With on-chip power-on reset, VDD monitor, watchdog timer, and clock oscillator, the Si102x/3x devices are
truly stand -alone system-on- a-chip solutions. Th e flash memory can be repro grammed e ven in-circu it, pro-
viding non-volatile data storage, and also allowing field upgrades of the 8051 firmware. User software has
complete control of all peripherals, and may individually shut down any or all peripherals for power sav-
ings.
The on-chip Silicon Labs 2-wire (C2) development interface allows non-intrusive (uses no on-chip
resources), full speed, in-circuit debugging using the production MCU installed in the final application. This
debug logic supports inspection and modification of memory and registers, setting breakpoints, single
stepping, run and halt commands. All analog and digital peripherals are fully functional while debugging
using C2. The two C2 interface pins can be shared with user functions, allowing in-system debugging with-
out occupying package pins.
Each device is specified for 1.8 to 3.8 V operation over the industrial temperature range (–40 to +85 °C).
The port I/O and RST pins are tolerant of input signals up to VIO + 2.0 V. The Si102x/3x devices are avail-
able in an 85-pin LGA package that is lead-free and RoHS-compliant. See Table 2.1 for ordering informa-
tion. Block diagrams are included in Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.2.
The transceiver's extremely low receive sensitivity (–121 dBm) coupled with industry leading +13 or
+20 dBm output power ensures extended range and improved link performance. Built-in antenna diversity
and support for frequency hopping can be used to further extend range and enhance performance. The
advanced radio features including continuous frequency coverage from 240–960 MHz in 156 Hz or 312 Hz
steps allow precise tuning control. Additional system features such as an automatic wake-up timer, low
battery dete ctor, 64 byte TX/RX FIFO s, auto mat ic packet handlin g, and pream ble det ectio n reduce over all
current consumption.

Si102x/3x
1.1. Typical Con nection Diagram
The application shown in Figure 1.7 is designed for a system with a TX/RX direct-tie configuration without
the use of a TX/RX switch. Most lower power applications will use this configuration. A complete direct-tie
reference design is available from Silicon Laboratories applications support.
For applications seeking improved performance in the presence of multipath fading, antenna diversity can
be used. Antenna diversity support is integrated into the EZRadioPRO transceiver and can improve the
system link budget by 8–10 dB in the presence of these fading conditions, resulting in substantial range
increases. A complete Antenna Diversity reference design is available from Silicon Laboratories applica-
tions support.

1.2. CIP-51™ Microcontroller Core
1.2.1. Fully 8051 Compatible
The Si102x/3x family utilizes Silicon Labs' proprietary CIP-51 microcontroller core. The CIP-51 is fully com-
patible with the MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to
develop software. The CIP-51 core offers all the peripherals included with a standard 8052.
1.2.2. Improved Throughput
The CIP-51 employ s a p ipelined architectu re that grea tly increases it s instr uction throughpu t over the st an-
dard 8051 architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24 system
clock cycles to execute with a maximum system clock of 12-to-24 MHz. By contrast, the CIP-51 core exe-
cutes 70% of its instr uctions in one or two syste m cloc k cycles, with only four instructions taking more than
four system clock cycles.
The CIP-51 has a total of 109 instructions. The table below shows the total number of instructions that
require each execution time.
With the CIP-51's maximum system clock at 25 MHz, it has a peak throughput of 25 MIPS.
1.2.3. Additional Features
The Si102x/3x SoC family includes several key enhancements to the CIP-51 core and peripherals to
improve performance and ease of use in end applications.
The extended inte rrupt h andler pr ovides multiple interr upt sources into the CIP-5 1 allowing num erous ana-
log and digital peripherals to interrupt the controller. An interrupt driven system requires less intervention
by the MCU, giving it more effective throughput. The extra inte rrupt s ources ar e very u seful wh en build ing
multi-tasking, real-time systems.
Eight reset sources are available: power-on reset circuitry (POR), an on-chip VDD monitor (forces reset
when power supply voltage drops below safe levels), a Watchdog Timer, a Missing Clock Detector,
SmaRTClock oscillator fail or alarm, a voltage level detection from Comparator0, a forced software reset,
an external reset pin, and an illegal flash acc ess protection circuit. E ach reset source except for the POR,
Reset Input Pin, or flash error may be disabled by the user in software. The WDT may be permanently dis-
abled in software after a power-on reset during MCU initialization.
The internal oscillator factory calibrated to 24.5 MHz and is accurate to ±2% over the full temperature and
supply range. The internal oscillator period can also be adjusted by user firmware. An additional 20 MHz
low power oscillator is also available which facilitates low-power operation. An external oscillator drive cir -
cuit is included, allowing an external crystal, ceramic resonator, capacitor, RC, or CMOS clock source to
generate the system clock. If desired, the system clock source may be switched on-the-fly between both
internal and external oscillator circuits. An external oscillator can also be extremely useful in low power
applications, allowing the MCU to run from a slow (power saving) source, while periodically switching to
the fast (up to 25 MHz) internal oscillator as needed.

1.3. Port Input/Output
Digital and analog resources are available through 53 I/O pins. Port pins are organized as eight byte-wide
ports. Port pins can be defined as digital or analog I/O. Digital I/O pins can be assigned to one of the inte r-
nal digital resources or used as general purpose I/O (GPIO). Analog I/O pins are used by the internal ana-
log resources. P7.0 can be used as GPIO and is shared with the C2 Interface Data signal (C2D). See
Section “35. C2 Interface” on page 533 for more details.
The designer has complete control over which digital and analog functions are assigned to individual port
pins. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved through the use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. See
Section “27. Port Input/Output” on page 358 for more information on the Crossbar.
For Port I/Os configured as p ush-pull outputs, curr ent is sourced from th e VIO, VIORF, or VBAT supply pin.
Port I/Os used for analog functions can operate up to the supply voltage. See Section “2 7. Port Input/Out-
put” on page 358 for more information on Port I/O operating modes and the electrical specifications chap-
ter for deta iled electrical specifications.

1.4. Serial Ports
The Si102x/3x Family includes an SMBus/I2C interface, a full-duplex UART with enhanced baud rate con-
figuration, and two Enhanced SPI interfaces. Each of the serial buses is fully implemented in hardware an d
makes extensive use of the CIP-51's interrupts, thus requiring very little CPU intervention.
1.5. Programmable Counter Array
An on-chip Programm able Cou nter/Timer Arra y (PCA) is included in addition to the four 1 6-bit g enera l pu r-
pose counter/ timers. T he PCA con sists of a dedica ted 16-bit counter/timer time base with six programma-
ble capture/compare modules. The PCA clock is derived from one of six sources: the system clock divided
by 12, the system clock divided by 4, T imer 0 overflows, an External Clock Input (ECI), the system clock, or
the external oscillator clock source divided by 8.
Each capture/compare module can be configured to operate in a variety of modes: edge- trigg ered captur e,
software timer, hig h-speed output, pulse width modulator (8, 9, 10 , 11, or 16-bit) , or frequency output. Addi-
tionally, Capture/Compare Module 5 offers watchdog timer (WDT) capabilities. Following a system reset,
Module 5 is configured and enabled in WDT mode. The PCA Capture/Compare Module I/O and External
Clock Input may be routed to Port I/O via the Digital Crossbar.

1.6. SAR ADC with 16-bit Auto-Avera ging Accumulator and Autonomous Low
Power Burst Mode
The ADC0 on Si102x/3x devices is a 30 0 ksps, 10-bit or 75 ksps, 12-bit successive-approximation-register
(SAR) ADC with integrated track-and-hold and programmable window detector. ADC0 also has an autono-
mous low power Burst Mode which can automatically enable ADC0, capture and accumulate samples,
then place ADC0 in a low power shut down mode without CPU inte rvention. It also has a 16- bit accumulator
that can automatically oversample and average the ADC results. See Section “5.4. 12-Bit Mode” on
page 84 fo r mo re details on using the ADC in 12-bit mode.
The ADC is fully configurable under sof tware control via Special Function Registe rs. The ADC0 op erates in
single-ended mode and may be configured to measure various different signals using the analog multi-
plexer described in Section “5.7. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer” on p age 95. The volt age refer ence for the ADC
is selected as described in Section “5.9. Voltage and Ground Reference Options” on page 100.

1.7. Programmable Current Reference (IREF0)
Si102x/3x devices include an on-chip programmable current r eference (source o r sink) with two output cur -
rent settings: low power mode and high current mode. The maximum current output in low power mode is
63 µA (1 µA steps) and the maximum current output in high current mode is 504 µA (8 µA steps).
1.8. Comparators
Si102x/3x devices include two on-chip pr ogr am mabl e voltage comparators: Comparator 0 (CPT0) which is
shown in Figure 1.9; Comparator 1 (CPT1) which is shown in Figure 1.10. The two comparators operate
identically but may differ in their ability to be used as reset or wake-up sources. See Section “22. Reset
Sources” on page 285 and the Section “19. Power Managem ent ” on page 264 for details on reset sources
and low power mode wake-up sources, respectively.
The comparator offers programmable response time and hysteresis, an analog input multiplexer, and two
outputs that are optionally available at the Port pins: a synchronous “latched” output (CP0, CP1), or an
asynchronous “raw” output (CP0A, CP1A). The asynchronous CP0A signal is available even when the
system clock is not active. This allows the Comparator to operate and generate an output when the device
is in some low power modes.
The comparator inputs may be connected to Port I/O pins or to other internal signals.

Notes:
1. Based on device characterization data; Not production tested.
2. Digital Supply Current depends upon the particular code being executed. The values in this table are obtained
with the CPU executing a mix of instructions in two loops: djnz R1, $, followed by a loop that accesses an
SFR, and moves data around using the CPU (between accumulator and b-register). The supply current will
vary slightly based on the physical location of this code in flash. As described in the Flash Memory chapter , it
is best to align the jump addresses with a flash word address (byte location /4), to mi nimize flash accesses
and power consumption.

Notes:
1. Based on device characterization data; Not production tested.
2. SYSCLK must be at least 32 kHz to enable debugging.
3. Active Current measure using typical code loop - Digital Supply Current depends upon the particular code
being executed. Digital Supply Current depends on the particular code being executed. The values in this
table are obtained with the CPU executing a mix of instructions in two loops: djnz R1, $, followed by a loop
that accesses an SFR, and moves data around using the CPU (between accumulator and b-register). The
supply current will vary slightly based on the physical location of this code in flash. As described in the Flash
Memory chapter, it is best to align the jump addresses with a flash word addre ss (byte location /4), to
minimize flash accesses and power consumption.
4. Includes oscillator and regulator supply current.
5. Using SmaRTClock osillator with external 32.768 kHz CMOS clock. Does not include crystal bias current.
6. Low-Power Id le mode current measured with CLKMODE = 0x04, PCON = 0x01, and PCLKEN = 0x0F.
7. Low-Power Id le mode current measured with CLKMODE = 0x04, PCON = 0x01, and PCLKEN = 0x00.

5. SAR ADC with 16-bit Auto-Averaging Accumulator and
Autonomous Low Power Burst Mode
The ADC0 on Si102x/3x devices is a 30 0 ksps, 10-bit or 75 ksps, 12-bit successive-approximation-register
(SAR) ADC with integrated track-and-hold and programmable window detector. ADC0 also has an autono-
mous low power Burst Mode which can automatically enable ADC0, capture and accumulate samples,
then place ADC0 in a low power shut down mode without CPU inte rvention. It also has a 16- bit accumulator
that can automatically oversample and a verage the ADC r esult s. Se e Section 5.4 for more details on using
the ADC in 12-bit mode.
The ADC is fully configurable under sof tware control via Special Function Registe rs. The ADC0 op erates in
Single-ended mode and may be configured to measure various different signals using the analog multi-
plexer described in “5.7. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer” on page 95. The voltage reference for the ADC is
selected as described in “5.9. Voltage and Ground Reference Options” on page 100.

5.1. Output Code Formatting
The registers ADC0H and ADC0L contain the high and low bytes of the output conversion code from the
ADC at the completion of each conversion. Data can be right-justified or left-justified, depending on the
setting of the AD0SJST[2:0]. When the repeat count is set to 1, conversion codes are represented as 10-
bit unsigned inte gers. Inputs are measured from 0 to VREF x 1023/10 24. Example c odes are shown below
for both right-justified and left-justified data. Unused bits in the ADC0H and ADC0L registers are set to 0.

When the repeat count is greate r than 1, the ou tput con version code repres ents the accumu lated result of
the conversions performed and is updated after the last conversion in the series is finished. Sets of 4, 8,
16, 32, or 64 consecutive samples can be accumulated and represented in unsigned integer format. The
repeat count can be selected using the AD0RPT bits in the ADC0AC register. When a repeat count higher
than 1, the ADC output must be right-justified (AD0SJST = 0xx); unused bits in the ADC0H and ADC0L
registers are set to 0. The example below shows the right-justified result for various input voltages and
repeat counts. Notice that accumulating 2n samples is equivalent to left-shifting by n bit positions when all
samples returned from the ADC have the same value.
The AD0SJST bits can be used to format the contents of the 16-bit accumulator. The accumulated result
can be shifted right by 1, 2, or 3 bit positions. Based on the principles of oversampling and averaging, the
effective ADC resolution incr eases by 1 bit each time the oversamp ling rate is increased by a factor of 4.
The example below shows how to increase the effective ADC resolution by 1, 2, and 3 bits to obtain an
effective ADC resolution of 11-bit, 12-bit, or 13-bit respectively wi thout CPU intervention.

5.2. Modes of Operation
ADC0 has a maximum conversion speed of 300 ksps in 10-bit mode. The ADC0 conversion clock (SAR-
CLK) is a divided version of the system clock when burst mode is disabled (BURSTEN = 0), or a divided
version of the low power oscillator when burst mode is enabled (BURSEN = 1). The clock divide value is
determined by the AD0SC bits in the ADC0CF register.
5.2.1. Starting a Conversion
A conversion ca n be in itiated in one of five w ays, de pending on the programmed states of the ADC0 Start
of Conversion Mode bit s (AD0CM20) in register ADC0CN. Conversions may be initiated by o ne of the fol -
lowing:
1. Writing a 1 to the AD0BUSY bit of register ADC0CN
2. A Timer 0 overflow (i.e., timed continuous conversions)
3. A Timer 2 overflow
4. A Timer 3 overflow
5. A rising edge on the CNVSTR input signal (pin P0.6)
Writing a 1 to AD0BUSY provides software control of ADC0 whereby conversions are performed "on-
demand". During conversion, the AD0BUSY bit is set to logic 1 and reset to logic 0 when the conversion is
complete. The falling edge of AD0BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the ADC0 interrupt
flag (AD0INT). When polling for ADC conversion completions, the ADC0 interrupt flag (AD0INT) should be
used. Converted data is available in the ADC0 data registers, ADC0H:ADC0L, when bit AD0INT is logic 1.
When Timer 2 or Timer 3 overflows are used as the conversion source, Low Byte overflows are used if
Timer 2/3 is in 8-bit mode; High byte overflows are used if Timer 2/3 is in 16-bit mode. See “33. Timers” on
page 491 for timer configuration.
Import ant Note Ab out Using CNVSTR: Th e CNVSTR input pin also functions as Port p in P0 .6. Whe n the
CNVSTR input is used as the ADC0 conversion source, Port pin P0.6 should be skipped by the Digital
Crossbar. To configure the Crossbar to skip P0.6, set to 1 Bit 6 in register P0SKIP. See “27. Port Input/Out-
put” on page 358 for details on Port I/O configuration.
5.2.2. Tracking Modes
Each ADC0 conversion must be preceded by a minimum tracking time in order for the converted result to
be accurate. The minimum tracking time is given in Table 4.12. The AD0TM bit in register ADC0CN con-
trols the ADC0 track-and-hold mode. In its default state when Burst Mode is disabled, the ADC0 input is
continuously tracked, except when a conversion is in progress. When the AD0TM bit is logic 1, ADC0
operates in low-power track-and-hold mode. In this mode, each conversion is preceded by a tracking
period of 3 SAR clocks (after the start-of-conversion signal). When the CNVSTR signal is used to initiate
conversions in low-power tracking mode, ADC0 tracks only when CNVSTR is low; conversion begins on
the rising edge of CNVSTR (see Figure 5.2). Tracking can also be disabled (shutdown) when the device is
in low power standby or sleep modes. Low-po we r tr ack- and-hold mode is also useful when AMUX settings
are frequently changed, due to the settling time requirements described in “5.2.4. Settling Time Require-
ments” on page 83.

5.2.3. Burst Mode
Burst Mode is a power saving feature that allows ADC0 to remain in a low power state between conver-
sions. When Bu rst Mode is e nabled, AD C0 wakes fr om a low po wer state, accum ulates 1, 4, 8, 16, 32 , or
64 using an internal Burs t Mode clock (approximately 20 MHz), then re-enters a low power state. Since the
Burst Mode clock is independent of the syste m clock, ADC0 can perform multip le conversion s then enter a
low power state within a single system clock cycle, even if the system clock is slow (e.g. 32.768 kHz), or
suspended.
Burst Mode is enabled by setting BURSTEN to logic 1. When in Burst Mode, AD0EN controls the ADC0
idle power state (i.e. the state ADC0 enters when not tracking or performing conversions). If AD0EN is set
to logic 0, ADC0 is powered d own after each burst. If AD0EN is set to logic 1, ADC0 remains enabled after
each burst. On each conver t start signal, ADC0 is awakened from its Idle Power State. If ADC0 is powered
down, it will automatically power up and wait the programmable Power-Up Time controlled by the
AD0PWR bits. Otherwise, ADC0 will st art tracking and converting immediately. Figure 5.3 shows an exam-
ple of Burst Mode Operation with a slow system clock and a repeat count of 4.
When Burst Mode is enabled, a single convert start will initiate a number of conversions equal to the repeat
count. When Burst Mode is disabled, a convert start is required to initiate each conversion. In both modes,
the ADC0 End of Conversion Interrupt Flag (AD0INT) will be set after “repeat count” conversions have
been accumulated. Similarly, the Window Comparator will not compare the result to the greater-than and
less-than registers until “repeat count” conversions have been accumulated.
In Burst Mode, tracking is determined by the settings in AD0PWR and AD0TK. The default settings for
these registers will work in most applications without modification; however , settling time requirement s may
need adjustment in some applications. Refer to “5.2.4. Settling Time Requirements” on page 83 for mo re
details.
Notes:
Setting AD0TM to 1 will insert an additional 3 SAR clocks of tracking before each conversion,
regardless of the settings of AD0PWR and AD0TK.
When using Burst Mode, care must be taken to issue a convert start signal no faster than once every
four SYSCLK periods. This includes external convert start signals.

5.2.4. Settling Time Requirements
A minimum amount of tracking time is required before each conversion can be performed, to allow the
sampling capacitor voltage to settle. This tracking time is determined by the AMUX0 resistance, the ADC0
sampling capacitance, any external source resistance, and the accuracy required for the conversion. Note
that in low-power tracking mode, three SAR clocks are used for tracking at the start of every conversion.
For many applications, these three SAR clocks will meet the minimum tracking time requirements, and
higher values for the external source impedance will increase the required tracking time.
Figure 5.4 shows the equivalent ADC0 input circuit. The required ADC0 settling time for a given settling
accuracy (SA) may be approximated by Equation . When measuring the Temperature Sensor output or
VDD with respect to GND, RTOTAL reduces to RMUX. See Table 4.12 for ADC0 minimum settling time
requirements as well as the mux impedance and sampling capacitor values.
ADC0 Settlin g Time Requirements
Where:
SA is the settling accuracy, given as a fraction of an LSB (for example, 0.25 to settle within 1/4 LSB)
t is the required settling time in seconds
RTOTAL is the sum of the AMUX0 resistance and any external source re sistance.
n is the ADC resolution in bits (10).
Figure 5.4. ADC0 Equivalent Input Circuits
5.2.5. Gain Setting
The ADC has gain settings of 1x and 0.5x. In 1x mode, the full scale reading of the ADC is determined
directly by VREF. In 0.5x mode, the full-scale reading of the ADC occurs when the input volt age is VREF x 2.
The 0.5x gain setting can be useful to obtain a higher input Voltage range when using a small VREF volt-
age, or to measure input voltages that are between VREF and VDD. Gain settings for the ADC are con-
trolled by the AMP0G N bit in re gis te r ADC0 CF.

5.3. 8-Bit Mode
Setting the ADC08BE bit in register ADC0CF to 1 will put the ADC in 8-bit mode.In 8-bit mode, only the
8 MSBs of data are converted, allowing the conversion to be completed in two fewer SAR clock cycles
than a 10-bit conversion. This can result in an overall lower power consumption since the system can
spend more time in a low power mode. The two LSBs of a conversion are always 00 in this mode, and the
ADC0L register will always read back 0x00.
5.4. 12-Bit Mode
Si102x/3x devices have an enhanced SAR converter that provides 12-bit resolution while retaining the 10-
and 8-bit operating modes of the other devices in the family. When configured for 12-bit conversions, the
ADC performs four 10- bit conversion s using four different reference volt age s and co mbines the resu lt s in to
a single 12-bit value. Un like simple averaging te chniques, this method provides true 12-bit resolu tion of AC
or DC input signals without depending on noise to provide dithering. The converter also employs a hard-
ware Dynamic Element Matching algorithm that reconfigures the largest elements of the internal DAC for
each of the four 10-bit conversions to cancel the any matching errors, enabling the converter to achieve
12-bit linearity performance to go along with its 12-bit resolution. For best performance, the Low Power
Oscillator should be selected as the system clock source while taking 12-bit ADC measurements.
The 12-bit mode is enable d by se tting th e AD01 2BE bit (ADC0AC.7) to logi c 1 and configurin g Bu rst Mode
for four conversions as described in Section 5.2.3. The conversion can be initiated using any of the meth-
ods described in Section 5.2.1, and the 12-bit result will appear in the ADC0H and ADC0L registers. Since
the 12-bit result is formed from a combination of four 10- bit results, th e maximum output value is 4 x (1023)
= 4092, rather than the max value of (2^12 – 1) = 4095 that is produced by a traditional 1 2-bit converter. To
further incre ase resoluti on, the burs t mode repeat value may be conf igured to any mu ltiple of four conv er -
sions. For example, if a repeat value of 16 is selected, the ADC0 output will be a 14-bit number (sum of
four 12-bit numbers) with 13 effective bits of resolution.

5.5. Low Power Mode
The SAR converter provides a low power mode that allows a significant reduction in operating current
when operating at low SAR clock frequencies. Low power mode is enabled by setting the AD0LPM bit
(ADC0PWR.7) to 1. In general, low power mode is recommended when operating with SAR conversion
clock frequency at 4 MHz or le ss. See the Electrical Cha racteristics chap te r for de tails on power consump-
tion and the maximum clock frequencies allowed in each mode. Setting the Low Power Mode bit reduces
the bias currents in both the SAR converter and in the High-Speed Voltage Reference.

5.7. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer
ADC0 on Si102x/3x has an analog multiplexer, referred to as AMUX0.
AMUX0 selects the positive inputs to the single-ended ADC0. Any of the following may be selected as the
positive input: Port I/O pins, the on-chip temperature sensor, the VBAT Power Supply, Regulated Digital
Supply Voltage (Output of VREG0), VDC Supply, or the positive input may be connected to GND. The
ADC0 input channels are selected in the ADC0MX register described in SFR Definition 5.12.
Figure 5.7. ADC0 Multiplexer Block Diagram
Important Note About ADC0 Input Configuration: Port pins selected as ADC0 inputs should be config-
ured as analog inputs, and should be skipped by the Digital Crossbar. To configure a Port pin for analog
input, set to 0 the corresponding bit in register PnMDIN and disable the digital driver (PnMDOUT = 0 and
Port Latch = 1). To force the Crossbar to skip a Port pin, set to 1 the corresponding bit in register PnSKIP.
See Section “27. Port Input/Output” on page 358 for more Port I/O configuration details.

5.8. Temperature Sensor
An on-chip tempe rature sensor is included on the Si102x /3x which can be directly acce ssed via the ADC
multiplexer in single-ended configuration. To use the ADC to measure the temperature sensor, the ADC
mux channel s hould select the t emperature sens or. The temperat ure sensor transfe r function is show n in
Figure 5.8. The output voltage (VTEMP) is the positive ADC input when the ADC multiplexer is set correctly.
The TEMPE bit in register REF0CN enables/disables the temperature sensor, as described in SFR
Definition 5.15. REF0CN: Voltage Reference Contr ol. While disabled, the temperature sensor defaults to a
high impedance state and any ADC measurements performed on the sensor will result in meaningless
data. Refer to Table 4.12 for the slope and offset parameters of the temperature sensor.
Figure 5.8. Temperature Sensor Transfer Function
5.8.1. Calibration
The uncalibrated temperature sensor output is extremely linear and suitable for relative temperature mea-
surements (see Table 4.13 for linearity specifications). For absolute temperature measurements, offset
and/or gain calibration is recomme nded. Typically a 1-poin t (offset) calibration includes the following ste ps:
1. Control/measure the ambient temperature (this temperature must be known).
2. Power the device, and delay for a few seconds to allow for self-heating.
3. Perform an ADC conversion with the temperature sensor selected as the positive input and GND
selected as the ne ga tiv e inp ut .
4. Calculate the offset chara ct er i stics, and store this value in non-volatile memory for use with
subsequent temperature sensor measurements.

Figure 5.9 shows the typical temperature sensor error assuming a 1-point calibration at 25 °C. Parame-
ters that affect ADC measurement, in particular the voltage reference value, will also affect temper-
ature measurement.
A single-point offset measurement of the temperature sensor is performed on each device during produc-
tion test. The measurement is performed at 25 °C ±5 °C, using the ADC with the internal high speed refer-
ence buffer selected as the Voltage Reference. The direct ADC result of the measurement is stored in the
SFR registers TOFFH and TOFFL, shown in SFR Definition 5.13 and SFR Definition 5.14.

5.9. Voltage and Ground Reference Options
The voltage reference MUX is configurable t o use an externally con nected voltage referenc e, the internal
voltage reference, or one of two power supply voltages (see Figure 5.10). The ground reference MUX
allows the ground reference for ADC0 to be selected between the ground pin (GND) or a port pin dedi-
cated to analog ground (P0.1/AGND).
The voltage and ground reference options are configured using the REF0CN SFR described on SFR
Definition 5.15. REF0CN: Voltage Reference Control. Electrical specifications are can be found in the
Electrical Specifications Chapter.
Important Note About the VREF and AGND Inputs: Port pins are used as the external VREF and AGND
inputs. When u sing an external volt age reference or the internal precision reference, P0.0/VREF should be
configured as an ana log input and skipped by the Dig ital Crossb ar. When using AGND as the gro und refer -
ence to ADC0, P0.1/AGND should be configured as an analog input and skipped by the Digital Crossbar.
Refer to Section “27. Port Input/Output” on page 358 for complete Port I/O co nfiguration details. The exter-
nal reference volt ag e must be within the range 0 VREF VDD and the external ground reference must be
at the same DC voltage potential as GND.

5.10. External Vo ltage Reference
To use an external volta ge r eference, REF SL[1:0] sh ould be set to 00. Bypass capacitors should be adde d
as recommended by the manufacturer of the external voltage reference. If the manufacturer does not pro-
vide recommendations, a 4.7uF in parallel with a 0.1uF capacitor is recommended.
5.11. Internal Voltage Reference
For applications requiring the maximum number of port I/O pins, or very short VREF turn-on time, the
1.65 V high-speed reference will be the best internal reference option to choose. The high speed internal
reference is selected by setting REFSL[1:0] to 11. When selected, the high speed internal reference will be
automatically enabled/disabled on an as-needed basis by ADC0.
For applications with a non-varying power supply volt age, using the power supply as the voltage reference
can provide ADC0 with added dynamic range at the cost of reduced power supply noise rejection. To use
the 1.8 to 3.6 V power supply voltage (VDD) or the 1.8 V regulated digital supply voltage as the reference
source, REFSL[1:0] should be set to 01 or 10, respectively.
5.12. Analog Ground Reference
To prevent ground noise generated by switching digital logic from affecting sensitive analog measure-
ments, a separate analog ground reference option is available. When enabled, the ground reference for
ADC0 during both the tracking/sampling an d the co nversion pe riods is t aken from the P0.1 /AGND pin. Any
external sensors sampled by ADC0 should be referenced to the P0.1/AGND pin. This pin should be con-
nected to the gro und terminal of an y external sens ors sampled by ADC0. If an external voltage reference is
used, the P0.1/AGND pin should be connected to the ground of the external reference and its associated
decoupling capacitor. The separate analog ground reference option is enabled by setting REFGND to 1.
Note that when sampling the internal temperature sensor, the internal chip ground is always used for the
sampling operation, regardless of the setting of the REFGND bit. Similarly, whenever the internal 1.65 V
high-speed reference is selected, the internal chip ground is always used during the conversion period,
regardless of the setting of the REFGND bit.
5.13. Temperature Sensor Enable
The TEMPE bit in register REF0CN enables/disables the temp er at ur e se ns or. While disa ble d , t he t em p er-
ature sensor defaults to a high impedance state and any ADC0 measurements performed on the sensor
result in meaningless data. See Section “5.8. Temperature Sensor” on page 97 for details on temperature
sensor characteristics when it is enabled.

6. Comparators
Si102x/3x devices include two on-chip programmable voltage comparators: Comparator 0 (CPT0) is
shown in Figure 6.1; Comparator 1 (CPT1) is shown in Figure 6.2. The two comparators operate identi-
cally, but may differ in their ability to be used as reset or wake-up sources. See the Reset Sources chapter
and the Power Management chapter for details on reset sources and low power mode wake-up sources,
respectively.
The comparator offers programmable response time and hysteresis, an analog input multiplexer, and two
outputs that are optionally available at the port pins: a synchronous output (CP0, CP1), or an asynchro-
nous output (CP0A, CP1A). The asynchronous CP0A signal is available even when the system clock is not
active. This allows the comparator to operate and generate an output when the device is in some low
power modes .
6.1. Comparator Inputs
Each comparator performs an analog comparison of the voltage levels at its positive (CP0+ or CP1+) and
negative (CP0- or CP1-) input. Both comparators support multiple port pin inputs multiplexed to their posi-
tive and negative comparator inputs using analog input multiplexers. The analog input multiplexers are
completely under software control and configured using SFR registers. See “7.3. Comparator0 and
Comparator1 Analog Multiplexers” on page 112 for details on how to select and configure comparator
inputs.
Important Note About Comparator Inputs: The port pins selected as comparator inputs should be con-
figured as analog inputs and skipped by the crossbar. See "27. Port Input/Output" on page 358 for more
details on how to configure port I/O pins as analog inputs. The comparator may also be used to compare
the logic level of digital signals, however, port I/O pins configured as digital inputs must be driven to a valid
logic state (HIGH or LOW) to avoid incr ea sed po we r co nsu m pt ion .

6.2. Comparator Outputs
When a comparator is enabled, its output is a logic 1 if the voltage at the positive input is higher than the
voltage at the negative input. When disabled, the comparator ou tpu t is a lo gic 0. The comparator output is
synchronized with the system clock as shown in Figure 6.2. The synchronous output (CP0, CP1) can be
polled in software (CPnOUT bit), used as an interrupt source, or routed to a port pin through the crossbar.
The asynchronous comparator output (CP0A, CP1A) is used by the low power mode wakeup logic and
reset decision logic. See "19. Power Management" on page 264 and "22. Reset Sources" on page 285 for
more det ails on how the asyn chronous comp arator ou tputs a re used to make wake -up and reset decisions.
The asynchronous comparator output can also be routed directly to a port pin through the crossbar, and is
available for use outside the device even if the system clock is stopped.
When using a comparator as an interrupt source, comparator interrupts can be generated on rising-edge
and/or falling-edge comparator output transitions. Two independent interrupt flags (CPnRIF and CPnFIF)
allow software to determine which edge caused the comparator interrupt. The comparator rising-edge and
falling-edge interrupt flags are set by hardware when a corresponding edge is detected regardless of the
interrupt enable state. Once set, these bits remain set until cleared by software.
The rising-edge and falling-edge interrupts can be individually enabled using the CPnRIE and CPnFIE
interrupt enable bits in the CPTnMD register. In order for th e CPnRIF and /o r CPnFIF in terr up t flag s to gen-
erate an interrupt request to the CPU, the comparator must be enabled as an interrupt source and global
interrupts must be enabled. See "17. Interrupt Handler" on page 238 for additional information.

6.3. Comparator Response Time
Comparator response time may be configured in software via the CPTnMD registers described on "SFR
Definition 6.2. CPT0MD: Comparator 0 Mode Selection" on page 107 and "SFR Definition 6.4. CPT1MD:
Comparator 1 Mode Selection" on page 109. Four response time settings are available: Mode 0 (Fastest
Response T ime), Mode 1, Mode 2, a nd Mode 3 ( Lowest Power). Selecting a lon ger response time red uces
the comparator active supply current. The comparators also have low power shutdown state, which is
entered any time the comparator is disabled. Comparator rising edge and falling edge response times are
typically not equal. See Table 4.16 on page 66 for complete comparator timing and supply current specifi-
cations.
6.4. Comparator Hysterisis
The comparators feature software-programmable hysterisis that can be used to stabilize the comparator
output while a transition is occurring on the input. Using the CPTnCN registers, the user can program both
the amount of hysteresis voltage (referred to the input voltage) and the positive and negative-going sym-
metry of this hysteresis around the threshold voltage (i.e., the com parator negative input).
Figure 6.3 shows that when positive hysterisis is enabled, the comparator output does not transition from
logic 0 to logic 1 until the comparator positive input voltage has exceeded the threshold voltage by an
amount equal to the programmed hysterisis. It also shows that when negative hysterisis is enabled, the
comparator output does not transition from logic 1 to logic 0 until the comparator positive input voltage has
fallen below the threshold voltage by an amount equal to the programmed hysterisis.
The amount of positive hysterisis is determined by the settin gs of the CPnHYP bit s in the CPTnCN r egister
and the amount of negative hysteresis voltage is determined by the settings of the CPnHYN bits in the
same register. Settings of 20 mV, 10 mV, 5 mV, or 0 mV can be programmed for both positive and negative
hysterisis. See “Table 4.16. Comparator Electrical Characteristics” on page 66 for complete comparator
hysterisis specifications.

6.5. Comparator Register Descriptions
The SFRs used to enable and configure the comparators are described in the following register descrip-
tions. A comparator must be enabled by setting the CPnEN bit to logic 1 before it can be used. From an
enabled state, a comparator can be disabled and placed in a low power state by clearing the CPnEN bit to
logic 0.
Important Note About Comparator Settings: False rising and falling edges can be detected by the com-
parator while powering on or if changes are made to the hysteresis or response time control bits. There-
fore, it is recommended that the rising-edge and falling-edge flags be explicitly cleared to logic 0 a short
time after the comp arator is enabled o r it s mode bit s h ave been ch anged. The comp arator p ower up time is
specified in Table 4.16, “Comparator Electrical Characteristics,” on page 66.

7. Programmable Current Reference (IREF0)
Si102x/3x devices include an on-chip programmable current r eference (source o r sink) with two output cur -
rent settings: Low Power Mode and High Current Mode. The maximum current output in Low Power Mode
is 63 µA (1 µA steps) and the maximum current output in High Current Mode is 504 µA (8 µA steps).
The current source/sink is controlled though the IREF0CN special function register. It is enabled by setting
the desired output current to a non-zero value. It is disabled by writing 0x 00 to IREF0CN. The port I/O pin
associated with ISRC0 should be configured as an analog input and skipped in the Crossbar. See “Port
Input/Output” on page 358 for more details.

7.1. PWM Enhanced Mode
The precision of the current reference can be increase d b y f i ne tu nin g th e I REF 0 ou tp ut us ing a PWM sig-
nal generated by the PCA. This mode allows the IREF0DAT bits to perform a course adjustment on the
IREF0 output. Any available PCA channel can perform a fine adjustment on the IREF0 output. When
enabled (PWMEN = 1), the CEX signal selected using the PWMSS bit field is internally routed to IREF0 to
control the on time of a current source having the weight of 2 LSBs. With the two least significant bits of
IREF0DAT set to 00b, applying a 100% duty cycle on the CEX signal will be equivalent to setting the two
LSBs of IREF0DAT to 10b. PWM enhanced mode is enabled and setup using the IREF0CF register.

7.3. Comparator0 and Comparator1 Analog Multiplexers
Comparator0 and Comparator1 on Si102x/3x devices have analog input multiplexers to connect port I/O
pins and internal signals the comparator inputs; CP0+/CP0- are the positive and negative input multiplex-
ers for Comparator0 and CP1+/CP1- are the positive and negative input multiplexers for Comparator1.
The comparator input multiplexers directly support capacitive sensors. When the Compare input is
selected on the positive or negative multiplexer, any Port I/O pin connected to the other multiplexer can be
directly connected to a cap acitive sensor with no ad ditional externa l component s. T he Comp are sig nal pro-
vides the appropriate reference level for detecting when the capacitive sensor has charged or discharged
through the on-chip Rsense resistor. The Comparator0 output can be routed to Timer2 for capturing the
capacitor’s charge and discharge time. Se e Section “33. Timers” on page 491 for details.
Any of the following may be selected as comparator inputs: port I/O pins, capa citive touch se nse compare,
VDD/DC+ supply voltage, regulated digital supply voltage (output of VREG0), the VBAT supply voltage or
ground. The comparator s supply voltage divided by 2 is also available as an input; the resistors used to
divide the voltage only draw current when this setting is selected. The comparator input multiplexers are
configured using the CPT0MX and CPT1MX registers described in SFR Definition 7.3 and SFR Definition
7.4.

8. CIP-51 Microcontroller
The MCU system controller core is the CIP-51 microcontroller. The CIP-51 is fully compatible with the
MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to develop soft-
ware. The MCU family has a superset of all the peripherals included with a standard 8051. The CIP-51
also includes on-chip debug hardware (see description in Section 35), and interfaces directly with the ana-
log and digit al subsystems providin g a complete dat a acquisition or control-system solution in a single inte-
grated circuit.
The CIP-51 Microcontroller core implements the standard 8051 organization and peripherals as well as
additional custom peripherals and functions to extend its capability (see Figure 8.1 for a block diagram).
The CIP-51 includes the following features:
Performance
The CIP-51 employ s a p ipelined architectu re that grea tly increases it s instr uction throughpu t over the st an-
dard 8051 architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24 system
clock cycles to execute, and usually have a maximum system clock of 12 MHz. By contrast, the CIP-51
core executes 70% of its instructions in one or two system clock cycles, with no instructions taking more
than eight system clock cycles.

With the CIP-51's maximum system clock at 25 MHz, it has a peak throughput of 25 MIPS. The CIP-51 has
a total of 109 instructions. The table below shows the total number of instructions that require each execu-
tion time.
Programming and Debugging Support
In-system programming of the flash program memory and communication with on-chip debug suppo rt logic
is accomplished via the Silicon Labs 2-Wire Development Interface (C2).
The on-chip debug support logic facilitates full speed in-circuit debugging, allowing the setting of hardware
breakpoints, starting, stopping and single stepping through program execution (including interrupt service
routines), examination of the program's call stack, and reading/writing the contents of registers and mem-
ory. This method of on-chip debugging is completely non-intrusive, requiring no RAM, Stack, timers, or
other on-chip resources. C2 details can be found in Section “35. C2 Interface” on page 533.
The CIP-51 is supported by development tools from Silicon Labs and third party vendors. Silicon Labs pro-
vides an integrated deve lopment environmen t (IDE) including editor, debugg er and programmer. The IDE's
debugger and programmer interface to the CIP-51 via the C2 interface to provide fast and efficient in-sys-
tem device programming and debugging. Third party macro assemblers and C compilers are also avail-
able.
8.1. Instruction Set
The instruction set of the CIP-51 System Controller is fully compatible with the standard MCS-51™ instruc-
tion set. Standard 8051 development tools can be used to develop software for the CIP-51. All CIP-51
instructions are the binary and functional equivalent of their MCS-51™ counterparts, including opcodes,
addressing modes and effect on PSW flags. However, instruction timing is different than that of the stan-
dard 8051.
8.1.1. Instruction and CPU Timing
In many 8051 implementations, a distinction is made between machine cycles and clock cycles, with
machine cycles varying from 2 to 12 clock cycles in length. However, the CIP-51 implementation is based
solely on clock cycle timing. All instruction timings are specified in terms of clock cycles.
Due to the pipelined architecture of the CIP-51, most instructions execute in the same number of clock
cycles as there are program bytes in the instruction. Conditional branch instructions take one less clock
cycle to com plete when the branch is not taken a s opposed to when the branch is taken. Table 8.1 is the
CIP-51 Instruction Set Summary, which includes the mnemonic, number of bytes, and number of clock
cycles for each instruction.

9.1. Program Memory
The Si1020/24/30/34 devices have a 128 kB program memory space, Si1021/25/31/35 devices have a
64 kB program memory space, Si1022/26/32/36 devices have a 32 kB program memory space, and
Si1023/27/33/37 devices have a 16 kB program memory space. The devices with 128 kB of program
memory space implement this as in-system re-programmable flash memory in four 32 kB code banks. A
common code bank (Bank 0) of 32 kB is always accessible from addresses 0x0000 to 0x7FFF. The upper
code banks (Bank 1, Bank 2, and Bank 3) are each mapped to addresses 0x8000 to 0xFFFF, depending

64 kB or less of program memory can be used as non-banked devices.
The IFBANK bits select which of the upper banks are used for code execution, while the COBANK bits
select the bank to be used for direct writes and reads of the flash memory.

9.1.1. MOVX Instruction and Program Memory
The MOVX instruction in an 8051 device is typically used to access external data memory. On the
Si102x/3x devices, the MOVX instruction is normally used to read and write on-chip XRAM, but can be re-
configured to write and erase on-chip flash memory space. MOVC instructions are always used to read
flash memory, while MOVX write instructions are used to erase and write flash. This flash access feature
provides a mechanism for the Si102x/3x to update program code and use the program memory space for
non-volatile data storage. Refer to Section “18. Flash Memory” on page 250 for further details.
9.2. Data Memory
The Si102x/3x device family includes 8448 bytes (Si1020/21/22/25/26/27/30/31/35/36/37) or 4352 bytes
(Si1023/27/33/37) of RAM data memory. 256 bytes of this memory is mapped into the internal RAM space

of the 8051. 8192 or 4096 bytes of this memory is on-chip “external” memory. The data memory map is
shown in Figure 9.1 for reference.
9.2.1. Internal RAM
There are 256 bytes of internal RAM mapped into the data memory space from 0x00 through 0xFF. The
lower 128 bytes of data memory are used for general purpose registers and scratch pad memory. Either
direct or indirect addressing may be used to access the lower 128 bytes of data memory. Locations 0x00
through 0x1F are addressable as four banks of general purpose registers, each bank consisting of eight
byte-wide registers. The next 16 bytes, locations 0x20 through 0x2F, may either be addressed as bytes or
as 128 bit locations accessible with the direct addressing mode.
The upper 128 bytes of data memory are accessib le only b y indirect addressing. This region occupies the
same address space as the Special Function Registers (SFR) but is physically separate from the SFR
space. The addressing mode used by an instruction when accessing locations above 0x7F determines
whether the CPU accesses the upper 128 bytes of data memory space or the SFRs. Instructions that use
direct addressing will access the SFR space. Instructions using indirect addressing above 0x7F access the
upper 128 bytes of data memory. Figure 9.1 illustrates the data memory organization of the Si102x/3x.
9.2.1.1. General Purpose Registers
The lower 32 bytes of dat a memory, locations 0x00 through 0x1F, may be addressed as four banks of gen -
eral-purpose registers. Each bank consists of eight byte-wide registers designated R0 through R7. Only
one of these banks may be ena bled at a time. Two bi ts in the program status word, RS0 (PSW.3) and RS1
(PSW.4), select the active register bank (see description of the PSW in SFR Definition 8.6). This allows
fast context switching when entering su brou tines and interrupt se rvice routines. Indir ect addressin g modes
use registers R0 and R1 as index registers.
9.2.1.2. Bit Addressable Locations
In addition to dir ect access to data memory organized as bytes, the sixteen d ata memory locations at 0x20
through 0x2F are also accessible as 128 individually addressable bits. Each bit has a bit address from
0x00 to 0x7F. Bit 0 of th e byte at 0x20 has b it address 0x00 while bit7 of th e byte at 0x20 has b it address
0x07. Bit 7 of the byte at 0x2F has bit address 0x7F. A bit access is distinguished from a full byte access by
the type of instruction used (bit source or destination operands as opposed to a byte source or destina-
tion).
The MCS-51™ assembly language allows an alternate notation for bit addressing of the form XX.B where
XX is the byte address and B is the bit position within the byte. For example, the instruction:
MOV C, 22.3h
moves the Boolean value at 0x13 (bit 3 of the byte at location 0x22) into the Carry flag.
9.2.1.3. Stack
A programmer's stack can be located anywhere in the 256-byte data memory. The stack area is desig-
nated using the Stack Pointer (SP) SFR. The SP will point to the last location used. The next value pushed
on the stack is placed at SP+1 and then SP is incremented. A reset initializes the stack pointer to location
0x07. Therefore, the first value pushed on the stack is placed at location 0x08, which is also the first regis-
ter (R0) of register bank 1. Thus, if more than one register bank is to be used, the SP should be initialized
to a location in the data memory not being used for data storage. The stack depth can extend up to
256 bytes.
9.2.2. External RAM
There are 8192 bytes or 4096 bytes of on-chip RAM ma pped into the external d ata memory space. All of
these address locations may be accessed using the external move instruction (MOVX) and the data
pointer (DPTR) , or usin g MOVX in dire ct add re ssing mode (su ch as @R1) in combinatio n with th e EMI0CN
register. Additional off-chip memory or memory-mapped devices may be mapped to the external memory

address space and accessed using the external memory interface. See Section “10. External Data Mem-
ory Interface and On-Chip XRAM” on page 130 for further details.
Si102x/3x
130 Rev. 0.3
10. External Data Memory Interface and On-Chip XRAM
An External Memory Interface (EMIF) is available on the Si102x/3x devices, which can be used to access
off-chip data memories and memory-mapped devices connected to the GPIO ports. The external memory
space may be accessed using the external m ove instruction (MOVX) and the data p ointer (DPTR), or using
the MOVX indirec t ad dr e ssin g mod e u sin g R0 or R1. If th e M OVX instruction is used w ith an 8-b it ad dr e ss
operand (such as @R1), then the h igh byte of the 16-bi t a ddress is pr ovided by the Exte rnal Memor y Inte r-
face Control Register (EMI0CN, shown in SFR Definition 10.1).
Note: The MOVX instruction can also be us ed for writing to the flash memory. See Section “18. Flash Memory” on
page 250 for details. The MOVX instruction accesses XRAM by default.
10.1. Accessing XRAM
The XRAM memory space is accessed using the MOVX instruction. The MOVX instruction has two forms,
both of which use an indirect addressing method. The first method uses the Data Pointer, DPTR, a 16-bit
register which contains the effective address of the XRAM location to be read from or written to. The sec-
ond method uses R0 or R1 in combination with the EMI0CN register to generate the effective XRAM
address. Examples of both of these methods are given below.
10.1.1. 16-Bit MOVX Example
The 16-bit form of the MOVX instruction accesses the memory location pointed to by the contents of the
DPTR register. The following series of instructions reads the value of the byte at address 0x1234 into the
accumulator A:
MOV DPTR, #1234h ; load DPTR with 16-bit address to read (0x1234)
MOVX A, @DPTR ; load contents of 0x1234 into accumulator A
The above example uses the 16-bit immediate MOV instruction to set the contents of DPTR. Alternately,
the DPTR can be accessed thro ugh the SFR reg ister s DPH, which contains the upper 8-bits of DPTR, and
DPL, which contains the lower 8-bits of DPTR.
10.1.2. 8-Bit MOVX Example
The 8-bit form of the MOVX instruction uses the content s of the EMI0CN SF R to dete rmine the u pper 8-bit s
of the effective address to be accessed and the contents of R0 or R1 to determine the lower 8-bits of the
effective address to be accessed. The following series of instructions read the contents of the byte at
address 0x1234 into the accumulator A.
MOV EMI0CN, #12h ; load high byte of address into EMI0CN
MOV R0, #34h ; load low byte of address into R0 (or R1)
MOVX a, @R0 ; load contents of 0x1234 into accumulator A

10.2. Configuring the External Memory Interface
Configuring the EMIF consists of five steps:
1. Configure the output mo des of the associated port pins as either push-pull or op en-drain (push-pull is
most common). The input mode of the associated port pins should be set to digital (reset value).
2. Configure port latches to “park” the EMIF pins in a dormant state (usually by setting them to logic 1).
3. Select Multiplexed mode or Non-Multiplexed mode.
4. Select the memory mode (on-chip only, split mode without bank select, split mode with bank select,
or off-chip only).
5. Set up timing to interface with off-chip memory or peripherals.
Each of these five steps is explained in detail in the following sections. The port selection, Multiplexed
mode selection, and mode bits are located in the EMI0CF register shown in SFR Definition .
10.3. Port Configuration
The EMIF appears on Ports 3, 4, 5, and 6 when it is used for off-chip memory access. The EMIF and the
LCD cannot be used simultaneously. When using EMIF, all pins on Ports 3-6 may only be used for EMIF
purposes or as general purpose I/O. The EMIF pinout is shown in Table 10.1 on page 132.
The EMIF claims the associated port pins for memory operations ONLY during the execution of an off-chip
MOVX instruction. Once the MOVX instruction has completed, control of the port pins reverts to the port
latches or to the crossbar settings for those pins. See Section “27. Port Input/Output ” on pag e 358 for more
information about the crossbar and port operation and configuration. The port latches should be explic-
itly configured to “park” the EMIF pins in a dormant state, most commonly by setting them to a
logic 1.
During the execution of the MOVX instruction, the EMIF will explicitly disable the drivers on all port pins
that are acting as inputs (Data[7:0] during a READ operation, for example). The output mode of the port
pins (whether the pin is configured as open-drain or push-pull) is unaffected by the EMIF operation, and
remains controlled by the PnMDOUT re gisters. In most cases, the output mode s of all EMIF pins should be
configured for push-pull mode.
The Si102x/3x devices support both the Multiplexed a nd Non-Multiplexed modes.

10.4. Multiplexed and Non-Multiplexed Selection
The External Memory Interface is capable of acting in a Multiplexed mode or Non-Multiplexed mode,
depending on the state of the EMD2 (EMI0CF.4) bit.
10.4.1. Multiplexed Configuration
In Multiplexed mode, the data bus and the lower 8 bits of the address bus share the same port pins:
AD[7:0]. In this mode, an external latch (74HC373 or equivalent logic gate) is used to hold the lower 8 bits
of the RAM address. The external latch is controlled by the ALE (Address Latch Enable) signal, which is
driven by the EMIF logic. An example of a Multiplexed configuration is shown in Figure 10.1.
In Multiplexed m ode, th e exte rnal MOVX op eratio n can be broken into two phases delineated by the state
of the ALE signal. During the first phase, ALE is high and the lower 8 bits of the address bus are presented
to AD[7:0]. During this phase, the address latch is configured such that the Q outputs reflect the states of
the D inputs. When ALE falls, signaling the beginning of the second phase, the address latch outputs
remain fixed and are no longer dependent on the latch inputs. Later in th e second phase, the dat a bus con -
trols the state of the AD[7:0] port at the time RD or WR is asserted.
See Section “10.6.2. Multiplexed Mode” on page 143 for more info rm atio n.
Figure 10.1. Multiplexed Configuration Example
10.4.2. Non-Multiplexed Configuration
In Non-Multiplexed mode, the data bus and the address bus pins are not shared. An example of a non-
multiplexed configuration is shown in Figure 10.2. See Section “10.6.1. Non-Multiplexed Mode” on
page 140 for more information about non-multiplexed operation.

10.5.1. Internal XRAM Only
When bits EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 00, all MOVX instructions will target the internal XRAM space on the
device. Memory accesses to addresses beyond the populated space will wrap on 8 kB boundaries. As an
example, the addresses 0x2000 and 0x4000 both evaluate to address 0x0000 in on-chip XRAM space.
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine the high-b yte of the effective address
and R0 or R1 to determine the low-byte of the effective address.
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of the 16-bit DPTR to determine the effective address.
10.5.2. Split Mode without Bank Select
When bit EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to 01, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and off-
chip space.
Effective addresses below the internal XRAM size boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.
Effective addresses above the internal XRAM size boundary will access off-chip space.
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is on-
chip or off-chip. However, in the “No Bank Select” mode, an 8-bit MOVX operation will not drive the
upper 8-bits A[15:8] of the Add re ss Bus du ring an off-chip acces s . This allo ws th e use r to ma nip ulate
the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly via the port latches. This behavior is in
contrast with “S plit Mode with Bank Select” described below. The lowe r 8-bits of the Add ress Bus A[7:0]
are driven, determined by R0 or R1.
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip
or off-chip, and unlike 8-bit MOVX operations, the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven
during the off-chip transaction .
10.5.3. Split Mode with Bank Select
When EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 10, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and off-
chip space.
Effective addresses below the internal XRAM size boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.
Effective addresses above the internal XRAM size boundary will access off-chip space.
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is on-
chip or of f-chip. The up per 8-bi ts of the Address Bus A[15:8] are determined by EMI0CN, and the lower
8-bit s of the Address Bus A[7:0] ar e determined by R0 or R1. All 16-bit s of the Add ress Bus A[15:0] are
driven in “Bank Select” mode.
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip
or off-chip, and the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.
10.5.4. External Only
When EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 11, all MOVX oper ations are dir ected to of f- chip spa ce. On-chip XRAM is not
visible to the CPU. This mode is useful for accessing off-chip memory located between 0x0000 and the
internal XRAM size boundary.
8-bit MOVX operations ignore the contents of EMI0CN. The upper Address bits A[15:8] are not driven
(identical behavior to an off-chip access in “Split Mode without Bank Select” described above). This
allows the user to manipulate the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly. The lower
8-bits of the effective address A[7:0] are determined by the contents of R0 or R1.
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine the effective address A[15:0]. The full
16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0 ] ar e dr ive n du rin g the off-chip trans act ion .

10.6. Timing
The timing parameters of the EMIF can be configured to enable connection to devices having different
setup and hold time requirements. The address setup time, address hold time, RD and WR strobe widths,
and in Multiplexed mode, the width of the ALE pulse are all programmable in units of SYSCLK periods
through EMI0TC, shown in SFR Definition 10.3, and EMI0CF[1:0].
The timing for an off-chip MOVX instruction can be calculated by adding 4 SYSCLK cycles to the timing
parameters defined by the EMI0TC register. Assuming Non-Multiplexed operation, the minimum execution
time for an off-chip XRAM operation is 5 SYSCLK cycles (1 SYSCLK for RD or WR pulse + 4 SYSCLKs).
For multiplexed operations, the Address Latch Enable signal will require a minimum of 2 additional SYS-
CLK cycles. Therefore, the minimum execution time for an off-chip XRAM operation in Multiplexed mode is
7 SYSCLK cycles (2 for /ALE + 1 for RD or WR + 4). The programmable setup and hold times default to
the maximum delay settings after a reset. Table 10.2 lists the ac parameters for the EMIF, and Figure 10.4
through Figure 10.9 show the timing diagrams for the dif ferent EMIF modes and MOVX operations.

11. Direct Memory Access (DMA0)
An on-chip direct memory access (DMA0) is included on the Si102x/3x devices. The DMA0 subsystem
allows autonomous variable-length data transfers between XRAM and peripheral SFR registers without
CPU intervention. During DMA0 operation, the CPU is free to perform some other tasks. In order to save
total system power consumption, the CPU and flash can be powered down. DMA0 improves the system
performance and efficiency with high data throughput peripherals.
DMA0 contains seven independent channels, common control registers, and a DMA0 Engine (see
Figure 11.1). Each channe l includes a regist er that assigns a peripheral to the channel, a channel control
register, and a set of SFRs that include XRAM address information and SFR address information used by
the channel durin g a da ta transfe r. The DMA0 architecture is described in detail in Section 11.1.
The DMA0 in Si102x/3x devices supports four peripherals: AES0, ENC0, CRC1, and SPI1. Peripherals
with DMA0 capability should be configured to work with the DMA0 through their own registers. The DMA0
provides up to seven channels, and each channel can be configured for one of nine possible data transfer
functions:
XRAM to ENC0L/M/H
ENC0L/M/H sfrs to XRAM
XRAM to CRC1IN sfr
XRAM to SPI1DAT sfr
SPI1DAT sfr to XRAM
XRAM to AES0KIN sfr
XRAM to AES0BIN sfr
XRAM to AES0XIN sfr
AES0YOUT sfr to XRAM
The DMA0 subsystem signals the MCU through a set of interrupt service routine flags. Interrupts can be
generated when the DMA0 transfers half of the data length or full data length on any channel.
Si102x/3x
148 Rev. 0.3
Figure 11.1. DMA0 Block Diagram
11.1. DMA0 Architecture
The first step in configuring a DMA0 channel is to select the desired channel for data transfer using
DMA0SEL[2:0] bits (DMA0SEL). After setting the DMA0 channel, firmware can address channel-specific
registers such as DMA0NCF, DMA0NBAH/L, DMA0N AOH/L, and DMA0NSZH /L. Once firmware selects a
channel, the subsequent SFR configuration applies to the DMA0 transfer of that selected channel.
Each DMA0 channel consists of an SFR assigning the channel to a peripheral, a channel control register
and a set of SFRs that describe XRAM and SFR addresses to be used during data transfer (See
Figure 11.1). The peripheral assignment bits of DMA0nCF select one of the eight data transfer functions.
The selected channel can ch oo se th e d esire d func tion by writing to the PERIPH[2:0] bits (DMA0NCF[2:0]).
The control register DMA0NCF of each channel configures the endian-ness of the data in XRAM, stall
enable, full-length interrupt enable and mid-point interrupt enable. When a channel is sta lled by setting the
STALL bit (DMA0NCF.5), DMA0 transfers in progress will not be aborted, but new DMA0 transfers will be
blocked until the stall status of the channel is reset. After the stall bit is set, software should poll the corre-
sponding DMA0BUSY to verify that there are no more DMA transfers for that channel.
The memory interface configuration SFRs of a channel define the linear region of XRAM involved in the
transfer through a 12-bit base address register DMA0NBAH:L, a 10-bit address offset register
DMA0NAOH:L and a 10-bit data transfer size DMA0NSZH:L. The effective memory address is the address
involved in the current DMA0 transaction.
Effective Memory Address = Base Address + Address Offset
The address offset serves as byte counter. The address offset should be always less than data transfer
length. The address offset increments by one after each byte transferre d. For DMA0 configuration of any
channel, address offsets of active channels should be reset to 0 before DMA0 transfers occu r.

Data transfer size DMA0NSZH:L defines the maximum number of bytes for the DMA0 transfer of the
selected channel. If the address offset reaches data transfer size, the full-length interrupt flag bit CHn_INT
(DMA0INT) of the selected channel will be asserted. Similarly, the mid-point interrupt flag bit CHn_MINT is
set when the address offset is equal to half of data transfer size if the transfer size is an even number or
when the address offset is equal to half of the transfer size plus one if the transfer size is an odd number.
Interrupt flags must be cleared by software so that the next DMA0 data transfer can proceed.
The DMA0 subsystem permits data transfer between SFR registers and XRAM. The DMA0 subsystem
executes its task based on settings of a channel’s control and memory interface configuration SFRs. When
data is copied from XRAM to SFR registers, it takes two cycles for DMA0 to read from XRAM and the SFR
write occurs in the second cycle. If more than one byte is involved, a pipeline is used. When data is copied
from SFR registers to XRAM, the DMA0 only requires one cycle for one byte transaction.
The selected DMA0 channel for a peripheral should be enabled through the enable bits CHn_EN
(DMA0EN.n) to allow the DMA0 to transfer the data. When the DMA0 is transferr ing da t a on a channel, the
busy status bit of the channel CHn_BUSY (DMA0BUSY.n) is set. During the transaction, writes to
DMA0NSZH:L, DMA0NBAH:L, and DMA0NAOH:L are disabled.
Each peripheral is responsible for asserting the peripheral transfer requests necessary to service the par-
ticular peripheral. Some peripherals may have a complex state machine to manage the peripheral
requests. Please refer to the DMA enabled peripheral chapters for additional information (AES0, CRC1,
ENC0 and SPI1).
Besides reporting transaction status of a channel, DMA0BUSY can be used to force a DMA0 transfer on
an already configured channel by setting the CHn_BUSY bit (DMA0BUSY.n).
The DMA0NMD SFR has a wrap bit that supports address offset wrapping. The size register DMA0NSZ
sets the transfer size. N ormally the address offset starts at zero and increase s until it reaches size minu s
one. At this point the transfer is complete and the interrupt bit will be set. When the wrap bit is set, the
address offset will automatically be reset to zero and tr ansfers will continue as long as the peripheral keeps
requesting data.
The wrap feature can be used to support key wrapping for the AES0 module. Normally the same key is
used over and over with additional data blocks. So the wrap bit should be set when using the XRAM to
AES0KIN request. This feature supports multiple-block encryption operations.
11.2. DMA0 Arbitration
11.2.1. DMA0 Memory Access Arbitration
If both DMA0 and CPU attempt to access SFR register or XRAM at the same time, the CPU pre-empts the
DMA0 module. DMA0 will be stalled until CPU completes its bus activity.
11.2.2. DMA0 Channel Arbitration
Multiple DMA0 channels can request transfer simultaneously, but only one D MA0 channel will be granted
the bus to transfer th e data. Ch annel 0 has the highes t priority. DMA0 channels are serviced based on their
priority. A higher priority channel is serviced first. Channel arbitration occurs at the end of the data transfer
granularity (transaction boundary) of the DMA. When there is a DMA0 request at the transaction boundary
from higher priority channel, lower priority ones will be stalled until the highest priority one completes its
transaction. So, for 16-bit transfers, the transaction boundary is at every 2 bytes.
11.3. DMA0 Operation in Low Power Modes
DMA0 remains functional in normal active, low power active, idle, low power idle modes but not in sleep or
suspend mode. CPU will wait for DMA0 to complete all pending requests before it enters sleep mode.
When the system wakes up from suspend or sleep mode to normal active mode, pending DMA0 interrupts
will be serviced according to priority of channels. DMA0 stalls when CPU is in debug mode.
Si102x/3x
150 Rev. 0.3
11.4. Transfer Configuration
The following steps are required to configure one of the DMA0 channels for operation:
1. Select the channel to be configured by writing DMA0SEL.
2. Specify th e da ta transfer fu nct i on by writ ing DMA0NCF. This register also specifies the endian-ness
of the data in XRAM and enables full or mid-point interrupts.
3. Configure the wrapping mode by writing to DMA0NMD. Setting this bit will automatically reset the
address offset after each completed transfer.
4. Specify the base address in XRAM for the transfer by writing DMA0NBAH:L.
5. Specify the size of the transfer in bytes by writing DMA0NSZH:L.
6. Reset the address offset counter by writing 0 to DMA0NAOH:L.
7. Enable the DMA0 channel by writing 1 to the appropriate bit in DMA0EN.

12. Cyclic Redundancy Check Unit (CRC 0)
Si102x/3x devices include a cyclic redundancy check unit (CRC0) that can perform a CRC using a 16-bit or
32-bit polynomial. CRC0 accepts a stream of 8-bit dat a wr itten to the CRC0IN re gister. CRC0 post s the 16-
bit or 32-bit result to an internal register. The internal result register m ay be accessed indir ectly using the
CRC0PNT bits and CRC0DAT register, as shown in Figure 12.1. CRC0 also has a bit reverse register for
quick data manipulation.

12.1. 16-bit CRC Algorithm
The CRC0 unit calculates the 16-bit CRC MSB-first, using a polynomial of 0x1021. The following
describes the 16 -b it CRC algo rith m perfo rm e d by th e ha rd wa re :
1. XOR the most-significant byte of the current CRC resu lt with the input byte. If this is the first iteration
of the CRC unit, the current CRC result will be the set initial value (0x0000 or 0xFFFF).
a. If the MSB of the CRC result is set, left-shift the CRC result, and then XOR the CRC result with
the polynomial (0x1021).
b. If the MSB of the CRC result is not set, left-shift the CRC result.
2. Repeat at Step 2a for the number of input bits (8).

The 16-bit Si102x/3x CRC algorithm can be describe d by the following code:
unsigned short UpdateCRC (unsigned short CRC_acc, unsigned char CRC_input)
{
unsigned char i; // loop counter
#define POLY 0x1021
// Create the CRC "dividend" for polynomial arithmetic (binary arithmetic
// with no carries)
CRC_acc = CRC_acc ^ (CRC_input << 8);
// "Divide" the poly into the dividend using CRC XOR subtraction
// CRC_acc holds the "remainder" of each divide
//
// Only complete this division for 8 bits since input is 1 byte
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
// Check if the MSB is set (if MSB is 1, then the POLY can "divide"
// into the "dividend")
if ((CRC_acc & 0x8000) == 0x8000)
{
// if so, shift the CRC value, and XOR "subtract" the poly
CRC_acc = CRC_acc << 1;
CRC_acc ^= POLY;
}
else
{
// if not, just shift the CRC value
CRC_acc = CRC_acc << 1;
}
}
// Return the final remainder (CRC value)
return CRC_acc;

12.2. 32-bit CRC Algorithm
The CRC0 unit calculates the 32-bit CRC using a polynomial of 0x04C11DB7. The CRC-32 algorithm is
reflected, meaning that all of the input byte s and the final 32-bit output are bit-rever sed in the processing
engine. The following is a description of a simplified CRC algorithm that produces results identical to the
hardware:
Step 1. XOR the least-significant byte of the current CRC result with the input byte. If this is the
first iteration of the CRC unit, the current CRC result will be the set initial value
(0x00000000 or 0xFFFFFFFF).
Step 2. Right-shift the CRC result.
Step 3. If the LSB of the CRC result is set, XOR the CRC result with the reflected polynomial
(0xEDB88320).
Step 4. Repeat at Step 2 for the number of input bits (8).
For example, the 32-bit CRC algorithm can be described by the following code:
unsigned long UpdateCRC (unsigned long CRC_acc, unsigned char CRC_input)
{
unsigned char i; // loop counter
#define POLY 0xEDB88320 // bit-reversed version of the poly 0x04C11DB7
// Create the CRC "dividend" for polynomial arithmetic (binary arithmetic
// with no carries)
CRC_acc = CRC_acc ^ CRC_input;
// "Divide" the poly into the dividend using CRC XOR subtraction
// CRC_acc holds the "remainder" of each divide
//
// Only complete this division for 8 bits since input is 1 byte
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
// Check if the MSB is set (if MSB is 1, then the POLY can "divide"
// into the "dividend")
if ((CRC_acc & 0x00000001) == 0x00000001)
{
// if so, shift the CRC value, and XOR "subtract" the poly
CRC_acc = CRC_acc >> 1;
CRC_acc ^= POLY;
}
else
{
// if not, just shift the CRC value
CRC_acc = CRC_acc >> 1;
}
}
// Return the final remainder (CRC value)
return CRC_acc;
}
The following table lists several input values and the associated outputs using the 32-bit CRC algorithm
(an initial value of 0xFFFFFFFF is used):

12.3. Preparing for a CRC Calculation
To prepare CRC0 for a CRC calculation, software should select the desired polynomial and set the initial
value of the result. Two polynomials are available: 0x1021 (16-bit) and 0x04C11DB7 (32-bit). The CRC0
result may be initialized to one of two values: 0x00000000 or 0xFFFFFFFF. The following steps can be
used to initialize CRC0.
1. Select a polynomial (Set CRC0SEL to 0 for 32-bit or 1 for 16-bit).
2. Select the initial result value (Set CRC0VAL to 0 for 0x00000000 or 1 for 0xFFFFFFFF).
3. Set the result to its initial value (Write 1 to CRC0INIT).
12.4. Performing a CRC Calculation
Once CRC0 is initialized, the input data stream is sequentially written to CRC0IN, one byte at a time. The
CRC0 result is automatically updated af ter each byte is written . The CRC engine may also be configur ed to
automatica lly perform a CRC on one or more flash sectors. The following steps can be used to automati-
cally perform a CRC on flash memory.
1. Prepare CRC0 for a CRC calculation as shown above.
2. If necessary, set the IFBANK bits in the PSBANK for the desired code bank.
3. Write the index of the starting page to CRC0AUTO.
4. Set the AUTOEN bit in CRC0AUTO.
5. Write the num be r of flash sect or s to perfo r m in the CRC calc ula tio n to CRC0C N T.
Note: Each flash sector is 1024 bytes.
6. Write any value to CRC0CN (or OR its contents with 0x00) to initiate the CRC calculation. The
CPU will not execute code any additional code until the CRC operation completes.
7. Clear the AUTOEN bit in CRC0AUTO.
8. Read the CRC result using the procedure below.
Setting the IFBANK bits in the PSBANK SFR is only necessary when accessing the upper banks on
128 kB code bank devices (Si1020/24/30/34). Multiple CRCs are required to cover the entire 128 kB Flash
array. When writing to the PSBANK SFR, the code initiating the auto CRC of flash must be executing from
the common ar ea .
12.5. Accessing the CRC0 Result
The internal CRC0 result is 32-bits (CRC0SEL = 0b) or 16-bits (CRC0SEL = 1b). The CRC0PNT bits
select the byte that is t argeted by re ad and write ope rations on CRC0DAT and increment after each read or
write. The calculation result will remain in the internal CR0 result register until it is set, overwritten, or addi-
tional data is written to CRC0IN.

CRC0 includes hardware to reverse the bit order of each bit in a byte as shown in Figure 12.2. Each byte
of data written to CRC0FLIP is read back bit reversed. For example, if 0xC0 is written to CRC0FLIP, the
data read back is 0x03. Bit reversal is a useful mathematical function used in algorithms such as the FFT.

13. DMA-Enabled Cyclic Redundancy Check Module (CRC1)
Si102x/3x devices include a DMA-enabled cyclic redundancy check module (CRC1) that can perform a
CRC of data using an arbitrary 16-bit polynomial. This peripheral can compute CRC results using direct
DMA access to data in XRAM.
Using a DMA transfer provides much higher data throughput than using SFR access. Since the CPU can
be in Idle mode while the CRC is calculated, CRC1 also provides substantial power savings. The CRC1
module is not restricted to a limit ed list of fixed polynomials. Instead, the user can specify any valid 16-bit
polynomial.
CRC1 accepts a stream of 8-bit dat a written to the CRC1IN register. A DMA tran sfer can be used to auton-
omously transfer data from XRAM to the CRC1IN SFR. The CRC1 module may also be used with SFR
access by writing directly to the CRC1IN SFR. After each byte is written, the CRC resultant is updated on
the CRC1OUTH:L SFRs. After writing all data bytes, the final CRC results are available from the
CRC1OUTH:L registers. The final results may be flipped or inverted using the FLIP and INV bits in the
CRC1CN SFR. The initial seed value can be reset to 0x0000 or seeded with 0xFFFF.
13.1. Polynomial Specification
The arbitrary polynomial should be written to the CRC1POLH:L SFRs before writing data to the CRCIN
SFR.
A valid 16-bit CRC polynomial must have an x16 term and an x0 term. Theoretically, a 16-bit polynomial
might have 17 terms total. However, the polynomial SFR is only 16-bits wide. The convention used is to
omit the x16 term. The polynomial should be written in big endian bit orde r. The most significant bit corre-
sponds to the highest order term. Thus, the most significant bit in the CRC1POLL SFR repres ents the x15
term, and the least significant bi t in the CRC1POLH SFR r epresent s the x0 ter m. The least significant bit of
CRC1POLL should always be set to one. The CRC results are undefined if this bit is cleared to a zero.
Figure 13.1 depicts the polynomial representation for the CRC-16-CCIT polynomial x16 + x12 + x5+ 1, or
0x1021.

170 Rev. 0.3
13.2. Endianness
The CRC1 module is optimized to process big endian data. Data written to the CRC1IN SFR should be in
the normal bit order with the most significant bit stored in bit 7 and the least significant bit stored in bit 0.
The input data is shifted left into the CRC engine. The CRC1 module will process one byte at a time and
update the results for each byte. When used with the DMA, the first byte to be written should be stored in
the lowest address.
Some communications systems may transmit data least significan t bi t first and may requ ire calculation o f a
CRC in the transmission bit order. In this case, the bits must be flipped, using the CRC0FLIP SFR, before
writing to the CRC1IN SFR. The final 16-bit result may be flipped using the flip bit in the CRC1CN SFR.
Note that the polynomial is always written in big endian bit order.
Rev. 0.3 171
Si102x/3x
13.3. CRC Seed Value
Normally, the initial value or the CRC result s is cleared to 0x0000. Ho weve r, a CRC might be specified with
an initial value preset to all ones (0xFFFF).
The steps to preset the CRC with all ones is as follows:
1. Set the SEED bit to 1.
2. Reset the CRC1 module by setting the CLR bit to 1 in CRC1CN.
3. Clear the SEED bit to 0.
The CRC1 module is not ready to calculate a CRC using a CRC seed value of 0xFFFF.
13.4. Inverting the Final Value
Sometimes it is necessary to invert the final value. This will take the ones complement of the final result.
The steps to flip the final CRC results are as follows:

3. Write all data bytes to CRC1IN.
4. Set the INV bit in the CRC1CN SFR to invert the final results.
5. Read the final CRC results from CRC1OUTH:L.
Clear the FLIP bit in the CRC1CN SFR.
13.5. Flipping the Final Value
The steps to flip the final CRC results are as follows:
1. Clear the CRC module by setting the CLR bit in CRC1CN SFR.
2. Write the polynomial to CRC1POLH:L.
3. Write all data bytes to CRC1IN.
4. Set the FLIP bit in the CRC1CN SFR to flip the final results.
5. Read the final CRC results from CRC1OUTH:L.
6. Clear the FLIP bit in the CRC1CN SFR.
The flip operation will exchange bit 15 with bit 0, bit 14 with bit 1, bit 13 with bit 2, and so on.

14. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Peripheral
The Si102x/3x devices include a hardware implementation of the Advanced Encryption Standard Block
Cipher as specified in NIST publication FIPS 197 “Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), November 2001.
The Rijndael encryption algorithm was chosen by NIST for the AES block cipher. The AES block cipher
can be used to encrypt data for wireless communications. Data can be encrypted before transmission and
decrypted upon reception. This provides securi ty for private networks.
The AES block cipher is a Symmetric key encryption algorithm. Symmetric Key encryption relies on secret
keys that are known by both the sender and receiver. The decryption key may be obtained using a simple
transformation of the encryption key. AES is not a public key encryption algorithm.
The AES block Cipher uses a fixed 16 byte block size. So data less than 16 bytes must be padded with
zeros to fill the entire block. Wireless data must be padded and transmitted in 16-byte blocks. The entire
16-byte block must be transmitted to successfully decrypt the information.
The AES engine supports key lengths of 128-bits, 192-bits, or 256-bits. A key size of 128-bits is sufficient
to protect the confidentiality of classified secret information. The Advanced Encryption Standard was
designed to be secure for at least 20 to 30 years. The 128-bit key provides fastest encryption. The 192-bit
and 256-bit key lengths may be used to protect highly sensitive classified top secret information.
Since symmetric key encryption relies on secret keys, the security of the data can only be protected if the
key remains secr et. If the encr yption key is stored in flash memory, then the entire flash sh ould be locked
to ensure the encryption key cannot be discovered. (See flash security.)
The basic AES block cipher is implemented in hardware. This hardware accelerator provides performance
that may be 1000 times faster than a software implementation. The higher performance translates to a
power savings for low-power wireless application s.
The AES block cipher, or block cipher modes based on the AES block cipher, is used in many wireless
standards. These include several IEEE standards in the wireless PAN (802.15) and wireless LAN (802.11)
working groups.

14.1.1. AES Encryption/Decryption Core
The AES Encryption/Decryption Core is a digital implementation of the Advanced Encryption Standard
block cipher. Th e core may be used fo r eith er encr ypti on or decryption. Encryp tion may be selecte d by se t-
ting bit 5 in the AES0BCFG SFR. When configured for encryption, plaintext is written to the AES Core data
input and the encrypted ciphertext is read from the Data Output. Conversely, when configured for Decryp-
tion, encrypted ciphertext is written to the data input and decrypted plaintext is read form the Data Output.
When configured for Encryption, the encryption key must be written to the Key Input. When configured for
decryption, the decryption key must be written to the Key Input.
The AES core may also be used to generate a decryption key from a known encryption key. To generate a
decryption key, the core must be configured for encryption, the encryption key is written to the Key Input,
and the Decryption Key may be read from the Key output.
AES is a symmetric key encryption algorithm. This means that the decryption key may be generated from
an encry pt ion ke y u s i ng a simple algorithm. Both ke ys must remain secret. If security of the encryption key
is compromised, one can easily generate the decryption key.
Since it is easy to generate the decryption key, only the encryption key may be stored in Flash memory.
14.1.2. Data SFRs
The data SFRs are used for the data flow into and out of the AES module. When used with the DMA, the
DMA itself will write to and read from the data SFRs. When used in manual mode, the data must be written
to the data SFRs one byte at a time in the proper sequence.
The AES0KIN SFR provides a data path for the AES core Key input. For an encryption operation, the
encryption key is written to the AES0KIN SFR, either by the DMA or direct SFR access. For a decryption
operation, the decryption key must be written to the AES0KIN SFR.
The AES0BIN is the direct data input SFR for the AES block. For a simple encryption operation, the plain-
text is written to the AES0BIN SFR – either by the DMA or direct SFR access. For decryption, the cipher-
text to be decrypted is written to the AES0BIN SFR. The AES0BIN SFR is also used together with the
AES0XIN when an exclusive OR operation is required on the input data path.
The AES0XIN SFR provides an input data p ath to the exclusive OR operator. The AES0XIN is not used for
simple AES block cipher encryption or decryption. It is only use for block cipher modes that require an
exclusive OR operator on the input or output data.
The AES core requires that the input data bytes are written in a specific order. When used with the DMA,
this is mana ged by the inte rnal state mach ine. When u sing dire ct S FR acce ss, e ach of inp ut d ata must be
written one byte at a time to each SFR in this particular order.
1. Write AES0BIN
2. Write AES0XIN (optional)
3. Write AES0KIN
This sequence is repeated 16 times. When using a 192-bit or 256-bit key length, the remaining additional
key bytes are written after writing all sixteen of the AES0BIN and AES0XIN bytes.
After encryption or decryption is completed, the resulting data may be read from the AES0YOUT. Option-
ally, exclusive OR data may be written to the AES0XIN SFR before reading the AES0YOUT SFR.
1. Write AES0XIN (optional)
2. Read AES0YOUT

Si102x/3x
14.1.3. Configuration sfrs
The AES Module has two configuration SFRs. The AES0BCFG SFR is used to configure the AES core.
Bits 0 and 1 are used to select the key size. The AES core supports 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit encryption.
Bit 2 selects encrypt or decrypt. The AES enable bit (bit 3) is used to enable the AES module and start new
encryption operation. The AES DONE bit (bit 5) is the AES interrupt flag that signals a block of data has
been completely encrypted or decrypted and is ready to be read from the AES0YOUT SFR. Note that the
AES DONE interrupt is not normally used when the AES module is used with the DMA. Instead, the DMA
interrupt is used to signal that the encrypted or decrypted data has been transferred completely to memory.
The DMA done interrupt is normally o nly used with dir ec t SFR ac cess.
The AES0DCFG SFR is used to select the data path for the AES module. Bits 0 through 2 are used to
select the input and output multiplexer configuration. The AES data path should be configured prior to initi-
ating a new encryption or decryption operation.
14.1.4. Input Multiplexer
The input multiplexer is used to select either the contents of the AES0BIN SFR or the contents of the
AES0BIN SFR exclusive ORed with the contents of the AES0XIN SFR. The exclusive OR input data path
provides support for CBC encryption.
14.1.5. Output Multiplexer
The output multiplexer selects the data source for the AES0YOUT SFR. The three possible sources are
the AES Core data output, the AES core key output, and the AES core data output exclusive ORed with
the AES0XIN SFR.
The AES core data output is used for simple encryption and decryption.
The exclusive OR output data path provides support for CBC mode decryption and CTR mode encryp-
tion/decryption. The AES0XIN is the source for both input and output exclusive OR data. When the
AES0XIN is used with the input exclusive OR data path, the AEXIN data is written in sequence with the
AES0BIN data. When used with the output XRO data path, the AES0XIN data is written after the encryp-
tion or decryption operation is complete.
The Key output is used to generate an inverse key. To generate a decryption key from an encryption key,
the AES core should be configured for an encryption operation. To generate an encryption key from a
decryption key, the AES core should be configured for a decryption operation.
14.1.6. Internal State Ma c hi n e
The AES module has an internal state machine that manages the data flow. The internal state machine
accommodates the two different usage scenarios. When using the DMA, the internal state machine will
send peripheral requests to the DMA requesting the DMA to transfer data from XRAM to the AES module
input SFRs. Upon the completion of one block of data, the AES module will send peripheral requests
requesting data to be transferred from the AES0YOUT SFR to XRAM. These peripheral request s are man-
aged by the internal state machine.
When not using the DMA, data must be written and read in a specific order. The DMA state machine will
advance with eac h by te writte n or read .
The internal state machine may be reset by clearing the enable bit in the AESBGFG SFR. Clearing the
enable bit before encryption or decryption operation will ensure that the state machine starts at the proper
state.
When encrypting or decrypting multiple blocks it is not necessary to disable the AES module between
blocks, as long as the proper sequence of events is obeyed.

14.2. Key Inversion
The key output is used to generate an inverse key. To generate a decryption key from an encryption key,
the AES core should be configured for an encryption operation. Dummy data and the encryption key are
written to the AES0BIN and AES0KIN SFRs respectively. The output multiplexer should be configured to
output the decryption key to the AES0YOUT SFR.
Figure 14.2. Key Inversion Data Flow
The dummy data may be zeros or arbitrary data. The content of the dummy data does not matter. But six-
teen bytes of data must be written to the AES0BIN SFR to generate the inverse key.

Si102x/3x
182 Rev. 0.3
The key and data to be encrypted should be stored as an array with the first byte to be encrypted at the
lowest address. The value of the big endian bit of the DMACF0 SFR does not matter. The AES block uses
only one byte tran sf er s, so th er e is no particular endianness associated with a one byte transfer.
The dummy data can be zeros or any value. The encrypted data is discarded, so the value of the dummy
data does not mater.
It is not strictly required to use DMA channels 0, 1, and 2. Any three DMA channels may be used. The
internal state machine of the AES module will send the peripheral requests in the required order.
If the other DMA channels are going to be used concurrently with encryption, then only the bits corre-
sponding to the encryption channels should be manipulated in DM0AEN and DMA0NT SFRs.
14.2.2. Key Inversion using SFRs
Normally, the AES block is used with the DMA. This provides the best performance and lowest power con-
sumption. However, it is also possible to use the DMA with direct SFR access. The steps are documented
here for completeness.
Steps to generate the decryption key from the encryption key using SFR access follow:
First configure the AES block for key inversion:
Reset AES module by writing 0x00 to AES0BCFG.
Configure the AES Module data flow for inverse key generation by writing 0x04 to AES0DCFG.
Write key size to bits 1 and 0 of AES0BCFG.
Configure the AES core for encryption by setting bit 2 of AES0BCFG.
Enable the AES core by setting bit 3 of AES0BCFG.

14.2.3. Extended Key Output Byte Order
When using a key length of 128-bits, the key output is in the same order as the bytes were written. When
using an extended key of 192-bits or 256-bits. The extended portion of the key comes out first, before the
first 16-bytes of the extended key.This is illustrated in Table 14.1.

184 Rev. 0.3
14.2.4. Using the DMA to unwrap the extended Key
When used with the DMA, the address offset sfr DMANAOH/L may be manipulated to store the extended
key in the desired order. This requires two DMA transfers for the AES0YOUT channel. When using a 192-
bit key, the DMA0NSZ can be set to 24 bytes and the DMA0NA0 set to 16. This will place the last 8 bytes
of the 192-bit key in the desired location as shown in Table 14.2. The Yout arrow ind icates the address off-
set position after each 8 bytes are transferred. Enabling the WRAP bit in DMA0NMD will reset the
DMA0NAO value after byte 23. Then the DMA0NZ can be reset to 16 for the remaining sixteen bytes.
When using a 256-bit key, DMA0NSZ can be set to 32 and DMA0NAOL set to 16 This will place the last 16
bytes of the 256-bit key in the desired location as shown in Table 14.3. Enabling the WRAP bit in
DMA0NMD will reset the DMA0NAO value after byte 31. Then DMA0NZ can be set to 16 for the remaining
sixteen bytes.

14.3. AES Block Cipher
The basic AES Block Cipher is the basic encryption/decryption algorithm as defined by the NIST st andard.
A clock cipher mode is a method of encrypting and decrypting one block of data. The input d at a and ou tput
data are not manipulated, chained, or exclusive ORed with other data. This simple block cipher mode is
sometimes called the Electronic Code Book (ECB) mode. This mode is illustrated in Figure 14.3
Each operation represents one block (sixteen bytes) of data. The plaintext is the plain unencrypted data.
The ciphertext is the encrypted data. The encryption key and decryption keys are symmetric. The decryp-
tion key is the inverse key of the decryption key. Note that the Encryption operation is not the same as the
decryption operation. Th e two opera tio ns ar e di fferent and the AES core operates differently depending on
whether encr yp tion or de cryption is selected.
Note that each encryption or decryption operation is independent of other operations. Also note that the
same key is used over and over again for each operation.

14.4. AES Block Cipher Data Flo w
The AES0 module data flow for AES Block Cipher encryption and decryption shown in Figure 14.3. The
data flow is the same for encryption and decryption. The AES0DCF SFR is always configured to route the
AES core output to AES0YOUT. The XOR on the input and output paths are not used.
For an encryption operation, the core is configured for an encryption cipher, the encryption key is written to
AES0KIN, the plaintext is written to the AES0BIN SFR. and the ciphertext is read from AES0YOUT.
For a decryption operation, the core is configured for an decryption cipher, the decryption key is written to
AES0KIN, the ciphertext is written to the AES0BIN SFR. and the plaintext is read from AES0YOUT.
The key size is set to the desired key size.

14.6.2. CBC Encryption Initialization Vector Location
The first block to be encrypted uses the initialization vector for the AES0XIN data. Subsequent blocks will
use the encrypted ciphertext from the previous block. The DMA is capable of encrypting multiple bocks. If
the initialization is located at an arbitrary location in XRAM, the DMA base address location will need to be
changed to the start of the encrypted ciphertext after encrypting the first block. However, if the initialization
vector is located in XRAM immediately before the encrypted ciphertext, the pointer will be advanced to the
start of the encrypted ciphertext, and multiple blocks can be encrypted autonomously.

14.6.5. Counter Mode
The Counter (CTR) Mode uses a sequential counter which is incremented after each block. This turns the
block cipher into a stream cipher. This algo rithm is shown inFigure 14.4. Note that the decryption operation
actually uses the encryption key and encryption block cipher. The XOR operation is always on the output
of the cipher. The counter is a 16-byte b lock. Often, several bytes of the counter are initialized to a nonce
(number used once). The last byte of the counter is incremented and propagated. Thus, the counter is
treated as a 16-byte big endian integer.

15. Encoder/Decoder
The Encoder/Decoder consists of three 8-bit data registers, a control register and an encoder/decoder
logic block.
The size of the input data depends on the mode. The input data for Manchester encoding is one byte. For
Manchester decoding it is two bytes. Three-out-of-Six encoding is two bytes. Three-out-of six decoding is
three bytes.
The output size also depends on the mode selected. The input and output data size are shown below:
The input and output da t a is always right justified . So for Manchester mode the input u ses only ENC0L and
the output data is only in ENC0M and ENC0L. ENC0H is not used for Manchester mode

15.1. Manchester Encoding
To encode Manchester Data, first clear the MODE bit for Manchester encoding or decoding.
To encode, one byte of data is written to the data register ENC0L.
Setting the ENC bit will initiate encoding. After encoding, the encoded data will be in ENC0M and ENC0L.
The upper nibble of the input data is encoded and placed in ENC0M. The lower nibble is encoded and
placed in ENC0L.
Note that the input dat a should be rea dable in the dat a register until the encode bit is set. Once the READY
bit is set, the input data has been replaced by the output data.
The ENC and DEC bits are self clearing. The READY bit is not cleared by hardware and must be cleared
manually. The control register does not need to be bit addressable. The READY bit can be cleared while
setting the ENC or DEC bit using a direc t or immediate SFR mov instruction.

15.2. Manchester Decoding
Two bytes of Manchester data are written to ENC0M and ENC0L sfrs. Then the DEC bit is set to initiate
decoding. After decoding the READY bit will be set. If the data is not a valid encoded Manchester data, the
ERROR bit will be set, and the output will be all FFs.
The encoding and decoding process should be symmetric. Data can be written to the ENC0L sfr, then
encoded, then decoding will give the original data.

15.3. Three-out-of-Six Encoding
Three out of six encoding is similar to Manchester encoding. In Three-out-of-Six encoding a nibble is
encoded as a six-bit symbol. Four nibbles are encoded as 24-bits ( three bytes).
Two bytes of data to be encoded are written to ENC0M and ENC0L. The MODE bit is set to 1 for Three-
out-of-Six encoding. Setting the ENC bit will initiate encoding.
After encoding, the three encoded bytes are in ENC2-0.

15.4. Three-out-of-Six Decoding
Three-out-of-Six decoding is a similar inverse process. Three bytes of encod ed data are written to ENC2-
0. The DEC bit is set to initiate decoding. The READY bit will be set when decoding is complete. The
ERROR bit will be set if the input date is not valid Three-out-of-Six data.
The Three-out-of-Six encoder decode process is also symmetric. Two bytes of arbitrary data may be writ-
ten to ENC0M-ENC0L, then encoded, then decoding will yield the original data.

15.5. Encoding/Decoding with SFR Access
The steps to perform a Encode/Decode operation using SFR access with the ENC0 module are as follow:
1. Clear ENC0CN by writing 0x00.
2. Write the input data to ENC0H:M:L.
3. Write the oper ation valu e to ENC0CN setting ENC, DEC, and MODE bits as desired and clearing all
other bits.
a. Write 0x10 for Manchester Decode operation.
b. Write 0x11 for Three-out-of-Six Decode operation.
c. Write 0x20 for Manchester Encode operation.
d. Write 0x21 for Three-out-of-Six Encode operation.
4. Wait on the READY bit in ENC0CN.
5. For a decode operation only, check the ERROR bit in ENC0CN for a decode error.
6. Read the results from ENC0H:M:L.
7. Repeat steps 2-6 for all remaining data.
Note that all of the ENC0 SFRs are on SFR page 0x2. The READY and ERROR must be cleared in
ENC0CN with each operation.
15.6. Decoder Error Interrupt
The Encoder/Decoder peripheral is capable of generating an interrupt on a decoder error. Normally, when
used with the DMA, the DMA will transfer the entire specified transfer size to and from the
Encoder/Decoder peripheral. If a decoder error occurs, decoding will continue until all data has been
decoded. The error bit in the ENC0CN SFR will indicate if an error has occurred anywhere in the DMA
transfer. Some applications will discard the entire packet after a single decoder error. Aborting the decoder
operation at the first decoder error will conserve energy and minimize packet receiver turn-around time.
The decoder interrupt service routine should first stall the ENC0 DMA channels by selecting the ENC0
DMA channels and then setting the STALL bit. Then disable the DMA channels by clearing the relevant
DMA0EN bits. In addition, clear any ENC DMA channel interrupts by clearing the respective bits in
DMA0NINT.
Si102x/3x
214 Rev. 0.3
15.7. Using the ENC0 module with the DMA
The steps for Encoding/Decoding using the DMA are as follows.
1. Clear the ENC module by writing 0x00 to the ENC0CN SFR.
2. Configure the first DMA channel for the XRAM-to-ENC0 input transfer:
a. Disable the first DMA cha n ne l by clea rin g the co rr es po nd in g bit in DM A0E N.
b. Select the first DMA channel by writing to DMA0SEL.
c. Configure the selected DMA channel to use the XRAM-to-ENC0 input peripheral request by
writing 0x00 to DMA0NCF.
d. Set the ENDIAN bit in DMA0NCF to enable big-endian multi-byte DMA transfers.
e. Write 0 to DMA0NMD to disable wrapping.
f. Write the addr e ss of the first byte of input data DMA0NBAH:L.
g. Write the size of the input data transfer in bytes to DMA0NSZH:L.
h. Clear the address offset SFRs DMA0A0H:L.
3. Configure the second DMA channel for the ENC0-to-XRAM outp ut transfer:
a. Disable the second DMA channel by clearing the corresponding bit in DMA0EN.
b. Select the second DMA channel by writing to DMA0SEL.
c. Configure the selected DMA channel to use the SPI1DAT -to- XRAM output peripheral requ est by
writing 0x01 to DMA0NCF.
d. Set the ENDIAN bit in DMA0NCF to enable big-endian multi-byte DMA transfers.
e. Enable DMA interrupts for the second channel by setting bit 7 of DMA0NCF.
f. Write 0 to DMA0NMD to disable wrapping.
g. Write the address for the first byte of the output data to DMA0NBAH:L.
h. Write the size of the output data transfer in bytes to DMA0NSZH:L.
i. Clear the address offset SFRs DMA0A0H:L.
j. Enable the interrupt on th e second channel by setting the corr esponding bit in DMA0INT.
4. Clear the interrupt bits in DMA0INT for both channels.
5. Enable DMA interrupts by setting bit 5 of EIE2.
6. If desired for a decode operation, enable the ERROR interrupt bit by setting bit 6 of EIE2.
7. Write the operation value to ENC0CN setting ENC, DEC, and MODE bits for the desir ed operation.
The DMA bit and ENDIAN bits must be set. The READY bits and ERROR bits must be cleared.
a. Write 0x16 for Manchester Decode operation.
b. Write 0x17 for Three-out-of-Six Decode operation.
c. Write 0x26 for Manchester Encode operation.
d. Write 0x27 for Three-out-of-Six Encode operation.
8. Wait on the DMA interrupt.
9. Clear the DMA enables in the DMA0EN SFR.
10. Clear the DMA interr up ts in the DMA0INT SFR.
11. For a decod e operation only, check the ERROR bit in ENC0CN for a d e code error.
Note that the encoder and all DMA channels should be configured for Big-Endian mode.

16. Special Function Registers
The direct-access data memory locations from 0x80 to 0xFF constitute the special function registers
(SFRs). The SFRs p rovide con trol and da t a exchange with the Si1 02x/3x's resour ces and perip herals. Th e
CIP-51 controller core duplicates the SFRs found in a typical 8051 implement ation as well as implementing
additional SFRs used to configure and access the sub-systems unique to the Si102x/3x. This allows the
addition of new functionality while retaining compatibility with the MCS-51™ instruction set. Table 16.3 lists
the SFRs implemented in the Si102x/3x device family.
The SFR regist ers are access ed anytime the direct a ddressing mode is used to access memory locations
from 0x80 to 0xFF. SFRs with addresses ending in 0x0 or 0x8 (e.g., P0, TCON, S CON0, IE, etc.) are bit-
addressable as well as byte-addressable. All other SFRs are byte-addressable only. Unoccupied
addresses in the SFR space are reserved for future use. Accessing unoccupied addresses in the SFR
space will have an indeterminate effect and should be avoided. Refer to the corresponding pages of the
data sheet, as indicated in Table 16.3, for a detailed description of each register.
16.1. SFR Paging
The CIP-51 features SFR paging, allowing the device to map many SFRs into the 0x80 to 0xFF memory
address space. The SF R memory space has 256 pages. In this way, each memory location from 0x80 to
0xFF can access up to 256 SFRs. The Si102x/3x family of devices utilizes two SFR pages: 0x00 and 0x0F.
SFR pages are selected using the Special Function Register Page Selection register, SFRPAGE (see SFR
Definition 11.3). The procedure for reading and writing an SFR is as follows:
1. Select the appropriate SFR page number using the SFRPAGE register.
2. Use direct accessing mode to read or write the special function register (MOV instruction).
16.2. Interrupts and SFR Paging
When an interrupt occurs, the current SFRPAGE is pushed onto the SFR page stack. Upon execution of
the RETI instruction, the SFR page is auto matically re stored to the SFR Page in use prior to the interrupt.
This is accomplished via a three-byte SFR Page Stack. The top byte of the stack is SFRPAGE, the current
SFR Page. The second byte of the SFR Page Stack is SFRNEXT. The third, or bottom byte of the SFR
Page Stack is SFRLAST. Upon an interrupt, the current SFRPAGE value is pushed to the SFRNEXT byte,
and the value of SFRNEXT is pushed to SFRLAST. On a return from interrupt, the SFR Page Stack is
popped resulting in the value of SFRNEXT returning to the SFRPAGE register, thereby restoring the SFR
page context witho ut software inte rvention . The valu e in SFRLAST (0x00 if there is no SFR Page value in
the bottom of the stack) of the stack is placed in SFRNEXT register. If desired, the values stored in
SFRNEXT and SFRLAST may be modified during an interrupt, enabling the CPU to return to a different
SFR Page upon execution of the RETI instruction (o n interrupt exit). Modifyin g registers in the SFR Page
Stack does not cause a push or pop of the stack. Only interrupt calls and returns will cause push/pop oper-
ations on the SFR Page Stack.
On the Si102x/3x devices, the SFRPAGE must be explicitly set in the interrupt service routine.
Si102x/3x
218 Rev. 0.3
Figure 16.1. SFR Page Stack
Automatic hardware switching of the SFR Page on interrupts may be enabled or disabled as desired using
the SFR Automatic Page Control Enable Bit located in the SFR Page Control Register (SFR0CN). This
function defaults to “enabled” upon reset. In this way, the autoswitching function will be enabled unless dis-
abled in software.
A summary of the SFR locations (address an d SFR page) are provided in Table 16.3 in the form of an SFR
memory map. Each memory location in the map has an SFR page row, denoting the page in which that
SFR resides. Certain SFRs ar e accessible from ALL SFR pages, and are denoted by the “(ALL PAGES)”
designation. For example, the Port I/O registers P0, P1, P2, and P3 all have the “(ALL PAGES)” designa-
tion, indicating these SFRs are accessible from all SFR pages regardless of the SFRPAGE register value.

16.3. SFR Page Stack Example
The following is an example that shows the operation of the SFR Page Stack during interrupts. In this
example, th e SFR Contr ol re giste r is left in the default enabled state (i.e., SFRPGEN = 1), and the CIP-51
is executing in-line code that is writing values to SMBus Address Register (SFR “SMB0ADR”, located at
address 0xF4 on SFR Page 0x0). The device is also using the SPI peripheral (SPI0) and the Programma-
ble Counter Array (PCA0) peripheral to generate a PWM output. The PCA is timing a critical control func-
tion in its interrupt service routine, and so its associated ISR is set to high priority. At this point, the SFR
page is set to access the SMB0ADR SFR (SFRPAGE = 0x0). See Figure 16.2.
Figure 16.2. SFR Page Stack While Using SFR Page 0x0 To Access SMB0ADR
While CIP-51 executes in-line code (writing a value to SMB0ADR in this example), the SPI0 Interrupt
occurs. The CIP-51 vectors to the SPI0 ISR and pushes the current SFR Page value (SFR Page 0x0F) into
SFRNEXT in the SFR Page Stack. SFRPAGE is considered the “top” of the SFR Page Stack. Software
may switch to any SFR Page by wr iting a new value to th e SFRPAGE register at any tim e durin g the SPI0
ISR. See Figure 16.3.

Figure 16.3. SFR Page Stack After SPI0 Interrupt Occurs
While in the SPI0 ISR, a PCA interrupt occurs. Recall the PCA interrupt is configured as a high priority
interrupt, while the SPI0 interrupt is configur ed as a low priority interrup t. Thus, the CIP-51 will now vector
to the high priority PCA ISR. Upon doing so, the CIP-51 will automatically place the SFR page needed to
access the PCA’s special function registers into the SFRPAGE register, SFR Page All Pages. The value
that was in the SFRPAGE register before the PCA interrupt (SFR Page 0x00 for SPI00) is pushed down
the stack into SFRNEXT. Likewise, the value that was in the SFR NEXT register before the PCA interrupt
(in this case SFR Page 0x0F for SMB0ADR) is pushed down to the SFRLAST register, the “bottom” of the
stack. Note that a value stored in SFRLAST (via a previous sof t ware write to the SFRLAST register) will be
overwritten. See Figure 16.4.

On exit from the PCA interrupt service routine, the CIP-51 will return to the SPI0 ISR. On execution of the
RETI instruction, SFR Page All Pages used to access the PCA registers will be automatically popped off of
the SFR Page Stack, and the contents of the SFRNEXT register will be moved to the SFRPAGE register.
Software in the SPI0 ISR can continue to access SFRs as it did prior to the PCA interrupt. Likewise, the
contents of SFRLAST are moved to the SFRNEXT register. Recall this was the SFR Page value 0x0F
being used to access SMB0ADR before the SPI0 interrupt occurred. See Figure 16.5.

In the example above, all thre e bytes in th e SFR Page Sta ck are accessible via the SFRPAGE, SFRNEXT,

return to a different SFR Page upon interrup t exit than se lected prior to the interr upt call. Dir ect access to
the SFR Page stack can be useful to enable real-time operating systems to control and manage context
switching between multiple tasks.
Push operations on the SFR Page Stack only occur on interrupt service, and pop operations only oc cur on
interrupt exit (execution on the RETI instruction). The automatic switching of the SFRPAGE and operation
of the SFR Page Stack as described above can be disabled in software by clearing the SFR Automatic
Page Enable Bit (SFRPGEN) in the SFR Page Control Register (SFR0CN). See SFR Definition 16.1.

0SFRPGEN SFR Automatic Page Control Enable.
Upon interrupt, the C8051 Core will vector to the specified interrupt service routine
and automatically switch the SFR page to the corresponding peripheral or function’s
SFR page. This bit is used to control this autopaging function.
0: SFR Automatic Paging disabled. The C8051 core will not automatically change to
the appropriate SFR page (i.e., the SFR page that contains the SFRs for the periph-
eral/function that was the source of the interrupt).
1: SFR Automatic Paging enabled. Upon interrupt, the C8051 will switch the SFR
page to the page that contains the SFRs for the peripheral or function that is the
source of the interrupt.

7:0 SFRPAGE[7:0] SFR Page Bits.
Represents the SFR Page the C8051 core uses when reading or modifying
SFRs.
Write: Sets the SFR Page.
Read: Byte is the SFR page the C8051 core is using.
When enabled in the SFR Page Control Register (SFR0CN), the C8051 core will
automatically switch to the SFR Page that contains the SFRs of the correspond-
ing peripheral/function that caused the interrupt, and return to the previous SFR
page upon return from interrupt (unless SFR Stack was altered before a return-
ing from the interrupt). SFRPAGE is the top byte of the SFR Page Stack, and
push/pop events of this stack are caused by interrupts (and not by reading/writ-
ing to the SFRPAGE register)

This is the value that will go to the SFR Page register upon a return from inter-
rupt.
Write: Sets the SFR Page contained in the second byte of the SFR Stack. This
will cause the SFRPAGE SFR to have this SFR page value upon a return from
interrupt.
Read: Returns the value of the SFR page contained in the second byte of the
SFR stack.
SFR page context is retained upon interrupts/return from interrupts in a 3 byte
SFR Page Stack: SFRPAGE is the first entry, SFRNEXT is the second, and
SFRLAST is the th ird entry. The SFR stack bytes ma y be used alter th e context
in the SFR Page Stack, and will not cause the stack to “push” or “pop”. Only

17. Interrupt Handler
The Si102x/3x microcontroller family includes an extended interrupt system supporting multiple interrupt
sources and two priority levels. The allocation of interrupt sources between on-chip peripherals and exter-
nal input pins varies according to the specific version of the device. Refer to Table 17.1, “Interrupt Sum-
mary,” on page 240 for a detailed listing of all interrupt sources supported by the device. Refer to the data
sheet section associated with a particular on-chip peripheral for inform ation re ga rdin g va lid inte rr up t condi -
tions for the peripheral and the behavior of its interrupt-pending flag(s).
Each interrupt source has one or more associated interrupt-pending flag(s) located in an SFR or an indi-
rect register. When a peripheral or external source meets a valid interrupt condition, the associated inter-
rupt-pending flag is set to logic 1. If both global interrupts and the specific interrupt source is enabled, a
CPU interrupt request is gen erated when the interrupt-pend ing flag is set.
As soon as execution of the current instruction is complete, the CPU generates an LCALL to a predeter-
mined address to begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). Each ISR must end with an RETI
instruction, which returns program execution to the next instruction that would have been executed if the
interrupt request h ad not occurred. If inter rupt s are not enabled, the inter rupt-pen ding flag is ignored by the
hardware and program execution continues as normal. (The interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1 regard-
less of the interrupt's enable/disable state.)
Some interrupt-pending flags are automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR.
However, most are not cleared by the hardware and must be cleared by software before returning from the
ISR. If an interrupt-pending flag remains set after the CPU completes the return-from-interrupt (RETI)
instruction, a new interrupt request will be generated immediately and the CPU will re-enter the ISR after
the completion of the next instruction.
17.1. Enabling Interrupt Sources
Each interrupt source can be individually enabled or disabled through the use of an associated interrupt
enable bit in the Interrupt Enable and Extended Interrupt Enable SFRs. However, interrupts must first be
globally enabled by setting the EA bit (IE.7) to logic 1 before the individual interrupt enables are recog-
nized. Setting the EA bit to logic 0 disables all interrupt sources regardless of the individual interrupt-
enable settings. Note that interrupts which occur when the EA bit is set to logic 0 will be held in a pending
state, and will not be serviced until the EA bit is set back to logic 1.
17.2. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors
The CPU services interrupts by generating an LCALL to a predetermined address (the interrupt vector
address) to begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). The interrupt vector addresses associ-
ated with each inte rrupt so urce are liste d in Table 17.1 on p a ge 240. Software should ensure that the inter-
rupt vector for each enabled interrupt source contains a valid interrupt service routine.
Software can simulate an interrupt by setting any interrupt-pending flag to logic 1. If interrupts are enabled
for the flag, an interrupt request will be generated and the CPU will vector to the ISR address associated
with the interrupt-pending flag.

Si102x/3x
17.3. Interrupt Priorities
Each interrupt source can be in dividually pr og rammed to one of two priority levels: low or high. A low prior-
ity interrupt service routine can be pree mpted by a high priority interr upt. A high priority interr upt cannot be
preempted. If a high priority interrupt preempts a low priority interrupt, the low priority interrupt will finish
execution after the high priority interrupt completes. Each interrupt has an associated inter rupt priority bit in
in the Interrupt Priority and Extended Interrupt Priority registers used to config ur e its prior ity leve l. Lo w pr i -
ority is the default.
If two interrupts are recognized simultaneously, the interrupt with the higher priority is serviced first. If both
interrupts have the same priority level, a fixed priority order is used to arbitrate. See Table 17.1 on
page 240 to determine the fixed priority order used to arbitrate between simultaneously recognized inter-
rupts.
17.4. Interrupt Latency
Interrupt response time dep en ds on the state of the CPU when the interrupt occurs. Pending inter rupts are
sampled and priority decoded each system clock cycle. Therefore, the fastest possible response time is 7
system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt, 1 clock cycle to execute a single instruction, and
5 clock cycles to complete th e L CALL to the ISR. If an interrupt is pending when a RETI is executed, a sin-
gle instruction is executed before an LCALL is made to service the pending interrupt. Therefore, the maxi-
mum response time for an interrupt (when no other interrupt is currently being serviced or the new interrupt
is of greater priority) occurs when the CPU is per fo rm ing an RET I instruction followe d by a DIV as the next
instruction. In this case, the response time is 19 system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt,
5 clock cycles to execute the RETI, 8 clock cycles to complete the DIV instruction and 5 clock cycles to
execute th e LCALL to th e ISR. If the CPU is execut ing an ISR for an interrup t with equal or h igher prior ity,
the new interrupt will not be serviced until the current ISR completes, including the RETI and following
instruction.

17.6. External Interrupts INT0 and INT1
The INT0 and INT1 external interrupt sources are configurable as active high or low, edge or level sensi-
tive. The IN0PL (INT0 Polarity) and IN1PL (INT1 Polarity) bits in the IT01CF register select active high or
active low; the IT0 and IT1 bits in TCON (Section “33.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 493) select level or
edge sensitive. The table below lists the possible configurations.
INT0 and INT1 are assigned to Port pins as defined in the IT01CF register (see SFR Definition 17.7). Note
that INT0 and INT0 Port pin assignments are independent of any Crossbar assignments. INT0 and INT1
will monitor their assigned Port pins without disturbing the peripheral that was assigned the Port pin via the
Crossbar. To assign a Port pin only to INT0 and/or INT1, configure th e Crossbar to skip the selected pin( s).
This is accomplished by setting the associated bit in register XBR0 (see Section “27.3. Priority Crossbar
Decoder” on page 362 for complete details on configuring the Crossbar).
IE0 (TCON.1) and IE1 (TCON.3) serve as the interrupt-pending flags for the INT0 and INT1 external inter-
rupts, respectively. If an INT0 or INT1 external interrupt is configu re d as edge- sensitive , th e corres pondin g
interrupt-pending flag is automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR. When
configured as level sensitive, the interrupt-pending flag remains logic 1 while the input is active as defined
by the corresponding polarity bit (IN0PL or IN1PL); the flag remains logic 0 while the input is inactive. The
external interrupt source must hold the input active until the interrupt request is recognized. It must then
deactivate the interrupt request before execution of the ISR completes or another interrupt request w ill be
generated.

18. Flash Memory
On-chip, re-programmable flash memory is included for program code and non-volatile data storage. The
flash memory can be programmed in-system, a single byte at a time, through the C2 interface or by soft-
ware using the MOVX write instruction. Once cleared to logic 0, a flash bit must be erased to set it back to
logic 1. Flash bytes would typically be erased (set to 0xFF) before being reprogrammed. The write and
erase operations are automatically timed by hardware for proper execut ion; data polling to determine the
end of the write/erase operations is not required. Code execution is stalled during flash write/erase opera-
tions. Refer to Table 4.8 for complete flash memory electrical characteristics.
18.1. Programming the Flash Memory
The simplest means of programming the flash memory is through the C2 interface using programming
tools provided by Silicon Laboratories or a third party vendor. This is the only means for programming a
non-initialized device. For details on the C2 commands to program flash memory, see Section “35. C2
Interface” on page 533.
The flash memory can be programmed by software using the MOVX write instruction with the address and
data byte to be programmed provided as normal operands. Before programming flash memory using
MOVX, flash programming operations must be enabled by: (1) setting the PSWE Program Store Write
Enable bit (PSCTL.0) to logic 1 (this directs the MOVX writes to target flash memory); and (2) Writing the
flash key codes in sequence to the Flash Lock register (FLKEY). The PSWE bit remains set until cleared by
software.
For detailed guidelines on programming flash from firmware, please see Section “18.5. Flash
Write and Erase Guidelines” on pag e 256.
To ensure the integrity of the flash contents, the on-chip VDD Monitor must be enabled and enabled as a
reset source in any system that includes code that writes and/or erases flash memory from software. Fur-
thermore, there should be no delay between enabling the VDD Monitor and enabling the VDD Monitor as a
reset source. Any attempt to write or er ase flas h memo ry while the V DD Monito r is disabl ed, or not enable d
as a reset source, will cause a Flash Error device reset.
18.1.1. Flash Lock and Key Functions
Flash writes and erases by user software are protected with a lock and key function. The Flash Lock and
Key Register (FLKEY) must be written with the correct key codes, in sequence, before flash operations
may be performed. The key codes are: 0xA5, 0xF1. The timing does not matter, but the codes must be
written in order. If the key codes are written out of order, or the wrong codes are written, flash writes and
erases will be disabled until the next system reset. Flash writes and erases will also be disabled if a flash
write or erase is attempted before the key codes have been written properly. The flash lock resets after
each write or erase; the key codes must be written again before a following flash operation can be per-
formed. The FLKEY register is detailed in SFR Definition 18.4.
18.1.2. Flash Erase Procedure
The flash memory is organized in 1024-byte pages. The erase operation applies to an entire page (setting
all bytes in the page to 0xFF). To erase an entire 1024-byte page, perform the following ste ps:
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.
2. Set the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
4. If writing to an address in Banks 1, 2, or 3, set the COBANK[1:0] bits (register PSBANK) for the
appropriate bank.
5. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
6. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
7. Using the MOVX instruction, write a dat a byte to any location within the 1024-byte p age to be erased.
8. Clear the PSWE and PSEE bits.
Rev. 0.3 251
Si102x/3x
9. Restore previous interrupt state.
Steps 4–7 must be repeated for each 1024-byte page to be erased.
Notes:
1. Flash security settings may prevent erasure of some flash pages, such as the reserved area and the page
containing the lock bytes. For a summary of flash security settings an d restrictions affecting flash erase
operations, please see Section “18.3. Security Options” on page 253.
2. 8-bit MOVX instructi ons cannot be used to erase or write to flash memory at addresses higher tha n 0x00F F.
18.1.3. Flash Write Procedure
A write to flash memory can clear bits to logic 0 but cannot set them; only an erase operation can set bits
to logic 1 in flash. A byte location to be programmed should be erased before a new value is written.
The recommended procedure for writing a single byte in flash is as follows:
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.
2. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
3. Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
4. If writing to an address in Banks 1, 2, or 3, set the COBANK[1:0] bits (register PSBANK) for the
appropriate bank.
5. Ensure that the flash byte has been erased (has a value of 0xFF).
6. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
7. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
8. Using the MOVX instruction, write a single data byte to the desired location within the 10 24-byte
sector.
9. Clear the PSWE bit.
10. Restore previous interrupt state.
Steps 2–8 must be repeated for each byte to be written.
Notes:
1. Flash security settings may prevent writes to some areas of flash, such as the reserved area. For a summary of
flash security settings and restricti ons affecting flash write operations, please see Section “18.3. Security
Options” on page 253.
2. 8-bit MOVX instructi ons cannot be used to erase or write to flash memory at addresses higher tha n 0x00F F.

252 Rev. 0.3
18.1.4. Flash Write Optimization
The flash write procedure includes a block write option to optimize the time to perform consecutive byte
writes. When block write is enabled by setting the CHBLKW bit (FLRBCN.0), writes to flash will occur in
blocks of 4 bytes and requ ire the same amo unt of time as a single byte write . This is performed by caching
the bytes whose address end in 00b, 01b, and 10 b that is written to flash and then committing all four bytes
to flash when the byte with address 11b is written. When block writes are enabled, if the write to the byte
with address 11b does not occur, the other three data bytes written is not committed to flash.
A write to flash memory can clear bits to logic 0 but cannot set them; only an erase operation can set bits
to logic 1 in flash. The Flash Block to be programmed should be erased before a new value is writ-
ten.
The recommended procedure for writing a 4-byte flash block is as follows:
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.
2. Set the CHBLKW bit (register FLRBCN).
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
4. Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
5. If writing to an address in Banks 1, 2, or 3, set the COBANK[1:0] bits (register PSBANK) for the
appropriate bank
6. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
7. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
8. Using the MOVX instruction, write the first data byte to the desired location within the 1024-byte
sector whose address ends in 00b.
9. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
10. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
11. Using the MOVX instruction, write the second data byte to the next higher flash address ending in
01b.
12. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
13. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
14. Using the MOVX instruction, write the third data byte to the next higher flash address end ing in 10b.
15. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
16. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
17. Using the MOVX instruction, write the final dat a byte to th e next higher fla sh address e nding in 11b.
18. Clear the PSWE bit.
19. Clear the CHBLKW bit.
20. Restore previous interrupt state.
Steps 5–17 must be repeated for each flash block to be written.
Notes:
1. Flash security settings may prevent writes to some areas of flash, such as the reserved area. For a summary of
flash security settings and restricti ons affecting flash write operations, please see Section “18.3. Security
Options” on page 253.
2. 8-bit MOVX instructi ons cannot be used to erase or write to flash memory at addresses higher tha n 0x00F F.

18.2. Non-volatile Data Storage
The flash memory can be used for non-volatile data storage as well as program code. This allows data
such as calibration coefficients to be calculated and stored at run time. Data is written using the MOVX
write instruction and read using the MOVC instruction. Note: MOVX read instru ctions always t a rget XRAM.
18.3. Security Options
The CIP-51 provides security options to protect the flash memory from inadvertent modification by soft-
ware as well as to prevent the viewing of proprietary program code and constants. The Program Store
Write Enable (bit PSWE in register PSCTL) and the Program Store Erase Enable (bit PSEE in register
PSCTL) bits protect the flash memory from accidental modification by software. PSWE must be explicitly
set to 1 before software can modify the flash memory; both PSWE and PSEE must be set to 1 before soft-
ware can erase flash memory. Additional security features prevent pr opriet ary program code and dat a con-
stants from being read or altered across the C2 interface.
A Security Lock Byte located at the last byte of flash user space offers protection of the flash program
memory from access (reads, writes, or erases) by unprotecte d code or the C2 interface. The flash security
mechanism allows the user to lock n 1024-byte flash pages, starting at page 0 (addresses 0x0000 to
0x03FF), where n is the 1s complement number represented by the Security Lock Byte. The page con-
taining the Flash Security Lock Byte is unlocked when no other flash pages are locked (all bits of
the Lock Byte are 1) and locked when any other flash pages are locked (any bit of the Lock Byte is
0). See example in Figure 18.1

The level of flash security depends on the flash access method. The three flash access methods that can
be restricted are reads, writes, and erases from the C2 debug interface, user firmware executing on
unlocked pages, and user firmware executing on locked pages. Table 18.1 summarizes the flash security
features of the Si102x/3x devices.

18.4. Determining the Device Part Number at Run Time
In many applications, user software may need to determine the MCU part number at run time in order to
determine the hardware capabilities. The part number can be determined by reading the value of the
DEVICEID Special Function Register.
The value of the DEVICE ID re gister can be decoded as follows:
0xE0—Si1020
0xE1—Si1021
0xE2—Si1022
0xE3—Si1023
0xE4—Si1024

18.5. Flash Write and Erase Guidelines
Any system which contains routines which write or erase flash memory from software involves some risk
that the write or erase routines will execute unintentionally if the CPU is operating outside its specified
operating range of VDD, system clock frequency, or temperature. This acciden tal execution of flash modi -
fying code can result in alteration of flash memory contents causing a system failure that is only recover-
able by re-Flashing the code in the device.
To help prevent the accidental modification of flash by firmware, the VDD Monitor must be enabled and
enabled as a reset source on Si102x/3x devices for the flash to be successfully modified. If either t he VDD
Monitor or the VDD Monitor reset source is not enabled, a Flash Error Device Reset will be gener-
ated when the firmware attempts to modify the flash.
The following guidelines are recommended for any system that contains routines which write or erase flash
from code.
18.5.1. VDD Maintenance and the VDD Monitor
1. If the system power supply is subject to volta ge or current "spikes," add suf ficient transient pr otection
devices to the power supply to ensure that the supply voltages listed in the Absolute Maximum
Ratings table are not exceeded .
2. Make certain that the minimum VDD rise time specification of 1 ms is met. If the system cannot meet
this rise time specification, then add an external VDD brownout circuit to the RST pin of the device
that holds the device in reset until VDD reaches the minimum d evice operating voltage and re-
asserts RST if VDD drops below the minimum device operating voltage.
3. Keep the on-chip VDD Monitor enabled and enable the VDD Monitor as a reset source as early in
code as possible. This should be the first set of instructions executed after the Reset Vector. For C-
based systems, this will involve modifying the startup code added by the 'C' compiler. See your
compiler documentation for more details. Make certain that there are no delays in software between
enabling the VDD Monitor and enabling the VDD Monitor as a reset source. Code examples showing
this can be found in “AN201: Writing to Flash from Firmware," available from the Silicon Laboratories
web site.
Notes:
On Si102x/3x devices, both the VDD Monitor and the VDD Monitor reset source must be enabled to write
or erase flash without generating a Flash Error Device Reset.

Rev. 0.3 257
Si102x/3x
On Si102x/3x devices, both the VDD Monitor and the VDD Monitor reset source are enab led by ha rdware
after a power-on reset.
4. As an added precaution, explicitly enable the VDD Monitor and enable the VDD Monitor as a reset
source inside the functions that write and erase flash memory. The VDD Monitor enable instructions
should be placed just after the instruction to set PSWE to a 1, but before the flash write or erase
operation instruction.
5. Make cert ain that all writes to the RSTSRC (Reset Sources) register use di rect assignment operators
and explicitly DO NOT use the bit-wise operators (such as AND or OR). For example, "RST SRC =
0x02" is correct, but "RSTSRC |= 0x02" is incorrect.
6. Make certain that all writes to the RSTSRC register explicitly set the PORSF bit to a '1'. Areas to
check are initialization code which enables other reset sources, such as the Missing Clock Detector
or Comparator, for example, and instructions which force a Software Reset. A global search on
"RSTSRC" can quickly verify this.
Si102x/3x
258 Rev. 0.3
18.5.2. PSWE Maintenance
1. Reduce the numbe r of pla ces in code whe re th e PSWE bit (b 0 in PSCT L) is se t to a 1 . T her e sh ould
be exactly one routine in code that sets PSWE to a 1 to write flash bytes and one routine in code that
sets both PSWE and PSEE both to a 1 to erase flash pages.
2. Minimize the number of va riable accesses while PSWE is se t to a 1. Hand le pointer ad dress updates
and loop maintena nce out side the "PSWE = 1;... PSWE = 0;" ar ea. Code examples showing this can
be found in “AN201: Writing to Flash from Firmware," available from the Silicon Laboratories web
site.
3. Disable interrupts prior to setting PSWE to a 1 and leave them disa bled un til after PSWE has been
reset to 0. Any interrupts posted during the flash write or erase operation will be serviced in priority
order af ter th e flash ope ratio n h as been co mple ted a nd in terr upts have been re-enabled by software.
4. Make certain that the flash write and erase pointer variables are not located in XRAM. See your
compiler documentation for instructions regarding how to explicitly locate variables in different
memory areas.
5. Add address bounds checking to the routines that write or erase flash memory to ensure that a
routine called with an illegal address does not result in modification of the flash.
18.5.3. System Clock
1. If operating from an external crystal, be advised that crystal performance is susceptible to electrical
interference and is sensitive to layout and to changes in temperature. If the system is operating in an
electrically noisy environment, use the internal oscillator or use an external CMOS clock.
2. If operating from the external oscillator, switch to the internal oscillator during flash write or erase
operations. The external oscillator can continue to run, and the CPU can switch back to the external
oscillator after the flash operation has completed.
Additional flash recommendations and example code can be found in “AN201: Writing to Flash from Firm-
ware," available from the Silicon Laboratories website.

Si102x/3x
18.6. Minimizing Flash Read Current
The flash memory in the Si102x/3x de vices is responsible for a substantial portion of the total digital supply
current when the device is executing code. Below are suggestions to minimize flash read current.
1. Use idle, low power idle, suspend, or sleep modes while waiting for an interrupt, rather than polling
the interrupt flag. Idle mode and low power idle mode is particularly well-suited for use in
implementing sh or t pauses, sinc e th e wak e- up time is no more than three system clock cycles. See
the Power Management chapter for details on the vari ous low-power operating modes.
2. The flash memory is organized in 4-byte words starting with a byte with address ending in 00b and
ending with a byte with address ending in 11b. A 4-byte pre-fetch buffer is used to read 4 bytes of
flash in a single read oper ation. Short loops that st raddle word boundaries or ha ve an instruction byte
with address ending in 11b should be avoided when possible. If a loop executes in 20 or more cl ock
cycles, any resulting increase in operating current due to mis-alignment will be negligible.
3. To minimize the power consumption of small loops, it is best to locate them such that the numbe r of
4-byte words to be fetched from flash is minimized. Consider a 2- byte, 3-cycle loop ( e.g., SJMP $, or
while(1);). The flash read current of such a loop will be minimized if both address bytes are contained
in the first 3 bytes of a single 4-byte word. Such a loop should be manually located at an address
ending in 00b or the number of bytes in the loop should be increased (by padding with NOP
instructions) in order to minimize flash read current.

19. Power Management
Si102x/3x devices support 6 power modes: Normal, Idle, Stop, Low Power Idle, Suspend, and Sleep. The
power management unit (PMU0) allows the device to enter and wake-up from the available power modes.
A brief description of each power mode is provided in Table 19.1. Detailed descriptions of each mode can
be found in the following sections.
In battery powered systems, the system shou ld sp end as mu ch time as poss ible in sleep m ode in orde r to
preserve ba ttery life. When a task with a fixed num ber of clock cycle s needs to be performed, the device
should switch to no rma l m o de , f i nish the task as quickly as possible, and return to sleep mode. Idle mode,
low power idle mode, and suspend mode provide a very fast wake-up time; however, the power savings in
these modes will not be as much as in sleep Mode. Stop Mode is included for legacy reasons; the system
will be more power efficient and easier to wake up when idle, low power idle, suspend, or sleep mode is
used.
Although switching power modes is an integral part of power management, enabling/disabling individual
peripherals as needed will help lower power consumption in all power modes. Each analog peripheral can
be disabled when not in use or placed in a low power mode. Digital peripherals such as timers or serial
busses draw little power whenever they are not in use. Digital peripherals draw no power in Sleep Mo de.

The MCU is fully functional in Normal Mode. Figure 19.1 shows the on-chip power distribution to various
peripherals. There are three supply voltages powering various sections of the chip: VBAT, DCOUT, and the
1.8 V internal core supply (output of VREG0). All analog peripherals are directly powered from the VBAT
pin. All digital peripherals and the CIP-51 core are powered from the 1.8 V internal core supply (output of
VREG0). The Pulse counter, RAM , PMU0, and the SmaR TClock are powered from the in ternal core supply
when the device is in normal mode. The inpu t to VREG0 is contr olled by software and depends on the set-
tings of the power select switch. The pow er select switch may be configured to power VREG0 from VBAT
or from the output of the DC0.

19.2. Idle Mode
Setting the Idle Mode Select bit (PCON.0) causes the CIP-51 to halt the CPU and enter Idle mode as soon
as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution. All internal registers and memory maintain their
original data. All analog and digital peripherals can remain active during Idle mode.
Idle mode is terminated when an enabled interrupt is asserted or a reset occurs. The assertion of an
enabled interrupt will cause the Idle Mode Selection bit (PCON.0) to be cleared and the CPU to resume
operation. The pending interrupt will be serviced and the next instruction to be executed after the return
from interrupt (RETI) will be the instruction immediately following the one that set the Idle Mode Select bit.
If Idle mode is terminated by an internal or external reset, the CIP-51 performs a normal reset sequence
and begins program execution at address 0x0000.
If enabled, the Watchdog T i mer (WDT) will eventually cause an internal watchdog reset and thereby termi-
nate the Idle mode. This featur e protect s the system from an unintended per manent sh ut down in the event

of an inadvertent write to the PCON register. If this behavior is not desired, the WDT may be disabled by
software prior to entering the idle mode if the WDT was initially configured to allow this operation. This pro-
vides the opportunity for additional power savings, allowing the system to remain in the Idle mode indefi-
nitely, waiting for an external stimulus to wake up the system. Refer to Se ction “22.6. PCA Watchdog T imer
Reset” on page 290 for more information on the use and configuration of the WDT.
19.3. Stop Mode
Setting the Stop Mode Select bit (PCON.1) causes the CIP-51 to enter St op mo de as soon as the instruc -
tion that sets the bit completes execution. In Stop mode the precision internal oscillator and CPU are
stopped; the state of the low power oscillator and the external oscillator circuit is not affected. Each analog
peripheral (including the external oscillator circuit) may be shut down individually prior to entering Stop
Mode. Stop mode can only be terminated by an internal or external reset. On reset, the CIP-51 performs
the normal reset sequence and begins program execution at address 0x0000.
If enabled, the Missing Clock Detector will cause an internal reset and thereby terminate the Stop mode.
The Missing Clock De tector sho uld be d isabled if the CPU is to be put to in ST OP mode fo r long er than th e
MCD timeout.
Stop Mode is a legacy 8051 power mode; it will not result in optimal power savings. Sleep, Suspend, or
Low Power Idle mode will provide more power savings if the MCU needs to be inactive for a long period of
time.
19.4. Low Power Idle Mode
Low Power Idle Mode uses clock gating to reduce the supply current when the device is placed in Idle
mode. This mode is enabled by configuring the clock tree gates using the PCLKEN register, setting the
LPMEN bit in the CLKMODE register, and placing the device in Idle mode. The clock is automatically gated
from the CPU upon entry into Idle mod e whe n the LP MEN bit is set. This mode provides substantial power
savings over the standard Idle Mode especially at high system clock frequencies.
The clock gating logic may also be used to reduce power when exe cuting code. Lo w Power Active Mode is
enabled by configuring the PCLKACT and PCLKEN registers, then setting the LPMEN bit. The PCLKACT
register provides the ability to override the PCLKEN setting to force a clock to certain peripherals in Low
Power Active mode. If the PCLKACT register is left at its default value, then PCLKEN determines which
perpherals will be clocked in this mode. The CPU is always clocked in Low Power Active Mode.

19.5. Suspend Mode
Setting the Suspend Mode Select bit (PMU0CF.6) causes the system clock to be gated off and all internal
oscillators disabled. The system clock source must be set to the low power internal oscillator or the preci-
sion oscillator prior to entering Suspend Mode. All digital logic (timers, communication peripherals, inter-
rupts, CPU, etc.) stops functioning until one of the enabled wake-up sources occurs.
The following wake-up sources can be configured to wa ke the device from Suspend Mode:
Pulse Counter Count Reached Event
VBAT Monitor (part of LCD logic)
SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail
SmaRTClock Alarm
Port Match Event
Comparator0 Rising Edge
Note: Upon wake-up from suspend mode, PMU0 requires two system clocks in order to update the PMU0CF wake-
up flags. All flags will read back a value of '0' during the first two system clocks following a wake-up from
suspend mode.
In addition, a noise glitch on RST that is not long enough to reset the device will cause the device to exit
suspend. In order for the MCU to respond to the pin reset event, software must not place the device back
into suspend mode for a period of 15 µs. The PMU0CF re gis ter m ay b e ch ecke d to d et erm ine if th e wa ke -
up was due to a falling edge on the /RST pin. If the wake-up source is not due to a falling edge on RST,
there is no time restriction on how soon software may place the device back in to suspend mode. A 4.7 kW
pullup resistor to VDD is recommend for RST to prevent noise glitches from waking the device.
19.6. Sleep Mode
Setting the Sleep Mode Select bit (PMU0CF.7) turns off the internal 1.8 V regulator (VREG0) and switches
the power supply of all on-chip RAM to the VBAT pin (see Figure 19.1). Power to most digital logic on the
chip is disconnected; only PMU0, LCD, Power Select Switch, Pulse Counter, and the SmaRTClock remain
powered. Analog peripherals remain powered; however, only the Comparators remain functional when the
device enters Sleep Mode. All other analog peripherals (ADC0, IREF0, External Oscillator, etc.) should be
disabled prior to entering Sleep Mode. The system clock source must be set to the low power internal
oscillator or the precision oscillator prior to entering Sleep Mode.
GPIO pins configured as digital outputs will retain their output state during sleep mode. In two-cell mode,
they will maintain the same current drive capability in sleep mode as they have in normal mode.
GPIO pins configu red as digital inputs can be used during sleep mode as wakeup sources using the port
match feature. In two-cell mode, they will maintain the same input level s pecs in sleep mode as they have
in normal mode.
‘Si102x/3x devices support a wakeup request for external devices. Upon exit from sleep mode, the wake-
up request signal is driven low, allowing other devices in the system to wake up from their low power
modes.
RAM and SFR register contents are preserved in sleep mode as long as the voltage on VBAT does not fall
below VPOR. The PC counter and all other volatile state information is preserved allowing the device to
resume code execution upon waking up from Sleep mode.
Rev. 0.3 271
Si102x/3x
The following wake-up sources can be configured to wa ke the device from sleep mode:
Pulse Counter Count Reached Event
VBAT Monitor (part of LCD logic)
SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail
SmaRTClock Alarm
Port Match Event
Comparator0 Rising Edge
The comparator requires a supply voltage of at least 1.8 V to operate properly. On Si102x/3x devices, the
POR supply monitor can be disabled to save power by writing 1 to the MONDIS (PMU0MD.5) bit. When
the POR supply monitor is disabled, all reset sources will trigger a full POR and will re-enable the POR
supply monitor.
In addition, any falling edge on RST (due to a pin reset or a noise glitch) will cause the device to exit sleep
mode. In order for the MCU to re sp on d to th e p in r eset event, so f tware must not place th e device back into
sleep mode for a period of 15 µs. The PMU0CF register may be checked to determ ine if the wake-u p wa s
due to a falling edge on the RST pin. If the wake-up source is not due to a falling edge on RST, there is no
time restriction on how soon software may place the device back into sleep mode. A 4.7 k pullup resistor
to VDD is recommend for RST to prevent noise glitches from waking the device.
19.7. Configuring Wakeup Sources
Before placing the device in a low power mode, one or more wakeup sources should be enabled so that
the device does not remain in the low power mode indefinitely. For idle mode, this includes enabling any
interrupt. For stop mode, this includes enabling any reset source or relying on the RST pin to reset the
device.
Wake-up sources for suspend and sleep modes are configured through the PMU0CF register. Wake-up
sources are enabled by writing 1 to the corresponding wake-up source enable bit. Wake-up sources must
be re-enabled each time the device is placed in Suspend or Sleep mode, in the same write that places the
device in the low power mode.
The reset pin is always enabled as a wake-up source. On the falling edge of RST, the device will be
awaken from sleep mode. The device must remain awake for more than 15 µs in order for the reset to take
place.
19.8. Determining the Event that Caused the Last Wakeup
When waking from idle mode, the CPU will vector to the interrupt which caused it to wake up. When wak-
ing from stop mode, the RSTSRC register may be read to determine the cause of the last reset.
Upon exit from suspend or sleep mode, the wake-up flags in the PMU0CF register can be read to deter-
mine the event which caused the device to wake up. After waking up, the wake-up flags will continue to be
updated if any of the wake-up events occur. Wake-up flags are always updated, even if they are not
enabled as wake-up sources.
All wake-up flags enabled as wake-up sources in PMU0CF must be cleared before the device can enter
suspend or sleep mode. After clearing the wake-up flags, each of the enabled wake-up events should be
checked in the individual peripherals to ensure that a wake-up event did not occur while the wake-up flags
were being cleared.

20. On-Chip DC-DC Buck Converter (DC0)
Si102x/3x devices include an on-chip step down dc-dc converter to efficiently utilize the energy stored in
the battery, thus extending the operational life time. The dc-dc converter is a switching buck converter with
an input supply of 1.8 to 3.8 V and an output that is programmable from 1.8 to 3.5 V in steps of 0.1 V. The
battery voltage should be at least 0.4 V higher than the programmed output voltage. The programmed out-
put voltage has a default value of 1.9 V. The dc-dc converter can supply up to 250 mW. The dc-dc con-
verter can be used to power the MCU and/or external devices in the system (e.g., an RF transceiver).
The dc-dc converter has a built in voltage reference and oscillator, and will automatically limit or turn off the
switching activity in case the peak inductor current rises beyond a safe limit or the output voltage rises
above the programmed target value. This allows the dc-dc converter output to be safely overdriven by a
secondary power source (when available) in order to preserve battery life. When enabled, the dc-dc con-
verter can source current into the output capacitor, but cannot sink current. The dc-dc converter ’s settings
can be modified using SFR registers described in Section 20.8.

20.1. Startup Behavior
The dc-dc converter is enabled by setting bit DC0EN (DC0MD.0) to logic 1. When first enabled, the M1
switch turns on and continues to suppl y current into t he output cap acitor th rough the inductor until the VDC
output voltage reaches the programmed level set by by the VSEL bit s (DC0CF.[6:3]).
The peak transient current in the inductor is limited for safe operation. The peak inductor current is pro-
grammable using the ILIMIT bits (DC0MD.[6:4]). The peak inductor current, size of the output capacitor
and the amount of dc load current present during startup will determine the length of time it takes to charge
the output capacitor. The RDYH and RDYL bits (DC0RDY.7 and DC0DRY.6) may be used to determine
when the output voltage is within approximately 100 mV of the program m ed voltage.
In order to ensure reliable startup of the dc-dc converter, the following restrictions have been imposed:
The maximum dc load current allowed during startup is given in Table 4.20 on page 69. If the dc-dc
converter is powering external sensors or devices through the VDC pin, then the current supplied to
these sensors or devices is counted towards this limit. The in-rush current into capacitors does not
count towards this limit.
The maximum total ou tput capacitance is given in Table 4.20 on page 69. This value includes the
required 2.2 µF ceramic output capacitor and any additional capacitance connected to the VDC pin.
The peak inductor current limit is programmable by software as shown in Table 20.1. Limiting the peak
inductor current can allow the dc-dc converter to start up using a high impedance power source (such as
when a battery is near its end of life) or allow inductors with a low current rating to be utilized. By default,
the peak inductor current is set to 500 mA.
.
The peak inductor current is dependent on several factors including the dc load current and can be esti-
mated using following equation:
efficiency = 0.80
inductance = 0.68 µH
frequency = 2.4 MHz

20.2. High Power Applications
The dc-dc converter is designed to provide the system with 150 mW of output power. At high ou tput power,
an inductor with low DC resistance should be chosen in order to minimize power loss and maximize effi-
ciency. At load currents higher than 20 mA, efficiency improvents may be achieved by placing a schottky
diode (e.g. MBR052LT1) between the IND pin and GND in parallel with the internal diode (see
Figure 20.1).
20.3. Pulse Skipping Mode
The dc-dc converter allows the user to set the minimum pulse width such that if the duty cycle needs to
decrease below a certain width in order to maintain regulation, an entire "clock pulse" will be skipped.
Pulse skipping can provide substantial power savings, particularly at low values of load current. The con-
verter will continue to maintain a minimum output voltage at its programmed value when pulse skipping is
employed, though the o utput voltage ripple can be higher. Anothe r consider ation is that the dc-dc will oper-
ate with pulse-frequency modulation rather than pulse-width modulation, which makes the switching fre-
quency spectrum less predictable; this could be an issue if the dc-dc converter is used to power a radio.
20.4. Optimizing Board Layout
The PCB layout does have an effect on the overall efficiency. The following guidelines are recommended
to acheive the optimum layout:
Place the input capacitor stack as close as possible to the VBATDC pin. The smallest capacitors in the
stack should be placed closest to the VBATDC pin.
Place the output capacitor stack as close as possible to the VDC pin. The smallest capacitors in the
stack should be placed closest to the VDC pin.
Minimize the trac e len gt h be twe e n th e IND pin, the inductor, and the VDC pin.
20.5. Selecting the Optimum Switch Size
The dc-dc converter provides the ability to change the size of the built-in switches . To maximize efficiency,
one of two switch sizes may be selected. The large switches are ideal for carrying high currents and the
small switches are ideal for low current applications. The ideal switchover point to switch from the small
switches to the large switches is at approximately 5 mA total output current.
20.6. DC-DC Converter Clocking Options
The dc-dc converter may be clocked from its internal oscillator, or from any system clock source, select-
able by the CLKSEL bit (DC0CF.0). The dc-dc converter internal oscillator frequency is approximately
2.4 MHz. For a more accurate clock source, the system clock, or a divided version of the system clock may
be used as the dc-dc clock source. The dc-dc converter has a built in clock divider (configured using
DC0CF[6:5]) which allows any system clock frequency over 1.6 MHz to generate a valid clock in the range
of 1.9 to 3.8 MHz.
When the precision internal oscillator is selected as the system clock source, the OSCICL register may be
used to fine tune the oscillator frequency and the dc-dc converter clock. The oscillator frequency should
only be decreased since it is factory calibrated at its maximum frequency. The minimum frequency which
can be reached by the oscillator after taking into account process variations is approximately 16 MHz. The
system clock routed to the dc-dc converter clock divider also may be inverted by setting the CLKINV bit
(DC0CF.3) to logic 1. These options can be used to minimize interference in noise sensitive applications.
Rev. 0.3 279
Si102x/3x
20.7. Bypass Mode
The dc-dc converter has a bypass switch (MBYP), see Figure 20.1, which allows the output voltage (VDC)
to be directly tied to the input supply (VBATDC), bypassing the dc-dc converter. The bypass switch may be
used independently from the dc-dc converter. For example, applications that need to power the VDC sup-
ply in the lowest power Sleep mode can turn on the bypass switch prior to turning off the dc-dc converter in
order to avoid powering down the exter nal circuitry connected to VDC.
There are two ways to close the bypass switch. Using the first method, Forced Bypass Mode, the FORBYP
bit is set to a logic 1 forcing the bypass switch to close. Clearing the FORBYP bit to logic 0 will allow the
switch to open if it is not being held closed using Automatic Bypass Mode.
The Automatic Bypass Mode, enabled by setting the AUTO BYP to logic 1, closes the bypass switch when
the difference between VBATDC and the programmed output voltage is less than approximately 0.4 V.
Once the difference exceeds approximately 0.5 V, the bypass switch is opened unless being held closed
by Forced Bypass Mode. In most systems, Automatic Bypass Mode will be left enabled, and the Forced
Bypass Mode will be used to close the switch as needed by the system.

21. Voltage Regulator (VREG0)
Si102x/3x devices include an internal voltage regulator (VREG0) to regulate the internal core supply to
1.8 V from a VDD/DC+ supply of 1.8 to 3.6 V. Elec trical charac teristics for the on-chip regulato r are speci-
fied in the Electrical Specifications ch apter.
The REG0CN register allows the Precision Oscillator Bias to be disabled, reducing supply current in all
non-sleep power modes. This bias should only be disabled when the precision oscillator is not being used.
The internal regu lator (VREG0) is d isabled when the device enters slee p mode and re mains enabled whe n

22. Reset Sources
Reset circuitry allows the controller to be easily placed in a predefined default condition. On entry to this
reset state, the following occur:
CIP-51 halts program execution
Special Function Registers (SFRs) are initialized to their defined reset values
External Port pins are forced to a known state
Interrupts and timers are disabled
All SFRs are reset to the predefined values noted in the SFR descriptions. The contents of RAM are unaf-
fected during a reset; any previously stored data is preserved as long as power is not lost. Since the stack
pointer SFR is reset, the stack is effectively lost, even though the data on the stack is not altered.
The port I/O latches are reset to 0xFF (all logic ones) in open-drain mode. Weak pullups are enabled dur-
ing and after the reset. For VDD Monitor and power-on resets, the RST pin is driven low until the device
exits the reset state.
On exit from the reset state, the program counter (PC) is reset, and the system clock defaults to an internal
oscillator. Refer to Section “23. Clocking Sources” on page 293 for information on selecting and configur-
ing the system clock source. The Watchdog Timer is enabled with the system clock divided by 12 as its
clock source (Section “34.4. Watchdog Timer Mode” on page 524 deta ils the use of the Watchdog Timer).
Program execution begins at location 0x0000.

22.1. Power-On Reset
During power-up, the device is held in a reset state and the RST pin voltage tracks the supply voltage
(through a weak pull-up) until the device is released from reset. After the supply settles above VPOR, a
delay occurs before the device is released from reset; the delay decreases as the supply ramp time
increases (ramp time is defined as how fast the supply ramps from 0 V to VPOR). Figure 22.2 plots the
power-on and supply monitor reset timing. For valid ramp times (less than 3 ms), the power-on reset delay
(TPORDelay) is typically 7 ms (VDD = 1.8 V) or 15 ms (VDD = 3.6 V).
Note: The maximum supply ramp time is 3 ms; slower ramp times may cause the device to be released from reset
before the supply reaches the VPOR level.
On exit from a power-on reset, the PORSF flag (RSTSRC.1) is set by hardware to logic 1. When PORSF is
set, all of the other reset flags in the RSTSRC Register are indeterminate (PORSF is cleared by all other
resets). Since all resets cause program execution to begin at the same location (0x0000), software can
read the PORSF flag to determine if a power-up was the cause of reset. The contents of internal data
memory should be assumed to be undefined after a power-on reset.
The POR supply monitor will continue to monitor the VBAT supply, even in Sleep Mode, to reset the sys-
tem if the supply voltage drops below VPOR. It can be disabled to save power by writing 1 to the MONDIS
(PMU0MD.5) bit. When the POR supply monitor is disabled, all reset sources will trigger a full POR and will
re-enable the POR supply monitor.

22.2. Power-Fail Reset
Si102x/3x devices have two Active Mode Supply Monitors that can hold the system in reset if the supply
voltage drops below VRST. The first of the two identical supply monitors is connected to the output of the
supply select switch (which chooses the VBAT or VDC pin as the source of the digital supply voltage) and
is enabled and selected as a reset source after each power-on or power-fail reset. This supply monitor will
be referred to as the digital supply monitor. The second supply monitor is connected directly to the VBAT
pin an is disabled after each power-on or power-fail reset. This supply monitor will be referred to as the
analog supply monitor. The analog supply monitor should be enabled an y time the supply select switch is
set to the VDC pin to ensure that the VBAT supply does not drop below VRST .
When enabled and selected as a r eset source, any power down transition or power irregu larity th at causes
the monitored supply voltage to drop b elow VRST will cause the RST pin to be driven low and the CIP-51
will be held in a reset state (see Figure 22.2). When the supply voltage returns to a level above VRST, the
CIP-51 will be released from the reset state.
After a power-fail reset, the PORSF flag reads 1, the contents of RAM invalid, and the digital supply moni-
tor is enabled and selecte d as a reset so urce. The ena ble st ate of eith er supply monitor an d its selection as
a reset source is only altered by power-on and power-fail resets. For example, if the supply monitor is de-
selected as a res et source an d disabled by software, then a so ftware reset is perfor med, the su pply mon i-
tor will remain disabled and de-selected after the reset.
In battery-operated sy stems, the contents of R AM can be preserved near the end of the battery’s usable
life if the device is placed in Sleep Mode prior to a power-fail reset occurring. When the device is in Sleep
Mode, the power-fail reset is automatically disabled, both active mode supply monitors are turned off, and
the contents of RAM are preserved as long as the supply does not fall below VPOR. A large capacitor can
be used to hold the power supply voltage above VPOR while the user is replacing the battery. Upon waking
from Sleep mode, the enable and reset source select state of the VDD supply monitor are restored to the
value last set by the user.
To allow software early notification that a power failure is about to occur, the VDDOK bit is cleared when
the supply falls below the VWARN threshold. The VDDOK bit can be configured to generate an interrupt.
Each of the active mode supply montiors have their independent VDDOK and VWARN flags. See Section
“17. Interrupt Handler” on page 238 for more details.
Important Note: To protect th e integrity of Flash cont ents, the active mode supply monitor(s) must be
enabled and selected as a reset source if software contains routines which erase or write Flash
memory. If the digital supply monitor is not enabled, any erase or write performed on Flash memory will
cause a Flash Error device reset.
Si102x/3x
288 Rev. 0.3
Important Notes:
The Power-on Reset (P OR) delay is not incurred a fter a supp ly monitor reset. See Section “ 4. Electrical
Characteristics” on page 50 for complete electrical chara cte rist ics of the active mode supply monitors.
Software should take care not to inadvertently disable the supply monitor as a reset source when
writing to RSTSRC to enable other reset sources or to trigger a software reset. All writes to RSTSRC
should explicitly set PORSF to 1 to keep the supply monitor enabled as a reset source.
The supply monitor must be enable d before selecting it as a reset source . Selecting the supply monitor
as a reset source before it has stabilized may generate a system reset. In systems where this reset
would be undesirable, a delay should be introduced between enabling the supply monito r and selecting
it as a reset source. See Section “4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 50 for minimum supp ly m onitor
turn-on time. No delay should be introduced in systems where software contains routines that
erase or writ e Flash memory. The procedure for enabling the VDD supply monitor and selecting it as a
reset source is shown below:
1. Enable the Supply Monitor (VDMEN bit in VDM0CN = 1).
2. Wait for the Supply Monitor to stabilize (optional).
3. Select the Supply Monitor as a reset source (PORSF bit in RSTSRC = 1).

22.3. External Reset
The extern al RST pin provides a means for external circuitry to force the device into a reset state. Assert-
ing an active-low signal on the RST pin g enera tes a reset; a n externa l pullu p and/or decoup ling of the RST
pin may be necessary to avoid erroneous noise-induced resets. See Table 4.6 for complete RST pin spec-
ifications. The external reset remains functional even when the device is in the low power suspend and
sleep modes. The PINRSF flag (RSTSRC.0) is set on exit from an external reset.
22.4. Missing Clock Detector Reset
The missing clock detector (MCD) is a one-shot circuit that is triggered by the system clock. If the system
clock remains high or low for more than 100 µs, the one-shot will time out and generate a reset. After a
MCD reset, the MCDRSF flag (RSTSRC.2) will read 1, signifying the MCD as the reset source; otherwise,
this bit reads 0. Writing a 1 to the MCDRSF bit enables the Missing Clock Detector; writing a 0 disables it.
The missing clock detector reset is automatically disabled when the device is in the low power suspend or
sleep mode. Upon exit from either low power state, the enabled/disabled state of this reset source is
restored to its previous value. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
22.5. Comparator0 Reset
Comparator0 can be configured as a reset source by writing a 1 to the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5).
Comparator0 should be enabled and allowed to settle prior to writing to C0RSEF to prevent any turn-on
chatter on the output from generating an unwanted reset. The Comparat or0 re set is activ e-low: if t he non -
inverting input voltage (on CP0+) is less than the inverting input voltage (on CP0–), the device is put into
the reset state. After a Comparator0 reset, the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5) will read 1 signifying
Comparator0 as the reset source; otherwise, this bit reads 0. The Comparator0 reset source remains func-
tional even when the device is in the low power suspend and sleep states as long as Comparator0 is also
enabled as a wake-u p so ur ce . Th e state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
22.6. PCA Watchdog Timer Reset
The programmable watchdog timer (WDT) function of the programmable counter array (PCA) can be use d
to prevent software from running ou t of control during a system malfunction. The PCA WDT function can
be enabled or disabled by software as described in Section “34.4. Watchdog Timer Mode” on page 524;
the WDT is enabled and clocked by SYSCLK / 12 following any reset. If a system malfunction prevents
user software from up dating the WDT, a rese t is generated and the WDTRSF bit (RSTSRC.5) is set to 1.
The PCA Watchdog Timer reset source is automatically disabled when the device is in the low power sus-
pend or sleep mode. Upon exit from either low power state, the enabled/disabled state of this reset source
is restored to its previous value.The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
Rev. 0.3 291
Si102x/3x
22.7. Flash Error Reset
If a Flash read/write/erase or program read targets an illegal address, a system reset is generated. This
may occur due to any of the fo llowing:
A Flash write or erase is attempted above user code space. This occurs when PSWE is set to 1 and a
MOVX write operation targets an address above the Lock Byte address.
A Flash read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when a MOVC operation ta rgets an
address above the Lock Byte address.
A Program read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when user code attempts to branch
to an address above the Lock Byte address.
A Flash read, write or erase attempt is restricted due to a Flash security setting (see Section
“18.3. Security Options” on page 253).
A Flash write or erase is attempted while the VDD Monitor is disabled.
The FERROR bit (RSTSRC.6) is set following a Flash error reset. The st ate of the RST p in is unaf fected by
this reset.
22.8. SmaRTClock (Real Time Clock) Reset
The SmaRTClock can generate a system reset on two events: SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail or SmaRT-
Clock Alarm. The SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail event occurs when the SmaR TClock Missing Clock Detector
is enabled and the SmaRTClock clock is below approximately 20 kHz. A SmaRTClock alarm event occurs
when the SmaRTClock Alarm is enabled and the SmaRTClock timer value matches the ALARMn regis-
ters. The SmaRTClock can be configured as a reset source by writing a 1 to the RTC0RE flag (RST-
SRC.7). The SmaRTClock reset remains functional even when the device is in the low power Suspend or
Sleep mode. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
22.9. Soft ware Reset
Software may force a reset by writing a 1 to the SWRSF bit (RSTSRC.4). The SWRSF bit will read 1 fol-
lowing a software forced reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.

23. Clocking Sources
Si102x/3x devices include a programmable precision internal oscillator, an external oscillator drive circuit,
a low power internal oscillator, and a SmaRTClock real time clock oscillator. The precision internal oscilla-
tor can be enabled/disabled and calibrated using the OSCICN and OSCICL registers, as shown in
Figure 23.1. The external oscillator can be configured using the OSCXCN register. The low power internal
oscillator is automatically enabled and disabled when selected and deselected as a clock source. SmaRT-
Clock operation is described in the SmaRTClock oscillator chapter.
The system clock (SYSCLK) can be derived from the precision internal oscillator, external oscillator, low
power internal oscillator, low power internal oscillator divided by 8, or SmaRTClock oscillator. The global
clock divider can generate a system clock that is 1 , 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128 times slower tha t the selected
input clock source. Oscillator electrical specifications can be found in the Electrical Specifications Chapter.
Figure 23.1. Clocking Sources Block Diagram
The proper way of changing the system clock when both the clock source and the clock divide value are
being changed is as follows:
If switching from a fast “undivided” clock to a slower “undivided” clo ck:
1. Change the clock divide value.
2. Poll for CLKRDY > 1.
3. Change the clock source.
If switching from a slow “undivided” clock to a faster “undivided” cloc k:
1. Change the clock source.
2. Change the clock divide value.

The precision oscillator supports a spread spectrum mode which modulates the output frequency in order
to reduce the EMI generated by the system. When enabled (SSE = 1), the oscillator output frequency is
modulated by a stepped triangle wave whose frequency is equal to the oscillator frequency divided by 384
(63.8 kHz using the factory calibration). The deviation from the nominal oscillator frequency is +0%, –1.6%,
and the step size is typically 0.26% of the nominal frequency. When using this mode, the typical average
oscillator frequency is lowered from 24.5 MHz to 24.3 MHz.
23.2. Low Power Internal Oscillator
All Si102x/3x devices include a low power internal oscillator that defaults as the system clock after a sys-
tem reset. The low power internal oscillator frequency is 20 MHz ± 10% and is automatically enabled when
selected as the system clock and disabled when not in use. See Section “4. Electrical Characte ristics” on
page 50 for complete os cillator specifications.
23.3. External Oscillator Drive Circuit
All Si102x/3x devices include an external oscillator circuit that may drive an external crystal, ceramic reso-
nator, capacitor, or RC network. A CMOS clock may also provide a clock input. Figure 23.1 shows a block
diagram of the four external oscillator options. The external oscillator is enabled and configured using the
OSCXCN register.
The external oscillator output may be selected as the system clock or used to clock some of the digital
peripherals (e.g., Timers, PCA, etc.). See the data sheet chapters for each digital peripheral for details.
See Section “4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 50 for complete oscillator specifications.
23.3.1. External Crysta l Mode
If a crystal or ceramic resonator is used as the external oscillator, the crystal/resonator and a 10 Mresis-
tor must be wired across the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins as shown in Figure 23.1, Option 1. Appropriate load-
ing capacitors should be added to XTAL1 and XTAL2, and both pins should be configured for analog I/O
with the digital output drivers disabled.
Figure 23.2 shows the external oscillator circuit for a 20 MHz quartz crystal with a manufacturer recom-
mended load capacitance of 12.5 pF. Loading capacitors are "in series" as seen by the crystal and "in par-
allel" with the stray capacitance of the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins. The total value of the each loading
capacitor and the stray capacitance of each XTAL pin should equal 12.5 pF x 2 = 25 pF. With a stray
capacitance of 10 pF per pin, the 15 pF capacitors yield an equivalent series capacitance of 12.5 pF
across the crystal.
Note: The recommended load capacitance depends upon the crystal and the manufacturer . Please refer to the crystal
data sheet when completing these calcula tions.

Figure 23.2. 25 MHz External Crystal Example
Important Note on External Crystals: Crystal oscillator circuits are quite sensitive to PCB layout. The
crystal should be placed as close as possible to the XTAL pins on the device. The traces should be as
short as possible and shielded with ground plane from any other traces which could introduce noise or
interference.
When using an external crystal, the external oscillator drive circuit must be configured by sof tware for Crys-
tal Oscillator Mode or Crystal Oscillator Mode with divide by 2 stage. The divide by 2 st age ensures that the
clock derived from the external oscillator has a duty cycle of 50%. The External Oscillator Frequency Con-
trol value (XFCN) must also be specified based on the crystal frequency. The selection should be based on
Table 23.1. For example, a 25 MHz crystal requires an XFCN setting of 111b.
When the crystal oscillator is first enabled, the external oscillator valid detector allows software to deter-
mine when the external system clock has stabilized. Switching to the external oscillator before the crys tal
oscillator has stabilized can result in unpredictable behav ior. The recommended procedure for starting the
crystal is as follows:
1. Configure XTAL1 and XTAL2 for analog I/O and disable the digital output drivers.
2. Configure and enable the external oscillator.
3. Poll for XTLVLD => 1.
4. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.

23.3.2. External RC Mode
If an RC network is used as the external oscillator, the circuit should be configured as shown in
Figure 23.1, Option 2. The RC network should be added to XTAL2, and XTAL2 should be configured for
analog I/O with the digital output drivers disabled. XTAL1 is not affected in RC mode.
The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however fo r very small capacitors, the total capacitance
may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. The resistor should be no smaller than
10 k. The oscillation frequency can be determined by the following equation:
where
f = frequency of clock in MHzR = pull-up resistor value in k
VDD = power supply voltage in VoltsC = capacitor value on the XTAL2 pin in pF
To determine the required External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register,
first select the RC network value to produce the desired frequency of oscillation. For example, if the fre-
quency desired is 100 kHz, let R = 246 k and C = 50 pF:
where
f = frequency of clock in MHz R = pull-up resistor value in k
VDD = power supply voltage in Volts C = capacitor value on the XTAL2 pin in pF
Referencing Table 23.2, the recommended XFCN setting is 010.
When the RC oscillator is first enabled , the external oscillator valid detector allows software to determine
when oscillation has stabilized. The recommended procedure for starting the RC oscillator is as follows:
1. Configure XTAL2 for analog I/O and disable the digital outpu t drivers.
2. Configure and enable the external oscillator.
3. Poll for XTLVLD > 1.
4. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.

23.3.3. External Capacitor Mode
If a capacitor is used as the external oscillator, the circuit should be configured as shown in Figure 23.1,
Option 3. The capacitor should be added to XTAL2, and XTAL2 should be configured for analog I/O with
the digital output drivers disabled. XTAL1 is not affected in RC mode.
The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however, for very small capacitors, the total capacitance
may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. The oscillation frequency and the required
External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register can be determined by the
following equation:
where
f = frequency of clock in MHzR = pull-up resistor value in k
VDD = power supply voltage in VoltsC = capacitor value on the XTAL2 pin in pF
Below is an example of selecting the capacitor and finding the frequency of oscillation Assume VDD = 3.0 V
and f = 150 kHz:
Since a frequency of roughly 150 kHz is desired, select the K Factor from Table 23.2 as KF = 22:
Therefore, the XFCN value to use in this example is 011 and C is approximately 50 pF.
The recommended startup procedure for C mode is the same as RC mode.
23.3.4. External CMOS Clock Mode
If an external CMOS clock is used as the external oscillator, the clock should be directly routed into XTAL2.
The XTAL2 pin should be configured as a digital input. XTAL1 is not used in external CMOS clock mode.
The external oscillator valid detector will always return zero when the external oscillator is configured to
External CMOS Clock mode.

23.4. Special Function Registers for Selecting and Configuring the System Clock
The clocking sources on Si102x/3x devices are enabled and configured using the OSCICN, OSCICL,
OSCXCN and the SmaRTClock internal registers. See Section “24. SmaRTClock (Real Time Clock)” on
page 302 for SmaRTClock register descriptions. The system clock source for the MCU can be selected
using the CLKSEL regi ster. To minimize active mode current, the oneshot tim er which sets Flash read time
should by bypassed whe n the system clock is greater than 10 MHz. See the FLSCL register descr iption for
details.
The clock selected as the system clock can be divided by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128. When switching
between two clock divide values, the transition may take up to 128 cycles of the undivided clock source.
The CLKRDY flag can be polled to determine when the new clock divide value has been applied. The clock
divider must be set to "divide by 1" when entering Suspend or Sleep Mode.
The system clock source may also be switched on-the-fly. The switchover takes effect after one clock
period of the slower oscillator.

24. SmaRTClock (Real Time Clock)
Si102x/3x devices include an ultra low power 32-b it SmaRTClock Peripheral (Real Time Clock) with alarm.
The SmaRT Clock has a dedicated 32 kHz oscillator that can be configured for use with or without a crystal.
No external resistor or loading capacitors are required. The on-chip loading capa citors are programmable
to 16 discrete levels allowing compatibility with a wide range of crystals. The SmaRTClock can operate
directly from a 1. 8–3.6 V battery voltage and remains operational even when the device goes into its low-
est power down mode. The SmaRTClock output can be buffered and routed to a GPIO pin to provide an
accurate, low frequency clock to other devices while the MCU is in its lowest power down mode (see
“PMU0MD: Power Manageme nt Unit Mode” on p age 274 for more details). Si102x/3x device s also support
an ultra low power int er na l LF O th at re du ce s slee p mode curr en t.
The SmaRTClock allows a maximum of 36 hour 32-bit independent time-keeping when used with a
32.768 kHz Watch Crystal. The SmaRTClock provides an Alarm and Missing SmaRTClock events, which
could be used as reset or wakeup sources. See Section “22. Reset Sources” on page 285 and Section
“19. Power Mana ge men t” o n page 264 for details on reset sources and low power mode wake-up sources,
respectively.

24.1. SmaRTClock Interface
The SmaRTClock Interface consists of three registers: RTC0KEY, RTC0ADR, and RTC0DAT. These inter-
face registers are located on the CIP-51’s SFR map and provide access to the SmaRTClock internal regis-
ters listed in Table 24.1. The SmaRTClock internal registers can only be accessed indirectly through the
SmaRTClock Interface.

24.1.1. SmaRTClock Lock and Key Functions
The SmaRTClock Interface has an RTC0KEY register for legacy reasons, however, all writes to this regis-
ter are ignored. The SmaRTClock interface is always unlocked on Si102x/3x.
24.1.2. Using RTC0ADR and RTC0DAT to Access SmaRTClock Internal Registers
The SmaRTClock internal registers can be read and written using RTC0ADR and RTC0DAT. The
RTC0ADR register selects the SmaRTClock internal register that will be targeted by subsequent reads or
writes. A SmaRTClock Write operation is initiated by writing to the RTC0DAT register . Below is an example
of writing to a SmaRTClock internal register.
1. Write 0x05 to RTC0ADR. This selects the internal RTC0CN register at SmaRTClock Address 0x05.
2. Write 0x00 to RTC0DAT. This operation writes 0x00 to the internal RTC0CN register.
A SmaRTClock Read operation is initiated by writing the register address to RTC0ADR and reading from
RTC0DAT. Below is an examp le of rea din g a Sma RTClock intern al re gist er.
1. Write 0x05 to RTC0ADR. This selects the internal RTC0CN register at SmaRTClock Address 0x05.
2. Read data from RTC0DAT. This data is a copy of the RTC0CN register.
24.1.3. SmaRTClock Interface Autoread Feature
When Autoread is enabled, each read from RTC0DAT initiates the next indirect read operation on the
SmaRTClock in tern al register se lected by R TC0ADR. Sof t ware sh ould set th e regi ster addr ess once at th e
beginning of each series of cons ecutive reads. Au toread is enabled by setting AUTORD (RTC0ADR.6) to
logic 1.
24.1.4. RTC0ADR Autoincrement Feature
For ease of reading and writing the 32-bit CAPTURE and ALARM values, RTC0ADR automatically incre-
ments after each read or write to a CAPTUREn or ALARMn register. This speeds up the proce ss of settin g
an alarm or reading the current SmaRTClock timer value. Auto increment is always enabled.

24.2. SmaRTClock Clocking Sources
The SmaRTClock peripheral is clocked from its own timebase, independent of the system clock. The
SmaRTClock timebase can be derived from an external CMOS clock, the internal LFO, or the SmaRT-
Clock oscillator circuit, which has two modes of operation: Crystal Mode, and Self-Oscillate Mode. The
oscillation frequency is 32.768 kHz in Crystal Mode and can be programmed in the range of 10 kHz to
40 kHz in Self-Oscillate Mode. The internal LFO frequency is 16.4 kHz ±20%. The frequency of the
SmaRTClock oscillator can be measured with respect to another oscillator using an on-chip timer. See
Section “33. Timers” on page 491 for more information on how this can be accomplished.
Note: The SmaRTClock timebase can be selected as the system clock and routed to a port pin. See Section
“23. Clocking Sources” on page 293 for information on selecting the system clock source and Section “27. Port
Input/Output” on page 358 for information on how to route the system clock to a port pin. The SmaRTClock
timebase can also be routed to a port pin while th e device is in its ultra low power sleep mode. See the
PMU0MD register description for details.
24.2.1. Using the SmaRTClock Oscillator with a Crystal or External CMOS Clock
When using Crystal Mode, a 32.768 kHz crystal should be connected between XTAL3 and XTAL4. No
other external components are required. The following steps show how to start the SmaRTClock crystal
oscillator in software:
1. Configure the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins for Analog I/O.
2. Set SmaRTClock to Crystal Mode (XMODE = 1).
3. Disable Automatic Gain Control (AGCEN) and enable Bias Doubling (BIASX2) for fast crystal st artup.
4. Set the desired loading capacitance (RTC0XCF).
5. Enable power to the SmaRTClock oscillator circuit (RTC0EN = 1).
6. Wait 20 ms.
7. Poll the SmaRTClock Clock Valid Bit (CLKVLD) until the crystal oscillator stabilizes.
8. Poll the SmaRTClock Load Capacit ance Ready Bit (LOADRDY) until the load capacitance reaches
its programmed value.
9. Enable Automatic Gain Control (AGCEN) and disable Bias Doubling (BIASX2) for maximum power
savings.
10. Enable the SmaRTClock missing clock detector.
11. Wait 2 ms.
12. Clear the PMU0CF wake -u p so ur ce flags.
In Crystal Mode, the SmaRTClock osc illator may be driven by an external CMOS clock. The CMOS clock
should be applie d to XTAL3 . XTAL34 sh ould be left floating. In this mode, the external CMOS clock is ac
coupled into the SmaRTClock and should have a m inimum voltage swing of 400 mV. The CMOS clock sig-
nal voltage should not exceed VDD or drop below GND. Bias levels closer to VDD will result in lower I/O
power consumption because the XTAL3 pin has a built-in weak pull-up. The SmaRTClock oscillator should
be configured to its lowest bias setting with AGC disabled. Th e CLKVLD bit is indet ermina te when using a
CMOS clock, however, the OSCFAIL bit may be checked 2 ms after SmaRTClock oscillator is powered on
to ensure that there is a valid clock on XTAL3. The CLKVLD bit is forced low when BIASX2 is disabled.

24.2.2. Using the SmaRTClock Oscillator in Self-Oscillate Mode
When using Self-Oscillate Mode, the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins are internally shorted together. The following
steps show how to configure SmaRTClock for use in Self-Oscillate Mode:
1. Configure the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins for analog I/O and disable the digital driver.
2. Set SmaRTClock to Self-Oscillate Mode (XMODE = 0).
3. Set the desired oscillation frequency:
For oscillation at about 20 kHz, set BIASX2 = 0.
For oscillation at about 40 kHz, set BIASX2 = 1.
4. The oscillator starts oscillating instantaneously.
5. Fine tune the oscillation frequency by adjusting the load capacitance (RTC0XCF).
24.2.3. Using the Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO)
The low frequency oscillator provides an ultra low power, on-chip clock source to the SmaRTClock. The
typical frequency of oscillation is 16.4 kHz ±20%. No external component s are required to use th e LFO and
the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins may be used for general purpose I/O without any effect on the LFO.
The following steps show how to configure SmaRTClock for use with the LFO:
1. Enable and select the Low Frequency Oscillator (LFOEN = 1).
2. The LFO starts oscillating instantaneously.
When the LFO is enabled, the SmaRTClock oscillator increments bit 1 of the 32-bit timer (instead of bit 0).
This effectively multiplies the LFO frequency by 2, making the RTC timebase behave as if a 32.768 kHz
crystal is connected at the ou tp ut .
24.2.4. Programmable Load Capacitance
The programmable load capacita nce has 16 values to support crystal oscillators with a wide range of rec-
ommended load capacitance. If Automatic Load Capacitance Stepping is enabled, the crystal load capaci-
tors start at the smallest setting to allow a fast startup time, then slowly increase the capacitance until the
final programmed value is reached. The final programmed loading capacitor value is specified using the
LOADCAP bits in the RTC0XCF register. The LOADCAP setting specifies the amount of on-chip load
capacitance and does not include any stray PCB capacitance. Once the final programmed loading capaci-
tor value is reached, the LOADRDY flag will be set by hardware to logic 1.
When using the SmaRTClock oscillator in Self-Oscillate mode, the programmable load capacit ance can be
used to fine tune the oscillation frequency. In most cases, increasing the load capacitor value will result in
a decrease in oscillation frequency.Table 24.2 shows the crystal load capacitance for various settings of
LOADCAP.

24.2.5. Automatic Gain Control (Crystal Mode Only) and SmaRTClock Bias Doubling
Automatic Gain Control allows the SmaRTClock oscillator to trim the oscillation amplitude of a crystal in
order to achieve the lowest possible power consumption. Automatic Gain Control automatically detects
when the oscillation amplitude has reached a point where it safe to reduce the drive current, therefore, it
may be enab led during crystal startup. It is recommended to enable Automatic Gain Control in most sys-
tems which use the SmaRTClock oscillator in Crystal Mode. The following are recommended crystal spec-
ifications and operating conditions when Automatic Gain Control is enabled:
ESR < 50 k
Load Capacitance < 10 pF
Supply Voltage < 3.0 V
Temperature > –20 °C
When using Automatic Gain Control, it is recommended to perform an oscillation robustness test to ensure
that the chosen crystal will oscillate under the worst case condition to which the system will be exposed.
The worst case condition that should result in the least robust oscillation is at the following s ystem condi-
tions: lowest temperature, highest supply voltage, highest ESR, highest load capacitance, and lowest bias
current (AGC enabled, Bias Double Disabled).
To perform the oscillation robustness test, the SmaRTClock oscillator should be enabled and selected as
the system clock source. Next, the SYSCLK signal should be routed to a port p in configure d as a push-pull
digital output. The positive duty cycle of the output clock can be used as an indicator of oscillation robust-

ness. As shown in Figure 24.2, duty cycles less than TBD% indicate a robust oscillation. As the duty cyc le
approaches TBD%, oscillation becomes less reliable and the risk of clock failure increases. Increasing the
bias current (by disabling AGC) will always improve oscillation robustness and will reduce the output
clock’s duty cycle. This test should be performed at the worst case system conditions, as results at very
low temperatures or high supply voltage will vary from results taken at room temperature or low supply
voltage.
Figure 24.2. Interpreting Oscillation Robustness (Duty Cycle) Test Results
As an alternative to performing the oscillation robustness test, Automatic Gain Control may be disabled at
the cost of increased power consumption (approximately 200 nA). Disabling Automatic Gain Control will
provide the crystal oscillator with higher immunity against external factors which may lead to clock failure.
Automatic Gain Control must be disabled if using the SmaRTClock oscillator in self-oscillate mode.
Table 24.3 shows a summary of the oscillator bias settings. The SmaRTClock Bias Doubling feature allows
the self-oscillation frequency to be increased (almost doubled) and allows a higher crystal drive strength in
crystal mode. High cryst al drive strength is recommended when the cryst al is exposed to poor envir onmen-
tal conditions such as excessive moisture. SmaRTClock Bias Doubling is enabled by setting BIASX2
(RTC0XCN.5) to 1.

24.2.6. Missing SmaRTClock Detector
The missing SmaRTClock detector is a one-shot circuit enabled by setting MCLKEN (RTC0CN.6) to 1.
When the SmaRTClock Missing Clock Detector is enabled, OSCFAIL (RTC0CN.5) is set by hardware if
SmaRTClock oscillator remains high or low for more than 100 µs.
A SmaRTClock Missing C lock d etect or timeo ut ca n trig ger an inter rup t, wake the de vice fr om a low po wer
mode, or reset the device. See Section “17. Interrupt Handler” on page 238, Section “19. Power Manage-
ment” on page 264, and Section “22. Reset Sources” on page 285 for more information.
Note: The SmaRTClock Missing Clock Detector should be disabled when making changes to the oscillator settings in
RTC0XCN.
24.2.7. SmaRTClock Oscillator Crystal Valid Detector
The SmaRTClock oscillator crystal valid detector is an oscillation amplitude detector circuit used during
crystal startup to determine when oscillation has started and is nearly stable. The output of this detector
can be read from the CLKVLD bit (RTX0XCN.4).
Notes:
1. The CLKVLD bit has a blanking interval of 2 ms. During the first 2 ms after turning on the crystal oscillator, the
output of CLKVLD is not valid.
2. This SmaRTClock crystal valid detector (CLKVLD) is not intended for detecting an oscillator failure. The
missing SmaRTClock detector (CLKFAIL) should be used for this purpose.
3. The CLKVLD bit output is driven low when BIASX2 is disabled.
24.3. SmaRTClock Timer and Alarm Function
The SmaRTClock timer is a 32-bit counter that, when running (RTC0TR = 1), is incremented every
SmaRTClock oscillator cycle. The timer has an alarm function that can be set to generate an interrupt,
wake the device from a low power mode, or reset the device at a specific time. See Section “17. Interrupt
Handler” on page 238, Section “19. Power Management” on page 264, and Section “22. Reset Sources”
on page 285 for more information.
The SmaRTClock timer includes an Auto Reset feature, which automatically resets the timer to zero one
SmaRTClock cycle after the a larm 0 sign al is d eass erted. When using Auto Reset, the Alarm match value
should alway s be set to 2 coun ts less than the desir ed match value. When using the LFO in combination
with Auto Reset, the right-justified Alarm match value should be set to 4 counts less than the desired
match value. Auto Reset can be enabled by writing a 1 to ALRM (RTC0CN.2).
24.3.1. Setting and Reading the SmaRTClock Timer Value
The 32-bit SmaRTClock timer can be set or read using the six CAPTUREn intern al registers. Note that the
timer does not need to be stopped before reading or setting its value. The following steps can be used to
set the timer value:
1. Write the desired 32-bit set value to the CAPTUREn registers.
2. Write 1 to RTC0SET. This will transfer the contents of the CAPTUREn registers to the SmaRTClock
timer.
3. Operation is complete when RTC0SET is cleared to 0 by hardware.
The following steps can be used to read the current timer value:
1. Write 1 to RTC0CAP. This will transfer the contents of the timer to the CAPTUREn registers.
2. Poll RTC0CAP until it is cleared to 0 by hardwa re .
3. A snapshot of the timer value can be read from the CAPTUREn registers
Notes:
1. If the system clock is faster than 4x the SmaRTClock, then the HSMODE bit should be set to allow the set and
capture operations to be concluded quickly (system clock used for transfers).
2. If the system clock is slower than 4x the SmaRTClock, then HSMODE should be set to zero, and RTC must be
Si102x/3x
312 Rev. 0.3
running (RTC0TR = 1) in order to set or capture the main timer. The transfer can take up to 2 smaRTClock
cycles to complete.
24.3.2. Setting a SmaRTClock Alarm
The SmaRTClock alarm function compares the 32-bit value of SmaRTClock Timer to the value of the
ALARMnBn registers. An alarm event is triggered if the SmaRTClock timer is equal to the ALARMnBn
registers. If Auto Reset is enabled, the 32-bit timer will be cleared to zero one SmaRTClock cycle after the
alarm 0 event.
The SmaRTClock alarm event can be configured to reset the MCU, wake it up from a low power mode, or
generate an interr upt. See Section “17. Interrupt Handler” on page 238, Section “19. Power Management”
on page 264, and Section “22. Reset Sources” on page 285 for more information.
The following steps can be used to set up a SmaRTClock Alarm:
1. Disable SmaRTClock Alarm Events (RTC0AEN = 0).
2. Set the ALARMn registers to the desired value.
3. Enable SmaRTClock Alarm Events (RTC0AEN = 1).
Notes:
1. The ALRM bit, which is used as the SmaR TClock Alarm Event flag, is cleared by disabling SmaRTClock Alarm
Events (RTC0AEN = 0).
2. If AutoReset is disabled, disab ling (RTC0AEN = 0) then Re-enabling Alarm Events (RTC0AEN = 1) after a
SmaRTClock Alarm without modifying ALARMn registers will automa tically schedule the next alarm after 2^32
SmaRTClock cycles (approximately 36 hours using a 32.768 kHz crystal).
24.3.3. Software Considerations for using the SmaRTClock Timer and Alarm
The SmaRTC lock timer and alarm have two operating modes to suit varying applications. The two modes
are described below:
Mode 1:
The first mode uses th e Sma RTClock timer as a perpet ual tim ebase which is never reset to zero. Eve ry 36
hours, the timer is allowed to overflow without being stopped or disrupted. The alarm interval is software
managed and is added to the ALRMnBn registers by software after each alarm. This allows the alarm
match value to always stay ahead of the timer by one software managed interval. If software uses 32-bit
unsigned addition to increment the alarm match value, then it does not need to handle overflows since
both the timer and the alarm match value will overflow in the same manner.
This mode is ideal for applications which have a long alarm interval (e.g., 24 or 36 hours) and/or have a
need for a perpetual timebase. An example of an application that needs a perpetual timebase is one
whose wake-up interval is constantly changing. For these applications, software can keep track of the
number of timer overflows in a 16-bit variable, extending the 32-bit (36 hour) timer to a 48-bit (272 year)
perpetual timebase.
Mode 2:
The second mode uses the Sm aRTClock timer a s a general purpose up counter which is auto r eset to zero
by hardware after each alarm 0 event. The alarm interval is managed by hardware and stored in the
ALRM0Bn registers. Software only needs to set the alarm interval once during device initialization. After
each alarm 0 event, software should keep a count of the number of alarms that have occurred in order to
keep track of time. Alarm 1 and alarm 2 events do not trigger the auto reset.
This mode is ideal for applications that require minimal software intervention and/or have a fixed alarm
interval. This mode is the most power efficient since it requires less CPU time per alarm.

25. Low-Power Pulse Counter
The Si102x/3x family of microcontrollers contains a low-power pulse counter module with advanced fea-
tures, such as ultra low power input comparators with programmable thresholds, a wide range of pull up
values with a self calibration engine, asymmetrical integrators for low pass filtering and switch debounce,
single, dual, and quadrature modes of operation, two 24-bit counters, and a variety of interrupt and sleep
wake-up capabilities. This combination of features provides water, gas, and heat metering system design-
ers with an optimal tool for saving power while collecting meter usage data.
Figure 25.1. Pulse Counter Block Diagram
The low-power pulse counter is a low-power sleep-mode peripheral designed primarily to work meters
using reed switches, including water and gas meters. The pulse counter is very flexible and can count
pulses from many different types of sources.
The pulse counte r operat es in sleep mode to enable ultra-low power metering systems. The MCU does n ot
have to wake up on every edge or transition and can remain in sleep mode while the pu lse cou n te r co un ts
pulses for an extended period of time. The pu lse counter includes two 24-bit counters. These counters can
count up to 16,777,215 (224-1) transitions in sleep mode before overflowing. The pulse counter can wake
up the MCU when one of the counters overflows. The pulse counter also has two 24-bit digital compara-
tors. The comparators have the ability to wake up the MCU when the one of the counters reaches a prede-
termined count.
The pulse counter uses the RTC clock for sampling, de-bouncing, and managing the low-power pull-up
resistors. The RTC must be enabled when counting pulses. The RTC alarms can wake up the MCU peri-
odically to read the pulse counters instead of using the pulse counter digital comparators. For example, the
RTC can wa ke up the MCU every five minu tes. Th e MCU can then r ead the pulse counte r and transm it the
information using the UART or a wireless transceiver.

25.1. Counting Modes
The pulse counter supports three different counting modes: single counter mode, dual counter mode, and
quadrature counter mode. Figure 25.2 illustrates the three counter modes.
Figure 25.2. Mode Examples
The single counter mode uses only one pulse counter pin PC0 (P1.0) to count pulses from a single input
channel. This mode uses only Counter 0 and Comparator 0. (Counter 1 and Comparator 1 are not used.)
The single counter mode supports only one meter-encoder with a single-channel output. A single-channel
encoder is an effective solution when the metered fluid flows only in one direction. A single-channel
encoder does not provide any direction information and does not support bid irectional fluid metering.
The dual counte r mode support s two indepen dent single-channel meters. Each meter has its own indepen-
dent counter and comparator. Some of the global configuration settings apply to both channels, such as
pull-up current, sampling rate, and debounce tim e. The dual mode may also be used for a redunda nt count
using a two-channel non-quadrature encoder.
Quadrature counter mode su pports a single two-channel quadrature meter en code r. The quadra ture co un-
ter mode supports bidirectional encoders and applications with bidirectional fluid flow. In quadrature coun-
ter mode, clockwise counts will increment Counter 0, while counterclockwise counts will increment Counter
1. Subtracting Counter 1 from Counter 0 will yield the net position. If the normal fluid flow is clockwise, then

the counterclockwise Counter 1 valu e represent s the cumu lative backflow. Firmware may use th e backflow
counter with the corresponding comparator to implement a backflow alarm. The clockwise sequence is
(LL-HL-HH-LH), and th e counterclockwise sequ ence is (LL-LH-HH-HL). (For this seque nce LH means PC1
= Low and PC0 = High.)
Firmware cannot write to the counters. The counters are reset when PC0MD is written and have their
counting enabled when th e PC0MD[7: 6] mo de b its are set to either single, dual, or quadr ature mo des. Th e
counters only increment and will roll over to 0x000000 after reaching 0xFFFFFF. For single mode, the PC0
input connects to Counter 0. In dual mode, the PC0 input connects to Counter 0 while the PC1 input con-
nects to Counter 1. In Quadrature mode, clockwise counts are sent to Counter 0 while counterclockwise
counts are sent to Counter 1.
25.2. Reed Switch Types
The pulse counter works with both Form-A and Form-C reed switches. A Form-A switch is a Normally-
Open Single-Pole Single-Throw (NO SPST) switch. A Form-C re ed switch is a Single-Pole Double-Throw
(SPDT) switch. Figure 25.3 illustrates some of the common reed switch configurations for a single-channel
meter.
The Form-A switch requires a pu ll-up resistor. The ene rgy used by the pull-up re sistor may be a substantia l
portion of the energy budget. To minimize energy usage, the pulse counter has a programmable pull-up
resistance and an automatic calibration engine. The calibration engine can automatically determine the
smallest usable pull-up strength setting. A Form-C switch does not require a pull-up resistor and will pro-
vide a lower power solution. However, the Form-C switches are more expensive and require an additional
wire for VBAT.

25.3. Programmable Pull-Up Resistors
The pulse counter features low-power pull-up resistors with a programmable resistance and duty-cycle.
The average pull-up current will depend on the selected resistor, sample rate, and pull-up duty-cycle multi-
plier. Example code is available that will calculate the values for the pull-up configuration SFR (PC0PCF).
Table 25.1through Table 25.3 are used with Equation 25.1 to calculate the average pull-up resistor current.
Table 25.4through Table 25.7 give the average current for all combinations.

25.4. Automatic Pull-Up Resistor Calibration
The pulse counter includes an automatic calibration engine which can automatically determine the mini-
mum pull-up current for a particular application. The automatic calibration is especially useful when the
load capacitance of field wiring varies from one installation to another.
The automatic calibration uses one of the pulse counter inputs (PC0 or PC1) for calibration. The CAL-
PORT bit in the PC0PCF SFR selects either PC0 or PC1 for calibr ation. The reed switch on th e selected
input should be in the open state to allow the node to charge during calibration. The calibration engine can
calibrate the pull-ups with the meter connected normally, provided that the reed switch is open during cali-
bration. During calibration, the integrators will ignore the input comparators, and the counters will not be
incremented. Using a 250 µs sample rate and a 32 kHz RTCCLK, the calibration time will be 21 ms (28
tests @ 750 µs each) or shorter depending on the pull up strength selected. The calibration will fail if the
reed switch remains closed during this entire period. If the reed switch is both opened and closed during
the calibration period, the value written into PCCF[4:0] may be larger than what is actually required. The
transition flag in the PC0INT1 can detect when the reed switch opens, and most systems with a wheel
rotation of 10 Hz or slower should have sufficient high time for the calibration to complete before the next
closing of the reed switch. Slowing the sample rate will also increase the calibration time. The same drive
strength will used for both PC0 and PC1.
The example code for the pulse counter includes code for managing the automatic calibration engine.
25.5. Sample Rate
The pulse counter has a programmable sampling rate. The pulse counter samples the state of the reed
switches at discrete time intervals based on the RTC clock. The PC0MD SFR sets the sampling rate. The
system designer should carefully consider the maximum pulse rate for the particular application when set-
ting the sampling rate and debounce time. Sample ra tes from 250 µs to 2 ms can be selected to either fur-
ther reduce power consumption or work with shorter pulse widths. The slowest sampling rate (2 ms) will
provide the lowest possible power consumption.
25.6. Debounce
Like most me chanical switc hes, reed swit ches exhib it switch bo uncing that c ould potentially result in false
counts or quadrature errors. The pulse counter includes digital debounce logic using a digital integrator
that can eliminate false counts due to switch bounce. The input of the integrator connects to the pulse
counter inputs with the programmable pull-ups. The output connects to the counters.
The debounce integrator has two independent programmable thresholds: one for the rising edge
(Debounce High) and one for the falling edge (Debounce Low). The PC0DCH (PC0 Debounce Config
High) SFR sets the threshold for the rising edge. This SFR sets the number of cumulative high samples
required to output a logic high to the counter. The PC0DCL (PC0 Debounce Config Low) SFR sets the
threshold for the falling edge. This SFR sets the number of cumulative low samples required to output a
logic low to the counter.
Note that the debounce does count consecutive samples. Requiring consecutive samples would be sus-
ceptible to noise. The digital integrator inherently filters out noise.
The system designer should care fully consider th e maximum anticipated counter frequency and duty-cycle
when setting the debounce time. If the debounce configuration is set too large, the pulse counter will not
count short pulses. The debounce-high configuration should be set to less than one-half the minimum
input pulse high-time. Similarly, the debounce-low configuration should be set to less than one-half the
minimum input pulse low-time.
Figure 25.4 illustrates the operation of the debounce integrator. The top waveform is the representation of
the reed switch (high: open, lo w: closed) which shows so me random switch bounce. The botto m waveform
is the final signal that goes into the counter which has the switch bounce removed. Based on the actual
reed switch used and sample rate, the switch bounce time may appear shorter in duration than the exam-
ple in Figure 25.4. The second waveform is the pull-up resistor enable signal. The enable signal enables
Rev. 0.3 325

the pull-up resistor when high and disables when low. PC0 is the line to the reed switch. On the right side
of PC0 waveform, the line voltage is decreasing towards ground when the pull-up resistors are disabled.
Beneath the charging waveform, t he arrows represent t he sample points. The pulse co unter samples the
PC0 voltage once the charging completes. The sensed ones and zeros are the sampled data. Finally the
integrator waveform illustrates the output of the digital integrator. The integrator is set to 4 initially and
counts to down to 0 before toggling the output low. Once the integrator reaches the low state, it needs to
count up to 4 before toggling its output to the high state. The debounce logic filters out switch bounce or
noise that appears for a short duration.
Figure 25.4. Debounce Timing
25.7. Reset Behavior
Unlike most MCU peripherals, an MCU reset does not completely reset the pulse counter. This includes a
power on reset and all other reset sources. An MCU reset does not clear the counter values. The pulse
counter SFRs do not reset to a default value upon reset. The 24-bit counter values are persistent unless
cleared manually by writing to the PC0MD SFR. Note that if the VBAT voltage ever drops below the mini-
mum operating voltage, this may compromise contents of the counters.
The PC0MD register should normally be written only once after reset. The PC0MD SFR is the master
mode register. This register sets the counter mode and sample rate. Writing to the PC0MD SFR also
resets the other PC0xxx SFRs.
Note that the RTC clock will reset on an MCU reset, so counting cannot resume until the RTC clock has
been re-started.
Firmware should read the re set sources SFR RSTS RC to determine the source of the last reset and initial-
ize the pulse counter accordingly.
When the pulse counter re set s, it takes so me time (typically two R TC clock cycles) to synchronize between
internal clock domains. The counters do not increment during this synchronization time.
25.8. Wake up and Interrupt Sources
The pulse counter has multiple inter rupt and wake-up so urce conditions. To enable an interrupt, enable the
source in the PC0INT0/1 SFRs and enable the pulse counter interrupt using bit 4 of the EIE2 register. The
pulse counter interrupt service routine should read the interrupt flags in PC0INT0/1 to determine the
source of the interrupt and clear the interrupt flags.

To enable the pulse counter as a wake up source, enable the source in the PC0INT0/1 SFRs and enable
the pulse counter as a wake-up source by setting bit 0 (PC0WK) to 1 in the PMU0FL SFR. Upon waking,
firmware should read the PMCU0CF and PMU0FL SFRs to determine the wake-up source. If the PC0WK
bit is set indicating that the pulse counter has woke the MCU, firmware should read the flag bits PC0INT0/1
SFRs to determine the pulse counter wake-up source and clear the flag bits before going back to sleep.
PC0INT0 includes the more common interrupt and wake-up sources. These include comparator match,
counter overflow, and quadrature direction change. PC0INT1 includes interrupt and wake-up sources for
the advanced fea tu re s, inc l ud ing flutter detectio n and qu a dr at ur e er ro r.
25.9. Real-Time Register Access
Several of the pulse counter registe rs values change in real-tim e synchronou s to the R T C clock. Hardwar e
synchronization between the RTC clock domain and the system clock domain hardware would result in
long delays when reading real-time registers. Instead, real-time register values are available instanta-
neously, but the read must be qualified using the read valid bit (PC0TH bit 0). If the register value do es not
change during the read access, the read valid bit will be set indicating the last was valid. If the value of the
real-time register changes during the read access, the read valid bit is 0, indicating the read was invalid.
After an invalid read, firmware must read the register and check the read valid bit again.
These 8-bit counter registers need to be qualified using the read valid bit:
PC0STAT
PC0HIST
PC0INT0
PC0INT1
PC0CTR0L
PC0CTC1L
The 24-bit counters are three-byte real-time read-only registers that require a special access method for
reading. Firmware must read the low-byte (PC0CTR0L and PC0CTR1L) first and qualify using the read
valid bit. Reading the low-byte latches the middle and high bytes. If the read valid bit is 0, the read is invali d
and firmware must read the low-byte and check th e rea d valid bit again. If the read valid bit is set, the read
is valid and the middle and high bytes are also safe to read. Firmware should read the middle and high
bytes only after reading the low byte and qualifying with the read valid bit.
The 24-bit comp ator s ar e three- byte r ea l-time read- writ e reg ister s that r equ ire a spe cial access method for
writing. Firmware must write the low-byte last. After writing the low-byte, it might take up to two RTC clock
cycles for the new comparator value to take effect. System designers should consider the synchronization
delay when setting the comparator value. The counter may be incremented before new comparator value
takes effect. Setting the comparator to at least 2 counts above the current count will eliminate the chance
of missing the comparator match during synchronization.
Example code is provided with accessor functions for all the real-time pulse counter registers.
25.10. Advanced Features
25.10.1. Quadrature Error
The quadrature encoder must only send valid quadrature codes. A valid quadrature sequence consists of
four valid states. The quadrature codes are only permitted to transition to one of the adjacent states, and
an invalid transition will result in a quadrature error. Note that a quadrature error is lik ely to occur when first
enabling the qua drature counter mode, since the pulse coun ter st ate ma chine st art s a t the L L st ate an d the
initial state of the quadrature is arbitrary. It is safe to ignore the first quadrature error immediately after ini-
tialization.

25.10.2. Flutter Detection
The flutter detection can be used with either quadrature counter mode or dual counter mode when the two
inputs are expected to be in step. Flutter refers to the case where one input continues toggling while the
other input stops toggling. This may indicate a broken reed switch or a pressure oscillation when the wheel
magnet stops at just the right distance from the reed switch. If a pressure oscillation causes a slight rota-
tional oscillation in the wheel, it could cause a number of pulses on one of the inputs, but not on the other.
All four edges are checked by the flutter detection feature (PC1 posit ive, PC1 negat ive, PC0 positive, and
PC0 negative).When enabled, Flutter detection may be used as an interrupt or wake-up source.
Figure 25.5. Flutter Example
For example, flutter detected on the PC0 positive edge means that 4 edges (positive or negative) were
detected on PC1 since the last PC0 positive edge. Each PC0 positive edge resets the flutter detection
counter while either PC1 edge increments the counter. There are similar counters for all four edges.
The flutter detection circuit provides interrupts or wake-up sources, but firmware must also read the pulse
counter registers to determine what corrective action, if any, must be taken.
On the start of flutter event, the firmware should sa ve both counter value s and the PC0HIST register. On ce
the end of flut ter even t occurs the firmware should also save b oth count er values and the P C0HIST regis -
ter. The stop coun t on flutter, STPCNTFLTR (PCMD[2]), be u sed to stop the coun ters when flutter is occu r-
ring (quadrature mode only). For quadrature mode, the opposite counter should be decremented by one.
In other words, if the direction was clockwise, the counterclockwise counter (Counter 1) should be decre-
mented by one to correct for one increment before flutter was detected. For dual mode, two reed switches
can be used to get a redundant count. If flutter starts during dual mode, both counters should be saved by
firmware. After flutter stops, both counters should be read again. The counter that incremented the most
was the one that picke d up the flu tter. Ther e is also a mode to switch from quadrature to dual (PC0MD[1])
when flutter occurs. This changes the counter style from quadrature (count on any edge of PC1 or PC0) to
dual to allow all count s to b e reco rd ed . Once flutte r ends, this mode switches the counters back to qu adra -
ture mode. STPCNTFLTR does not function when PC0MD[1] is set.

26. LCD Segment Driver (Si102x Only)
Si102x devices contain an LCD segment driver and on-chip bias generation that supports static, 2-mux, 3-
mux and 4-mux LCDs with 1/2 or 1/3 bias. The on-chip charge pump with programmable output voltage
allows software contrast control which is in depen den t of the sup ply voltage. LCD timing is derived fro m the
SmaRTClock oscillator to allow precise control over the refresh rate.
The Si102x uses special function registers (SFRs) to store the enabled/disabled state of individual LCD
segments. All LCD waveforms are generated on-chip based on the contents of the LCD0Dn registers. An
LCD blinking function is also supported. A block diagram of the LCD segment driver is shown in
Figure 26.1.
Figure 26.1. LCD Segment Driver Block Diagram
26.1. Configuring the LCD Segment Driver
The LCD segment driver supports multiple mux options: static, 2-mux, 3-mux, and 4-mux mode. It also
support s 1/2 and 1/3 bi as options. The desired mux mode a nd bias is configur ed through th e LCD0CN reg-
ister. A divide value may also be applied to the SmaRTClock output before being used as the LCD0 clock
source.
The following procedure is recommended for using the LCD segment driver:
1. Initialize the SmaRTClock and configure the LCD clock divide settin gs in the LCD0CN register.
2. Determine the GPIO pins which will be used for the LCD function.
3. Configure the port I/O pins to be used for LCD as analog I/O.
4. Configure the LCD size, mux mode, and bias using the LCD0CN register.
5. Enable the LCD bias and clock gate by writing 0x50 to the LCD0MSCN register.
6. Configure the device for the desired Contrast Control Mod e.
7. If VIO is internally or externally shorted to VBAT, disable the VL CD/VIO supply comparator using the

8. Set the LCD contrast using the LCD0CNTRST register.
9. Set the desired threshold for the VBAT supply monitor.
10. Set the LCD refresh rate using the LCD0DIVH:LCD0DIVL registers.
11. Write a pattern to the LCD0Dn registers.
12. Enable the LCD by setting bit 0 of LCD0MSCN to logic 1 (LCD0MSCN |= 0x01).
26.2. Mapping Data Reg isters to LCD Pins
The LCD0 data registers are organized as 16 byte-wide special function registers (LCD0Dn), each half-
byte or nibble in these registers controls 1 LCD output pin. There are 32 nibbbles used to control the 32
segment pins.
Each LCD0 segment pin can control 1, 2, 3, or 4 LCD segments depending on the selected mux mode.
The least significant bit of each nibble controls th e segment connect ed to the ba ckplane signal COM0. Th e
next to least sig nificant bit controls th e segment asso ciated with COM1, the ne xt bit controls the s egment
associated with COM2, and the m ost si g nificant bit in the 4-bi t nibble con trols the segment a ssociated with
COM3.
In static mode, only the least significant bit in each nibble is used and the three remaining bits in each nib-
ble are ignored. In 2-mux mode, only the two least significant bits are used; in 3-mux mode, only the three
least significant bits are used, and in 4-mux mode, each of the 4 bits in the nibble controls one LCD seg-
ment. Bits with a value o f 1 turn on the ass ociated segment and bits with a value of 0 turn off the associ-
ated segment.

26.3. LCD Contrast Adjustment
The LCD Bias voltages which deter mine the LCD contrast are generated using the VBAT supply voltage or
the on-chip charge pump. There are four contrast control modes to accomodate a wide variety of applica-
tions and supply voltages. The target contrast voltage is programmable in 60 mV steps from 1.9 to 3.72 V.
The LCD contrast voltage is controlled by the LCD0CNTRST register and the contrast control mode is
selected by setting the appropriate bits in the LCD0MSCN, LCD0MSCF, LCD0PWR, and LCD0VBMCN
registers.
Note: An external 10 µF decoupling capacitor is required on the VLCD pin to create a charge reservoir at the output of
the charge pump.
26.3.1. Contrast Control Mode 1 (Bypass Mode)
In Contrast Control Mode 1, the contrast control circuitry is disabled and the VLCD voltage follows the
VBAT supply voltage, as shown in Figure 26.3. This mode is useful in systems where the VBAT voltage
always remains constant and will provide the lowest LCD power consumption. Bypass Mode is selected
using the following procedure:
1. Clear Bit 2 of the LCD0MSCN register to 0b (LCD0MSCN &= ~0x04)
2. Set Bit 0 of the LCD0MSCF register to 1b (LCD0MSCF |= 0x01)
3. Clear Bit 3 of the LCD0PWR register to 0b (LCD0PWR &= ~0x08)
4. Clear Bit 7 of the LCD0VBMCN register to 0b (LCD0VBMCN &= ~0x80)

26.3.2. Contrast Control Mode 2 (Minimum Contrast Mode )
In Contrast Control Mode 2, a minimum contrast voltage is maintained, as shown in Figure 26.4. The
VLCD supply is powered directly from VBAT as long as VBAT is higher than the progr ammable VBAT mon-
itor threshold vo ltage. As soo n as th e VBAT supply m o nit or de te cts that VBAT has dr op pe d b elo w t he p ro-
grammed value, the charge pump will be automatically enabled in order to acheive the desired minimum
contrast voltage on VLCD. Minimum Contrast Mode is selected using the following procedure:
1. Clear Bit 2 of the LCD0MSCN register to 0b (LCD0MSCN &= ~0x04)
2. Set Bit 0 of the LCD0MSCF register to 1b (LCD0MSCF |= 0x01)
3. Set Bit 3 of the LCD0PWR register to 1b (LCD0PWR |= 0x08)
4. Set Bit 7 of the LCD0VBMCN register to 1b (LCD0VBMCN |= 0x80)
Figure 26.4. Contrast Control Mode 2
26.3.3. Contrast Control Mode 3 (Constant Contrast Mode)
In Contrast Control Mode 3, a const ant contrast volt age is maintained. The VLCD supply is r egulated to the
programmed contrast voltage using a variable resistor between VBAT and VLCD as long as VBAT is
higher than the programmable VBAT monitor threshold voltage. As soon as the VBAT supply monitor
detects that VBAT has dropped below the programmed value, the charge pump will be automatically
enabled in order to acheive the desired contrast voltage on VLCD. Constant Contrast Mode is selected
using the following procedure:
1. Set Bit 2 of the LCD0MSCN register to 1b (LCD0MSCN |= 0x04)
2. Clear Bit 0 of the LCD0MSCF register to 0b (LCD0MSCF &= ~0x01)
3. Set Bit 3 of the LCD0PWR register to 1b (LCD0PWR |= 0x08)
4. Set Bit 7 of the LCD0VBMCN register to 1b (LCD0VBMCN |= 0x80)

26.3.4. Contrast Control Mode 4 (Auto-Bypass Mode)
In Contrast Control Mode 4, behavior is identical to Constant Contrast Mode as long as VBAT is greater
than the VBAT monitor threshold voltage. When VBAT drops below the programmed threshold, the device
automatically enters bypass mode powering VLCD directly from VBAT. The charge pump is always dis-
abled in this mode. Auto-Bypass Mode is selected using the following procedure:
1. Set Bit 2 of the LCD0MSCN register to 1b (LCD0MSCN |= 0x04)
2. Clear Bit 0 of the LCD0MSCF register to 0b (LCD0MSCF &= ~0x01)
3. Clear Bit 3 of the LCD0PWR register to 0b (LCD0PWR &= ~0x08)

26.4. Adjusting the VBAT Monitor Threshold
The VBAT mon itor is used primar ily fo r the con tr ast c ontrol function, to detect when VBAT has fallen below
a specific thresh old. The VBAT monitor thresh old may be set independently of the contrast setting or it may
be linked to the contrast setting. When the VBAT monitor threshold is linked to the contrast setting, an off-
set (in 60mV steps) may be configured so that the VBAT monitor generates a VBAT low condition prior to
VBAT dropping below the programmed contrast voltage. The LCD0VBMCN register is used to enable and
configure the VBAT monitor. The VBAT monitor may be enabled as a wake-up source to wake up the
device from Sleep mode when the battery is getting low. See “19. Power Management” on page 264 for

26.6. Blinking LCD Segments
The LCD driver supports blinking LCD applications such as clock applications where the “:” separator tog-
gles on and off once per second. If the LCD is only displaying the hours and minutes, then the device only
needs to wake up once per minute to update the display. The once per second blinking is automatically
handled by the Si102x/3x.
The LCD0BLINK register can be used to enable blinking on any LCD segment connected to the LCD0 or
LCD1 segment pin. In static mode, a maximum of 2 segments can blink. In 2-mux mode, a maximum of 4
segments can blink; in 3-mux mode , a maximum of 6 segm ent s can blink; an d in 4-mux mode, a maximu m
of 8 segmen ts can blink. The L CD0BLINK ma sk register targets the s ame LCD segm ents as the LCD 0D0
register. If an LCD0BLINK bit corresponding to an LCD segment is set to 1, then that segment will toggle at
the frequency set by the LCD0TOGR register without any software intervention.

27. Port Input/Output
Digital and analog resources are available through 53 I/O pins. Port pins are organized as eight byte-wide
ports. Port pins can be defined as digital or analog I/O. Digital I/O pins can be assigned to one of the inte r-
nal digital resources or used as general purpose I/O (GPIO). Analog I/O pins are used by the internal ana-
log resources. P7.0 can be used as GPIO and is shared with the C2 Interface Data signal (C2D). See
Section “35. C2 Interface” on page 533 for more details.
The designer has complete control over which digital and analog functions are assigned to individual port
pins. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved through the use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. See
Section 27.3 for more information on the Crossbar.
For port I/Os configured as push-pull outputs, current is sourced from the VIO or VIORF supply pin. See
Section 27.1 for more information on port I/O operating modes and the electr ical sp ecificatio ns c hapter for
detailed electrical specifications.

27.1. Port I/O Modes of Operation
Port pins P0.0–P6.7 use the port I/O cell shown in Figure 27.2. The supply pin for P1.4 - P2.3 is VIORF
and the supply for all other GPIOs is VIO. Each port I/O cell ca n be configured by sof tware for analog I/O or
digital I/O using the PnMDIN registers. P7.0 can only be used for digital functtons and is shared with the
C2D signal. On reset, all port I/O cells default to a digita l high impedance st ate with weak pull-up s enabled.
27.1.1. Port Pins Configured for Analog I/O
Any pins to be used as comparator or ADC input, external oscillator input/output, or AGND, VREF, or cur-
rent reference output should be configured for analog I/O (PnMDIN.n = 0). When a pin is configured for
analog I/O, its weak pullup and digital receiver are disabled. In most cases, software should also disable
the digital output drivers. port pins configured for analo g I/O will always read back a value of 0 regardless
of the actual voltage on the pin.
Configuring pins as analog I/O saves power and isolates the port pin from digital interference. Port pins
configured as digital inputs may still be used by analog peripherals; however, this practice is not recom-
mended and may result in measurement errors.
27.1.2. Port Pins Configured For Digital I/O
Any pins to be used by digital peripherals (UART, SPI, SMBus, etc.), external digital event capture func-
tions, or as GPIO should be co nfigured as d igital I/O ( PnMDIN.n = 1). For digit al I/O pins, one of two ou tput
modes (push-pu ll or open-drain) must be selected using the PnMDOUT registers.
Push-pull outputs (PnMDOUT.n = 1) drive the port pad to the supply or GND rails based on the output lo gic
value of the port pin. Open-drain outputs have the high side dr iver disabled; therefore, they only drive the
port pad to GND when the ou tput logic value is 0 and become high impedance inputs (both high and low
drivers turned off) when the output logic value is 1.
When a digital I/O cell is placed in the high impedance state, a weak pull-up transistor pulls the port pad to
the supply voltage to ensure the digital input is at a defined logic state. Weak pull-ups are disabled when
the I/O cell is driven to GND to minimize power consumption and may be globally disabled by setting
WEAKPUD to 1. The user must ensure that digit al I/O are always internally or externally pulled or driven to
a valid logic state. Port pins configured for digital I/O always read back the logic state of the port pad,
regardless of the output logic value of the port pin.

27.1.3. Interfacing Port I/O to High Voltage Logic
All port I/O configured for digit al, open-drain operation a re capa ble of interfacing to d igit al logic operating at
a supply voltage up to VIO + 2 V. An external pull-up resistor to the higher supply voltage is typically
required for most systems.
27.1.4. Increasing Port I/O Drive Strength
Port I/O output drivers support a high and low drive strength; the default is low drive strength. The drive
strength of a port I/O can be configured using the PnDRV registers. See Section “4. Electrical Characteris-
tics” on page 50 for the difference in output drive strength be tween the two modes.
27.2. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Analog and Digital Functions
Port I/O pins P0.0–P2.6 can be assigned to various analog, digital, and external interrupt functions. The
port pins assigned to analog functions sh ould be configured fo r analog I/O, a nd port pins assigned to digita l
or external interrupt functions should be configured for digital I/O.
27.2.1. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Analog Functions
Table 27.1 shows all available analog functions that need port I/O assignments. Port pins selected for
these analog functions should have their digital drivers disabled (Pn M DO UT.n = 0 a n d Port La tc h =
1) and their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set to 1. This reserves the pin for use by the analog function
and does not allow it to be claimed by the crossbar. Table 27.1 shows the potential mapping of port I/O to
each analog function.

27.2.2. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Digital Functions
Any port pins not assigned to analog functions may be a ssigned to digi t al functi ons or used as GPIO. Most
digital functions rely on the crossbar for pin assignme nt; however, some digital functions bypass the cross-
bar in a manner similar to the analog functions listed above. Port pins used by these digital functions
and any port pins selected for use as GPIO should have their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set to 1.
Table 27.2 shows all available digital functions and the potential mapping of port I/O to each digital func-
tion.
27.2.3. Assigning Port I/O Pins to External Digital Event Capture Functions
External digital event capture functions can be used to trigger an interrupt or wake the device from a low
power mode when a transition occurs on a digit al I/O pin. The digital event capture functions do not require
dedicated pins and will function on both GPIO pins (PnSKIP = 1) and pins in use by the crossbar (PnSKIP
= 0). External digital even capture functions cannot be used on pins configured for analog I/O. Table 27.3
shows all available external digital event capture functions.

27.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder
The Priority Crossbar Decoder assigns a port I/O pin to each software selected digital function using the
fixed periph er a l pr ior ity order shown in Figure 27.3. The registers XBR0, XBR1, and XBR2 defined in SFR
Definition 27.1, SFR Definition 27.2, and SFR Definition 27.3 are used to select digital functions in the
crossbar. The port pins available for assignment by the crossbar include all port pins (P0.0–P2.6) which
have their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set to 0.
From Figure 27.3, the highest priority peri ph er al is UART0. If UART0 is selected in the crossbar (using the
XBRn registers), then P0.4 and P0.5 will be assigned to UART0. The next highest priority peripheral is
SPI1. If SPI1 is selected in the crossbar, then P2.0–P2.2 w ill be as signed to SPI1. P2.3 w ill be as signed if
SPI1 is configured for 4-wire mode. The user should ensure that the pins to be assigned by the crossbar
have their PnSKIP bits set to 0.
For all remaining digital functions selected in the crossbar, starting at the top of Figure 27.3 going down,
the least-significant unskipped, unassigned port pin(s) are assigned to that function. If a port pin is already
assigned (e.g., UART0 or SPI1 pins), or if its PnSKIP bit is set to 1, then the crossbar will skip over the pin
and find next available unskipped, unassigned port pin. All port pins used for analog functions, GPIO, or
dedicated digital functions such as the EMIF should have their PnSKIP bit set to 1.
Figure 27.3 shows the crossbar decoder priority with no port pins skipped (P0SKIP, P1SKIP, P2SKIP =
0x00); Figure 27.4 shows the crossbar decoder priority with the external oscillator pins (XTAL1 and XTAL2)
skipped (P0SKIP = 0x0C).
Important Notes:
The crossbar must be enabled (XBARE = 1) before any port pin is used as a digital output. Port output
drivers are disabled while the crossbar is disabled.
When SMBus is selected in the crossbar, the pins associated with SDA and SCL will automatically be
forced into open-drain output mode regardless of the PnMDOUT setting.
SPI0 can be operated in either 3-wire or 4-wire modes, depending on the state of the NSSMD1-
NSSMD0 bits in register SPI0CN. The NSS signal is only routed to a port pin when 4-wire mode is
selected. When SPI0 is selected in the crossbar, the SPI0 mode (3-wire or 4-wire) will affect the pinout
of all digital functions lower in priority than SPI0.
For given XBRn, PnSKIP, and SPInCN register setting s, one can determine the I/O pin-out of the
device using Figure 27.3 and Figure 27.4.

27.4. Port Match
Port match functionality allows system events to be triggered by a logic value change on P0 or P1. A soft-
ware controlled value stored in the PnMAT registers specifies the expected or normal logic values of P0
and P1. A port mismatch event occurs if the logic levels of the port’s input pins no longer match the soft-
ware controlled value. This allows software to be notified if a certain change or pattern occurs on P0 or P1
input pins regardless of the XBRn settings.
The PnMASK registers can be used to individually select which P0 and P1 pins should be compared
against the PnMAT registers. A port mismatch event is generated if (P0 & P0MASK) does not equal
(PnMAT & P0MASK) or if (P1 & P1MASK) does not equal (PnMAT & P1MASK).
A Port mismatch event may be used to generate an interrupt or wake the device from a low power mode.
See Section “17. Interrupt Handler” on page 238 and Section “19. Power Management” on page 264 for
more details on interrupt and wake-up sources.

27.5. Special Function Registers for Accessing and Configuring Port I/O
All port I/O are accessed through corresponding special function registers (SFRs) that are both byte
addressable and bit addr essable. When writing to a port, the value written to the SFR is latched to maint ain
the output data value at each pin. When reading, the logic levels of the port's input pins are returned
regardless of the XBRn settings (i.e., even when the pin is assigned to another signal by the crossbar, the
port register can always read its corresponding port I/O pin). The exception to this is the execution of the
read-modify-write instructions that target a port latch register as the destination. The read-modify-write
instructions when operating on a port SFR are the following: ANL, ORL, XRL, JBC, CPL, INC, DEC, DJNZ
and MOV, CLR or SETB, when the destination is an individu al bit in a port SF R. For these instructions, the
value of the latch register (not the pin) is read, modified, and written back to the SFR.
Each port has a corresponding PnSKIP register which allows its individual port pins to be assigned to digi-
tal functions or skipped by the crossbar. All port pins used for analog functions, GPIO, or dedicated digital
functions such as the EMIF should have their PnSKIP bit set to 1.
The port input mode of the I/O pins is defin ed using the por t Input Mode registers ( PnMDIN). Each port cell
can be configured for analog or d igit al I/O. This selection is r equired even for the digit al re source s selected
in the XBRn registers, an d is not automa tic. The on ly exception to this is P2.7, whic h can only be used for
digital I/O.
The output driver characteristics of the I/O pins are defined using the Port Output Mode registers (PnMD-
OUT). Each port output driver can be configured as either open drain or push-pull. This selection is
required even for the digital resources selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic. The only
exception to this is the SMBus (SDA, SCL) pins, which are configured as open-drain regardless of the
PnMDOUT settings.
The drive strength of the output drivers are controlled by the Port Drive Strength (PnDRV) registers. The
default is low drive strength. Se e Section “4. Electrical Cha racteristics” on p age 50 fo r the di ff erence in out-
put drive strength between the two modes.

28. SMBus
The SMBus I/O interface is a two-wire, bi-directional serial bus. The SMBus is compliant with the System
Management Bus Specification Version 1.1 and comp atible with the I2C serial bus. Reads and wri tes to the
interface by the system controller are byte oriented with the SMBus interface autonomously controlling the
serial transfer of the data. Data can be transferre d at up to 1/20th of the system clock as a master or slave
(this can be faster than allowed by the SMBus specification, depending on the system clock used). A
method of extending the clock-low duration is available to accommodate devices with different speed
capabilities on the same bus.
The SMBus interface may ope ra te as a maste r an d/or slave, and may function on a bus with multiple mas-
ters. The SMBus provides control of SDA (serial data), SCL (serial clock) generation and synchronization,
arbitration logic, and START/STOP control and generation. The SMBus peripheral can be fully driven by
software (i.e., sof tware accept s/r ejects slave addresses, and generates ACKs), or hardware slave address
recognition and automatic ACK generation can be enabled to minimize software overhead. A block dia-
gram of the SMBus peripheral and the associated SFRs is shown in Figure 28.1.

28.1. Supporting Documents
It is assumed the reader is familiar with or has access to the following supporting documents:
1. The I2C-Bus and How to Use It (including specifications), Philips Semiconductor.
2. The I2C-Bus Specification—Version 2.0, Philips Semiconductor.
3. System Management Bus Specification—Version 1.1, SBS Implementers Forum.
28.2. SMBus Configuration
Figure 28.2 shows a typical SMBus configuration. The SMBus specification allows any recessive voltage
between 3.0 V and 5.0 V; different devices on the bus may operate at dif fe rent volt age levels. The bi-dire c-
tional SCL (serial clock) and SDA (serial data) lines must be connected to a positive power supply voltage
through a pullup resistor or similar circuit. Every device connected to the bus must have an open-drain or
open-collector output for both the SCL and SDA lines, so that both are pulled high (recessive state) when
the bus is free. The maximum number of devices on th e bus is limited only by the requ irement that the r ise
and fall times on the bus not exceed 300 ns and 1000 ns, respectively.
Figure 28.2. Typical SMBus Configuration
28.3. SMBus Operation
Two types of data transfers are possible: data transfers from a master transmitter to an addressed slave
receiver (WRITE), and data transfers from an addressed slave transmitter to a master receiver (READ).
The master device initiates both types of data transfers and provides the serial clock pulses on SCL. The
SMBus interface may operate as a master or a slave, and multiple master devices on the same bus are
supported. If two or more masters attempt to initiate a data transfer simultaneously, an arbitration scheme
is employed with a single master always winnin g the arbitration. Note that it is not n ecessary to specify one
device as the Master in a system; any device who transmits a START and a slave address becomes the
master for the duration of that transfer.
A typical SMBus transaction consists of a START condition followed by an address byte (Bits7–1: 7-bit
slave address; Bit0: R/W direction bit), one or more bytes of data, and a STOP condition. Bytes that are
received (by a master or slave) are acknowledged (ACK) with a low SDA during a high SCL (see
Figure 28.3). If the receiving device does not ACK, the transmitting device will read a NACK (not acknowl-
edge), which is a high SDA during a high SCL.
The direction bi t (R/W) occupie s the least-sign ificant bit position of th e address byte. The direction bit is set
to logic 1 to indicate a "READ" operation and cleared to logic 0 to indicate a "WRITE" operation .

All transactions are initiated by a master, with one or more addressed slave devices as the target. The
master generates the START condition and then transmits the slave address and direction bit. If the trans-
action is a WRITE operation from the master to the slave, the master transmits the data a byte at a time
waiting for an ACK from the slave at the end of each byte. For READ operations, the slave transmits the
data waiting for an ACK from the master at the end of each byte. At the end of the data transfer, the master
generates a STOP condition to terminate the transaction and free the bus. Figure 28.3 illustrates a typical
SMBus transaction.
Figure 28.3. SMBus Transaction
28.3.1. Transmitter Vs. Receiver
On the SMBus communications interface, a device is the “transmitter” when it is sending an address or
data byte to another device on the bu s. A device is a “receiver” when an address or data byte is being se nt
to it from another device on the bus. The transmitte r con trols the SDA line durin g the addr ess or data byte.
After each byte of address or data information is sent by the transmitter, the receiver sends an ACK or
NACK bit during the ACK phase of the transfer, during which time the receiver controls the SDA line.
28.3.2. Arbitration
A master may star t a transfer on ly if the bus is free. The b us is free af ter a STOP condition or after the SCL
and SDA lines remain high for a specified time (see Section “28.3.5. SCL High ( SMBu s Fr ee) Timeout” on
page 391). In the event that two or more devices attempt to begin a transfer at the same time, an arbitra-
tion scheme is employed to force one master to give up the bus. The master devices continue transmitting
until one attempts a HIGH while the other transmits a LOW. Since the bus is open-drain, the bus will be
pulled LOW. The master attempting the HIGH will detect a LOW SDA and lose the arbitration. The winning
master continues its transmission without inter ruption; the losing master becomes a slave and receives the
rest of the transfer if addressed. This arbitration scheme is non-destructive: one device always wins, and
no data is lost.
28.3.3. Clock Low Extension
SMBus provides a clock synchronization mechanism, similar to I2C, which allows devices with different
speed capabilities to coexist on the bus. A clock-low extension is used during a transfer in order to allow
slower slave devices to communicate with faster masters. The slave may temporarily hold the SCL line
LOW to extend the clock low period, effectively decreasing the serial clock frequency.
28.3.4. SCL Low Timeout
If the SCL line is held low b y a slave device on the bus, n o further communica tion is possible . Furthermore,
the master cann ot force the SCL lin e high to corr ect th e error condition. To solve this problem, the SMBus
protocol specifies that devices participating in a transfer must detect any clock cycle held low longer than
25 ms as a “timeout” condition. Devices that have detected the timeout condition must reset the communi-
cation no later than 10 ms after detecting the tim eout condition.
When the SMBTOE bit in SMB0CF is set, Timer 3 is used to detect SCL low timeou ts. Timer 3 is forced to
reload when SCL is high, and allowed to count when SCL is low. With Timer 3 enabled and configured to

Si102x/3x
overflow after 25 ms (and SMBTOE set), the T imer 3 interrupt ser vice routine can be used to reset (disabl e
and re-enable) the SMBus in the event of an SCL low timeout.
28.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout
The SMBus specification stipulates that if the SCL and SDA lines remain high for more that 50 µs, the bus
is designated as free. When the SMBFTE bit in SMB0CF is set, the bus will be considered free if SCL and
SDA remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (as defined by the timer configured for the
SMBus clock source). If the SMBus is waiting to generate a Master START, the START will be generated
following this timeout. A clock source is required for free timeout detection, even in a slave- onl y im plemen-
tation.
28.4. Using the SMBus
The SMBus can operate in both Master and Slave modes. The interface provides timing and shifting con-
trol for serial transfers; higher level protocol is determined by user software. The SMBus interface provides
the following application-independent features:
Byte-wise serial data transfers
Clock signal generation on SCL (Master Mode only) and SDA data synchronization
Timeout/bus error recognition, as defined by the SMB0CF configuration register
START/STOP timing, detection, and generation
Bus arbitration
Interrupt generation
Status information
Optional hardware recognition of slave address and automatic acknowledgement of address/data
SMBus interrupts are generated for each data byte or slave address that is transferred. When hardware
acknowledgement is disabled, the point at which the interrupt is generated depends on whether the hard-
ware is acting as a data transmitter or receiver. When a transmitter (i.e., sending address/data, receiving
an ACK), this interrupt is gener ated af ter the ACK cycl e so that sof tware may read the receive d ACK value;
when receiving data (i.e., receiving address/data, sending an ACK), this interrupt is generated before the
ACK cycle so that software may define the outgoing ACK value. If hardware ackn owled gemen t is en able d,
these interrupts are always generated after the ACK cycle. See Section 28.5 for more details on transmis-
sion sequences.
Interrupts are also generated to indicate the beginning of a transfer when a master (START generated), or
the end of a transfer when a slave (STOP detected). Software should read the SMB0CN (SMBus Control
register) to find the cause of the SMBus interrupt. The SMB0CN register is described in Section 28.4.2;
Table 28.5 provides a quick SMB0CN decoding reference.
28.4.1. SMBus Configuration Re gister
The SMBus Configuration register (SMB0CF) is used to enable the SMBus Master and/or Slave modes,
select the SMBus clock source, and select the SMBus timing and timeout options. When the ENSMB bit is
set, the SMBus is enabled for all master and slave events. Slave events may be disabled by setting the
INH bit. With slave events inhibited, the SMBus interface will still monitor the SCL and SDA pins; however,
the interface will NACK all received addresses and will not generate any slave interrupts. When the INH bit
is set, all slave events will be inhibited following the next START (interrupts will continue for the duration of
the current trans fe r) .
Si102x/3x
392 Rev. 0.3
The SMBCS1–0 bits select the SMBus clock source, which is used only when operating as a master or
when the Free Timeout detection is enabled. When operating as a master, overflows from the selected
source determine the absolute minimum SCL low and high times as defined in Equation 28.1. The
selected clock source may be shared by other peripherals so long as the timer is left running at all times.
For example, Timer 1 overflows may generate the SMBus and UART baud rates simultaneously. Timer
configuration is covered in Section “33. Timers” on page 491.
Equation 28.1. Minimum SCL High and Low Times
The selected clock source should be configured to establish the minimum SCL High and Low times as per
Equation 28.1. When the interface is operating as a master (and SCL is not driven or extended by any
other devices on the bus ), the typ i ca l SMBus bit rate is approximated by Equation 28.1.
Equation 28.2. Typical SMBus Bit Rate
Figure 28.4 shows the typical SCL generation described by Equation 28.2. Notice that THIGH is typically
twice as large as TLOW. The actual SCL output may vary due to other devices on the bus (SCL may be
extended low by slower slave devices, or driven low by contending master devices). The bit rate when
operating as a master will never exceed the limits defined by Equation 28.2.
Figure 28.4. Typical SMBus SCL Generation
Setting the EXTHOLD bit extends the minimum setup and hold times for the SDA line. The minimum SDA
setup time defines the absolute minimum time that SDA is stable before SCL tr ansitions from low- to-high.
The minimum SDA hold time defin es the absolute mini mum time that the cur rent SDA value remains stabl e
after SCL transitions from high-to-low. EXTHOLD should be set so that the minimum setup and hold times
meet the SMBus Specification requirement s o f 250 n s and 300 ns, resp ective ly. Table 28.2 shows the min-
imum setup and hold times for the two EXTHOLD settings. Setup and hold time extensions are typically
necessary when SYSCLK is above 10 MHz.

With the SMBTOE bit set, Timer 3 should be configured to overflow after 25 ms in order to detect SCL low
timeouts (see Section “28.3.4. SCL Low Timeout” on page 390). The SMBus interface will force Timer 3 to
reload while SCL is hig h, and allow Timer 3 to count when SCL is lo w. The Timer 3 interrupt ser vice routine
should be used to reset SMBus communication by disabling and re-enabling the SMBus.
SMBus Free T imeout detection can be enabled by setting the SMBFTE bit. When this bit is set, the bus will
be considered free if SDA and SCL remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (see
Figure 28.4).

28.4.2. SMB0CN Control Regi st er
SMB0CN is used to control the interface and to provide status information (see SFR Definition 28.2). The
higher four bits of SMB0CN (MASTER, TXMODE, STA, and STO) form a status vector that can be used to
jump to service routines. MASTER indicates whether a device is the master or slave during the current
transfer. TXMODE indicates whether the device is transmitting or re ceiving data for the curre nt byte.
STA and STO indicate that a START and/or STOP has been detected or generated since the last SMBus
interrupt. STA and STO are also used to gene ra te START and STOP conditions when operating as a mas-
ter. Writing a 1 to STA will cause the SMBus interface to enter Master Mode and generate a START when
the bus be comes free (STA is not clea red by h ardwar e after the START is generated). Writing a 1 to STO
while in Master Mode will cause the interface to generate a STOP and end the current transfer after the
next ACK cycle. If STO and STA are both set (while in Master Mode), a STOP followed by a START will be
generated.
The ARBLOST bit indicates that the interface has lost an arbitration. This may occur anytime the interface
is transmitting (master or slave). A lost arbitration while operating as a slave indicates a bus error condi-
tion. ARBLOST is cleared by hardware each time SI is cleared.
The SI bit (SMBus Interrupt Flag) is set at the be ginning and end of each tran sfer, af ter each byte frame, or
when an arbitration is lost; see Table 28.3 for more details.
Import ant Note About t he SI Bit : The SMBus interface is stalled while SI is set; thus SCL is held low, and
the bus is stalled until software clears SI.
28.4.2.1. Software ACK Generation
When the EHACK bit in register SMB0ADM is cleared to 0, the firmware on the device must detect incom-
ing slave addresses and ACK or NACK the slave address and incoming data bytes. As a receiv er, writing
the ACK bit defines the outgoing ACK value; as a transmitter, reading the ACK bit indicates the value
received during the last ACK cycle. ACKRQ is set each time a byte is received, indicating that an outgoing
ACK value is needed. When ACKRQ is set, software should write the desired outgoing value to the ACK
bit before clearing SI. A NACK will be generated if software does not write the ACK bit before clearing SI.
SDA will reflect the defined ACK value immediately following a write to the ACK bit; however SCL will
remain low until SI is cleared. If a received slave address is not acknowledged, further slave events will be
ignored until the next START is detected.
28.4.2.2. Hardware ACK Generation
When the EHACK bit in register SMB0ADM is set to 1, automatic slave address recognition and ACK gen-
eration is enabled. More detail about automatic slave address recognition can be found in Section 28.4.3 .
As a receiver, the value currently specified by the ACK bit will be automatically sent on the bus during the
ACK cycle of an incoming data byte. As a transmitter, reading the ACK bit indicates the value received on
the last ACK cyc le. The ACKRQ bit is no t used when hardware ACK generation is enab led. If a received
slave address is NACKed by hardware, further slave events will be ignored until the next START is
detected, and no interrupt will be generated.
Table 28.3 lists all sources for hardware changes to the SMB0CN bits. Refer to Table 28.5 for SMBus sta-
tus decoding using the SMB0CN register.

28.4.3. Hardware Slave Address Recognition
The SMBus hardware has the capa bility to automatically recognize incoming slave addresses and send an
ACK without software intervention. Automatic slave address recognition is enabled by setting the EHACK
bit in register SMB0ADM to 1. This will enable both automatic slave address recognition and automatic
hardware ACK generation for received bytes (as a master or slave). More detail on automatic hardware
ACK generation can be found in Section 28.4.2.2.
The registers used to define which address(es) are recognized by the hardware are the SMBus Slave
Address register (SFR Definition 28.3) and the SMBus Slave Address Mask register (SFR Definition 28.4).
A single address or range of addresses (including the General Call Address 0x00) can be specified using
these two registers. The most-significant seven bits of the two registers are used to define which
addresses will be ACKed. A 1 in bit positions of the slave address mask SLVM[6:0] enable a comparison
between the received slave address and the hardware’s slave address SLV[6:0] for those bits. A 0 in a bit
of the slave address mask means that bit w ill be treated as a “don’t care” for comparison purposes. In this
case, either a 1 or a 0 value are acceptable on the incoming slave address. Additionally, if the GC bit in
register SMB0ADR is set to 1, hardware will recognize the General Call Address (0x00). Table 28.4 shows
some example parameter settings and the slave addresses that will be recognized by hardware under
those conditions.

28.4.4. Data Register
The SMBus Data register SMB0DAT holds a byte of serial data to be transmitted or one that has just been
received. Software may safely read or write to the data r egister when th e SI flag is set. Sof twar e should not
attempt to acce ss the SMB0DAT register when the SM Bus is enabled a nd the SI flag is cleared to logi c 0,
as the interface may be in th e process of shifting a byte of data into or out of the register.
Data in SMB0DAT is always shifted out MSB first. After a byte has been received, the first bit of received
data is located at the MSB of SMB0DAT. While data is being shifted out, data on the bus is simultaneously
being shifted in. SMB0DAT always contains the last data byte prese nt on the bu s. In th e even t of lost a rbi-
tration, the transition from master transmitter to slave receiver is made with the correct data or address in
SMB0DAT.
SFR Page = 0x0; SFR Address = 0xC2
28.5. SMBus Transfer Modes
The SMBus interface may be configured to operate as master and/or slave. At any particular time, it will be
operating in one of the following four modes: Master Transmitter, Master Receiver, Slave Transmitter, or
Slave Receiver. The SMBus interfa ce enters M aster Mode any time a START is generated, and remains i n
Master Mode until it loses an arbitration or generates a STOP. An SMBus interrupt is generated at the end
of all SMBus byte frames. Note that the position of the ACK interrupt when operating as a receiver
depends on whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. As a receiver, the interrupt for an ACK occurs
before the ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK genera-
tion is enabled. As a transm itter, inter rupt s occur after the ACK, regardle ss of whether h ardware ACK gen-
eration is enabled or not.
28.5.1. Write Sequence (Master)
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The master in this transfer will be
a transmitter dur ing the ad dress byt e, and a tran smitter du ring all da ta bytes. The SMBus inte rface ge ner -
ates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 0 (WRITE). The master then trans-
mits one or more bytes of serial data. After each byte is transmitted, an acknowledge bit is generated by
the slave. The transfer is ended when the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. Note that the interface
will switch to Master Receiver Mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a Master Transmitter interrupt.

The SMB0DAT register contains a byte of data to be transmitted on the SMBus
serial interface or a byte th at has just been received on the SMBu s serial interf ace.
The CPU can read fr om or write to this re gister whenever the SI serial interrupt flag
(SMB0CN.0) is set to logic 1. The serial data in the register remains stable as long
as the SI flag is set. When the SI flag is not set, the system may be in the process
of shifting data in/out and the CPU should not attempt to access this register.

Figure 28.5 shows a typical master write sequence. Two transmit data bytes are shown, though any num-
ber of bytes may be transmitted. All “data byte transferred” interrupts occur after the ACK cycle in this
mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.
Figure 28.5. Typical Master Write Sequence
28.5.2. Read Sequence (Master)
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The master in this transfer will
be a transmitter during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. The SMBus interface gener-
ates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 1 (READ). Serial data is then
received from the slav e on SDA while th e SMBus output s the seria l clock. The sla ve transmit s one o r more
bytes of serial data.
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,
and then post the interrupt. It is important to note that the appropriate ACK or NACK value should be
set up by the software prior to receiving the byte whe n hardware ACK generation is enabled.
Writing a 1 to the ACK bit generates an ACK; writing a 0 generates a NACK. Software should write a 0 to
the ACK bit for the last data transfer, to transmit a NACK. The interface exits Master Receiver Mode after
the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. The interface will switch to Master Transmitter Mode if
SMB0DAT is written while an active Master Receiver. Figure 28.6 shows a typical master read sequence.
Two received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. The “data byte trans-
ferred” interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether hardware ACK genera-
tion is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after
the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

28.5.3. Write Sequence (Slave)
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slav e device. The slave in this transfer w ill be
a receiver during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. When slave events are enabled
(INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode when a STAR T followed by a slave address and dire c-
tion bit (WRITE in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation is disabled, upon entering Slave
Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The software must respond to the
received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address with a NACK. If hardware ACK
generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address which matches the criteria set
up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK cycle.
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are
received.
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,
and then post the interrupt. The appropriate ACK or NACK value should be set up by the software
prior to receiving the byte when hardware ACK generation is enabled.
The interface exits Slave Receiver Mode after receiving a ST OP. Note that the interface will switch to Slave
Transmitter Mode if SMB0DAT is written while an active Slave Receiver. Figure 28.7 shows a typical slave
write sequence. Two received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. Notice
that the ‘data byte transferred’ interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether
hardware ACK generation is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation
disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

28.5.4. Read Sequence (Slave)
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The slave in this transfer will
be a receiver during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. When slave events are
enabled (INH = 0), the inter face ente rs Slave Receiver Mode (to receive the slave address) when a START
followed by a slave address and direction bit (READ in this case) is received. If hardware ACK g eneration
is disabled, upon entering Slave Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The
software must respond to the received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address
with a NACK. If hardware ACK generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address
which matches the criteria set up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK
cycle.
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the
next START is detected. If the r eceived slav e address is acknowled ged, zero or mo re data bytes are trans-
mitted. If the receiv ed slave ad dre ss is ackno wled ged, data shoul d be writte n to SMB0 DAT to be transmit-
ted. The interface enter s Slave Transmitter Mode, an d transmit s one or more byte s of dat a. Af ter each byte
is transmitted, the master sends an acknowledge bit; if the acknowledge bit is an ACK, SMB0DAT should
be written with the next data byte. If the acknowledge bit is a NACK, SMB0DAT should not be written to
before SI is cleared (an error condition may be generated if SMB0DAT is written following a received
NACK while in Slave Transmitter Mode). The interface exits Slave Transmitter Mode after receiving a
STOP. Note that the interface will switch to Slave Receiver Mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a
Slave Transmitter interrupt. Figure 28.8 sh ows a typical slave re ad sequence. Two tr ansmitted data bytes
are shown, though any number of bytes may be transmitted. All of the “data byte transferred” interrupts
occur after the ACK cycle in this mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.

28.6. SMBus Status Decoding
The current SMBus status can be easily decoded using the SMB0CN register. The appropriate actions to
take in response to an SMBus event depend on whether hardware slave address recognition and ACK
generation is enabled or disabled. Table 28.5 describes the typical actions when hardware slave address
recognition and ACK generation is disabled. Table 28.6 describes the typical actions when hardware slave
address recognition and ACK generation is enabled. In the tables, STATUS VECTOR refers to the four
upper bits of SMB0CN: MASTER, TXMODE, STA, and STO. The shown respo nse options are only the typ-
ical responses; application-specific procedures are allowed as long as they conform to the SMBus specifi-
cation. Highlighted responses are allowed by hardware but do not conform to the SMBus specification.

29. UART0
UART0 is an asynchronous, full duplex serial port offering modes 1 and 3 of the standard 8051 UART.
Enhanced baud rate su pport allows a wide r ange o f clock sources to ge nera te st an dard ba ud r ates (det ails
in Section “29.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation” on page 410). Received data buffering allow s UART0
to start reception of a second incoming data byte before software has finished reading the previous data
byte.
UART0 has two associated SFRs: Serial Control Register 0 (SCON0) and Serial Data Buffer 0 (SBUF0).
The single SBUF0 location provides access to both transmit and receive registers. Writes to SBUF0
always access the Tran smit re giste r. Re ads of SBUF0 alway s acces s t he buf fered Receive register;
it is not possible to read data from the Transmit register.
With UART0 interrupts enabled, an interrupt is generated each time a transmit is completed (TI0 is set in
SCON0), or a data byte has been received (RI0 is set in SCON0). The UART0 interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardwa re when the CPU vectors to th e interrupt ser vice routine. They must be cle ared manually
by software, allowing software to determine the cause of the UART0 interrupt ( transmit complete or receive
complete).

29.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation
The UART0 baud rate is generated by Timer 1 in 8-bit auto-reload mode. The TX clock is generated by
TL1; the RX clock is generated by a copy of TL1 (shown as RX Timer in Figure 29.2), which is not user-
accessible. Both TX and RX Timer overflows are divided by two to generate the TX and RX baud rates.
The RX Timer runs when Timer 1 is enabled, and uses the same reload value (TH1). However, an
RX Timer reload is forced when a START condition is detected on the RX pin. This allows a receive to
begin any time a START is detected, independent of the TX Timer state.
Figure 29.2. UART0 Baud Rate Logic
Timer 1 should be configured for Mode 2, 8-bit auto-reload (see Section “33.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Coun-
ter/Timer with Auto-Reload” on page 494). The Timer 1 reload value should be set so that overflows will
occur at two times the desired UART baud rate frequency. Note that Timer 1 may be clocked by one of six
sources: SYSCLK, SYSCLK / 4, SYSCLK / 12, SYSCLK / 48, the external oscillator clock / 8, or an exter-
nal input T1. For any given Timer 1 clock source, the UART0 baud rate is determined by Equation -A and
Equation -B.
UART0 Baud Rate
Where T1CLK is the frequency of the clock supplied to Timer 1, and T1H is the high byte of Timer 1 (reload
value). Timer 1 clock frequency is selected as described in Section “33.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on
page 493. A quick reference for typical baud rates and system clock frequencies is given in Table 29.1
through Table 29.2. Note that the internal oscillator may still generate the system clock when the external
oscillator is driving Timer 1.

29.2. Operational Modes
UART0 provides standard asynchronous, full duplex communication. The UART mode (8-bit or 9-bit) is
selected by the S0MODE bit (SCON0.7). Typical UART connection options are shown below.
Figure 29.3. UART Interconnect Diagram
29.2.1. 8-Bit UART
8-Bit UART mode uses a total of 10 bits per data byte : one st art bit, eight dat a bi ts (LSB first), and on e stop
bit. Data are transmitted LSB first from the TX0 pin and received at the RX0 pin. On receive, the eight data
bits are stored in SBUF0 and the stop bit goes into RB80 (SCON0.2).
Data transmission begins when software writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit Inter-
rupt Flag ( SCON0.1) is set at th e end of the transm ission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data recep-
tion can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to logic 1. After the stop bit is
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:
RI0 must be logic 0, and if MCE0 is logic 1, the stop bit must be logic 1. In the event of a receive data over-
run, the first received 8 bits are latched into the SBUF0 receive register and the following overrun d ata bits
are lost.
If these condition s ar e me t, the eig h t bits of data is stored in SBUF0, the stop bit is stored in RB80 and the
RI0 flag is set. If these conditions are not met, SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not
be set. An interrupt will occur if enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set.

29.2.2. 9-Bit UART
9-bit UART mode uses a total of eleven bits per data byte: a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), a programma-
ble ninth data bit, and a stop bit. The state of the ninth transmit data bit is determined by the value in TB80
(SCON0.3), which is assigned by user so f twa re. It ca n be assigned the value of the parity flag (bit P in reg-
ister PSW) for error detection, or used in multiprocessor communications. On receive, the ninth data bit
goes into RB80 (SCON0.2) and the stop bit is ignored.

Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Tr ansmit
Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data
reception can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to 1. After the stop bit is
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:
(1) RI0 must be logic 0, and (2) if MCE0 is logic 1, the 9th bit must be logic 1 (when MCE0 is logic 0, the
state of the ninth data bit is unimportant). If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data are stored in
SBUF0, the ninth bit is stored in RB80, and the RI0 flag is set to 1. If the above conditions are not met,
SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not be set to 1. A UART0 interrupt will occur if
enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set to 1.
Figure 29.5. 9-Bit UART Timing Diagram
29.3. Multiprocessor Communications
9-Bit UART mode supports multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more
slave processors by special use of the ninth dat a bit. When a master proce ssor wa nts to transmit to one or
more slaves, it first sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs from a data byte
in that its ninth bit is logic 1; in a data by te , the nint h bit is alwa ys se t to logi c 0.
Setting the MCE0 bit (SCON0.5) of a slave processor configures its UART such that when a stop bit is
received, the UART will generate an interrupt only if the ninth bit is logic 1 (RB8 0 = 1) signifying a n address
byte has been received. In the UART interrupt handler, software will compare the received address with
the slave's own assigned 8-bit address. If the addresses match, the slave will clear its MCE0 bit to enable
interrupts on the reception of the following data byte(s). Slaves that weren't addressed leave their MCE0
bits set and do not generate interrupts on the reception of the following data bytes, thereby ignoring the
data. Once the entire message is received, the addressed slave resets its MCE0 bit to ignore all transmis-
sions until it receives the next address byte.
Multiple address es can be assigned to a sin gle slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple
slaves, thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The master
processor can be configured to receive all transmissions or a protocol can be implemented such that the
master/slave role is temporarily reversed to enable half-duplex transmission between the original master
and slave(s).

30. Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0)
The Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0) provides access to a flexible, full-duplex synchronous
serial bus. SPI0 can operate as a master or slave device in both 3-wire or 4-wire modes, and supports mul-
tiple masters and slaves on a single SPI bus. The slave-select (NSS) signal can be configured as an input
to select SPI0 in slave mode, or to disable Master Mode operation in a multi-master environment, avoiding
contention on the SPI bus when more than one master attempts simultaneous data transfers. NSS can
also be configur ed as a ch ip-select ou tput in master mode, or disabled fo r 3-wire operation. Add itional gen-
eral purpose port I/O pins can be used to select multiple slave devices in master mode.

30.1. Signal Descriptions
The four signals used by SPI0 (MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS) are described below.
30.1.1. Master Out, Slave In (MOSI)
The master-out, slave-in (MOSI) signal is an output from a master dev ice and an inpu t to slav e dev ices. It
is used to serially trans fer data from the ma ster to th e slave. This signal is an output when SPI0 is operat-
ing as a master and an input when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit
first. When configured as a master, MOSI is driven by the MSB of the shift register in both 3- and 4-wire
mode.
30.1.2. Master In, Slave Out (MISO)
The master-in, slave-out (MISO) signal is an output from a slave device and an input to the master device.
It is used to serially transfer data from the slave to the master. This signal is an input when SPI0 is operat-
ing as a master and an output when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-sig nificant bit
first. The MISO pin is placed in a high-impeda nce sta te when the SPI module is di sabled and when the SPI
operates in 4-wire mode as a slave that is not selected. When acting as a slave in 3-wire mode, MISO is
always driven by the MSB of the shift register.
30.1.3. Serial Clock (SCK)
The serial c lock (SCK) signal is an ou tput from the m aster device and an input to slave devices. It is used
to synchronize the transfer of data between the master and slave on the MOSI and MISO lines. SPI0 gen-
erates this signal when operating as a master. The SCK signal is ignored by a SPI slave when the slave is
not selected (NSS = 1) in 4-wire slave mode.
30.1.4. Slave Select (NSS)
The function of the slave-select (NSS) signal is dependent on the setting of the NSSMD1 and NSSMD0
bits in the SPI0CN register. There are three possible modes that can be selected with these bits:
1. NSSMD[1:0] = 00: 3-Wire Master or 3-Wire Slave Mode: SPI0 operates in 3-wire mode, and NSS is
disabled. When o perating as a slave device, SPI0 is always se lected in 3-wire mode. Since no select
signal is present, SPI0 must be the only slave on the bus in 3-wire mode. This is intended for point-
to-point communication between a master and one slave.
2. NSSMD[1:0] = 01: 4-Wire Slave or Multi-Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is
enabled as an inpu t. Whe n oper at ing as a slave, NSS selects the SPI0 device. When operating as a
master, a 1-to-0 transition of the NSS signal disables the master function of SPI0 so that multiple
master devices can be used on the same SPI bus.
3. NSSMD[1:0] = 1x: 4-Wire Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is enabled as an
output. The setting of NSSMD0 determines what logic level the NSS pin will output. This
configuration sh ou ld only be use d when operating SPI0 as a master device.
See Figure 30.2, Figure 30.3, and Figure 30.4 for typical connection diagrams of the various operational
modes. Note that the setting of NSSMD bits affect s the pinou t of the device. When in 3-wir e maste r or
3-wire slave mode, the NSS pin will not be mapped by the crossbar. In all other modes, the NSS signal will
be mapped to a pin on the device. See Section “27. Port Input/Output” on page 358 for general purpose
port I/O and crossbar information.
30.2. SPI0 Master Mode Operation
A SPI master device initiates all data transfe r s on a SPI bu s. SPI0 is p laced in master m ode by se tting the
Master Enable flag (MSTEN, SPI0CN.6). Writing a byte of data to the SPI0 data register (SPI0DAT) when
in master mode writes to the transmit buffer. If the SPI shift register is empty, the byte in the transmit buffer
is moved to the shift registe r, and a da ta transfer begins. The SPI0 master immediately shifts out the data
serially on the MOSI line while providing the serial clock on SCK. The SPIF (SPI0CN.7) flag is set to logic
1 at the end of the transfer. If interrupts are enabled, an interrupt request is generated when the SPIF flag
Si102x/3x
420 Rev. 0.3
is set. While the SPI0 master transfers data to a slave on the MOSI line, the addressed SPI slave device
simultaneously transfers the contents of its shift register to the SPI master on the MISO line in a full-duplex
operation. Therefore, the SPIF flag serves as both a transmit-complete and receive-data-ready flag. The
data byte received from the slave is transferred MSB-first into the master's shift register. When a byte is
fully shifted into the register, it is moved to the receive buffer where it can be read by the processor by
reading SPI0DAT.
When configured as a master, SPI0 ca n operate in one of three dif ferent mo des: multi-master mode, 3 -wire
single-master mode, and 4-wire single-master mode. The default, multi-master mode is active when
NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In this mode, NSS is an input to the device, and
is used to disable the master SPI0 when another master is accessing the bus. When NSS is pulled low in
this mode, MSTEN (SPI0CN.6) and SPIEN (SPI0CN.0) are set to 0 to disable the SPI master device, and
a Mode Fault is generated (MODF, SPI0CN.5 = 1). Mode Fault will generate an interrupt if enabled. SPI0
must be manually re-enabled in software under these circumstances. In multi-master systems, devices will
typically default to being sla ve devices wh ile they are not a cting as the system master device. In multi-mas -
ter mode, slave devices can be addressed individually (if needed) using general-purpose I/O pins.
Figure 30.2 shows a connection diagram between two master devices in multiple-master mode.
3-wire single-m aster m ode is active wh en NSSMD1 (S PI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. In this
mode, NSS is not used, and is not mapped to an external por t pin through the crossbar. Any slave devices
that must be addressed in this mode should be selected using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 30.3
shows a connection diagram between a master device in 3-wire master mode and a slave device.
4-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 1. In this mode, NSS is configured as an
output pin, and can be used as a slave-select signal for a single SPI device. In this mode, the output value
of NSS is controlled (in software) with the bit NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2). Additional slave devices can be
addressed using gene ral-p urpose I/O pins. Figure 30.4 shows a connection diagram for a master device i n
4-wire master mode and two slave devices.

30.3. SPI0 Slave Mode Operation
When SPI0 is enabled and not configured as a master, it will operate as a SPI slave. As a slave, bytes are
shifted in through the MOSI pin and out through the MISO pin by a master device controlling the SCK sig-
nal. A bit coun te r in the SPI0 lo gic cou nts SCK edges. When 8 bits have be en shifted through the shif t reg-
ister, the SPIF flag is set to logic 1, and the byte is copied into the receive buffer. Data is read from the
receive buffer by reading SPI0DAT. A slave device cannot initiate transfers. Data to be transferred to the
master device is pre-loaded into the shift register by writing to SPI0DAT. Writes to SPI0DAT are double-
buf fered, and a re placed in the tra nsmit buf fer first. If the shif t re gister is e mpty, the contents of th e transmit
buffer will immediately be transferred into the shift register. When the shift register already contains data,

the SPI will load the shift register with the transmit buffer’s contents after the last SCK edge of the next (or
current) SPI transfer.
When configured as a slave, SPI0 can be configured for 4-wire or 3-wire operation. The default, 4-wire
slave mode, is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In 4- wire mode, the
NSS signal is routed to a port pin and configured as a digital input. SPI0 is enabled when NSS is logic 0,
and disabled when NSS is logic 1. The bit counter is reset on a falling edge of NSS. Note that the NSS sig-
nal must be driven low at least 2 system clocks before the first active edge of SCK for each byte transfer.
Figure 30.4 shows a connection diagram between two slave devices in 4-wire slave mode and a master
device.
3-wire slave mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. NSS is not
used in this mode, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Since ther e is no way of
uniquely addressing the device in 3-wire slave mode, SPI0 must be the only slave device present on the
bus. It is important to note that in 3-wire slave mode there is no external means of resetting the bit counter
that determines when a full byte has been received. The bit counter can only be reset by disabling and re-
enabling SPI0 with the SPI EN bit. Figure 30.3 shows a connection diagram between a slave device in 3-
wire slave mode an d a ma st er dev ice.
30.4. SPI0 Interrupt Sources
When SPI0 interrupts are enabled, the following four flags will generate an interrupt when they are set to
logic 1:
All of the following bits must be cleared by software.
The SPI Interrupt Flag, SPIF (SPI0CN.7) is set to logic 1 at the end of each byte transfer. This flag can
occur in all SPI0 modes.
The Write Collision Flag, WCOL (SPI0CN.6) is set to logic 1 if a write to SPI0DAT is attempted when
the transmit buffer has not been emptied to the SPI shift register. When this occurs, the write to
SPI0DAT will be ignored, and the transmit buffer will not be written.This flag can occur in all SPI0
modes.
The Mode Fault Flag MODF (SPI0CN.5) is set to logic 1 when SPI0 is configured as a master, and for
multi-master mode and the NSS pin is pulled low. When a Mode Fault occurs, the MSTEN and SPIEN
bits in SPI0CN are set to logic 0 to disable SPI0 and allow another master device to access the bus.
The Receive Overrun Flag RXOVRN (SPI0CN.4) is set to logic 1 when configured as a slave, and a
transfer is completed and the receive buffer still holds an unread byte from a previous transfer. The new
byte is not transferred to the receive buffer, allowing the previously received data byte to be read. The
data byte which caused the overrun is lost.
30.5. Serial Clock Phase and Polarity
Four combinations of serial clock phase and polarity can be selected using the clock control bits in the
SPI0 Configuration Register (SPI0CFG). The CKPHA bit (SPI0CFG.5) selects one of two clock phases
(edge used to latch the data). The CKPOL bit (SPI0CFG.4) selects between an active-high or active-low
clock. Both master and slave devices must be configured to use the same clock phase and polarity. SPI0
should be disabled (by clearing the SPIEN bit, SPI0CN.0) when changing the clock phase or polarity. The
clock and data line relationships for master mode are shown in Figure 30.5. For slave mode, the clock and
data relationships are shown in Figure 30.6 and Figure 30.7. Note that CKPHA should be set to 0 on both
the master and slave SPI when communicating between two Silicon Labs C8051 devices.
The SPI0 Clock Rate Register (SPI0CKR) as shown in SFR Definition 30.3 controls the master mode
serial clock frequency. This register is ignored when operating in slave mode. When the SPI is configured
as a master, the maximum dat a tran sfer rate (bit s/sec) is one-half the system clock frequency or 12.5 MHz,
whichever is slower. When the SPI is configured as a slave, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) for
full-duplex operation is 1/10 the system clock frequency, provided that the master issues SCK, NSS (in 4-
Rev. 0.3 423
Si102x/3x
wire slave mode), and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s system clock. If the master
issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data asynchronously, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec)
must be less than 1/10 the system clock frequency. In the special case where the master only wants to
transmit data to the sla ve and does not n eed to receive data from the slave (i.e. half-duplex operation), the
SPI slave can receive data at a maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) of 1/4 the system clock frequency.
This is provided that the master issues SCK, NSS, and the seri al input data synchronously with the slave’s
system clock.

software executing on th e M CU c ore. Th e se ria l inte rf ac e co n s ists of two SP I pe rip h er als : a d e dic ate d SPI
Master accessible from the MCU core and a dedicated SPI Slave residing inside the EZRadioPRO

31.1. Signal Descriptions
The four signals used by SPI1 (MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS) are described below.
31.1.1. Master Out, Slave In (MOSI)
The master-out, slave-in (MOSI) signal is an output from a master dev ice and an inpu t to slav e dev ices. It
is used to serially transfer dat a from the master to the slave. This signal is an outp ut to the MCU core. Data
is transferred most-significant bit first. MOSI is driven by the MSB of the shift register.
31.1.2. Master In, Slave Out (MISO)
The master-in, slave-out (MISO) signal is an output from a slave device and an input to the master device.
It is used to serially transfer data from the EZRadioPRO to the MCU core. This signal is an input when
SPI1 is operating as a master and an output when SPI1 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-
significant bit first. The MISO pin is placed in a high-impedance state when the SPI1 module is disabled.
31.1.3. Serial Clock (SCK)
The serial clock (SCK) signal is an output from the master device and an input to the EZRadioPRO. It is
used to synchronize the transfer of data between the master and slave on the MOSI and MISO lines. SPI1
generates this signal.
31.1.4. Slave Select (NSS)
To interface to the EZRadioPRO, SPI1 operates in three-wire mode. The NSS functionality built into the
SPI state machine is not used. Instead, the port pin P2.3 must be configured to control the chip se lect on
the EZRadioPRO peripheral under software control.
Rev. 0.3 433
Si102x/3x
31.2. SPI1 Master Mode Operation
A SPI master device initiates all data transfe r s on a SPI bu s. SPI1 is p laced in master m ode by se tting the
Master Enable flag (MSTEN, SPI1CN.6). Writing a byte of data to the SPI1 data register (SPI1DAT) when
in master mode writes to the transmit buffer. If the SPI shift register is empty, the byte in the transmit buffer
is moved to the shift registe r, and a da ta transfer begins. The SPI1 master immediately shifts out the data
serially on the MOSI line while providing the serial clock on SCK. The SPIF (SPI1CN.7) flag is set to logic
1 at the end of the transfer. If interrupts are enabled, an interrupt request is generated when the SPIF flag
is set. While the SPI1 master transfers data to a slave on the MOSI line, the addressed SPI slave device
simultaneously transfers the contents of its shift register to the SPI master on the MISO line in a full-duplex
operation. Therefore, the SPIF flag serves as both a transmit-complete and receive-data-ready flag. The
data byte received from the slave is transferred MSB-first into the master's shift register. When a byte is
fully shifted into the register, it is moved to the receive buffer where it can be read by the processor by
reading SPI1DAT.
31.3. SPI Slave Operation on the EZRadioPRO Peripheral Side
The EZRadioPRO peripheral presents a standard 4-wire SPI interface: SCK, MISO, MOSI, and NSS. The
SPI master can read dat a from th e device on th e MOSI ou tput pin. An SPI tra nsaction is a 16-bit seq uence
that consists of a Read-Write (R/W) select bit followed by a 7-bit address field (ADDR) and an 8-bit data
field (DATA), as demonstrated in Figure 31.2. The 7-bit address field is used to select one of the 128, 8-bit
control reg iste rs . T h e R /W s ele ct bit de te rm in es wh et he r the SPI tra nsaction is a read o r wr ite tr an sa ct ion .
If R/W = 1, it signifies a WRITE transaction, while R/W = 0 signifies a READ transaction. The contents
(ADDR or DATA) are latched into the transceiver every eight clock cycles. The timing parameters for the
SPI interface are show n in Table 31.1. The SCK rate is flexible with a maximum rate of 10 MHz.
31.4. SPI1 Interrupt Sources
When SPI1 interrupts are enabled, the following four flags will generate an interrupt when they are set to
logic 1:
All of the following bits must be cleared by software.
The SPI Interrupt Flag, SPIF (SPI1CN.7) is set to logic 1 at the end of each byte transfer. This flag can
occur in all SPI1 modes.
The Write Collision Flag, WCOL (SPI1CN.6) is set to logic 1 if a write to SPI1DAT is attempted when
the transmit buffer has not been emptied to the SPI shift register. When this occurs, the write to
SPI1DAT will be ignored, and the transmit buffer will not be written.This flag can occur in all SPI1
modes.
The Mode Fault Flag MODF (SPI1CN.5) is set to logic 1 when SPI1 is configured as a master, and for
multi-master mode and the NSS pin is pulled low. When a Mode Fault occurs, the MSTEN and SPIEN
bits in SPI1CN are set to logic 0 to disable SPI1 and allow another master device to access the bus.
The Receive Overrun Flag RXOVRN (SPI1CN.4) is set to logic 1 when configured as a slave, and a
transfer is completed and the receive buffer still holds an unread byte from a previous transfer. The new
byte is not transferred to the receive buffer, allowing the previously received data byte to be read. The
data byte which caused the overrun is lost.
Si102x/3x
434 Rev. 0.3
31.5. Serial Clock Phase and Polarity
Four combinations of serial clock phase and polarity can be sele cted using the clock control bits in the SPI
Configuration Register (SPI1CFG). The CKPHA bit (SPI1CFG.5) selects one of two clock phases (edge
used to latch the data). The CKPOL bit (SPI1CFG.4) selects between an active-high or active-low clock.
Both CKPOL and CKPHA must be set to zero in order to communicate with the EZRadioPRO peripheral.
The SPI1 Clock Rate Register (SPI1CKR), as shown in SFR Definition 31.3, controls the master mode
serial clock frequency. When the SPI is configured as a master, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec)
is one-half the system clock frequency or 12.5 MHz, whichever is slower.

31.6. Using SPI1 with the DMA
SPI1 is a DMA-enabled peripheral that can provide autonomous data transf ers when used with the DMA.
The SPI requires two DMA channels for a bidirectional data transfer and also supports unidirectional data
transfers using a single DMA channel.
There are no additional control bits in the SPI1 control and configuration SFRs. The configuration is the
same in DMA and non-DMA mode. While the SPIF flag and/or SPI interrupts are normally used for non-
DMA SPI transfers, a DMA transfer is managed using the DMA enable and DMA full transfer complete
flags.
More information on using the SPI1 peripheral with DMA can be found in the detailed example code for
EZRadioPRO.
31.7. Master Mode SPI1 DMA Transfers
The SPI interface does not normally have any handshaking or flow control. Therefore, the Master will
transmit all of the output data without waiting on the slave peripheral. The system designer must ensure
that the slave peripheral can accept all of the data at the transfer rate.
31.8. Master Mode Bidirectional Data Transfer
A bidirectional SPI Master Mode DMA transfer will transmit a specified number of bytes out on the MOSI
pin and receive the same number of bytes on the MISO pin. The MOSI data must be stored in XRAM
before initiating the DMA transfers. The DMA will also transfer all the MISO data to XRAM, overwriting any
data at the target location.
A bidirectional transfer requires two DMA channels. The first DMA channel transfers data from XRAM to
the SPI1DAT SFR and th e second DMA channe l transfers data from the SPI1DAT SFR to XRAM. The sec-
ond channel DMA interrupt indicates SPI transfer completion.
The NSS pin is an output, a nd th e hard ware does n ot manage the NSS pin automatically. Firmware should
assert the NSS pin before the SPI transfer and deassert it upon completion of the transfer.
To initiate a Master mode Bidirectional data transfer:
1. Configure the SPI1 SFRs normally for Master mode.
a. Enable Master mode by setting bit 6 in SPI1CFG.
b. Configure the clock polarity (CKPOL = 0) and clock phase (CKPHA = 0) as desired in SPI1CFG.
c. Configure SPI1CKR for the desired SPI clock rate.
d. Configure 3-wire master mode in SPI1CN.
e. Enable the SPI by setting bit 0 of SPI1CN .
2. Configure the first DMA channel for the XRAM-to-SPI1DATA transfer:
a. Disable the first DMA cha n ne l by clea rin g the co rr es po nd in g bit in DM A0E N.
b. Select the first DMA channel by writing to DMA0SEL.
c. Configure the selected DM A channel to use th e XRAM-to-SPI1DAT periphera l request by writing
0x03 to DMA0NCF.
d. Write 0 to DMA0NMD to disable wrapping.
e. Write the address of the first byte of master output (MOSI) data to DMA0NBAH:L.
f. Write the size of the SPI transfer in bytes to DMA0NSZH:L.
g. Clear the address offset SFRs CMA0A0H:L.
3. Configure the second DMA channel for the SPI1DAT-to-XRAM transfer:
a. Disable the second DMA channel by clearing the corresponding bit in DMA0EN.
Si102x/3x
436 Rev. 0.3
b. Select the second DMA channel by writing to DMA0SEL.
c. Configure the selected DM A channel to use the SPI1DAT -to-XRAM peri pheral request by wr iting
0x04 to DMA0NCF.
d. Enable DMA interrupts for the second channel by setting bit 7 of DMA0NCF.
e. Write 0 to DMA0NMD to disable wrapping.
f. Write the address for the first byte of master input (MISO) data to DMA0NBAH:L.
g. Write the size of the SPI transfer in bytes to DMA0NSZH:L.
h. Clear the address offset SFRs CMA0A0H:L.
i. Enable the interrupt on th e second channel by setting the corr esponding bit in DMA0INT.
j. Enable DMA interrupts by setting bit 5 of EIE2.
4. Clear the interrupt bits in DMA0INT for both channels.
5. Enable both channels by setting the corresponding bits in the DMA0EN SFR to initiate the SPI
transfer operation.
6. Wait on the DMA interrupt.
7. Clear the DMA enables in the DMA0EN SFR.
8. Clear the DMA interrupts in the DMA0INT SFR.
Rev. 0.3 437
Si102x/3x
31.9. Master Mode Unidirectional Data Transfer
A unidirectional SPI master mode DMA transfer will tran sfer a specified number of bytes out on the MOSI
pin. The MOSI da ta m ust be stored in XRAM before initiatin g the DMA transfers. The SPI1DAT-to-XRAM
peripheral request is not used. Since the DMA does not read the SPI1DAT SFR, the SPI will discard the
MISO data.
A unidirectional transfer only requires one DMA channel to transfer XRAM data to the SPI1DAT SFR. The
DMA interrupt will indicate the completion of the data transfer to the SPI1DAT SFR. When the interrupt
occurs, the DMA has written all of the data to the SPI1DAT SFR, but the SPI has not transmitted the last
byte. Firmware may poll on the SPIBSY bit to determine when the SPI has transmitted the last byte. Firm-
ware should not deassert the NSS pin until after the SPI has transmitted the last byte.
To initiate a master mode unidirectional data transfer:
1. Configure the SPI1 SFRs normally for Master mode.
a. Enable Master mode by setting bit 6 in SPI1CFG.
b. Configure the clock polarity (CKPOL = 0) and clock phase (CKPHA = 0) as desired in SPI1CFG.
c. Configure SPI1CKR for the desired SPI clock rate.
d. Configure 3-wire master mode in SPI1CN.
e. Enable the SPI by setting bit 0 of SPI1CN .
2. Configure the desired DMA channel for the XRAM-to-SPI1DAT transfer.
a. Disable the desired DMA channel by clearing the corresponding bit in DMA0EN.
b. Select the desired DMA channel by writing to DMA0SEL.
c. Configure the selected DM A channel to use the XRAM- to-SPI1DAT XRAM periphe ral request by
writing 0x03 to DMA0NCF.
d. Enable DMA interrupts for the desired channel by setting bit 7 of DMA0NCF.
e. Write 0 to DMA0NMD to disable wrapping.
f. Write the address for the first byte of master output (MOSI) data to DMA0NBAH:L.
g. Write the size of the SPI transfer in bytes to DMA0NSZH:L.
h. Clear the address offset SFRs CMA0A0H:L.
i. Enable the interrupt on the desired channel by setting the corresponding bit in DMA0INT.
j. Enable DMA interrupts by setting bit 5 of EIE2.
3. Clear the interrupt bit in DMA0INT for the desired channel.
4. Enable the desired channel by setting the corresponding bit in the DMA0EN SFR to initiate the SPI
transfer operation.
5. Wait on the DMA interrupt.
6. Clear the DMA enables in the DMA0EN SFR.
7. Clear the DMA interrupts in the DMA0INT SFR.
8. If desired, wait on the SPIBSY bit in SPI1CFG for the last byte transfer to complete.

Master Mode. A read of SPI1DAT returns the contents of the receive buffer.

32. EZRadioPRO® 240–960 MHz Transceiver
Si102x/3x devices include the EZRadioPRO family of ISM wireless tr ansceiver s with con tinuo us frequ ency
tuning over 240–960 MHz. The wide operating voltage range of 1.8–3.6 V and low current consumption
makes the EZRadioPRO an ideal solution for battery powered applications.
The EZRadioPRO transceiver operates as a time division duplexing (TDD) transceiver where the device
alternately transmits and receives data packets. The device uses a single-conversion mixer to downcon-
vert the 2-level FSK/GFSK/OOK modulated receive signal to a low IF frequency. Following a programma-
ble gain amplifier (PGA) the signal is converted to the digital domain by a high performance  ADC
allowing filtering, demodulation, slicing, and packet handling to be performed in the buil t-i n DSP increasin g
the receiver’s performance and flexibility versus analog based architectures. The demodulated signal is
then output to the system MCU through a programmable GPIO or via the standard SPI bus by reading the
64-byte RX FIFO.
A single high precision local oscillator (LO) is used for both transmit and receive modes since the transmit-
ter and receiver do not operate at the same time. The LO is gener ated by an integra ted VCO and  Frac-
tional-N PLL synthesizer. The synthesizer is designed to supp or t configu rable da ta rates, output frequency
and frequency deviation at any frequency between 240–960 MHz. The transmit FSK data is modulated
directly into the  data stream and can be shaped by a Gaussian low-pass filter to reduce unwanted
spectral content.
The PA output power of the Si1020/21/22/23/30/31/32/33 devices can be configured between –1 and
+20 dBm in 3 dB steps, while the PA output power of the Si1024/25/26/27/34/35/36/37 devices can be
configured between –8 and +13 dBm in 3 dB steps. The PA is single-ended to allow for easy antenna
matching and low BOM cost. The PA incorporates automatic ramp-up and rampdown control to reduce
unwanted spectral spreading. The devices with +20 dBm output power can also be used to compensate
for the reduced performance of a lower cost, lower performance antenna or antenna with size constraints
due to a small form-factor. Competing solutions require large and expensive external PAs to achieve com-
parable performance. The EZRadioPRO transceivers support frequency hopping, TX/RX switch control,
and antenna diversity switch control to extend the link range and improve performance.
The EZRadioPRO peripheral also controls three GPIO pins: GPIO_0, GPIO_1, and GPIO_2. See Applica-
tion Note “AN415: EZRadioPRO Progra mming Guide“ for details on initializing and using the EZRadioPRO
peripheral.

32.1. EZRadioPRO Operating Modes
The EZRadioPRO transceivers provide several operating modes which can be used to optimize the power
consumption for a given application. Depending upon the system communication protocol, an optimal
trade-off between the radio wake time and power consumption can be achieved.
Table 32.1 summarizes the operatin g mo des of the EZRadi oPRO transceivers. In gener al, any give n ope r-
ating mode may be classified as an active mode or a power saving mode. The table indicates which
block(s) are en abled (active) in each corr esponding mode. With the exception of the SHUTDOWN mode,
all can be dynamically selected by sending the appropriate commands over the SPI. An “X” in any cell
means that, in the given mode of operation, that block can be independently programmed to be either ON
or OFF, without noticeably impacting the current consumption. The SPI circuit block includes the SPI inter-
face hardware and the device register space. The 32 kHz OSC block includes the 32.768 kHz RC oscilla-
tor or 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator and wake-up timer. AUX (Auxiliary Blocks) includes the temperature
sensor, general purpose ADC, and low-battery detector.

32.1.1. Operating Mode Control
There are four primary states in the EZRadioPRO transceiver radio state machine: SHUTDOWN, IDLE,
TX, and RX (see Figure 32.1). The SHUTDOWN st ate completely shu ts down the radio to minimize curre nt
consumption. There are five different configurations/options for the IDLE state which can be selected to
optimize the chip for the application. "Register 07h. Operating Mode and Function Control 1" controls
which operating mode/state is selected with the ex ception of SHUTDOW N which is controlled by the SDN
pin. The TX and RX state may be reached automatically from any of the IDLE states by setting the
txon/rxon bits in "Register 07h. Operating Mode and Function Control 1". Table 32.2 shows each of the
operating modes with the time required to reach either RX or TX mode as well as the current consumption
of each mode.
The transceivers include a low-power digital regulated supply (LPLDO) which is internally connected in
parallel to the outp ut of the main d igit al re gulator (and is available exte rnally at the VR_DIG p in). T his com-
mon digit al su pply volt a ge is connecte d to all digi t al circuit blocks inclu ding the digit al mo dem, cr yst al oscil-
lator, SPI, and register space. The LPLDO has extremely low quiescent current consumption but limited
current supply capability; it is used only in the IDLE-STANDBY and IDLE-SLEEP modes. The main digital
regulator is automatically enabled in all other modes.

446 Rev. 0.3
32.1.1.1. SHUTDOWN State
The SHUTDOWN state is the lowest current consumption state of the device with nominally less than
15 nA of current consumption. The shutdown state may be entered by driving the SDN pin high. The SDN
pin should be he ld low in all states except the SHUTDOWN state. In the SHUT DOWN state, the contents
of the registers are lost and there is no SPI access.
When the chip is connected to the power supply, a POR will be initiated after the falling edge of SDN. After
a POR, the device will be in READY mode with the buffers enabled.
32.1.1.1.1. IDLE State
There are five different modes in the IDLE state which may be selected by "Register 07h. Operating Mode
and Function Control 1". All modes have a tradeoff between current consumption and response time to
TX/RX mode. This tradeoff is shown in Table 32.2. After the POR event, SWRESET, or exiting from the
SHUTDOWN state the chip will default to the IDLE-READY mode. After a POR event the interrupt registers
must be read to properly enter the SLEEP, SENSOR, or STANDBY mode and to control the 32 kHz clock
correctly.
32.1.1.1.2. STA NDBY Mode
STANDBY mode has the lowest current consumption of the five IDLE states with only the LPL DO enabled
to maintain the register values. In this mode the registers can be accessed in both read and write mode.
The STANDBY mode can be entered by writing 0h to "R egister 07 h. Oper ating Mo de a nd F unction Control
1". If an interrupt has occurred (i.e., the nIRQ pin = 0) the interrupt registers must be read to achieve the
minimum current consump tion. Additionally, the ADC should not be selected as an input to the GPIO in this
mode as it will cause excess current consumption.
32.1.1.1.3. SLEEP Mode
In SLEEP mode the LPLDO is enabled along with the Wake-Up-Timer, which can be used to accurately
wake-up the radio at specified intervals. See “Wake-Up Timer and 32 kHz Clock Source” on page 479 for
more information on the Wake-Up-Timer. SLEEP mode is entered by setting enwt = 1 (40h) in "Register
07h. Operating Mode and Function Control 1". If an interrupt has occurred (i.e., the nIRQ pin = 0) the inter-
rupt registers must be read to achieve the minimum current consumption. Also, the ADC should not be
selected as an input to the GPIO in this mode as it will cause excess current consumption.
32.1.1.1.4. SENSOR Mode
In SENSOR mode either the Low Battery Detector, Temperature Sensor, or both may be enabled in addi-
tion to the LPLDO and Wake-Up-Timer. The Low Battery Detector can be enabled by setting enlbd = 1 in
"Register 07h. Operating Mode and Fun ction Control 1". See “Temperature Sensor” on page 476 and “Low
Battery Detector” on page 478 for more information on these features. If an interrupt has occurred (i.e.,
the nIRQ pin = 0) the interrupt registers must be read to achieve the minimum current consumption.
32.1.1.1.5. READY Mode
READY Mode is designed to give a fast transition time to TX mode with reasonable current consumption.
In this mode the Crystal oscillator remains enabled reducing the time required to switch to TX or RX mode
by eliminating the cryst al st art-up time. READY mode is e ntered by setting xton = 1 in "Reg ister 07h. Oper-
ating Mode and Function Control 1". To achieve the lowest current consumption state the crystal oscillator
buffer should be disabled in “Register 62h. Crystal Oscillator Control and Test.” To exit READY mode,
bufovr (bit 1) of this register must be set back to 0.
32.1.1.1.6. TUNE Mode
In TUNE mode the PLL remains enabled in addition to the other blocks enabled in the IDLE modes. This
will give the fastest response to TX mode as the PLL will remain locked but it results in the highest current
consumption. This mode of operation is designed for frequency hopping spread spectrum systems
(FHSS). TUNE mode is entered by setting pllon = 1 in "Register 07h. Operating Mode and Function Con-
trol 1". It is not necessary to set xton to 1 for this mode, the internal state machine automatically enables
the crystal oscillator.
Rev. 0.3 447
Si102x/3x
32.1.1.2. TX State
The TX state may be entered from any of the IDLE modes when the txon bit is set to 1 in "Register 07h.
Operating Mode and Function Con trol 1". A bu ilt-in seque ncer takes care of all the actions re quired to tr an-
sition between states from enabling the crystal oscillator to ramping up the PA. The following sequenc e of
events will occur automatically when going from STANDBY mode to TX mode by setting the txon bit.
1. Enable the ma in digital LDO and the Ana lo g LD Os.
2. Start up crystal oscillator and wait until ready (controlled by an internal timer).
3. Enable PLL.
4. Calibrate VCO (this action is skipped when the skipvco bit is 1, default value is 0).
5. Wait until PLL settles to required transmit frequency (controlled by an internal timer).
6. Activate power amplifier and wait until power ramping is completed (controlled by an internal timer).
7. Transmit packet.
Steps in this sequence m ay be elimina ted depe nding on which IDLE mod e the chip is co nfigure d to prior to
setting the txon bit. By default, the VCO and PLL are calibrated every time the PLL is enabled.
32.1.1.3. RX State
The RX state may be entered from any of the IDLE modes when the rxon bit is set to 1 in "Register 07h.
Operating Mode and Function Con trol 1". A bu ilt-in seque ncer takes care of all the actions re quired to tr an-
sition from one of the IDLE modes to the RX state. The following sequence of events will occur automati-
cally to get the chip into RX mode when going from STANDBY mode to RX mode by setting the rxon bit:
1. Enable the ma in digital LDO and the Ana lo g LD Os.
2. Start up crystal oscillator and wait until ready (controlled by an internal timer).
3. Enable PLL.
4. Calibrate VCO (this action is skipped when the skipvco bit is 1, default value is 0).
5. Wait until PLL settles to required receive frequency (controlled by an internal timer).
6. Enable receive circuits: LNA, mixers, and ADC.
7. Enable receive mode in the digital modem.
Depending on the configuration of the radio all or some of the following functions will be performed auto-
matically by the digital modem: AGC, AFC (optional), update status registers, bit synchronization, packet
handling (optional) including sync word, header check, and CRC.
32.1.1.4. Device Status
The operational status of the EZRadioPRO peripheral can be read from "Register 02h. Device Status".
32.2. Interrupts
The EZRadioPRO peripheral is capable of generating an interrupt signal (nIRQ) when certain events
occur. The nIRQ pin is driven low to indicate a pending interrupt request. The EZRadioPRO interrupt
does not have an internal interrupt vector. To use the interrupt, the nIRQ pin must be looped back
to an external interrupt input. This interrupt signal will be generated when any one (or more) of the inter-
rupt events (corresponding to the Interrupt Status bits) shown below occur. The nIRQ pin will remain low
until the Interrupt Status Register(s) (Registers 03h–04h) containing the active Interrupt Status bit is read.
The nIRQ output signal will then be reset until the next change in status is detected. The interrupts must be

enabled by the corresponding enable bit in the Interrupt Enable Registers (Registers 05h–06h). All
enabled interrupt bits will be cleared when the corresponding interrupt status register is read. If the inter-
rupt is not enabled when the event occurs it will not trigger the nIRQ pin, but the status may still be read at
anytime in the Interrupt Status registers.
Important Note: The nIRQ line should not be monitored for POR after SDN or initial power up. The POR
signal is available by default on GPIO0 and GPIO1 and should be monitored as an alternative to nIRQ for
POR. As an alternative, software may wait 18 ms after SDN rising before polling the interrupt status regis-
ters in 03h and 04h to check for POR and chip ready (XTAL start-up/ready). This process may take up to
26 ms. After the initial interrupt is cleared, the operation of the nIRQ pin will be normal.
See “AN440: EZRadioPRO Detailed Register Descriptions” for a complete list of interrupts.
32.3. System Timing
The system timing for TX an d RX mod es is shown in Figures 32.2 and 32.3. The figu res d emo nstrate tr an -
sitioning from STANDBY mode to TX or RX mode through the built-in sequencer of required steps. The
user only needs to program the desired mode, and the internal sequencer will properly transition the part
from its current mode.
The VCO will automatically calibrate at every frequency change or power up. The PLL T0 time is to allow
for bias settling of the VCO. The PLL TS time is for the settling time of the PLL, which has a default settin g
of 100 µs. The total time for PLL T0, PLL CAL, and PLL TS under all conditions is 200 µs. Under certain
applications, the PLL T0 time and the PLL CAL may be skipped for faster turn-around time. Contact appli-
cations support if faster turnaround time is desired.

32.3.1. Frequency Control
For calculating the necessary frequency register settings it is recommended that customers use Silicon
Labs’ Wireless Design Suite (WDS) or the EZRadioPRO Register Calculator worksheet (in Microsoft
Excel) available on the product website. These methods offer a simple method to quickly determine the
correct settings based on the application requirements. The following information can be used to calcu-
lated these values manually.
32.3.2. Frequency Programming
In order to receive or transmit an RF signal, the desired channel frequency, fcarrier, must be programmed
into the transceiver. Note that this frequency is the center frequency of the desired channel and not an LO
frequency. The carrier frequency is gen erated by a Fractional-N Synthesizer, using 10 MHz both as the ref-
erence frequency and the clock of the (3rd order) ∆Σ modulator. This modulator uses modulo 64000 accu-
mulators. This design was made to obtain the desired frequency resolution of the synthesizer. The overall
division ratio of the feedback loo p consist of an inte ger part (N) and a fractional p art ( F).In a gen eric sense,
the output frequency of the synthesizer is as follows:
The fractional part (F) is determined by three different values, Carrier Frequency (fc[15:0]), Fre quency Off-
set (fo[8:0]), and Frequency Deviation (fd[7:0]). Due to the fine resolution and high loop bandwidth of the
synthesizer, FSK modulation is applied inside the loop and is done by varying F according to the incoming
data; this is discussed further in “Frequency Deviation” on page 452. Also, a fixed offset can be adde d to
fine-tune the carrier frequency and counteract crystal tolerance errors. For simplicity assume that only the
fc[15:0] register will determine the fractional component. The equation for selection of the carrier frequency
is shown below:

The integer part (N) is determined by fb[4:0]. Additionally, the output frequency can be halved by connect-
ing a ÷2 divider to the output. This divider is not inside the loop and is controlled by the hbsel bit in "Regis-
ter 75h. Frequency Band Select". This effectively pa rtitions the entire 240–960 MHz frequency range into
two separate bands: High Band (HB) for hbsel = 1, and Low Band (LB) for hbsel = 0. The valid range of
fb[4:0] is from 0 to 23. If a higher value is written into the register , it will default to a value of 23. The integer
part has a fixed offset of 24 added to it as shown in the formula above. Table 32.3 demonstrates the selec-
tion of fb[4:0] for the corresponding frequency band.
After selection of the fb (N) the fractional component may be solved with the following equation:
fb and fc are the actual numbers stored in the corresponding registers.

The chip will automatically shift the frequency of the Synthesizer down by 937.5 kHz (30 MHz ÷ 32) to
achieve the correct Intermediate Frequency (IF) when RX mode is entered. Low-side injection is used in
the RX Mixing architecture; therefore, no frequency reprogramming is required when using the same TX
frequency and switching between RX/TX modes.
32.3.3. Easy Frequency Programming for FHSS
While Registers 73h–77h ma y be used to pr ogram th e carrier frequency of the transceiver, it is often easier
to think in terms of “channels” or “channel numbers” rather than an absolute frequency value in Hz. Also,
there may be some timing-critical applications (such as for Frequency Hopping Systems) in which it is
desirable to change frequency by prog ramming a single register. Once the channel step size is set, the fre-
quency may be changed b y a single registe r corresp onding to the channel nu mber. A nominal freque ncy is
first set using Registers 73h–77h, as described above. Registers 79h and 7Ah are then use d to set a chan-
nel step size and channel number, relative to the nominal setting. The Frequency Hopping Step Size
(fhs[7:0]) is set in increments of 10 kHz with a maximum channel step size of 2.56 MHz. The Frequency
Hopping Channel Select Register then selects channels based on multiples of the step size.
For example: if the nominal frequency is set to 900 MHz using Registers 73h–77h and the channel step
size is set to 1 MHz using "Register 7Ah. Frequency Hopping Step Size". For example, if the "Register
79h. Frequency Hopping Channel Select" is set to 5d, the resulting carrier frequency would be 905 MHz.
Once the nominal frequen cy and channel step size ar e pr ogra mmed in th e reg isters, it is only ne cessar y to
program the fhch[7:0] register in order to change the fre quency.

32.3.4. Automatic State Transition for Frequency Change
If registers 79h or 7Ah are changed in either TX or RX mode, the state machine will automatically transition
the chip back to TUNE, change the frequency, and automatically go back to either TX or RX. This feature
is useful to reduce the number of SPI commands required in a Frequency Hopping System. This in turn
reduces microcontroller activity, reducing current consumption. The exception to this is during TX FIFO
mode. If a frequency change is initiated during a TX packet, then the part will complete the current TX
packet and will only change the frequency for subsequent pa ckets.
32.3.5. Frequency Deviation
The peak frequency deviation is configurable from ±0.625 to ±320 kHz. The Frequency Deviation (f) is
controlled by the Frequency Deviation Register (fd), address 71 and 72h, and is independent of the carrier
frequency setting. When enabled, regardless of the setting of the hbsel bit (high band or low band), the
resolution of the frequency deviation will remain in increments of 625 Hz. When using frequency modula-
tion the carrier frequency will deviate from the nominal center channel carrier frequency by ±f:
Figure 32.4. Frequency Deviation
The previous equation should be used to calculate the desired frequency deviation. If desired, frequency
modulation may also be d isabled in order to obt ain an unmod ulated carrier sign al at the channel ce nter fre -
quency; see “Modulation Type” on page 455 for further details.

32.3.6. Frequency Offset Adjustment
When the AFC is disabled the frequency offset can be adjusted manually by fo[9:0] in registers 73h and
74h. It is not possible to have both AFC and offset as internally they share the same register. The fre-
quency offset adjustment and the AFC both are implemented by shifting the Synthesizer Local Oscillator
frequency. This registe r is a signed re gister so in order to get a negative offset it is necessary to take the
twos complement of the positive offset number. The offset can be calculated by the following:
The adjustment range in high band is ±160 kHz and in low band it is ±80 kHz. Fo r ex amp le to com put e an
offset of +50 kHz in high band mode fo[9:0] should be set to 0A0h. For an offset of –50 kHz in high band
mode the fo[9:0] register should be set to 360h.
32.3.7. Automatic Frequency Control (AFC)
All AFC settings can be easily obtained from the settings calculator. This is the recommended method to
program all AFC settings. This section is intended to describe the operation of the AFC in more detail to
help understand the trade-offs of using AFC.The receiver supports automatic frequency control (AFC) to
compensate for frequency differences between the transmitter and receiver reference frequencies. These
differences can be caused by the absolute accuracy and temperature dependencies of the reference crys-
tals. Du e to frequency of fse t compensation in th e modem, the re ceiver is tolerant to frequency o f fset s up to
0.25 times the IF bandwidth when the AFC is disabled. When the AFC is enabled, the received signal will
be centered in the pass-band of the IF filter, providing optimal sensitivity and selectivity over a wider range
of frequency offsets up to 0.35 times the IF bandwidth. The trade-off of receiver sensitivity (at 1% PER)
versus carrier offset and the impact of AFC are illustrated in Figure 32.5.

When AFC is enabled, the preamble length needs to be long enough to settle the AFC. In general, one
byte of preamble is sufficient to settle the AFC. Disabling the AFC allows the preamble to be shortened
from 40 bits to 32 bits. Note that with the AFC disabled, the preamble length must still be long enough to
settle the receiver and to detect the preamble (see “Preamble Length” on page 470). The AFC corrects the
detected frequency offset by changing the frequency of the Fractional-N PLL. When the preamble is
detected, the AFC will freeze for the remainder of the packet. In multi-packet mode the AFC is reset at the
end of every packet and will re-acquire the frequency offset for the next packet. The AFC loop includes a
bandwidth limiting mechanism improving the rejection of out of band signals. When the AFC loop is
enabled, it s pull-in-r ange is determined b y the band wid th limiter value (AFCLimiter) which is located in reg-
ister 2Ah.
AFC_pull_in_range = ±AFCLimiter[7:0] x (hbsel+1) x 625 Hz
The AFC Limiter register is an unsigned register an d it s value can be obt ained from the EZRadioPRO Reg-
ister Calculator spreadsheet.
The amount of error correction feedback to the Fractional-N PLL before the preamble is detected is con-
trolled from afcgearh[2:0]. The default value 000 relates to a feedback of 100% from the measured fre-
quency error and is advised for most applications. Every bit added will half the feedback but will require a
longer preamble to settle.
The AFC operates as follows. The frequency err or of th e in coming signal is measured over a period of two
bit times, after which it corrects the local oscillator via the Fractional-N PLL. After this correction, some time
is allowed to settle the Fractional -N PLL to the new frequen cy before the ne xt frequency e rror is meas ured.
The duration of the AFC cycle before the preamble is detected can be programmed with shwait[2:0]. It is
advised to use the default value 001, which sets the AFC cycle to 4 bit times (2 for measurement and 2 for
settling). If shwait[2:0] is programmed to 3'b000, there is no AFC correction output. It is advised to use the
default value 001, which sets the AFC cycle to 4 bit times (2 for measurement and 2 for settling).
The AFC co rrection value may be re ad from r egister 2Bh. The valu e read ca n be converte d to kHz with th e
following formula:
AFC Correction = 156.25Hz x (hbsel +1) x afc_corr[7: 0]

32.3.8. TX Data Rate Generator
The data rate is configurable between 0.1 23–256 kbps. For dat a rate s below 30 kbp s the ”txd trt scale” bit in
register 70h should be set to 1. When higher data rates are used this bit should be set to 0.
The TX date rate is determined by the following formula in bps:
For data rates higher than 100 kbps, Register 58h should be changed from its default of 80h to C0h. Non-
optimal modulation and increased eye closure will result if this setting is not made for data rates higher
than 100 kbps. The txdr register is only applicable to TX mode and does not need to be programmed for
RX mode. The RX bandwid th which is partly determined from the data rate is programmed separately.
32.4. Modulation Options
32.4.1. Modulation Type
The EZRadioPRO transceivers support three different modulation options: Gaussian Frequency Shift Key-
ing (GFSK), Frequency Shift Keying (FSK), and On-Off Keying (OOK). GFSK is the recommended modu-
lation type as it provides the best performance and cleanest modulation spectrum. Figure 32.6
demonstrates the difference between FSK and GFSK for a Data Rate of 64 kbps. The time domain plots
demonstrate the effects of the Gaussian filtering. The frequency domain plots demonstrate the spectral
benefit of GFSK over FSK. The type of modulation is selected with the modtyp[1:0] bits in "Register 71h.

32.4.2. Modulation Data Source
The transceiver may be configured to obtain its modulation data from one of three different sources: FIFO
mode, Direct Mode, and from a PN9 mode. In Direct Mode, the TX modulation data may be obtained from
several dif ferent input pins. These options are set th rough the dtmod[1:0] field in "Register 71h. Modulation
Mode Control 2".
32.4.2.1. FIFO Mode
In FIFO mode, the transmit and receive data is stored in integrated FIFO register memory. The FIFOs are
accessed via "Register 7Fh. FIFO Access," and are most eff iciently acc essed with burs t read/w rite opera-
tion.
In TX mode, the data bytes stored in FIFO memory are "packaged" together with other fields and bytes of
information to construct the final transmit packet structure. These other potential fields include the Pream-
ble, Sync word, Header, CRC checksum, etc. The configuration of the packet structure in TX mode is

determined b y the Automatic Packet H andler (if enabled), in conjunction with a variety of Packet Handler
Registers (see Table 32.4 on page 469). If the Automatic Packet Handler is disabled, the entire desired
packet structure should be loaded into FIFO memory; no other fields (such as Preamble or Sync word are
automatically added to the bytes stored in FIFO memory). For further information on the configuration of
the FIFOs for a specific application or packet size, see “Data Handling and Packet Handler” on page 465.
In RX mode, only the bytes of the received packet structure that are considered to be "data bytes" are
stored in FIFO memory. Which bytes of the received packet are considered "data bytes" is determined by
the Automatic Packet Handler (if enabled), in conjunction with the Packet Handler Registers (see
Table 32.4 on page 469). If the Automatic Packet Handler is disabled, all bytes following the Sync word are
considered data bytes and are stored in FIFO memory. Thus, even if Automatic Packet Handling operation
is not desired, the preamble detection threshold and Sync word still need to be programmed so that the RX
Modem knows when to start filling data into the FIFO. When the FIFO is being used in RX mode, all of the
received data may still be observed directly (in real-time) by properly programming a GPIO pin as the
RXDATA output pin; this can be quite useful during application development.
When in FIFO mode, the chip will automatically exit the TX or RX State when either the ipksent or ipkvalid
interrupt occurs. The chip will return to the IDLE mode state programmed in "Register 07h. Operating
Mode and Function Control 1". For example, the chip may be placed into TX mode by setting the txon bit,
but with the pllon bit additionally set. The chip will transmit all of the contents of the FIFO and the ipksent
interrupt will occur. When this interrupt event occurs, the chip will clear the txon bit and return to TUNE
mode, as indicated by the set state of the pllon bit. If no other bits are additionally set in register 07h
(besides txon initially), then the chip will return to the STANDBY state.
In RX mode, the rxon bit will be cleared if ipkvalid occ urs and the rx mp k bit (RX Multi-Pac ket bit, SPI Reg-
ister 08h bit [4]) is not set. When the rxmpk bit is set, the part will not exit the RX state after successfully
receiving a packet, but will remain in RX mode. The microcontroller will need to decide on the appropriate
subsequent action, depending upon information such as an interrupt generated by CRC, packet valid, or
preamble detect.
32.4.2.2. Direct Mode
For legacy systems that perform packet handling within an MCU or other baseband chip, it may not be
desirable to use the FIFO. For this scenar io, a Direct Mode is provided which bypasses the FIFOs entirely.
In TX direct mode, the TX modulation data is applied to an input pin of the chip and processed in "real
time" (i.e., not stored in a register for transmission at a later time). A variety of pins may be configured for
use as the TX Data input function.
Furthermore, an additional pin may be required for a TX Clock output function if GFSK modulation is
desired (only the TX Data input pin is required for FSK). Two options for the source of the TX Data are
available in the dtmod[1:0] field, and various configurations for the source of the TX Data Clock may be
selected through the trclk[1:0] field.
The eninv bit in SPI Register 71h will invert the TX Data; thi s is most likely useful for diagnostic and testing
purposes.
In RX direct mode, the RX Data and RX Clock can be programmed for direct (real-time) output to GPIO
pins. The microc ontroller may then process the RX dat a without using the FIFO or packet ha ndler functions

of the RFIC. In RX direct mode, the chip must still acquire bit timing during the Preamble, and thus the pre-
amble detection threshold (SPI Register 35h) must still be programmed. Once the preamble is detected,
certain bit timing functions within the RX Modem change their operation for optimized performance over
the remainder of the packet. It is not required that a Sync word be present in the packet in RX Direct mode;
however , if the Sync word is absent then the skipsyn bit in SPI Register 33h must be set, or else the bit tim-
ing and tracking function within the RX Modem will not be configured for optimum performance.
32.4.2.3. Direct Synchronous Mode
In TX direct mode, the chip may be configured for synchronous or asynchronous modes of modulation. In
direct synchronous mode, the RFIC is configured to provide a TX Clock signal as an output to the external
device that is providing the TX Data stream. This TX Clock signal is a square wave with a frequency equal
to the programmed data rate. The external modulation source (e.g., MCU) must accept this TX Clock sig-
nal as an input and respond by providing one bit of TX Data back to the RFIC, synchronous w ith on e ed ge
of the TX Clock signal. In this fashion, the rate of the TX Data input stream from the external source is con-
trolled by the programmed data rate of the RFIC; no TX Data bits are made available at the input of the
RFIC until requested by another cycle of the TX Clock signal. The TX Data bits supplied by the external
source are transmitted directly in real-time (i.e., not stored internally for later transmission).
All modulation types (FSK/GFSK/OOK) are valid in TX direct synchron ous mode. As will be discussed in
the next section, there are limits on modulation types in TX direct asynchronous mode.
32.4.2.4. Direct Asynchronous Mode
In TX direct asynchronous mode, the RFIC no longer controls the data rate of the TX Data input stream.
Instead, the data rate is controlled only by the external TX Data source; the RFIC simply accepts the data
applied to its TX Data input pin, at whatever rate it is supplied. This means that there is no longer a need
for a TX Clock output signal from the RFIC, as there is no synchronous "handshaking" between the RFIC
and the external data source. The TX Data bits supplied by the external source are transmitted directly in
real-time (i.e., not stored internally for later transmission).
It is not necessary to program the data rate parameter when operating in TX direct asynchronous mode.
The chip still internally samples the incoming TX Data stream to determine when edge transitions occur;
however, rather than sampling the data at a pre-programmed data rate, the chip now internally samples
the incoming TX Data stream at its maximum possible oversampling rate. This allows the chip to accu-
rately determine the timing of the bit edge transitions without prior knowledge of the data rate. (Of course,
it is still necessary to program the desired peak frequency deviation.)
Only FSK and OOK modulation types are valid in TX Direct Asynchronous Mode; GFSK modulation is not
available in asynchronous mode. This is because the RFIC does not have knowledge of the supplied data
rate, and thus cannot determine the appropriate Gaussian lowpass filter function to apply to the incoming
data.

32.4.2.5. Direct Mode using SPI or nIRQ Pins
It is possible to use th e EZRadioPRO ser ial interface signals and nIRQ as the modu lation clock and d ata.
The MISO signal can be configured to be the data clock by programming trclk = 10. If the NSS signal is
LOW then the function of the MISO signal will be SPI data output. If the NSS signal is high and trclk[1:0] is
10 then during RX and TX modes the data clock will be available on the MISO signal. If trclk[1:0] is set to
11 and no interrupts are enabled in registers 05 or 06h, then the nIRQ pin can also be used as the TX/RX
data clock.
Note: The MISO and NSS signals are internal connections. The nIRQ signal is accessed through an
external package pin.
The MOSI signal can be configured to be the data source in both RX and TX modes if dtmod[1:0] = 01. In
a similar fashion, if NSS is LOW the MOSI signal will function as SPI data-in. If NSS is HIGH then in TX

If the MISO pin is not used for data clock then it may be programmed to be the interrup t fu nction (nIRQ) by
programming Register 0Eh bit 3.
32.4.3. PN9 Mode
In this mode the TX d ata is generated internally using a pseudorandom (PN9 sequence) bit generator. Th e
primary purpose of this mode is for use as a test mode to observe the modulated spectrum without having
to provide data.
32.5. Internal Functional Blocks
This section provides an overview some of the key blocks of the internal radio architecture.
32.5.1. RX LNA
Depending on the p art, the input fr equency range for the LNA is between 240–960 MHz. The LNA provides
gain with a noise figure low enough to suppress the noise of the following st ages. The LNA has one step of
gain control which is controlled by the analog gain control ( AGC) algo rithm. The AGC algo rithm adju st s the
gain of the LNA and PGA so the receiver can handle signal levels from sensitivity to +5 dBm with optimal
performance.
In the Si1024/25/26/27/34/35/36/37, the TX and RX may be tied directly. See the TX/RX direct-tie refer-
ence design available on www.silabs.com. When the direct tie is used the lna_sw bit in Register 6Dh, TX
power must be set.
32.5.2. RX I-Q Mixer
The output of the LNA is fed internally to the input of the receive mixer. Th e receive m ixer is imple mented
as an I-Q mixer that provides both I and Q channel outputs to the programmable gain amplifier. The mixer
consists of two double-balanced mixers whose RF inputs are driven in parallel, local oscillator (LO) inputs
are driven in quadrature, and separate I and Q Intermediate Frequency (IF) outputs drive the programma-
ble gain amplifier. The receive LO signal is supplied by an integrat ed VCO and PLL synthesize r opera ting
between 240–960 MHz. The necessary quadrature LO signals are derived from the divider at the VCO out-
put.
32.5.3. Programmable Gain Amplifier
The programmable gain amplifier (PGA) provides the necessary gain to boost the signal level into the
dynamic range of the ADC. The PGA must also have enough gain switching to allow for large input signals
to ensure a linear RSSI range up to –20 dBm. The PGA has steps of 3 dB which are controlled by the AGC
algorithm in the digital modem.

32.5.4. ADC
The amplified IQ IF signals are digitized using an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), which allows for low
current consumption and high dynamic range. The bandpass response of the ADC provides exceptional
rejection of out of ban d bloc k er s.
32.5.5. Digital Modem
Using high-performan ce ADCs allows channel filtering, imag e rejection, and demodulation to be performed
in the digital domain, resulting in reduced area while increasing flexibility. The digital modem performs the
following functions:
Channel selection filter
TX modulation
RX demodulation
AGC
Preamble detector
Invalid preamble detector
Radio signal strength indicator (RSSI)
Automatic frequency compensation (AFC)
Packet handling including EZMAC® features
Cyclic redundancy check (CRC)
The digital channel filter and demodulator are optimized for ultra low power consumption and are highly
configurable. Supported modulation types are GFSK, FSK, and OOK. The channel filter can be configured
to support bandwidths ranging from 620 kHz down to 2.6 kHz. A large variety of data rates are supported
ranging from 0.123 up to 256 kbps. The AGC algorithm is implemented digitally using an advanced contro l
loop optimized for fast response time.
The configurable preamble detector is used to improve the reliability of the sync-word detection. The sync-
word detector is only enabled when a valid preamble is detected, significantly reducing the probability of
false detection.
The received signal strength indicator (RSSI) provides a measure of the signal strength received on the
tuned channel. The resolution of the RSSI is 0.5 dB. This high resolution RSSI enables accurate channel
power measurements for clear channel assessment (CCA), carrier sense (CS), and listen before t alk (LBT)
functionality.
Frequency mistuning caused by crystal inaccuracies can be compensated by enabling the digital auto-
matic frequency control (AFC) in receive mode.
A comprehensive programmable packet handler including key features of Silicon Labs’ EZMAC is inte-
grated to create a variety of communication topologies ranging from peer-to-peer networks to mesh net-
works. The extensive programmability of the packet header allows for advanced packet filtering which in
turn enables a mix of broadcast, group, and point-to-point communication.
A wireless communication channel can be corrupted by noise and interference, and it is therefore impor-
tant to know if the received data is free of errors. A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is used to detect the
presence of erron eous bits in each packet. A CRC is computed an d append ed at the end o f each tran sm it-
ted packet and verified by the receiver to confirm that no errors have occurred. The packet handler and
CRC can significantly reduce the load on the microcontroller reducing the overall current consumption.
The digital modem includes the TX modulator which converts the TX data bits into the corresponding
stream of digital modulation values to be summed with the fractional input to the sigma-delta modulator.
This modulation approach result s in highly accu rate resolution o f the frequency deviation. A Gaussian filter
is implemented to support GFSK, considerably reducing the energy in the adjacent channels. The default
bandwidth-time product (BT) is 0.5 for all programmed data rates, but it may be adjusted to other values.

32.5.6. Synthesizer
An integrated Sigma Delta (Σ∆) Fractional-N PLL synthesizer capable of operating from 240–960 MHz is
provided on-chip. Using a Σ∆ synthesizer has many advantages; it provides flexibility in choosing data
rate, deviation, channel frequency, and channel spacing. The transmit modulation is applied directly to the
loop in the digital domain through the fractional divider which results in very precise accuracy and control
over the transmit deviation.
Depending on the part, the PLL and - modulator scheme is designed to support any desired frequency
and channel spa cing in th e range from 240–96 0 MHz with a frequency resolution of 156.25 Hz (Low band)
or 312.5 Hz (High band). The transmit data rate can be programmed between 0.123–256 kbps, and the
frequency deviation can be programmed between ±1–320 kHz. These parameters may be adjusted via
registers as shown in “Frequency Control” on page 449.
Figure 32.10. PLL Synthesizer Block Diagram
The reference frequency to th e PLL is 10 MHz. The PLL utilizes a differential L-C VCO, with integrated on-
chip inductors. The output of the VCO is followed by a configurable divider which will divide down the sig-
nal to the desired output frequency band. The modulus of the variable divide-by-N divider stage is con-
trolled dynamically by the o utput from the - modulator. The tuning resolution is sufficient to tune to the
commanded frequency with a maximum accuracy of 312.5 Hz anywhere in the range between 240–
960 MHz.
32.5.6.1. VCO
The output of the VCO is automatically divided down to the correct output frequency depending on the
hbsel and fb[4:0] fields in "Register 75h. Frequency Band Select". In receive mode, the LO frequency is
automatically shifted downwards by the IF frequency of 937.5 kHz, allowing transmit and receive operation
on the same frequency. The VCO integrates the resonator inductor and tuning varactor, so no external
VCO components are required.
The VCO uses a capacitance bank to cover the wide frequency range specified. The capacitance bank will
automatica lly be calibrated eve ry time the synt hesizer is enabled. In certain fast hopping applications this
might not be desirable so the VCO calibration may be skipped by settin g the app ro pr iat e re gister.

32.5.7. Power Amplifier
The Si1020/21/22/23/30/31/32/33 devices have an internal integrated power amplifier (PA) capable of
transmitting at output levels between +1 and +20 dBm. The Si1024/25/26/27/34/35/36/37 devices have a
PA which is capable of transmitting output levels between –8 to +13 dBm. The PA design is single-ended
and is implemen ted a s a two stage class CE amplifier with a high ef ficie ncy when tra nsmitting at maximum
power. The PA efficiency can only be optimized at one power level. Changing the output power by adjust-
ing txpow[2:0] will scale both the output power and current but the efficiency will not remain constant. The
PA output is ramped up and down to prevent unwanted spectral splatter.
With the Si1024/25/26/27/34/35/36/37 devices, the TX and RX may be tied directly. See the TX/RX direct-
tie reference design available on the Silicon Labs website for more details. When the direct tie is used, the
lna_sw bit in Register 6Dh, TX Power must be set to 1.
32.5.7.1. Output Power Selection
The output power is configur ab le in 3 dB steps with the txpow[2:0] field in "Register 6Dh. TX Power". Extra
output power can allow the use of a cheaper smaller antenna, greatly reducing the overall BOM cost. The
higher power setting of the chip achieves maximum possible range, but of course comes at the cost of
higher TX current consumption. However, depending on the duty cycle of the s yst em, the effect on battery
life may be insignificant.

32.5.8. Crystal Oscillator
The transceiver includes an integrated 30 MHz crystal oscillator with a fast start-up time of less than
600 µs when a suitable parallel resonant crystal is used. The design is differential with the required crystal
load capacitance integrated on-chip to minimize the number of external components. By default, all that is
required off-chip is the 30 MHz crystal.
The crystal load capacitance can be digitally programmed to accommodate crystals with various load
capacit ance requirement s and to adjust the frequency of the crystal oscillator. The tuning of the crystal load
capacitance is programmed through the xlc[6:0] field of "Register 09h. 30 MHz Crystal Oscillator Load
Capacitance". The total internal capacitance is 12.5 pF and is adjustable in approximately 127 steps
(97fF/step). The xtalshift bit provides a coarse shift in frequency but is not binary with xlc[6:0].
The crystal frequency adjustment can be used to compensate for crystal production tolerances. Utilizing
the on-chip temperature sensor and suitable control software, the temperature dependency of the crystal
can be canceled .
The typical value of the total on-chip capacitance Cint can be calculated as follows:
Cint = 1.8 pF + 0.085 pF x xlc[6:0] + 3.7 pF x xtalshift
Note that the coarse shift bit xtalshift is not binary with xlc[6:0]. The tota l load capa citance Cload seen by
the crystal can be calculated by adding the sum of all external parasitic PCB capacitances Cext to Cint. If
the maximum value of Cint (16.3 pF) is not sufficien t, an external capacitor can be added for exact tuning.
Additional information on calculating Cext and crystal selection guidelines is provided in “AN417: Si4x3x
Family Crystal Oscillator.”
If AFC is disabled then the synthesizer frequency may be further adjusted by programming the Frequency
Offset field fo[9:0]in "Register 73h. Frequency Offset 1" and "Register 74h. Frequency Offset 2", as dis-
cussed in “Frequency Control” on page 449.
The crystal oscillator frequency is divided down internally and may be output to the microcontroller through
one of the GPIO pins for use as the System Clock. In this fashion, only one crystal oscillator is required for
the entire system and the BOM cost is reduced. The available clock frequencies and GPIO configuration
are discussed further in “Output Clock” on page 474.
The transceiver may also be driven with an external 30 MHz clock signal through the XOUT pin. When
driving with an external reference or using a TCXO, the XTAL load capacitance register should be set to 0.
32.5.9. Regulators
There are a tot al of six reg ulators integrated onto the transceiver. With the except ion of the digit al regulator,
all regulators are designed to opera te with only internal deco uplin g. The digital regulator requires an exter-
nal 1 µF decoupling capacitor. All regulators are designed to operate with an input supply voltage from
+1.8 to +3.6 V. The output stage of the of PA is not connected internally to a regulator and is connected
directly to the batt er y voltage.
A supply voltag e should only be connected to the V DD pins. No volta ge should be fo rced on the digit al reg-
ulator output.

32.6.1. RX and TX FIFOs
Two 64 byte FIFOs are integrated into the chip, one for RX and one for TX, as shown in Figure 32.11.
"Register 7Fh. FIFO Access" is used to access both FIFOs. A burst write to address 7Fh will write data to
the TX FIFO. A burst read from address 7Fh will read data from the RX FIFO.
Figure 32.11. FIFO Thresholds
The TX FIFO has two programmable thresholds. An interrupt event occurs when the data in the TX FIFO
reaches these thresholds . The first threshold is the FIFO almost full thr eshold, txafthr [5:0]. The value in this
register corresponds to the desired threshold value in number of bytes. When the data being filled into the
TX FIFO crosses this threshold limit, an interrupt to the microcontroller is generated so the chip can enter
TX mode t o transmit the contents of t he TX FIF O. The se cond thresho ld for TX is the FIFO almost em pty
threshold, txaethr[5:0]. When the data being shifted out of the TX FIFO drops below the almost empty
threshold an interrupt will be generated. If more data is not loaded into the FIFO then the chip
automatically exits the TX St ate after the ipksent interrupt occurs. The chip will return to the mode selected
by the rem aining bits in SPI Register 07h. For exam ple, the chip m ay be placed into TX mode by s etting
the txon bit, but with the xton bit additionally set. For this condition, the chip will transmit all of the contents
of the FIFO and the ipksent interrupt will occur . When this interrupt event occurs, the chip will clear the txon
bit and return to READY mode, as indicated by the set state of the xton bit. If the pllon bit D1 is set when
entering TX mode (i.e., SPI Register 07h = 0Ah), the chip will exit from TX mode after sending the packet
and return to TUNE mode.
However, the chip will not automatically return to STANDBY mode upon exit from the TX state, in the event
the TX packet is initiated by setting SPI Register 07h = 08h (i.e., setting only txon bit D3). The chip will
instead return to READY mode, with the crystal oscillator remaining enabled. This is intentional; the sys-
tem may be configured such that the host MCU derives its clock from the MCU_CLK output of the RFIC
(through GPIO2), and this clock signal must not be shut down without allowing the host MCU time to pro-
cess any interrupt signals that may have occurred. The host MCU must subsequently perform a WRITE to
SPI Register 07h = 00h to enter STANDBY mode and obtain minimum current consumption.

The RX FIFO has one programmable threshold called the FIFO Almost Full Threshold, rxafthr[5:0]. When
the incoming RX data crosses the Almost Full Threshold an interrupt will be generated to the microcon-
troller via the nIRQ pin. The microcontroller will then need to read the data from the RX FIFO.
Both the TX and RX FIFOs may be cleared or reset with the ffclrtx and ffclrrx bits. All interrupts may be
enabled by setting the Interrupt En ab led bits in "Register 05h. Interrupt Enable 1" and “Register 06h. Inter-
rupt Enable 2.” If the interrupts are not enabled the function will not generate an interrup t on the nIRQ pin
but the bits will still be read correctly in the Interrupt Status registers.
32.6.2. Packet Configuration
When using the FIFOs, automatic packet handling may be enabled for TX mode, RX mode, or both. "Reg-
ister 30h. Data Access Control" through “Register 4Bh. Received Packet Length” control the configuration,
status, and decoded RX packet data for Packet Handling. The usual fields for network communication
(such as preamble, synchr onization wor d, headers, p acket length, and CRC) can be configu red to be auto-
matically added to the data payload. The fields needed for packet ge ne ratio n no rma lly change infr equ ently
and can therefore be stored in registers. Automatically adding these fields to the data payload greatly
reduces the amount of communication between the microcontroller and the transceiver.
The general packet structure is shown in Figure 32.12. The length of each field is shown below the field.
The preamble pattern is always a series of alternating ones and zeroes, starting with a zero. All the fields
have programmabl e leng ths to accommo da te different applications. The most common CRC polyn ominals
are available for selection.

32.6.3. Packet Handler TX Mode
If the TX packet length is set the packet handler will send the number of bytes in the packet length field
before returning to IDLE mode and asserting the packet sent interrupt. To resume sending data from the
FIFO the microcontroller ne eds to command the chip to re-e nter TX mode. Figure 32.13 provides an exam-
ple transaction where the packet length is set to three bytes.

32.6.4. Packet Handler RX Mode
32.6.4.1. Packet Handler Disabled
When the packet handler is disabled certain fields in the received packet are still required. Proper modem
operation requ ires preamble and sync when the FIFO is being used, as shown in Figure 32.14. Bits after
sync will be treated as raw data with no qualification. This mode allows for the creation of a custom packet
handler when the automatic qualification parameters are not sufficient. Manchester encoding is supported
but data whitening, CRC, and header checks are not.
Figure 32.14. Required RX Packet Structure with Packet Handler Disabled
32.6.4.2. Packet Handler Enabled
When the packet hand ler is enabled, all the field s of the packet structure nee d to be configured. Regis ter
contents are used to construct the header field and length information encoded into the transmitted packet
when transmitting. The receive FIFO can be configured to handle pa cket s of fixed or vari able length with or
without a header. If multiple packets are desired to be stored in the FIFO, then there are options available
for the different fields that will be stored into the FIFO. Figure 32.15 demonstrates the options and settings
available when multiple packets are enabled. Figure 32.16 demonstrates the operation of fixed packet
length and correct/incorrect packets.

32.6.5. Data Whitening, Manchester Encoding, and CRC
Data whitening can be used to avoid extended sequences of 0s or 1s in the transmitted data stream to
achieve a more uniform spectrum. When enabled, the payload data bits are XORed with a pseudorandom
sequence output from the built-in PN9 generator. The generator is initialized at the beginning of the pay-
load. The receiver recovers the original data by repeating this operation. Manchester encoding can be
used to ensure a dc-free transmission and good synchronization propertie s. When Manchester encoding is
used, the effective datarate is unchanged but the actual datarate (preamble length, etc.) is doubled due to
the nature of the encoding. The effective datarate when using Manchester encoding is limited to 128 kbps.
The implementation of Manchester encoding is shown in Figure 32.18. Data whitening and Manchester
encoding can be selected with "Register 70h. Modulation Mode Control 1". The CRC is configured via
"Register 30h. Data Access Control". Figure 32.17 demonstrates the portions of the packet which have
Manchester encoding, data whitening, and CRC applied. CRC can be applied to only the data portion of
the packet or to the data, packet length and header fields. Figure 32.18 provides an example of how the
Manchester encoding is done and also the use of the Manchester invert (enmaniv) function.

32.6.6. Preamble Detector
The EZRadioPRO transceiver has integrated automatic preamble detection. The preamble length is con-
figurable from 1–255 bytes using the prealen[7:0] field in "Register 33h. Header Control 2" and "Register
34h. Preamble Length ", as described in “32.6.2. Packet Configuration” . The preamble detection threshol d,
preath[4:0] as set in "Register 35h. Preamble Detection Control 1", is in units of 4 bits. The preamble
detector searches for a preamble pattern with a length of preath[4:0].
If a false preamble detect occurs, the receiver will continuing searching for the preamble when no sync
word is detected. Once preamble is detected (false or real) then the part will then start searching for sync.
If no sync occurs then a timeout will occur and the device will initiate search for preamble again. The time-
out period is defined as the sync word length plus four bits and will start after a non-preamble pattern is
recognized after a valid preamble detection. The preamble detector output may be programmed onto one
of the GPIO or read in the interrupt status registers.
32.6.7. Preamble Length
The preamble detection threshold determines the number of valid preamble bits the radio must receive to
qualify a valid preamble. The preamble threshold should be adjusted dependin g on the nature of the appli-
cation. The required preamble length threshold will depend on when receive mode is entered in relation to
the start of the transmitted packet and the length of the transmit preamble. With a shorter than recom-
mended preamble detection threshold the probability of false detection is directly related to how long the
receiver operates on noise before the transmit preamble is received. False detection on noise may cause
the actual p acket to b e misse d. The pr eamble de tectio n threshold is programmed in register 35h. For most
applications with a preamble le ngth longe r than 32 bit s the default value of 20 is recommend ed for th e pre -

amble detection threshold. A shorter Preamble Detection Threshold may be chosen if occasional false
detections may be tolerated. When antenna diversity is enabled a 20-bit preamble detection threshold is
recommended. When the receiver is synchronously enabled just before the start of the packet, a shorter
preamble detection threshold may be used. Table 32.5 demonstrates the recommended preamble detec-
tion threshold and preamble length for various modes.
It is possible to use the transceiver in a raw mode without the requirement for a 010101... preamble. Con-
tact customer support for further details.
Note: The recommended preamble length and preamble detection threshold listed above are to achieve 0% PER.
They may be shortened when occasional packet errors are tolerable.
32.6.8. Invalid Preamble Detector
When scannin g ch an ne ls in a freq ue n cy h o pp ing sy ste m it is desirable to determine if a channel is valid in
the minimum amount of time. The preamble detector can output an invalid preamble detect signal. which
can be used to identify the channel as invalid. After a configurable time set in Register 60h[7:4], an invalid
preamble detect signal is asserted indicating an invalid channel. The period for evaluating the signal for
invalid preamble is defin ed as (inv_pr e_th[3:0] x 4) x Bit Rate Period. The p reambl e d etect and invalid pr e-
amble detect signals are available in "Register 03h. Interrupt/Status 1" and “Register 04h. Interrupt/Status
2.”
32.6.9. Synchronization Word Configuration
The synchronization word length for both TX and RX can be configured in Reg 33h, synclen[1:0]. The
expected or transmitted sync word can be configured from 1 to 4 bytes as defined below:
synclen[1:0] = 00—Expected/Transmitted Synchronization Word (sync word) 3.
synclen[1:0] = 01—Expected/Transmitted Synchronization Word 3 first, followed by sync word 2.
synclen[1:0] = 10—Expected/Transmitted Synchronization Word 3 first, followed by sync word 2,
followed by sync word 1.
synclen[1:0] = 1—Send/Expect Synchronization Word 3 first, followed by sync word 2, followed by sync
word 1, followed by sync word 0.
The sync is transmitted or expecte d in the following sequence : sync 3 sync 2sync 1sync 0. The sync
word values can be programmed in Registers 36h–39h. After preamble detection the part will search for
sync for a fixed period of time. If a sync is not recognized in this period then a timeout will occur and the
search for preamble will be re-initiated. The timeout period after preamble detections is defined as the
value programmed into the sync word length plus four additional bits.

32.6.10. Receive Header Check
The header check is designed to support 1–4 bytes and broadcast headers. The header length needs to
be set in register 33h, hdlen[2 :0]. The headers to be checked nee d to be set in register 32h , hd ch[3 :0]. For
instance, there can be four byte s of header in the packet structure but only one byte of the header is set to
be checked ( i.e., header 3). For the h eaders that are set to be checked, the expected value of the header
should be program med in ch hd[31:0] in Register s 3F–42. The individ ual bits within the se lected bytes to be
checked can be enabled or disabled with the head er ena bles, hden[31:0] in Regist ers 43–46. For examp le,
if you want to check all bits in header 3 then hden[3 1:24] should be set to FF but if only the last 4 bits are
desired to be checked then it shou ld be set to 00001111 (0F). Broadcast headers can also be programme d
by setting bcen[3:0] in Register 32h. For broadcast header check the value may be either “FFh” or the
value stored in the Check Header register. A logic equivalent of the header check for Header 3 is shown in
Figure 32.19. A similar logic check will be done for Header 2, Header 1, and Header 0 if enabled.

32.6.11. TX Retransmission and Auto TX
The transceiver is cap able of au tomatically retra nsmitti ng the last packet loaded in the TX FIFO. Automatic
retransmiss ion is set by ent ering the T X state with the txon bit with out re loading the T X FI FO. Th is featu re
is useful for beacon transmission or when retransmission is required due to the absence of a valid
acknowledgement. Only packets that fit completely in the TX FIFO can be automatically retransmitted.
An automatic transmission function is available, allowing the radio to automatica lly st art or stop a transm is-
sion depending on the amount of data in the TX FIFO.
When autotx is set in “Register 08. Operating & Function Control 2", the transceiver will automatically enter
the TX state when the TX FIFO almost full threshold is exceeded. Packets will be transmitted according to
the configured packet length. To stop transmitting, clear the packet sent or TX FIFO almost empty inter-
rupts must be cleared by reading regi ster.

32.7. RX Modem Configuration
A Microsoft Excel parameter calculator or Wireless Development Suite (WDS) calculator is provided to
determine the proper settings for the modem. The calculator can be found on www.silabs.com or on the
CD provided with the demo kits. An application note is available to describe how to use the calculator and
to provide advanced descriptions of the modem settings and calculations.
32.7.1. Modem Settings for FSK and GFSK
The modem performs channel selection and demodulation in the digital domain. The channel filter band-
width is configurable from 2.6 to 620 kHz. The receiver data-rate, mo dulatio n ind ex, and b and width are set
via registers 1C–25h. The modulation index is equal to 2 times the peak deviation divided by the data rate
(Rb).
When Manchester coding is disabled, the re quired channel filter bandwidth is calculated as BW = 2Fd + Rb
where Fd is the frequ en cy de via tio n an d Rb is the data rate.
32.8. Auxiliary Functions
The EZRadioPRO has some auxiliary functions that duplicate the directly accessible MCU peripherals:
ADC, temperature sensor, and 32 kHz oscillator. These auxiliary functions are retained primarily for com-
patibility with the Si4430/1/2. The directly accessed MCU peripherals typically provide lower system cur-
rent consumption and better analog performance. However some of these EZRadioPRO auxiliary
functions offer features not directly duplicated in the MCU directly accessed peripherals, such as the Low
Duty Cycle Mode operation.
32.8.1. Smart Reset
The EZRadioPRO transceiver contains an enhanced integrated SMART RESET or POR circuit. The POR
circuit contains both a classic level threshold reset as well as a slope detector POR. This reset circuit was
designed to produce a reliable reset signal under any circumstances. Reset will be initiated if any of the fol-
lowing conditions occur:
Initial power on, VDD starts from gnd: reset is active till VDD reaches VRR (see table);
When VDD decreases below VLD for any reason: reset is active till VDD reaches VRR;
A software reset via “Register 08h. Operating Mode and Function Control 2”: reset is active for time

The reset will initialize all registers to their default values. The reset signal is also available for output and
use by the microcontroller by using the default setting for GPIO_0. The inverted reset signal is available by
default on GPIO_1.
32.8.2. Output Clock
The 30 MHz crystal oscillator frequency is divided down internally and may be output on GPIO2. This fea-
ture is useful to lower BOM cost by using only one crystal in the system. The output clock on GPIO2 may
be routed to the XTAL2 input to provide a synchronized clock source between the MCU and the EZRadio-
PRO peripheral. The output clock frequency is selectable from one of 8 options, as shown below. Except
for the 32.768 kHz option, all other frequencies are derived by dividing the crystal oscillator frequency. The
32.768 kHz clock signal is derived from an internal RC oscillator or an external 32 kHz crystal. The default
setting for GPIO2 is to output the clock signal with a frequency of 1 MHz.
Since the crystal oscillator is disabled in SLEEP mode in order to save current, the low-power 32.768 kHz
clock can be automatically switched to become the output clock. This feature is called enable low fre-
quency clock and is enabled by the enlfc bit in “Register 0Ah. Microcontroller Output Clock." When enlfc =
1 and the chip is in SLEEP mode then the 32.768 kHz clock will be provided regardless of the setting of
mclk[2:0]. For example, if mclk[2:0] = 000, 30 MHz will be provided through the GPIO output pin in all IDLE,

TX, or RX states. When the chip enters SLEEP mode, the output clock will automatically switch to
32.768 kHz from the RC oscillator or 32.768 XTAL.
Another available feature for the output clock is the clock tail, clkt[1:0] in “Register 0Ah. Microcontroller
Output Clock." If the low frequency clock feature is not enabled (enlfc = 0), then the output is disabled in
SLEEP mode. Setting the clkt[1:0] field will provide additional cycles of the output clock before it shuts off.
If an interrupt is triggered, the output clock will remain enabled regardless of the selected mode. As soon
as the interrupt is read the state machine will then move to the selected mode. The minimum current con-
sumption will not be achieved until the interrupt is read. For instance, if the EZRadioPRO peripheral is
commanded to SLEEP mode but an interrupt has occurred the 30 MHz XTAL will not be disabled until the
interrupt has been cleared.
32.8.3. General Purpose ADC
The EZRadioPRO pe ripheral in cludes an 8- bit SAR ADC inde pende nt of ADC0. It may be u sed fo r genera l
purpose analog sampling, as well as for digitizing the EZRadioPRO temperature sensor reading. In most
cases, the ADC0 subsystem directly accessible from the MCU will be preferred over the ADC embedded
inside the EZRadioPRO peripheral. Registers 0Fh "ADC Configuration", 10h "Sensor Offset" and 4Fh
"Amplifier Offset" can be used to configure the ADC operation. Details of these registers are in “AN440:
EZRadioPRO Detailed Register Descriptions.”
Every time an ADC conversion is desired, bit 7 "adcstart/adcdone" in Register 0Fh “ADC Configuration”
must be set to 1. The conversion time for the ADC is 350 µs. After the ADC conversion is done and the
adcdone signal is showing 1, then the ADC value may be read out o f “Register 11h: ADC Value." When the
ADC is doing its conversion, the adcstart/adcdone bit will read 0. When the ADC has finished its conver-
sion, the bit will be set to 1. A new ADC conversion can be initiated by writing a 1 to the adcstart/adcdone
bit.
The architecture of the ADC is shown in Figure 32.21. The signal and reference inputs of the ADC are
selected by adcsel[2:0] and adcref[1:0] in register 0Fh “ADC Configuration”, respectively. The default set-
ting is to read out the temperature sensor using the bandgap voltage (VBG) as reference. With the VBG
reference the input range of the ADC is from 0–1.02 V with an LSB resolution of 4 mV (1.02/255). Chang-
ing the ADC reference will change the LSB resolution accordingly.
A differential multiplexer and amplifier are provided for interfacing external bridge sensors. The gain of the
amplifier is selectable by adcgain[1:0] in Register 0Fh. T h e majo r ity o f sensor bridges have supply voltage
(VDD) dependent gain and offset. The reference voltage of the ADC can be changed to either VDD/2 or
VDD/3. A programmable VDD dependent offset voltage can be added using soffs[3:0] in register 10h.

32.8.4. Temperature Sensor
The EZRadioPRO peripheral includes an integrated on-chip analog temperature sensor independent of
the temperature sensor associated with ADC0. The temperature sensor will be automatically enabled
when the temperature sensor is selected as the input of the EZRadioPRO ADC or when the analog temp
voltage is selected on the analog test bus. The temperature sensor value may be digitized using the EZRa-
dioPRO general-purpose ADC and read out through "Register 10h. ADC Sensor Amplifier Offset." The
range of the temperature sensor is configurable. Table 32.7 lists the settings for the different temperature
ranges and performance.
To use the Temp Sensor:
1. Set the input for ADC to the tem perature se nsor, "Register 0Fh. ADC Configur ation"—adcsel[2:0] = 000
2. Set the reference for ADC, "Register 0Fh. ADC Configuration"—adcref[1:0] = 00
3. Set the temperature range for ADC, "Register 12h. Temperature Sensor Calibration"—tsrange[1:0]
4. Set entsoffs = 1, "Register 12h. Temperature Sensor Calibration"
5. Trigger ADC reading, "Register 0Fh. ADC Configuration"—adcstart = 1

The slope of the temperatur e se nsor is very linear and monotoni c. For ab solute accuracy better tha n 10 °C
calibration is necessary. The temperature sensor may be calibrated by setting entsoffs = 1 in “Register
12h. Temperature Sensor Control” and se tting the offset with the tvoffs[7:0] bits in “Reg iste r 13 h. Tempera-
ture Value Offset.” This method adds a positive offset digitally to the ADC value that is read in “Register
11h. ADC Value.” The other method of calibration is to use the tstrim which compensates the analog cir-
cuit. This is done by setting entstrim = 1 and using the tstrim[2:0] bits to offset the temperature in “Register
12h. Temperature Sensor Control.” With this method of calibration, a negative offset may be achieved.
With both methods of calibration better than ±3 °C absolute accuracy may be achieved.
The dif ferent ra nges for the tempera ture sensor an d ADC8 are demo nstrated in Figure 32.22. The value of
the ADC8 may be translated to a temperature reading by ADC8Value x ADC8 LSB + Lowest Temperature

32.8.5. Low Battery Detector
A low battery detector (LBD) with d igital read-out is integrated into the ch ip. A digi tal threshold may be pro-
grammed into the lbdt[4:0] field in "Register 1Ah. Low Battery Detector Thr eshold". Wh en th e digi tize d bat-
tery voltage reaches this threshold an interrupt will be generated on the nIRQ pin to the microcontroller.
The microcontroller can confirm source of the interrupt by reading "Register 03h. Interrupt/Status 1" and
“Register 04h. Interrupt/Status 2.”
If the LBD is enabled while the chip is in SLEEP mode, it will automatically enable the RC oscillator which
will periodically turn on the LBD circuit to measure the battery voltage. The battery voltage may also be
read out through "Register 1Bh. Battery Voltage Level" at any time when the LBD is enabled. The low bat-
tery detect function is enabled by setting enlbd=1 in "Register 07h. Operating Mode and Function Control
1".
The LBD output is digitized by a 5-bit ADC. When the LBD function is enabled (enlbd = 1 in "Register 07h.
Operating Mo de an d F u nc tio n Co n tro l 1" ) th e b at te ry voltage may be read at anytime by reading "Register
1Bh. Battery Volta ge Level." A battery voltage threshold may be progra mmed in “Register 1Ah. Low Bat-
tery Detector Threshold". When the battery voltage level drops below the battery voltage threshold an
interrupt will be generated on nIRQ pin to the microcontroller if the LBD interrupt is enabled in “Register

06h. Interrupt Enable 2.” The microcontroller will then need to verify the interrupt by reading the interrupt
status register, addresses 03 and 04h. The LSB step size fo r the LBD ADC is 50 mV, with the ADC range
demonstrated in the table below. If the LBD is enabled the LBD and ADC will automatically be enabled
every 1 s for approximately 250 µs to measure the voltage which minimizes the current consumption in
Sensor mode. Before an interrupt is activated four consecutive readings are required.
32.8.6. Wake-Up Timer and 32 kHz Clock Source
The EZRadioPRO peripheral contains an integrated wake-up timer independent of the SmaRTClock which
can be used to periodically wake the chip from SLEEP mode using the interrupt pin. The wake-up timer
runs from the internal 32.768 kHz RC Oscillator. The wake-up timer can be configured to run when in
SLEEP mode. If enwt = 1 in "Register 07h. Operating Mode and Function Control 1" when entering SLEEP
mode, the wake-up timer will count for a time specified defined in Registers 14–16h, "Wake Up Timer
Period". At the expiration of this period an interrupt will be generated on the nIRQ pin if this interrupt is
enabled. The software will then need to verify the interrupt by reading the Registers 03h–04h, "Interrupt
Status 1 & 2". The wake-up timer value may be read at any time by the wtv[15:0] read only registers 17h–
18h.
The formula for calculating the Wake-Up Period is the following:
Use of the D variable in the formula is only necessary if finer resolution is required than can be achieved by
using the R value.

There are two different methods for utilizing the wake-up timer (WUT) depending on if the WUT interrupt is
enabled in “Register 06h. Interrupt Enable 2.” If the WUT interrupt is enabled then nIRQ pin will go low
when the timer expires. The chip will also change state so that the 30 MHz XTAL is enabled so that the
microcontroller clock output is available for the microcontroller to use to process the interrupt. The other
method of use is to not enable the WUT interr upt and use the WUT GPIO setting. In this mode of operation
the chip will not change state until commanded by the microcontroller. The diff erent modes of op erating the
WUT and the current consumption impacts are demonstrated in Figure 32.23.
A 32 kHz XTAL may also be used for better timing accuracy. By setting the x32 ksel bit in Register 07h
"Operating & Function Control 1", GPIO0 is automatically reconfigured so that an external 32 kHz XTAL
may be connected to this pin. In this mode, the GPIO0 is extremely sensitive to parasitic capacitance, so
only the XTAL should be connected to this pin with the XTAL physically located as close to the pin as pos-
sible. Once the x32 ksel bit is set, all internal functions such as WUT, microcontroller clock, and LDC mode
will use the 32 kHz XTAL and not the 32 kHz RC oscillator.
The 32 kHz XTAL accuracy is comprised of both the XTAL par ameters and the internal circuit. The XTAL
accuracy can be defined as the XTAL initial error + XTAL aging + XTAL temperature drift + detuning from
the internal oscillator circuit. The error caused by the internal circuit is typically less than 10 ppm.

The Low Duty Cycle Mode is available to automatically wake-up the receiver to check if a valid signal is
available. The basic operation of the low duty cycle mode is demonstrated in the figure below. If a valid
preamble or sync word is not detected the chip will return to sleep mode until the beginning of a new WUT
period. If a valid preamble and sync are detected the receiver on period will be extended for the low duty
cycle mode duration (TLDC) to receive all of the packet. The WUT period must be set in conjunction with
the low duty cycle mode duration. The R value (“Register 14h. Wake-up Timer Period 1”) is shared

Three general purpose IOs (GPIOs) are available. Numerous functions such as specific interrupts , TRSW
control, etc. can be routed to the GPIO pins as shown in the tables below. When in Shutdown mode all the
GPIO pads are pulled low.
Note: The ADC should not be selected as an input to the GPIO in standby or sleep modes and will cause excess cur-
rent consumption.
The GPIO settings for GPIO1 and GPIO2 are the same as for GPIO0 with the exception of the 00000
default setting. The default settings for each GPIO are listed below:
For a complete list of the available GPIOs see “AN440: EZRadioPRO Detailed Register Descriptions”.
The GPIO drive strength may be adjusted with the gpioXdrv[1:0] bits. Setting a higher value will increase
the drive strength and current capability of the GPIO by changing the driver size. Special care should be

taken in setting the drive strength and loading on GPIO2 when the microcontroller clock is used. Excess
loading or inadequate drive may contribute to increased spurious emissions.
Pin 6, ANT may be used as an alternate to control a TR switch. Pin 6 is a hardwired version of GPI O s et-
ting 11000, Antenna 2 Switch used for antenna diversity. It can be manually controlled by the antdiv[2:0]
bits in register 08h if antenna diversity is not used. See AN440, register 08h for more details.
32.8.9. Antenna Diversity
To mitigate the pr oblem of freque ncy-selectiv e fading due to multi-path propagation, some transceiver sys-
tems use a scheme known as antenna diversity. In this scheme, two antennas are used. Each time the
transceiver enters RX mode the receive signal strength from each antenna is evaluated. This evaluation
process takes place during the preamble portion of the packet. The antenna with the strongest received
signal is then used for the remainder of that RX packet. The same antenna will also be used for the next
correspond in g TX packet.
This chip fully supports antenna diversity with an integrated antenna diversity control algorithm. The
required signals needed to control an external SPDT RF switch (such as PIN diode or GaAs switch) are
available on the GPIOx pins. The operation of these GPIO signals is programmable to allow for different
antenna diversity architecture s and co nfigurations. The antdiv[2:0] bits are found in register 08h “Operating
& Function Control 2.” The GPIO pins are capable of sourcing up to 5 mA of current, so it may be used
directly to forwar d- bia s a PIN dio de if desired .
The antenna diversity algorithm will automatically toggle back and forth between the antennas until the
packet starts to arrive. The recommended preamble length for optimal antenna selection is 8 bytes. A spe-
cial antenna diversity algorithm (antdiv[2:0] = 110 or 111) is included that allows for shorter preamble
lengths for beacon mode in TDMA-like systems where the arrival of the packet is synchronous to the
receiver enable. The recommended preamble length to obtain optimal antenna selection for synchronous
mode is 4 bytes.
32.8.10. RSSI and Clear Channel Assessment
Received sign al streng th indicator (RSSI) is a n estimate of the signal strength in the channel to which the
receiver is tuned. The RSSI value can be read from an 8-bit register with 0.5 dB resolution per bit.
Figure 32.25 demonstrates the relationship between input power level and RSSI value. The absolute value
of the RSSI will change slightly depending on the modem settings. The RSSI may be read at anytime, but

an incorrect error may rarely occur. The RSSI value may be incorrect if read during the update period. The
update period is approximately 10 ns every 4 Tb. For 10 kbps , this would result in a 1 in 40,000 probability
that the RSSI may be read incorrectly. This probability is extremely low, but to avoid this, one of the follow-
ing options is recommended: majority polling, reading the RSSI value within 1 Tb of the RSSI interrupt, or
using the RSSI threshold described in the next paragraph for Clear Channel Assessment (CCA).
For CCA, threshold is programmed into rssith[7:0] in "Register 27h. RSSI Threshold for Clear Channel
Indicator." After the RSSI is evaluated in the preamble, a decision is made if the signal strength on this
channel is above or below the thr eshold. If the sign al strength is above th e programme d threshold then th e
RSSI status bit, irssi, in "Register 04h. Interrupt/Status 2" will be set to 1. The RSSI status can also be
routed to a GPIO line by configuring the GPIO configuration register to GPIOx[3:0] = 1110.

33. Timers
Each MCU includes four counter/timers: two are 16-bit counter/timers compatible with those found in the
standard 8051, and two are 16-bit auto-reload timer for use with the ADC, SMBus, or for general purpose
use. These timers can be used to measure time intervals, count external events and generate periodic
interrupt requests. Timer 0 and Timer 1 are nearly identical and have four primary modes of operation.
Timer 2 and T ime r 3 of fer 16-bit and split 8- bit timer functionality with auto-reload. Additi onally, Timer 2 an d
Timer 3 have a Capture Mode that can be used to measure the SmaRTClock, Comparator, or external
clock period with respect to another oscillator. The ability to measure the Comparator period with respect
to another oscillator is particularly useful when interfacing to capacitive sensors.
Timers 0 and 1 may be clocked by one of five sources, determined by the Timer Mode Select bits (T1M
T0M) and the Clock Scale bits (SCA1–SCA0). The Clock Scale bits define a pre-scaled clock from which
Timer 0 and/or Timer 1 may be clocked (See SFR Definition 33.1 for pre-scaled cl ock selection).
Timer 0/1 may then be configured to use this pre-scaled clock signal or the system clock. Timer 2 and
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12. Timer 2 may additionally be
clocked by the SmaRTClock divided by 8 or the Comparator0 output. Timer 3 may additionally be clocked
by the external oscillator clock source divided by 8 or the Comparator1 output.
Timer 0 and Timer 1 may also be operated as counters. When functioning as a counter, a counter/timer
register is incr emented on each hi gh-to-low transition at the sele cted input pin (T0 o r T1). Event s with a fre-
quency of up to one-fourth the system clock frequency can be counted. The input signal need not be peri-
odic, but it should be held at a given level for at least two full system clock cycles to ensure the level is
properly sampled.

33.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1
Each timer is implemented as a 16-bit register accessed as two separate bytes: a low byte (TL0 or TL1)
and a high byte (TH0 or TH1). The Counter/Timer Control register (TCON) is used to enable Timer 0 and
Timer 1 as well as indica te status. Timer 0 interrupts can be enable d by sett ing th e ET0 bit in th e IE regis -
ter (Section “17.5. Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 241); Timer 1 interrupts can be enabled by set-
ting the ET1 bit in the IE register (Section “17.5. Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 241). Both
counter/timers operate in one of four primary modes selected by setting the Mode Select bits T1M1T0M0
in the Counter/Timer Mode register (TMOD). Each timer can be configured independently. Each operating
mode is described below.
33.1.1. Mode 0: 13-bit Counter/Timer
Timer 0 and Ti mer 1 operate as 13-bit counter/timers in Mode 0. The following describes the configuration
and operation of Timer 0. However, both timers operate identically, and Timer 1 is configured in the same
manner as described for Timer 0.
The TH0 register holds the eight MSBs of the 13-bit counter/timer. TL0 holds the five LSBs in bit positions
TL0.4TL0.0. The three upper bits of TL0 (TL0.7TL0.5) are indeterminate and should be masked out or
ignored when reading. As the 13-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0x1FFF (all ones) to
0x0000, the timer overflow flag TF0 (TCON.5) is set and an interrupt will occur if Timer 0 interrupts are
enabled.
The C/T0 bit (TMOD.2) selects the counter/timer's clock source. When C/T0 is set to logic 1, high-to-low
transitions at the selected Timer 0 input pin (T0) increment the timer register (Refer to Section
“27.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 362 for information on selecting and configuring external I/O
pins). Clearing C/T selects the clock defined by the T0M bit (CKCON.3). When T0M is set, Timer 0 is
clocked by the system clock. When T0M is cleare d, Timer 0 is clocked by the so urce sele cte d by the Clock
Scale bits in CKCON (see SFR Definition 33.1).
Setting the TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 (TMOD.3) is logic 0 or the input signal
INT0 is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see SFR Definition 17.7). Setting GATE0 to 1
allows the timer to be controlled by the external input signal INT0 (see Section “17.5. Interrupt Register
Descriptions” on page 241), facilit ating pulse width measurements
Setting TR0 does not force the timer to reset. The timer registers should be loaded with the desired initial
value before the timer is enabled.
TL1 and TH1 form the 13-bit regi ster for Timer 1 in the same ma nner as described ab ove for TL0 and TH0.
Timer 1 is configured and controlled using the relevant TCON and TMOD bits just as with Timer 0. The
input signal INT1 is used with Timer 1; the INT1 polarity is defined by bit IN1PL in register IT01CF (see
SFR Definition 17.7).

33.1.2. Mode 1: 16-bit Counter/Timer
Mode 1 operation is the same as Mode 0, except that the counter/timer registers use all 16 bits. The coun-
ter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 1 in the same manner as for Mode 0.
33.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload
Mode 2 conf igures Timer 0 and Timer 1 to operate as 8-bit counter/timers with automatic reload of the st art
value. TL0 holds the count and TH0 holds the reload value. When the counter in TL0 overflows from all
ones to 0x00, the timer overflow flag TF0 (TCON.5) is set and the counter in TL0 is reloaded from TH0. If
Timer 0 interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will occur when the TF0 flag is set. The reload value in TH0 is
not changed. TL0 must be initialized to the desired value before enabling the timer for the first count to be
correct. When in Mode 2, Timer 1 operates identically to Timer 0.
Both counter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 2 in the same manner as Mode 0. Setting the
TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 (TMOD.3) is logic 0 or when the input sig na l INT0
is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see Section “17.6. External Interrupts INT0 and INT1”
on page 248 for details on the external input signals INT0 and INT1).

33.1.4. Mode 3: Two 8-bit Counter/Timers (T imer 0 Only)
In Mode 3, Timer 0 is configured as two separate 8-bit counter/timers held in TL0 and TH0. The coun-
ter/timer in TL0 is controlle d using th e Timer 0 control/status bits in TCON and T MOD : TR0, C /T0, GATE0
and TF0. TL0 can use either the system clock or an ex ternal inp ut signal as it s tim ebase. The TH0 r egister
is restricted to a timer function sourced by the system clock or prescaled clock. TH0 is enabled using the
Timer 1 run control bit TR1. TH0 sets the Timer 1 overflow flag TF1 on overflow and thus controls the
Timer 1 interrupt.
Timer 1 is inactive in Mode 3. When Timer 0 is operating in Mode 3, Timer 1 can be operated in Modes 0,
1 or 2, but cannot be clocked by external signals nor set the TF1 flag and generate an interrupt. However,
the Timer 1 overflow can be used to generate baud rates for the SMBus and/or UART, and/or initiate ADC
conversions. While Timer 0 is operating in Mode 3, Timer 1 run control is handled through its mode set-
tings. To run Timer 1 while Timer 0 is in Mode 3, set the Timer 1 Mode as 0, 1, or 2. To disable Timer 1,
configure it for Mode 3.

33.2. Timer 2
Timer 2 is a 16-bit timer fo rmed by two 8- bit SFRs: TMR2L ( low byte) and TMR2H ( high byte). Timer 2 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T2SPLIT bit (TMR2CN.3) defines
the Timer 2 operation mode. Timer 2 can also be used in Capture Mode to measure the SmaRTClock or
the Comparator 0 period with respect to another oscillator. The ability to measure the Comp arator 0 pe rio d
with respect to the system clock is makes using Touch Sense Switches very easy.
Timer 2 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, SmaRTClock divided by 8, or
Comparator 0 output. Note that the SmaRTClock divided by 8 and Comparator 0 output is synchronized
with the system clock.
33.2.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T2SPLIT (TMR2CN.3) is zero, Timer 2 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 2 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, SmaRTClock divided by 8, or Comparator 0 output. As the
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 2
reload registers (TMR2RLH and TMR2RLL) is loaded into the Timer 2 register as shown in Figure 33.4,
and the Timer 2 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR2CN.7) is set. If Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (if IE.5 is
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 2 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 2 interrupts are enabled
and the TF2LEN bit is set (TMR2CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR2L)
overflow fro m 0xFF to 0x00.

33.2.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T2SPLIT is set, Timer 2 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR2H and TMR2L). Both 8-bit timers oper-
ate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 33.5. TMR2RLL holds the reload value for TMR2L; TMR2RLH
holds the reload value for TMR2H. The TR2 bit in TMR2CN handles the run control for TMR2H. TMR2L is
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode .
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, SmaRTClock divided by 8 or
Comparator 0 output. The T imer 2 Clock Select bits (T2MH and T2ML in CKCON) select either SYSCLK or
the clock defined by the Timer 2 External Clock Select bit s (T2XCLK[1:0] in TMR2CN), as follows:
The TF2H bit is set when TMR2H overflows from 0xFF to 0x00; the TF2L bit is set when TMR2L overflows
from 0xFF to 0x00. When Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (IE.5), an interrupt is generated each time
TMR2H ov er flo w s. I f Timer 2 interrup ts are enabled and TF2LEN (TMR2CN.5 ) is se t, a n inte rr upt is g ener -
ated each time either TMR2L or TMR2H overflows. When TF2LEN is enabled, software must check the
TF2H and TF 2L fl ags to de termine the so urce of th e Timer 2 interrupt. The TF2H and TF2L interrupt flags
are not cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

33.2.3. Comparator 0/SmaRTClock Capture Mode
The Capture Mode in Timer 2 allows either Comparator 0 or the SmaRTClock period to be measured
against the system clock or the system clock divided by 12. Comparator 0 and the SmaR TClock period can
also be compared against each other. Timer 2 Capture Mode is enabled by setting TF2CEN to 1. Timer 2
should be in 16-bit auto-reload mode when using Capture Mode.

When Capture Mode is enabled, a capture event will be generated either every Comparator 0 rising edge
or every 8 SmaR TClock cl ock cycles, dep ending on th e T2XCLK1 setting. When the capture event occurs,
the contents of Timer 2 (TMR2H:TMR2L) are loaded into the Timer 2 reload registers
(TMR2RLH:TMR2RLL) and the TF2H flag is set (triggering an interrupt if Timer 2 interr upts are enabled) .
By recording the difference between two successive timer capture values, the Comparator 0 or SmaRT-
Clock period can be determined with resp ect to the T ime r 2 clock. The T imer 2 clock should be much faster
than the capture clock to achieve an accurate reading.
For example, if T2ML = 1b, T2XCLK1 = 0b, and TF2C EN = 1b, Timer 2 will clock every SYSCLK and cap-
ture every SmaRTClock clock divided by 8. If the SYSCLK is 24.5 MHz and the difference between two
successive captures is 5984, then the SmaRTClock clock is as follows:
24.5 MHz/(5984/8) = 0.032754 MHz or 32.754 kHz.
This mode allows software to determine the exact SmaRTClock frequency in self-oscillate mode and the
time between co nsecutiv e Comparator 0 rising edges, which is useful for detecting changes in the capaci-
tance of a Touch Sense Switch.

33.3. Timer 3
Timer 3 is a 16-bit timer fo rmed by two 8- bit SFRs: TMR3L ( low byte) and TMR3H ( high byte). Timer 3 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T3SPLIT bit (TMR2CN.3) defines
the Timer 3 operation mode. Timer 3 can also be used in Capture Mode to measure the external oscillator
source or the SmaRTClock oscillator period with respect to another oscillator.
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, external oscillator source
divided by 8, or the SmaRTClock oscillator. The external oscillator source divided by 8 and SmaRTClock
oscillator is synchronized with the system clock.
33.3.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T3SPLIT (TMR3CN.3) is zero, Timer 3 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 3 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, external oscillator clock source divided by 8, or SmaRTClock
oscillator. As the 16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in
the Timer 3 reload registers (TMR3RLH and TMR3RLL) is loaded into the Timer 3 register as shown in
Figure 33.7, and the Timer 3 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR3CN.7) is set. If Ti mer 3 inter rupts are enabled
(if EIE1.7 is set), an interrupt will be generated on each Time r 3 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 3 interrupts
are enabled and the TF3LEN bit is set (TMR3CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8
bits (TMR3L) overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

33.3.2. 8-Bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T3SPLIT is s et, Time r 3 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR3H and TMR3L). Both 8-bit timers oper-
ate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 33.8. TMR3RLL holds the reload value for TMR3L; TMR3RLH
holds the reload value for TMR3H. The TR3 bit in TMR3CN handles the run control for TMR3H. TMR3L is
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode .
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, the external oscillator clock
source divided by 8, or the SmaRTClock. The Timer 3 Clock Select bits (T3MH and T3ML in CKCON)
select either SYSCLK or the clock defined by the Timer 3 External Clock Select bits (T3XCLK[1:0] in
TMR3CN), as follows:
The TF3H bit is set when TMR3H overflows from 0xFF to 0x00; the TF3L bit is set when TMR3L overflows
from 0xFF to 0x00. When Timer 3 interrupt s are ena bled, an interrupt is gene rated each time TMR3H over -
flows. If Timer 3 interrupts are enabled and TF3LEN (TMR3CN.5) is set, an interrupt is generated each
time either TMR3L or TMR3H overflows. When TF3LEN is enabled, software must check the TF3H and
TF3L flags to determine the source of the Timer 3 interrupt. The TF3H and TF3L interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

Setting TF3CEN to 1 enables the Sma RTClo ck/External Oscillator Captur e Mode for T ime r 3. In this mode,
T3SPLIT should be set to 0, as the full 16-bit timer is used.
When Capture Mode is enabled, a capture event will be generated either every SmaRTClock rising edge
or every 8 external clock cycles, depending on the T3XCLK1 setting. When the capture event occurs, the
contents of Timer 3 (TMR3H:TMR3L) are loaded into the Timer 3 reload registers (TMR3RLH:TMR3RLL)
and the TF3H flag is set (triggering an interrupt if Timer 3 interrupts are enabled). By record ing the differ-
ence between two successive timer capture values, the SmaRTClock or external clock period can be
determined with respect to the Timer 3 clock. The Timer 3 clock should be much faster than the capture
clock to achieve an accurate reading.
For example, if T3ML = 1b, T3XCLK1 = 0b, and TF3C EN = 1b, Timer 3 will clock every SYSCLK and cap-
ture every SmaRTClock rising edge. If SYSCLK is 24.5 MHz and the difference between two successive
captures is 350 counts, then the SmaRTClock period is as follows:
350 x (1 / 24.5 MHz) = 14.2 µs.
This mode allows software to determine the exact frequency of the external oscillator in C and RC mode or
the time between consecutive SmaRTClock rising edges, which is useful for determining the SmaRTClock
frequency.

34. Programmable Counter Array
The Programmable Counter Array (PCA0) provides enhanced timer functionality while requiring less CPU
intervention than the standard 8051 counter/timers. The PCA consists of a dedicated 16-bit counter/timer
and six 16-bit capture/compare modules. Each capture/compare module has its own associated I/O line
(CEXn) which is routed through the Crossbar to Port I/O when enabled. The counter/timer is driven by a
programmable timebase that can select between seven sources: system clock, system clock divided by
four, system clock divided by twelve, the external oscillator clock source divided by 8, SmaRTClock divided
by 8, Timer 0 overflows, or an external clock signal on the ECI input pin. Each capture/compare module
may be configured to ope rate independ ently in one of six modes: Ed ge-T ri ggered Captur e, Soft ware T i mer,
High-Speed Output, Frequency Output, 8 to 11-Bit PWM, or 16-Bit PWM (each mode is described in Sec-
tion “34.3. Ca pture/Compare Module s” on page 516). The external oscillator clock option is ideal for real-
time clock (RTC) functionality, allowing the PCA to be clocked by a precision external oscillator while the
internal oscillator drives the system clock. The PCA is configured and controlled through the system con-
troller's Special Function Registers. The PCA block diagram is shown in Figure 34.1
Import ant Note: The PCA Module 5 may be used as a watchdog timer (WDT), and is enabled in this mode
following a system reset. Access to certain PCA registers is restricted while WDT mode is enabled.
See Section 34.4 for details.

34.1. PCA Counter/Timer
The 16-bit PCA counter/timer consists of two 8-bit SFRs: PCA0L and PCA0H. PCA0H is the high byte
(MSB) of the 16-bit counter/timer and PCA0L is the low byte (LSB). Reading PCA0L automatically latches
the value of PCA0H into a “snapshot” register; the following PCA0H read accesses this “snapshot” register .
Reading the PCA0L Regist er first guaran tees an a ccurate read ing of the e ntire 16-bit PCA0 counter.
Reading PCA0H or PCA0L does not disturb the counter operation. The CPS2CPS0 bits in the PCA0MD
register select the timebase for the counter/timer as shown in Table 34.1.
When the counter/timer overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the Counter Overflow Flag (CF) in PCA0MD is
set to logic 1 and an interrupt request is generated if CF interrupts are enabled. Setting the ECF bit in
PCA0MD to logic 1 enables the CF flag to generate an interrupt request. The CF bit is not automatically
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by soft-
ware. Clearing the CIDL bit in the PCA0MD register allows the PCA to continue normal operation while the
CPU is in Idle mode. Table 34.1. PCA Timebase Input Options

34.2. PCA0 Interrupt Sources
Figure 34.3 shows a diagram of the PCA interrupt tree. There are eight independent event flags that can
be used to generate a PCA0 interrupt. They are: the main PCA counter overflow flag (CF), which is set
upon a 16-bit overflow of the PCA0 cou nter, an intermediate overflow flag (COVF), wh ich can be set on an
overflow from the 8th, 9th, 10th, or 11th bit of the PCA0 counter, and the individual flags for each PCA
channel (CCF0, CCF1, CCF2, CCF3, CCF4, and CCF5), which are set according to the opera tion mod e of
that module. These event flags are always set when the trigger condition occurs. Each of these flags can
be individually selected to generate a PCA0 interrupt, using the corresponding interrupt enable flag (ECF
for CF, ECOV for COVF, and ECCFn for each CCFn). PCA0 interrupts must be globally enabled befor e any
individual interrupt sources are recognized by the processor. PCA0 interrupts are globally enabled by set-
ting the EA bit and the EPCA0 bit to logic 1.

34.3. Capture/Compare Modules
Each module can be configured to operate independently in one of six operation modes: edge-triggered
capture, software timer, high speed output, frequency output, 8 to 11-bit pulse width modulator, or 16-bit
pulse width modulator. Each module has Special Function Registers (SFRs) associated with it in the CIP-
51 system controller. Th ese register s are used to exchange data with a module and configure th e module's
mode of operation. Table 34.2 summarizes the bit settings in the PCA0CPMn and PCA0PWM registers
used to sele ct the PCA captu re/compare module’s operating mode. Note that all modules set to use 8, 9,
10, or 11-bit PWM mode must use the same cycle length (8-11 bits). Setting the ECCFn bit in a
PCA0CPMn register enables the module's CCFn interrupt.

34.3.1. Edge-triggered Capture Mode
In this mode, a valid transition on the CEXn pin causes the PCA to capture the value of the PCA coun-
ter/timer and load it into the corresponding module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPLn and
PCA0CPHn). The CAPPn and CAPNn bits in the PCA0CPMn registe r ar e us ed to sele ct th e type o f tran si-
tion that triggers the capture: low-to-high transition (positive edge), high-to-low transition (negative edge),
or either transition (positive or negative edge). When a capture occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn)
in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is
enabled. The CCFn bit is not autom atically cleared by har dware when the CPU vector s to the interrupt ser-
vice routine, and must be cleared by software. If both CAPPn and CAPNn bits are set to logic 1, then the
state of the Port pin associated with CEXn can be read directly to determine whether a rising-edge or fall-
ing-edge caused the capture.

3. B = Enable 8th, 9th, 10th or 11th bit overflow interrupt (Depends on setting of CLSEL[1:0]).
4. C = When set to 0, the digital comparator is off. For high speed and frequency output modes, the
associated pin will not toggle. In any of the PWM modes, this generates a 0% duty cycle (output = 0).
5. D = Selects whether the Capture /Compare register (0) or the Auto-Reload register (1) for the associated
channel is accessed via addresses PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn.
6. E = When set, a ma tch event will cause the CCFn flag for the associated channel to be set.
7. All modules set to 8, 9, 10 or 11-bit PWM mode use the same cycle length setting.

Note: The CEXn input signal must remai n high or low for at least 2 system clock cycles to be recognized by the
hardware.
34.3.2. Software Timer (Compare) Mode
In Softwa re Timer mode, the PCA counter/timer value is compared to the module's 16-bit ca pture /co mpare
register (PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in
PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is
enabled. The CCFn bit is not autom atically cleared by har dware when the CPU vector s to the interrupt ser-
vice routine, and must be cleared b y sof t ware. Settin g the ECOMn and MATn bits in the PCA0CPMn r egis -
ter enables Software Timer mode.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

34.3.3. High-Speed Output Mode
In High-Speed Output mode, a module’s associated CEXn pin is toggled each time a match occurs
between the PCA Counter and the module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPHn and
PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An
interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is enabled. The CCFn bit is not auto-
matically clear ed by ha rdware wh en the C PU vector s to the in terrupt se rvice ro utine, a nd must be cleared
by software. Setting the TOGn, MATn, and ECOMn bits in the PCA0CPMn register enables the High-
Speed Output mode. If ECOMn is cleared, the associated pin will retain its state, and not toggle on the next
match event.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

34.3.4. Frequency Output Mode
Frequency Output Mode produces a programmable-frequency square wave on the module’s associated
CEXn pin. The capture/compare module high byte holds the number of PCA clocks to count before the out-
put is toggled. The frequency of the square wave is then defined by Equation 34.1.
Equation 34.1. Square Wave Frequency Output
Where FPCA is the frequency of the clock selected by the CPS20 bits in the PCA mode register,
PCA0MD. The lower byte of the capture/compare module is compared to the PCA counter low byte; on a
match, CEXn is toggled and the offset held in the high byte is added to the mat ched value in PCA0CP Ln.
Frequency Output Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, TOGn, and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn reg-
ister. The MATn bit should normally be set to 0 in this mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for
the channel will be set when the 16-bit PCA0 counter and the 16-bit capture/compare register for the chan-
nel are equal.

34.3.5. 8-Bit, 9-Bit, 10-Bit and 11-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Modes
Each module can be u sed inde pe ndently to gen er ate a pulse width modulated (PWM) output on its associ-
ated CEXn pin. The frequency of the output is dependent on the timebase for the PCA counter/timer, and
the setting of the PWM cycle length (8, 9, 10 or 11-bits). For backwards-compatibility with the 8-bit PWM
mode available on other devices, the 8-bit PWM mode operates slightly different than 9, 10 and 11-bit
PWM modes. It is important to note that all channels configured for 8/9/10/11-bit PWM mode will us e
the same cycle leng th. It is not possible to configure on e channel for 8- bit PWM mode and a nother for 11-
bit mode (for exam p l e). Ho wever, other PCA chan ne ls ca n b e co nfig u red to Pi n Ca ptu re, Hig h -Speed Out-
put, Software Timer, Frequency Output, or 16-bit PWM mode independently.
34.3.5.1. 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal in 8-bit PWM mode is varied using the module's PCA0CPLn cap-
ture/compare register. When the value in the low byte of the PCA counter/timer (PCA0L) is equal to the
value in PCA0CPLn, the output on th e CEXn pin will be set. When the count value in PCA0L overflows, the
CEXn output will be reset (see Figure 34.8). Also, when the counter/timer low byte (PCA0L) overflows from
0xFF to 0x00, PCA0CPLn is reloaded automatically with the value stored in the module’s capture/compare
high byte (PCA0CPHn) without software intervention. Setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the
PCA0CPMn register, and setting the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM to 00b enables 8-Bit Pulse Width
Modulator mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each time an 8-bit
comparator match (r ising edge) occurs. The COVF flag in PCA0PWM can be used to de tect the overflow
(falling edge), which will occur every 256 PCA clock cycles. The duty cycle for 8-Bit PWM Mode is given in
Equation 34.2.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.
Equation 34.2. 8-Bit PWM Duty Cycle
Using Equation 34.2, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPHn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is
0.39% (PCA0CPHn = 0xFF). A 0% duty cycle may be generated by clearing the ECOMn bit to 0.

34.3.5.2. 9/10/11-bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
The duty cycle of the PWM outp ut signa l in 9/10/11-bit PWM mode should be vari ed by writin g to an “Auto-
Reload” Register, which is dual-mapped into the PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn register locations. The data
written to define the duty cycle should be right-justified in the registers. The auto-reload registers are
accessed (read or written) when the bit ARSEL in PCA0PWM is set to 1. The capture/compare registers
are accessed when ARSEL is set to 0.
When the least-significant N bits of the PCA0 counter match the value in the associated module’s cap-
ture/compare register (PCA0CPn), the output on CEXn is asserted high. When th e counter over flo ws fr om
the Nth bit, CEXn is asserted low (see Figure 34.9). Upon an overflo w from the Nth bit, the COVF flag is
set, and the value stored in the module’s auto-reload register is loaded into the capture/compare register.
The value of N is determined by the CLS E L bits in register PC A0PWM .
The 9, 10 or 11-bit PWM mode is selected by setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn regis-
ter, and setting the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM to the desired cycle length (other than 8-bits). If the
MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each time a comparator match (rising edge)
occurs. The COVF flag in PCA0PWM can be used to detect the overflow (falling edge), which will occur
every 512 (9-bit), 1024 (10-bit) or 2048 (11-bit) PCA clock cycles. The duty cycle for 9/10/11-Bit PWM
Mode is given in Equation 34.3, where N is the number of bits in the PWM cycle.
Important Note About PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the
PCA0CPn registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the ECOMn
bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

(8/9/10/11-bit) PWM modes. In this mode, the 16-bit capture/compare module defines the number of PCA
clocks for the low time of the PWM signal. When the PCA counter matches the module contents, the out-
put on CEXn is asserted high; when the 16-bit counter overflows, CEXn is asserted low. To output a vary-
ing duty cycle, new value writes should be synchronized with PCA CCFn match interrupts. 16-Bit PWM
Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, PWMn, and PWM16n bits in the PCA0CPMn register. For a vary-
ing duty cycle, match interrupts should be enabled (ECCFn = 1 AND MATn = 1) to help synchronize the
capture/compare register writes. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each
time a 16-bit comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The CF flag in PCA0CN can be used to detect the
overflow (falling edge). The duty cycle for 16-Bit PWM Mode is given by Equation 34.4.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.
Equation 34.4. 16-Bit PWM Duty Cycle
Using Equation 34.4, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is
0.0015% (PCA0CPn = 0xFFFF). A 0% duty cycle may be generated by clearing the ECOMn bi t to 0.

Figure 34.10. PCA 16-Bit PWM Mode
34.4. Watchdog Timer Mode
A programmable wa tchdog timer (WDT) function is avail able throu gh the PCA Module 5. The WDT is used
to generate a reset if the time between writes to the WDT up date register (P CA0CPH2 ) exceed a specified
limit. The WDT can be configured and enabled/disabled as needed by software.
With the WDTE bit set in the PCA0MD register, Module 5 operates as a watchdog timer (WDT). The Mod-
ule 5 high byte is compared to the PCA counter high byte; the Module 5 low byte holds the offset to be
used when WDT updates are performed. The Watchdog Timer is enabled on reset. Writes to some
PCA registers are restricted while the Watchdog Timer is enabled. The WDT will generate a reset
shortly after code begins execution. To avoid this reset, the WDT should be explicitly disabled (and option-
ally re-configured and re-enabled if it is used in the system).
34.4.1. Watchdog Timer Operation
While the WDT is enabled:
PCA counter is forced on.
Writes to PCA0L and PCA0H are not allowed.
PCA clock source bits (CPS2CPS0) are frozen.
PCA Idle control bit (CIDL) is frozen.
Module 5 is forced into software timer mode.
Writes to the Module 5 mode register (PCA0CPM5) are disabled.
While the WDT is enabled, writes to the CR bit will not change the PCA counter state; the counter will run
until the WDT is disabled. The PCA counter run control bit (CR) will read zero if the WDT is enabled but
user software has not enabled the PCA counter. If a match occurs between PCA0CPH5 and PCA0H while
the WDT is enabled, a reset will be generated. To prevent a WDT reset, the WDT may be updated with a
write of any value to PCA0CPH5. Upon a PCA0CPH5 write, PCA0H plus the offset held in PCA0CPL5 is
loaded into PCA0CPH5. (See Figure 34.11.)

Figure 34.11. PCA Module 5 with Watchdog Timer Enabled
Note that the 8-bit offset held in PCA0CPH5 is compared to the upper byte of the 16-bit PCA counter. This
offset value is the number of PCA0L overflows before a reset. Up to 256 PCA clocks may pass before the
first PCA0L overflow occurs, depending on the value of the PCA0L when the update is performed. The
total offset is then given (in PCA clocks) by Equation 34.5, where PCA0L is the value of the PCA0L register
at the time of the update.
Equation 34.5. Watchdog Timer Offset in PCA Clocks
The WDT reset is generated when PCA0L overflows while there is a match between PCA0CPH5 and
PCA0H. Software may force a WDT reset by writing a 1 to the CCF5 flag (PCA0CN.5) while the WDT is
enabled.
34.4.2. Watchdog Timer Usage
To configure the WDT, perform the following tasks:
Disable the WDT by writing a 0 to the WDTE bit.
Select the desired PCA clock source (with the CPS2CPS0 bits).
Load PCA0CPL5 with the desired WDT update offset value.
Configure the PCA Idle mode (set CIDL if the WDT should be suspended while the CPU is in Idle
mode).
Enable the WDT by setting the WDTE bit to 1.
Reset the WDT timer by writing to PCA0CPH5.
The PCA clock source and idle mode select cannot be changed while the WDT is enabled. The watchdog
timer is enabled by setting the WDTE or WDLCK bits in the PCA0MD register. When WDLCK is set, the
WDT cannot be disabled until the next system reset. If WDLCK is not set, the WDT is disabled by clearing
the WDTE bit.
The WDT is enabled following any reset. The PCA0 counter clock defaults to the system clock divided by
12, PCA0L defaults to 0x00, and PCA0CPL5 defaults to 0x00. Using Equation 34.5, this results in a WDT
timeout interval of 256 PCA clock cycles, or 3072 system clock cycles. Table 34.3 lists some example time-
out intervals for typical system clocks.

uses a clock signal (C2CK) and a bi-directional C2 data signal (C2D) to transfer info rmation between the
device and a host sys te m. See th e C2 In te rfa ce Specification for details on the C2 pr ot oco l.

35.2. C2 Pin Sharing
The C2 protocol allows the C2 pins to be shared with user functions so that in-system debugging and
Flash programming may be performed. This is possible because C2 communication is typically performed
when the device is in the halt state, where all on-chip peripherals and user software are stalled. In this
halted state, the C2 interface can safely “borrow” the C2CK (RST) and C2D pins. In most applications,
external resistors are required to isolate C2 interface traffic from the user application. A typical isolation
configuration is shown in Figure 35.1.
Figure 35.1. Typical C2 Pin Sharing
The configuration in Figure 35.1 assumes the following:
1. The user input (b) cannot change state while the target device is halted.
2. The RST pin on the target device is used as an input only.
Additional resistors may be necessary depending on the specific application.
