stop Recovery Bit
SSREC enables the CPU to exit stop mode with a delay of 32 BUSCLKX4 cycles instead of a 4096
BUSCLKX4 cycle delay.
1 = Stop mode recovery after 32 BUSCLKX4 cycles
0 = Stop mode recovery after 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles
NOTE
Exiting stop mode by an LVI reset will result in the long stop recovery.
When using the LVI during normal operation but disabling during stop mode, the LVI will have an
enable time of tEN. The system stabilization time for power-on reset and long stop recovery (both 4096
BUSCLKX4 cycles) gives a delay longer than the LVI enable time for these startup scenarios. There
is no period where the MCU is not protected from a low-power condition. However, when using the
short stop recovery configuration option, the 32 BUSCLKX4 delay must be greater than the LVI’s turn
on time to avoid a period in startup where the LVI is not protecting the MCU.

Computer Operating Properly (COP)
6.1 Introduction
The computer operating properly (COP) module contains a free-running counter that generates a reset if
allowed to overflow. The COP module helps software recover from runaway code. Prevent a COP reset
by clearing the COP counter periodically. The COP module can be disabled through the COPD bit in the
configuration 1 (CONFIG1) register.

Computer Operating Properly (COP)
The COP counter is a free-running 6-bit counter preceded by the 12-bit system integration module (SIM)
counter. If not cleared by software, the COP counter overflows and generates an asynchronous reset after
8176 or 262,128 BUSCLKX4 cycles; depending on the state of the COP rate select bit, COPRS, in
configuration register 1. With a 262,128 BUSCLKX4 cycle overflow option, the internal 12.8-MHz
oscillator gives a COP timeout period of 20.48 ms. Writing any value to location $FFFF before an overflow
occurs prevents a COP reset by clearing the COP counter and stages 12–5 of the SIM counter.
NOTE
Service the COP immediately after reset and before entering or after exiting
stop mode to guarantee the maximum time before the first COP counter
overflow.
A COP reset pulls the RST pin low (if the RSTEN bit is set in the CONFIG1 register) for 32 × BUSCLKX4
cycles and sets the COP bit in the reset status register (RSR). See 14.8.1 SIM Reset Status Register.
NOTE
Place COP clearing instructions in the main program and not in an interrupt
subroutine. Such an interrupt subroutine could keep the COP from
generating a reset even while the main program is not working properly.
6.3 I/O Signals
The following paragraphs describe the signals shown in Figure 6-1.
6.3.1 BUSCLKX4
BUSCLKX4 is the oscillator output signal. BUSCLKX4 frequency is equal to the internal oscillator
frequency, the crystal frequency, or the RC-oscillator frequency.
6.3.2 STOP Instruction
The STOP instruction clears the SIM counter.
6.3.3 COPCTL Write
Writing any value to the COP control register (COPCTL) (see Figure 6-2) clears the COP counter and
clears stages 12–5 of the SIM counter. Reading the COP control register returns the low byte of the reset
vector.
6.3.4 Power-On Reset
The power-on reset (POR) circuit in the SIM clears the SIM counter 4096 × BUSCLKX4 cycles after power
up.
6.3.5 Internal Reset
An internal reset clears the SIM counter and the COP counter.
6.3.6 COPD (COP Disable)
The COPD signal reflects the state of the COP disable bit (COPD) in the configuration register (CONFIG).
See Chapter 5 Configuration Register (CONFIG).

Freescale Semiconductor
Interrupts
6.3.7 COPRS (COP Rate Select)
The COPRS signal reflects the state of the COP rate select bit (COPRS) in the configuration register 1
(CONFIG1). See Chapter 5 Configuration Register (CONFIG).
6.4 Interrupts
The COP does not generate CPU interrupt requests.
6.5 Monitor Mode
The COP is disabled in monitor mode when VTST is present on the IRQ pin.
6.6 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
6.6.1 Wait Mode
The COP continues to operate during wait mode. To prevent a COP reset during wait mode, periodically
clear the COP counter.
6.6.2 Stop Mode
Stop mode turns off the BUSCLKX4 input to the COP and clears the SIM counter. Service the COP
immediately before entering or after exiting stop mode to ensure a full COP timeout period after entering
or exiting stop mode.
6.7 COP Module During Break Mode
The COP is disabled during a break interrupt with monitor mode when BDCOP bit is set in break auxiliary
register (BRKAR).
6.8 Register
The COP control register (COPCTL) is located at address $FFFF and overlaps the reset vector. Writing
any value to $FFFF clears the COP counter and starts a new timeout period. Reading location $FFFF
returns the low byte of the reset vector.

7.3.3 Stack Pointer
The stack pointer is a 16-bit register that contains the address of the next location on the stack. During a
reset, the stack pointer is preset to $00FF. The reset stack pointer (RSP) instruction sets the least
significant byte to $FF and does not affect the most significant byte. The stack pointer decrements as data
is pushed onto the stack and increments as data is pulled from the stack.
In the stack pointer 8-bit offset and 16-bit offset addressing modes, the stack pointer can function as an
index register to access data on the stack. The CPU uses the contents of the stack pointer to determine
the conditional address of the operand.

NOTE
The location of the stack is arbitrary and may be relocated anywhere in
random-access memory (RAM). Moving the SP out of page 0 ($0000 to
$00FF) frees direct address (page 0) space. For correct operation, the
stack pointer must point only to RAM locations.
7.3.4 Program Counter
The program counter is a 16-bit register that contains the address of the next instruction or operand to be
fetched.
Normally, the program counter automatically increments to the next sequential memory location every
time an instruction or operand is fetched. Jump, branch, and interrupt operations load the program
counter with an address other than that of the next sequential location.
During reset, the program counter is loaded with the reset vector address located at $FFFE and $FFFF.
The vector address is the address of the first instruction to be executed after exiting the reset state.

V — Overflow Flag
The CPU sets the overflow flag when a two's complement overflow occurs. The signed branch
instructions BGT, BGE, BLE, and BLT use the overflow flag.
1 = Overflow
0 = No overflow
H — Half-Carry Flag
The CPU sets the half-carry flag when a carry occurs between accumulator bits 3 and 4 during an
add-without-carry (ADD) or add-with-carry (ADC) operation. The half-carry flag is required for
binary-coded decimal (BCD) arithmetic operations. The DAA instruction uses the states of the H and
C flags to determine the appropriate correction factor.
1 = Carry between bits 3 and 4
0 = No carry between bits 3 and 4
I — Interrupt Mask
When the interrupt mask is set, all maskable CPU interrupts are disabled. CPU interrupts are enabled
when the interrupt mask is cleared. When a CPU interrupt occurs, the interrupt mask is set
automatically after the CPU registers are saved on the stack, but before the interrupt vector is fetched.
1 = Interrupts disabled
0 = Interrupts enabled
NOTE
To maintain M6805 Family compatibility, the upper byte of the index
register (H) is not stacked automatically. If the interrupt service routine
modifies H, then the user must stack and unstack H using the PSHH and
PULH instructions.
After the I bit is cleared, the highest-priority interrupt request is serviced first.
A return-from-interrupt (RTI) instruction pulls the CPU registers from the stack and restores the
interrupt mask from the stack. After any reset, the interrupt mask is set and can be cleared only by the
clear interrupt mask software instruction (CLI).
N — Negative Flag
The CPU sets the negative flag when an arithmetic operation, logic operation, or data manipulation
produces a negative result, setting bit 7 of the result.
1 = Negative result
0 = Non-negative result
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
68
Freescale Semiconductor
Arithmetic/Logic Unit (ALU)
Z — Zero Flag
The CPU sets the zero flag when an arithmetic operation, logic operation, or data manipulation
produces a result of $00.
1 = Zero result
0 = Non-zero result
C — Carry/Borrow Flag
The CPU sets the carry/borrow flag when an addition operation produces a carry out of bit 7 of the
accumulator or when a subtraction operation requires a borrow. Some instructions — such as bit test
and branch, shift, and rotate — also clear or set the carry/borrow flag.
1 = Carry out of bit 7
0 = No carry out of bit 7
7.4 Arithmetic/Logic Unit (ALU)
The ALU performs the arithmetic and logic operations defined by the instruction set.
Refer to the CPU08 Reference Manual (document order number CPU08RM/AD) for a description of the
instructions and addressing modes and more detail about the architecture of the CPU.
7.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
7.5.1 Wait Mode
The WAIT instruction:
• Clears the interrupt mask (I bit) in the condition code register, enabling interrupts. After exit from
wait mode by interrupt, the I bit remains clear. After exit by reset, the I bit is set.
• Disables the CPU clock
7.5.2 Stop Mode
The STOP instruction:
• Clears the interrupt mask (I bit) in the condition code register, enabling external interrupts. After
exit from stop mode by external interrupt, the I bit remains clear. After exit by reset, the I bit is set.
• Disables the CPU clock
After exiting stop mode, the CPU clock begins running after the oscillator stabilization delay.
7.6 CPU During Break Interrupts
If a break module is present on the MCU, the CPU starts a break interrupt by:
• Loading the instruction register with the SWI instruction
• Loading the program counter with $FFFC:$FFFD or with $FEFC:$FEFD in monitor mode
The break interrupt begins after completion of the CPU instruction in progress. If the break address
register match occurs on the last cycle of a CPU instruction, the break interrupt begins immediately.
A return-from-interrupt instruction (RTI) in the break routine ends the break interrupt and returns the MCU
to normal operation if the break interrupt has been deasserted.

External Interrupt (IRQ)
8.1 Introduction
The IRQ (external interrupt) module provides a maskable interrupt input.
IRQ functionality is enabled by setting configuration register 2 (CONFIG2) IRQEN bit accordingly. A zero
disables the IRQ function and IRQ will assume the other shared functionalities. A one enables the IRQ
function. See Chapter 5 Configuration Register (CONFIG) for more information on enabling the IRQ pin.
The IRQ pin shares its pin with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 8-1 for port
location of this shared pin.
8.2 Features
Features of the IRQ module include:
• A dedicated external interrupt pin IRQ
• IRQ interrupt control bits
• Programmable edge-only or edge and level interrupt sensitivity
• Automatic interrupt acknowledge
• Internal pullup device
8.3 Functional Description
A low level applied to the external interrupt request (IRQ) pin can latch a CPU interrupt request. Figure 8-2
shows the structure of the IRQ module.
Interrupt signals on the IRQ pin are latched into the IRQ latch. The IRQ latch remains set until one of the
following actions occurs:
• IRQ vector fetch. An IRQ vector fetch automatically generates an interrupt acknowledge signal that
clears the latch that caused the vector fetch.
• Software clear. Software can clear the IRQ latch by writing a 1 to the ACK bit in the interrupt status
and control register (INTSCR).
• Reset. A reset automatically clears the IRQ latch.
The external IRQ pin is falling edge sensitive out of reset and is software-configurable to be either falling
edge or falling edge and low level sensitive. The MODE bit in INTSCR controls the triggering sensitivity
of the IRQ pin.

When set, the IMASK bit in INTSCR masks the IRQ interrupt request. A latched interrupt request is not
presented to the interrupt priority logic unless IMASK is clear.
NOTE
The interrupt mask (I) in the condition code register (CCR) masks all
interrupt requests, including the IRQ interrupt request.
A falling edge on the IRQ pin can latch an interrupt request into the IRQ latch. An IRQ vector fetch,
software clear, or reset clears the IRQ latch.

8.3.1 MODE = 1
If the MODE bit is set, the IRQ pin is both falling edge sensitive and low level sensitive. With MODE set,
both of the following actions must occur to clear the IRQ interrupt request:
• Return of the IRQ pin to a high level. As long as the IRQ pin is low, the IRQ request remains active.
• IRQ vector fetch or software clear. An IRQ vector fetch generates an interrupt acknowledge signal
to clear the IRQ latch. Software generates the interrupt acknowledge signal by writing a 1 to ACK
in INTSCR. The ACK bit is useful in applications that poll the IRQ pin and require software to clear
the IRQ latch. Writing to ACK prior to leaving an interrupt service routine can also prevent spurious
interrupts due to noise. Setting ACK does not affect subsequent transitions on the IRQ pin. A falling
edge that occurs after writing to ACK latches another interrupt request. If the IRQ mask bit, IMASK,
is clear, the CPU loads the program counter with the IRQ vector address.
The IRQ vector fetch or software clear and the return of the IRQ pin to a high level may occur in any order.
The interrupt request remains pending as long as the IRQ pin is low. A reset will clear the IRQ latch and
the MODE control bit, thereby clearing the interrupt even if the pin stays low.
Use the BIH or BIL instruction to read the logic level on the IRQ pin.
8.3.2 MODE = 0
If the MODE bit is clear, the IRQ pin is falling edge sensitive only. With MODE clear, an IRQ vector fetch
or software clear immediately clears the IRQ latch.
The IRQF bit in INTSCR can be read to check for pending interrupts. The IRQF bit is not affected by
IMASK, which makes it useful in applications where polling is preferred.
NOTE
When using the level-sensitive interrupt trigger, avoid false IRQ interrupts
by masking interrupt requests in the interrupt routine.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1

External Interrupt (IRQ)
8.4 Interrupts
The following IRQ source can generate interrupt requests:
• Interrupt flag (IRQF) — The IRQF bit is set when the IRQ pin is asserted based on the IRQ mode..
The IRQ interrupt mask bit, IMASK, is used to enable or disable IRQ interrupt requests.
8.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
8.5.1 Wait Mode
The IRQ module remains active in wait mode. Clearing IMASK in INTSCR enables IRQ interrupt requests
to bring the MCU out of wait mode.
8.5.2 Stop Mode
The IRQ module remains active in stop mode. Clearing IMASK in INTSCR enables IRQ interrupt requests
to bring the MCU out of stop mode.
8.6 IRQ Module During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.
8.7 I/O Signals
The IRQ module does not share its pin with any module on this MCU.
8.7.1 IRQ Input Pins (IRQ)
The IRQ pin provides a maskable external interrupt source. The IRQ pin contains an internal pullup
device.

Keyboard Interrupt Module (KBI)
9.1 Introduction
The keyboard interrupt module (KBI) provides independently maskable external interrupts.
The KBI shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 9-1 for port location
of these shared pins.
9.2 Features
Features of the keyboard interrupt module include:
• Keyboard interrupt pins with separate keyboard interrupt enable bits and one keyboard interrupt
mask
• Programmable edge-only or edge and level interrupt sensitivity
• Edge sensitivity programmable for rising or falling edge
• Level sensitivity programmable for high or low level
• Pullup or pulldown device automatically enabled based on the polarity of edge or level detect
• Exit from low-power modes
9.3 Functional Description
The keyboard interrupt module controls the enabling/disabling of interrupt functions on the KBI pins.
These pins can be enabled/disabled independently of each other. See Figure 9-2.
9.3.1 Keyboard Operation
Writing to the KBIEx bits in the keyboard interrupt enable register (KBIER) independently enables or
disables each KBI pin. The polarity of the keyboard interrupt is controlled using the KBIPx bits in the
keyboard interrupt polarity register (KBIPR). Edge-only or edge and level sensitivity is controlled using the
MODEK bit in the keyboard status and control register (KBISCR).
Enabling a keyboard interrupt pin also enables its internal pullup or pulldown device based on the polarity
enabled. On falling edge or low level detection, a pullup device is configured. On rising edge or high level
detection, a pulldown device is configured.
The keyboard interrupt latch is set when one or more enabled keyboard interrupt inputs are asserted.
• If the keyboard interrupt sensitivity is edge-only, for KBIPx = 0, a falling (for KBIPx = 1, a rising)
edge on a keyboard interrupt input does not latch an interrupt request if another enabled keyboard
pin is already asserted. To prevent losing an interrupt request on one input because another input
remains asserted, software can disable the latter input while it is asserted.
• If the keyboard interrupt is edge and level sensitive, an interrupt request is present as long as any
enabled keyboard interrupt input is asserted.

If the MODEK bit is set, the keyboard interrupt inputs are both edge and level sensitive. The KBIPx bit will
determine whether a edge sensitive pin detects rising or falling edges and on level sensitive pins whether
the pin detects low or high levels. With MODEK set, both of the following actions must occur to clear a
keyboard interrupt request:
• Return of all enabled keyboard interrupt inputs to a deasserted level. As long as any enabled
keyboard interrupt pin is asserted, the keyboard interrupt remains active.

Vector fetch or software clear. A KBI vector fetch generates an interrupt acknowledge signal to
clear the KBI latch. Software generates the interrupt acknowledge signal by writing a 1 to ACKK in
KBSCR. The ACKK bit is useful in applications that poll the keyboard interrupt inputs and require
software to clear the KBI latch. Writing to ACKK prior to leaving an interrupt service routine can
also prevent spurious interrupts due to noise. Setting ACKK does not affect subsequent transitions
on the keyboard interrupt inputs. An edge detect that occurs after writing to ACKK latches another
interrupt request. If the keyboard interrupt mask bit, IMASKK, is clear, the CPU loads the program
counter with the KBI vector address.
The KBI vector fetch or software clear and the return of all enabled keyboard interrupt pins to a deasserted
level may occur in any order.
Reset clears the keyboard interrupt request and the MODEK bit, clearing the interrupt request even if a
keyboard interrupt input stays asserted.
9.3.1.2 MODEK = 0
If the MODEK bit is clear, the keyboard interrupt inputs are edge sensitive. The KBIPx bit will determine
whether an edge sensitive pin detects rising or falling edges. A KBI vector fetch or software clear
immediately clears the KBI latch.
The keyboard flag bit (KEYF) in KBSCR can be read to check for pending interrupts. The KEYF bit is not
affected by IMASKK, which makes it useful in applications where polling is preferred.
NOTE
Setting a keyboard interrupt enable bit (KBIEx) forces the corresponding
keyboard interrupt pin to be an input, overriding the data direction register.
However, the data direction register bit must be a 0 for software to read the
pin.

Keyboard Interrupt Module (KBI)
9.3.2 Keyboard Initialization
When a keyboard interrupt pin is enabled, it takes time for the internal pullup or pulldown device to pull
the pin to its deasserted level. Therefore a false interrupt can occur as soon as the pin is enabled.
To prevent a false interrupt on keyboard initialization:
1. Mask keyboard interrupts by setting IMASKK in KBSCR.
2. Enable the KBI polarity by setting the appropriate KBIPx bits in KBIPR.
3. Enable the KBI pins by setting the appropriate KBIEx bits in KBIER.
4. Write to ACKK in KBSCR to clear any false interrupts.
5. Clear IMASKK.
An interrupt signal on an edge sensitive pin can be acknowledged immediately after enabling the pin. An
interrupt signal on an edge and level sensitive pin must be acknowledged after a delay that depends on
the external load.
9.4 Interrupts
The following KBI source can generate interrupt requests:
• Keyboard flag (KEYF) — The KEYF bit is set when any enabled KBI pin is asserted based on the
KBI mode and pin polarity. The keyboard interrupt mask bit, IMASKK, is used to enable or disable
KBI interrupt requests.
9.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
9.5.1 Wait Mode
The KBI module remains active in wait mode. Clearing IMASKK in KBSCR enables keyboard interrupt
requests to bring the MCU out of wait mode.
9.5.2 Stop Mode
The KBI module remains active in stop mode. Clearing IMASKK in KBSCR enables keyboard interrupt
requests to bring the MCU out of stop mode.
9.6 KBI During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.

9.7 I/O Signals
The KBI module can share its pins with the general-purpose I/O pins. See Figure 9-1 for the port pins that
are shared.
9.7.1 KBI Input Pins (KBIx:KBI0)
Each KBI pin is independently programmable as an external interrupt source. KBI pin polarity can be
controlled independently. Each KBI pin when enabled will automatically configure the appropriate
pullup/pulldown device based on polarity.
9.8 Registers
The following registers control and monitor operation of the KBI module:
• KBSCR (keyboard interrupt status and control register)

Low-Voltage Inhibit (LVI)
10.1 Introduction
The low-voltage inhibit (LVI) module is provided as a system protection mechanism to prevent the MCU
from operating below a certain operating supply voltage level. The module has several configuration
options to allow functionality to be tailored to different system level demands.
The configuration registers (see Chapter 5 Configuration Register (CONFIG)) contain control bits for this
module.
10.2 Features
Features of the LVI module include:
• Programmable LVI reset
• Selectable LVI trip voltage
• Programmable stop mode operation
10.3 Functional Description
Figure 10-1 shows the structure of the LVI module. LVISTOP, LVIPWRD, LVITRIP, and LVIRSTD are
user selectable options found in the configuration register.

89
Low-Voltage Inhibit (LVI)
The LVI module contains a bandgap reference circuit and comparator. When the LVITRIP bit is cleared,
the default state at power-on reset, VTRIPF is configured for the lower VDD operating range. The actual
trip points are specified in 18.5 5-V DC Electrical Characteristics and 18.8 3-V DC Electrical
Characteristics.
Because the default LVI trip point after power-on reset is configured for low voltage operation, a system
requiring high voltage LVI operation must set the LVITRIP bit during system initialization. VDD must be
above the LVI trip rising voltage, VTRIPR, for the high voltage operating range or the MCU will immediately
go into LVI reset.
After an LVI reset occurs, the MCU remains in reset until VDD rises above VTRIPR. See Chapter 14 System
Integration Module (SIM) for the reset recovery sequence.
The output of the comparator controls the state of the LVIOUT flag in the LVI status register (LVISR) and
can be used for polling LVI operation when the LVI reset is disabled.
The LVI is enabled out of reset. The following bits located in the configuration register can alter the default
conditions.
• Setting the LVI power disable bit, LVIPWRD, disables the LVI.
• Setting the LVI reset disable bit, LVIRSTD, prevents the LVI module from generating a reset.
• Setting the LVI enable in stop mode bit, LVISTOP, enables the LVI to operate in stop mode.
• Setting the LVI trip point bit, LVITRIP, configures the trip point voltage (VTRIPF) for the higher VDD
operating range.
10.3.1 Polled LVI Operation
In applications that can operate at VDD levels below the VTRIPF level, software can monitor VDD by polling
the LVIOUT bit. In the configuration register, LVIPWRD must be cleared to enable the LVI module, and
LVIRSTD must be set to disable LVI resets.
10.3.2 Forced Reset Operation
In applications that require VDD to remain above the VTRIPF level, enabling LVI resets allows the LVI
module to reset the MCU when VDD falls below the VTRIPF level. In the configuration register, LVIPWRD
and LVIRSTD must be cleared to enable the LVI module and to enable LVI resets.
10.3.3 LVI Hysteresis
The LVI has hysteresis to maintain a stable operating condition. After the LVI has triggered (by having
VDD fall below VTRIPF), the MCU will remain in reset until VDD rises above the rising trip point voltage,
VTRIPR. This prevents a condition in which the MCU is continually entering and exiting reset if VDD is
approximately equal to VTRIPF. VTRIPR is greater than VTRIPF by the typical hysteresis voltage, VHYS.
10.3.4 LVI Trip Selection
LVITRIP in the configuration register selects the LVI protection range. The default setting out of reset is
for the low voltage range. Because LVITRIP is in a write-once configuration register, the protection range
cannot be changed after initialization.
NOTE
The MCU is guaranteed to operate at a minimum supply voltage. The trip
point (VTRIPF) may be lower than this. See the Electrical Characteristics
section for the actual trip point voltages.

10.4 LVI Interrupts
The LVI module does not generate interrupt requests.
10.5 Low-Power Modes
The STOP and WAIT instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
10.5.1 Wait Mode
If enabled, the LVI module remains active in wait mode. If enabled to generate resets, the LVI module can
generate a reset and bring the MCU out of wait mode.
10.5.2 Stop Mode
If the LVIPWRD bit in the configuration register is cleared and the LVISTOP bit in the configuration
register is set, the LVI module remains active. If enabled to generate resets, the LVI module can generate
a reset and bring the MCU out of stop mode.
10.6 Registers
The LVI status register (LVISR) contains a status bit that is useful when the LVI is enabled and LVI reset
is disabled.

Oscillator Module (OSC)
11.1 Introduction
The oscillator (OSC) module is used to provide a stable clock source for the MCU system and bus.
The OSC shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 11-1 for port
location of these shared pins. The OSC2EN bit is located in the port A pull enable register (PTAPUEN)
on this MCU. See Chapter 12 Input/Output Ports (PORTS) for information on PTAPUEN register.
11.2 Features
The bus clock frequency is one fourth of any of these clock source options:
1. Internal oscillator: An internally generated, fixed frequency clock, trimmable to ± 0.4%. There are
three choices for the internal oscillator,12.8 MHz, 8 MHz, or 4 MHz. The 4-MHz internal oscillator
is the default option out of reset.
2. External oscillator: An external clock that can be driven directly into OSC1.
3. External RC: A built-in oscillator module (RC oscillator) that requires an external R connection only.
The capacitor is internal to the chip.
4. External crystal: A built-in XTAL oscillator that requires an external crystal or ceramic-resonator.
There are three crystal frequency ranges supported, 8–32 MHz, 1–8 MHz, and 32–100 kHz.
11.3 Functional Description
The oscillator contains these major subsystems:
• Internal oscillator circuit
• Internal or external clock switch control
• External clock circuit
• External crystal circuit
• External RC clock circuit

Freescale Semiconductor
Functional Description
11.3.1 Internal Signal Definitions
The following signals and clocks are used in the functional description and figures of the OSC module.
11.3.1.1 Oscillator Enable Signal (SIMOSCEN)
The SIMOSCEN signal comes from the system integration module (SIM) and disables the XTAL oscillator
circuit, the RC oscillator, or the internal oscillator in stop mode. OSCENINSTOP in the configuration
register can be used to override this signal.
11.3.1.2 XTAL Oscillator Clock (XTALCLK)
XTALCLK is the XTAL oscillator output signal. It runs at the full speed of the crystal (fXCLK) and comes
directly from the crystal oscillator circuit. Figure 11-2 shows only the logical relation of XTALCLK to OSC1
and OSC2 and may not represent the actual circuitry. The duty cycle of XTALCLK is unknown and may
depend on the crystal and other external factors. The frequency of XTALCLK can be unstable at start up.
11.3.1.3 RC Oscillator Clock (RCCLK)
RCCLK is the RC oscillator output signal. Its frequency is directly proportional to the time constant of the
external R (REXT) and internal C. Figure 11-3 shows only the logical relation of RCCLK to OSC1 and may
not represent the actual circuitry.
11.3.1.4 Internal Oscillator Clock (INTCLK)
INTCLK is the internal oscillator output signal. INTCLK is software selectable to be nominally 12.8 MHz,
8.0 MHz, or 4.0 MHz. INTCLK can be digitally adjusted using the oscillator trimming feature of the
OSCTRIM register (see 11.3.2.1 Internal Oscillator Trimming).
11.3.1.5 Bus Clock Times 4 (BUSCLKX4)
BUSCLKX4 is the same frequency as the input clock (XTALCLK, RCCLK, or INTCLK). This signal is
driven to the SIM module and is used during recovery from reset and stop and is the clock source for the
COP module.
11.3.1.6 Bus Clock Times 2 (BUSCLKX2)
The frequency of this signal is equal to half of the BUSCLKX4. This signal is driven to the SIM for
generation of the bus clocks used by the CPU and other modules on the MCU. BUSCLKX2 will be divided
by two in the SIM. The internal bus frequency is one fourth of the XTALCLK, RCCLK, or INTCLK
frequency.
11.3.2 Internal Oscillator
The internal oscillator circuit is designed for use with no external components to provide a clock source
with a tolerance of less than ±25% untrimmed. An 8-bit register (OSCTRIM) allows the digital adjustment
to a tolerance of ACCINT. See the oscillator characteristics in the Electrical section of this data sheet.
The internal oscillator is capable of generating clocks of 12.8 MHz, 8.0 MHz, or 4.0 MHz (INTCLK)
resulting in a bus frequency (INTCLK divided by 4) of 3.2 MHz, 2.0 MHz, or 1.0 MHz respectively. The
bus clock is software selectable and defaults to the 1.0-MHz bus out of reset. Users can increase the bus
frequency based on the voltage range of their application.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
Freescale Semiconductor
95
Oscillator Module (OSC)
Figure 11-3 shows how BUSCLKX4 is derived from INTCLK and OSC2 can output BUSCLKX4 by setting
OSC2EN.
11.3.2.1 Internal Oscillator Trimming
OSCTRIM allows a clock period adjustment of +127 and –128 steps. Increasing the OSCTRIM value
increases the clock period, which decreases the clock frequency. Trimming allows the internal clock
frequency to be fine tuned to the target frequency.
All devices are factory programmed with a trim value that is stored in FLASH memory at location $FFC0.
This trim value is not automatically loaded into OSCTRIM register. User software must copy the trim value
from $FFC0 into OSCTRIM if needed. The factory trim value provides the accuracy required for
communication using force monitor mode. Trimming the device in the user application board will provide
the most accurate trim value. See Oscillator Characteristics in the Electrical Chapter of this data book for
additional information on factory trim.
11.3.2.2 Internal to External Clock Switching
When external clock source (external OSC, RC, or XTAL) is desired, the user must perform the following
steps:
1. For external crystal circuits only, configure OSCOPT[1:0] to external crystal. To help precharge an
external crystal oscillator, momentarily configure OSC2 as an output and drive it high for several
cycles. This can help the crystal circuit start more robustly.
2. Configure OSCOPT[1:0] and ECFS[1:0] according to 11.8.1 Oscillator Status and Control Register.
The oscillator module control logic will then enable OSC1 as an external clock input and, if the
external crystal option is selected, OSC2 will also be enabled as the clock output. If RC oscillator
option is selected, enabling the OSC2 output may change the bus frequency.
3. Create a software delay to provide the stabilization time required for the selected clock source
(crystal, resonator, RC). A good rule of thumb for crystal oscillators is to wait 4096 cycles of the
crystal frequency; i.e., for a 4-MHz crystal, wait approximately 1 ms.
4. After the stabilization delay has elapsed, set ECGON.
After ECGON set is detected, the OSC module checks for oscillator activity by waiting two external clock
rising edges. The OSC module then switches to the external clock. Logic provides a coherent transition.
The OSC module first sets ECGST and then stops the internal oscillator.
11.3.2.3 External to Internal Clock Switching
After following the procedures to switch to an external clock source, it is possible to go back to the internal
source. By clearing the OSCOPT[1:0] bits and clearing the ECGON bit, the external circuit will be
disengaged. The bus clock will be derived from the selected internal clock source based on the ICFS[1:0]
bits.
11.3.3 External Oscillator
The external oscillator option is designed for use when a clock signal is available in the application to
provide a clock source to the MCU. The OSC1 pin is enabled as an input by the oscillator module. The
clock signal is used directly to create BUSCLKX4 and also divided by two to create BUSCLKX2.
In this configuration, the OSC2 pin cannot output BUSCLKX4. The OSC2EN bit will be forced clear to
enable alternative functions on the pin.

Freescale Semiconductor
Functional Description
11.3.4 XTAL Oscillator
The XTAL oscillator circuit is designed for use with an external crystal or ceramic resonator to provide an
accurate clock source. In this configuration, the OSC2 pin is dedicated to the external crystal circuit. The
OSC2EN bit has no effect when this clock mode is selected.
In its typical configuration, the XTAL oscillator is connected in a Pierce oscillator configuration, as shown
in Figure 11-2. This figure shows only the logical representation of the internal components and may not
represent actual circuitry.
The oscillator configuration uses five components:
• Crystal, X1
• Fixed capacitor, C1
• Tuning capacitor, C2 (can also be a fixed capacitor)
• Feedback resistor, RB
• Series resistor, RS (optional)
NOTE
The series resistor (RS) is included in the diagram to follow strict Pierce
oscillator guidelines and may not be required for all ranges of operation,
especially with high frequency crystals. Refer to the oscillator
characteristics table in the Electricals section for more information.

11.3.5 RC Oscillator
The RC oscillator circuit is designed for use with an external resistor (REXT) to provide a clock source with
a tolerance within 25% of the expected frequency. See Figure 11-3.
The capacitor (C) for the RC oscillator is internal to the MCU. The REXT value must have a tolerance of
1% or less to minimize its effect on the frequency.
In this configuration, the OSC2 pin can be used as general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins or other
alternative pin function. The OSC2EN bit can be set to enable the OSC2 output function on the pin.
Enabling the OSC2 output can affect the external RC oscillator frequency, fRCCLK.

OSC During Break Interrupts
11.6 OSC During Break Interrupts
There are no status flags associated with the OSC module.
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.
11.7 I/O Signals
The OSC shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 11-1 for port
location of these shared pins.
11.7.1 Oscillator Input Pin (OSC1)
The OSC1 pin is an input to the crystal oscillator amplifier, an input to the RC oscillator circuit, or an input
from an external clock source.
When the OSC is configured for internal oscillator, the OSC1 pin can be used as a general-purpose
input/output (I/O) port pin or other alternative pin function.
11.7.2 Oscillator Output Pin (OSC2)
For the XTAL oscillator option, the OSC2 pin is the output of the crystal oscillator amplifier.
When the OSC is configured for internal oscillator, external clock, or RC, the OSC2 pin can be used as a
general-purpose I/O port pin or other alternative pin function. When the oscillator is configured for internal
or RC, the OSC2 pin can be used to output BUSCLKX4.

Oscillator Module (OSC)
11.8 Registers
The oscillator module contains two registers:
• Oscillator status and control register (OSCSC)
• Oscillator trim register (OSCTRIM)
11.8.1 Oscillator Status and Control Register
The oscillator status and control register (OSCSC) contains the bits for switching between internal and
external clock sources. If the application uses an external crystal, bits in this register are used to select
the crystal oscillator amplifier necessary for the desired crystal. While running off the internal clock source,
the user can use bits in this register to select the internal clock source frequency.

These read/write bits change the internal capacitance used by the internal oscillator. By measuring the

be fine tuned. Increasing (decreasing) this factor by one increases (decreases) the period by
approximately 0.2% of the untrimmed oscillator period. The oscillator period is based on the oscillator
frequency selected by the ICFS bits in OSCSC.

Input/Output Ports (PORTS)
12.1 Introduction
The MC68HC908QB8, MC68HC908QB4 and MC68HC908QY8 have thirteen bidirectional pins and one
input only pin.
NOTE
Connect any unused I/O pins to an appropriate logic level, either VDD or VSS.
Although the I/O ports do not require termination for proper operation,
termination reduces excess current consumption and the possibility of
electrostatic damage.
12.2 Port A
Port A is an 6-bit special function port that shares its pins with the keyboard interrupt (KBI) module
(see Chapter 9 Keyboard Interrupt Module (KBI), the 4-channel timer interface module (TIM) (see Chapter
16 Timer Interface Module (TIM)), the 10-bit ADC (see Chapter 3 Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC10)
Module), the external interrupt (IRQ) pin (see Chapter 8 External Interrupt (IRQ)), the reset (RST) pin
enabled using a configuration register (see Chapter 5 Configuration Register (CONFIG)) and the
oscillator pins (see Chapter 11 Oscillator Module (OSC)).
Each port A pin also has a software configurable pullup device if the corresponding port pin is configured
as an input port.
NOTE
PTA2 is input only.
When the IRQ function is enabled in the configuration register 2
(CONFIG2), bit 2 of the port A data register (PTA) will always read a logic 0.
In this case, the BIH and BIL instructions can be used to read the logic level
on the PTA2 pin. When the IRQ function is disabled, these instructions will
behave as if the PTA2 pin is a logic 1. However, reading bit 2 of PTA will
read the actual logic level on the pin.

AWUL — Auto Wakeup Latch Data Bit
This is a read-only bit which has the value of the auto wakeup interrupt request latch. The wakeup
request signal is generated internally (see Chapter 4 Auto Wakeup Module (AWU)). There is no PTA6
port nor any of the associated bits such as PTA6 data register, pullup enable or direction. .
12.2.2 Data Direction Register A
Data direction register A (DDRA) determines whether each port A pin is an input or an output. Writing a 1

MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1

Freescale Semiconductor
Functional Description
13.3.2.1 Character Length
The transmitter can accommodate either 8-bit or 9-bit data. The state of the M bit in ESCI control
register 1 (SCC1) determines character length. When transmitting 9-bit data, bit T8 in ESCI control
register 3 (SCC3) is the ninth bit (bit 8).
13.3.2.2 Character Transmission
During an ESCI transmission, the transmit shift register shifts a character out to the TxD pin. The ESCI
data register (SCDR) is the write-only buffer between the internal data bus and the transmit shift register.
To initiate an ESCI transmission:
1. Enable the ESCI by writing a 1 to the enable ESCI bit (ENSCI) in ESCI control register 1 (SCC1).
2. Enable the transmitter by writing a 1 to the transmitter enable bit (TE) in ESCI control register 2
(SCC2).
3. Clear the ESCI transmitter empty bit (SCTE) by first reading ESCI status register 1 (SCS1) and
then writing to the SCDR. For 9-bit data, also write the T8 bit in SCC3.
4. Repeat step 3 for each subsequent transmission.
At the start of a transmission, transmitter control logic automatically loads the transmit shift register with
a preamble of 1s. After the preamble shifts out, control logic transfers the SCDR data into the transmit
shift register. A 0 start bit automatically goes into the least significant bit (LSB) position of the transmit shift
register. A 1 stop bit goes into the most significant bit (MSB) position.
The ESCI transmitter empty bit, SCTE, in SCS1 becomes set when the SCDR transfers a byte to the
transmit shift register. The SCTE bit indicates that the SCDR can accept new data from the internal data
bus. If the ESCI transmit interrupt enable bit, SCTIE, in SCC2 is also set, the SCTE bit generates a
transmitter interrupt request.
When the transmit shift register is not transmitting a character, the TxD pin goes to the idle condition, high.
If at any time software clears the ENSCI bit in ESCI control register 1 (SCC1), the transmitter and receiver
relinquish control of the port pins.
13.3.2.3 Break Characters
Writing a 1 to the send break bit, SBK, in SCC2 loads the transmit shift register with a break character.
For TXINV = 0 (output not inverted), a transmitted break character contains all 0s and has no start, stop,
or parity bit. Break character length depends on the M bit in SCC1 and the LINR bits in SCBR. As long as
SBK is set, transmitter logic continuously loads break characters into the transmit shift register. After
software clears the SBK bit, the shift register finishes transmitting the last break character and then
transmits at least one 1. The automatic 1 at the end of a break character guarantees the recognition of
the start bit of the next character.
When LINR is cleared in SCBR, the ESCI recognizes a break character when a start bit is followed by
eight or nine 0 data bits and a 0 where the stop bit should be, resulting in a total of 10 or 11 consecutive 0
data bits. When LINR is set in SCBR, the ESCI recognizes a break character when a start bit is followed
by 9 or 10 0 data bits and a 0 where the stop bit should be, resulting in a total of 11 or 12 consecutive 0
data bits.

Receiving a break character has these effects on ESCI registers:
• Sets the framing error bit (FE) in SCS1
• Sets the ESCI receiver full bit (SCRF) in SCS1
• Clears the ESCI data register (SCDR)
• Clears the R8 bit in SCC3
• Sets the break flag bit (BKF) in SCS2
• May set the overrun (OR), noise flag (NF), parity error (PE), or reception in progress flag (RPF) bits
13.3.2.4 Idle Characters
For TXINV = 0 (output not inverted), a transmitted idle character contains all 1s and has no start, stop, or
parity bit. Idle character length depends on the M bit in SCC1. The preamble is a synchronizing idle
character that begins every transmission.
If the TE bit is cleared during a transmission, the TxD pin becomes idle after completion of the
transmission in progress. Clearing and then setting the TE bit during a transmission queues an idle
character to be sent after the character currently being transmitted.
13.3.2.5 Inversion of Transmitted Output
The transmit inversion bit (TXINV) in ESCI control register 1 (SCC1) reverses the polarity of transmitted
data. All transmitted values including idle, break, start, and stop bits, are inverted when TXINV is set. See
13.8.1 ESCI Control Register 1.
13.3.3 Receiver
Figure 13-5 shows the structure of the ESCI receiver.
13.3.3.1 Character Length
The receiver can accommodate either 8-bit or 9-bit data. The state of the M bit in ESCI control register 1
(SCC1) determines character length. When receiving 9-bit data, bit R8 in ESCI control register 3 (SCC3)
is the ninth bit (bit 8). When receiving 8-bit data, bit R8 is a copy of the eighth bit (bit 7).
13.3.3.2 Character Reception
During an ESCI reception, the receive shift register shifts characters in from the RxD pin. The ESCI data
register (SCDR) is the read-only buffer between the internal data bus and the receive shift register.
After a complete character shifts into the receive shift register, the data portion of the character transfers
to the SCDR. The ESCI receiver full bit, SCRF, in ESCI status register 1 (SCS1) becomes set, indicating
that the received byte can be read. If the ESCI receive interrupt enable bit, SCRIE, in SCC2 is also set,
the SCRF bit generates a receiver interrupt request.

13.3.3.3 Data Sampling
The receiver samples the RxD pin at the RT clock rate. The RT clock is an internal signal with a frequency
16 times the baud rate. To adjust for baud rate mismatch, the RT clock is resynchronized at these times
(see Figure 13-6):
• After every start bit
• After the receiver detects a data bit change from 1 to 0 (after the majority of data bit samples at
RT8, RT9, and RT10 returns a valid 1 and the majority of the next RT8, RT9, and RT10 samples
returns a valid 0)
To locate the start bit, data recovery logic does an asynchronous search for a 0 preceded by three 1s.
When the falling edge of a possible start bit occurs, the RT clock begins to count to 16.

13.3.3.4 Framing Errors
If the data recovery logic does not detect a 1 where the stop bit should be in an incoming character, it sets
the framing error bit, FE, in SCS1. A break character also sets the FE bit because a break character has
no stop bit. The FE bit is set at the same time that the SCRF bit is set.
13.3.3.5 Baud Rate Tolerance
A transmitting device may be operating at a baud rate below or above the receiver baud rate.
Accumulated bit time misalignment can cause one of the three stop bit data samples to fall outside the
actual stop bit. Then a noise error occurs. If more than one of the samples is outside the stop bit, a framing
error occurs. In most applications, the baud rate tolerance is much more than the degree of misalignment
that is likely to occur.
As the receiver samples an incoming character, it resynchronizes the RT clock on any valid falling edge
within the character. Resynchronization within characters corrects misalignments between transmitter bit
times and receiver bit times.

For an 8-bit character, data sampling of the stop bit takes the receiver 9 bit times × 16 RT cycles

13.3.3.6 Receiver Wakeup
So that the MCU can ignore transmissions intended only for other receivers in multiple-receiver systems,
the receiver can be put into a standby state. Setting the receiver wakeup bit, RWU, in SCC2 puts the
receiver into a standby state during which receiver interrupts are disabled.
Depending on the state of the WAKE bit in SCC1, either of two conditions on the RxD pin can bring the
receiver out of the standby state:
1. Address mark — An address mark is a 1 in the MSB position of a received character. When the
WAKE bit is set, an address mark wakes the receiver from the standby state by clearing the RWU
bit. The address mark also sets the ESCI receiver full bit, SCRF. Software can then compare the
character containing the address mark to the user-defined address of the receiver. If they are the
same, the receiver remains awake and processes the characters that follow. If they are not the
same, software can set the RWU bit and put the receiver back into the standby state.
2. Idle input line condition — When the WAKE bit is clear, an idle character on the RxD pin wakes the
receiver from the standby state by clearing the RWU bit. The idle character that wakes the receiver
does not set the receiver idle bit, IDLE, or the ESCI receiver full bit, SCRF. The idle line type bit,
ILTY, determines whether the receiver begins counting 1s as idle character bits after the start bit
or after the stop bit.
NOTE
With the WAKE bit clear, setting the RWU bit after the RxD pin has been
idle will cause the receiver to wake up.
13.4 Interrupts
The following sources can generate ESCI interrupt requests.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
Freescale Semiconductor
119
Enhanced Serial Communications Interface (ESCI) Module
13.4.1 Transmitter Interrupts
These conditions can generate interrupt requests from the ESCI transmitter:
• ESCI transmitter empty (SCTE) — The SCTE bit in SCS1 indicates that the SCDR has transferred
a character to the transmit shift register. SCTE can generate a transmitter interrupt request. Setting
the ESCI transmit interrupt enable bit, SCTIE, in SCC2 enables the SCTE bit to generate
transmitter interrupt requests.
• Transmission complete (TC) — The TC bit in SCS1 indicates that the transmit shift register and the
SCDR are empty and that no break or idle character has been generated. The transmission
complete interrupt enable bit, TCIE, in SCC2 enables the TC bit to generate transmitter interrupt
requests.
13.4.2 Receiver Interrupts
These sources can generate interrupt requests from the ESCI receiver:
• ESCI receiver full (SCRF) — The SCRF bit in SCS1 indicates that the receive shift register has
transferred a character to the SCDR. SCRF can generate a receiver interrupt request. Setting the
ESCI receive interrupt enable bit, SCRIE, in SCC2 enables the SCRF bit to generate receiver
interrupts.
• Idle input (IDLE) — The IDLE bit in SCS1 indicates that 10 or 11 consecutive 1s shifted in from the
RxD pin. The idle line interrupt enable bit, ILIE, in SCC2 enables the IDLE bit to generate interrupt
requests.
13.4.3 Error Interrupts
These receiver error flags in SCS1 can generate interrupt requests:
• Receiver overrun (OR) — The OR bit indicates that the receive shift register shifted in a new
character before the previous character was read from the SCDR. The previous character remains
in the SCDR, and the new character is lost. The overrun interrupt enable bit, ORIE, in SCC3
enables OR to generate ESCI error interrupt requests.
• Noise flag (NF) — The NF bit is set when the ESCI detects noise on incoming data or break
characters, including start, data, and stop bits. The noise error interrupt enable bit, NEIE, in SCC3
enables NF to generate ESCI error interrupt requests.
• Framing error (FE) — The FE bit in SCS1 is set when a 0 occurs where the receiver expects a stop
bit. The framing error interrupt enable bit, FEIE, in SCC3 enables FE to generate ESCI error
interrupt requests.
• Parity error (PE) — The PE bit in SCS1 is set when the ESCI detects a parity error in incoming
data. The parity error interrupt enable bit, PEIE, in SCC3 enables PE to generate ESCI error
interrupt requests.
13.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
13.5.1 Wait Mode
The ESCI module remains active in wait mode. Any enabled interrupt request from the ESCI module can
bring the MCU out of wait mode.
If ESCI module functions are not required during wait mode, reduce power consumption by disabling the
module before executing the WAIT instruction.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
120
Freescale Semiconductor
ESCI During Break Interrupts
13.5.2 Stop Mode
The ESCI module is inactive in stop mode. The STOP instruction does not affect ESCI register states.
ESCI module operation resumes after the MCU exits stop mode.
Because the internal clock is inactive during stop mode, entering stop mode during an ESCI transmission
or reception results in invalid data.
13.6 ESCI During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared.After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.
13.7 I/O Signals
The ESCI module can share its pins with the general-purpose I/O pins. See Figure 13-1 for the port pins
that are shared.
13.7.1 ESCI Transmit Data (TxD)
The TxD pin is the serial data output from the ESCI transmitter. When the ESCI is enabled, the TxD pin
becomes an output.
13.7.2 ESCI Receive Data (RxD)
The RxD pin is the serial data input to the ESCI receiver. When the ESCI is enabled, the RxD pin becomes
an input.
13.8 Registers
The following registers control and monitor operation of the ESCI:
• ESCI control register 1, SCC1
• ESCI control register 2, SCC2
• ESCI control register 3, SCC3
• ESCI status register 1, SCS1
• ESCI status register 2, SCS2
• ESCI data register, SCDR
• ESCI baud rate register, SCBR
• ESCI prescaler register, SCPSC
• ESCI arbiter control register, SCIACTL

This read/write bit determines which condition wakes up the ESCI: a 1 (address mark) in the MSB
position of a received character or an idle condition on the RxD pin.
1 = Address mark wakeup
0 = Idle line wakeup
ILTY — Idle Line Type Bit
This read/write bit determines when the ESCI starts counting 1s as idle character bits. The counting
begins either after the start bit or after the stop bit. If the count begins after the start bit, then a string
of 1s preceding the stop bit may cause false recognition of an idle character. Beginning the count after
the stop bit avoids false idle character recognition, but requires properly synchronized transmissions.
1 = Idle character bit count begins after stop bit
0 = Idle character bit count begins after start bit
PEN — Parity Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables the ESCI parity function (see Table 13-4). When enabled, the parity
function inserts a parity bit in the MSB position (see Table 13-2).
1 = Parity function enabled
0 = Parity function disabled
PTY — Parity Bit
This read/write bit determines whether the ESCI generates and checks for odd parity or even parity
(see Table 13-4).
1 = Odd parity
0 = Even parity
NOTE
Changing the PTY bit in the middle of a transmission or reception can
generate a parity error.

ILIE — Idle Line Interrupt Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables the IDLE bit to generate ESCI receiver interrupt requests.
1 = IDLE enabled to generate interrupt requests
0 = IDLE not enabled to generate interrupt requests
TE — Transmitter Enable Bit
Setting this read/write bit begins the transmission by sending a preamble of 10 or 11 1s from the
transmit shift register to the TxD pin. If software clears the TE bit, the transmitter completes any
transmission in progress before the TxD returns to the idle condition (high). Clearing and then setting
TE during a transmission queues an idle character to be sent after the character currently being
transmitted.
1 = Transmitter enabled
0 = Transmitter disabled
NOTE
Writing to the TE bit is not allowed when the enable ESCI bit (ENSCI) is
clear. ENSCI is in ESCI control register 1.
RE — Receiver Enable Bit
Setting this read/write bit enables the receiver. Clearing the RE bit disables the receiver but does not
affect receiver interrupt flag bits.

The WAKE bit in SCC1 determines whether an idle input or an address mark brings the receiver out
of the standby state and clears the RWU bit.
1 = Standby state
0 = Normal operation
SBK — Send Break Bit
Setting and then clearing this read/write bit transmits a break character followed by a 1. The 1 after the
break character guarantees recognition of a valid start bit. If SBK remains set, the transmitter
continuously transmits break characters with no 1s between them.
1 = Transmit break characters
0 = No break characters being transmitted
NOTE
Do not toggle the SBK bit immediately after setting the SCTE bit. Toggling
SBK before the preamble begins causes the ESCI to send a break
character instead of a preamble.

SCTE — ESCI Transmitter Empty Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the SCDR transfers a character to the transmit shift register.
SCTE can generate an ESCI transmitter interrupt request. When the SCTIE bit in SCC2 is set, SCTE
generates an ESCI transmitter interrupt request. In normal operation, clear the SCTE bit by reading
SCS1 with SCTE set and then writing to SCDR
1 = SCDR data transferred to transmit shift register
0 = SCDR data not transferred to transmit shift register

Registers
TC — Transmission Complete Bit
This read-only bit is set when the SCTE bit is set, and no data, preamble, or break character is being
transmitted. TC generates an ESCI transmitter interrupt request if the TCIE bit in SCC2 is also set. TC
is cleared automatically when data, preamble, or break is queued and ready to be sent. There may be
up to 1.5 transmitter clocks of latency between queueing data, preamble, and break and the
transmission actually starting.
1 = No transmission in progress
0 = Transmission in progress
SCRF — ESCI Receiver Full Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the data in the receive shift register transfers to the ESCI data
register. SCRF can generate an ESCI receiver interrupt request. When the SCRIE bit in SCC2 is set
the SCRF generates a interrupt request. In normal operation, clear the SCRF bit by reading SCS1 with
SCRF set and then reading the SCDR.
1 = Received data available in SCDR
0 = Data not available in SCDR
IDLE — Receiver Idle Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when 10 or 11 consecutive 1s appear on the receiver input. IDLE
generates an ESCI receiver interrupt request if the ILIE bit in SCC2 is also set. Clear the IDLE bit by
reading SCS1 with IDLE set and then reading the SCDR. After the receiver is enabled, it must receive
a valid character that sets the SCRF bit before an idle condition can set the IDLE bit. Also, after the
IDLE bit has been cleared, a valid character must again set the SCRF bit before an idle condition can
set the IDLE bit.
1 = Receiver input idle
0 = Receiver input active (or idle since the IDLE bit was cleared)
OR — Receiver Overrun Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when software fails to read the SCDR before the receive shift
register receives the next character. The OR bit generates an ESCI error interrupt request if the ORIE
bit in SCC3 is also set. The data in the shift register is lost, but the data already in the SCDR is not
affected. Clear the OR bit by reading SCS1 with OR set and then reading the SCDR.
1 = Receive shift register full and SCRF = 1
0 = No receiver overrun
Software latency may allow an overrun to occur between reads of SCS1 and SCDR in the flag-clearing
sequence. Figure 13-13 shows the normal flag-clearing sequence and an example of an overrun
caused by a delayed flag-clearing sequence. The delayed read of SCDR does not clear the OR bit
because OR was not set when SCS1 was read. Byte 2 caused the overrun and is lost. The next
flag-clearing sequence reads byte 3 in the SCDR instead of byte 2.
In applications that are subject to software latency or in which it is important to know which byte is lost
due to an overrun, the flag-clearing routine can check the OR bit in a second read of SCS1 after
reading the data register.
NF — Receiver Noise Flag Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the ESCI detects noise on the RxD pin. NF generates an NF
interrupt request if the NEIE bit in SCC3 is also set. Clear the NF bit by reading SCS1 and then reading
the SCDR.
1 = Noise detected
0 = No noise detected

interrupt request if the FEIE bit in SCC3 also is set. Clear the FE bit by reading SCS1 with FE set and
then reading the SCDR.
1 = Framing error detected
0 = No framing error detected
PE — Receiver Parity Error Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the ESCI detects a parity error in incoming data. PE generates
a PE interrupt request if the PEIE bit in SCC3 is also set. Clear the PE bit by reading SCS1 with PE
set and then reading the SCDR.

BKF — Break Flag Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the ESCI detects a break character on the RxD pin. In SCS1,
the FE and SCRF bits are also set. In 9-bit character transmissions, the R8 bit in SCC3 is cleared. BKF
does not generate a interrupt request. Clear BKF by reading SCS2 with BKF set and then reading the
SCDR. Once cleared, BKF can become set again only after 1s again appear on the RxD pin followed
by another break character.
1 = Break character detected
0 = No break character detected
RPF — Reception in Progress Flag Bit
This read-only bit is set when the receiver detects a 0 during the RT1 time period of the start bit search.
RPF does not generate an interrupt request. RPF is reset after the receiver detects false start bits
(usually from noise or a baud rate mismatch), or when the receiver detects an idle character. Polling
RPF before disabling the ESCI module or entering stop mode can show whether a reception is in
progress.
1 = Reception in progress

In LIN (version 1.2 and later) systems, the master node transmits a break character which will appear
as 11.05–14.95 dominant bits to the slave node. A data character of 0x00 sent from the master might
appear as 7.65–10.35 dominant bit times. This is due to the oscillator tolerance requirement that the
slave node must be within ±15% of the master node's oscillator. Because a slave node cannot know
if it is running faster or slower than the master node (prior to synchronization), the LINR bit allows the
slave node to differentiate between a 0x00 character of 10.35 bits and a break character of 11.05 bits.
The break symbol length must be verified in software in any case, but the LINR bit serves as a filter,
preventing false detections of break characters that are really 0x00 data characters.

ARD7–ARD0 — Arbiter Least Significant Counter Bits
These read-only bits are the eight LSBs of the 9-bit arbiter counter. Clear ARD7–ARD0 by writing any
value to SCIACTL. Writing 0s to AM1 and AM0 permanently resets the counter and keeps it in this idle
state.
13.9.3 Bit Time Measurement
Two bit time measurement modes, described here, are available according to the state of ACLK.
1. ACLK = 0 — The counter is clocked with one half of the bus clock. The counter is started when a
falling edge on the RxD pin is detected. The counter will be stopped on the next falling edge. ARUN
is set while the counter is running, AFIN is set on the second falling edge on RxD (for instance, the
counter is stopped). This mode is used to recover the received baud rate. See Figure 13-20.
2. ACLK = 1 — The counter is clocked with one half of the ESCI input clock generated by the ESCI
prescaler. The counter is started when a 0 is detected on RxD (see Figure 13-21). A 0 on RxD on
enabling the bit time measurement with ACLK = 1 leads to immediate start of the counter (see
Figure 13-22). The counter will be stopped on the next rising edge of RxD. This mode is used to
measure the length of a received break.

13.9.4 Arbitration Mode
If AM[1:0] is set to 10, the arbiter module operates in arbitration mode. On every rising edge of SCI_TxD
(output of the transmit shift register, see Figure 13-2), the counter is started. When the counter reaches
$38 (ACLK = 0) or $08 (ACLK = 1), RxD is statically sensed. If in this case, RxD is sensed low (for
example, another bus is driving the bus dominant) ALOST is set. As long as ALOST is set, the TxD pin is
forced to 1, resulting in a seized transmission.
If SCI_TxD senses 0 without having sensed a 0 before on RxD, the counter will be reset, arbitration
operation will be restarted after the next rising edge of SCI_TxD.

System Integration Module (SIM)
14.1 Introduction
This section describes the system integration module (SIM), which supports up to 24 external and/or
internal interrupts. Together with the central processor unit (CPU), the SIM controls all microcontroller unit
(MCU) activities. A block diagram of the SIM is shown in Figure 14-1. The SIM is a system state controller
that coordinates CPU and exception timing.
The SIM is responsible for:
• Bus clock generation and control for CPU and peripherals
– Stop/wait/reset/break entry and recovery
– Internal clock control
• Master reset control, including power-on reset (POR) and computer operating properly (COP)
timeout
• Interrupt control:
– Acknowledge timing
– Arbitration control timing
– Vector address generation
• CPU enable/disable timing

Reset and System Initialization
14.3.1 Bus Timing
In user mode, the internal bus frequency is the oscillator frequency (BUSCLKX4) divided by four.
14.3.2 Clock Start-Up from POR
When the power-on reset module generates a reset, the clocks to the CPU and peripherals are inactive
and held in an inactive phase until after the 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycle POR time out has completed. The
IBUS clocks start upon completion of the time out.
14.3.3 Clocks in Stop Mode and Wait Mode
Upon exit from stop mode by an interrupt or reset, the SIM allows BUSCLKX4 to clock the SIM counter.
The CPU and peripheral clocks do not become active until after the stop delay time out. This time out is
selectable as 4096 or 32 BUSCLKX4 cycles. See 14.7.2 Stop Mode.
In wait mode, the CPU clocks are inactive. The SIM also produces two sets of clocks for other modules.
Refer to the wait mode subsection of each module to see if the module is active or inactive in wait mode.
Some modules can be programmed to be active in wait mode.
14.4 Reset and System Initialization
The MCU has these reset sources:
• Power-on reset module (POR)
• External reset pin (RST)
• Computer operating properly module (COP)
• Low-voltage inhibit module (LVI)
• Illegal opcode
• Illegal address
All of these resets produce the vector $FFFE–FFFF ($FEFE–FEFF in monitor mode) and assert the
internal reset signal (IRST). IRST causes all registers to be returned to their default values and all
modules to be returned to their reset states.
An internal reset clears the SIM counter (see 14.5 SIM Counter), but an external reset does not. Each of
the resets sets a corresponding bit in the SIM reset status register (SRSR). See 14.8 SIM Registers.
14.4.1 External Pin Reset
The RST pin circuits include an internal pullup device. Pulling the asynchronous RST pin low halts all
processing. The PIN bit of the SIM reset status register (SRSR) is set as long as RST is held low for at
least the minimum tRL time. Figure 14-3 shows the relative timing. The RST pin function is only available
if the RSTEN bit is set in the CONFIG2 register.

14.4.2 Active Resets from Internal Sources
The RST pin is initially setup as a general-purpose input after a POR. Setting the RSTEN bit in the
CONFIG2 register enables the pin for the reset function. This section assumes the RSTEN bit is set when
describing activity on the RST pin.
NOTE
For POR and LVI resets, the SIM cycles through 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles.
The internal reset signal then follows the sequence from the falling edge of
RST shown in Figure 14-4.
The COP reset is asynchronous to the bus clock.
The active reset feature allows the part to issue a reset to peripherals and other chips within a system
built around the MCU.
All internal reset sources actively pull the RST pin low for 32 BUSCLKX4 cycles to allow resetting of
external peripherals. The internal reset signal IRST continues to be asserted for an additional 32 cycles
(see Figure 14-4). An internal reset can be caused by an illegal address, illegal opcode, COP time out,
LVI, or POR (see Figure 14-5).

Reset and System Initialization
14.4.2.1 Power-On Reset
When power is first applied to the MCU, the power-on reset module (POR) generates a pulse to indicate
that power on has occurred. The SIM counter counts out 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles. Sixty-four BUSCLKX4
cycles later, the CPU and memories are released from reset to allow the reset vector sequence to occur.
At power on, the following events occur:
• A POR pulse is generated.
• The internal reset signal is asserted.
• The SIM enables the oscillator to drive BUSCLKX4.
• Internal clocks to the CPU and modules are held inactive for 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles to allow
stabilization of the oscillator.
• The POR bit of the SIM reset status register (SRSR) is set.
See Figure 14-6.

14.4.2.2 Computer Operating Properly (COP) Reset
An input to the SIM is reserved for the COP reset signal. The overflow of the COP counter causes an
internal reset and sets the COP bit in the SIM reset status register (SRSR). The SIM actively pulls down
the RST pin for all internal reset sources.
To prevent a COP module time out, write any value to location $FFFF. Writing to location $FFFF clears
the COP counter and stages 12–5 of the SIM counter. The SIM counter output, which occurs at least
every (212 – 24) BUSCLKX4 cycles, drives the COP counter. The COP should be serviced as soon as
possible out of reset to guarantee the maximum amount of time before the first time out.
The COP module is disabled during a break interrupt with monitor mode when BDCOP bit is set in break
auxiliary register (BRKAR).
14.4.2.3 Illegal Opcode Reset
The SIM decodes signals from the CPU to detect illegal instructions. An illegal instruction sets the ILOP
bit in the SIM reset status register (SRSR) and causes a reset.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
Freescale Semiconductor
143
System Integration Module (SIM)
If the stop enable bit, STOP, in the mask option register is 0, the SIM treats the STOP instruction as an
illegal opcode and causes an illegal opcode reset. The SIM actively pulls down the RST pin for all internal
reset sources.
14.4.2.4 Illegal Address Reset
An opcode fetch from an unmapped address generates an illegal address reset. The SIM verifies that the
CPU is fetching an opcode prior to asserting the ILAD bit in the SIM reset status register (SRSR) and
resetting the MCU. A data fetch from an unmapped address does not generate a reset. The SIM actively
pulls down the RST pin for all internal reset sources. See Figure 2-1. Memory Map for memory ranges.
14.4.2.5 Low-Voltage Inhibit (LVI) Reset
The LVI asserts its output to the SIM when the VDD voltage falls to the LVI trip voltage VTRIPF. The LVI
bit in the SIM reset status register (SRSR) is set, and the external reset pin (RST) is held low while the
SIM counter counts out 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles after VDD rises above VTRIPR. Sixty-four BUSCLKX4
cycles later, the CPU and memories are released from reset to allow the reset vector sequence to occur.
The SIM actively pulls down the (RST) pin for all internal reset sources.
14.5 SIM Counter
The SIM counter is used by the power-on reset module (POR) and in stop mode recovery to allow the
oscillator time to stabilize before enabling the internal bus (IBUS) clocks. The SIM counter also serves as
a prescaler for the computer operating properly module (COP). The SIM counter uses 12 stages for
counting, followed by a 13th stage that triggers a reset of SIM counters and supplies the clock for the COP
module. The SIM counter is clocked by the falling edge of BUSCLKX4.
14.5.1 SIM Counter During Power-On Reset
The power-on reset module (POR) detects power applied to the MCU. At power-on, the POR circuit
asserts the signal PORRST. Once the SIM is initialized, it enables the oscillator to drive the bus clock
state machine.
14.5.2 SIM Counter During Stop Mode Recovery
The SIM counter also is used for stop mode recovery. The STOP instruction clears the SIM counter. After
an interrupt, break, or reset, the SIM senses the state of the short stop recovery bit, SSREC, in the
configuration register 1 (CONFIG1). If the SSREC bit is a 1, then the stop recovery is reduced from the
normal delay of 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles down to 32 BUSCLKX4 cycles. This is ideal for applications
using canned oscillators that do not require long start-up times from stop mode. External crystal
applications should use the full stop recovery time, that is, with SSREC cleared in the configuration
register 1 (CONFIG1).
14.5.3 SIM Counter and Reset States
External reset has no effect on the SIM counter (see 14.7.2 Stop Mode for details.) The SIM counter is
free-running after all reset states. See 14.4.2 Active Resets from Internal Sources for counter control and
internal reset recovery sequences.

Exception Control
14.6 Exception Control
Normal sequential program execution can be changed in three different ways:
1. Interrupts
a. Maskable hardware CPU interrupts
b. Non-maskable software interrupt instruction (SWI)
2. Reset
3. Break interrupts
14.6.1 Interrupts
An interrupt temporarily changes the sequence of program execution to respond to a particular event.
Figure 14-7 flow charts the handling of system interrupts.
Interrupts are latched, and arbitration is performed in the SIM at the start of interrupt processing. The
arbitration result is a constant that the CPU uses to determine which vector to fetch. Once an interrupt is
latched by the SIM, no other interrupt can take precedence, regardless of priority, until the latched
interrupt is serviced (or the I bit is cleared).
At the beginning of an interrupt, the CPU saves the CPU register contents on the stack and sets the
interrupt mask (I bit) to prevent additional interrupts. At the end of an interrupt, the RTI instruction recovers
the CPU register contents from the stack so that normal processing can resume. Figure 14-8 shows
interrupt entry timing. Figure 14-9 shows interrupt recovery timing.
14.6.1.1 Hardware Interrupts
A hardware interrupt does not stop the current instruction. Processing of a hardware interrupt begins after
completion of the current instruction. When the current instruction is complete, the SIM checks all pending
hardware interrupts. If interrupts are not masked (I bit clear in the condition code register), and if the
corresponding interrupt enable bit is set, the SIM proceeds with interrupt processing; otherwise, the next
instruction is fetched and executed.
If more than one interrupt is pending at the end of an instruction execution, the highest priority interrupt is
serviced first. Figure 14-10 demonstrates what happens when two interrupts are pending. If an interrupt
is pending upon exit from the original interrupt service routine, the pending interrupt is serviced before the
LDA instruction is executed.
The LDA opcode is prefetched by both the INT1 and INT2 return-from-interrupt (RTI) instructions.
However, in the case of the INT1 RTI prefetch, this is a redundant operation.
NOTE
To maintain compatibility with the M6805 Family, the H register is not
pushed on the stack during interrupt entry. If the interrupt service routine
modifies the H register or uses the indexed addressing mode, software
should save the H register and then restore it prior to exiting the routine.

14.6.1.2 SWI Instruction
The SWI instruction is a non-maskable instruction that causes an interrupt regardless of the state of the
interrupt mask (I bit) in the condition code register.
NOTE
A software interrupt pushes PC onto the stack. A software interrupt does
not push PC – 1, as a hardware interrupt does.
14.6.2 Interrupt Status Registers
The flags in the interrupt status registers identify maskable interrupt sources. Table 14-3 summarizes the
interrupt sources and the interrupt status register flags that they set. The interrupt status registers can be

System Integration Module (SIM)
14.6.3 Reset
All reset sources always have equal and highest priority and cannot be arbitrated.
14.6.4 Break Interrupts
The break module can stop normal program flow at a software programmable break point by asserting its
break interrupt output. (See Chapter 17 Development Support.) The SIM puts the CPU into the break
state by forcing it to the SWI vector location. Refer to the break interrupt subsection of each module to
see how each module is affected by the break state.
14.6.5 Status Flag Protection in Break Mode
The SIM controls whether status flags contained in other modules can be cleared during break mode. The
user can select whether flags are protected from being cleared by properly initializing the break clear flag
enable bit (BCFE) in the break flag control register (BFCR).
Protecting flags in break mode ensures that set flags will not be cleared while in break mode. This
protection allows registers to be freely read and written during break mode without losing status flag
information.
Setting the BCFE bit enables the clearing mechanisms. Once cleared in break mode, a flag remains
cleared even when break mode is exited. Status flags with a two-step clearing mechanism — for example,
a read of one register followed by the read or write of another — are protected, even when the first step
is accomplished prior to entering break mode. Upon leaving break mode, execution of the second step
will clear the flag as normal.
14.7 Low-Power Modes
Executing the WAIT or STOP instruction puts the MCU in a low power- consumption mode for standby
situations. The SIM holds the CPU in a non-clocked state. The operation of each of these modes is
described below. Both STOP and WAIT clear the interrupt mask (I) in the condition code register, allowing
interrupts to occur.
14.7.1 Wait Mode
In wait mode, the CPU clocks are inactive while the peripheral clocks continue to run. Figure 14-14 shows
the timing for wait mode entry.

Low-Power Modes
In wait mode, the CPU clocks are inactive. Refer to the wait mode subsection of each module to see if the
module is active or inactive in wait mode. Some modules can be programmed to be active in wait mode.
Wait mode can also be exited by a reset (or break in emulation mode). A break interrupt during wait mode
sets the SIM break stop/wait bit, SBSW, in the break status register (BSR). If the COP disable bit, COPD,
in the configuration register is 0, then the computer operating properly module (COP) is enabled and
remains active in wait mode.

14.7.2 Stop Mode
In stop mode, the SIM counter is reset and the system clocks are disabled. An interrupt request from a
module can cause an exit from stop mode. Stacking for interrupts begins after the selected stop recovery
time has elapsed. Reset or break also causes an exit from stop mode.
The SIM disables the oscillator signals (BUSCLKX2 and BUSCLKX4) in stop mode, stopping the CPU
and peripherals. If OSCENINSTOP is set, BUSCLKX4 will remain running in STOP and can be used to
run the AWU. Stop recovery time is selectable using the SSREC bit in the configuration register 1
(CONFIG1). If SSREC is set, stop recovery is reduced from the normal delay of 4096 BUSCLKX4 cycles
down to 32. This is ideal for the internal oscillator, RC oscillator, and external oscillator options which do
not require long start-up times from stop mode.
NOTE
External crystal applications should use the full stop recovery time by
clearing the SSREC bit.

14.8 SIM Registers
The SIM has two memory mapped registers.
14.8.1 SIM Reset Status Register
The SRSR register contains flags that show the source of the last reset. The status register will
automatically clear after reading SRSR. A power-on reset sets the POR bit and clears all other bits in the
register. All other reset sources set the individual flag bits but do not clear the register. More than one
reset source can be flagged at any time depending on the conditions at the time of the internal or external
reset. For example, the POR and LVI bit can both be set if the power supply has a slow rise time.

15.1 Introduction
This section describes the serial peripheral interface (SPI) module, which allows full-duplex, synchronous,
serial communications with peripheral devices.
The SPI shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 15-1 for port location
of these shared pins.
15.2 Features
Features of the SPI module include:
• Full-duplex operation
• Master and slave modes
• Double-buffered operation with separate transmit and receive registers
• Four master mode frequencies (maximum = bus frequency ÷ 2)
• Maximum slave mode frequency = bus frequency
• Serial clock with programmable polarity and phase
• Two separately enabled interrupts:
– SPRF (SPI receiver full)
– SPTE (SPI transmitter empty)
• Mode fault error flag with interrupt capability
• Overflow error flag with interrupt capability
• Programmable wired-OR mode

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Module
15.3.1 Master Mode
The SPI operates in master mode when the SPI master bit, SPMSTR, is set.
NOTE
In a multi-SPI system, configure the SPI modules as master or slave before
enabling them. Enable the master SPI before enabling the slave SPI.
Disable the slave SPI before disabling the master SPI. See 15.8.1 SPI
Control Register.
Only a master SPI module can initiate transmissions. Software begins the transmission from a master SPI
module by writing to the transmit data register. If the shift register is empty, the byte immediately transfers
to the shift register, setting the SPI transmitter empty bit, SPTE. The byte begins shifting out on the MOSI
pin under the control of the serial clock. See Figure 15-3.

Figure 15-3. Full-Duplex Master-Slave Connections
The SPR1 and SPR0 bits control the baud rate generator and determine the speed of the shift register.
(See 15.8.2 SPI Status and Control Register.) Through the SPSCK pin, the baud rate generator of the
master also controls the shift register of the slave peripheral.
While the byte shifts out on the MOSI pin of the master, another byte shifts in from the slave on the
master’s MISO pin. The transmission ends when the receiver full bit, SPRF, becomes set. At the same
time that SPRF becomes set, the byte from the slave transfers to the receive data register. In normal
operation, SPRF signals the end of a transmission. Software clears SPRF by reading the SPI status and
control register (SPSCR) with SPRF set and then reading the SPI data register (SPDR). Writing to SPDR
clears SPTE.
15.3.2 Slave Mode
The SPI operates in slave mode when SPMSTR is clear. In slave mode, the SPSCK pin is the input for
the serial clock from the master MCU. Before a data transmission occurs, the SS pin of the slave SPI must
be low. SS must remain low until the transmission is complete. See 15.3.6.2 Mode Fault Error.
In a slave SPI module, data enters the shift register under the control of the serial clock from the master
SPI module. After a byte enters the shift register of a slave SPI, it transfers to the receive data register,
and the SPRF bit is set. To prevent an overflow condition, slave software then must read the receive data
register before another full byte enters the shift register.
The maximum frequency of the SPSCK for an SPI configured as a slave is the bus clock speed (which is
twice as fast as the fastest master SPSCK clock that can be generated). The frequency of the SPSCK for
an SPI configured as a slave does not have to correspond to any SPI baud rate. The baud rate only
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
158
Freescale Semiconductor
Functional Description
controls the speed of the SPSCK generated by an SPI configured as a master. Therefore, the frequency
of the SPSCK for an SPI configured as a slave can be any frequency less than or equal to the bus speed.
When the master SPI starts a transmission, the data in the slave shift register begins shifting out on the
MISO pin. The slave can load its shift register with a new byte for the next transmission by writing to its
transmit data register. The slave must write to its transmit data register at least one bus cycle before the
master starts the next transmission. Otherwise, the byte already in the slave shift register shifts out on the
MISO pin. Data written to the slave shift register during a transmission remains in a buffer until the end of
the transmission.
When the clock phase bit (CPHA) is set, the first edge of SPSCK starts a transmission. When CPHA is
clear, the falling edge of SS starts a transmission. See 15.3.3 Transmission Formats.
NOTE
SPSCK must be in the proper idle state before the slave is enabled to
prevent SPSCK from appearing as a clock edge.
15.3.3 Transmission Formats
During an SPI transmission, data is simultaneously transmitted (shifted out serially) and received (shifted
in serially). A serial clock synchronizes shifting and sampling on the two serial data lines. A slave select
line allows selection of an individual slave SPI device; slave devices that are not selected do not interfere
with SPI bus activities. On a master SPI device, the slave select line can optionally be used to indicate
multiple-master bus contention.
15.3.3.1 Clock Phase and Polarity Controls
Software can select any of four combinations of serial clock (SPSCK) phase and polarity using two bits
in the SPI control register (SPCR). The clock polarity is specified by the CPOL control bit, which selects
an active high or low clock and has no significant effect on the transmission format.
The clock phase (CPHA) control bit selects one of two fundamentally different transmission formats. The
clock phase and polarity should be identical for the master SPI device and the communicating slave
device. In some cases, the phase and polarity are changed between transmissions to allow a master
device to communicate with peripheral slaves having different requirements.
NOTE
Before writing to the CPOL bit or the CPHA bit, disable the SPI by clearing
the SPI enable bit (SPE).
15.3.3.2 Transmission Format When CPHA = 0
Figure 15-4 shows an SPI transmission in which CPHA = 0. The figure should not be used as a
replacement for data sheet parametric information.
When CPHA = 0 for a slave, the falling edge of SS indicates the beginning of the transmission. This
causes the SPI to leave its idle state and begin driving the MISO pin with the MSB of its data. After the
transmission begins, no new data is allowed into the shift register from the transmit data register.
Therefore, the SPI data register of the slave must be loaded with transmit data before the falling edge of
SS. Any data written after the falling edge is stored in the transmit data register and transferred to the shift
register after the current transmission.

Figure 15-4. Transmission Format (CPHA = 0)
Two waveforms are shown for SPSCK: one for CPOL = 0 and another for CPOL = 1. The diagram may
be interpreted as a master or slave timing diagram because the serial clock (SPSCK), master in/slave out
(MISO), and master out/slave in (MOSI) pins are directly connected between the master and the slave.
The MISO signal is the output from the slave, and the MOSI signal is the output from the master. The SS
line is the slave select input to the slave. The slave SPI drives its MISO output only when its slave select
input (SS) is low, so that only the selected slave drives to the master. The SS pin of the master is not
shown but is assumed to be inactive. The SS pin of the master must be high or must be reconfigured as
general-purpose I/O not affecting the SPI. (See 15.3.6.2 Mode Fault Error.) When CPHA = 0, the first
SPSCK edge is the MSB capture strobe. Therefore, the slave must begin driving its data before the first
SPSCK edge, and a falling edge on the SS pin is used to start the slave data transmission. The slave’s
SS pin must be toggled back to high and then low again between each byte transmitted as shown in
Figure 15-5.

Figure 15-6. Transmission Format (CPHA = 1)
When CPHA = 1 for a slave, the first edge of the SPSCK indicates the beginning of the transmission. This
causes the SPI to leave its idle state and begin driving the MISO pin with the MSB of its data. After the
transmission begins, no new data is allowed into the shift register from the transmit data register.
Therefore, the SPI data register of the slave must be loaded with transmit data before the first edge of
SPSCK. Any data written after the first edge is stored in the transmit data register and transferred to the
shift register after the current transmission.
15.3.3.4 Transmission Initiation Latency
When the SPI is configured as a master (SPMSTR = 1), writing to the SPDR starts a transmission. CPHA
has no effect on the delay to the start of the transmission, but it does affect the initial state of the SPSCK
signal. When CPHA = 0, the SPSCK signal remains inactive for the first half of the first SPSCK cycle.
When CPHA = 1, the first SPSCK cycle begins with an edge on the SPSCK line from its inactive to its
active level. The SPI clock rate (selected by SPR1:SPR0) affects the delay from the write to SPDR and
the start of the SPI transmission. (See Figure 15-7.) The internal SPI clock in the master is a free-running
derivative of the internal MCU clock. To conserve power, it is enabled only when both the SPE and
SPMSTR bits are set. Because the SPI clock is free-running, it is uncertain where the write to the SPDR
occurs relative to the slower SPSCK. This uncertainty causes the variation in the initiation delay shown
in Figure 15-7. This delay is no longer than a single SPI bit time. That is, the maximum delay is two MCU
bus cycles for DIV2, eight MCU bus cycles for DIV8, 32 MCU bus cycles for DIV32, and 128 MCU bus
cycles for DIV128.

15.3.4 Queuing Transmission Data
The double-buffered transmit data register allows a data byte to be queued and transmitted. For an SPI
configured as a master, a queued data byte is transmitted immediately after the previous transmission
has completed. The SPI transmitter empty flag (SPTE) indicates when the transmit data buffer is ready
to accept new data. Write to the transmit data register only when the SPTE bit is high. Figure 15-8
shows the timing associated with doing back-to-back transmissions with the SPI (SPSCK has

Figure 15-8. SPRF/SPTE interrupt Timing
The transmit data buffer allows back-to-back transmissions without the slave precisely timing its writes
between transmissions as in a system with a single data buffer. Also, if no new data is written to the data
buffer, the last value contained in the shift register is the next data word to be transmitted.
For an idle master or idle slave that has no data loaded into its transmit buffer, the SPTE is set again no
more than two bus cycles after the transmit buffer empties into the shift register. This allows the user to
queue up a 16-bit value to send. For an already active slave, the load of the shift register cannot occur
until the transmission is completed. This implies that a back-to-back write to the transmit data register is
not possible. SPTE indicates when the next write can occur.

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Module
15.3.5 Resetting the SPI
Any system reset completely resets the SPI. Partial resets occur whenever the SPI enable bit (SPE) is 0.
Whenever SPE is 0, the following occurs:
• The SPTE flag is set.
• Any transmission currently in progress is aborted.
• The shift register is cleared.
• The SPI state counter is cleared, making it ready for a new complete transmission.
• All the SPI pins revert back to being general-purpose I/O.
These items are reset only by a system reset:
• All control bits in the SPCR register
• All control bits in the SPSCR register (MODFEN, ERRIE, SPR1, and SPR0)
• The status flags SPRF, OVRF, and MODF
By not resetting the control bits when SPE is low, the user can clear SPE between transmissions without
having to set all control bits again when SPE is set high for the next transmission.
By not resetting the SPRF, OVRF, and MODF flags, the user can still service these interrupts after the
SPI has been disabled. The user can disable the SPI by writing 0 to the SPE bit. The SPI can also be
disabled by a mode fault occurring in an SPI that was configured as a master with the MODFEN bit set.
15.3.6 Error Conditions
The following flags signal SPI error conditions:
• Overflow (OVRF) — Failing to read the SPI data register before the next full byte enters the shift
register sets the OVRF bit. The new byte does not transfer to the receive data register, and the
unread byte still can be read. OVRF is in the SPI status and control register.
• Mode fault error (MODF) — The MODF bit indicates that the voltage on the slave select pin (SS)
is inconsistent with the mode of the SPI. MODF is in the SPI status and control register.
15.3.6.1 Overflow Error
The overflow flag (OVRF) becomes set if the receive data register still has unread data from a previous
transmission when the capture strobe of bit 1 of the next transmission occurs. The bit 1 capture strobe
occurs in the middle of SPSCK cycle 7 (see Figure 15-4 and Figure 15-6.) If an overflow occurs, all data
received after the overflow and before the OVRF bit is cleared does not transfer to the receive data
register and does not set the SPI receiver full bit (SPRF). The unread data that transferred to the receive
data register before the overflow occurred can still be read. Therefore, an overflow error always indicates
the loss of data. Clear the overflow flag by reading the SPI status and control register and then reading
the SPI data register.
OVRF generates a receiver/error interrupt request if the error interrupt enable bit (ERRIE) is also set. The
SPRF, MODF, and OVRF interrupts share the same interrupt vector (see Figure 15-11.) It is not possible
to enable MODF or OVRF individually to generate a receiver/error interrupt request. However, leaving
MODFEN low prevents MODF from being set.
If the SPRF interrupt is enabled and the OVRF interrupt is not, watch for an overflow condition.
Figure 15-9 shows how it is possible to miss an overflow. The first part of Figure 15-9 shows how it is
possible to read the SPSCR and SPDR to clear the SPRF without problems. However, as illustrated by
the second transmission example, the OVRF bit can be set in between the time that SPSCR and SPDR
are read.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
164
Freescale Semiconductor
Functional Description
In this case, an overflow can be missed easily. Because no more SPRF interrupts can be generated until
this OVRF is serviced, it is not obvious that bytes are being lost as more transmissions are completed. To
prevent this, either enable the OVRF interrupt or do another read of the SPSCR following the read of the
SPDR. This ensures that the OVRF was not set before the SPRF was cleared and that future
transmissions can set the SPRF bit. Figure 15-10 illustrates this process. Generally, to avoid this second
SPSCR read, enable OVRF by setting the ERRIE bit.

15.3.6.2 Mode Fault Error
Setting SPMSTR selects master mode and configures the SPSCK and MOSI pins as outputs and the
MISO pin as an input. Clearing SPMSTR selects slave mode and configures the SPSCK and MOSI pins
as inputs and the MISO pin as an output. The mode fault bit, MODF, becomes set any time the state of
the slave select pin, SS, is inconsistent with the mode selected by SPMSTR.
To prevent SPI pin contention and damage to the MCU, a mode fault error occurs if:
• The SS pin of a slave SPI goes high during a transmission
• The SS pin of a master SPI goes low at any time
For the MODF flag to be set, the mode fault error enable bit (MODFEN) must be set. Clearing the
MODFEN bit does not clear the MODF flag but does prevent MODF from being set again after MODF is
cleared.
MODF generates a receiver/error interrupt request if the error interrupt enable bit (ERRIE) is also set. The
SPRF, MODF, and OVRF interrupts share the same interrupt vector. (See Figure 15-11.) It is not possible
to enable MODF or OVRF individually to generate a receiver/error interrupt request. However, leaving
MODFEN low prevents MODF from being set.
In a master SPI with the mode fault enable bit (MODFEN) set, the mode fault flag (MODF) is set if SS
goes low. A mode fault in a master SPI causes the following events to occur:
• If ERRIE = 1, the SPI generates an SPI receiver/error interrupt request.
• The SPE bit is cleared.
• The SPTE bit is set.
• The SPI state counter is cleared.
• The data direction register of the shared I/O port regains control of port drivers.
NOTE
To prevent bus contention with another master SPI after a mode fault error,
clear all SPI bits of the data direction register of the shared I/O port before
enabling the SPI.
When configured as a slave (SPMSTR = 0), the MODF flag is set if SS goes high during a transmission.
When CPHA = 0, a transmission begins when SS goes low and ends after the incoming SPSCK goes to
its idle level following the shift of the eighth data bit. When CPHA = 1, the transmission begins when the
SPSCK leaves its idle level and SS is already low. The transmission continues until the SPSCK returns
to its idle level following the shift of the last data bit. See
15.3.3 Transmission Formats.
NOTE
Setting the MODF flag does not clear the SPMSTR bit. SPMSTR has no
function when SPE = 0. Reading SPMSTR when MODF = 1 shows the
difference between a MODF occurring when the SPI is a master and when
it is a slave.
When CPHA = 0, a MODF occurs if a slave is selected (SS is low) and later
unselected (SS is high) even if no SPSCK is sent to that slave. This
happens because SS low indicates the start of the transmission (MISO
driven out with the value of MSB) for CPHA = 0. When CPHA = 1, a slave
can be selected and then later unselected with no transmission occurring.
Therefore, MODF does not occur because a transmission was never
begun.

Interrupts
In a slave SPI (MSTR = 0), MODF generates an SPI receiver/error interrupt request if the ERRIE bit is
set. The MODF bit does not clear the SPE bit or reset the SPI in any way. Software can abort the SPI
transmission by clearing the SPE bit of the slave.
NOTE
A high on the SS pin of a slave SPI puts the MISO pin in a high impedance
state. Also, the slave SPI ignores all incoming SPSCK clocks, even if it was
already in the middle of a transmission.
To clear the MODF flag, read the SPSCR with the MODF bit set and then write to the SPCR register. This
entire clearing mechanism must occur with no MODF condition existing or else the flag is not cleared.
15.4 Interrupts
Four SPI status flags can be enabled to generate interrupt requests. See Table 15-1.

Reading the SPI status and control register with SPRF set and then reading the receive data register

register.
The SPI transmitter interrupt enable bit (SPTIE) enables the SPTE flag to generate transmitter interrupt
requests, provided that the SPI is enabled (SPE = 1).
The SPI receiver interrupt enable bit (SPRIE) enables SPRF to generate receiver interrupt requests,
regardless of the state of SPE. See Figure 15-11.

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Module
The error interrupt enable bit (ERRIE) enables both the MODF and OVRF bits to generate a receiver/error
interrupt request.
The mode fault enable bit (MODFEN) can prevent the MODF flag from being set so that only the OVRF
bit is enabled by the ERRIE bit to generate receiver/error interrupt requests.
The following sources in the SPI status and control register can generate interrupt requests:
• SPI receiver full bit (SPRF) — SPRF becomes set every time a byte transfers from the shift register
to the receive data register. If the SPI receiver interrupt enable bit, SPRIE, is also set, SPRF
generates an SPI receiver/error interrupt request.
• SPI transmitter empty bit (SPTE) — SPTE becomes set every time a byte transfers from the
transmit data register to the shift register. If the SPI transmit interrupt enable bit, SPTIE, is also set,
SPTE generates an SPTE interrupt request.
15.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
15.5.1 Wait Mode
The SPI module remains active after the execution of a WAIT instruction. In wait mode the SPI module
registers are not accessible by the CPU. Any enabled interrupt request from the SPI module can bring the
MCU out of wait mode.
If SPI module functions are not required during wait mode, reduce power consumption by disabling the
SPI module before executing the WAIT instruction.
To exit wait mode when an overflow condition occurs, enable the OVRF bit to generate interrupt requests
by setting the error interrupt enable bit (ERRIE). See 15.4 Interrupts.
15.5.2 Stop Mode
The SPI module is inactive after the execution of a STOP instruction. The STOP instruction does not
affect register conditions. SPI operation resumes after an external interrupt. If stop mode is exited by
reset, any transfer in progress is aborted, and the SPI is reset.
15.6 SPI During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.

I/O Signals
15.7 I/O Signals
The SPI module can share its pins with the general-purpose I/O pins. See Figure 15-1 for the port pins
that are shared.
The SPI module has four I/O pins:
• MISO — Master input/slave output
• MOSI — Master output/slave input
• SPSCK — Serial clock
• SS — Slave select
15.7.1 MISO (Master In/Slave Out)
MISO is one of the two SPI module pins that transmits serial data. In full duplex operation, the MISO pin
of the master SPI module is connected to the MISO pin of the slave SPI module. The master SPI
simultaneously receives data on its MISO pin and transmits data from its MOSI pin.
Slave output data on the MISO pin is enabled only when the SPI is configured as a slave. The SPI is
configured as a slave when its SPMSTR bit is 0 and its SS pin is low. To support a multiple-slave system,
a high on the SS pin puts the MISO pin in a high-impedance state.
When enabled, the SPI controls data direction of the MISO pin regardless of the state of the data direction
register of the shared I/O port.
15.7.2 MOSI (Master Out/Slave In)
MOSI is one of the two SPI module pins that transmits serial data. In full-duplex operation, the MOSI pin
of the master SPI module is connected to the MOSI pin of the slave SPI module. The master SPI
simultaneously transmits data from its MOSI pin and receives data on its MISO pin.
When enabled, the SPI controls data direction of the MOSI pin regardless of the state of the data direction
register of the shared I/O port.
15.7.3 SPSCK (Serial Clock)
The serial clock synchronizes data transmission between master and slave devices. In a master MCU,
the SPSCK pin is the clock output. In a slave MCU, the SPSCK pin is the clock input. In full-duplex
operation, the master and slave MCUs exchange a byte of data in eight serial clock cycles.
When enabled, the SPI controls data direction of the SPSCK pin regardless of the state of the data
direction register of the shared I/O port.
15.7.4 SS (Slave Select)
The SS pin has various functions depending on the current state of the SPI. For an SPI configured as a
slave, SS is used to select a slave. For CPHA = 0, the SS is used to define the start of a transmission.
(See 15.3.3 Transmission Formats.) Because it is used to indicate the start of a transmission, SS must
be toggled high and low between each byte transmitted for the CPHA = 0 format. However, it can remain
low between transmissions for the CPHA = 1 format. See Figure 15-12.

When an SPI is configured as a slave, the SS pin is always configured as an input. It cannot be used as
a general-purpose I/O regardless of the state of the MODFEN control bit. However, the MODFEN bit can
still prevent the state of SS from creating a MODF error. See 15.8.2 SPI Status and Control Register.
NOTE
A high on the SS pin of a slave SPI puts the MISO pin in a high-impedance
state. The slave SPI ignores all incoming SPSCK clocks, even if it was
already in the middle of a transmission.
When an SPI is configured as a master, the SS input can be used in conjunction with the MODF flag to
prevent multiple masters from driving MOSI and SPSCK. (See 15.3.6.2 Mode Fault Error.) For the state
of the SS pin to set the MODF flag, the MODFEN bit in the SPSCK register must be set. If the MODFEN
bit is 0 for an SPI master, the SS pin can be used as a general-purpose I/O under the control of the data
direction register of the shared I/O port. When MODFEN is 1, it is an input-only pin to the SPI regardless
of the state of the data direction register of the shared I/O port.
User software can read the state of the SS pin by configuring the appropriate pin as an input and reading
the port data register. See Table 15-2.

SPRIE — SPI Receiver Interrupt Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables interrupt requests generated by the SPRF bit. The SPRF bit is set when a
byte transfers from the shift register to the receive data register.
1 = SPRF interrupt requests enabled
0 = SPRF interrupt requests disabled
SPMSTR — SPI Master Bit
This read/write bit selects master mode operation or slave mode operation.
1 = Master mode
0 = Slave mode
CPOL — Clock Polarity Bit
This read/write bit determines the logic state of the SPSCK pin between transmissions. (See
Figure 15-4 and Figure 15-6.) To transmit data between SPI modules, the SPI modules must have
identical CPOL values.
CPHA — Clock Phase Bit
This read/write bit controls the timing relationship between the serial clock and SPI data. (See
Figure 15-4 and Figure 15-6.) To transmit data between SPI modules, the SPI modules must have
identical CPHA values. When CPHA = 0, the SS pin of the slave SPI module must be high between
bytes. (See Figure 15-12.)
SPWOM — SPI Wired-OR Mode Bit
This read/write bit configures pins SPSCK, MOSI, and MISO so that these pins become open-drain
outputs.
1 = Wired-OR SPSCK, MOSI, and MISO pins
0 = Normal push-pull SPSCK, MOSI, and MISO pins
SPE — SPI Enable
This read/write bit enables the SPI module. Clearing SPE causes a partial reset of the SPI. (See 15.3.5
Resetting the SPI.)

This read/write bit enables interrupt requests generated by the SPTE bit. SPTE is set when a byte

0 = SPTE interrupt requests disabled
15.8.2 SPI Status and Control Register
The SPI status and control register contains flags to signal these conditions:
• Receive data register full
• Failure to clear SPRF bit before next byte is received (overflow error)
• Inconsistent logic level on SS pin (mode fault error)
• Transmit data register empty
The SPI status and control register also contains bits that perform these functions:
• Enable error interrupts
• Enable mode fault error detection
• Select master SPI baud rate

This clearable, read-only flag is set each time a byte transfers from the shift register to the receive data
register. SPRF generates a interrupt request if the SPRIE bit in the SPI control register is set also.
During an SPRF interrupt, user software can clear SPRF by reading the SPI status and control register
with SPRF set followed by a read of the SPI data register.
1 = Receive data register full
0 = Receive data register not full
ERRIE — Error Interrupt Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables the MODF and OVRF bits to generate interrupt requests.
1 = MODF and OVRF can generate interrupt requests
0 = MODF and OVRF cannot generate interrupt requests
OVRF — Overflow Bit
This clearable, read-only flag is set if software does not read the byte in the receive data register before
the next full byte enters the shift register. In an overflow condition, the byte already in the receive data
register is unaffected, and the byte that shifted in last is lost. Clear the OVRF bit by reading the SPI
status and control register with OVRF set and then reading the receive data register.
1 = Overflow
0 = No overflow

Registers
MODF — Mode Fault Bit
This clearable, read-only flag is set in a slave SPI if the SS pin goes high during a transmission with
MODFEN set. In a master SPI, the MODF flag is set if the SS pin goes low at any time with the
MODFEN bit set. Clear MODF by reading the SPI status and control register (SPSCR) with MODF set
and then writing to the SPI control register (SPCR).
1 = SS pin at inappropriate logic level
0 = SS pin at appropriate logic level
SPTE — SPI Transmitter Empty Bit
This clearable, read-only flag is set each time the transmit data register transfers a byte into the shift
register. SPTE generates an SPTE interrupt request if the SPTIE bit in the SPI control register is also
set.
NOTE
Do not write to the SPI data register unless SPTE is high.
During an SPTE interrupt, user software can clear SPTE by writing to the transmit data register.
1 = Transmit data register empty
0 = Transmit data register not empty
MODFEN — Mode Fault Enable Bit
This read/write bit, when set, allows the MODF flag to be set. If the MODF flag is set, clearing MODFEN
does not clear the MODF flag. If the SPI is enabled as a master and the MODFEN bit is 0, then the SS
pin is available as a general-purpose I/O.
If the MODFEN bit is 1, then this pin is not available as a general-purpose I/O. When the SPI is enabled
as a slave, the SS pin is not available as a general-purpose I/O regardless of the value of MODFEN.
See 15.7.4 SS (Slave Select).
If the MODFEN bit is 0, the level of the SS pin does not affect the operation of an enabled SPI
configured as a master. For an enabled SPI configured as a slave, having MODFEN low only prevents
the MODF flag from being set. It does not affect any other part of SPI operation. See 15.3.6.2 Mode
Fault Error.
SPR1 and SPR0 — SPI Baud Rate Select Bits
In master mode, these read/write bits select one of four baud rates as shown in Table 15-3. SPR1 and
SPR0 have no effect in slave mode.

Timer Interface Module (TIM)
16.1 Introduction
This section describes the timer interface module (TIM). The TIM module is a 4-channel timer that
provides a timing reference with input capture, output compare, and pulse-width-modulation functions.
The TIM module shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See Figure 16-1 for port
location of these shared pins.
16.2 Features
Features include the following:
• Four input capture/output compare channels
– Rising-edge, falling-edge, or any-edge input capture trigger
– Set, clear, or toggle output compare action
• Buffered and unbuffered output compare pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal generation
• Programmable clock input
– 7-frequency internal bus clock prescaler selection
– External clock input pin if available, See Figure 16-1
• Free-running or modulo up-count operation
• Toggle any channel pin on overflow
• Counter stop and reset bits
16.3 Functional Description
Figure 16-2 shows the structure of the TIM. The central component of the TIM is the 16-bit counter that
can operate as a free-running counter or a modulo up-counter. The counter provides the timing reference
for the input capture and output compare functions. The TIM counter modulo registers, TMODH:TMODL,
control the modulo value of the counter. Software can read the counter value, TCNTH:TCNTL, at any time
without affecting the counting sequence.
The four TIM channels are programmable independently as input capture or output compare channels.
16.3.1 TIM Counter Prescaler
The TIM clock source is one of the seven prescaler outputs or the external clock input pin, TCLK if
available. The prescaler generates seven clock rates from the internal bus clock. The prescaler select
bits, PS[2:0], in the TIM status and control register (TSC) select the clock source.

16.3.2 Input Capture
With the input capture function, the TIM can capture the time at which an external event occurs. When an
active edge occurs on the pin of an input capture channel, the TIM latches the contents of the counter into
the TIM channel registers, TCHxH:TCHxL. The polarity of the active edge is programmable. Input
captures can be enabled to generate interrupt requests.

16.3.3 Output Compare
With the output compare function, the TIM can generate a periodic pulse with a programmable polarity,
duration, and frequency. When the counter reaches the value in the registers of an output compare

Freescale Semiconductor
177
Timer Interface Module (TIM)
channel, the TIM can set, clear, or toggle the channel pin. Output compares can be enabled to generate
interrupt requests.
16.3.3.1 Unbuffered Output Compare
Any output compare channel can generate unbuffered output compare pulses as described in 16.3.3
Output Compare. The pulses are unbuffered because changing the output compare value requires writing
the new value over the old value currently in the TIM channel registers.
An unsynchronized write to the TIM channel registers to change an output compare value could cause
incorrect operation for up to two counter overflow periods. For example, writing a new value before the
counter reaches the old value but after the counter reaches the new value prevents any compare during
that counter overflow period. Also, using a TIM overflow interrupt routine to write a new, smaller output
compare value may cause the compare to be missed. The TIM may pass the new value before it is written.
Use the following methods to synchronize unbuffered changes in the output compare value on channel x:
• When changing to a smaller value, enable channel x output compare interrupts and write the new
value in the output compare interrupt routine. The output compare interrupt occurs at the end of
the current output compare pulse. The interrupt routine has until the end of the counter overflow
period to write the new value.
• When changing to a larger output compare value, enable TIM overflow interrupts and write the new
value in the TIM overflow interrupt routine. The TIM overflow interrupt occurs at the end of the
current counter overflow period. Writing a larger value in an output compare interrupt routine (at
the end of the current pulse) could cause two output compares to occur in the same counter
overflow period.
16.3.3.2 Buffered Output Compare
Channels 0 and 1 can be linked to form a buffered output compare channel whose output appears on the
TCH0 pin. The TIM channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the output.
Setting the MS0B bit in TIM channel 0 status and control register (TSC0) links channel 0 and channel 1.
The output compare value in the TIM channel 0 registers initially controls the output on the TCH0 pin.
Writing to the TIM channel 1 registers enables the TIM channel 1 registers to synchronously control the
output after the TIM overflows. At each subsequent overflow, the TIM channel registers (0 or 1) that
control the output are the ones written to last. TSC0 controls and monitors the buffered output compare
function, and TIM channel 1 status and control register (TSC1) is unused. While the MS0B bit is set, the
channel 1 pin, TCH1, is available as a general-purpose I/O pin.
Channels 2 and 3 can be linked to form a buffered output compare channel whose output appears on the
TCH2 pin. The TIM channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the output.
Setting the MS2B bit in TIM channel 2 status and control register (TSC2) links channel 2 and channel 3.
The output compare value in the TIM channel 2 registers initially controls the output on the TCH2 pin.
Writing to the TIM channel 3 registers enables the TIM channel 3 registers to synchronously control the
output after the TIM overflows. At each subsequent overflow, the TIM channel registers (2 or 3) that
control the output are the ones written to last. TSC2 controls and monitors the buffered output compare
function, and TIM channel 3 status and control register (TSC3) is unused. While the MS2B bit is set, the
channel 3 pin, TCH3, is available as a general-purpose I/O pin.
NOTE
In buffered output compare operation, do not write new output compare
values to the currently active channel registers. User software should track

the currently active channel to prevent writing a new value to the active
channel. Writing to the active channel registers is the same as generating
unbuffered output compares.
16.3.4 Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
By using the toggle-on-overflow feature with an output compare channel, the TIM can generate a PWM
signal. The value in the TIM counter modulo registers determines the period of the PWM signal. The
channel pin toggles when the counter reaches the value in the TIM counter modulo registers. The time
between overflows is the period of the PWM signal.
As Figure 16-3 shows, the output compare value in the TIM channel registers determines the pulse width
of the PWM signal. The time between overflow and output compare is the pulse width. Program the TIM
to clear the channel pin on output compare if the polarity of the PWM pulse is 1 (ELSxA = 0). Program the
TIM to set the pin if the polarity of the PWM pulse is 0 (ELSxA = 1).
The value in the TIM counter modulo registers and the selected prescaler output determines the
frequency of the PWM output The frequency of an 8-bit PWM signal is variable in 256 increments. Writing
$00FF (255) to the TIM counter modulo registers produces a PWM period of 256 times the internal bus
clock period if the prescaler select value is 000. See 16.8.1 TIM Status and Control Register.
The value in the TIM channel registers determines the pulse width of the PWM output. The pulse width of
an 8-bit PWM signal is variable in 256 increments. Writing $0080 (128) to the TIM channel registers
produces a duty cycle of 128/256 or 50%.

16.3.4.1 Unbuffered PWM Signal Generation
Any output compare channel can generate unbuffered PWM pulses as described in 16.3.4 Pulse Width
Modulation (PWM). The pulses are unbuffered because changing the pulse width requires writing the new
pulse width value over the old value currently in the TIM channel registers.
An unsynchronized write to the TIM channel registers to change a pulse width value could cause incorrect
operation for up to two PWM periods. For example, writing a new value before the counter reaches the
old value but after the counter reaches the new value prevents any compare during that PWM period.
Also, using a TIM overflow interrupt routine to write a new, smaller pulse width value may cause the
compare to be missed. The TIM may pass the new value before it is written to the timer channel
(TCHxH:TCHxL).

Timer Interface Module (TIM)
Use the following methods to synchronize unbuffered changes in the PWM pulse width on channel x:
• When changing to a shorter pulse width, enable channel x output compare interrupts and write the
new value in the output compare interrupt routine. The output compare interrupt occurs at the end
of the current pulse. The interrupt routine has until the end of the PWM period to write the new
value.
• When changing to a longer pulse width, enable TIM overflow interrupts and write the new value in
the TIM overflow interrupt routine. The TIM overflow interrupt occurs at the end of the current PWM
period. Writing a larger value in an output compare interrupt routine (at the end of the current pulse)
could cause two output compares to occur in the same PWM period.
NOTE
In PWM signal generation, do not program the PWM channel to toggle on
output compare. Toggling on output compare prevents reliable 0% duty
cycle generation and removes the ability of the channel to self-correct in the
event of software error or noise. Toggling on output compare also can
cause incorrect PWM signal generation when changing the PWM pulse
width to a new, much larger value.
16.3.4.2 Buffered PWM Signal Generation
Channels 0 and 1 can be linked to form a buffered PWM channel whose output appears on the TCH0 pin.
The TIM channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the output.
Setting the MS0B bit in TIM channel 0 status and control register (TSC0) links channel 0 and channel 1.
The TIM channel 0 registers initially control the pulse width on the TCH0 pin. Writing to the TIM channel 1
registers enables the TIM channel 1 registers to synchronously control the pulse width at the beginning
of the next PWM period. At each subsequent overflow, the TIM channel registers (0 or 1) that control the
pulse width are the ones written to last. TSC0 controls and monitors the buffered PWM function, and TIM
channel 1 status and control register (TSC1) is unused. While the MS0B bit is set, the channel 1 pin,
TCH1, is available as a general-purpose I/O pin.
Channels 2 and 3 can be linked to form a buffered PWM channel whose output appears on the TCH2 pin.
The TIM channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the output.
Setting the MS2B bit in TIM channel 2 status and control register (TSC2) links channel 2 and channel 3.
The TIM channel 2 registers initially control the pulse width on the TCH2 pin. Writing to the TIM channel
3 registers enables the TIM channel 3 registers to synchronously control the pulse width at the beginning
of the next PWM period. At each subsequent overflow, the TIM channel registers (2 or 3) that control the
pulse width are the ones written to last. TSC2 controls and monitors the buffered PWM function, and TIM
channel 3 status and control register (TSC3) is unused. While the MS2B bit is set, the channel 3 pin,
TCH3, is available as a general-purpose I/O pin.
NOTE
In buffered PWM signal generation, do not write new pulse width values to
the currently active channel registers. User software should track the
currently active channel to prevent writing a new value to the active
channel. Writing to the active channel registers is the same as generating
unbuffered PWM signals.

Functional Description
16.3.4.3 PWM Initialization
To ensure correct operation when generating unbuffered or buffered PWM signals, use the following
initialization procedure:
1. In the TIM status and control register (TSC):
a. Stop the counter by setting the TIM stop bit, TSTOP.
b. Reset the counter and prescaler by setting the TIM reset bit, TRST.
2. In the TIM counter modulo registers (TMODH:TMODL), write the value for the required PWM
period.
3. In the TIM channel x registers (TCHxH:TCHxL), write the value for the required pulse width.
4. In TIM channel x status and control register (TSCx):
a. Write 0:1 (for unbuffered output compare or PWM signals) or 1:0 (for buffered output compare
or PWM signals) to the mode select bits, MSxB:MSxA. See Table 16-2.
b. Write 1 to the toggle-on-overflow bit, TOVx.
c. Write 1:0 (polarity 1 — to clear output on compare) or 1:1 (polarity 0 — to set output on
compare) to the edge/level select bits, ELSxB:ELSxA. The output action on compare must
force the output to the complement of the pulse width level. See Table 16-2.
NOTE
In PWM signal generation, do not program the PWM channel to toggle on
output compare. Toggling on output compare prevents reliable 0% duty
cycle generation and removes the ability of the channel to self-correct in the
event of software error or noise. Toggling on output compare can also
cause incorrect PWM signal generation when changing the PWM pulse
width to a new, much larger value.
5. In the TIM status control register (TSC), clear the TIM stop bit, TSTOP.
Setting MS0B links channels 0 and 1 and configures them for buffered PWM operation. The TIM
channel 0 registers (TCH0H:TCH0L) initially control the buffered PWM output. TIM status control
register 0 (TSC0) controls and monitors the PWM signal from the linked channels. MS0B takes priority
over MS0A.
Setting MS2B links channels 2 and 3 and configures them for buffered PWM operation. The TIM
channel 2 registers (TCH2H:TCH2L) initially control the buffered PWM output. TIM status control
register 2 (TSC2) controls and monitors the PWM signal from the linked channels. MS2B takes priority
over MS2A.
Clearing the toggle-on-overflow bit, TOVx, inhibits output toggles on TIM overflows. Subsequent output
compares try to force the output to a state it is already in and have no effect. The result is a 0% duty cycle
output.
Setting the channel x maximum duty cycle bit (CHxMAX) and setting the TOVx bit generates a 100% duty
cycle output. See 16.8.4 TIM Channel Status and Control Registers.

Timer Interface Module (TIM)
16.4 Interrupts
The following TIM sources can generate interrupt requests:
• TIM overflow flag (TOF) — The TOF bit is set when the counter reaches the modulo value
programmed in the TIM counter modulo registers. The TIM overflow interrupt enable bit, TOIE,
enables TIM overflow interrupt requests. TOF and TOIE are in the TSC register.
• TIM channel flags (CH3F:CH0F) — The CHxF bit is set when an input capture or output compare
occurs on channel x. Channel x TIM interrupt requests are controlled by the channel x interrupt
enable bit, CHxIE. Channel x TIM interrupt requests are enabled when CHxIE =1. CHxF and
CHxIE are in the TSCx register.
16.5 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
16.5.1 Wait Mode
The TIM remains active after the execution of a WAIT instruction. In wait mode the TIM registers are not
accessible by the CPU. Any enabled interrupt request from the TIM can bring the MCU out of wait mode.
If TIM functions are not required during wait mode, reduce power consumption by stopping the TIM before
executing the WAIT instruction.
16.5.2 Stop Mode
The TIM module is inactive after the execution of a STOP instruction. The STOP instruction does not
affect register conditions. TIM operation resumes after an external interrupt. If stop mode is exited by
reset, the TIM is reset.
16.6 TIM During Break Interrupts
A break interrupt stops the counter.
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See BFCR in the SIM section of this data sheet.
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to BCFE. If a status bit is cleared
during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect status bits during the break state, write a 0 to BCFE. With BCFE cleared (its default state),
software can read and write registers during the break state without affecting status bits. Some status bits
have a two-step read/write clearing procedure. If software does the first step on such a bit before the
break, the bit cannot change during the break state as long as BCFE is cleared. After the break, doing the
second step clears the status bit.

I/O Signals
16.7 I/O Signals
The TIM module can share its pins with the general-purpose I/O pins. See Figure 16-1 for the port pins
that are shared.
16.7.1 TIM Channel I/O Pins (TCH3:TCH0)
Each channel I/O pin is programmable independently as an input capture pin or an output compare pin.
TCH0 and TCH2 can be configured as buffered output compare or buffered PWM pins.
16.7.2 TIM Clock Pin (TCLK)
TCLK is an external clock input that can be the clock source for the counter instead of the prescaled
internal bus clock. Select the TCLK input by writing 1s to the three prescaler select bits, PS[2:0].
(See 16.8.1 TIM Status and Control Register.) The minimum TCLK pulse width is specified in 18.16 Timer
Interface Module Characteristics. The maximum TCLK frequency is the least of 4 MHz or bus
frequency ÷ 2.
16.8 Registers
The following registers control and monitor operation of the TIM:
• TIM status and control register (TSC)
• TIM control registers (TCNTH:TCNTL)
• TIM counter modulo registers (TMODH:TMODL)
• TIM channel status and control registers (TSC0 through TSC3)
• TIM channel registers (TCH0H:TCH0L through TCH3H:TCH3L)
16.8.1 TIM Status and Control Register
The TIM status and control register (TSC) does the following:
• Enables TIM overflow interrupts
• Flags TIM overflows
• Stops the counter
• Resets the counter
• Prescales the counter clock

This read/write flag is set when the counter reaches the modulo value programmed in the TIM counter

1 to TOF has no effect.
1 = Counter has reached modulo value
0 = Counter has not reached modulo value
TOIE — TIM Overflow Interrupt Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables TIM overflow interrupts when the TOF bit becomes set.
1 = TIM overflow interrupts enabled
0 = TIM overflow interrupts disabled
TSTOP — TIM Stop Bit
This read/write bit stops the counter. Counting resumes when TSTOP is cleared. Reset sets the
TSTOP bit, stopping the counter until software clears the TSTOP bit.
1 = Counter stopped
0 = Counter active
NOTE
Do not set the TSTOP bit before entering wait mode if the TIM is required
to exit wait mode. Also, when the TSTOP bit is set and the timer is
configured for input capture operation, input captures are inhibited until the
TSTOP bit is cleared.
When using TSOP to stop the timer counter, see if any timer flags are set.
If a timer flag is set, it must be cleared by clearing TSTOP, then clearing the
flag, then setting TSTOP again.
TRST — TIM Reset Bit
Setting this write-only bit resets the counter and the TIM prescaler. Setting TRST has no effect on any
other timer registers. Counting resumes from $0000. TRST is cleared automatically after the counter
is reset and always reads as 0.
1 = Prescaler and counter cleared
0 = No effect
NOTE
Setting the TSTOP and TRST bits simultaneously stops the counter at a
value of $0000.
PS[2:0] — Prescaler Select Bits
These read/write bits select one of the seven prescaler outputs as the input to the counter as

16.8.2 TIM Counter Registers
The two read-only TIM counter registers contain the high and low bytes of the value in the counter.
Reading the high byte (TCNTH) latches the contents of the low byte (TCNTL) into a buffer. Subsequent
reads of TCNTH do not affect the latched TCNTL value until TCNTL is read. Reset clears the TIM counter
registers. Setting the TIM reset bit (TRST) also clears the TIM counter registers.
NOTE
If you read TCNTH during a break interrupt, be sure to unlatch TCNTL by
reading TCNTL before exiting the break interrupt. Otherwise, TCNTL
retains the value latched during the break.

• Enables input capture and output compare interrupts
• Selects input capture, output compare, or PWM operation
• Selects high, low, or toggling output on output compare

Clear CHxF by reading the TSCx register with CHxF set and then writing a 0 to CHxF. If another

ELSxB and ELSxA — Edge/Level Select Bits
When channel x is an input capture channel, these read/write bits control the active edge-sensing logic
on channel x.
When channel x is an output compare channel, ELSxB and ELSxA control the channel x output
behavior when an output compare occurs.
When ELSxB and ELSxA are both clear, channel x is not connected to an I/O port, and pin TCHx is
available as a general-purpose I/O pin. Table 16-2 shows how ELSxB and ELSxA work.
NOTE
After initially enabling a TIM channel register for input capture operation
and selecting the edge sensitivity, clear CHxF to ignore any erroneous
edge detection flags.
TOVx — Toggle-On-Overflow Bit
When channel x is an output compare channel, this read/write bit controls the behavior of the channel
x output when the counter overflows. When channel x is an input capture channel, TOVx has no effect.
1 = Channel x pin toggles on counter overflow.
0 = Channel x pin does not toggle on counter overflow.
NOTE
When TOVx is set, a counter overflow takes precedence over a channel x
output compare if both occur at the same time.
CHxMAX — Channel x Maximum Duty Cycle Bit
When the TOVx bit is at 1, setting the CHxMAX bit forces the duty cycle of buffered and unbuffered
PWM signals to 100%. As Figure 16-13 shows, the CHxMAX bit takes effect in the cycle after it is set
or cleared. The output stays at the 100% duty cycle level until the cycle after CHxMAX is cleared.

Development Support
17.1 Introduction
This section describes the break module, the monitor module (MON), and the monitor mode entry
methods.
17.2 Break Module (BRK)
The break module can generate a break interrupt that stops normal program flow at a defined address to
enter a background program.
Features include:
• Accessible input/output (I/O) registers during the break Interrupt
• Central processor unit (CPU) generated break interrupts
• Software-generated break interrupts
• Computer operating properly (COP) disabling during break interrupts
17.2.1 Functional Description
When the internal address bus matches the value written in the break address registers, the break module
issues a breakpoint signal (BKPT) to the system integration module (SIM). The SIM then causes the CPU
to load the instruction register with a software interrupt instruction (SWI). The program counter vectors to
$FFFC and $FFFD ($FEFC and $FEFD in monitor mode).
The following events can cause a break interrupt to occur:
• A CPU generated address (the address in the program counter) matches the contents of the break
address registers.
• Software writes a 1 to the BRKA bit in the break status and control register.
When a CPU generated address matches the contents of the break address registers, the break interrupt
is generated. A return-from-interrupt instruction (RTI) in the break routine ends the break interrupt and
returns the microcontroller unit (MCU) to normal operation.
Figure 17-2 shows the structure of the break module.
When the internal address bus matches the value written in the break address registers or when software

The break interrupt timing is:
• When a break address is placed at the address of the instruction opcode, the instruction is not
executed until after completion of the break interrupt routine.
• When a break address is placed at an address of an instruction operand, the instruction is executed
before the break interrupt.
• When software writes a 1 to the BRKA bit, the break interrupt occurs just before the next instruction
is executed.
By updating a break address and clearing the BRKA bit in a break interrupt routine, a break interrupt can
be generated continuously.
CAUTION
A break address should be placed at the address of the instruction opcode.
When software does not change the break address and clears the BRKA
bit in the first break interrupt routine, the next break interrupt will not be
generated after exiting the interrupt routine even when the internal address
bus matches the value written in the break address registers.
17.2.1.1 Flag Protection During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether or not module status bits can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the break flag control register (BFCR) enables software to clear status
bits during the break state. See 14.8.2 Break Flag Control Register and the Break Interrupts subsection
for each module.
17.2.1.2 TIM During Break Interrupts
A break interrupt stops the timer counter.
17.2.1.3 COP During Break Interrupts

auxiliary register (BRKAR).

0 = Status bits not clearable during break
17.2.3 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions put the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes. If enabled, the
break module will remain enabled in wait and stop modes. However, since the internal address bus does
not increment in these modes, a break interrupt will never be triggered.
17.3 Monitor Module (MON)
The monitor module allows debugging and programming of the microcontroller unit (MCU) through a
single-wire interface with a host computer. Monitor mode entry can be achieved without use of the higher
test voltage, VTST, as long as vector addresses $FFFE and $FFFF are blank, thus reducing the hardware
requirements for in-circuit programming.
Features include:
• Normal user-mode pin functionality
• One pin dedicated to serial communication between MCU and host computer
• Standard non-return-to-zero (NRZ) communication with host computer
• Standard communication baud rate (7200 @ 2-MHz bus frequency)
• Execution of code in random-access memory (RAM) or FLASH
• FLASH memory security feature(1)
• FLASH memory programming interface
• Use of external 9.8304 MHz oscillator to generate internal frequency of 2.4576 MHz
• Simple internal oscillator mode of operation (no external clock or high voltage)
• Monitor mode entry without high voltage, VTST, if reset vector is blank ($FFFE and $FFFF contain
$FF)
• Normal monitor mode entry if VTST is applied to IRQ
17.3.1 Functional Description
Figure 17-9 shows a simplified diagram of monitor mode entry.
The monitor module receives and executes commands from a host computer. Figure 17-10, Figure 17-11,
and Figure 17-12 show example circuits used to enter monitor mode and communicate with a host
computer via a standard RS-232 interface.
Simple monitor commands can access any memory address. In monitor mode, the MCU can execute
code downloaded into RAM by a host computer while most MCU pins retain normal operating mode
functions. All communication between the host computer and the MCU is through the PTA0 pin. A
level-shifting and multiplexing interface is required between PTA0 and the host computer. PTA0 is used
in a wired-OR configuration and requires a pullup resistor.
1. No security feature is absolutely secure. However, Freescale’s strategy is to make reading or copying the FLASH difficult for
unauthorized users.

Figure 17-12. Monitor Mode Circuit (Internal Clock, No High Voltage)
The monitor code has been updated from previous versions of the monitor code to allow enabling the
internal oscillator to generate the internal clock. This addition, which is enabled when IRQ is held low out
of reset, is intended to support serial communication/programming at 9600 baud in monitor mode by using
the internal oscillator, and the internal oscillator user trim value OSCTRIM (FLASH location $FFC0, if
programmed) to generate the desired internal frequency (3.2 MHz). Since this feature is enabled only
when IRQ is held low out of reset, it cannot be used when the reset vector is programmed (i.e., the value
is not $FFFF) because entry into monitor mode in this case requires VTST on IRQ. The IRQ pin must
remain low during this monitor session in order to maintain communication.
Table 17-1 shows the pin conditions for entering monitor mode. As specified in the table, monitor mode
may be entered after a power-on reset (POR) and will allow communication at 9600 baud provided one
of the following sets of conditions is met:
• If $FFFE and $FFFF do not contain $FF (programmed state):
– The external clock is 9.8304 MHz
– IRQ = VTST
• If $FFFE and $FFFF contain $FF (erased state):
– The external clock is 9.8304 MHz
– IRQ = VDD (this can be implemented through the internal IRQ pullup)
• If $FFFE and $FFFF contain $FF (erased state):
– IRQ = VSS (internal oscillator is selected, no external clock required)
The rising edge of the internal RST signal latches the monitor mode. Once monitor mode is latched, the
values on PTA1 and PTA4 pins can be changed.
Once out of reset, the MCU waits for the host to send eight security bytes (see 17.3.2 Security). After the
security bytes, the MCU sends a break signal (10 consecutive 0s) to the host, indicating that it is ready to
receive a command.

17.3.1.1 Normal Monitor Mode
RST and OSC1 functions will be active on the PTA3 and PTA5 pins respectively as long as VTST is
applied to the IRQ pin. If the IRQ pin is lowered (no longer VTST) then the chip will still be operating in
monitor mode, but the pin functions will be determined by the settings in the configuration registers (see
Chapter 5 Configuration Register (CONFIG)) when VTST was lowered. With VTST lowered, the BIH and
BIL instructions will read the IRQ pin state only if IRQEN is set in the CONFIG2 register.
If monitor mode was entered with VTST on IRQ, then the COP is disabled as long as VTST is applied to
IRQ.
MC68HC908QB8 Data Sheet, Rev. 1
200
Freescale Semiconductor
Monitor Module (MON)
17.3.1.2 Forced Monitor Mode
If entering monitor mode without high voltage on IRQ, then startup port pin requirements and conditions,
(PTA1/PTA4) are not in effect. This is to reduce circuit requirements when performing in-circuit
programming.
NOTE
If the reset vector is blank and monitor mode is entered, the chip will see an
additional reset cycle after the initial power-on reset (POR). Once the reset
vector has been programmed, the traditional method of applying a voltage,
VTST, to IRQ must be used to enter monitor mode.
If monitor mode was entered as a result of the reset vector being blank, the COP is always disabled
regardless of the state of IRQ.
If the voltage applied to the IRQ is less than VTST, the MCU will come out of reset in user mode. Internal
circuitry monitors the reset vector fetches and will assert an internal reset if it detects that the reset vectors
are erased ($FF). When the MCU comes out of reset, it is forced into monitor mode without requiring high
voltage on the IRQ pin. Once out of reset, the monitor code is initially executing with the internal clock at
its default frequency.
If IRQ is held high, all pins will default to regular input port functions except for PTA0 and PTA5 which will
operate as a serial communication port and OSC1 input respectively (refer to Figure 17-11). That will
allow the clock to be driven from an external source through OSC1 pin.
If IRQ is held low, all pins will default to regular input port function except for PTA0 which will operate as
serial communication port. Refer to Figure 17-12.
Regardless of the state of the IRQ pin, it will not function as a port input pin in monitor mode. Bit 2 of the
Port A data register will always read 0. The BIH and BIL instructions will behave as if the IRQ pin is
enabled, regardless of the settings in the configuration register. See Chapter 5 Configuration Register
(CONFIG).
The COP module is disabled in forced monitor mode. Any reset other than a power-on reset (POR) will
automatically force the MCU to come back to the forced monitor mode.
17.3.1.3 Monitor Vectors
In monitor mode, the MCU uses different vectors for reset, SWI (software interrupt), and break interrupt
than those for user mode. The alternate vectors are in the $FE page instead of the $FF page and allow
code execution from the internal monitor firmware instead of user code.
NOTE
Exiting monitor mode after it has been initiated by having a blank reset
vector requires a power-on reset (POR). Pulling RST (when RST pin
available) low will not exit monitor mode in this situation.
Table 17-2 summarizes the differences between user mode and monitor mode regarding vectors.

17.3.1.6 Baud Rate
The monitor communication baud rate is controlled by the frequency of the external or internal oscillator
and the state of the appropriate pins as shown in Table 17-1.
Table 17-1 also lists the bus frequencies to achieve standard baud rates. The effective baud rate is the
bus frequency divided by 256 when using an external oscillator. When using the internal oscillator in
forced monitor mode, the effective baud rate is the bus frequency divided by 335.
17.3.1.7 Commands
The monitor ROM firmware uses these commands:
• READ (read memory)
• WRITE (write memory)
• IREAD (indexed read)
• IWRITE (indexed write)
• READSP (read stack pointer)
• RUN (run user program)
The monitor ROM firmware echoes each received byte back to the PTA0 pin for error checking. An 11-bit
delay at the end of each command allows the host to send a break character to cancel the command. A
delay of two bit times occurs before each echo and before READ, IREAD, or READSP data is returned.
The data returned by a read command appears after the echo of the last byte of the command.
NOTE
Wait one bit time after each echo before sending the next byte.

ECHO
The MCU executes the SWI and PSHH instructions when it enters monitor mode. The RUN command
tells the MCU to execute the PULH and RTI instructions. Before sending the RUN command, the host can
modify the stacked CPU registers to prepare to run the host program. The READSP command returns
the incremented stack pointer value, SP + 1. The high and low bytes of the program counter are at
addresses SP + 5 and SP + 6.

17.3.2 Security
A security feature discourages unauthorized reading of FLASH locations while in monitor mode. The host
can bypass the security feature at monitor mode entry by sending eight security bytes that match the
bytes at locations $FFF6–$FFFD. Locations $FFF6–$FFFD contain user-defined data.
NOTE
Do not leave locations $FFF6–$FFFD blank. For security reasons, program
locations $FFF6–$FFFD even if they are not used for vectors.
During monitor mode entry, the MCU waits after the power-on reset for the host to send the eight security
bytes on pin PTA0. If the received bytes match those at locations $FFF6–$FFFD, the host bypasses the
security feature and can read all FLASH locations and execute code from FLASH. Security remains
bypassed until a power-on reset occurs. If the reset was not a power-on reset, security remains bypassed
and security code entry is not required. See Figure 17-18.
Upon power-on reset, if the received bytes of the security code do not match the data at locations
$FFF6–$FFFD, the host fails to bypass the security feature. The MCU remains in monitor mode, but
reading a FLASH location returns an invalid value and trying to execute code from FLASH causes an
illegal address reset. After receiving the eight security bytes from the host, the MCU transmits a break
character, signifying that it is ready to receive a command.
NOTE
The MCU does not transmit a break character until after the host sends the
eight security bytes.

Figure 17-18. Monitor Mode Entry Timing
To determine whether the security code entered is correct, check to see if bit 6 of RAM address $80 is
set. If it is, then the correct security code has been entered and FLASH can be accessed.
If the security sequence fails, the device should be reset by a power-on reset and brought up in monitor
mode to attempt another entry. After failing the security sequence, the FLASH module can also be mass
erased by executing an erase routine that was downloaded into internal RAM. The mass erase operation
clears the security code locations so that all eight security bytes become $FF (blank).

Electrical Specifications
18.1 Introduction
This section contains electrical and timing specifications.
18.2 Absolute Maximum Ratings
Maximum ratings are the extreme limits to which the microcontroller unit (MCU) can be exposed without
permanently damaging it.
NOTE
This device is not guaranteed to operate properly at the maximum ratings.
Refer to 18.5 5-V DC Electrical Characteristics and 18.8 3-V DC Electrical
Characteristics for guaranteed operating conditions.

NOTE
This device contains circuitry to protect the inputs against damage due to
high static voltages or electric fields; however, it is advised that normal
precautions be taken to avoid application of any voltage higher than
maximum-rated voltages to this high-impedance circuit. For proper
operation, it is recommended that VIN and VOUT be constrained to the
range VSS ≤ (VIN or VOUT) ≤ VDD. Reliability of operation is enhanced if
unused inputs are connected to an appropriate logic voltage level (for
example, either VSS or VDD.)

1. Bus frequency, fOP, is oscillator frequency divided by 4.
2. Factory trimmed to provided 12.8MHz accuracy requirement (± 5%, @25°C) for forced monitor mode communication. User
should trim in-circuit to obtain the most accurate internal oscillator frequency for his application.
3. Values are based on characterization results, not tested in production.
4. Deviation values assumes trimming in target application @25°C and midpoint of voltage range, for example 5.0 V for 5 V
± 10% operation.
5. No more than 10% duty cycle deviation from 50%.
6. When external oscillator clock is greater than 1MHz, ECFS1:ECFS0 must be 00 or 01
7. Use fundamental mode only, do not use overtone crystals or overtone ceramic resonators
8. Due to variations in electrical properties of external components such as, ESR and Load Capacitance, operation above
16 MHz is not guaranteed for all crystals or ceramic resonators. Operation above 16 MHz requires that a Negative Resistance Margin (NRM) characterization and component optimization be performed by the crystal or ceramic resonator vendor
for every different type of crystal or ceramic resonator which will be used. This characterization and optimization must be
performed at the extremes of voltage and temperature which will be applied to the microcontroller in the application. The
NRM must meet or exceed 10x the maximum ESR of the crystal or ceramic resonator for acceptable performance.
9. Do not use damping resistor when ECFS1:ECFS0 = 00 or 10
10. Consult crystal vendor data sheet.

1. Typical values assume VDD = 5.0 V, temperature = 25°C, fADCK = 1.0 MHz unless otherwise stated. Typical values are for
reference only and are not tested in production.
2. Incremental IDD added to MCU mode current.
3. Values are based on characterization results, not tested in production.
4. Reference the ADC module specification for more information on calculating conversion times.
5. Based on typical input pad leakage current.
6. LVI must be enabled, (LVIPWRD = 0, in CONFIG1). Voltage input to ADCH4:0 = $1A, an ADC conversion on this channel
allows user to determine supply voltage.

1. Typical values are for reference only and are not tested in production.
2. Values are based on characterization results, not tested in production.
3. fRead is defined as the frequency range for which the FLASH memory can be read.
4. tRCV is defined as the time it needs before the FLASH can be read after turning off the high voltage charge pump, by clearing HVEN to 0.
5. tHV is defined as the cumulative high voltage programming time to the same row before next erase.
tHV must satisfy this condition: tNVS + tNVH + tPGS + (tPROG x 32) ≤ tHV maximum.
6. Typical endurance was evaluated for this product family. For additional information on how Freescale Semiconductor
defines Typical Endurance, please refer to Engineering Bulletin EB619.
7. Typical data retention values are based on intrinsic capability of the technology measured at high temperature and de-rated
to 25°C using the Arrhenius equation. For additional information on how Freescale Semiconductor defines Typical Data
Retention, please refer to Engineering Bulletin EB618.
