NSC COP8TAC5CLQ8 8-bit cmos flash microcontroller with 2k byte or 4k byte memory Datasheet

COP8TAB9/TAC9
8-Bit CMOS Flash Microcontroller with 2k Byte or 4k
Byte Memory
1.0 General Description
The COP8TAB9/TAC9 Flash microcontrollers are highly integrated COP8™ Feature core devices, with 2k or 4k Flash
memory and advanced features. These single-chip CMOS
devices are suited for applications requiring a full featured,
in-system reprogrammable controller with moderate memory
and low EMI. The same device is used for development,
pre-production and volume production with a range of COP8
software and hardware development tools.
A Masked ROM device (COP8TAB5/TAC5) has been developed and provides identical features except for the Boot
ROM and Flash Memory and related features such as In-
System Programming and reprogrammability. The ROM device is supported, in emulation, by this device.
The lack of the Boot ROM and Flash Memory in the ROM
device, prompts us to caution the user, utilizing the
COP8TAx9 Flash based devices during development for
applications to be produced using the COP8TAx5 ROM devices, to ensure that code contains NO calls to Boot ROM
functions prior to submission for ROM generation. Instances
of the JSRB instruction in ROM based devices will be executed as a JSR instruction to a location in the first 256 bytes
of Program Memory.

Flash and ROM devices are not 100% identical. The execution of the
JSRB instruction is an example of the potential differences between
the devices. For this reason, the user is strongly advised to obtain a
masked ROM prototype devices before committing to production
quantities. This will allow the user to ensure there are no unexpected
differences between Flash an ROM devices within the application.
Note: The user, utilizing the COP8TAx9 Flash based devices during development for applications to be produced using the COP8TAx5 ROM
devices, is cautioned to ensure that code contains NO calls to Boot
ROM functions prior to submission for ROM generation. Instances of
the JSRB instruction in ROM based devices will be executed as a JSR

Pinouts for 44-, 20- and 28-Pin Packages
COP8TAB9/TAC9
well-engineered products that compete in the marketplace.
Many of these issues can be addressed through the manner
in which a microcontroller’s instruction set handles processing tasks. And that’s why the COP8 family offers a unique
and code-efficient instruction set - one that provides the
flexibility, functionality, reduced costs and faster time to market that today’s microcontroller based products require.
6.0 Architectural Overview
6.1 EMI REDUCTION
The COP8TAB9/TAC9 devices incorporate circuitry that
guards against electromagnetic interference - an increasing
problem in today’s microcontroller board designs. National’s
patented EMI reduction technology offers low EMI clock
circuitry, gradual turn-on output drivers (GTOs) and internal
Icc smoothing filters, to help circumvent many of the EMI
issues influencing embedded control designs. National has
achieved 15 dB–20 dB reduction in EMI transmissions when
designs have incorporated its patented EMI reducing circuitry.
Code efficiency is important because it enables designers to
pack more on-chip functionality into less program memory
space (ROM, OTP or Flash). Selecting a microcontroller with
less program memory size translates into lower system
costs, and the added security of knowing that more code can
be packed into the available program memory space.
6.2 IN-SYSTEM PROGRAMMING
The devices include a program in a boot ROM that provides
the capability, through the MICROWIRE/PLUS serial interface, to erase, program and read the contents of the Flash
memory.
Additional routines are included in the boot ROM, which can
be called by the user program, to enable the user to customize in-system software update capability if MICROWIRE/
PLUS is not desired.
The contents of the boot ROM have been defined by National. Execution of code from the boot ROM is dependent
on the state of the FLEX bit in the Option Register on exit
from RESET. If the FLEX bit is a zero, the Flash Memory is
assumed to be empty and execution from the boot ROM
begins.
6.5.1 Key Instruction Set Features
6.3 TRUE IN-SYSTEM EMULATION
6.5.3 Many Single-Byte, Multi-Function Instructions
The COP8 instruction set utilizes many single-byte, multifunction instructions. This enables a single instruction to
accomplish multiple functions, such as DRSZ, DCOR, JID,
LD (Load) and X (Exchange) instructions with postincrementing and post-decrementing, to name just a few
examples. In many cases, the instruction set can simultaneously execute as many as three functions with the same
single-byte instruction.
JID: (Jump Indirect); Single byte instruction decodes external events and jumps to corresponding service routines
(analogous to “DO CASE” statements in higher level languages).
LAID: (Load Accumulator-Indirect); Single byte look up table
instruction provides efficient data path from the program
memory to the CPU. This instruction can be used for table
lookup and to read the entire program memory for checksum
calculations.
RETSK: (Return Skip); Single byte instruction allows return
from subroutine and skips next instruction. Decision to
branch can be made in the subroutine itself, saving code.
AUTOINC/DEC: (Auto-Increment/Auto-Decrement); These
instructions use the two memory pointers B and X to efficiently process a block of data (simplifying “FOR NEXT” or
other loop structures in higher level languages).
The COP8 family incorporates a unique combination of instruction set features, which provide designers with optimum
code efficiency and program memory utilization.
6.5.2 Single Byte/Single Cycle Code Execution
The efficiency is due to the fact that the majority of instructions are of the single byte variety, resulting in minimum
program space. Because compact code does not occupy a
substantial amount of program memory space, designers
can integrate additional features and functionality into the
microcontroller program memory space. Also, the majority
instructions executed by the device are single cycle, resulting in minimum program execution time. In fact, 77% of the
instructions are single byte single cycle, providing greater
code and I/O efficiency, and faster code execution.
On-chip emulation capability has been added which allows
the user to perform true in-system emulation using final
production boards and devices. This simplifies testing and
evaluation of software in real environmental conditions. The
user, merely by providing for a standard connector which can
be bypassed by jumpers on the final application board, can
provide for software and hardware debugging using actual
production units.
6.4 ARCHITECTURE
The COP8 family is based on a modified Harvard architecture, which allows data tables to be accessed directly from
program memory. This is very important with modern
microcontroller-based applications, since program memory
is usually ROM or EPROM, while data memory is usually
RAM. Consequently constant data tables need to be contained in non-volatile memory, so they are not lost when the
microcontroller is powered down. In a modified Harvard architecture, instruction fetch and memory data transfers can
be overlapped with a two stage pipeline, which allows the
next instruction to be fetched from program memory while
the current instruction is being executed using data memory.
This is not possible with a Von Neumann single-address bus
architecture.
The COP8 family supports a software stack scheme that
allows the user to incorporate many subroutine calls. This
capability is important when using High Level Languages.
With a hardware stack, the user is limited to a small fixed
number of stack levels.
6.5.4 Bit-Level Control
Bit-level control over many of the microcontroller’s I/O ports
provides a flexible means to ease layout concerns and save
board space. All members of the COP8 family provide the
ability to set, reset and test any individual bit in the data
memory address space, including memory-mapped I/O ports
and associated registers.
6.5 INSTRUCTION SET
In today’s 8-bit microcontroller application arena cost/
performance, flexibility and time to market are several of the
key issues that system designers face in attempting to build
www.national.com
8
troller users try to avoid using large packages to get the I/O
needed. Large packages take valuable board space and
increase device cost, two trade-offs that microcontroller designs can ill afford.
(Continued)
6.5.5 Register Set
Three memory-mapped pointers handle register indirect addressing and software stack pointer functions. The memory
data pointers allow the option of post-incrementing or postdecrementing with the data movement instructions (LOAD/
EXCHANGE). Fifteen (15) memory-mapped registers allow
designers to optimize the precise implementation of certain
specific instructions.
The COP8 family offers a wide range of packages to mnimize the need for unused pins.
6.6 PACKAGING/PIN EFFICIENCY
Real estate and board configuration considerations demand
maximum space and pin efficiency, particularly given today’s
high integration and small product form factors. Microcon-

Note 2: tC = Instruction cycle time (Clock input frequency divided by 10).
Note 3: Maximum rate of voltage change must be < 0.5 V/ms.
Note 4: Supply and IDLE currents are measured with CKI driven with a square wave Oscillator, inputs connected to VCC and outputs driven low but not connected
to a load.
Note 5: The HALT mode will stop CKI from oscillating in the R/C and the Crystal configurations. CKI is TRI-STATE. Measurement of IDD HALT is done with device
neither sourcing nor sinking current; with L. F, C, G0, and G2–G5 programmed as low outputs and not driving a load; all outputs programmed low and not driving
a load; all inputs tied to VCC; WATCHDOG and clock monitor disabled. Parameter refers to HALT mode entered via setting bit 7 of the G Port data register.
Note 6: The ACCESS.Bus interface of the COP8TAB9/TAC9 device implements and meets the timings necessary for interface to the I2C and SMBus protocols at
logic levels. The bus drivers are designed with open-drain outputs, as required for proper bidirectional operation. The device will not meet the AC timing and
current/voltage drive requirements of the full bus specifications.

with fewer external components and lower costs. Below is
the general description of all available pins.
VCC and GND are the power supply pins.
Users of the LLP package are cautioned to be aware that the
central metal area and the pin 1 index mark on the bottom of
the package may be internally connected to GND. See figure
below:
9.0 Pin Descriptions
The COP8TAB9/TAC9 I/O structure enables designers to
reconfigure the microcontroller’s I/O functions with a single
instruction. Each individual I/O pin can be independently
configured as output pin low, output high, input with high
impedance or input with weak pull-up device. A typical example is the use of I/O pins as the keyboard matrix input
lines. The input lines can be programmed with internal weak
pull-ups so that the input lines read logic high when the keys
are all open. With a key closure, the corresponding input line
will read a logic zero since the weak pull-up can easily be
overdriven. When the key is released, the internal weak
pull-up will pull the input line back to logic high. This eliminates the need for external pull-up resistors. The high current options are available for driving LEDs, motors and

C2 Multi-Input Wake-Up
(Continued)
C1 Multi-Input Wake-Up
C0 Multi-Input Wake-Up
Port G is an 8-bit port. Pin G0, G2–G5 are bi-directional I/O
ports. Pin G6 is always a general purpose Hi-Z input. All G
pins have Schmitt Triggers on their inputs. Pin G1 serves as
the dedicated WATCHDOG output with weak pull-up if
the WATCHDOG feature is selected by the Option register. The pin is a general purpose I/O, if WATCHDOG
feature is not selected. If WATCHDOG feature is selected,
bit 1 of the Port G configuration and data register does not
have any effect on Pin G1 setup. Pin G7 is either input or
output depending on the oscillator option selected. With the
crystal oscillator option selected, G7 serves as the dedicated
output pin for the CKO clock output. With the internal R/C or
the external oscillator option selected, G7 serves as a general purpose Hi-Z input pin and is also used to bring the
device out of HALT mode with a low to high transition on G7.
Since G6 is an input only pin and G7 is the dedicated CKO
clock output pin (crystal clock option) or general purpose
input (R/C or external clock option), the associated bits in the
data and configuration registers for G6 and G7 are used for
special purpose functions as outlined below. Reading the G6
and G7 data bits will return zeros.
20047520
FIGURE 5. LLP Package Bottom View
CKI is the clock input. This pin can be connected (in conjunction with CKO) to an external crystal circuit to form a
crystal oscillator, to an external resistor for RC oscillator
operation or to an external clock. See Oscillator Description
section.
RESET is the master reset input. See Reset description
section.
The device contains up to five bidirectional 8-bit I/O ports (C,
F, G, J and L), where each individual bit may be independently configured as an input (Schmitt trigger inputs on all
ports), output or TRI-STATE under program control. Three
data memory address locations are allocated for each of
these I/O ports. Each I/O port has three associated 8-bit
memory mapped registers, the CONFIGURATION register,
the output DATA register and the Pin input register. (See the
memory map for the various addresses associated with the
I/O ports.) Figure 6 shows the I/O port configurations. The
DATA and CONFIGURATION registers allow for each port bit
to be individually configured under software control as
shown below:

The device will be placed in the HALT mode by writing a “1”

Port G Data Register.
Writing a “1” to bit 6 of the Port G Configuration Register
enables the MICROWIRE/PLUS to operate with the alternate phase of the SK clock. The G7 configuration bit, if set

9.1 EMULATION CONNECTION
Connection to the emulation system is made via a 2 x 7
connector which interrupts the continuity of the RESET, G0,
G1, G2 and G3 signals between the COP8 device and the
rest of the target system (as shown in Figure 9). This connector can be designed into the production pc board and can
be replaced by jumpers or signal traces when emulation is
no longer necessary. The emulator will replicate all functions
of G0 - G3 and RESET. For proper operation, no connection
should be made on the device side of the emulator connector.

The architecture of the device is a modified Harvard architecture. With the Harvard architecture, the program memory
(Flash) is separate from the data store memory (RAM). Both
Program Memory and Data Memory have their own separate
addressing space with separate address buses. The architecture, though based on the Harvard architecture, permits
transfer of data from Flash Memory to RAM.

10.0 Functional Description
10.2 PROGRAM MEMORY
The program memory consists of 4096 bytes of Flash
Memory. These bytes may hold program instructions or constant data (data tables for the LAID instruction, jump vectors
for the JID instruction, and interrupt vectors for the VIS
instruction). The program memory is addressed by the 15-bit
program counter (PC). All interrupts in the device vector to
program memory location 00FF Hex. The program memory
reads 00 Hex in the erased state. Program execution starts
at location 0 after RESET.
(Continued)
There are five CPU registers:
A is the 8-bit Accumulator Register
PC is the 15-bit Program Counter Register
PU is the upper 7 bits of the program counter (PC)
PL is the lower 8 bits of the program counter (PC)
B is an 8-bit RAM address pointer, which can be optionally
post auto incremented or decremented.
If a Return instruction is executed when the SP contains 6F
(hex), instruction execution will continue from Program
Memory location 7FFF (hex). If location 7FFF is accessed by
an instruction fetch, the Flash Memory will return a value of
00. This is the opcode for the INTR instruction and will cause
a Software Trap.
For the purpose of erasing and rewriting the Flash Memory,
it is organized in pages of 512 bytes as shown in Table 1.
X is an 8-bit alternate RAM address pointer, which can be
optionally post auto incremented or decremented.
SP is the 8-bit stack pointer, which points to the subroutine/
interrupt stack (in RAM). With reset, the SP is initialized to
RAM address 06F Hex. The SP is decremented as items are
pushed onto the stack. SP points to the next available location on the stack.
All the CPU registers are memory mapped with the exception of the Accumulator (A) and the Program Counter (PC).

10.3 DATA MEMORY
The data memory address space includes the on-chip RAM
and data registers, the I/O registers (Configuration, Data and
Pin), the control registers, the MICROWIRE/PLUS SIO shift
register, ACCESS.Bus Interface and the various registers
and counters associated with the timer, T1. Data memory is
addressed directly by the instruction or indirectly by the B, X
and SP pointers.
The format of the Option register is as follows:
The data memory consists of 128 bytes of RAM. Sixteen
bytes of RAM are mapped as “registers” at addresses 0F0 to
0FF Hex. These registers can be loaded immediately, and
also decremented and tested with the DRSZ (decrement
register and skip if zero) instruction. The memory pointer
registers X, SP and B are memory mapped into this space at
address locations 0FC to 0FE Hex respectively, with the
other registers being available for general usage.
The instruction set permits any bit in memory to be set, reset
or tested. All I/O and registers (except A and PC) are
memory mapped; therefore, I/O bits and register bits can be
directly and individually set, reset and tested. The accumulator (A) bits can also be directly and individually tested.
Note: RAM contents are undefined upon power-up.

10.4 OPTION REGISTER
The Option register, located at address 0x0FFF (hex) or
0x07FF (hex) in the Flash Program Memory, is used to
configure the user selectable security, WATCHDOG, HALT
and Oscillator selection options. The register can be programmed only in external Flash Memory programming or
ISP Programming modes. Therefore, the register must be
programmed at the same time as the program memory. The
contents of the Option register shipped from the factory read

and cannot be rewritten without first erasing the entire last
page of Flash Memory.
10.6 RESET
The device is initialized when the RESET pin is pulled low or
the On-chip Power-On Reset is activated.
The COP8 assembler defines a special ROM section type,
CONF, into which the Option Register data may be coded.
The Option Register is programmed automatically by programmers that are certified by National.
The user needs to ensure that the FLEX bit will be set when
the device is programmed.
The following examples illustrate the declaration of the Option Register.

10.5 SECURITY
The device has a security feature which, when enabled,
prevents external reading of the Flash program memory. The
security bit in the Option Register determines, whether security is enabled or disabled. If the security feature is disabled, the contents of the internal Flash Memory may be
read by external programmers or by the built in
MICROWIRE/PLUS serial interface ISP. Security must be
enforced by the user when the contents of the Flash
Memory are accessed via the user ISP.
If the security feature is enabled, then any attempt to externally read the contents of the Flash Memory will result in the
value FF (hex) being read from all program locations (except
the Option Register). In addition, with the security feature
enabled, the write operation to the Flash program memory
and Option Register is inhibited. Page Erases are also inhibited when the security feature is enabled. The Option Register is readable regardless of the state of the security bit by
accessing location FFFF (hex). Mass Erase Operations are
possible regardless of the state of the security bit.
The security bit can be erased only by a Mass Erase of the
entire contents of the Flash unless Flash operation is under
the control of User ISP functions.
Note: The actual memory address of the Option Register is
dependent on the Flash Memory size and is defined in Table

tC. After the underflow, the logic is designed such that the
Power On Reset circuit will generate no additional internal
resets as long as VCC remains above 2.0V.
(Continued)
Monitor error following reset if the clock has not reached
the minimum specified frequency at the termination of
reset. A Clock Monitor error will cause an active low output
on pin G1. This error output will continue until 16–32 T0
clock cycles following the clock frequency reaching the
minimum specified value, at which time the G1 output will
go high.
Note: The POR feature of the COP8TAB9/TAC9 is not intended to function as
a brownout detector. A brownout condition is reached whenever VCC
of the device goes below the minimum guaranteed operating conditions. The minimum guaranteed operating conditions are defined in the
Electrical Specifications. We strongly recommend the use of an external supervisory circuit which ensures that the COP8 device is held in
the RESET state until Vcc has recovered to the minimum operating
conditions as stated above.
The contents of data registers and RAM are unknown following the on-chip reset.
10.6.1 External Reset
The RESET input, when pulled low, initializes the device.
The RESET pin must be held low for a minimum of one
instruction cycle to guarantee a valid reset. An R/C circuit on
the RESET pin with a delay 5 times (5x) greater than the
power supply rise time is recommended. Reset should also
be long enough to ensure crystal start-up upon Power-Up.
RESET may also be used to cause an exit from the HALT
mode.
Note: Flash memory may be non-volatile, but it is not invulnerable. Any
controller which features the capability for the software to modify the
contents of the Flash memory is susceptible to inadvertent writes or
erases any time VCC is below the minimum guaranteed operating
conditions, the clock is running and the device is not held in Reset. For
this reason, we recommend the use of external brownout detection
any time VCC drops below the minimum guaranteed VCC/Frequency
operating conditions.
A recommended reset circuit for this device is shown in
Figure 11.

10.7 OSCILLATOR CIRCUITS
There are five clock oscillator options available: fully internal
R/C Oscillator, R/C Oscillator with external frequency determination resistor, Crystal Oscillator with or without on-chip
bias resistor and External Oscillator. The oscillator feature is
selected by programming the Option Byte, which is summarized in Table 2.
FIGURE 11. Reset Circuit Using External Reset
10.6.2 On-Chip Power-On Reset
The device generates an internal reset as VCC rises to a
voltage level above 2.0V. The on-chip reset circuitry is able
to detect both fast and slow rise times on VCC (VCC rise time
between 20 µs and 10 ms).
Under no circumstances should the RESET pin be allowed
to float. If the on-chip Power-On Reset feature is being used,
RESET pin should be connected to VCC , either directly or
through a pull-up resistor. If forced operation from the Boot
ROM is anticipated, a pull-up resistor should always be used
so that the ISP circuit can override the RESET circuit and
force the RESET pin low. The output of the power-on reset
detector will always preset the Idle timer to 00FF(256 tC). At
this time, the internal reset will be generated.
The internal reset will not be turned off until the Idle timer
underflows. The internal reset will perform the same functions as external reset. The user is responsible for ensuring
that VCC is at the minimum level for operating within the 256

The device features an R/C oscillator with two modes of
operation:
1. R/C with internal R operating at a fixed frequency (R/C
mode)
2. R/C with external frequency control resistor (R/C+R
mode).
If the Oscillator Selection bits of the Option Byte remain
unprogrammed (equal to zero), the internal R/C Oscillator
mode will be selected. In internal R/C oscillation mode, CKI
may be left unconnected, while G7/CKO is available as a
general purpose input G7 and/or HALT control. The internal
R/C oscillator has on-chip resistor and capacitor for predetermined R/C oscillator frequency operation. The predetermined frequency is 10 MHz ± 20% for temperature range of
−40˚C to +85˚C.

The R/C Oscillator with external frequency control resistor
mode (R/C+R) can be selected by programming Option Bit 3
to 1 and Option Bits 6 and 4 to 0. In R/C+R mode, the
frequency of oscillation is controlled by the current through a
resistor connected from the CKI pin to GND. G7/CKO is
available as a general purpose input G7 and/or HALT control. The maximum frequency is 10 MHz ± 20% for temperature range of −40˚C to +85˚C. For lower frequencies, an
external resistor should be connected between CKI and
GND. PC board trace length on the CKI pin should be kept
as short as possible.
Table 3 shows the oscillator frequency as a function of
approximate external resistance on the CKI pin. Figure 16
shows the R/C oscillator configuration.

The device is equipped with a programmable clock prescaler

CLKPS register, the user can divide the input oscillator clock
by an integer multiple (1 — 256) and reduce the CPU clock
frequency. The format of the CLKPS Register is shown in
Table 5. The value written to the CLKPS register is one less
than the desired divider. A value of 0 (zero) written to the
CLKPS register yields a CPU clock equal to the input clock
frequency. A value of 255 written to the CLKPS register
yields a CPU clock with a period equal to 256 input clock
periods.

As described in Section 10.4 OPTION REGISTER, there is a
bit, FLEX, that controls whether the device exits RESET
executing from the Flash memory or the Boot ROM. The
user must program the FLEX bit as appropriate for the
application. In the erased state, the FLEX bit = 0 and the
device will power-up executing from Boot ROM. When FLEX
= 0, this assumes that either the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP
routine or external programming is being used to program
the device. If using the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine, the
software in the boot ROM will monitor the MICROWIRE/
PLUS for commands to program the Flash memory. When
programming the Flash program memory is complete, the
FLEX bit will have to be programmed to a 1 and the device
will have to be reset, either by pulling external Reset to
ground or by a MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP EXIT command,
before execution from Flash program memory will occur.
If FLEX = 1, upon exiting Reset, the device will begin executing from location 0000 in the Flash program memory.
The assumption, here, is that either the application is not
using ISP, is using MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP by jumping to it
within the application code, or is using a customized ISP
routine. If a customized ISP routine is being used, then it
must be programmed into the Flash memory by means of
the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP or external programming as
described in the preceding paragraph.

11.0 In-System Programming
11.1 INTRODUCTION
This device provides the capability to program the program
memory while installed in an application board. This feature
is called In System Programming (ISP). It provides a means
of ISP by using the MICROWIRE/PLUS, or the user can
provide his own, customized ISP routine. The factory installed ISP uses the MICROWIRE/PLUS port. The user can
provide his own ISP routine that uses any of the capabilities
of the device, such as ACCESS.Bus, parallel port, etc. The
user is cautioned, however, to remove all calls to Boot ROM
functions prior to submission of code for ROM generation
and production in COP8TAx5 devices.
11.3 REGISTERS
There are six registers required to support ISP: Address
Register Hi byte (ISPADHI), Address Register Low byte
(ISPADLO), Read Data Register (ISPRD), Write Data Register (ISPWR), Write Timing Register (PGMTIM), and the
Control Register (ISPCNTRL). The ISPCNTRL Register is
not available to the user. None of these six registers, which
support ISP, have been implemented in the COP8TAx5 ROM
based devices.
11.2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The organization of the ISP feature consists of the user
Flash program memory, the factory boot ROM, and some
registers dedicated to performing the ISP function. See Figure 17 for a simplified block diagram. The factory installed
ISP that uses MICROWIRE/PLUS is located in the Boot
ROM. The size of the Boot ROM is 1k bytes and also
contains code to facilitate in system emulation capability. If a
user chooses to write an application specific ISP routine, it
must be located in the Flash program memory.
11.3.1 ISP Address Registers
The address registers (ISPADHI & ISPADLO) are used to
specify the address of the byte of data being written or read.
For page erase operations, the address of the beginning of
the page should be loaded. For mass erase operations,
0000 must be placed into the address registers. When reading the Option register, 07FF (hex) should be placed into the
address registers of COP8TAB9 devices and 0FFF (hex)

should be placed into the address registers of COP8TAC9
devices. Registers ISPADHI and ISPADLO are cleared to 00
on Reset.
Note: The actual memory address of the Option Register is
0x0FFF (hex), however the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routines
require the address FFFF (hex) to be used to read the
Option Register when the Flash Memory is secured.

11.3.4 ISP Write Timing Register
TABLE 6. High Byte of ISP Address
The Write Timing Register (PGMTIM) is used to control the
width of the timing pulses for write and erase operations. The
value to be written into this register is dependent on the
frequency of CKI and is shown in Table 10. This register
must be written before any write or erase operation can take
place. It only needs to be loaded once, for each value of CKI
frequency. The MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine that is resident in the boot ROM requires that this register be defined
prior to any access to the Flash memory. Refer to Section
11.7 MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP for more information on available ISP commands. On Reset, the PGMTIM register is
loaded with the value that corresponds to 10 MHz frequency
for CKI. The best choice for value of PGMTIM will center the
operating frequency in the CKI Frequency Range.

the Flex bit has been erased by specific Page Erase or Mass
Erase ISP commands, execution will start from location 0000
in the Flash program memory. The forced entry to
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP mode will not erase either the Flex
or the Security bit in the Option Register. The Security bit, if
set, can only be erased by a Mass Erase of the entire
contents of the Flash Memory unless under the control of
User ISP routines in the Application Program.
(Continued)
11.4 MANEUVERING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN
FLASH MEMORY AND BOOT ROM
When using ISP, at some point, it will be necessary to
maneuver between the Flash program memory and the Boot
ROM, even when using customized ISP routines. This is
because it’s not possible to execute from the Flash program
memory while it’s being programmed.
Two instructions are available to perform the jumping back
and forth: Jump to Boot (JSRB) and Return to Flash (RETF).
The JSRB instruction is used to jump from Flash memory to
Boot ROM, and the RETF is used to return from the Boot
ROM back to the Flash program memory. See Section 19.0
Instruction Set for specific details on the operation of these
instructions.
The MICROWIRE/PLUS routine in Boot ROM monitors the
G6 input, waits for it to go low, debounces it, and then
enables the ISP routine. The user may wish to disconnect
other circuitry while RESET, G0, G2 and the MICROWIRE/
PLUS pins are in use for ISP.
The correct sequence to be used to force execution from
Boot ROM is :
1. Apply VCC to the device.
2. Pull RESET Low.
3. Using G2 as a shift clock, shift a value of 5E38AC(hex)
into the G0 pin least significant bit first.
The JSRB instruction must be used in conjunction with the
Key register. This is to prevent jumping to the Boot ROM in
the event of run-away software. For the JSRB instruction to
actually jump to the Boot ROM, the Key bit must be set. This
is done by writing the value shown in Table 11 to the Key
register. The Key is a 6 bit key and if the key matches, the
KEY bit will be set for 8 instruction cycles. The JSRB instruction must be executed while the KEY bit is set. If the KEY
does not match, then the KEY bit will not be set and the
JSRB will jump to the specified location in the Flash memory.
In emulation mode, if a breakpoint is encountered while the
KEY is set, the counter that counts the instruction cycles will
be frozen until the breakpoint condition is cleared. If an
interrupt occurs while the key is set, the key will expire
before interrupt service is complete. It is recommended
that the software globally disable interrupts before setting the key and re-enable interrupts on completion of
Boot ROM execution. The Key register is a memory
mapped register. Its format when writing is shown in Table
11.
4.
5.
11.6 RETURN TO FLASH MEMORY WITHOUT
HARDWARE RESET
After programming the entire program memory, including
options, it is necessary to exit the Boot ROM and return to
the Flash program memory for program execution. Upon
receipt and completion of the EXIT command through the
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP, the ISP code will reset the part and
begin execution from the Flash program memory as described in the Reset section. This assumes that the FLEX bit
in the Option register was programmed to 1.
11.7 MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP
National Semiconductor provides a program, which is available from our web site at www.national.com/cop8, that is
capable of programming a device from the parallel port of a
PC. The software accepts manually input commands and is
capable of downloading standard Intel HEX Format files.

Users who wish to write their own MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP
host software should refer to the COP8 FLASH ISP User
Manual, available from the same web site. This document
includes details of command format and delays necessary
between command bytes.
The MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP supports the following features
and commands:
• Write a value to the ISP Write Timing Register. NOTE:
This must be the first command after entering
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP mode.
• Erase the entire Flash program memory (mass erase).
• Erase a page at a specified address.
Bits 7–2: Key value that must be written to set the KEY bit.
Bits 1–0: Don’t care.
11.5 FORCED EXECUTION FROM BOOT ROM
When the user is developing a customized ISP routine, code
lockups due to software errors may be encountered. The
normal, and preferred, method to recover from these conditions is to reprogram the device with the corrected code by
either an external parallel programmer or the emulation
tools. As a last resort, when this equipment is not available,
there is a hardware method to get out of these lockups and
force execution from the Boot ROM MICROWIRE/PLUS
routine. The customer will then be able to erase the Flash
Memory code and start over.
The method to force this condition is to shift a 24 bit code
into the G0 pin, using the G2 pin as a shift clock, while Reset
is activated. This special condition will bypass checking the
state of the Flex bit in the Option Register and will start
execution from location 0000 in the Boot ROM. In this state,
the user can input the appropriate commands, using
MICROWIRE/PLUS, to erase the Flash program memory
and reprogram it. If the device is subsequently reset before
• Read Option register.
• Read a byte from a specified address.
• Write a byte to a specified address.
• Read multiple bytes starting at a specified address.
• Write multiple bytes starting at a specified address.
• Exit ISP and return execution to Flash program memory.
The following table lists the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP commands and provides information on required parameters and
return values.

The device contains a very versatile set of timers (T0 and
T1). Timer T1 and associated autoreload/capture registers
power up containing random data.
12.1 TIMER T0 (IDLE TIMER)
The device supports applications that require maintaining
real time and low power with the IDLE mode. This IDLE
mode support is furnished by the IDLE Timer T0, which is a
16-bit timer. The user cannot read or write to the IDLE Timer
T0, which is a count down timer.
In order for an interrupt to be generated, the IDLE Timer
interrupt enable bit T0EN must be set, and the GIE (Global
Interrupt Enable) bit must also be set. The T0PND flag and
T0EN bit are bits 5 and 4 of the ICNTRL register, respectively. The interrupt can be used for any purpose. Typically, it
is used to perform a task upon exit from the IDLE mode. For
more information on the IDLE mode, refer to Section 13.2
IDLE MODE.
The clock to the IDLE Timer is the instruction cycle clock
(one-tenth of the CKI frequency).
In addition to its time base function, the Timer T0 supports
the following functions:
• Exit out of the Idle Mode (See Idle Mode description)
The Idle Timer period is selected by bits 0–2 of the ITMR
register Bit 3 of the ITMR Register is reserved and should
not be used as a software flag. Bits 4 through 7 of the ITMR
Register are reserved and must be zero.
• WATCHDOG logic (See WATCHDOG description)
• Start up delay out of the HALT mode
• Start up delay from POR
Figure 18 is a functional block diagram showing the structure
of the IDLE Timer and its associated interrupt logic.

setting the T0PND bit. The user is advised to disable IDLE
Timer interrupts prior to changing the value of the ITSEL bits
of the ITMR Register and then clear the T0PND bit before
attempting to synchronize operation to the IDLE Timer.
The ITSEL bits of the ITMR register are cleared on Reset
and the Idle Timer period is reset to 4,096 instruction cycles.

Bits 11 through 15 of the ITMR register can be selected for
triggering the IDLE Timer interrupt. Each time the selected
bit underflows (every 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k or 64k selected
clocks), the IDLE Timer interrupt pending bit T0PND is set,
thus generating an interrupt (if enabled), and bit 6 of the Port
G data register is reset, thus causing an exit from the IDLE
mode if the device is in that mode.

interrupt when a timer underflow causes the R1B register to

will disable the associated interrupts.
(Continued)
12.2 TIMER T1
One of the main functions of a microcontroller is to provide
timing and counting capability for real-time control tasks. The
COP8 family offers a very versatile 16-bit timer/counter
structure, and two supporting 16-bit autoreload/capture registers (R1A and R1B), optimized to reduce software burdens
in real-time control applications. The timer block has two pins
associated with it, T1A and T1B. Pin T1A supports I/O required by the timer block, while pin T1B is an input to the
timer block.
Either or both of the timer underflow interrupts may be
enabled. This gives the user the flexibility of interrupting
once per PWM period on either the rising or falling edge of
the PWM output. Alternatively, the user may choose to interrupt on both edges of the PWM output.
The timer block has three operating modes: Processor Independent PWM mode, External Event Counter mode, and
Input Capture mode.
The control bits T1C3, T1C2, and T1C1 allow selection of the
different modes of operation.
12.3 MODE 1. PROCESSOR INDEPENDENT PWM
MODE
One of the timer’s operating modes is the Processor Independent PWM mode. In this mode, the timer generates a
“Processor Independent” PWM signal because once the
timer is setup, no more action is required from the CPU
which translates to less software overhead and greater
throughput. The user software services the timer block only
when the PWM parameters require updating. This capability
is provided by the fact that the timer has two separate 16-bit
reload registers. One of the reload registers contains the
“ON” timer while the other holds the “OFF” time. By contrast,
a microcontroller that has only a single reload register requires an additional software to update the reload value
(alternate between the on-time/off-time).
The timer can generate the PWM output with the width and
duty cycle controlled by the values stored in the reload
registers. The reload registers control the countdown values
and the reload values are automatically written into the timer
when it counts down through 0, generating interrupt on each
reload. Under software control and with minimal overhead,
the PMW outputs are useful in controlling motors, triacs, the
intensity of displays, and in providing inputs for data acquisition and sine wave generators.
In this mode, the timer T1 counts down at a fixed rate of tC.
Upon every underflow the timer is alternately reloaded with
the contents of supporting registers, R1A and R1B. The very
first underflow of the timer causes the timer to reload from
the register R1A. Subsequent underflows cause the timer to
be reloaded from the registers alternately beginning with the
register R1B.
The T1 Timer control bits, T1C3, T1C2 and T1C1 set up the
timer for PWM mode operation.
Figure 19 shows a block diagram of the timer in PWM mode.
The underflows can be programmed to toggle the T1A output
pin. The underflows can also be programmed to generate
interrupts.
Underflows from the timer are alternately latched into two
pending flags, T1PNDA and T1PNDB. The user must reset
these pending flags under software control. Two control
enable flags, T1ENA and T1ENB, allow the interrupts from
the timer underflow to be enabled or disabled. Setting the
timer enable flag T1ENA will cause an interrupt when a timer
underflow causes the R1A register to be reloaded into the
timer. Setting the timer enable flag T1ENB will cause an

FIGURE 19. Timer in PWM Mode
12.4 MODE 2. EXTERNAL EVENT COUNTER MODE
This mode is quite similar to the processor independent
PWM mode described above. The main difference is that the
timer, T1, is clocked by the input signal from the T1A pin. The
T1 timer control bits, T1C3, T1C2 and T1C1 allow the timer
to be clocked either on a positive or negative edge from the
T1A pin. Underflows from the timer are latched into the
T1PNDA pending flag. Setting the T1ENA control flag will
cause an interrupt when the timer underflows.
In this mode the input pin T1B can be used as an independent positive edge sensitive interrupt input if the T1ENB
control flag is set. The occurrence of a positive edge on the
T1B input pin is latched into the T1PNDB flag.
Figure 20 shows a block diagram of the timer in External
Event Counter mode.
Note: The PWM output is not available in this mode since the T1A pin is
being used as the counter input clock.

fied either as a positive or a negative edge. The trigger
condition for each input pin can be specified independently.
The trigger conditions can also be programmed to generate
interrupts. The occurrence of the specified trigger condition
on the T1A and T1B pins will be respectively latched into the
pending flags, T1PNDA and T1PNDB. The control flag
T1ENA allows the interrupt on T1A to be either enabled or
disabled. Setting the T1ENA flag enables interrupts to be
generated when the selected trigger condition occurs on the
T1A pin. Similarly, the flag T1ENB controls the interrupts
from the T1B pin.
(Continued)
Underflows from the timer can also be programmed to generate interrupts. Underflows are latched into the timer T1C0
pending flag (the T1C0 control bit serves as the timer underflow interrupt pending flag in the Input Capture mode). Consequently, the T1C0 control bit should be reset when entering the Input Capture mode. The timer underflow interrupt is
enabled with the T1ENA control flag. When a T1A interrupt
occurs in the Input Capture mode, the user must check both
the T1PNDA and T1C0 pending flags in order to determine
whether a T1A input capture or a timer underflow (or both)
caused the interrupt.
Figure 21 shows a block diagram of the timer in Input Capture mode.

FIGURE 20. Timer in External Event Counter Mode
12.5 MODE 3. INPUT CAPTURE MODE
The device can precisely measure external frequencies or
time external events by placing the timer block, T1, in the
input capture mode. In this mode, the reload registers serve
as independent capture registers, capturing the contents of
the timer when an external event occurs (transition on the
timer input pin). The capture registers can be read while
maintaining count, a feature that lets the user measure
elapsed time and time between events. By saving the timer
value when the external event occurs, the time of the external event is recorded. Most microcontrollers have a latency
time because they cannot determine the timer value when
the external event occurs. The capture register eliminates
the latency time, thereby allowing the applications program
to retrieve the timer value stored in the capture register.
In this mode, the timer T1 is constantly running at the fixed tC
rate. The two registers, R1A and R1B, act as capture registers. Each register acts in conjunction with a pin. The register
R1A acts in conjunction with the T1A pin and the register
R1B acts in conjunction with the T1B pin.
The timer value gets copied over into the register when a
trigger event occurs on its corresponding pin. Control bits,
T1C3, T1C2 and T1C1, allow the trigger events to be speci-

13.0 Power Save Modes
Today, the proliferation of battery-operated based applications has placed new demands on designers to drive power
consumption down. Battery-operated systems are not the
only type of applications demanding low power. The power
budget constraints are also imposed on those consumer/
industrial applications where well regulated and expensive
power supply costs cannot be tolerated. Such applications
rely on low cost and low power supply voltage derived directly from the “mains” by using voltage rectifier and passive
components. Low power is demanded even in automotive
applications, due to increased vehicle electronics content.
This is required to ease the burden from the car battery. Low
power 8-bit microcontrollers supply the smarts to control
battery-operated, consumer/industrial, and automotive applications.
The COP8TAx devices offer system designers a variety of
low-power consumption features that enable them to meet
the demanding requirements of today’s increasing range of
low-power applications. These features include low voltage
operation, low current drain, and power saving features such
as HALT, IDLE, and Multi-Input Wake-Up (MIWU).
The devices offer the user two power save modes of operation: HALT and IDLE. In the HALT mode, all microcontroller
www.national.com
tC
13.1 HALT MODE
The device can be placed in the HALT mode by writing a “1”
to the HALT flag (G7 data bit). All microcontroller activities,
including the clock and timers, are stopped. The WATCHDOG logic on the device is disabled during the HALT mode.
However, the clock monitor circuitry, if enabled, remains
active and will cause the WATCHDOG output pin (WDOUT)
to go low. If the HALT mode is used and the user does not
want to activate the WDOUT pin, the Clock Monitor should
be disabled after the device comes out of reset (resetting the
Clock Monitor control bit with the first write to the WDSVR
register). In the HALT mode, the power requirements of the
device are minimal and the applied voltage (VCC) may be
decreased to Vr (Vr = 2.0V) without altering the state of the
machine.
The device supports three different ways of exiting the HALT
mode. The first method of exiting the HALT mode is with the
Multi-Input Wake-Up feature on Port L and Port C. The
28
If an R/C clock option is being used, the fixed delay is
introduced optionally. A control bit, CLKDLY, mapped as
configuration bit G7, controls whether the delay is to be
introduced or not. The delay is included if CLKDLY is set,
and excluded if CLKDLY is reset. The CLKDLY bit is cleared
on reset.
The device has two options associated with the HALT mode.
The first option enables the HALT mode feature, while the
second option disables the HALT mode selected through bit
0 of the Option Byte. With the HALT mode enable option, the
device will enter and exit the HALT mode as described
above. With the HALT disable option, the device cannot be
placed in the HALT mode (writing a “1” to the HALT flag will
have no effect, the HALT flag will remain “0”).
(Continued)
second method is with a low to high transition on the CKO
(G7) pin. This method precludes the use of the crystal clock
configuration (since CKO becomes a dedicated output), and
so may only be used with an R/C clock configuration. The
third method of exiting the HALT mode is by pulling the
RESET pin low.
Since a crystal or ceramic resonator may be selected as the
oscillator, the Multi-Input Wake-Up signal is not allowed to
start the chip running immediately since crystal oscillators
and ceramic resonators have a delayed start up time to
reach full amplitude and frequency stability. The IDLE timer
is used to generate a fixed delay to ensure that the oscillator
has indeed stabilized before allowing instruction execution.
In this case, upon detecting a valid Multi-Input Wake-Up
signal, only the oscillator circuitry is enabled. The IDLE timer
is loaded with a value of 256 and is clocked with the tC
instruction cycle clock. The tC clock is derived by dividing the
oscillator clock down by a factor of 10. The Schmitt trigger
following the CKI inverter on the chip ensures that the IDLE
timer is clocked only when the oscillator has a sufficiently
large amplitude to meet the Schmitt trigger specifications.
This Schmitt trigger is not part of the oscillator closed loop.
The start-up time-out from the IDLE timer enables the clock
signals to be routed to the rest of the chip.
The WATCHDOG detector circuit is inhibited during the
HALT mode. However, the clock monitor circuit if enabled
remains active during HALT mode in order to ensure a clock
monitor error if the device inadvertently enters the HALT
mode as a result of a runaway program or power glitch.
If the device is placed in the HALT mode, with the R/C
oscillator selected, the clock input pin (CKI) is forced to a
logic high internally. With the crystal or external oscillator the
CKI pin is TRI-STATE.
20047534
FIGURE 22. Multi-Input Wake-Up from HALT
The user can enter the IDLE mode with the Timer T0 interrupt enabled. In this case, when the T0PND bit gets set, the
device will first execute the Timer T0 interrupt service routine
and then return to the instruction following the “Enter Idle
Mode” instruction.
Alternatively, the user can enter the IDLE mode with the
IDLE Timer T0 interrupt disabled. In this case, the device will
resume normal operation with the instruction immediately
following the “Enter IDLE Mode” instruction.
13.2 IDLE MODE
The device is placed in the IDLE mode by writing a “1” to the
IDLE flag (G6 data bit). In this mode, all activities, except the
associated on-board oscillator circuitry and the IDLE Timer
T0, are stopped.
As with the HALT mode, the device can be returned to
normal operation with a reset, or with a Multi-Input Wake-Up
from the L Port. Alternately, the microcontroller resumes
normal operation from the IDLE mode when the twelfth bit
(representing 4.096 ms at internal clock frequency of
10 MHz, tC = 1 µs) of the IDLE Timer toggles.
This toggle condition of the twelfth bit of the IDLE Timer T0 is
latched into the T0PND pending flag.
The user has the option of being interrupted with a transition
on the twelfth bit of the IDLE Timer T0. The interrupt can be
enabled or disabled via the T0EN control bit. Setting the
T0EN flag enables the interrupt and vice versa.
Note: It is necessary to program two NOP instructions following both the set
HALT mode and set IDLE mode instructions. These NOP instructions
are necessary to allow clock resynchronization following the HALT or
IDLE modes.

FIGURE 23. Wake-Up from IDLE
13.3 MULTI-INPUT WAKE-UP
The Multi-Input Wake-Up feature is used to exit from the
HALT and IDLE modes. In addition, the Multi-Input WakeUp/Interrupt feature may be used to generate up to 16
edge-selectable external interrupts on the 44-pin devices or
8 interrupts on the 20- and 28-pin devices. Figure 24 shows
the Multi-Input Wake-Up logic.
The Multi-Input Wake-Up feature uses the C and L ports.
(The 20- and 28-pin devices only have the L port.) Software
selects which port bit (or set of port bits) may cause the
device to exit the HALT or IDLE modes. The selection is
controlled by the CWKEN and LWKEN registers. These
registers are 8-bit read/write registers, which contain control
bits that correspond to the C and L port bits. Setting a
CWKEN or LWKEN bit enables a Wake-Up event or interrupt
from the associated C or L port pin.
If the ACCESS.Bus module is enabled, port pin L0 may also
be used to generate a Wake-Up event on ACCESS.Bus
activity. Please see the section on Section 17.0 ACCESS.Bus Interface for more information.
Software selects whether the trigger condition on the selected port pin is a positive edge (low-to-high transition) or a
negative edge (high-to-low transition). The trigger conditions
are selected in the CWKEDG and LWKEDG registers, which
are 8-bit control registers with bits corresponding to the C
and L port pins. Setting a trigger condition control bit selects
the negative edge, while clearing the bit selects the positive
edge.
The occurrence of a selected trigger condition is latched in
the pending registers called CWKPND and LWKPND. The
bits of these registers correspond to the C and L port pins.
These bits are set on the occurrence of the selected trigger
condition on the corresponding port pin, whether or not the
trigger condition is enabled in CWKEN or LWKEN. Software
has responsibility for clearing the pending bits before enabling them for Wake-Up events or interrupts. Any set pend-
www.national.com
ing bit in CWKPND or LWKPND remains set until cleared by
software. The device will not enter HALT or IDLE mode if any
Wake-Up input is both enabled and pending.
Changing a trigger condition control bit requires several
steps to avoid generating a spurious Wake-Up event or
interrupt as a side effect
• First, the corresponding CWKEN or LWKEN bit should be
cleared to disable any Wake-Up event or interrupt for that
port pin.
• Second, the trigger condition is selected in CWKEDG or
LWKEDG.
• Third, any spurious pending event is removed by clearing
the associated bit in CWKPND or LWKPND.
• Finally, the trigger is re-enabled by setting the associated
bit in CWKEN or LWKEN.
An example shows how software performs this procedure.
Assume the trigger condition for L port bit 5 is to be changed
from positive (low-to-high transition) to negative (high-to-low
transition), and bit 5 has previously been enabled for an
input interrupt. Software would execute the following instructions:
RBIT 5, LWKEN
; Disable MIWU Port L.5
SBIT 5, LWKEDG ; Change edge polarity
RBIT 5, LWKPND ; Reset pending flag
SBIT 5, LWKEN
; Enable MIWU Port L.5
If the C or L port pins have been used as outputs and then
changed to inputs using the Multi-Input Wake-Up feature, a
safe procedure should be used to avoid generating a spurious Wake-Up event or interrupt. After the selected C or L
port pins have been changed from output to input, the trigger
conditions are selected in CWKEDG or LWKEDG and the
pending bits in CWKPND or LWKPND are cleared. Finally,
the CWKEN or LWKEN bits are set to enable the desired
Wake-Up events or interrupts.
The same procedure should be used following reset, because the C and L port pins are left floating. The CWKPND
30
CWKEN and LWKEN are read/write registers that are
cleared at reset, so no Wake-Up events or interrupts are
enabled following reset. CWKEDG and LWKEDG are also
cleared at reset.
(Continued)
and LWKPND registers contain undefined values after reset,
so software should clear these bits after reset to ensure that
no spurious Wake-Up events or interrupts are left pending.

The device supports eleven vectored interrupts. Interrupt
sources include Timer 1, Timer 2, Timer T0, Multi-Input

All interrupts force a branch to location 00FF Hex in program
memory. The VIS instruction may be used to vector to the

FIGURE 25. Interrupt Block Diagram
14.2 MASKABLE INTERRUPTS
All interrupts other than the Software Trap are maskable.
Each maskable interrupt has an associated enable bit and
pending flag bit. The pending bit is set to 1 when the interrupt
condition occurs. The state of the interrupt enable bit, combined with the GIE bit determines whether an active pending
flag actually triggers an interrupt. All of the maskable interrupt pending and enable bits are contained in mapped control registers, and thus can be controlled by the software.
A maskable interrupt condition triggers an interrupt under the
following conditions:
enabled; if the pending bit is already set, it will immediately
trigger an interrupt. A maskable interrupt is active if its associated enable and pending bits are set.
An interrupt is an asychronous event which may occur before, during, or after an instruction cycle. Any interrupt which
occurs during the execution of an instruction is not acknowledged until the start of the next normally executed instruction. If the next normally executed instruction is to be
skipped, the skip is performed before the pending interrupt is
acknowledged.
At the start of interrupt acknowledgment, the following actions occur:
1. The GIE bit is automatically reset to zero, preventing any
subsequent maskable interrupt from interrupting the current service routine. This feature prevents one maskable
interrupt from interrupting another one being serviced.
2. The address of the instruction about to be executed is
pushed onto the stack.
3. The program counter (PC) is loaded with 00FF Hex,
causing a jump to that program memory location.
The device requires seven instruction cycles to perform the
actions listed above.
If the user wishes to allow nested interrupts, the interrupts
service routine may set the GIE bit to 1 by writing to the PSW
register, and thus allow other maskable interrupts to interrupt
the current service routine. If nested interrupts are allowed,
caution must be exercised. The user must write the program
in such a way as to prevent stack overflow, loss of saved
context information, and other unwanted conditions.
The interrupt service routine stored at location 00FF Hex
should use the VIS instruction to determine the cause of the
interrupt, and jump to the interrupt handling routine corre-
1.
2.
3.
The enable bit associated with that interrupt is set.
The GIE bit is set.
The device is not processing a non-maskable interrupt.
(If a non-maskable interrupt is being serviced, a
maskable interrupt must wait until that service routine is
completed.)
An interrupt is triggered only when all of these conditions are
met at the beginning of an instruction. If different maskable
interrupts meet these conditions simultaneously, the highestpriority interrupt will be serviced first, and the other pending
interrupts must wait.
Upon Reset, all pending bits, individual enable bits, and the
GIE bit are reset to zero. Thus, a maskable interrupt condition cannot trigger an interrupt until the program enables it by
setting both the GIE bit and the individual enable bit. When
enabling an interrupt, the user should consider whether or
not a previously activated (set) pending bit should be acknowledged. If, at the time an interrupt is enabled, any
previous occurrences of the interrupt should be ignored, the
associated pending bit must be reset to zero prior to enabling the interrupt. Otherwise, the interrupt may be simply

next priority interrupt is located at 0yE2 and 0yE3, and so
forth in increasing rank. The Software Trap has the highest
rand and its vector is always located at 0yFE and 0yFF. The
number of interrupts which can become active defines the
size of the table.
Table 14 shows the types of interrupts, the interrupt arbitration ranking, and the locations of the corresponding vectors
in the vector table.
The vector table should be filled by the user with the memory
locations of the specific interrupt service routines. For example, if the Software Trap routine is located at 0310 Hex,
then the vector location 0yFE and -0yFF should contain the
data 03 and 10 Hex, respectively. When a Software Trap
interrupt occurs and the VIS instruction is executed, the
program jumps to the address specified in the vector table.
(Continued)
sponding to the highest priority enabled and active interrupt.
Alternately, the user may choose to poll all interrupt pending
and enable bits to determine the source(s) of the interrupt. If
more than one interrupt is active, the user’s program must
decide which interrupt to service.
Within a specific interrupt service routine, the associated
pending bit should be cleared. This is typically done as early
as possible in the service routine in order to avoid missing
the next occurrence of the same type of interrupt event.
Thus, if the same event occurs a second time, even while the
first occurrence is still being serviced, the second occurrence will be serviced immediately upon return from the
current interrupt routine.
An interrupt service routine typically ends with an RETI
instruction. This instruction set the GIE bit back to 1, pops
the address stored on the stack, and restores that address to
the program counter. Program execution then proceeds with
the next instruction that would have been executed had
there been no interrupt. If there are any valid interrupts
pending, the highest-priority interrupt is serviced immediately upon return from the previous interrupt.
The interrupt sources in the vector table are listed in order of
rank, from highest to lowest priority. If two or more enabled
and pending interrupts are detected at the same time, the
one with the highest priority is serviced first. Upon return
from the interrupt service routine, the next highest-level
pending interrupt is serviced.
If the VIS instruction is executed, but no interrupts are enabled and pending, the lowest-priority interrupt vector is
used, and a jump is made to the corresponding address in
the vector table. This is an unusual occurrence and may be
the result of an error. It can legitimately result from a change
in the enable bits or pending flags prior to the execution of
the VIS instruction, such as executing a single cycle instruction which clears an enable flag at the same time that the
pending flag is set. It can also result, however, from inadvertent execution of the VIS command outside of the context
of an interrupt.
The default VIS interrupt vector can be useful for applications in which time critical interrupts can occur during the
servicing of another interrupt. Rather than restoring the program context (A, B, X, etc.) and executing the RETI instruction, an interrupt service routine can be terminated by returning to the VIS instruction. In this case, interrupts will be
serviced in turn until no further interrupts are pending and
the default VIS routine is started. After testing the GIE bit to
ensure that execution is not erroneous, the routine should
restore the program context and execute the RETI to return
to the interrupted program.
This technique can save up to fifty instruction cycles (tC), or
more, (100 µs at 10 MHz oscillator) of latency for pending
interrupts with a penalty of fewer than ten instruction cycles
if no further interrupts are pending.
To ensure reliable operation, the user should always use the
VIS instruction to determine the source of an interrupt. Although it is possible to poll the pending bits to detect the
source of an interrupt, this practice is not recommended. The
use of polling allows the standard arbitration ranking to be
altered, but the reliability of the interrupt system is compromised. The polling routine must individually test the enable
and pending bits of each maskable interrupt. If a Software
Trap interrupt should occur, it will be serviced last, even
though it should have the highest priority. Under certain
conditions, a Software Trap could be triggered but not serviced, resulting in an inadvertent “locking out” of all
maskable interrupts by the Software Trap pending flag.
Problems such as this can be avoided by using VIS
instruction.
Note: While executing from the Boot ROM for ISP or virtual
E2 operations, the hardware will disable interrupts from occurring. The hardware will leave the GIE bit in its current
state, and if set, the hardware interrupts will occur when
execution is returned to Flash Memory. Subsequent interrupts, during ISP operation, from the same interrupt source
will be lost.
14.3 VIS INSTRUCTION
The general interrupt service routine, which starts at address
00FF Hex, must be capable of handling all types of interrupts. The VIS instruction, together with an interrupt vector
table, directs the device to the specific interrupt handling
routine based on the cause of the interrupt.
VIS is a single-byte instruction, typically used at the very
beginning of the general interrupt service routine at address
00FF Hex, or shortly after that point, just after the code used
for context switching. The VIS instruction determines which
enabled and pending interrupt has the highest priority, and
causes an indirect jump to the address corresponding to that
interrupt source. The jump addresses (vectors) for all possible interrupts sources are stored in a vector table.
The vector table may be as long as 32 bytes (maximum of 16
vectors) and resides at the top of the 256-byte block containing the VIS instruction. However, if the VIS instruction is
at the very top of a 256-byte block (such as at 00FF Hex),
the vector table resides at the top of the next 256-byte block.
Thus, if the VIS instruction is located somewhere between
00FF and 01DF Hex (the usual case), the vector table is
located between addresses 01E0 and 01FF Hex. If the VIS
instruction is located between 01FF and 02DF Hex, then the
vector table is located between addresses 02E0 and 02FF
Hex, and so on.
Each vector is 15 bits long and points to the beginning of a
specific interrupt service routine somewhere in the 32-kbyte
memory space. Each vector occupies two bytes of the vector
table, with the higher-order byte at the lower address. The
vectors are arranged in order of interrupt priority. The vector
of the maskable interrupt with the lowest rank is located to
0yE0 (higher-order byte) and 0yE1 (lower-order byte). The

Note 7: y is a variable which represents the VIS block. VIS and the vector table must be located in the same 256-byte block except if VIS is located at the last
address of a block. In this case, the table must be in the next block.
14.3.1 VIS Execution
When the VIS instruction is executed it activates the arbitration logic. The arbitration logic generates an even number
between E0 and FE (E0, E2, E4, E6 etc....) depending on
which active interrupt has the highest arbitration ranking at
the time of the 1st cycle of VIS is executed. For example, if
the software trap interrupt is active, FE is generated. If the
external interrupt is active and the software trap interrupt is
not, then FA is generated and so forth. If no active interrupt
is pending, than E0 is generated. This number replaces the
lower byte of the PC. The upper byte of the PC remains
unchanged. The new PC is therefore pointing to the vector of
www.national.com
the active interrupt with the highest arbitration ranking. This
vector is read from program memory and placed into the PC
which is now pointed to the 1st instruction of the service
routine of the active interrupt with the highest arbitration
ranking.
Figure 26 illustrates the different steps performed by the VIS
instruction. Figure 27 shows a flowchart for the VIS instruction.
The non-maskable interrupt pending flag is cleared by the
RPND (Reset Non-Maskable Pending Bit) instruction (under
certain conditions) and upon RESET.

14.4 NON-MASKABLE INTERRUPT
Nothing can interrupt a Software Trap service routine except
for another Software Trap. The STPND can be reset only by
the RPND instruction or a chip Reset.
The Software Trap indicates an unusual or unknown error
condition. Generally, returning to normal execution at the
point where the Software Trap occurred cannot be done
reliably. Therefore, the Software Trap service routine should
re-initialize the stack pointer and perform a recovery procedure that re-starts the software at some known point, similar
to a device Reset, but not necessarily performing all the
same functions as a device Reset. The routine must also
execute the RPND instruction to reset the STPND flag.
Otherwise, all other interrupts will be locked out. To the
extent possible, the interrupt routine should record or indicate the context of the device so that the cause of the
Software Trap can be determined.
If the user wishes to return to normal execution from the
point at which the Software Trap was triggered, the user
must first execute RPND, followed by RETSK rather than
RETI or RET. This is because the return address stored on
the stack is the address of the INTR instruction that triggered
the interrupt. The program must skip that instruction in order
to proceed with the next one. Otherwise, an infinite loop of
Software Traps and returns will occur.
Programming a return to normal execution requires careful
consideration. If the Software Trap routine is interrupted by
another Software Trap, the RPND instruction in the service
routine for the second Software Trap will reset the STPND
flag; upon return to the first Software Trap routine, the
STPND flag will have the wrong state. This will allow
maskable interrupts to be acknowledged during the servicing
of the first Software Trap. To avoid problems such as this, the
14.4.1 Pending Flag
There is a pending flag bit associated with the non-maskable
Software Trap interrupt, called STPND. This pending flag is
not memory-mapped and cannot be accessed directly by the
software.
The pending flag is reset to zero when a device Reset
occurs. When the non-maskable interrupt occurs, the associated pending bit is set to 1. The interrupt service routine
should contain an RPND instruction to reset the pending flag
to zero. The RPND instruction always resets the STPND
flag.
14.4.2 Software Trap
The Software Trap is a special kind of non-maskable interrupt which occurs when the INTR instruction (used to acknowledge interrupts) is fetched from program memory and
placed in the instruction register. This can happen in a
variety of ways, usually because of an error condition. Some
examples of causes are listed below.
If the program counter incorrectly points to a memory location beyond the programmed Flash memory space, the unused memory location returns zeros which is interpreted as
the INTR instruction.
A Software Trap can be triggered by a temporary hardware
condition such as a brownout or power supply glitch.
The Software Trap has the highest priority of all interrupts.
When a Software Trap occurs, the STPND bit is set. The GIE
bit is not affected and the pending bit (not accessible by the
user) is used to inhibit other interrupts and to direct the
program to the ST service routine with the VIS instruction.

programming error or hardware condition (brownout, power
supply glitch, etc.) sets the STPND flag without providing a
way for it to be cleared, all other interrupts will be locked out.
To alleviate this condition, the user can use extra RPND
instructions in the main program and in the Watchdog service routine (if present). There is no harm in executing extra
RPND instructions in these parts of the program.

14.5 PORT C AND PORT L INTERRUPTS
Ports C and L provides the user with an additional sixteen
fully selectable, edge sensitive interrupts which are all vectored into the same service subroutine.
The interrupt from Ports C and L share logic with the
wake-up circuitry. The registers CWKEN and LWKEN allow
interrupts from Ports C and L to be individually enabled or
disabled. The register CWKEDG and LWKEDG specify the
trigger condition to be either a positive or a negative edge.
Finally, the registers CWKPND and LWKPND latch in the
pending trigger conditions.
terrupts, during ISP operation, from the same interrupt
source will be lost.
15.0 WATCHDOG/Clock Monitor
The devices contain a user selectable WATCHDOG and
clock monitor. The following section is applicable only if
WATCHDOG feature has been selected in the Option Byte.
The WATCHDOG is designed to detect the user program
getting stuck in infinite loops resulting in loss of program
control or “runaway” programs.
The WATCHDOG logic contains two separate service windows. While the user programmable upper window selects
the WATCHDOG service time, the lower window provides
protection against an infinite program loop that contains the
WATCHDOG service instruction.
The COP8TAx devices provide the added feature of a software trap that provides protection against stack overpops
and addressing locations outside valid user program space.
The Clock Monitor is used to detect the absence of a clock or
a very slow clock below a specified rate on the CKI pin.
The WATCHDOG consists of two independent logic blocks:
WD UPPER and WD LOWER. WD UPPER establishes the
upper limit on the service window and WD LOWER defines
the lower limit of the service window.
Servicing the WATCHDOG consists of writing a specific
value to a WATCHDOG Service Register named WDSVR
which is memory mapped in the RAM. This value is composed of three fields, consisting of a 2-bit Window Select, a
5-bit Key Data field, and the 1-bit Clock Monitor Select field.
Table 15 shows the WDSVR register.
The GIE (Global Interrupt Enable) bit enables the interrupt
function.
A control flag, LPEN, functions as a global interrupt enable
for Port C and Port L interrupts. Setting the LPEN flag will
enable interrupts and vice versa. A separate global pending
flag is not needed since the registers CWKPND and LWKPND are adequate.
Since Ports C and L are also used for waking the device out
of the HALT or IDLE modes, the user can elect to exit the
HALT or IDLE modes either with or without the interrupt
enabled. If he elects to disable the interrupt, then the device
will restart execution from the instruction immediately following the instruction that placed the microcontroller in the
HALT or IDLE modes. In the other case, the device will first
execute the interrupt service routine and then revert to normal operation.
14.6 INTERRUPT SUMMARY
The device uses the following types of interrupts, listed
below in order of priority:
1. The Software Trap non-maskable interrupt, triggered by
the INTR (00 opcode) instruction. The Software Trap is
acknowledged immediately. This interrupt service routine can be interrupted only by another Software Trap.
The Software Trap should end with two RPND instructions followed by a re-start procedure.
2. Maskable interrupts, triggered by an on-chip peripheral
block or an external device connected to the device.
Under ordinary conditions, a maskable interrupt will not
interrupt any other interrupt routine in progress. A
maskable interrupt routine in progress can be interrupted by the non-maskable interrupt request. A
maskable interrupt routine should end with an RETI
instruction or, prior to restoring context, should return to
execute the VIS instruction. This is particularly useful
when exiting long interrupt service routines if the time
between interrupts is short. In this case the RETI instruction would only be executed when the default VIS routine is reached.
3. While executing from the Boot ROM for ISP or virtual E2
operations, the hardware will disable interrupts from occurring. The hardware will leave the GIE bit in its current
state, and if set, the hardware interrupts will occur when
execution is returned to Flash Memory. Subsequent in-

The lower limit of the service window is fixed at 256 instruction cycles. Bits 7 and 6 of the WDSVR register allow the
user to pick an upper limit of the service window.
Table 16 shows the four possible combinations of lower and
upper limits for the WATCHDOG service window. This flexibility in choosing the WATCHDOG service window prevents
any undue burden on the user software.
Bits 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 of the WDSVR register represent the
5-bit Key Data field. The key data is fixed at 01100. Bit 0 of
the WDSVR Register is the Clock Monitor Select bit.

The user must service the WATCHDOG at least once before
the upper limit of the service window expires. The WATCHDOG may not be serviced more than once in every lower
limit of the service window. The user may service the
WATCHDOG as many times as wished in the time period
between the lower and upper limits of the service window.
The first write to the WDSVR Register is also counted as a
WATCHDOG service.
The WATCHDOG has an output pin associated with it. This
is the WDOUT pin, on pin 1 of the port G. WDOUT is active
low and must be externally connected to the RESET pin or to
some other external logic which handles WATCHDOG event.
The WDOUT pin has a weak pullup in the inactive state. This
pull-up is sufficient to serve as the connection to VCC for
systems which use the internal Power On Reset. Upon
triggering the WATCHDOG, the logic will pull the WDOUT
(G1) pin low for an additional 16 tC–32 tC cycles after the
signal level on WDOUT pin goes below the lower Schmitt
trigger threshold. After this delay, the device will stop forcing
the WDOUT output low. The WATCHDOG service window
will restart when the WDOUT pin goes high.
A WATCHDOG service while the WDOUT signal is active will
be ignored. The state of the WDOUT pin is not guaranteed
on reset, but if it powers up low then the WATCHDOG will
time out and WDOUT will go high.
The Clock Monitor forces the G1 pin low upon detecting a
clock frequency error. The Clock Monitor error will continue
until the clock frequency has reached the minimum specified
value, after which the G1 output will go high following 16
tC–32 tC clock cycles. The Clock Monitor generates a continual Clock Monitor error if the oscillator fails to start, or fails
to reach the minimum specified frequency. The specification
for the Clock Monitor is as follows:
1/tC > 10 kHz — No clock rejection.
1/tC < 10 Hz — Guaranteed clock rejection.
15.1 CLOCK MONITOR
The Clock Monitor aboard the device can be selected or
deselected under program control. The Clock Monitor is
guaranteed not to reject the clock if the instruction cycle
clock (1/tC) is greater or equal to 10 kHz. This equates to a
clock input rate on CKI of greater or equal to 100 kHz.
15.2 WATCHDOG/CLOCK MONITOR OPERATION
The WATCHDOG is enabled by bit 2 of the Option Byte.
When this Option bit is 0, the WATCHDOG is enabled and
pin G1 becomes the WATCHDOG output with a weak pullup.
The WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor are disabled during
reset. The device comes out of reset with the WATCHDOG
armed, the WATCHDOG Window Select bits (bits 6, 7 of the
WDSVR Register) set, and the Clock Monitor bit (bit 0 of the
WDSVR Register) enabled. Thus, a Clock Monitor error will
occur after coming out of reset, if the instruction cycle clock
frequency has not reached a minimum specified value, including the case where the oscillator fails to start.
The WDSVR register can be written to only once after reset
and the key data (bits 5 through 1 of the WDSVR Register)
must match to be a valid write. This write to the WDSVR
register involves two irrevocable choices: (i) the selection of
the WATCHDOG service window (ii) enabling or disabling of
the Clock Monitor. Hence, the first write to WDSVR Register
involves selecting or deselecting the Clock Monitor, select
the WATCHDOG service window and match the WATCH-

15.3 WATCHDOG AND CLOCK MONITOR SUMMARY
The following salient points regarding the WATCHDOG and
CLOCK MONITOR should be noted:
•
• Both the WATCHDOG and CLOCK MONITOR detector
circuits are inhibited during RESET.
• Following RESET, the WATCHDOG and CLOCK MONITOR are both enabled, with the WATCHDOG having the
maximum service window selected.
• The WATCHDOG service window and CLOCK MONITOR enable/disable option can only be changed once,
during the initial WATCHDOG service following RESET.
•
www.national.com
•
•
38
The initial WATCHDOG service must match the key data
value in the WATCHDOG Service register WDSVR in
order to avoid a WATCHDOG error.
Subsequent WATCHDOG services must match all three
data fields in WDSVR in order to avoid WATCHDOG
errors.
The correct key data value cannot be read from the
WATCHDOG Service register WDSVR. Any attempt to
read this key data value of 01100 from WDSVR will read
as key data value of all 0’s.
The WATCHDOG detector circuit is inhibited during both
the HALT and IDLE modes.
This is an undefined ROM location and the instruction
fetched (all 0’s) from this location will generate a software
interrupt signaling an illegal condition.
(Continued)
• The CLOCK MONITOR detector circuit is active during
both the HALT and IDLE modes. Consequently, the device inadvertently entering the HALT mode will be detected as a CLOCK MONITOR error (provided that the
CLOCK MONITOR enable option has been selected by
the program).
• With the single-pin R/C oscillator option selected and the
CLKDLY bit reset, the WATCHDOG service window will
resume following HALT mode from where it left off before
entering the HALT mode.
• With the crystal oscillator option selected, or with the
single-pin R/C oscillator option selected and the CLKDLY
bit set, the WATCHDOG service window will be set to its
selected value from WDSVR following HALT. Consequently, the WATCHDOG should not be serviced for at
least 256 instruction cycles following HALT, but must be
serviced within the selected window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.
• The IDLE timer T0 is not initialized with external RESET.
• The user can sync in to the IDLE counter cycle with an
IDLE counter (T0) interrupt or by monitoring the T0PND
flag. The T0PND flag is set whenever the twelfth bit of the
IDLE counter toggles (every 4096 instruction cycles). The
user is responsible for resetting the T0PND flag.
• A hardware WATCHDOG service occurs just as the device exits the IDLE mode. Consequently, the WATCHDOG should not be serviced for at least 256 instruction
cycles following IDLE, but must be serviced within the
selected window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.
• Following RESET, the initial WATCHDOG service (where
the service window and the CLOCK MONITOR enable/
disable must be selected) may be programmed anywhere within the maximum service window (65,536 instruction cycles) initialized by RESET. Note that this initial
WATCHDOG service may be programmed within the initial 256 instruction cycles without causing a WATCHDOG
error.
• In order to RESET the device on the occurrence of a
WATCH event, the user must connect the WDOUT pin
(G1) pin to the RESET external to the device. The weak
pull-up on the WDOUT pin is sufficient to provide the
RESET connection to VCC for devices which use both
Power On Reset and WATCHDOG.
Thus, the chip can detect the following illegal conditions:
1. Executing from undefined ROM
2. Over “POP”ing the stack by having more returns than
calls.
When the software interrupt occurs, the user can re-initialize
the stack pointer and do a recovery procedure before restarting (this recovery program is probably similar to that following reset, but might not contain the same program initialization procedures). The recovery program should reset the
software interrupt pending bit using the RPND instruction.
16.0 MICROWIRE/PLUS
MICROWIRE/PLUS is a serial SPI compatible synchronous
communications interface. The MICROWIRE/PLUS capability enables the device to interface with MICROWIRE/PLUS
or SPI peripherals (i.e. A/D converters, display drivers, EEPROMs etc.) and with other microcontrollers which support
the MICROWIRE/PLUS or SPI interface. It consists of an
8-bit serial shift register (SIO) with serial data input (SI),
serial data output (SO) and serial shift clock (SK). Figure 28
shows a block diagram of the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic.
The shift clock can be selected from either an internal source
or an external source. Operating the MICROWIRE/PLUS
arrangement with the internal clock source is called the
Master mode of operation. Similarly, operating the
MICROWIRE/PLUS arrangement with an external shift clock
is called the Slave mode of operation.
The CNTRL register is used to configure and control the
MICROWIRE/PLUS mode. To use the MICROWIRE/PLUS,
the MSEL bit in the CNTRL register is set to one. In the
master mode, the SK clock rate is selected by the two bits,
SL0 and SL1, in the CNTRL register. Table 18 details the
different clock rates that may be selected.

15.4 DETECTION OF ILLEGAL CONDITIONS
The device can detect various illegal conditions resulting
from coding errors, transient noise, power supply voltage
drops, runaway programs, etc.
Reading of undefined ROM gets zeroes. The opcode for
software interrupt is 00. If the program fetches instructions
from undefined ROM, this will force a software interrupt, thus
signaling that an illegal condition has occurred.
The subroutine stack grows down for each call (jump to
subroutine), interrupt, or PUSH, and grows up for each
return or POP. The stack pointer is initialized to RAM location
06F Hex during reset. Consequently, if there are more returns than calls, the stack pointer will point to addresses 070
and 071 Hex (which are undefined RAM). Undefined RAM
from addresses 070 to 07F (Segment 0), and all other segments (i.e., Segments 4 … etc.) is read as all 1’s, which in
turn will cause the program to return to address 7FFF Hex.
16.1 MICROWIRE/PLUS OPERATION
Setting the BUSY bit in the PSW register causes the
MICROWIRE/PLUS to start shifting the data. It gets reset
when eight data bits have been shifted. The user may reset
the BUSY bit by software to allow less than 8 bits to shift. If
enabled, an interrupt is generated when eight data bits have
been shifted. The device may enter the MICROWIRE/PLUS
mode either as a Master or as a Slave. Figure 28 shows how
two microcontroller devices and several peripherals may be
interconnected using the MICROWIRE/PLUS arrangements.
WARNING
The SIO register should only be loaded when the SK clock is
in the idle phase. Loading the SIO register while the SK clock
is in the active phase, will result in undefined data in the SIO
register.

active phase while in the MICROWIRE/PLUS is in the slave

Master always initiates all data exchanges. The MSEL bit in
the CNTRL register must be set to enable the SO and SK
functions onto the G Port. The SO and SK pins must also be
selected as outputs by setting appropriate bits in the Port G
configuration register. In the slave mode, the shift clock
stops after 8 clock pulses. Table 19 summarizes the bit
settings required for Master mode of operation.
(Continued)
mode may cause the current SK clock for the SIO shift
register to be narrow. For safety, the BUSY flag should only
be set when the input SK clock is in the idle phase.
16.2 MICROWIRE/PLUS MASTER MODE OPERATION
In the MICROWIRE/PLUS Master mode of operation the
shift clock (SK) is generated internally. The MICROWIRE
20047537
FIGURE 28. MICROWIRE/PLUS Application
Master is shifted properly. After eight clock pulses the BUSY
flag is clear, the shift clock is stopped, and the sequence
may be repeated.
16.3 MICROWIRE/PLUS SLAVE MODE OPERATION
In the MICROWIRE/PLUS Slave mode of operation the SK
clock is generated by an external source. Setting the MSEL
bit in the CNTRL register enables the SO and SK functions
onto the G Port. The SK pin must be selected as an input
and the SO pin is selected as an output pin by setting and
resetting the appropriate bits in the Port G configuration
register. Table 19 summarizes the settings required to enter
the Slave mode of operation.
This table assumes that the control flag MSEL is set.
16.4 ALTERNATE SK PHASE OPERATION AND SK
IDLE POLARITY
The device allows either the normal SK clock or an alternate
phase SK clock to shift data in and out of the SIO register. In
both the modes the SK idle polarity can be either high or low.
The polarity is selected by bit 5 of Port G data register. In the
normal mode data is shifted in on the rising edge of the SK
clock and the data is shifted out on the falling edge of the SK
clock. The SIO register is shifted on each falling edge of the
SK clock. In the alternate SK phase operation, data is shifted
in on the falling edge of the SK clock and shifted out on the
rising edge of the SK clock. Bit 6 of Port G configuration
register selects the SK edge.
A control flag, SKSEL, allows either the normal SK clock or
the alternate SK clock to be selected. Resetting SKSEL
causes the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic to be clocked from the
normal SK signal. Setting the SKSEL flag selects the alternate SK clock. The SKSEL is mapped into the G6 configuration bit. The SKSEL flag will power up in the reset condition, selecting the normal SK signal.

The ACCESS.Bus protocol supports multiple master and
slave transmitters and receivers. Each bus device has a
unique address and can operate as a transmitter or a receiver (though some peripherals are only receivers).
17.0 ACCESS.Bus Interface
The ACCESS.Bus interface module (ACB) is a two-wire
serial interface compatible with the ACCESS.Bus physical
layer. It permits easy interfacing to a wide range of low-cost
memories and I/O devices, including: EEPROMs, SRAMs,
timers, A/D converters, D/A converters, clock chips, and
peripheral drivers. It is compatible with Intel’s SMBus and
Philips’ I2C bus. The module can be configured as a bus
master or slave, and can maintain bidirectional communications with both multiple master and multiple slave devices.
• ACCESS.Bus master and slave
• Supports polling and interrupt-controlled operation
• Generate a wake-up signal on detection of a Start Condition, while in reduced-power mode
• Optional internal pull-up on SDA and SCL pins
• Optional 1.8V logic compatibility on SDA and SCL pins
The ACCESS.Bus protocol uses a two-wire interface for
bidirectional communication between the devices connected
to the bus. The two interface signals are the Serial Data Line
(SDA) and the Serial Clock Line (SCL). These signals should
be connected to the positive supply, through pull-up resistors, to keep the signals high when the bus is idle. When the
ACCESS.Bus module is enabled and Bit 7 of the Option
Register (LVCMP) is set, the SDA and SCL inputs, along with
input L2, provide compatibility with 1.8V logic levels.
17.1 DATA TRANSACTIONS
During data transactions, the master device initiates the
transaction, generates the clock signal and terminates the
transaction. For example, when the ACB initiates a data
transaction with an ACCESS.Bus peripheral, the ACB becomes the master. When the peripheral responds and transmits data to the ACB, their master/slave (data transaction
initiator and clock generator) relationship is unchanged,
even though their transmitter/receiver functions are reversed.
One data bit is transferred during each clock period. Data is
sampled during the high phase of the serial clock (SCL).
Consequently, throughout the clock high phase, the data
must remain stable (see Figure 33). Any change on the SDA
signal during the high phase of the SCL clock and in the
middle of a transaction aborts the current transaction. New
data must be driven during the low phase of the SCL clock.
This protocol permits a single data line to transfer both
command/control information and data using the synchronous serial clock.
20047579
FIGURE 33. Bit Transfer
Each data transaction is composed of a Start Condition, a
number of byte transfers (programmed by software) and a
www.national.com
Stop Condition to terminate the transaction. Each byte is
transferred with the most significant bit first, and after each
byte, an Acknowledge signal must follow.
42
17.1.1 Start and Stop
The ACCESS.Bus master generates Start and Stop Conditions (control codes). After a Start Condition is generated,
the bus is considered busy and it retains this status until a
certain time after a Stop Condition is generated. A high-tolow transition of the data line (SDA) while the clock (SCL) is
high indicates a Start Condition. A low-to-high transition of
the SDA line while the SCL is high indicates a Stop Condition
(Figure 34).
(Continued)
At each clock cycle, the slave can stall the master while it
handles the previous data, or prepares new data. The slave
can hold SCL low, to extend the clock-low period, on each bit
transfer, or on a byte boundary, to accomplish this. Typically,
slaves extend the first clock cycle of a transfer if a byte read
has not yet been stored, or if the next byte to be transmitted
is not yet ready. Some microcontrollers, with limited hardware support for ACCESS.Bus, extend the access after each
bit, to allow software time to handle this bit.

arbitration. In master mode, the device immediately aborts a
transaction if the value sampled on the SDA line differs from
the value driven by the device.
When an abort occurs during the address transmission, the
master that identifies the conflict should give up the bus,
switch to slave mode, and continue to sample SDA to see if
it is being addressed by the winning master on the
ACCESS.Bus.
In addition to the first Start Condition, a repeated Start
Condition can be generated in the middle of a transaction.
This allows another device to be accessed, or a change in
the direction of the data transfer.
17.1.2 Acknowledge Cycle
The Acknowledge Cycle consists of two signals: the acknowledge clock pulse the master sends with each byte
transferred, and the acknowledge signal sent by the receiving device.
The master generates an acknowledge clock pulse after
each byte transfer. The receiver sends an acknowledge
signal after every byte received. There are two exceptions to
the "acknowledge after every byte" rule.
• When the master is the receiver, it must indicate to the
transmitter an end-of-data condition by notacknowledging ("negative acknowledge") the last byte
clocked out of the slave. This "negative acknowledge"
still includes the acknowledge clock pulse (generated by
the master), but the SDA line is not pulled down.
• When the receiver is full, otherwise occupied, or a problem has occurred, it sends a negative acknowledge to
indicate that it cannot accept additional data bytes.
17.3 POWER SAVE MODES
When this device is placed in HALT or IDLE mode, the ACB
module is effectively disabled. Registers ACBST, ACBCST
and ACBCTL1 are reset, however ACBSDA, ACBADDR and
ACBCTL2 are unaffected. If the ACB is enabled
(ACBCTL2.ENABLE = 1) on detection of a Start Condition, a
wake-up signal is issued to the Multi-Input Wake-Up module.
The byte transfer which causes the Wake-Up event will not
be acknowledged by the COP8 ACCESS.Bus and thus must
be retransmitted. The Multi-Input Wake-Up logic must be
configured, by the user, to enable Wake-Up on ACCESS.Bus
transfer. The ACCESS.Bus SDA signal is an alternate function of the one of the Multi-Input Wake-Up pins, and thus the
associated bit of the LWKEN or CWKEN and LWKEDG or
CWKEDG registers must be configured to cause a Wake-Up
event on a rising edge. See Figure 24 and the pinout table
for determination of the Multi-Input Wake-Up channel associated with the ACCESS.Bus.
17.1.3 Addressing Transfer Formats
Each device on the bus has a unique address. Before any
data is transmitted, the master transmits the address of the
slave being addressed. The slave device should send an
acknowledge signal on the SDA signal, once it recognizes its
address.
17.4 SDA AND SCL DRIVER CONFIGURATION
SDA and SCL are driven as open-drain signals on Port L
signals L0 and L1. If the ACB interface is not being used,
these pins are available for use as general-purpose port pins
or Multi-Input Wake-Up inputs.
17.2 BUS ARBITRATION
Arbitration is required when multiple master devices attempt
to gain control of the bus simultaneously. Control of the bus
is initially determined according to the address bits and clock
cycle. If the masters are trying to address the same bus
device, data comparisons determine the outcome of this

The Toggle SCL bit enables toggling the SCL
signal during error recovery. When the SDA
signal is low, writing 1 to this bit drives the

19.1 INTRODUCTION
This section defines the instruction set of the COP8 Family
members. It contains information about the instruction set
features, addressing modes and types.
19.2 INSTRUCTION FEATURES
The strength of the instruction set is based on the following
features:
• Mostly single-byte opcode instructions minimize program
size.
• One instruction cycle for the majority of single-byte instructions to minimize program execution time.
• Many single-byte, multiple function instructions such as
DRSZ.
• Three memory mapped pointers: two for register indirect
addressing, and one for the software stack.
• Sixteen memory mapped registers that allow an optimized implementation of certain instructions.
• Ability to set, reset, and test any individual bit in data
memory address space, including the memory-mapped
I/O ports and registers.
• Register-Indirect LOAD and EXCHANGE instructions
with optional automatic post-incrementing or decrementing of the register pointer. This allows for greater efficiency (both in cycle time and program code) in loading,
walking across and processing fields in data memory.
• Unique instructions to optimize program size and
throughput efficiency. Some of these instructions are:
DRSZ, IFBNE, DCOR, RETSK, VIS and RRC.
19.3 ADDRESSING MODES
The instruction set offers a variety of methods for specifying
memory addresses. Each method is called an addressing
mode. These modes are classified into two categories: op46
Register B or X Indirect with Post-Incrementing/
Decrementing. The relevant memory address is specified
by the contents of the B Register or X register (pointer
register). The pointer register is automatically incremented
or decremented after execution, allowing easy manipulation
of memory blocks with software loops. In assembly language, the notation [B+], [B−], [X+], or [X−] specifies which
register serves as the pointer, and whether the pointer is to
be incremented or decremented.
Example: Exchange Memory with Accumulator, B Indirect
with Post-Increment
X A,[B+]
(Continued)
erand addressing modes and transfer-of-control addressing
modes. Operand addressing modes are the various methods of specifying an address for accessing (reading or writing) data. Transfer-of-control addressing modes are used in
conjunction with jump instructions to control the execution
sequence of the software program.
19.3.1 Operand Addressing Modes
The operand of an instruction specifies what memory location is to be affected by that instruction. Several different
operand addressing modes are available, allowing memory
locations to be specified in a variety of ways. An instruction
can specify an address directly by supplying the specific
address, or indirectly by specifying a register pointer. The
contents of the register (or in some cases, two registers)
point to the desired memory location. In the immediate
mode, the data byte to be used is contained in the instruction
itself.

Indirect from Program Memory. This is a special case of
an indirect instruction that allows access to data tables
stored in program memory. In the “Load Accumulator Indirect” (LAID) instruction, the upper and lower bytes of the
Program Counter (PCU and PCL) are used temporarily as a
pointer to program memory. For purposes of accessing program memory, the contents of the Accumulator and PCL are
exchanged. The data pointed to by the Program Counter is
loaded into the Accumulator, and simultaneously, the original
contents of PCL are restored so that the program can resume normal execution.

The addressing modes are described below. Each description includes an example of an assembly language instruction using the described addressing mode.

the instruction. In assembly language, the direct address is
written as a numerical value (or a label that has been defined
elsewhere in the program as a numerical value).

Each addressing mode has its own advantages and disadvantages with respect to flexibility, execution speed, and
program compactness. Not all modes are available with all
instructions. The Load (LD) instruction offers the largest
number of addressing modes.

The VIS instruction is a special case of the Indirect Transfer
of Control addressing mode, where the double-byte vector
associated with the interrupt is transferred from adjacent
addresses in program memory into the Program Counter in
order to jump to the associated interrupt service routine.
19.4 INSTRUCTION TYPES
The instruction set contains a wide variety of instructions.
The available instructions are listed below, organized into
related groups.
Some instructions test a condition and skip the next instruction if the condition is not true. Skipped instructions are
executed as no-operation (NOP) instructions.
19.4.1 Arithmetic Instructions
The arithmetic instructions perform binary arithmetic such as
addition and subtraction, with or without the Carry bit.
Add (ADD)
Add with Carry (ADC)
Subtract with Carry (SUBC)
Increment (INC)
Decrement (DEC)
Decimal Correct (DCOR)
Clear Accumulator (CLR)
Set Carry (SC)
Reset Carry (RC)
19.4.2 Transfer-of-Control Instructions
The transfer-of-control instructions change the usual sequential program flow by altering the contents of the Program Counter. The Jump to Subroutine instructions save the
Program Counter contents on the stack before jumping; the
Return instructions pop the top of the stack back into the
Program Counter.
Jump Relative (JP)
Jump Absolute (JMP)
Jump Absolute Long. In this 3-byte instruction, 15 bits of
the instruction opcode specify the new contents of the Program Counter.
Example: Jump Absolute Long
JMP 03625
www.national.com
Memory
Memory
Jump Absolute. In this 2-byte instruction, 12 bits of the
instruction opcode specify the new contents of the Program
Counter. The upper three bits of the Program Counter remain unchanged, restricting the new Program Counter address to the same 4-kbyte address space as the current
instruction. (This restriction is relevant only in devices using
more than one 4-kbyte program memory space.)
Example: Jump Absolute
JMP 0125
Reg
Contents
Jump Indirect. In this 1-byte instruction, the lower byte of
the jump address is obtained from a table stored in program
memory, with the Accumulator serving as the low order byte
of a pointer into program memory. For purposes of accessing program memory, the contents of the Accumulator are
written to PCL (temporarily). The data pointed to by the
Program Counter (PCH/PCL) is loaded into PCL, while PCH
remains unchanged.
Example: Jump Indirect
JID
A change in program flow requires a non-incremental
change in the Program Counter contents. The Program
Counter consists of two bytes, designated the upper byte
(PCU) and lower byte (PCL). The most significant bit of PCU
is not used, leaving 15 bits to address the program memory.
Different addressing modes are used to specify the new
address for the Program Counter. The choice of addressing
mode depends primarily on the distance of the jump. Farther
jumps sometimes require more instruction bytes in order to
completely specify the new Program Counter contents.
The available transfer-of-control addressing modes are:
• Jump Relative
• Jump Absolute
• Jump Absolute Long
• Jump Indirect
The transfer-of-control addressing modes are described below. Each description includes an example of a Jump instruction using a particular addressing mode, and the effect
on the Program Counter bytes of executing that instruction.
Jump Relative. In this 1-byte instruction, six bits of the
instruction opcode specify the distance of the jump from the
current program memory location. The distance of the jump
can range from −31 to +32. A JP+1 instruction is not allowed.
The programmer should use a NOP instead.

routine.

19.7 INSTRUCTION EXECUTION TIME
Most instructions are single byte (with immediate addressing
mode instructions taking two bytes).
Instructions Using A & C
Most single byte instructions take one cycle time to execute.
Skipped instructions require x number of cycles to be
skipped, where x equals the number of bytes in the skipped
instruction opcode.
See the BYTES and CYCLES per INSTRUCTION table for
details.
Bytes and Cycles per Instruction
The following table shows the number of bytes and cycles for
each instruction in the format of byte/cycle.
