1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The C8051F12x devices are fully integrated mixed-signal System-on-a-Chip MCUs with 64 digital I/O pins
(C8051F120/2/4/6) or 32 digital I/O pins (C8051F121/3/5/7). Highlighted features are listed below; refer to Table 1.1
for specific product feature selection.
• High-Speed pipelined 8051-compatible CIP-51 microcontroller core (up to 100 MIPS for C8051F120/1/2/3 and
50 MIPS for C8051F124/5/6/7)
• In-system, full-speed, non-intrusive debug interface (on-chip)
• True 12-bit (C8051F120/1/4/5) or 10-bit (C8051F122/3/6/7) 100 ksps ADC with PGA and 8-channel analog
multiplexer
• True 8-bit 500 ksps ADC with PGA and 8-channel analog multiplexer
• Two 12-bit DACs with programmable update scheduling
• 2-cycle 16 by 16 Multiply and Accumulate Engine (C8051F120/1/2/3)
• 128k bytes of in-system programmable FLASH memory
• 8448 (8k + 256) bytes of on-chip RAM
• External Data Memory Interface with 64k byte address space
• SPI, SMBus/I2C, and (2) UART serial interfaces implemented in hardware
• Five general purpose 16-bit Timers
• Programmable Counter/Timer Array with 6 capture/compare modules
• On-chip Watchdog Timer, VDD Monitor, and Temperature Sensor
With on-chip VDD monitor, Watchdog Timer, and clock oscillator, the C8051F12x devices are truly stand-alone Sys-
tem-on-a-Chip solutions. All analog and digital peripherals are enabled/disabled and configured by user firmware.
The FLASH memory can be reprogrammed even in-circuit, providing non-volatile data storage, and also allowing
field upgrades of the 8051 firmware.
On-board JTAG debug circuitry allows non-intrusive (uses no on-chip resources), full speed, in-circuit debugging
using the production MCU installed in the final application. This debug system supports inspection and modification
of memory and registers, setting breakpoints, watchpoints, single stepping, run and halt commands. All analog and
digital peripherals are fully functional while debugging using JTAG.
Each MCU is specified for operation over the industrial temperature range (-45° C to +85° C). The Port I/Os, /RST,
and JTAG pins are tolerant for input signals up to 5 V. The C8051F120/2/4/6 are available in a 100-pin TQFP pack-
age (see block diagrams in Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.3). The C8051F121/3/5/7 are available in a 64-pin TQFP package
(see block diagrams in Figure 1.2 and Figure 1.4).

1.1. CIP-51™ Microcontroller Core
1.1.1. Fully 8051 Compatible
The C8051F12x family utilizes Cygnal's proprietary CIP-51 microcontroller core. The CIP-51 is fully compatible
with the MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to develop software.
The core has all the peripherals included with a standard 8052, including five 16-bit counter/timers, two full-duplex
UARTs, 256 bytes of internal RAM, 128 byte Special Function Register (SFR) address space, and 8/4 byte-wide I/O
Ports.
1.1.2. Improved Throughput
The CIP-51 employs a pipelined architecture that greatly increases its instruction throughput over the standard 8051
architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24 system clock cycles to exe-
cute with a maximum system clock of 12-to-24 MHz. By contrast, the CIP-51 core executes 70% of its instructions in
one or two system clock 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 100 MHz, the C8051F120/1/2/3 have a peak throughput of 100 MIPS
(the C8051F124/5/6/7 have a peak throughput of 50 MIPS).

1.1.3. Additional Features
The C8051F12x MCU family includes several key enhancements to the CIP-51 core and peripherals to improve over-
all performance and ease of use in end applications.
The extended interrupt handler provides 20 interrupt sources into the CIP-51 (as opposed to 7 for the standard 8051),
allowing the numerous analog and digital peripherals to interrupt the controller. An interrupt driven system requires
less intervention by the MCU, giving it more effective throughput. The extra interrupt sources are very useful when
building multi-tasking, real-time systems.
There are up to seven reset sources for the MCU: an on-board VDD monitor, a Watchdog Timer, a missing clock
detector, a voltage level detection from Comparator0, a forced software reset, the CNVSTR0 input pin, and the /RST
pin. The /RST pin is bi-directional, accommodating an external reset, or allowing the internally generated POR to be
output on the /RST pin. Each reset source except for the VDD monitor and Reset Input pin may be disabled by the
user in software; the VDD monitor is enabled/disabled via the MONEN pin. The Watchdog Timer may be perma-
nently enabled in software after a power-on reset during MCU initialization.
The MCU has an internal, stand alone clock generator which is used by default as the system clock after any reset. If
desired, the clock source may be switched on the fly to the external oscillator, which can use a crystal, ceramic reso-
nator, capacitor, RC, or external clock source to generate the system clock. This can be extremely useful in low power
applications, allowing the MCU to run from a slow (power saving) external crystal source, while periodically switch-
ing to the 24.5 MHz internal oscillator as needed. Additionally, an on-chip PLL is provided to achieve higher system
clock speeds for increased throughput.

1.2. On-Chip Memory
The CIP-51 has a standard 8051 program and data address configuration. It includes 256 bytes of data RAM, with the
upper 128 bytes dual-mapped. Indirect addressing accesses the upper 128 bytes of general purpose RAM, and direct
addressing accesses the 128 byte SFR address space. The lower 128 bytes of RAM are accessible via direct and indi-
rect addressing. The first 32 bytes are addressable as four banks of general purpose registers, and the next 16 bytes
can be byte addressable or bit addressable.
The CIP-51 in the C8051F12x MCUs additionally has an on-chip 8k byte RAM block and an external memory inter-
face (EMIF) for accessing off-chip data memory. The on-chip 8k byte block can be addressed over the entire 64k
external data memory address range (overlapping 8k boundaries). External data memory address space can be
mapped to on-chip memory only, off-chip memory only, or a combination of the two (addresses up to 8k directed to
on-chip, above 8k directed to EMIF). The EMIF is also configurable for multiplexed or non-multiplexed address/data
lines.
The MCU’s program memory consists of 128k bytes of banked FLASH memory. This memory may be repro-
grammed in-system in 1024 byte sectors, and requires no special off-chip programming voltage. The 1024 bytes from
addresses 0x1FC00 to 0x1FFFF are reserved. There are also two 128 byte sectors at addresses 0x20000 to 0x200FF,
which may be used by software. See Figure 1.6 for the MCU system memory map.

1.3. JTAG Debug and Boundary Scan
The C8051F12x device family has on-chip JTAG boundary scan and debug circuitry that provides non-intrusive, full
speed, in-circuit debugging using the production part installed in the end application, via the four-pin JTAG inter-
face. The JTAG port is fully compliant to IEEE 1149.1, providing full boundary scan for test and manufacturing pur-
poses.
Cygnal's debugging system supports inspection and modification of memory and registers, breakpoints, watchpoints,
a stack monitor, and single stepping. No additional target RAM, program memory, timers, or communications chan-
nels are required. All the digital and analog peripherals are functional and work correctly while debugging. All the
peripherals (except for the ADC and SMBus) are stalled when the MCU is halted, during single stepping, or at a
breakpoint in order to keep them synchronized.
The C8051F120DK development kit provides all the hardware and software necessary to develop application code
and perform in-circuit debugging with the C8051F12x MCUs. The kit includes software with a developer's studio and
debugger, an integrated 8051 assembler, and an RS-232 to JTAG serial adapter. It also has a target application board
with the associated MCU installed, plus the RS-232 and JTAG cables, and wall-mount power supply. The Develop-
ment Kit requires a Windows 95/98/NT/ME computer with one available RS-232 serial port. As shown in Figure 1.7,
the PC is connected via RS-232 to the Serial Adapter. A six-inch ribbon cable connects the Serial Adapter to the
user's application board, picking up the four JTAG pins and VDD and GND. The Serial Adapter takes its power from
the application board. For applications where there is not sufficient power available from the target system, the pro-
vided power supply can be connected directly to the Serial Adapter.
Cygnal’s debug environment is a vastly superior configuration for developing and debugging embedded applications
compared to standard MCU emulators, which use on-board "ICE Chips" and target cables and require the MCU in the
application board to be socketed. Cygnal's debug environment both increases ease of use and preserves the perfor-
mance of the precision analog peripherals.

1.4. 16 x 16 MAC (Multiply and Accumulate) Engine
The C8051F120/1/2/3 devices include a multiply and accumulate engine which can be used to speed up many mathe-
matical operations. MAC0 contains a 16-by-16 bit multiplier and a 40-bit adder, which can perform integer or frac-
tional multiply-accumulate and multiply operations on signed input values in two SYSCLK cycles. A rounding
engine provides a rounded 16-bit fractional result after an additional (third) SYSCLK cycle. MAC0 also contains a 1-
bit arithmetic shifter that will left or right-shift the contents of the 40-bit accumulator in a single SYSCLK cycle.

1.5. Programmable Digital I/O and Crossbar
The standard 8051 Ports (0, 1, 2, and 3) are available on the MCUs. The C8051F120/2/4/6 have 4 additional ports (4,
5, 6, and 7) for a total of 64 general-purpose port I/O. The Port I/O behave like the standard 8051 with a few enhance-
ments.
Each Port I/O pin can be configured as either a push-pull or open-drain output. Also, the "weak pull-ups" which are
normally fixed on an 8051 can be globally disabled, providing additional power saving capabilities for low-power
applications.
Perhaps the most unique enhancement is the Digital Crossbar. This is a large digital switching network that allows
mapping of internal digital system resources to Port I/O pins on P0, P1, P2, and P3. (See Figure 1.9) Unlike micro-
controllers with standard multiplexed digital I/O, all combinations of functions are supported.
The on-chip counter/timers, serial buses, HW interrupts, ADC Start of Conversion inputs, comparator outputs, and
other digital signals in the controller can be configured to appear on the Port I/O pins specified in the Crossbar Con-
trol registers. This allows the user to select the exact mix of general purpose Port I/O and digital resources needed for
the particular application.

1.6. Programmable Counter Array
The C8051F12x MCU family includes an on-board Programmable Counter/Timer Array (PCA) in addition to the five
16-bit general purpose counter/timers. The PCA consists of a dedicated 16-bit counter/timer time base with 6 pro-
grammable capture/compare modules. The timebase is clocked from one of six sources: the system clock divided by
12, the system clock divided by 4, Timer 0 overflow, an External Clock Input (ECI pin), the system clock, or the
external oscillator source divided by 8.
Each capture/compare module can be configured to operate in one of six modes: Edge-Triggered Capture, Software
Timer, High Speed Output, Frequency Output, 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator, or 16-Bit Pulse Width Modulator. The
PCA Capture/Compare Module I/O and External Clock Input are routed to the MCU Port I/O via the Digital Cross-
bar.

1.7. Serial Ports
The C8051F12x MCU Family includes two Enhanced Full-Duplex UARTs, SPI Bus, and SMBus/I
2C. Each of the
serial buses is fully implemented in hardware and makes extensive use of the CIP-51's interrupts, thus requiring very
little intervention by the CPU. The serial buses do not "share" resources such as timers, interrupts, or Port I/O, so any
or all of the serial buses may be used together with any other.

1.8. 12-Bit Analog to Digital Converter
The C8051F120/1/4/5 have an on-chip 12-bit SAR ADC (ADC0) with a 9-channel input multiplexer and programma-
ble gain amplifier. With a maximum throughput of 100 ksps, the ADC offers true 12-bit linearity with an INL of
±1LSB. C8051F122/3/6/7 devices include a 10-bit SAR ADC with similar specifications and configuration options.
The ADC0 voltage reference is selected between the DAC0 output and an external VREF pin. On C8051F120/2/4/6
devices, ADC0 has its own dedicated VREF0 input pin; on C8051F121/3/5/7 devices, the ADC0 shares the VREFA
input pin with the 8-bit ADC2. The on-chip 15 ppm/°C voltage reference may generate the voltage reference for other
system components or the on-chip ADCs via the VREF output pin.
The ADC is under full control of the CIP-51 microcontroller via its associated Special Function Registers. One input
channel is tied to an internal temperature sensor, while the other eight channels are available externally. Each pair of
the eight external input channels can be configured as either two single-ended inputs or a single differential input.
The system controller can also put the ADC into shutdown mode to save power.
A programmable gain amplifier follows the analog multiplexer. The gain can be set in software from 0.5 to 16 in
powers of 2. The gain stage can be especially useful when different ADC input channels have widely varied input
voltage signals, or when it is necessary to "zoom in" on a signal with a large DC offset (in differential mode, a DAC
could be used to provide the DC offset).
Conversions can be started in four ways; a software command, an overflow of Timer 2, an overflow of Timer 3, or an
external signal input. This flexibility allows the start of conversion to be triggered by software events, external HW
signals, or a periodic timer overflow signal. Conversion completions are indicated by a status bit and an interrupt (if
enabled). The resulting 10 or 12-bit data word is latched into two SFRs upon completion of a conversion. The data
can be right or left justified in these registers under software control.
Window Compare registers for the ADC data can be configured to interrupt the controller when ADC data is within
or outside of a specified range. The ADC can monitor a key voltage continuously in background mode, but not inter-
rupt the controller unless the converted data is within the specified window.

1.9. 8-Bit Analog to Digital Converter
The C8051F12x Family have an on-board 8-bit SAR ADC (ADC2) with an 8-channel input multiplexer and pro-
grammable gain amplifier. This ADC features a 500 ksps maximum throughput and true 8-bit linearity with an INL of
±1LSB. Eight input pins are available for measurement. The ADC is under full control of the CIP-51 microcontroller
via the Special Function Registers. The ADC2 voltage reference is selected between the analog power supply (AV+)
and an external VREF pin. On C8051F120/2/4/6 devices, ADC2 has its own dedicated VREF2 input pin; on
C8051F121/3/5/7 devices, ADC2 shares the VREFA input pin with the 12/10-bit ADC0. User software may put
ADC2 into shutdown mode to save power.
A programmable gain amplifier follows the analog multiplexer. The gain stage can be especially useful when differ-
ent ADC input channels have widely varied input voltage signals, or when it is necessary to "zoom in" on a signal
with a large DC offset (in differential mode, a DAC could be used to provide the DC offset). The PGA gain can be set
in software to 0.5, 1, 2, or 4.
A flexible conversion scheduling system allows ADC2 conversions to be initiated by software commands, timer
overflows, or an external input signal. ADC2 conversions may also be synchronized with ADC0 software-com-
manded conversions. Conversion completions are indicated by a status bit and an interrupt (if enabled), and the
resulting 8-bit data word is latched into an SFR upon completion.

1.10. Comparators and DACs
Each C8051F12x MCU has two 12-bit DACs and two comparators on chip. The MCU data and control interface to
each comparator and DAC is via the Special Function Registers. The MCU can place any DAC or comparator in low
power shutdown mode.
The comparators have software programmable hysteresis and response time. The response time of the comparators
can be adjusted to minimize power consumption, or to maximize speed. Each comparator can generate an interrupt on
its rising edge, falling edge, or both; these interrupts are capable of waking up the MCU from sleep mode. The com-
parators' output state can also be polled in software. The comparator outputs can be programmed to appear on the Port
I/O pins via the Crossbar.
The DACs are voltage output mode, and include a flexible output scheduling mechanism. This scheduling mecha-
nism allows DAC output updates to be forced by a software write or a Timer 2, 3, or 4 overflow. The DAC voltage
reference is supplied via the dedicated VREFD input pin on C8051F120/2/4/6 devices or via the internal voltage ref-
erence on C8051F121/3/5/7 devices. The DACs are useful as references for the comparators or offsets for the differ-
ential inputs of the ADC.

5. ADC0 (12-BIT ADC, C8051F120/1/4/5 ONLY)
The ADC0 subsystem for the C8051F120/1/4/5 consists of a 9-channel, configurable analog multiplexer (AMUX0), a
programmable gain amplifier (PGA0), and a 100 ksps, 12-bit successive-approximation-register ADC with integrated
track-and-hold and Programmable Window Detector (see block diagram in Figure 5.1). The AMUX0, PGA0, Data
Conversion Modes, and Window Detector are all configurable under software control via the Special Function Regis-
ters shown in Figure 5.1. The voltage reference used by ADC0 is selected as described in Section “9. VOLTAGE
REFERENCE (C8051F120/2/4/6)” on page 107 for C8051F120/2/4/6 devices, or Section “10. VOLTAGE REF-
ERENCE (C8051F121/3/5/7)” on page 109 for C8051F121/3/5/7 devices. The ADC0 subsystem (ADC0, track-
and-hold and PGA0) is enabled only when the AD0EN bit in the ADC0 Control register (ADC0CN) is set to logic 1.
The ADC0 subsystem is in low power shutdown when this bit is logic 0.
5.1. Analog Multiplexer and PGA
Eight of the AMUX channels are available for external measurements while the ninth channel is internally connected
to an on-chip temperature sensor (temperature transfer function is shown in Figure 5.2). AMUX input pairs can be
programmed to operate in either differential or single-ended mode. This allows the user to select the best measure-
ment technique for each input channel, and even accommodates mode changes "on-the-fly". The AMUX defaults to
all single-ended inputs upon reset. There are two registers associated with the AMUX: the Channel Selection register
AMX0SL (Figure 5.6), and the Configuration register AMX0CF (Figure 5.5). The table in Figure 5.6 shows AMUX
functionality by channel, for each possible configuration. The PGA amplifies the AMUX output signal by an amount
determined by the states of the AMP0GN2-0 bits in the ADC0 Configuration register, ADC0CF (Figure 5.7). The
PGA can be software-programmed for gains of 0.5, 2, 4, 8 or 16. Gain defaults to unity on reset.

5.2. ADC Modes of Operation
ADC0 has a maximum conversion speed of 100 ksps. The ADC0 conversion clock is derived from the system clock
divided by the value held in the ADCSC bits of register ADC0CF.
5.2.1. Starting a Conversion
A conversion can be initiated in one of four ways, depending on the programmed states of the ADC0 Start of Conver-
sion Mode bits (AD0CM1, AD0CM0) in ADC0CN. Conversions may be initiated by:
1. Writing a ‘1’ to the AD0BUSY bit of ADC0CN;
2. A Timer 3 overflow (i.e. timed continuous conversions);
3. A rising edge detected on the external ADC convert start signal, CNVSTR0;
4. A Timer 2 overflow (i.e. timed continuous conversions).
The AD0BUSY bit is set to logic 1 during conversion and restored to logic 0 when conversion is complete. The fall-
ing edge of AD0BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the AD0INT interrupt flag (ADC0CN.5). Con-
verted data is available in the ADC0 data word MSB and LSB registers, ADC0H, ADC0L. Converted data can be
either left or right justified in the ADC0H:ADC0L register pair (see example in Figure 5.11) depending on the pro-
grammed state of the AD0LJST bit in the ADC0CN register.
When initiating conversions by writing a ‘1’ to AD0BUSY, the AD0INT bit should be polled to determine when a
conversion has completed (ADC0 interrupts may also be used). The recommended polling procedure is shown below.
Step 1. Write a ‘0’ to AD0INT;
Step 2. Write a ‘1’ to AD0BUSY;
Step 3. Poll AD0INT for ‘1’;
Step 4. Process ADC0 data.
When CNVSTR0 is used as a conversion start source, it must be enabled in the crossbar, and the corresponding pin
must be set to open-drain, high-impedance mode (see Section “19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT” on page 215 for more
details on Port I/O configuration).

C8051F124/5/6/7
5.2.2. Tracking Modes
The AD0TM bit in register ADC0CN controls the ADC0 track-and-hold mode. In its default state, the ADC0 input is
continuously tracked when a conversion is not 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 CNVSTR0 signal is used to initiate conversions in low-power tracking
mode, ADC0 tracks only when CNVSTR0 is low; conversion begins on the rising edge of CNVSTR0 (see
Figure 5.3). Tracking can also be disabled (shutdown) when the entire chip is in low power standby or sleep modes.
Low-power track-and-hold mode is also useful when AMUX or PGA settings are frequently changed, to ensure that
settling time requirements are met (see Section “5.2.3. Settling Time Requirements” on page 53).

5.2.3. Settling Time Requirements
When the ADC0 input configuration is changed (i.e., a different MUX or PGA selection is made), a minimum track-
ing time is required before an accurate conversion can be performed. This tracking time is determined by the ADC0
MUX resistance, the ADC0 sampling capacitance, any external source resistance, and the accuracy required for the
conversion. Figure 5.4 shows the equivalent ADC0 input circuits for both Differential and Single-ended modes.
Notice that the equivalent time constant for both input circuits is the same. The required settling time for a given set-
tling accuracy (SA) may be approximated by Equation 5.1. When measuring the Temperature Sensor output, RTOTAL
reduces to RMUX. An absolute minimum settling time of 1.5 µs is required after any MUX or PGA selection. Note
that in low-power tracking mode, three SAR clocks are used for tracking at the start of every conversion. For most
applications, these three SAR clocks will meet the tracking requirements.
Where:
SA is the settling accuracy, given as a fraction of an LSB (for example, 0.25 to settle within 1/4 LSB)
tis the required settling time in seconds
RTOTAL is the sum of the ADC0 MUX resistance and any external source resistance.
nis the ADC resolution in bits (12).

The SAR Conversion clock is derived from system clock by the following equation, where AD0SC
refers to the 5-bit value held in AD0SC4-0, and CLKSAR0 refers to the desired ADC0 SAR clock
(Note: the ADC0 SAR Conversion Clock should be less than or equal to 2.5 MHz).
When the AD0SC bits are equal to 00000b, the SAR Conversion clock is equal to SYSCLK to facili-
tate faster ADC conversions at slower SYSCLK speeds.

5.3. ADC0 Programmable Window Detector
The ADC0 Programmable Window Detector continuously compares the ADC0 output to user-programmed limits,
and notifies the system when an out-of-bound condition is detected. This is especially effective in an interrupt-driven
system, saving code space and CPU bandwidth while delivering faster system response times. The window detector
interrupt flag (AD0WINT in ADC0CN) can also be used in polled mode. The high and low bytes of the reference
words are loaded into the ADC0 Greater-Than and ADC0 Less-Than registers (ADC0GTH, ADC0GTL, ADC0LTH,
and ADC0LTL). Reference comparisons are shown starting on page 62. Notice that the window detector flag can be
asserted when the measured data is inside or outside the user-programmed limits, depending on the programming of
the ADC0GTx and ADC0LTx registers.

6. ADC0 (10-BIT ADC, C8051F122/3/6/7 ONLY)
The ADC0 subsystem for the C8051F122/3/6/7 consists of a 9-channel, configurable analog multiplexer (AMUX0), a
programmable gain amplifier (PGA0), and a 100 ksps, 10-bit successive-approximation-register ADC with integrated
track-and-hold and Programmable Window Detector (see block diagram in Figure 6.1). The AMUX0, PGA0, Data
Conversion Modes, and Window Detector are all configurable under software control via the Special Function Regis-
ters shown in Figure 6.1. The voltage reference used by ADC0 is selected as described in Section “9. VOLTAGE
REFERENCE (C8051F120/2/4/6)” on page 107 for C8051F120/2/4/6 devices, or Section “10. VOLTAGE REF-
ERENCE (C8051F121/3/5/7)” on page 109 for C8051F121/3/5/7 devices. The ADC0 subsystem (ADC0, track-
and-hold and PGA0) is enabled only when the AD0EN bit in the ADC0 Control register (ADC0CN) is set to logic 1.
The ADC0 subsystem is in low power shutdown when this bit is logic 0.
6.1. Analog Multiplexer and PGA
Eight of the AMUX channels are available for external measurements while the ninth channel is internally connected
to an on-chip temperature sensor (temperature transfer function is shown in Figure 6.2). AMUX input pairs can be
programmed to operate in either differential or single-ended mode. This allows the user to select the best measure-
ment technique for each input channel, and even accommodates mode changes "on-the-fly". The AMUX defaults to
all single-ended inputs upon reset. There are two registers associated with the AMUX: the Channel Selection register
AMX0SL (Figure 6.6), and the Configuration register AMX0CF (Figure 6.5). The table in Figure 6.6 shows AMUX
functionality by channel, for each possible configuration. The PGA amplifies the AMUX output signal by an amount
determined by the states of the AMP0GN2-0 bits in the ADC0 Configuration register, ADC0CF (Figure 6.7). The
PGA can be software-programmed for gains of 0.5, 2, 4, 8 or 16. Gain defaults to unity on reset.

6.2. ADC Modes of Operation
ADC0 has a maximum conversion speed of 100 ksps. The ADC0 conversion clock is derived from the system clock
divided by the value held in the ADCSC bits of register ADC0CF.
6.2.1. Starting a Conversion
A conversion can be initiated in one of four ways, depending on the programmed states of the ADC0 Start of Conver-
sion Mode bits (AD0CM1, AD0CM0) in ADC0CN. Conversions may be initiated by:
1. Writing a ‘1’ to the AD0BUSY bit of ADC0CN;
2. A Timer 3 overflow (i.e. timed continuous conversions);
3. A rising edge detected on the external ADC convert start signal, CNVSTR0;
4. A Timer 2 overflow (i.e. timed continuous conversions).
The AD0BUSY bit is set to logic 1 during conversion and restored to logic 0 when conversion is complete. The fall-
ing edge of AD0BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the AD0INT interrupt flag (ADC0CN.5). Con-
verted data is available in the ADC0 data word MSB and LSB registers, ADC0H, ADC0L. Converted data can be
either left or right justified in the ADC0H:ADC0L register pair (see example in Figure 6.11) depending on the pro-
grammed state of the AD0LJST bit in the ADC0CN register.
When initiating conversions by writing a ‘1’ to AD0BUSY, the AD0INT bit should be polled to determine when a
conversion has completed (ADC0 interrupts may also be used). The recommended polling procedure is shown below.
Step 1. Write a ‘0’ to AD0INT;
Step 2. Write a ‘1’ to AD0BUSY;
Step 3. Poll AD0INT for ‘1’;
Step 4. Process ADC0 data.
When CNVSTR0 is used as a conversion start source, it must be enabled in the crossbar, and the corresponding pin
must be set to open-drain, high-impedance mode (see Section “19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT” on page 215 for more
details on Port I/O configuration).

C8051F124/5/6/7
6.2.2. Tracking Modes
The AD0TM bit in register ADC0CN controls the ADC0 track-and-hold mode. In its default state, the ADC0 input is
continuously tracked when a conversion is not 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 CNVSTR0 signal is used to initiate conversions in low-power tracking
mode, ADC0 tracks only when CNVSTR0 is low; conversion begins on the rising edge of CNVSTR0 (see
Figure 6.3). Tracking can also be disabled (shutdown) when the entire chip is in low power standby or sleep modes.
Low-power track-and-hold mode is also useful when AMUX or PGA settings are frequently changed, to ensure that
settling time requirements are met (see Section “6.2.3. Settling Time Requirements” on page 71).

6.2.3. Settling Time Requirements
When the ADC0 input configuration is changed (i.e., a different MUX or PGA selection is made), a minimum track-
ing time is required before an accurate conversion can be performed. This tracking time is determined by the ADC0
MUX resistance, the ADC0 sampling capacitance, any external source resistance, and the accuracy required for the
conversion. Figure 6.4 shows the equivalent ADC0 input circuits for both Differential and Single-ended modes.
Notice that the equivalent time constant for both input circuits is the same. The required settling time for a given set-
tling accuracy (SA) may be approximated by Equation 6.1. When measuring the Temperature Sensor output, RTOTAL
reduces to RMUX. An absolute minimum settling time of 1.5 µs is required after any MUX or PGA selection. Note
that in low-power tracking mode, three SAR clocks are used for tracking at the start of every conversion. For most
applications, these three SAR clocks will meet the tracking requirements.
Where:
SA is the settling accuracy, given as a fraction of an LSB (for example, 0.25 to settle within 1/4 LSB)
tis the required settling time in seconds
RTOTAL is the sum of the ADC0 MUX resistance and any external source resistance.
nis the ADC resolution in bits (10).

6.3. ADC0 Programmable Window Detector
The ADC0 Programmable Window Detector continuously compares the ADC0 output to user-programmed limits,
and notifies the system when an out-of-bound condition is detected. This is especially effective in an interrupt-driven
system, saving code space and CPU bandwidth while delivering faster system response times. The window detector
interrupt flag (AD0WINT in ADC0CN) can also be used in polled mode. The high and low bytes of the reference
words are loaded into the ADC0 Greater-Than and ADC0 Less-Than registers (ADC0GTH, ADC0GTL, ADC0LTH,
and ADC0LTL). Reference comparisons are shown starting on page 80. Notice that the window detector flag can be
asserted when the measured data is inside or outside the user-programmed limits, depending on the programming of
the ADC0GTx and ADC0LTx registers.

7. ADC2 (8-BIT ADC)
The ADC2 subsystem for the C8051F120/1/2/3/4/5/6/7 consists of an 8-channel, configurable analog multiplexer
(AMUX2), a programmable gain amplifier (PGA2), and a 500 ksps, 8-bit successive-approximation-register ADC
with integrated track-and-hold (see block diagram in Figure 7.1). The AMUX2, PGA2, and Data Conversion Modes
are all configurable under software control via the Special Function Registers shown in Figure 7.1. The ADC2 sub-
system (8-bit ADC, track-and-hold and PGA) is enabled only when the AD2EN bit in the ADC2 Control register
(ADC2CN) is set to logic 1. The ADC2 subsystem is in low power shutdown when this bit is logic 0. The voltage ref-
erence used by ADC2 is selected as described in Section “9. VOLTAGE REFERENCE (C8051F120/2/4/6)” on
page 107 for C8051F120/2/4/6 devices, or Section “10. VOLTAGE REFERENCE (C8051F121/3/5/7)” on
page 109 for C8051F121/3/5/7 devices.
7.1. Analog Multiplexer and PGA
Eight ADC2 channels are available for measurement, as selected by the AMX2SL register (see Figure 7.5). The PGA
amplifies the ADC2 output signal by an amount determined by the states of the AMP2GN2-0 bits in the ADC2 Con-
figuration register, ADC2CF (Figure 7.6). The PGA can be software-programmed for gains of 0.5, 1, 2, or 4. Gain
defaults to 0.5 on reset.
Important Note: AIN2 pins also function as Port 1 I/O pins, and must be configured as analog inputs when used as
ADC2 inputs. To configure an AIN2 pin for analog input, set to ‘0’ the corresponding bit in register P1MDIN. Port 1
pins selected as analog inputs are skipped by the Digital I/O Crossbar. See Section “19.1.5. Configuring Port 1 Pins
as Analog Inputs” on page 219 for more information on configuring the AIN2 pins.

7.2. ADC2 Modes of Operation
ADC2 has a maximum conversion speed of 500 ksps. The ADC2 conversion clock (SAR2 clock) is a divided version
of the system clock, determined by the AD2SC bits in the ADC2CF register. The maximum ADC2 conversion clock
is 7.5 MHz.
7.2.1. Starting a Conversion
A conversion can be initiated in one of five ways, depending on the programmed states of the ADC2 Start of Conver-
sion Mode bits (AD2CM2-0) in ADC2CN. Conversions may be initiated by:
1. Writing a ‘1’ to the AD2BUSY bit of ADC2CN;
2. A Timer 3 overflow (i.e. timed continuous conversions);
3. A rising edge detected on the external ADC convert start signal, CNVSTR2;
4. A Timer 2 overflow (i.e. timed continuous conversions);
5. Writing a ‘1’ to the AD0BUSY of register ADC0CN (initiate conversion of ADC2 and ADC0 with a
single software command).
During conversion, the AD2BUSY bit is set to logic 1 and restored to 0 when conversion is complete. The falling
edge of AD2BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the interrupt flag in ADC2CN. Converted data is
available in the ADC2 data word, ADC2.
When a conversion is initiated by writing a ‘1’ to AD2BUSY, it is recommended to poll AD2INT to determine when
the conversion is complete. The recommended procedure is:
Step 1. Write a ‘0’ to AD2INT;
Step 2. Write a ‘1’ to AD2BUSY;
Step 3. Poll AD2INT for ‘1’;
Step 4. Process ADC2 data.
When CNVSTR2 is used as a conversion start source, it must be enabled in the crossbar, and the corresponding pin
must be set to open-drain, high-impedance mode (see Section “19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT” on page 215 for more
details on Port I/O configuration).
7.2.2. Tracking Modes
The AD2TM bit in register ADC2CN controls the ADC2 track-and-hold mode. In its default state, the ADC2 input is
continuously tracked, except when a conversion is in progress. When the AD2TM bit is logic 1, ADC2 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 CNVSTR2 signal is used to initiate conversions in low-power track-
ing mode, ADC2 tracks only when CNVSTR2 is low; conversion begins on the rising edge of CNVSTR2 (see
Figure 7.2). Tracking can also be disabled (shutdown) when the entire chip is in low power standby or sleep modes.
Low-power Track-and-Hold mode is also useful when AMUX or PGA settings are frequently changed, due to the set-
tling time requirements described in Section “7.2.3. Settling Time Requirements” on page 88.

7.2.3. Settling Time Requirements
When the ADC2 input configuration is changed (i.e., a different MUX or PGA selection), a minimum tracking time is
required before an accurate conversion can be performed. This tracking time is determined by the ADC2 MUX resis-
tance, the ADC2 sampling capacitance, any external source resistance, and the accuracy required for the conversion.
Figure 7.3 shows the equivalent ADC2 input circuit. The required ADC2 settling time for a given settling accuracy
(SA) may be approximated by Equation 7.1. Note: An absolute minimum settling time of 800 ns required after any
MUX selection. Note that in low-power tracking mode, three SAR2 clocks are used for tracking at the start of every
conversion. For most applications, these three SAR2 clocks will meet the tracking requirements.
Where:
SA is the settling accuracy, given as a fraction of an LSB (for example, 0.25 to settle within 1/4 LSB)
tis the required settling time in seconds
RTOTAL is the sum of the ADC2 MUX resistance and any external source resistance.

7.3. ADC2 Programmable Window Detector
The ADC2 Programmable Window Detector continuously compares the ADC2 output to user-programmed limits,
and notifies the system when a desired condition is detected. This is especially effective in an interrupt-driven system,
saving code space and CPU bandwidth while delivering faster system response times. The window detector interrupt
flag (AD2WINT in register ADC2CN) can also be used in polled mode. The ADC2 Greater-Than (ADC2GT) and
Less-Than (ADC2LT) registers hold the comparison values. Example comparisons for Differential and Single-ended
modes are shown in Figure 7.11 and Figure 7.10, respectively. Notice that the window detector flag can be pro-
grammed to indicate when measured data is inside or outside of the user-programmed limits, depending on the con-
tents of the ADC2LT and ADC2GT registers.
7.3.1. Window Detector In Single-Ended Mode
Figure 7.10 shows two example window comparisons for Single-ended mode, with ADC2LT = 0x20 and
ADC2GT = 0x10. Notice that in Single-ended mode, the codes vary from 0 to VREF*(255/256) and are represented
as 8-bit unsigned integers. In the left example, an AD2WINT interrupt will be generated if the ADC2 conversion
word (ADC2) is within the range defined by ADC2GT and ADC2LT (if 0x10 <ADC2 <0x20). In the right example,
and AD2WINT interrupt will be generated if ADC2 is outside of the range defined by ADC2GT and ADC2LT
(if ADC2 <0x10 or ADC2 >0x20).

7.3.2. Window Detector In Differential Mode
Figure 7.11 shows two example window comparisons for differential mode, with ADC2LT = 0x10 (+16d) and
ADC2GT = 0xFF (-1d). Notice that in Differential mode, the codes vary from -VREF to VREF*(127/128) and are
represented as 8-bit 2’s complement signed integers. In the left example, an AD2WINT interrupt will be generated if
the ADC2 conversion word (ADC2L) is within the range defined by ADC2GT and ADC2LT (if 0xFF (-1d) < ADC2
< 0x0F (16d)). In the right example, an AD2WINT interrupt will be generated if ADC2 is outside of the range
defined by ADC2GT and ADC2LT (if ADC2 < 0xFF (-1d) or ADC2 > 0x10 (+16d)).

8. DACS, 12-BIT VOLTAGE MODE
Each C8051F12x device includes two on-chip 12-bit voltage-mode Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs). Each
DAC has an output swing of 0 V to (VREF-1LSB) for a corresponding input code range of 0x000 to 0xFFF. The
DACs may be enabled/disabled via their corresponding control registers, DAC0CN and DAC1CN. While disabled,
the DAC output is maintained in a high-impedance state, and the DAC supply current falls to 1 µA or less. The volt-
age reference for each DAC is supplied at the VREFD pin (C8051F120/2/4/6 devices) or the VREF pin (C8051F121/
3/5/7 devices). Note that the VREF pin on C8051F121/3/5/7 devices may be driven by the internal voltage reference
or an external source. If the internal voltage reference is used it must be enabled in order for the DAC outputs to be
valid. See Section “9. VOLTAGE REFERENCE (C8051F120/2/4/6)” on page 107 or Section “10. VOLTAGE
REFERENCE (C8051F121/3/5/7)” on page 109 for more information on configuring the voltage reference for the
DACs.
8.1. DAC Output Scheduling
Each DAC features a flexible output update mechanism which allows for seamless full-scale changes and supports
jitter-free updates for waveform generation. The following examples are written in terms of DAC0, but DAC1 opera-
tion is identical.
8.1.1. Update Output On-Demand
In its default mode (DAC0CN.[4:3] = ‘00’) the DAC0 output is updated “on-demand” on a write to the high-byte of
the DAC0 data register (DAC0H). It is important to note that writes to DAC0L are held, and have no effect on the
DAC0 output until a write to DAC0H takes place. If writing a full 12-bit word to the DAC data registers, the 12-bit
data word is written to the low byte (DAC0L) and high byte (DAC0H) data registers. Data is latched into DAC0 after

a write to the corresponding DAC0H register, so the write sequence should be DAC0L followed by DAC0H if the
full 12-bit resolution is required. The DAC can be used in 8-bit mode by initializing DAC0L to the desired value (typ-
ically 0x00), and writing data to only DAC0H (also see Section 8.2 for information on formatting the 12-bit DAC
data word within the 16-bit SFR space).
8.1.2. Update Output Based on Timer Overflow
Similar to the ADC operation, in which an ADC conversion can be initiated by a timer overflow independently of the
processor, the DAC outputs can use a Timer overflow to schedule an output update event. This feature is useful in
systems where the DAC is used to generate a waveform of a defined sampling rate by eliminating the effects of vari-
able interrupt latency and instruction execution on the timing of the DAC output. When the DAC0MD bits
(DAC0CN.[4:3]) are set to ‘01’, ‘10’, or ‘11’, writes to both DAC data registers (DAC0L and DAC0H) are held until
an associated Timer overflow event (Timer 3, Timer 4, or Timer 2, respectively) occurs, at which time the
DAC0H:DAC0L contents are copied to the DAC input latches allowing the DAC output to change to the new value.
8.2. DAC Output Scaling/Justification
In some instances, input data should be shifted prior to a DAC0 write operation to properly justify data within the
DAC input registers. This action would typically require one or more load and shift operations, adding software over-
head and slowing DAC throughput. To alleviate this problem, the data-formatting feature provides a means for the
user to program the orientation of the DAC0 data word within data registers DAC0H and DAC0L. The three
DAC0DF bits (DAC0CN.[2:0]) allow the user to specify one of five data word orientations as shown in the DAC0CN
register definition.
DAC1 is functionally the same as DAC0 described above. The electrical specifications for both DAC0 and DAC1 are
given in Table 8.1.

9. VOLTAGE REFERENCE (C8051F120/2/4/6)
The voltage reference circuit offers full flexibility in operating the ADC and DAC modules. Three voltage reference
input pins allow each ADC and the two DACs to reference an external voltage reference or the on-chip voltage refer-
ence output. ADC0 may also reference the DAC0 output internally, and ADC2 may reference the analog power sup-
ply voltage, via the VREF multiplexers shown in Figure 9.1.
The internal voltage reference circuit consists of a 1.2 V, 15 ppm/°C (typical) bandgap voltage reference generator
and a gain-of-two output buffer amplifier. The internal reference may be routed via the VREF pin to external system
components or to the voltage reference input pins shown in Figure 9.1. The maximum load seen by the VREF pin
must be less than 200 µA to AGND. Bypass capacitors of 0.1 µF and 4.7 µF are recommended from the VREF pin to
AGND, as shown in Figure 9.1.
The Reference Control Register, REF0CN (defined in Figure 9.2) enables/disables the internal reference generator
and selects the reference inputs for ADC0 and ADC2. The BIASE bit in REF0CN enables the on-board reference
generator while the REFBE bit enables the gain-of-two buffer amplifier which drives the VREF pin. When disabled,
the supply current drawn by the bandgap and buffer amplifier falls to less than 1 µA (typical) and the output of the
buffer amplifier enters a high impedance state. If the internal bandgap is used as the reference voltage generator,
BIASE and REFBE must both be set to logic 1. If the internal reference is not used, REFBE may be set to logic 0.
Note that the BIASE bit must be set to logic 1 if either DAC or ADC is used, regardless of whether the voltage refer-
ence is derived from the on-chip reference or supplied by an off-chip source. If neither the ADC nor the DAC are
being used, both of these bits can be set to logic 0 to conserve power. Bits AD0VRS and AD2VRS select the ADC0
and ADC2 voltage reference sources, respectively. The electrical specifications for the Voltage Reference are given in
Table 9.1.

The temperature sensor connects to the highest order input of the ADC0 input multiplexer (see Section “5.1. Analog
Multiplexer and PGA” on page 49 for C8051F120/1/4/5 devices, or Section “6.1. Analog Multiplexer and PGA”
on page 67 for C8051F122/3/6/7 devices). The TEMPE bit within REF0CN enables and disables the temperature
sensor. While disabled, the temperature sensor defaults to a high impedance state and any A/D measurements per-
formed on the sensor while disabled result in undefined data.

10. VOLTAGE REFERENCE (C8051F121/3/5/7)
The internal voltage reference circuit consists of a 1.2 V, 15 ppm/°C (typical) bandgap voltage reference generator
and a gain-of-two output buffer amplifier. The internal reference may be routed via the VREF pin to external system
components or to the VREFA input pin shown in Figure 10.1. The maximum load seen by the VREF pin must be less
than 200 µA to AGND. Bypass capacitors of 0.1 µF and 4.7 µF are recommended from the VREF pin to AGND, as
shown in Figure 10.1.
The VREFA pin provides a voltage reference input for ADC0 and ADC2. ADC0 may also reference the DAC0 out-
put internally, and ADC2 may reference the analog power supply voltage, via the VREF multiplexers shown in
Figure 10.1.
The Reference Control Register, REF0CN (defined in Figure 10.2) enables/disables the internal reference generator
and selects the reference inputs for ADC0 and ADC2. The BIASE bit in REF0CN enables the on-board reference
generator while the REFBE bit enables the gain-of-two buffer amplifier which drives the VREF pin. When disabled,
the supply current drawn by the bandgap and buffer amplifier falls to less than 1 µA (typical) and the output of the
buffer amplifier enters a high impedance state. If the internal bandgap is used as the reference voltage generator,
BIASE and REFBE must both be set to 1 (this includes any time a DAC is used). If the internal reference is not used,
REFBE may be set to logic 0. Note that the BIASE bit must be set to logic 1 if either ADC is used, regardless of
whether the voltage reference is derived from the on-chip reference or supplied by an off-chip source. If neither the
ADC nor the DAC are being used, both of these bits can be set to logic 0 to conserve power. Bits AD0VRS and
AD2VRS select the ADC0 and ADC2 voltage reference sources, respectively. The electrical specifications for the

11. COMPARATORS
C8051F120/1/2/3/4/5/6/7 devices include two on-chip programmable voltage comparators as shown in Figure 11.1.
The inputs of each Comparator are available at dedicated pins. The output of each comparator is optionally available
at the package pins via the I/O crossbar. When assigned to package pins, each comparator output can be programmed
to operate in open drain or push-pull modes. See Section “19.1. Ports 0 through 3 and the Priority Crossbar
Decoder” on page 217 for Crossbar and port initialization details.

Comparator interrupts can be generated on rising-edge and/or falling-edge output transitions. (For interrupt enable
andprioritycontrol,seeSection “12.7. Interrupt Handler” on page 146). The CP0FIF flag is set upon a
Comparator0 falling-edge interrupt, and the CP0RIF flag is set upon the Comparator0 rising-edge interrupt. Once set,
these bits remain set until cleared by software. The Output State of Comparator0 can be obtained at any time by read-
ing the CP0OUT bit. Comparator0 is enabled by setting the CP0EN bit to logic 1, and is disabled by clearing this bit
to logic 0. Comparator0 can also be programmed as a reset source; for details, see Section “14.5. Comparator0
Reset”onpage169.
Note that after being enabled, there is a Power-Up time (listed in Table 11.1) during which the comparator outputs
stabilize. The states of the Rising-Edge and Falling-Edge flags are indeterminant after comparator Power-Up and
should be explicitly cleared before the comparator interrupts are enabled or the comparators are configured as a reset
source.
Comparator0 response time may be configured in software via the CP0MD1-0 bits in register CPT0MD (see
Figure 11.4). Selecting a longer response time reduces the amount of current consumed by Comparator0. See
Table 11.1 for complete timing and current consumption specifications.
The hysteresis of each comparator is software-programmable via its respective Comparator control register (CPT0CN
and CPT1CN for Comparator0 and Comparator1, respectively). The user can program both the amount of hysteresis
voltage (referred to the input voltage) and the positive and negative-going symmetry of this hysteresis around the
threshold voltage. The output of the comparator can be polled in software, or can be used as an interrupt source. Each
comparator can be individually enabled or disabled (shutdown). When disabled, the comparator output (if assigned to
a Port I/O pin via the Crossbar) defaults to the logic low state, its interrupt capability is suspended and its supply cur-
rent falls to less than 100 nA. Comparator inputs can be externally driven from -0.25 V to (AV+) + 0.25 V without
damage or upset.
Comparator0 hysteresis is programmed using bits 3-0 in the Comparator0 Control Register CPT0CN (shown in
Figure 11.3). The amount of negative hysteresis voltage is determined by the settings of the CP0HYN bits. As shown
in Figure 11.3, the negative hysteresis can be programmed to three different settings, or negative hysteresis can be
disabled. In a similar way, the amount of positive hysteresis is determined by the setting the CP0HYP bits.
The operation of Comparator1 is identical to that of Comparator0, though Comparator1 may not be configured as a
reset source. Comparator1 is controlled by the CPT1CN Register (Figure 11.5) and the CPT1MD Register
(Figure 11.6). The complete electrical specifications for the Comparators are given in Table 11.1.

12. CIP-51 MICROCONTROLLER
The MCU system controller core is the CIP-51 microcontroller. The CIP-51 is fully compatible with the MCS-51™
instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to develop software. The MCU family has
a superset of all the peripherals included with a standard 8051. Included are five 16-bit counter/timers (see descrip-
tion in Section 24), two full-duplex UARTs (see description in Section 22 and Section 23), 256 bytes of internal
RAM, 128 byte Special Function Register (SFR) address space (see Section 12.2.6), and 8/4 byte-wide I/O Ports (see
description in Section 19). The CIP-51 also includes on-chip debug hardware (see description in Section 26), and
interfaces directly with the MCU’s analog and digital subsystems providing a complete data acquisition or control-
system solution in a single integrated circuit.
The CIP-51 Microcontroller core implements the standard 8051 organization and peripherals as well as additional

Performance
The CIP-51 employs a pipelined architecture that greatly increases its instruction throughput over the standard 8051
architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24 system clock cycles to exe-
cute, and usually have a maximum system clock of 12 MHz. By contrast, the CIP-51 core executes 70% of its instruc-
tions in one or two system clock cycles, with no instructions taking more than eight system clock cycles.
With the CIP-51's system clock running at 100 MHz, it has a peak throughput of 100 MIPS. The CIP-51 has a total of
109 instructions. The table below shows the total number of instructions that require each execution time.
Programming and Debugging Support
A JTAG-based serial interface is provided for in-system programming of the FLASH program memory and commu-
nication with on-chip debug support logic. The re-programmable FLASH can also be read and changed by the appli-
cation software using the MOVC and MOVX instructions. This feature allows program memory to be used for non-
volatile data storage as well as updating program code under software control.
The on-chip debug support logic facilitates full speed in-circuit debugging, allowing the setting of hardware break-
points and watch points, starting, stopping and single stepping through program execution (including interrupt service
routines), examination of the program's call stack, and reading/writing the contents of registers and memory. This
method of on-chip debug is completely non-intrusive and non-invasive, requiring no RAM, Stack, timers, or other
on-chip resources.
The CIP-51 is supported by development tools from Cygnal Integrated Products and third party vendors. Cygnal pro-
vides an integrated development environment (IDE) including editor, macro assembler, debugger and programmer.
The IDE's debugger and programmer interface to the CIP-51 via its JTAG interface to provide fast and efficient in-
system device programming and debugging. Third party macro assemblers and C compilers are also available.
12.1. Instruction Set
The instruction set of the CIP-51 System Controller is fully compatible with the standard MCS-51™ instruction set;
standard 8051 development tools can be used to develop software for the CIP-51. All CIP-51 instructions are the
binary and functional equivalent of their MCS-51™ counterparts, including opcodes, addressing modes and effect on
PSW flags. However, instruction timing is different than that of the standard 8051.
12.1.1. 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 tim-
ing. All instruction timings are specified in terms of clock cycles.
Due to the pipelined architecture of the CIP-51, most instructions execute in the same number of clock cycles as there
are program bytes in the instruction. Conditional branch instructions take one less clock cycle to complete when the
branch is not taken as opposed to when the branch is taken. Table 12.1 is the CIP-51 Instruction Set Summary, which
includes the mnemonic, number of bytes, and number of clock cycles for each instruction.
12.1.2. MOVX Instruction and Program Memory
In the CIP-51, the MOVX instruction serves three purposes: accessing on-chip XRAM, accessing off-chip XRAM,
and accessing on-chip program FLASH memory. The FLASH access feature provides a mechanism for user software
to update program code and use the program memory space for non-volatile data storage (see Section “16. FLASH

mapped peripherals) via the MOVX instruction. Refer to Section “18. EXTERNAL DATA MEMORY INTER-

12.2. Memory Organization
The memory organization of the CIP-51 System Controller is similar to that of a standard 8051. There are two sepa-
rate memory spaces: program memory and data memory. Program and data memory share the same address space but
are accessed via different instruction types. There are 256 bytes of internal data memory and 128k bytes of internal
program memory address space implemented within the CIP-51. The CIP-51 memory organization is shown in
Figure 12.2.
12.2.1. Program Memory
The CIP-51 has a 128k byte program memory space. The MCU implements 131072 bytes of this program memory
space as in-system re-programmable FLASH memory in four 32k byte code banks. A common code bank (Bank 0)
of 32k bytes is always accessible from addresses 0x0000 to 0x7FFF. The three upper code banks (Bank 1, Bank 2,
and Bank 3) are each mapped to addresses 0x8000 to 0xFFFF, depending on the selection of bits in the PSBANK reg-
ister, as described in Figure 12.3. 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. Note: 1024
bytes of the memory in Bank 3 (0x1FC00 to 0x1FFFF) are reserved and are not available for user program or data
storage.
Program memory is normally assumed to be read-only. However, the CIP-51 can write to program memory by setting
the Program Store Write Enable bit (PSCTL.0) and using the MOVX instruction. This feature provides a mechanism
for the CIP-51 to update program code and use the program memory space for non-volatile data storage. Refer to Sec-
tion “16. FLASH MEMORY” on page 185 for further details.

12.2.2. Data Memory
The CIP-51 implements 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 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, loca-
tions 0x20 through 0x2F, may either be addressed as bytes or as 128 bit locations accessible with the direct address-
ing mode.
The upper 128 bytes of data memory are accessible only by indirect addressing. This region occupies the same
address space as the Special Function Registers (SFR) but is physically separate from the SFR space. The addressing
mode used by an instruction when accessing locations above 0x7F determines whether the CPU accesses the upper
128 bytes of data memory space or the SFR’s. 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 12.2 illustrates
the data memory organization of the CIP-51.
12.2.3. General Purpose Registers
The lower 32 bytes of data memory, locations 0x00 through 0x1F, may be addressed as four banks of general-purpose
registers. Each bank consists of eight byte-wide registers designated R0 through R7. Only one of these banks may be
enabled at a time. Two bits in the program status word, RS0 (PSW.3) and RS1 (PSW.4), select the active register bank
(see description of the PSW in Figure 12.18). This allows fast context switching when entering subroutines and inter-
rupt service routines. Indirect addressing modes use registers R0 and R1 as index registers.
12.2.4. Bit Addressable Locations
In addition to direct access to data memory organized as bytes, the sixteen data memory locations at 0x20 through
0x2F are also accessible as 128 individually addressable bits. Each bit has a bit address from 0x00 to 0x7F. Bit 0 of
the byte at 0x20 has bit address 0x00 while bit 7 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address 0x07. Bit 7 of the byte at 0x2F has
bit address 0x7F. A bit access is distinguished from a full byte access by the type of instruction used (bit source or
destination operands as opposed to a byte source or destination).
The MCS-51™ assembly language allows an alternate notation for bit addressing of the form XX.B where XX is the
byte address and B is the bit position within the byte. For example, the instruction:
MOV C, 22.3h
moves the Boolean value at 0x13 (bit 3 of the byte at location 0x22) into the Carry flag.
12.2.5. Stack
A programmer's stack can be located anywhere in the 256 byte data memory. The stack area is designated using the
Stack Pointer (SP, address 0x81) SFR. The SP will point to the last location used. The next value pushed on the stack
is placed at SP+1 and then SP is incremented. A reset initializes the stack pointer to location 0x07; therefore, the first
value pushed on the stack is placed at location 0x08, which is also the first register (R0) of register bank 1. Thus, if
more than one register bank is to be used, the SP should be initialized to a location in the data memory not being used
for data storage. The stack depth can extend up to 256 bytes.
The MCUs also have built-in hardware for a stack record which is accessed by the debug logic. The stack record is a
32-bit shift register, where each PUSH or increment SP pushes one record bit onto the register, and each CALL
pushes two record bits onto the register. (A POP or decrement SP pops one record bit, and a RET pops two record
bits, also.) The stack record circuitry can also detect an overflow or underflow on the 32-bit shift register, and can
notify the debug software even with the MCU running at speed.

C8051F124/5/6/7
12.2.6. Special Function Registers
The direct-access data memory locations from 0x80 to 0xFF constitute the special function registers (SFR’s). The
SFR’s provide control and data exchange with the CIP-51's resources and peripherals. The CIP-51 duplicates the
SFR’s found in a typical 8051 implementation as well as implementing additional SFR’s used to configure and access
the sub-systems unique to the MCU. This allows the addition of new functionality while retaining compatibility with
the MCS-51™ instruction set. Table 12.2 lists the SFR’s implemented in the CIP-51 System Controller.
The SFR registers are accessed whenever the direct addressing mode is used to access memory locations from 0x80
to 0xFF. SFR’s with addresses ending in 0x0 or 0x8 (e.g. P0, TCON, P1, SCON, IE, etc.) are bit-addressable as well
as byte-addressable. All other SFR’s are byte-addressable only. Unoccupied addresses in the SFR space are reserved
for future use. Accessing these areas will have an indeterminate effect and should be avoided. Refer to the corre-
sponding pages of the datasheet, as indicated in Table 12.3, for a detailed description of each register.
12.2.6.1.SFR Paging
The CIP-51 features SFR paging, allowing the device to map many SFR’s into the 0x80 to 0xFF memory address
space. The SFR memory space has 256 pages. In this way, each memory location from 0x80 to 0xFF can access up to
256 SFR’s. The C8051F12x family of devices utilizes five SFR pages: 0, 1, 2, 3, and F. SFR pages are selected using
the Special Function Register Page Selection register, SFRPAGE (see Figure 12.12). 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).
12.2.6.2.Interrupts and SFR Paging
When an interrupt occurs, the SFR Page Register will automatically switch to the SFR page containing the flag bit
that caused the interrupt. The automatic SFR Page switch function conveniently removes the burden of switching
SFR pages from the interrupt service routine. Upon execution of the RETI instruction, the SFR page is automatically
restored to the SFR Page in use prior to the interrupt. This is accomplished via a three-byte SFR Page Stack.Thetop
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. On interrupt, the current SFRPAGE value is pushed to the SFRN-
EXT byte, and the value of SFRNEXT is pushed to SFRLAST. Hardware then loads SFRPAGE with the SFR Page
containing the flag bit associated with the interrupt. On a return from interrupt, the SFR Page Stack is popped result-
ing in the value of SFRNEXT returning to the SFRPAGE register, thereby restoring the SFR page context without
software intervention. The value 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 dur-
ing an interrupt, enabling the CPU to return to a different SFR Page upon execution of the RETI instruction (on inter-
rupt exit). Modifying 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 operations on the SFR Page Stack.

Preliminary C8051F120/1/2/3
C8051F124/5/6/7
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 (SFRPGCN). This function defaults to
‘enabled’ upon reset. In this way, the autoswitching function will be enabled unless disabled in software.
A summary of the SFR locations (address and SFR page) is provided in Table 12.2. 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. Note that
certain SFR’s are accessible from ALL SFR pages, and are denoted by the “(ALL PAGES)” designation. For exam-
ple, the Port I/O registers P0, P1, P2, and P3 all have the “(ALL PAGES)” designation, indicating these SFR’s are
accessible from all SFR pages regardless of the SFRPAGE register value.

12.2.6.3.SFR Page Stack Example
The following is an example that shows the operation of the SFR Page Stack during interrupts.
In this example, the SFR Page Control is left in the default enabled state (i.e., SFRPGEN = 1), and the CIP-51 is exe-
cuting in-line code that is writing values to Port 5 (SFR “P5”, located at address 0xD8 on SFR Page 0x0F). The
device is also using the Programmable Counter Array (PCA) and the 10-bit ADC (ADC2) window comparator to
monitor a voltage. The PCA is timing a critical control function in its interrupt service routine (ISR), so its interrupt is
enabled and is set to high priority. The ADC2 is monitoring a voltage that is less important, but to minimize the soft-
ware overhead its window comparator is being used with an associated ISR that is set to low priority. At this point, the
SFR page is set to access the Port 5 SFR (SFRPAGE = 0x0F). See Figure 12.6 below.

While CIP-51 executes in-line code (writing values to Port 5 in this example), ADC2 Window Comparator Interrupt
occurs. The CIP-51 vectors to the ADC2 Window Comparator ISR and pushes the current SFR Page value (SFR Page
0x0F) into SFRNEXT in the SFR Page Stack. The SFR page needed to access ADC2’s SFR’s is then automatically
placed in the SFRPAGE register (SFR Page 0x02). SFRPAGE is considered the “top” of the SFR Page Stack. Soft-
ware can now access the ADC2 SFR’s. Software may switch to any SFR Page by writing a new value to the
SFRPAGE register at any time during the ADC2 ISR to access SFR’s that are not on SFR Page 0x02. See Figure 12.7
below.

While in the ADC2 ISR, a PCA interrupt occurs. Recall the PCA interrupt is configured as a high priority interrupt,
while the ADC2 interrupt is configured as a low priority interrupt. Thus, the CIP-51 will now vector to the high prior-
ity 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 0x00. The value that was in the SFRPAGE register before
the PCA interrupt (SFR Page 2 for ADC2) is pushed down the stack into SFRNEXT. Likewise, the value that was in
the SFRNEXT register before the PCA interrupt (in this case SFR Page 0x0F for Port 5) is pushed down to the SFR-
LAST register, the “bottom” of the stack. Note that a value stored in SFRLAST (via a previous software write to the
SFRLAST register) will be overwritten. See Figure 12.8 below.

On exit from the PCA interrupt service routine, the CIP-51 will return to the ADC2 Window Comparator ISR. On
execution of the RETI instruction, SFR Page 0x00 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 ADC2 ISR can continue to access SFR’s as it did prior to the PCA interrupt. Likewise, the contents of SFR-
LAST are moved to the SFRNEXT register. Recall this was the SFR Page value 0x0F being used to access Port 5
before the ADC2 interrupt occurred. See Figure 12.9 below.

On the execution of the RETI instruction in the ADC2 Window Comparator ISR, the value in SFRPAGE register is
overwritten with the contents of SFRNEXT. The CIP-51 may now access the Port 5 SFR bits as it did prior to the
interrupts occurring. See Figure 12.10 below.
Note that in the above example, all three bytes in the SFR Page Stack are accessible via the SFRPAGE, SFRNEXT,
and SFRLAST special function registers. If the stack is altered while servicing an interrupt, it is possible to return to
a different SFR Page upon interrupt exit than selected prior to the interrupt call. Direct 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 occur 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 (SFRPGCN). See Figure 12.11.

Upon interrupt, the C8051 Core will vector to the specified interrupt service routine and automati-
cally 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. C8051 core will not automatically change to the appropriate SFR
page (i.e., the SFR page that contains the SFR’s for the peripheral/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 SFR’s for the peripheral or function that is the source of the interrupt.

before a returning 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/writing to the SFRPAGE register)

Following are descriptions of SFRs related to the operation of the CIP-51 System Controller. Reserved bits should not
be set to logic l. Future product versions may use these bits to implement new features in which case the reset value
of the bit will be logic 0, selecting the feature's default state. Detailed descriptions of the remaining SFRs are included
in the sections of the datasheet associated with their corresponding system function.

12.7. Interrupt Handler
The CIP-51 includes an extended interrupt system supporting a total of 20 interrupt sources with two priority levels.
The allocation of interrupt sources between on-chip peripherals and external input pins varies according to the spe-
cific version of the device. Each interrupt source has one or more associated interrupt-pending flag(s) located in an
SFR. When a peripheral or external source meets a valid interrupt condition, the associated interrupt-pending flag is
set to logic 1.
If interrupts are enabled for the source, an interrupt request is generated when the interrupt-pending flag is set. As
soon as execution of the current instruction is complete, the CPU generates an LCALL to a predetermined address to
begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). Each ISR must end with an RETI instruction, which returns pro-
gram execution to the next instruction that would have been executed if the interrupt request had not occurred. If
interrupts are not enabled, the interrupt-pending flag is ignored by the hardware and program execution continues as
normal. (The interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1 regardless of the interrupt's enable/disable state.)
Each interrupt source can be individually enabled or disabled through the use of an associated interrupt enable bit in
an SFR (IE-EIE2). However, interrupts must first be globally enabled by setting the EA bit (IE.7) to logic 1 before the
individual interrupt enables are recognized. Setting the EA bit to logic 0 disables all interrupt sources regardless of
the individual interrupt-enable settings.
Some interrupt-pending flags are automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR. However,
most are not cleared by the hardware and must be cleared by software before returning from the ISR. If an interrupt-
pending flag remains set after the CPU completes the return-from-interrupt (RETI) instruction, a new interrupt
request will be generated immediately and the CPU will re-enter the ISR after the completion of the next instruction.
12.7.1. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors
The MCUs support 20 interrupt sources. Software can simulate an interrupt event by setting any interrupt-pending
flag to logic 1. If interrupts are enabled for the flag, an interrupt request will be generated and the CPU will vector to
the ISR address associated with the interrupt-pending flag. MCU interrupt sources, associated vector addresses, prior-
ity order and control bits are summarized in Table 12.4. Refer to the datasheet section associated with a particular on-
chip peripheral for information regarding valid interrupt conditions for the peripheral and the behavior of its inter-
rupt-pending flag(s).
12.7.2. External Interrupts
Two of the external interrupt sources (/INT0 and /INT1) are configurable as active-low level-sensitive or active-low
edge-sensitive inputs depending on the setting of bits IT0 (TCON.0) and IT1 (TCON.2). IE0 (TCON.1) and IE1
(TCON.3) serve as the interrupt-pending flag for the /INT0 and /INT1 external interrupts, respectively. If an /INT0 or
/INT1 external interrupt is configured as edge-sensitive, the corresponding interrupt-pending flag is automatically
cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR. When configured as level sensitive, the interrupt-pending
flag follows the state of the external interrupt's input pin. The external interrupt source must hold the input active until
the interrupt request is recognized. It must then deactivate the interrupt request before execution of the ISR completes
or another interrupt request will be generated.

12.7.3. Interrupt Priorities
Each interrupt source can be individually programmed to one of two priority levels: low or high. A low priority inter-
rupt service routine can be preempted by a high priority interrupt. A high priority interrupt cannot be preempted. Each
interrupt has an associated interrupt priority bit in an SFR (IP-EIP2) used to configure its priority level. Low priority
is the default. If two interrupts are recognized simultaneously, the interrupt with the higher priority is serviced first. If
both interrupts have the same priority level, a fixed priority order is used to arbitrate, given in Table 12.4.
12.7.4. Interrupt Latency
Interrupt response time depends on the state of the CPU when the interrupt occurs. Pending interrupts are sampled
and priority decoded each system clock cycle. Therefore, the fastest possible response time is 5 system clock cycles:
1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt and 4 clock cycles to complete the LCALL to the ISR. Additional clock cycles
will be required if a cache miss occurs. If an interrupt is pending when a RETI is executed, a single instruction is exe-
cuted before an LCALL is made to service the pending interrupt. Therefore, the maximum response time for an inter-
rupt (when no other interrupt is currently being serviced or the new interrupt is of greater priority) is when the CPU is
performing an RETI instruction followed by a DIV as the next instruction, and a cache miss event also occurs. If the
CPU is executing an ISR for an interrupt with equal or higher priority, the new interrupt will not be serviced until the
current ISR completes, including the RETI and following instruction.

timers (except the Missing Clock Detector) are inactive, and the system clock is stopped. Since clocks are running in
Idle mode, power consumption is dependent upon the system clock frequency and the number of peripherals left in
active mode before entering Idle. Stop mode consumes the least power. Figure 12.27 describes the Power Control
Register (PCON) used to control the CIP-51's power management modes.
Although the CIP-51 has Idle and Stop modes built in (as with any standard 8051 architecture), power management
of the entire MCU is better accomplished by enabling/disabling individual peripherals as needed. Each analog periph-
eral can be disabled when not in use and put into low power mode. Digital peripherals, such as timers or serial buses,
draw little power whenever they are not in use. Turning off the Flash memory saves power, similar to entering Idle
mode. Turning off the oscillator saves even more power, but requires a reset to restart the MCU.
12.8.1. 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. 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 or /RST is asserted. 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 WDT will eventually cause an internal watchdog reset and thereby terminate the Idle mode. This fea-
ture protects the system from an unintended permanent shutdown in the event of an inadvertent write to the PCON
register. If this behavior is not desired, the WDT may be disabled by software prior to entering the Idle mode if the
WDT was initially configured to allow this operation. This provides the opportunity for additional power savings,
allowing the system to remain in the Idle mode indefinitely, waiting for an external stimulus to wake up the system.
Refer to Section 14 for more information on the use and configuration of the WDT.
12.8.2. Stop Mode
Setting the Stop Mode Select bit (PCON.1) causes the CIP-51 to enter Stop mode as soon as the instruction that sets
the bit completes. In Stop mode, the CPU and oscillators are stopped, effectively shutting down all digital peripher-
als. Each analog peripheral must be shut down individually prior to entering Stop Mode. Stop mode can only be ter-
minated 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 Detector should be disabled if the CPU is to be put to sleep for longer than the MCD timeout of 100 µs.

13. MULTIPLY AND ACCUMULATE (MAC0)
The C8051F120/1/2/3 devices include a multiply and accumulate engine which can be used to speed up many mathe-
matical operations. MAC0 contains a 16-by-16 bit multiplier and a 40-bit adder, which can perform integer or frac-
tional multiply-accumulate and multiply operations on signed input values in two SYSCLK cycles. A rounding
engine provides a rounded 16-bit fractional result after an additional (third) SYSCLK cycle. MAC0 also contains a 1-
bit arithmetic shifter that will left or right-shift the contents of the 40-bit accumulator in a single SYSCLK cycle.
Figure 13.1 shows a block diagram of the MAC0 unit and its associated Special Function Registers.
13.1. Special Function Registers
There are thirteen Special Function Register (SFR) locations associated with MAC0. Two of these registers are
related to configuration and operation, while the other eleven are used to store multi-byte input and output data for
MAC0. The Configuration register MAC0CF (Figure 13.8) is used to configure and control MAC0. The Status reg-
ister MAC0STA (Figure 13.9) contains flags to indicate overflow conditions, as well as zero and negative results. The
16-bit MAC0A (MAC0AH:MAC0AL) and MAC0B (MAC0BH:MAC0BL) registers are used as inputs to the multi-
plier. The MAC0 Accumulator register is 40 bits long, and consists of five SFRs: MAC0OVR, MAC0ACC3,
MAC0ACC2, MAC0ACC1, and MAC0ACC0. The primary results of a MAC0 operation are stored in the Accumu-
lator registers. If they are needed, the rounded results are stored in the 16-bit Rounding Register MAC0RND
(MAC0RNDH:MAC0RNDL).

13.2. Integer and Fractional Math
MAC0 is capable of interpreting the 16-bit inputs stored in MAC0A and MAC0B as signed integers or as signed frac-
tional numbers. When the MAC0FM bit (MAC0CF.1) is cleared to ‘0’, the inputs are treated as 16-bit, 2’s comple-
ment, integer values. After the operation, the accumulator will contain a 40-bit, 2’s complement, integer value.
Figure 13.2 shows how integers are stored in the SFRs.
When the MAC0FM bit is set to ‘1’, the inputs are treated at 16-bit, 2’s complement, fractional values. The decimal
point is located between bits 15 and 14 of the data word. After the operation, the accumulator will contain a 40-bit,
2’s complement, fractional value, with the decimal point located between bits 31 and 30. Figure 13.3 shows how
fractional numbers are stored in the SFRs.

13.3. Operating in Multiply and Accumulate Mode
MAC0 operates in Multiply and Accumulate (MAC) mode when the MAC0MS bit (MAC0CF.0) is cleared to ‘0’.
When operating in MAC mode, MAC0 performs a 16-by-16 bit multiply on the contents of the MAC0A and MAC0B
registers, and adds the result to the contents of the 40-bit MAC0 accumulator. Figure 13.4 shows the MAC0 pipeline.
There are three stages in the pipeline, each of which takes exactly one SYSCLK cycle to complete. The MAC opera-
tion is initiated with a write to the MAC0BL register. After the MAC0BL register is written, MAC0A and MAC0B
are multiplied on the first SYSCLK cycle. During the second stage of the MAC0 pipeline, the results of the multipli-
cation are added to the current accumulator contents, and the result of the addition is stored in the MAC0 accumula-
tor. The status flags in the MAC0STA register are set after the end of the second pipeline stage. During the second
stage of the pipeline, the next multiplication can be initiated by writing to the MAC0BL register, if it is desired. The
rounded (and optionally, saturated) result is available in the MAC0RNDH and MAC0RNDL registers at the end of
the third pipeline stage. If the MAC0CA bit (MAC0CF.3) is set to ‘1’ when the MAC operation is initiated, the accu-
mulator and all MAC0STA flags will be cleared to zero during the first pipeline stage (before the multiplication
results are added).
13.4. Operating in Multiply Only Mode
MAC0 operates in Multiply Only mode when the MAC0MS bit (MAC0CF.0) is set to ‘1’. Multiply Only mode is
identical to Multiply and Accumulate mode, except that the multiplication result is added with a value of zero before
being stored in the MAC0 accumulator (i.e. it overwrites the current accumulator contents). The result of the multipli-
cation is available in the MAC0 accumulator registers at the end of the second MAC0 pipeline stage (two SYSCLKs
after writing to MAC0BL). As in MAC mode, the rounded result is available in the MAC0 Rounding Registers after
the third pipeline stage. Note that in Multiply Only mode, the MAC0HO flag is not affected.
13.5. Accumulator Shift Operations
MAC0 contains a 1-bit arithmetic shift function which can be used to shift the contents of the 40-bit accumulator left
or right by one bit. The accumulator shift is initiated by writing a ‘1’ to the MAC0SC bit (MAC0CF.5), and takes one
SYSCLK cycle (the rounded result is available in the MAC0 Rounding Registers after a second SYSCLK cycle). The
direction of the arithmetic shift is controlled by the MAC0SD bit (MAC0CF.4). When this bit is cleared to ‘0’, the
MAC0 accumulator will shift left. When the MAC0SD bit is set to ‘1’, the MAC0 accumulator will shift right. Right-
shift operations are sign-extended with the current value of bit 39. Note that the status flags in the MAC0STA register
are not affected by shift operations.

13.6. Rounding and Saturation
A Rounding Engine is included, which can be used to provide a rounded result when operating on fractional numbers.
MAC0 uses an unbiased rounding algorithm to round the data stored in bits 31-16 of the accumulator, as shown in
Table 13.1. Rounding occurs during the third stage of the MAC0 pipeline, after any shift operation, or on a write to
the LSB of the accumulator. The rounded results are stored in the rounding registers: MAC0RNDH (Figure 13.19)
and MAC0RNDL (Figure 13.20). The accumulator registers are not affected by the rounding engine. Although
rounding is primarily used for fractional data, the data in the rounding registers is updated in the same way when
operating in integer mode.
The rounding engine can also be used to saturate the results stored in the rounding registers. If the MAC0SAT bit is
set to ‘1’ and the rounding register overflows, the rounding registers will saturate. When a positive overflow occurs,
the rounding registers will show a value of 0x7FFF when saturated. For a negative overflow, the rounding registers
will show a value of 0x8000 when saturated. If the MAC0SAT bit is cleared to ‘0’, the rounding registers will not sat-
urate.
13.7. Usage Examples
This section details some software examples for using MAC0. Figure 13.5 shows a series of two MAC operations
using fractional numbers. Figure 13.6 shows a single operation in Multiply Only mode with integer numbers. The last
example, shown in Figure 13.7, demonstrates how the left-shift and right-shift operations can be used to modify the
accumulator. All of the examples assume that all of the flags in the MAC0STA register are initially set to ‘0’.

14. 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 configuration.
• Interrupts and timers are disabled.
All SFRs are reset to the predefined values noted in the SFR detailed descriptions. The contents of internal data mem-
ory are unaffected during a reset; any previously stored data is preserved. However, since the stack pointer SFR is
reset, the stack is effectively lost even though the data on the stack are not altered.
The I/O port latches are reset to 0xFF (all logic 1’s), activating internal weak pull-ups during and after the reset. For
VDD Monitor resets, the /RST pin is driven low until the end of the VDD reset timeout.
On exit from the reset state, the program counter (PC) is reset, and the system clock defaults to the internal oscillator
running at its lowest frequency. Refer to Section “15. OSCILLATORS”onpage173 for information on selecting
and configuring the system clock source. The Watchdog Timer is enabled using its longest timeout interval (see Sec-
tion “14.7. Watchdog Timer Reset”onpage169). Once the system clock source is stable, program execution begins
at location 0x0000.
There are seven sources for putting the MCU into the reset state: power-on, power-fail, external /RST pin, external
CNVSTR0 signal, software command, Comparator0, Missing Clock Detector, and Watchdog Timer. Each reset
source is described in the following sections.

14.1. Power-on Reset
The C8051F120/1/2/3/4/5/6/7 family incorporates a power supply monitor that holds the MCU in the reset state until
VDD rises above the VRST level during power-up. See Figure 14.2 for timing diagram, and refer to Table 14.1 for the
Electrical Characteristics of the power supply monitor circuit. The /RST pin is asserted low until the end of the
100 ms VDD Monitor timeout in order to allow the VDD supply to stabilize. The VDD Monitor reset is enabled and
disabled using the external VDD monitor enable pin (MONEN).
On exit from a power-on reset, the PORSF flag (RSTSRC.1) is set by hardware to logic 1. All of the other reset flags
in the RSTSRC Register are indeterminate. PORSF is cleared by all other resets. Since all resets cause program exe-
cution 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.
14.2. Power-fail Reset
When a power-down transition or power irregularity causes VDD to drop below VRST, the power supply monitor will
drive the /RST pin low and return the CIP-51 to the reset state. When VDD returns to a level above VRST, the CIP-51
will leave the reset state in the same manner as that for the power-on reset (see Figure 14.2). Note that even though
internal data memory contents are not altered by the power-fail reset, it is impossible to determine if VDD dropped
below the level required for data retention. If the PORSF flag is set to logic 1, the data may no longer be valid.
14.3. External Reset
The external /RST pin provides a means for external circuitry to force the MCU into a reset state. Asserting the /RST
pin low will cause the MCU to enter the reset state. It may be desirable to provide an external pull-up and/or decou-
pling of the /RST pin to avoid erroneous noise-induced resets. The MCU will remain in reset until at least 12 clock
cycles after the active-low /RST signal is removed. The PINRSF flag (RSTSRC.0) is set on exit from an external
reset.

14.4. Missing Clock Detector Reset
The Missing Clock Detector is essentially a one-shot circuit that is triggered by the MCU system clock. If the system
clock goes away for more than 100 µs, the one-shot will time out and generate a reset. After a Missing Clock Detector
reset, the MCDRSF flag (RSTSRC.2) will be set, signifying the MSD as the reset source; otherwise, this bit reads ‘0’.
The state of the /RST pin is unaffected by this reset. Setting the MCDRSF bit, RSTSRC.2 (see Section
“15. OSCILLATORS”onpage173) enables the Missing Clock Detector.
14.5. Comparator0 Reset
Comparator0 can be configured as a reset input by writing a ‘1’ to the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5). Comparator0
should be enabled using CPT0CN.7 (see Section “11. COMPARATORS”onpage111) prior to writing to C0RSEF
to prevent any turn-on chatter on the output from generating an unwanted reset. The Comparator0 reset is active-low:
if the non-inverting input voltage (CP0+ pin) is less than the inverting input voltage (CP0- pin), the MCU is put into
the reset state. After a Comparator0 Reset, the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5) will read ‘1’ signifying Comparator0 as the
reset source; otherwise, this bit reads ‘0’. The state of the /RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
14.6. External CNVSTR0 Pin Reset
The external CNVSTR0 signal can be configured as a reset input by writing a ‘1’ to the CNVRSEF flag (RSTSRC.6).
The CNVSTR0 signal can appear on any of the P0, P1, P2 or P3 I/O pins as described in Section “19.1. Ports 0
through 3 and the Priority Crossbar Decoder”onpage217. Note that the Crossbar must be configured for the
CNVSTR0 signal to be routed to the appropriate Port I/O. The Crossbar should be configured and enabled before the
CNVRSEF is set. When configured as a reset, CNVSTR0 is active-low and level sensitive. CNVSTR0 cannot be
used to start ADC0 conversions when it is configured as a reset source. After a CNVSTR0 reset, the CNVRSEF flag
(RSTSRC.6) will read ‘1’ signifying CNVSTR0 as the reset source; otherwise, this bit reads ‘0’. The state of the ⁄RST
pin is unaffected by this reset.
14.7. Watchdog Timer Reset
The MCU includes a programmable Watchdog Timer (WDT) running off the system clock. A WDT overflow will
force the MCU into the reset state. To prevent the reset, the WDT must be restarted by application software before
overflow. If the system experiences a software or hardware malfunction preventing the software from restarting the
WDT, the WDT will overflow and cause a reset. This should prevent the system from running out of control.
Following a reset the WDT is automatically enabled and running with the default maximum time interval. If desired
the WDT can be disabled by system software or locked on to prevent accidental disabling. Once locked, the WDT
cannot be disabled until the next system reset. The state of the /RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
The WDT consists of a 21-bit timer running from the programmed system clock. The timer measures the period
between specific writes to its control register. If this period exceeds the programmed limit, a WDT reset is generated.
The WDT can be enabled and disabled as needed in software, or can be permanently enabled if desired. Watchdog
features are controlled via the Watchdog Timer Control Register (WDTCN) shown in Figure 14.3.
14.7.1. Enable/Reset WDT
The watchdog timer is both enabled and reset by writing 0xA5 to the WDTCN register. The user's application soft-
ware should include periodic writes of 0xA5 to WDTCN as needed to prevent a watchdog timer overflow. The WDT
is enabled and reset as a result of any system reset.

14.7.2. Disable WDT
Writing 0xDE followed by 0xAD to the WDTCN register disables the WDT. The following code segment illustrates
disabling the WDT:
CLR EA ; disable all interrupts
MOV WDTCN,#0DEh ; disable software watchdog timer
MOV WDTCN,#0ADh
SETB EA ; re-enable interrupts
The writes of 0xDE and 0xAD must occur within 4 clock cycles of each other, or the disable operation is ignored.
This means that the prefetch engine should be enabled and interrupts should be disabled during this procedure to
avoid any delay between the two writes.
14.7.3. Disable WDT Lockout
Writing 0xFF to WDTCN locks out the disable feature. Once locked out, the disable operation is ignored until the
next system reset. Writing 0xFF does not enable or reset the watchdog timer. Applications always intending to use the
watchdog should write 0xFF to WDTCN in the initialization code.
14.7.4. Setting WDT Interval
WDTCN.[2:0] control the watchdog timeout interval. The interval is given by the following equation:
;whereTsysclk is the system clock period.
For a 3 MHz system clock, this provides an interval range of 0.021 ms to 349.5 ms. WDTCN.7 must be logic 0 when
setting this interval. Reading WDTCN returns the programmed interval. WDTCN.[2:0] reads 111b after a system
reset.

Bits7-0: WDT Control
Writing 0xA5 both enables and reloads the WDT.
Writing 0xDE followed within 4 system clocks by 0xAD disables the WDT.
Writing 0xFF locks out the disable feature.

Reading the WDTCN.[4] bit indicates the Watchdog Timer Status.

15. OSCILLATORS
C8051F120/1/2/3/4/5/6/7 devices include a programmable internal oscillator and an external oscillator drive circuit.
The internal oscillator can be enabled, disabled and calibrated using the OSCICN and OSCICL registers, as shown in
Figure 15.1. The system clock can be sourced by the external oscillator circuit, the internal oscillator, or the on-chip
phase-locked loop (PLL). The internal oscillator's electrical specifications are given in Table 15.1 on page 173.
15.1. Programmable Internal Oscillator
All C8051F12x devices include a programmable internal oscillator that defaults as the system clock after a system
reset. The internal oscillator period can be adjusted via the OSCICL register as defined by Figure 15.2. OSCICL is
factory calibrated to obtain a 24.5 MHz frequency.
Electrical specifications for the precision internal oscillator are given in Table 15.1. Note that the system clock may
be derived from the programmed internal oscillator divided by 1, 2, 4, or 8, as defined by the IFCN bits in register
OSCICN.

15.2. External Oscillator Drive Circuit
The external oscillator circuit may drive an external crystal, ceramic resonator, capacitor, or RC network. A CMOS
clock may also provide a clock input. For a crystal or ceramic resonator configuration, the crystal/resonator must be
wired across the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins as shown in Option 1 of Figure 15.1. In RC, capacitor, or CMOS clock
configuration, the clock source should be wired to the XTAL2 and/or XTAL1 pin(s) as shown in Option 2, 3, or 4 of
Figure 15.1. The type of external oscillator must be selected in the OSCXCN register, and the frequency control bits
(XFCN) must be selected appropriately (see Figure 15.5).
15.3. System Clock Selection
The CLKSL1-0 bits in register CLKSEL select which oscillator source generates the system clock. CLKSL1-0 must
be set to ‘01’ for the system clock to run from the external oscillator; however the external oscillator may still clock
certain peripherals, such as the timers and PCA, when the internal oscillator or the PLL is selected as the system
clock. The system clock may be switched on-the-fly between the internal and external oscillators or the PLL, so long
as the selected oscillator source is enabled and settled. The internal oscillator requires little start-up time, and may be
enabled and selected as the system clock in the same write to OSCICN. External crystals and ceramic resonators typ-
ically require a start-up time before they are settled and ready for use as the system clock. The Crystal Valid Flag
(XTLVLD in register OSCXCN) is set to ‘1’ by hardware when the external oscillator is settled. To avoid reading a
false XTLVLD, in crystal mode software should delay at least 1 ms between enabling the external oscillator and
checking XTLVLD. RC and C modes typically require no startup time. The PLL also requires time to lock onto the
desired frequency, and the PLL Lock Flag (PLLLCK in register PLL0CN) is set to ‘1’ by hardware once the PLL is
locked on the correct frequency.

15.4. External Crystal Example
If a crystal or ceramic resonator is used as an external oscillator source for the MCU, the circuit should be configured
as shown in Figure 15.1, Option 1. The External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) should be chosen from
the Crystal column of the table in Figure 15.5 (OSCXCN register). For example, an 11.0592 MHz crystal requires an
XFCN setting of 111b.
When the crystal oscillator is enabled, the oscillator amplitude detection circuit requires a settle time to achieve
proper bias. Waiting at least 1 ms between enabling the oscillator and checking the XTLVLD bit will prevent a pre-
mature switch to the external oscillator as the system clock. Switching to the external oscillator before the crystal
oscillator has stabilized can result in unpredictable behavior. The recommended procedure is:
Step 1. Enable the external oscillator.
Step 2. Wait at least 1 ms.
Step 3. Poll for XTLVLD => ‘1’.
Step 4. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.
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.
15.5. External RC Example
If an RC network is used as an external oscillator source for the MCU, the circuit should be configured as shown in
Figure 15.1, Option 2. The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however for very small capacitors, the total
capacitance may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. To determine the required External Oscil-
lator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register, first select the RC network value to produce the
desired frequency of oscillation. If the frequency desired is 100 kHz, let R = 246 kΩandC=50pF:
f=1.23(10
3)/RC=1.23(10
3) / [ 246 * 50 ] = 0.1 MHz = 100 kHz
Referring to the table in Figure 15.5, the required XFCN setting is 010.
15.6. External Capacitor Example
If a capacitor is used as an external oscillator for the MCU, the circuit should be configured as shown in Figure 15.1,
Option 3. The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however for very small capacitors, the total capacitance
may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. To determine the required External Oscillator Fre-
quency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register, select the capacitor to be used and find the frequency of
oscillation from the equations below. Assume VDD = 3.0 V and C = 50 pF:
f = KF / ( C * VDD ) = KF / ( 50 * 3 )
f = KF / 150
If a frequency of roughly 50 kHz is desired, select the K Factor from the table in Figure 15.5 as KF = 7.7:
f = 7.7 / 150 = 0.051 MHz, or 51 kHz
Therefore, the XFCN value to use in this example is 010.

15.7. Phase-Locked Loop (PLL)
The C8051F12x Family include a Phase-Locked-Loop (PLL), which is used to multiply the internal oscillator or an
external clock source to achieve higher CPU operating frequencies. The PLL circuitry is designed to produce an out-
put frequency between 25 MHz and 100 MHz, from a divided reference frequency between 5 MHz and 30 MHz. A
block diagram of the PLL is shown in Figure 15.6.
15.7.1. PLL Input Clock and Pre-divider
The PLL circuitry can derive its reference clock from either the internal oscillator or an external clock source. The
PLLSRC bit (PLL0CN.2) controls which clock source is used for the reference clock (see Figure 15.7). If PLLSRC is
set to ‘0’, the internal oscillator source is used. Note that the internal oscillator divide factor (as specified by bits
IFCN1-0 in register OSCICN) will also apply to this clock. When PLLSRC is set to ‘1’, an external oscillator source
will be used. The external oscillator should be active and settled before it is selected as a reference clock for the PLL
circuit. The reference clock is divided down prior to the PLL circuit, according to the contents of the PLLM4-0 bits in
the PLL Pre-divider Register (PLL0DIV), shown in Figure 15.8.
15.7.2. PLL Multiplication and Output Clock
The PLL circuitry will multiply the divided reference clock by the multiplication factor stored in the PLL0MUL reg-
ister shown in Figure 15.9. To accomplish this, it uses a feedback loop consisting of a phase/frequency detector, a
loop filter, and a current-controlled oscillator (ICO). It is important to configure the loop filter and the ICO for the
correct frequency ranges. The PLLLP3-0 bits (PLL0FLT.3-0) should be set according to the divided reference clock
frequency. Likewise, the PLLICO1-0 bits (PLL0FLT.5-4) should be set according to the desired output frequency
range. Figure 15.10 describes the proper settings to use for the PLLLP3-0 and PLLICO1-0 bits. When the PLL is
locked and stable at the desired frequency, the PLLLCK bit (PLL0CN.5) will be set to a ‘1’. The resulting PLL fre-
quency will be set according to the equation:
Where “Reference Frequency” is the selected source clock frequency, PLLN is the PLL Multiplier, and PLLM is the
PLL Pre-divider.

15.7.3. Powering on and Initializing the PLL
To set up and use the PLL as the system clock after power-up of the device, the following procedure should be imple-
mented:
Step 1. Ensure that the reference clock to be used (internal or external) is running and stable.
Step 2. Set the PLLSRC bit (PLL0CN.2) to select the desired clock source for the PLL.
Step 3. Program the FLASH read timing bits, FLRT (FLSCL.5-4) to the appropriate value for the new clock
rate (see Section “16. FLASH MEMORY” on page 185).
Step 4. Enable power to the PLL by setting PLLPWR (PLL0CN.0) to ‘1’.
Step 5. Program the PLL0DIV register to produce the divided reference frequency to the PLL.
Step 6. Program the PLLLP3-0 bits (PLL0FLT.3-0) to the appropriate range for the divided reference
frequency.
Step 7. Program the PLLICO1-0 bits (PLL0FLT.5-4) to the appropriate range for the PLL output frequency.
Step 8. Program the PLL0MUL register to the desired clock multiplication factor.
Step 9. Wait at least 5 µs, to provide a fast frequency lock.
Step 10. Enable the PLL by setting PLLEN (PLL0CN.1) to ‘1’.
Step 11. Poll PLLLCK (PLL0CN.4) until it changes from ‘0’ to ‘1’.
Step 12. Switch the System Clock source to the PLL using the CLKSEL register.
If the PLL characteristics need to be changed when the PLL is already running, the following procedure should be
implemented:
Step 1. The system clock should first be switched to either the internal oscillator or an external clock source
that is running and stable, using the CLKSEL register.
Step 2. Ensure that the reference clock to be used for the new PLL setting (internal or external) is running
and stable.
Step 3. Set the PLLSRC bit (PLL0CN.2) to select the new clock source for the PLL.
Step 4. If moving to a faster frequency, program the FLASH read timing bits, FLRT (FLSCL.5-4) to the
appropriate value for the new clock rate (see Section “16. FLASH MEMORY” on page 185).
Step 5. Disable the PLL by setting PLLEN (PLL0CN.1) to ‘0’.
Step 6. Program the PLL0DIV register to produce the divided reference frequency to the PLL.
Step 7. Program the PLLLP3-0 bits (PLL0FLT.3-0) to the appropriate range for the divided reference
frequency.
Step 8. Program the PLLICO1-0 bits (PLL0FLT.5-4) to the appropriate range for the PLL output frequency.
Step 9. Program the PLL0MUL register to the desired clock multiplication factor.
Step 10. Enable the PLL by setting PLLEN (PLL0CN.1) to ‘1’.
Step 11. Poll PLLLCK (PLL0CN.4) until it changes from ‘0’ to ‘1’.
Step 12. Switch the System Clock source to the PLL using the CLKSEL register.
Step 13. If moving to a slower frequency, program the FLASH read timing bits, FLRT (FLSCL.5-4) to the
appropriate value for the new clock rate (see Section “16. FLASH MEMORY” on page 185).
To shut down the PLL, the system clock should be switched to the internal oscillator or a stable external clock source,
using the CLKSEL register. Next, disable the PLL by setting PLLEN (PLL0CN.1) to ‘0’. Finally, the PLL can be
powered off, by setting PLLPWR (PLL0CN.0) to ‘0’. Note that the PLLEN and PLLPWR bits can be cleared at the
same time.

16. FLASH MEMORY
The C8051F12x family includes 128k + 256 bytes of on-chip, reprogrammable FLASH memory for program code
and non-volatile data storage. The FLASH memory can be programmed in-system through the JTAG interface, or by
software using the MOVX write instructions. Once cleared to logic 0, a FLASH bit must be erased to set it back to
logic 1. Bytes should be erased (set to 0xFF) before being reprogrammed. FLASH write and erase operations are
automatically timed by hardware for proper execution. During a FLASH erase or write, the FLBUSY bit in the
FLSTAT register is set to ‘1’ (see Figure 17.8). During this time, instructions that are located in the prefetch buffer or
the branch target cache can be executed, but the processor will stall until the erase or write is completed if instruction
data must be fetched from FLASH memory. Interrupts that have been pre-loaded into the branch target cache can
also be serviced at this time, if the current code is also executing from the prefetch engine or cache memory. Any
interrupts that are not pre-loaded into cache, or that occur while the core is halted, will be held in a pending state dur-
ing the FLASH write/erase operation, and serviced in priority order once the FLASH operation has completed. Refer
to Table 16.1 for the electrical characteristics of the FLASH memory.
16.1. Programming The Flash Memory
The simplest means of programming the FLASH memory is through the JTAG interface using programming tools
provided by Cygnal or a third party vendor. This is the only means for programming a non-initialized device. For
details on the JTAG commands to program FLASH memory, see Section “26. JTAG (IEEE 1149.1)” on page 315.
The FLASH memory can be programmed from software using the MOVX write instruction with the address and data
byte to be programmed provided as normal operands. Before writing to FLASH memory using MOVX, FLASH write
operations must be enabled by setting the PSWE Program Store Write Enable bit (PSCTL.0) to logic 1. This directs
the MOVX writes to FLASH memory instead of to XRAM, which is the default target. The PSWE bit remains set
until cleared by software. To avoid errant FLASH writes, it is recommended that interrupts be disabled while the
PSWE bit is logic 1.
FLASH memory is read using the MOVC instruction. MOVX reads are always directed to XRAM, regardless of the
state of PSWE.
The COBANK bits in the PSBANK register (Figure 12.3) determine which of the upper three FLASH banks are
mapped to the address range 0x08000 to 0x0FFFF for FLASH writes, reads and erases.
NOTE: To ensure the integrity of FLASH memory contents, it is strongly recommended that the on-chip VDD
monitor be enabled by connecting the VDD monitor enable pin (MONEN) to VDD in any system that writes
and/or erases FLASH memory from software. See “RESET SOURCES” on page 167 for more information.
A write to FLASH memory can clear bits but cannot set them; only an erase operation can set bits in FLASH. Abyte
location to be programmed must be erased before a new value can be written.
16.1.1. 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 cal-
ibration coefficients to be calculated and stored at run time. Data is written and erased using the MOVX write instruc-
tion (as described in Section 16.1.2 and Section 16.1.3) and read using the MOVC instruction. The COBANK bits in
register PSBANK (Figure 12.3) control which portion of the FLASH memory is targeted by writes and erases of
addresses above 0x07FFF.
Two additional 128-byte sectors (256 bytes total) of FLASH memory are included for non-volatile data storage. The
smaller sector size makes them particularly well suited as general purpose, non-volatile scratchpad memory. Even
though FLASH memory can be written a single byte at a time, an entire sector must be erased first. In order to change
a single byte of a multi-byte data set, the data must be moved to temporary storage. The 128-byte sector-size facili-

Preliminary
C8051F120/1/2/3
C8051F124/5/6/7
tates updating data without wasting program memory or RAM space. The 128-byte sectors are double-mapped over
the 128k byte FLASH memory for MOVC reads and MOVX writes only; their addresses range from 0x00 to 0x7F
and from 0x80 to 0xFF (see Figure 16.2). To access the 128-byte sectors, the SFLE bit in PSCTL must be set to logic
1. Code execution from the 128-byte Scratchpad areas is not possible. The 128-byte sectors can be erased individu-
ally, or both at the same time. To erase both sectors simultaneously, the address 0x0400 should be targeted during the
erase operation with SFLE set to ‘1’. See Figure 16.1 for the memory map under different COBANK and SFLE set-
tings.
16.1.2. Erasing FLASH Pages From Software
When erasing FLASH memory, an entire page is erased (all bytes in the page are set to 0xFF). The 128k byte
FLASH memory is organized in 1024-byte pages. The 256 bytes of Scratchpad area (addresses 0x20000 to 0x200FF)
consists of two 128 byte pages. To erase any FLASH page, the FLWE, PSWE, and PSEE bits must be set to ‘1’, and
a byte must be written using a MOVX instruction to any address within that page. The following is the recommended
procedure for erasing a FLASH page from software:
Step 1. Disable interrupts.
Step 2. If erasing a page in Bank 1, Bank 2, or Bank 3, set the COBANK bits (PSBANK.5-4) for the
appropriate bank.
Step 3. If erasing a page in the Scratchpad area, set the SFLE bit (PSCTL.2).
Step 4. Set FLWE (FLSCL.0) to enable FLASH writes/erases via user software.
Step 5. Set PSEE (PSCTL.1) to enable FLASH erases.
Step 6. Set PSWE (PSCTL.0) to redirect MOVX commands to write to FLASH.
Step 7. Use the MOVX instruction to write a data byte to any location within the page to be erased.
Step 8. Clear PSEE to disable FLASH erases.
Step 9. Clear the PSWE bit to redirect MOVX commands to the XRAM data space.
Step 10. Clear the FLWE bit, to disable FLASH writes/erases.
Step 11. If erasing a page in the Scratchpad area, clear the SFLE bit.
Step 12. Re-enable interrupts.

16.1.3. Writing FLASH Memory From Software
Bytes in FLASH memory can be written one byte at a time, or in small blocks. The CHBLKW bit in register
CCH0CN (Figure 17.4) controls whether a single byte or a block of bytes is written to FLASH during a write opera-
tion. When CHBLKW is cleared to ‘0’, the FLASH will be written one byte at a time. When CHBLKW is set to ‘1’,
the FLASH will be written in blocks of four bytes for addresses in code space, or blocks of two bytes for addresses in
the Scratchpad area. Block writes are performed in the same amount of time as single byte writes, which can save
time when storing large amounts of data to FLASH memory.
For single-byte writes to FLASH, bytes are written individually, and the FLASH write is performed after each
MOVX write instruction. The recommended procedure for writing FLASH in single bytes is:
Step 1. Disable interrupts.
Step 2. Clear CHBLKW (CCH0CN.0) to select single-byte write mode.
Step 3. If writing to bytes in Bank 1, Bank 2, or Bank 3, set the COBANK bits (PSBANK.5-4) for the
appropriate bank.
Step 4. If writing to bytes in the Scratchpad area, set the SFLE bit (PSCTL.2).
Step 5. Set FLWE (FLSCL.0) to enable FLASH writes/erases via user software.
Step 6. Set PSWE (PSCTL.0) to redirect MOVX commands to write to FLASH.
Step 7. Use the MOVX instruction to write a data byte to the desired location (repeat as necessary).
Step 8. Clear the PSWE bit to redirect MOVX commands to the XRAM data space.
Step 9. Clear the FLWE bit, to disable FLASH writes/erases.
Step 10. If writing to bytes in the Scratchpad area, clear the SFLE bit.
Step 11. Re-enable interrupts.
For block FLASH writes, the FLASH write procedure is only performed after the last byte of each block is written
with the MOVX write instruction. When writing to addresses located in any of the four code banks, a FLASH write
block is four bytes long, from addresses ending in 00b to addresses ending in 11b. Writes must be performed sequen-
tially (i.e. addresses ending in 00b, 01b, 10b, and 11b must be written in order). The FLASH write will be performed
following the MOVX write that targets the address ending in 11b. When writing to addresses located in the FLASH
Scratchpad area, a FLASH block is two bytes long, from addresses ending in 0b to addresses ending in 1b. The
FLASH write will be performed following the MOVX write that targets the address ending in 1b. If any bytes in the
block do not need to be updated in FLASH, they should be written to 0xFF. The recommended procedure for writing
FLASH in blocks is:
Step 1. Disable interrupts.
Step 2. Set CHBLKW (CCH0CN.0) to select block write mode.
Step 3. If writing to bytes in Bank 1, Bank 2, or Bank 3, set the COBANK bits (PSBANK.5-4) for the
appropriate bank.
Step 4. If writing to bytes in the Scratchpad area, set the SFLE bit (PSCTL.2).
Step 5. Set FLWE (FLSCL.0) to enable FLASH writes/erases via user software.
Step 6. Set PSWE (PSCTL.0) to redirect MOVX commands to write to FLASH.
Step 7. Use the MOVX instruction to write data bytes to the desired block. The data bytes must be written
sequentially, and the last byte written must be the high byte of the block (see text for details, repeat as
necessary).
Step 8. Clear the PSWE bit to redirect MOVX commands to the XRAM data space.
Step 9. Clear the FLWE bit, to disable FLASH writes/erases.
Step 10. If writing to bytes in the Scratchpad area, clear the SFLE bit.
Step 11. Re-enable interrupts.

C8051F124/5/6/7
Write/Erase timing is automatically controlled by hardware. Note that 1024 bytes beginning at location 0x1FC00 are
reserved. FLASH writes and erases targeting the reserved area should be avoided.
16.2. Security Options
The CIP-51 provides security options to protect the FLASH memory from inadvertent modification by software as
well as prevent the viewing of proprietary program code and constants. The Program Store Write Enable (PSCTL.0),
Program Store Erase Enable (PSCTL.1), and Flash Write/Erase Enable (FLACL.0) bits protect the FLASH memory
from accidental modification by software. These bits must be explicitly set to logic 1 before software can write or
erase the FLASH memory. Additional security features prevent proprietary program code and data constants from
being read or altered across the JTAG interface or by software running on the system controller.
A set of security lock bytes stored at 0x1FBFF and 0x1FBFE protect the FLASH program memory from being read
or altered across the JTAG interface. Each bit in a security lock-byte protects one 16k-byte block of memory. Access
to the scratchpad area can only be locked by locking all other FLASH blocks. Clearing a bit to logic 0 in a Read Lock
Byte prevents the corresponding block of FLASH memory from being read across the JTAG interface. Clearing a bit
in the Write/Erase Lock Byte protects the block from JTAG erasures and/or writes. The Read Lock Byte is at location
0x1FBFF. The Write/Erase Lock Byte is located at 0x1FBFE. Figure 16.2 shows the location and bit definitions of
the security bytes. The 1024-byte sector containing the lock bytes can be written to, but not erased by software. An
attempted read of a read-locked byte returns undefined data. Debugging code in a read-locked sector is not possible
through the JTAG interface. To ensure protection from external access, the block containing the lock bytes
(1C000-1BFFF) must be write/erase locked by clearing the MSB of byte 0x1FBFE.

C8051F124/5/6/7
The lock bits can always be read and cleared to logic 0 regardless of the security setting applied to the block contain-
ing the security bytes. This allows additional blocks to be protected after the block containing the security bytes has
been locked. Important Note: The only means of removing a lock once the MSB of the write/erase lock security
byte is set is to erase the entire program memory space by performing a JTAG erase operation (i.e. cannot be
done in user firmware). Addressing either security byte while performing a JTAG erase operation will auto-
matically initiate erasure of the entire program memory space (except for the reserved area). This erasure can
only be performed via JTAG. If a non-security byte in the 0x1F800-0x1FBFF page is addressed during the
JTAG erasure, only that page (including the security bytes) will be erased.

FLASH access Limit Register (FLACL)
The content of this register is used as the 8 MSBs of the 17-bit software read limit address. Software
running at or above this address is prohibited from using the MOVX and MOVC instructions to read,
write, or erase FLASH locations below this address. Any attempts to read locations below this limit
will return indeterminate data.

The FLASH Access Limit security feature (see Figure 16.2) protects proprietary program code and data from being
read by software running on the C8051F120/1/2/3/4/5/6/7. This feature provides support for OEMs that wish to pro-
gram the MCU with proprietary value-added firmware before distribution. The value-added firmware can be pro-
tected while allowing additional code to be programmed in remaining program memory space later.
The Software Read Limit (SRL) is a 17-bit address that establishes two logical partitions in the program memory
space. The first is an upper partition consisting of all the program memory locations at or above the SRL address, and
the second is a lower partition consisting of all the program memory locations starting at 0x00000 up to (but exclud-
ing) the SRL address. Software in the upper partition can execute code in the lower partition, but is prohibited from
reading locations in the lower partition using the MOVC instruction. (Executing a MOVC instruction from the upper
partition with a source address in the lower partition will return indeterminate data.) Software running in the lower
partition can access locations in both the upper and lower partition without restriction.
The Value-added firmware should be placed in the lower partition. On reset, control is passed to the value-added
firmware via the reset vector. Once the value-added firmware completes its initial execution, it branches to a predeter-
mined location in the upper partition. If entry points are published, software running in the upper partition may exe-
cute program code in the lower partition, but it cannot read or change the contents of the lower partition. Parameters
may be passed to the program code running in the lower partition either through the typical method of placing them
on the stack or in registers before the call or by placing them in prescribed memory locations in the upper partition.
The SRL address is specified using the contents of the FLASH Access Register. The 8 MSBs of the 17-bit SRL
address are determined by the setting of the FLACL register. Thus, the SRL can be located on 512-byte boundaries
anywhere in program memory space. However, the 1024-byte erase sector size essentially requires that a 1024
boundary be used. The contents of a non-initialized FLACL security byte are 0x00, thereby setting the SRL address
to 0x00000 and allowing read access to all locations in program memory space by default.
Bits 7-0: FLACL: FLASH Access Limit.
This register holds the most significant 8 bits of the 17-bit program memory read/write/erase limit
address. The lower 9 bits of the read/write/erase limit are always set to 0. A write to this register sets
the FLASH Access Limit. This register can only be written once after any reset. Any subsequent
writes are ignored until the next reset. To fully protect all addresses below this limit, bit 0 of FLACL
should be set to ‘0’.

17. BRANCH TARGET CACHE
The C8051F12x family of devices incorporate a 63x4 byte branch target cache with a 4-byte prefetch engine.
Because the access time of the FLASH memory is 40ns, and the minimum instruction time is 10ns (C8051F120/1/2/
3) or 20ns (C8051F124/5/6/7), the branch target cache and prefetch engine are necessary for full-speed code execu-
tion. Instructions are read from FLASH memory four bytes at a time by the prefetch engine, and given to the CIP-51
processor core to execute. When running linear code (code without any jumps or branches), the prefetch engine alone
allows instructions to be executed at full speed. When a code branch occurs, a search is performed for the branch tar-
get (destination address) in the cache. If the branch target information is found in the cache (called a “cache hit”), the
instruction data is read from the cache and immediately returned to the CIP-51 with no delay in code execution. If the
branch target is not found in the cache (called a “cache miss”), the processor may be stalled for up to four clock
cycles while the next set of four instructions is retrieved from FLASH memory. Each time a cache miss occurs, the
requested instruction data is written to the cache if allowed by the current cache settings. A data flow diagram of the
interaction between the CIP-51 and the Branch Target Cache and Prefetch Engine is shown in Figure 17.1.
17.1. Cache and Prefetch Operation
The branch target cache maintains two sets of memory locations: “slots” and “tags”. A slot is where the cached
instruction data from FLASH is stored. Each slot holds four consecutive code bytes. A tag contains the 15 most sig-
nificant bits of the corresponding FLASH address for each four-byte slot. Thus, instruction data is always cached
along four-byte boundaries in code space. A tag also contains a “valid bit”, which indicates whether a cache location
contains valid instruction data. A special cache location (called the linear tag and slot), is reserved for use by the
prefetch engine. The cache organization is shown in Figure 17.2. Each time a FLASH read is requested, the address is
compared with all valid cache tag locations (including the linear tag). If any of the tag locations match the requested
address, the data from that slot is immediately provided to the CIP-51. If the requested address matches a location
that is currently being read by the prefetch engine, the CIP-51 will be stalled until the read is complete. If a match is
not found, the current prefetch operation is abandoned, and a new prefetch operation is initiated for the requested
instruction data. When the prefetch operation is finished, the CIP-51 begins executing the instructions that were
retrieved, and the prefetch engine begins reading the next four-byte word from FLASH memory. If the newly-fetched
data also meets the criteria necessary to be cached, it will be written to the cache in the slot indicated by the current
replacement algorithm.
The replacement algorithm is selected with the Cache Algorithm bit, CHALGM (CCH0TN.3). When CHALGM is
cleared to ‘0’, the cache will use the rebound algorithm to replace cache locations. The rebound algorithm replaces
locations in order from the beginning of cache memory to the end, and then from the end of cache memory to the

beginning. When CHALGM is set to ‘1’, the cache will use the pseudo-random algorithm to replace cache locations.
The pseudo-random algorithm uses a pseudo-random number to determine which cache location to replace. The
cache can be manually emptied by writing a ‘1’ to the CHFLUSH bit (CCH0CN.4).
17.2. Cache and Prefetch Optimization
By default, the branch target cache is configured to provide code speed improvements for a broad range of circum-
stances. In most applications, the cache control registers should be left in their reset states. Sometimes it is
desirable to optimize the execution time of a specific routine or critical timing loop. The branch target cache includes
options to exclude caching of certain types of data, as well as the ability to pre-load and lock time-critical branch
locations to optimize execution speed.
The most basic level of cache control is implemented with the Cache Miss Penalty Threshold bits, CHMSTH
(CCH0TN.1-0). If the processor is stalled during a prefetch operation for more clock cycles than the number stored
in CHMSTH, the requested data will be cached when it becomes available. The CHMSTH bits are set to zero by
default, meaning that any time the processor is stalled, the new data will be cached. If, for example, CHMSTH is
equal to 2, any cache miss causing a delay of 3 or 4 clock cycles will be cached, while a cache miss causing a delay of
1-2 clock cycles will not be cached.
Certain types of instruction data or certain blocks of code can also be excluded from caching. The destinations of
RETI instructions are, by default, excluded from caching. To enable caching of RETI destinations, the CHRETI bit
(CCH0CN.3) can be set to ‘1’. It is generally not beneficial to cache RETI destinations unless the same instruction is

likely to be interrupted repeatedly (such as a code loop that is waiting for an interrupt to happen). Instructions that are
part of an interrupt service routine (ISR) can also be excluded from caching. By default, ISR instructions are cached,
but this can be disabled by clearing the CHISR bit (CCH0CN.2) to ‘0’. The other information that can be explicitly
excluded from caching are the data returned by MOVC instructions. Clearing the CHMOV bit (CCH0CN.1) to ‘0’
will disable caching of MOVC data. If MOVC caching is allowed, it can be restricted to only use slot 0 for the
MOVC information (excluding cache push operations). The CHFIXM bit (CCH0TN.2) controls this behavior.
Further cache control can be implemented by disabling all cache writes. Cache writes can be disabled by clearing the
CHWREN bit (CCH0CN.7) to ‘0’. Although normal cache writes (such as those after a cache miss) are disabled, data
can still be written to the cache with a cache push operation. Disabling cache writes can be used to prevent a non-crit-
ical section of code from changing the cache contents. Note that regardless of the value of CHWREN, a FLASH
write or erase operation automatically removes the affected bytes from the cache. Cache reads and the prefetch engine
can also be individually disabled. Disabling cache reads forces all instructions data to execute from FLASH memory
or from the prefetch engine. To disable cache reads, the CHRDEN bit (CCH0CN.6) can be cleared to ‘0’. Note that
when cache reads are disabled, cache writes will still occur (if CHWREN is set to ‘1’). Disabling the prefetch engine
is accomplished using the CHPFEN bit (CCH0CN.5). When this bit is cleared to ‘0’, the prefetch engine will be dis-
abled. If both CHPFEN and CHRDEN are ‘0’, code will execute at a fixed rate, as instructions become available
from the FLASH memory.
Cache locations can also be pre-loaded and locked with time-critical branch destinations. For example, in a system
with an ISR that must respond as fast as possible, the entry point for the ISR can be locked into a cache location to
minimize the response latency of the ISR. Up to 61 locations can be locked into the cache at one time. Instructions
are locked into cache by enabling cache push operations with the CHPUSH bit (CCH0LC.7). When CHPUSH is set
to ‘1’, a MOVC instruction will cause the four-byte segment containing the data byte to be written to the cache slot
location indicated by CHSLOT (CCH0LC.5-0). CHSLOT is them decremented to point to the next lockable cache
location. This process is called a cache push operation. Cache locations that are above CHSLOT are “locked”, and
cannot be changed by the processor core, as shown in Figure 17.3. Cache locations can be unlocked by using a cache
pop operation. A cache pop is performed by writing a ‘1’ to the CHPOP bit (CCH0LC.6). When a cache pop is ini-
tiated, the value of CHSLOT is incremented. This unlocks the most recently locked cache location, but does not
remove the information from the cache. Note that a cache pop should not be initiated if CHSLOT is equal to 111110b.
Doing so may have an adverse effect on cache performance. Important: Although locking cache location 1 is not
explicitly disabled by hardware, the entire cache will be unlocked when CHSLOT is equal to 000000b. There-
fore, cache locations 1 and 0 must remain unlocked at all times.

18. EXTERNAL DATA MEMORY INTERFACE AND ON-CHIP XRAM
The C8051F12x MCUs include 8k bytes of on-chip RAM mapped into the external data memory space (XRAM), as
well as an External Data Memory Interface which can be used to access off-chip memories and memory-mapped
devices connected to the GPIO ports. The external memory space may be accessed using the external move instruc-
tion (MOVX) and the data pointer (DPTR), or using the MOVX indirect addressing mode using R0 or R1. If the
MOVX instruction is used with an 8-bit address operand (such as @R1), then the high byte of the 16-bit address is
provided by the External Memory Interface Control Register (EMI0CN, shown in Figure 18.1). Note: the MOVX
instruction can also be used for writing to the FLASH memory. See Section “16. FLASH MEMORY” on page 185
for details. The MOVX instruction accesses XRAM by default. The EMIF can be configured to appear on the lower
GPIO Ports (P0-P3) or the upper GPIO Ports (P4-P7).
18.1. 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 con-
tains the effective address of the XRAM location to be read from or written to. The second method uses R0 or R1 in
combination with the EMI0CN register to generate the effective XRAM address. Examples of both of these methods
are given below.
18.1.1. 16-Bit MOVX Example
The 16-bit form of the MOVX instruction accesses the memory location pointed to by the contents of the DPTR reg-
ister. 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 through the SFR registers DPH, which contains the upper 8-bits of DPTR, and DPL, which contains
the lower 8-bits of DPTR.
18.1.2. 8-Bit MOVX Example
The 8-bit form of the MOVX instruction uses the contents of the EMI0CN SFR to determine the upper 8-bits of the
effective address to be accessed and the contents of R0 or R1 to determine the lower 8-bits of the effective address to
be accessed. The following series of instructions read the contents of the byte at address 0x1234 into the accumulator
A.
MOV 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
18.2. Configuring the External Memory Interface
Configuring the External Memory Interface consists of five steps:
1. Select EMIF on Low Ports (P3, P2, P1, and P0) or High Ports (P7, P6, P5, and P4).
2. Configure the Output Modes of the port pins as either push-pull or open-drain (push-pull is most com-
mon).
3. Configure Port latches to “park” the EMIF pins in a dormant state (usually by setting them to logic ‘1’).
4. Select Multiplexed mode or Non-multiplexed mode.

Preliminary
C8051F120/1/2/3
C8051F124/5/6/7
5. Select the memory mode (on-chip only, split mode without bank select, split mode with bank select, or
off-chip only).
6. 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 selec-
tion, and Mode bits are located in the EMI0CF register shown in Figure 18.2.
18.3. Port Selection and Configuration
The External Memory Interface can appear on Ports 3, 2, 1, and 0 (C8051F120/1/2/3/4/5/6/7 devices) or on Ports 7, 6,
5, and 4 (C8051F120/2/4/6 devices only), depending on the state of the PRTSEL bit (EMI0CF.5). If the lower Ports
are selected, the EMIFLE bit (XBR2.1) must be set to a ‘1’ so that the Crossbar will skip over P0.7 (/WR), P0.6 (/
RD), and if multiplexed mode is selected P0.5 (ALE). For more information about the configuring the Crossbar, see
Section “19.1. Ports 0 through 3 and the Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 217.
The External Memory Interface claims the associated Port pins for memory operations ONLY during the execution of
an off-chip MOVX instruction. Once the MOVX instruction has completed, control of the Port pins reverts to the Port
latches or to the Crossbar (on Ports 3, 2, 1, and 0). See Section “19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT” on page 215 for
more information about the Crossbar and Port operation and configuration. The Port latches should be explicitly
configured to ‘park’ the External Memory Interface pins in a dormant state, most commonly by setting them
toalogic1.
During the execution of the MOVX instruction, the External Memory Interface will explicitly disable the drivers on
all Port pins that are acting as Inputs (Data[7:0] during a READ operation, for example). The Output mode of the Port
pins (whether the pin is configured as Open-Drain or Push-Pull) is unaffected by the External Memory Interface oper-
ation, and remains controlled by the PnMDOUT registers. In most cases, the output modes of all EMIF pins should be
configured for push-pull mode. See“Configuring the Output Modes of the Port Pins” on page 218.

18.4. Multiplexed and Non-multiplexed Selection
The External Memory Interface is capable of acting in a Multiplexed mode or a Non-multiplexed mode, depending
on the state of the EMD2 (EMI0CF.4) bit.
18.4.1. Multiplexed Configuration
In Multiplexed mode, the Data Bus and the lower 8-bits of the Address Bus share the same Port pins: AD[7:0]. In this
mode, an external latch (74HC373 or equivalent logic gate) is used to hold the lower 8-bits of the RAM address. The
external latch is controlled by the ALE (Address Latch Enable) signal, which is driven by the External Memory Inter-
face logic. An example of a Multiplexed Configuration is shown in Figure 18.3.
In Multiplexed mode, the external MOVX operation can be broken into two phases delineated by the state of the ALE
signal. During the first phase, ALE is high and the lower 8-bits of the Address Bus are presented to AD[7:0]. During
this phase, the address latch is configured such that the ‘Q’ outputs reflect the states of the ‘D’ inputs. When ALE
falls, signaling the beginning of the second phase, the address latch outputs remain fixed and are no longer dependent
on the latch inputs. Later in the second phase, the Data Bus controls the state of the AD[7:0] port at the time /RD or /
WR is asserted.
See Section “18.6.2. Multiplexed Mode” on page 210 for more information.

Configuration is shown in Figure 18.4. See Section “18.6.1. Non-multiplexed Mode” on page 207 for more infor-
mation about Non-multiplexed operation.

18.5. Memory Mode Selection
The external data memory space can be configured in one of four modes, shown in Figure 18.5, based on the EMIF
Mode bits in the EMI0CF register (Figure 18.2). These modes are summarized below. More information about the
different modes can be found in Section “18.6. Timing” on page 206.
18.5.1. Internal XRAM Only
When EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to ‘00’, all MOVX instructions will target the internal XRAM space on the device. Mem-
ory accesses to addresses beyond the populated space will wrap on 8k 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-byte of the effective address and R0
or R1 to determine the low-byte of the effective address.
• 16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of the 16-bit DPTR to determine the effective address.
18.5.2. Split Mode without Bank Select
When EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to ‘01’, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and off-chip space.
• Effective addresses below the 8k boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.
• Effective addresses above the 8k boundary will access off-chip space.
• 8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is on-chip or off-
chip. However, in the “No Bank Select” mode, an 8-bit MOVX operation will not drive the upper 8-bits A[15:8]
of the Address Bus during an off-chip access. This allows the user to manipulate the upper address bits at will by
setting the Port state directly via the port latches. This behavior is in contrast with “Split Mode with Bank Select”
described below. The lower 8-bits of the Address Bus A[7:0] are driven, determined by R0 or R1.
• 16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip or off-
chip, and unlike 8-bit MOVX operations, the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-
chip transaction.

18.5.3. 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 8k boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.
• Effective addresses above the 8k boundary will access off-chip space.
• 8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is on-chip or off-
chip. The upper 8-bits of the Address Bus A[15:8] are determined by EMI0CN, and the lower 8-bits of the
Address Bus A[7:0] are determined by R0 or R1. All 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven in “Bank
Select” mode.
• 16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip or off-
chip, and the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.
18.5.4. External Only
When EMI0CF[3:2] are set to ‘11’, all MOVX operations are directed to off-chip space. On-chip XRAM is not visi-
ble to the CPU. This mode is useful for accessing off-chip memory located between 0x0000 and the 8k boundary.
• 8-bit MOVX operations ignore the contents of EMI0CN. The upper Address bits A[15:8] are not driven (identi-
cal behavior to an off-chip access in “Split Mode without Bank Select” described above). This allows the user to
manipulate the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly. The lower 8-bits of the effective
address A[7:0] are determined by the contents of R0 or R1.
• 16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine the effective address A[15:0]. The full 16-bits
of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.

18.6. Timing
The timing parameters of the External Memory Interface can be configured to enable connection to devices having
different setup and hold time requirements. The Address Setup time, Address Hold time, /RD and /WR strobe widths,
and in multiplexed mode, the width of the ALE pulse are all programmable in units of SYSCLK periods through
EMI0TC, shown in Figure 18.6, 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 opera-
tions, the Address Latch Enable signal will require a minimum of 2 additional SYSCLK cycles. Therefore, the mini-
mum 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 18.1 lists the AC parameters for the External Memory Interface, and Figure 18.7 through Figure 18.12 show the
timing diagrams for the different External Memory Interface modes and MOVX operations.

19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT
The C8051F12x family of devices are fully integrated mixed-signal System on a Chip MCUs with 64 digital I/O pins
(C8051F120/2/4/6) or 32 digital I/O pins (C8051F121/3/5/7), organized as 8-bit Ports. All ports are both bit- and
byte-addressable through their corresponding Port Data registers. All Port pins are 5 V-tolerant, and all support con-
figurable Open-Drain or Push-Pull output modes and weak pull-ups. A block diagram of the Port I/O cell is shown in
Figure 19.1. Complete Electrical Specifications for the Port I/O pins are given in Table 19.1.

C8051F124/5/6/7
The C8051F12x family of devices have a wide array of digital resources which are available through the four lower I/
O Ports: P0, P1, P2, and P3. Each of the pins on P0, P1, P2, and P3, can be defined as a General-Purpose I/O (GPIO)
pin or can be controlled by a digital peripheral or function (like UART0 or /INT1 for example), as shown in
Figure 19.2. The system designer controls which digital functions are assigned pins, limited only by the number of
pins available. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved through the use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. Note
that the state of a Port I/O pin can always be read from its associated Data register regardless of whether that pin has
been assigned to a digital peripheral or behaves as GPIO. The Port pins on Port 1 can be used as Analog Inputs to
ADC2.
An External Memory Interface which is active during the execution of an off-chip MOVX instruction can be active
on either the lower Ports or the upper Ports. See Section “18. EXTERNAL DATA MEMORY INTERFACE AND
ON-CHIP XRAM” on page 199 for more information about the External Memory Interface.

19.1. Ports 0 through 3 and the Priority Crossbar Decoder
The Priority Crossbar Decoder, or “Crossbar”, allocates and assigns Port pins on Port 0 through Port 3 to the digital
peripherals (UARTs, SMBus, PCA, Timers, etc.) on the device using a priority order. The Port pins are allocated in
order starting with P0.0 and continue through P3.7 if necessary. The digital peripherals are assigned Port pins in a pri-
ority order which is listed in Figure 19.3, with UART0 having the highest priority and CNVSTR2 having the lowest
priority.
19.1.1. Crossbar Pin Assignment and Allocation
The Crossbar assigns Port pins to a peripheral if the corresponding enable bits of the peripheral are set to a logic 1 in
the Crossbar configuration registers XBR0, XBR1, and XBR2, shown in Figure 19.7, Figure 19.8, and Figure 19.9.
For example, if the UART0EN bit (XBR0.2) is set to a logic 1, the TX0 and RX0 pins will be mapped to P0.0 and
P0.1 respectively. Because UART0 has the highest priority, its pins will always be mapped to P0.0 and P0.1 when
UART0EN is set to a logic 1. If a digital peripheral’s enable bits are not set to a logic 1, then its ports are not accessi-

ble at the Port pins of the device. Also note that the Crossbar assigns pins to all associated functions when a serial
communication peripheral is selected (i.e. SMBus, SPI, UART). It would be impossible, for example, to assign TX0
to a Port pin without assigning RX0 as well. Each combination of enabled peripherals results in a unique device
pinout.
All Port pins on Ports 0 through 3 that are not allocated by the Crossbar can be accessed as General-Purpose I/O
(GPIO) pins by reading and writing the associated Port Data registers (See Figure 19.10, Figure 19.12, Figure 19.15,
and Figure 19.17), a set of SFR’s which are both byte- and bit-addressable. The output states of Port pins that are allo-
cated by the Crossbar are controlled by the digital peripheral that is mapped to those pins. Writes to the Port Data reg-
isters (or associated Port bits) will have no effect on the states of these pins.
A Read of a Port Data register (or Port bit) will always return the logic state present at the pin itself, regardless of
whether the Crossbar has allocated the pin for peripheral use or not. An exception to this occurs during the execution
of a read-modify-write instruction (ANL, ORL, XRL, CPL, INC, DEC, DJNZ, JBC, CLR, SETB, and the bitwise
MOV write operation). During the read cycle of the read-modify-write instruction, it is the contents of the Port Data
register, not the state of the Port pins themselves, which is read.
Because the Crossbar registers affect the pinout of the peripherals of the device, they are typically configured in the
initialization code of the system before the peripherals themselves are configured. Once configured, the Crossbar reg-
isters are typically left alone.
Once the Crossbar registers have been properly configured, the Crossbar is enabled by setting XBARE (XBR2.4) to a
logic 1. Until XBARE is set to a logic 1, the output drivers on Ports 0 through 3 are explicitly disabled in order
to prevent possible contention on the Port pins while the Crossbar registers and other registers which can
affect the device pinout are being written.
The output drivers on Crossbar-assigned input signals (like RX0, for example) are explicitly disabled; thus the values
of the Port Data registers and the PnMDOUT registers have no effect on the states of these pins.
19.1.2. Configuring the Output Modes of the Port Pins
The output drivers on Ports 0 through 3 remain disabled until the Crossbar is enabled by setting XBARE (XBR2.4) to
alogic1.
The output mode of each port pin can be configured to be either Open-Drain or Push-Pull. In the Push-Pull configura-
tion, writing a logic 0 to the associated bit in the Port Data register will cause the Port pin to be driven to GND, and
writing a logic 1 will cause the Port pin to be driven to VDD. In the Open-Drain configuration, writing a logic 0 to the
associated bit in the Port Data register will cause the Port pin to be driven to GND, and a logic 1 will cause the Port
pin to assume a high-impedance state. The Open-Drain configuration is useful to prevent contention between devices
in systems where the Port pin participates in a shared interconnection in which multiple outputs are connected to the
same physical wire (like the SDA signal on an SMBus connection).
The output modes of the Port pins on Ports 0 through 3 are determined by the bits in the associated PnMDOUT regis-
ters (See Figure 19.11, Figure 19.14, Figure 19.16, and Figure 19.18). For example, a logic 1 in P3MDOUT.7 will
configure the output mode of P3.7 to Push-Pull; a logic 0 in P3MDOUT.7 will configure the output mode of P3.7 to
Open-Drain. All Port pins default to Open-Drain output.
The PnMDOUT registers control the output modes of the port pins regardless of whether the Crossbar has allocated
the Port pin for a digital peripheral or not. The exceptions to this rule are: the Port pins connected to SDA, SCL, RX0
(if UART0 is in Mode 0), and RX1 (if UART1 is in Mode 0) are always configured as Open-Drain outputs, regardless
of the settings of the associated bits in the PnMDOUT registers.

C8051F124/5/6/7
19.1.3. Configuring Port Pins as Digital Inputs
A Port pin is configured as a digital input by setting its output mode to “Open-Drain” and writing a logic 1 to the
associated bit in the Port Data register. For example, P3.7 is configured as a digital input by setting P3MDOUT.7 to a
logic0andP3.7toalogic1.
If the Port pin has been assigned to a digital peripheral by the Crossbar and that pin functions as an input (for example
RX0, the UART0 receive pin), then the output drivers on that pin are automatically disabled.
19.1.4. Weak Pull-ups
By default, each Port pin has an internal weak pull-up device enabled which provides a resistive connection (about
100 kΩ) between the pin and VDD. The weak pull-up devices can be globally disabled by writing a logic 1 to the
Weak Pull-up Disable bit, (WEAKPUD, XBR2.7). The weak pull-up is automatically deactivated on any pin that is
driving a logic 0; that is, an output pin will not contend with its own pull-up device. The weak pull-up device can also
be explicitly disabled on any Port 1 pin by configuring the pin as an Analog Input, as described below.
19.1.5. Configuring Port 1 Pins as Analog Inputs
The pins on Port 1 can serve as analog inputs to the ADC2 analog MUX. A Port pin is configured as an Analog Input
by writing a logic 0 to the associated bit in the PnMDIN registers. All Port pins default to a Digital Input mode. Con-
figuring a Port pin as an analog input:
1. Disables the digital input path from the pin. This prevents additional power supply current from being
drawn when the voltage at the pin is near VDD / 2. A read of the Port Data bit will return a logic 0 regardless
of the voltage at the Port pin.
2. Disables the weak pull-up device on the pin.
3. Causes the Crossbar to “skip over” the pin when allocating Port pins for digital peripherals.
Note that the output drivers on a pin configured as an Analog Input are not explicitly disabled. Therefore, the associ-
ated P1MDOUT bits of pins configured as Analog Inputs should explicitly be set to logic 0 (Open-Drain output
mode), and the associated Port1 Data bits should be set to logic 1 (high-impedance). Also note that it is not required
to configure a Port pin as an Analog Input in order to use it as an input to ADC2, however, it is strongly recom-
mended. See the ADC2 section in this datasheet for further information.

19.1.6. External Memory Interface Pin Assignments
If the External Memory Interface (EMIF) is enabled on the Low ports (Ports 0 through 3), EMIFLE (XBR2.5) should
be set to a logic 1 so that the Crossbar will not assign peripherals to P0.7 (/WR), P0.6 (/RD), and if the External Mem-
ory Interface is in Multiplexed mode, P0.5 (ALE). Figure 19.4 shows an example Crossbar Decode Table with
EMIFLE=1 and the EMIF in Multiplexed mode. Figure 19.5 shows an example Crossbar Decode Table with
EMIFLE=1 and the EMIF in Non-multiplexed mode.
If the External Memory Interface is enabled on the Low ports and an off-chip MOVX operation occurs, the External
Memory Interface will control the output states of the affected Port pins during the execution phase of the MOVX
instruction, regardless of the settings of the Crossbar registers or the Port Data registers. The output configuration of
the Port pins is not affected by the EMIF operation, except that Read operations will explicitly disable the output
drivers on the Data Bus. See Section “18. EXTERNAL DATA MEMORY INTERFACE AND ON-CHIP
XRAM” on page 199 for more information about the External Memory Interface.

19.1.7. Crossbar Pin Assignment Example
In this example (Figure 19.6), we configure the Crossbar to allocate Port pins for UART0, the SMBus, UART1, /
INT0, and /INT1 (8 pins total). Additionally, we configure the External Memory Interface to operate in Multiplexed
mode and to appear on the Low ports. Further, we configure P1.2, P1.3, and P1.4 for Analog Input mode so that the
voltages at these pins can be measured by ADC2. The configuration steps are as follows:
1. XBR0, XBR1, and XBR2 are set such that UART0EN = 1, SMB0EN = 1, INT0E = 1, INT1E = 1, and
EMIFLE = 1. Thus: XBR0 = 0x05, XBR1 = 0x14, and XBR2 = 0x02.
2. We configure the External Memory Interface to use Multiplexed mode and to appear on the Low ports.
PRTSEL = 0, EMD2 = 0.
3. We configure the desired Port 1 pins to Analog Input mode by setting P1MDIN to 0xE3 (P1.4, P1.3, and
P1.2 are Analog Inputs, so their associated P1MDIN bits are set to logic 0).
4. We enable the Crossbar by setting XBARE = 1: XBR2 = 0x42.
- UART0 has the highest priority, so P0.0 is assigned to TX0, and P0.1 is assigned to RX0.
- The SMBus is next in priority order, so P0.2 is assigned to SDA, and P0.3 is assigned to SCL.
- UART1 is next in priority order, so P0.4 is assigned to TX1. Because the External Memory Inter-
face is selected on the lower Ports, EMIFLE = 1, which causes the Crossbar to skip P0.6 (/RD) and
P0.7 (/WR). Because the External Memory Interface is configured in Multiplexed mode, the Cross-
bar will also skip P0.5 (ALE). RX1 is assigned to the next non-skipped pin, which in this case is
P1.0.
- /INT0isnextinpriorityorder,soitisassignedtoP1.1.
- P1MDIN is set to 0xE3, which configures P1.2, P1.3, and P1.4 as Analog Inputs, causing the
Crossbar to skip these pins.
- /INT1isnextinpriorityorder,soitisassignedtothenextnon-skippedpin,whichisP1.5.
- The External Memory Interface will drive Ports 2 and 3 (denoted by red dots in Figure 19.6) during
the execution of an off-chip MOVX instruction.
5. We set the UART0 TX pin (TX0, P0.0) and UART1 TX pin (TX1, P0.4) outputs to Push-Pull by setting
P0MDOUT = 0x11.
6. We configure all EMIF-controlled pins to push-pull output mode by setting P0MDOUT |= 0xE0;
P2MDOUT = 0xFF; P3MDOUT = 0xFF.
7. We explicitly disable the output drivers on the 3 Analog Input pins by setting P1MDOUT = 0x00 (con-
figure outputs to Open-Drain) and P1 = 0xFF (a logic 1 selects the high-impedance state).

19.2. Ports 4 through 7 (C8051F120/2/4/6 only)
All Port pins on Ports 4 through 7 can be accessed as General-Purpose I/O (GPIO) pins by reading and writing the
associated Port Data registers (See Figure 19.19, Figure 19.21, Figure 19.23, and Figure 19.25), a set of SFR’s which
are both bit and byte-addressable.
A Read of a Port Data register (or Port bit) will always return the logic state present at the pin itself, regardless of
whether the Crossbar has allocated the pin for peripheral use or not. An exception to this occurs during the execution
of a read-modify-write instruction (ANL, ORL, XRL, CPL, INC, DEC, DJNZ, JBC, CLR, SETB, and the bitwise
MOV write operation). During the read cycle of the read-modify-write instruction, it is the contents of the Port Data
register, not the state of the Port pins themselves, which is read.
19.2.1. Configuring Ports which are not Pinned Out
Although P4, P5, P6, and P7 are not brought out to pins on the C8051F121/3/5/7 devices, the Port Data registers are
still present and can be used by software. Because the digital input paths also remain active, it is recommended that
these pins not be left in a ‘floating’ state in order to avoid unnecessary power dissipation arising from the inputs float-
ing to non-valid logic levels. This condition can be prevented by any of the following:
1. Leave the weak pull-up devices enabled by setting WEAKPUD (XBR2.7) to a logic 0.
2. Configure the output modes of P4, P5, P6, and P7 to “Push-Pull” by writing PnMDOUT = 0xFF.
3. Force the output states of P4, P5, P6, and P7 to logic 0 by writing zeros to the Port Data registers: P4 =
0x00, P5 = 0x00, P6= 0x00, and P7 = 0x00.
19.2.2. Configuring the Output Modes of the Port Pins
The output mode of each port pin can be configured to be either Open-Drain or Push-Pull. In the Push-Pull configura-
tion, a logic 0 in the associated bit in the Port Data register will cause the Port pin to be driven to GND, and a logic 1
will cause the Port pin to be driven to VDD. In the Open-Drain configuration, a logic 0 in the associated bit in the
Port Data register will cause the Port pin to be driven to GND, and a logic 1 will cause the Port pin to assume a high-
impedance state. The Open-Drain configuration is useful to prevent contention between devices in systems where the
Port pin participates in a shared interconnection in which multiple outputs are connected to the same physical wire.
The output modes of the Port pins on Ports 4 through 7 are determined by the bits in their respective PnMDOUT Out-
put Mode Registers. Each bit in PnMDOUT controls the output mode of its corresponding port pin (see Figure 19.20,
Figure 19.22, Figure 19.24, and Figure 19.26). For example, to place Port pin 4.3 in push-pull mode (digital output),
set P4MDOUT.3 to logic 1. All port pins default to open-drain mode upon device reset.

C8051F124/5/6/7
19.2.3. Configuring Port Pins as Digital Inputs
A Port pin is configured as a digital input by setting its output mode to “Open-Drain” and writing a logic 1 to the
associated bit in the Port Data register. For example, P7.7 is configured as a digital input by setting P7MDOUT.7 to a
logic0andP7.7toalogic1.
19.2.4. Weak Pull-ups
By default, each Port pin has an internal weak pull-up device enabled which provides a resistive connection (about
100 kΩ) between the pin and VDD. The weak pull-up devices can be globally disabled by writing a logic 1 to the
Weak Pull-up Disable bit, (WEAKPUD, XBR2.7). The weak pull-up is automatically deactivated on any pin that is
driving a logic 0; that is, an output pin will not contend with its own pull-up device.
19.2.5. External Memory Interface
If the External Memory Interface (EMIF) is enabled on the High ports (Ports 4 through 7), EMIFLE (XBR2.5) should
be set to a logic 0.
If the External Memory Interface is enabled on the High ports and an off-chip MOVX operation occurs, the External
Memory Interface will control the output states of the affected Port pins during the execution phase of the MOVX
instruction, regardless of the settings of the Port Data registers. The output configuration of the Port pins is not
affected by the EMIF operation, except that Read operations will explicitly disable the output drivers on the Data Bus
during the MOVX execution. See Section “18. EXTERNAL DATA MEMORY INTERFACE AND ON-CHIP
XRAM” on page 199 for more information about the External Memory Interface.

20. SYSTEM MANAGEMENT BUS / I2C BUS (SMBUS0)
The SMBus0 I/O interface is a two-wire, bi-directional serial bus. SMBus0 is compliant with the System Manage-
ment Bus Specification, version 1.1, and compatible with the I2C serial bus. Reads and writes to the interface by the
system controller are byte oriented with the SMBus0 interface autonomously controlling the serial transfer of the
data. A method of extending the clock-low duration is available to accommodate devices with different speed capa-
bilities on the same bus.
SMBus0 may operate as a master and/or slave, and may function on a bus with multiple masters. SMBus0 provides
control of SDA (serial data), SCL (serial clock) generation and synchronization, arbitration logic, and START/STOP
control and generation.
Figure 20.2 shows a typical SMBus configuration. The SMBus0 interface will work at any voltage between 3.0 V and
5.0 V and different devices on the bus may operate at different voltage levels. The bi-directional SCL (serial clock)

and SDA (serial data) lines must be connected to a positive power supply voltage through a pull-up 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 when the bus is free. The maximum number of devices on the bus is limited
only by the requirement that the rise and fall times on the bus will not exceed 300 ns and 1000 ns, respectively.
20.1. 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.
20.2. SMBus Protocol
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 ini-
tiates both types of data transfers and provides the serial clock pulses on SCL. Note: multiple master devices on the
same bus are supported. If two or more masters attempt to initiate a data transfer simultaneously, an arbitration
scheme is employed with a single master always winning the arbitration. Note that it is not necessary to specify one
device as the master in a system; any device who transmits a START and a slave address becomes the master for 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. Each byte that is received (by a
master or slave) must be acknowledged (ACK) with a low SDA during a high SCL (see Figure 20.3). If the receiving
device does not ACK, the transmitting device will read a “not acknowledge” (NACK), which is a high SDA during a
high SCL.
The direction bit (R/W) occupies the least-significant bit position of the address. 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 gener-
ates the START condition and then transmits the slave address and direction bit. If the transaction is a WRITE opera-

tion 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 20.3 illustrates a typical SMBus transaction.
20.2.1. Arbitration
A master may start a transfer only if the bus is free. The bus is free after a STOP condition or after the SCL and SDA
lines remain high for a specified time (see Section 20.2.4). In the event that two or more devices attempt to begin a
transfer at the same time, an arbitration scheme is employed to force one master to give up the bus. The master
devices continue transmitting until one attempts a HIGH while the other transmits a LOW. Since the bus is open-
drain, the bus will be pulled LOW. The master attempting the HIGH will detect a LOW SDA and give up the bus. The
winning master continues its transmission without interruption; the losing master becomes a slave and receives the
rest of the transfer. This arbitration scheme is non-destructive: one device always wins, and no data is lost.
20.2.2. Clock Low Extension
SMBus provides a clock synchronization mechanism, similar to I2C, which allows devices with different speed capa-
bilities 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.
20.2.3. SCL Low Timeout
If the SCL line is held low by a slave device on the bus, no further communication is possible. Furthermore, the mas-
ter cannot force the SCL line high to correct the error condition. To solve this problem, the SMBus protocol specifies
that devices participating in a transfer must detect any clock cycle held low longer than 25 ms as a “timeout” condi-
tion. Devices that have detected the timeout condition must reset the communication no later than 10 ms after detect-
ing the timeout condition.
20.2.4. 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 desig-
nated as free. If an SMBus device is waiting to generate a Master START, the START will be generated following the
bus free timeout.

20.3. SMBus Transfer Modes
The SMBus0 interface may be configured to operate as a master and/or a slave. At any particular time, the interface
will be operating in one of the following modes: Master Transmitter, Master Receiver, Slave Transmitter, or Slave
Receiver. See Table 20.1 for transfer mode status decoding using the SMB0STA status register. The following mode
descriptions illustrate an interrupt-driven SMBus0 application; SMBus0 may alternatively be operated in polled
mode.
20.3.1. Master Transmitter Mode
Serial data is transmitted on SDA while the serial clock is output on SCL. SMBus0 generates a START condition and
then transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave device and the data direction bit. In this case the
data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 0 to indicate a "WRITE" operation. The SMBus0 interface transmits one or
more bytes of serial data, waiting for an acknowledge (ACK) from the slave after each byte. To indicate the end of the
serial transfer, SMBus0 generates a STOP condition.
20.3.2. Master Receiver Mode
Serial data is received on SDA while the serial clock is output on SCL. The SMBus0 interface generates a START
followed by the first data 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 to indicate a "READ" operation. The SMBus0 interface receives serial data from
the slave and generates the clock on SCL. After each byte is received, SMBus0 generates an ACK or NACK depend-
ing on the state of the AA bit in register SMB0CN. SMBus0 generates a STOP condition to indicate the end of the
serial transfer.

20.3.3. Slave Transmitter Mode
Serial data is transmitted on SDA while the serial clock is received on SCL. The SMBus0 interface receives a START
followed by data byte containing the slave address and direction bit. If the received slave address matches the address
held in register SMB0ADR, the SMBus0 interface generates an ACK. SMBus0 will also ACK if the general call
address (0x00) is received and the General Call Address Enable bit (SMB0ADR.0) is set to logic 1. In this case the
data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 1 to indicate a "READ" operation. The SMBus0 interface receives the clock on
SCL and transmits one or more bytes of serial data, waiting for an ACK from the master after each byte. SMBus0
exits slave mode after receiving a STOP condition from the master.
20.3.4. Slave Receiver Mode
Serial data is received on SDA while the serial clock is received on SCL. The SMBus0 interface receives a START
followed by data byte containing the slave address and direction bit. If the received slave address matches the address
held in register SMB0ADR, the interface generates an ACK. SMBus0 will also ACK if the general call address
(0x00) is received and the General Call Address Enable bit (SMB0ADR.0) is set to logic 1. In this case the data direc-
tion bit (R/W) will be logic 0 to indicate a "WRITE" operation. The SMBus0 interface receives one or more bytes of
serial data; after each byte is received, the interface transmits an ACK or NACK depending on the state of the AA bit
in SMB0CN. SMBus0 exits Slave Receiver Mode after receiving a STOP condition from the master.

20.4. SMBus Special Function Registers
The SMBus0 serial interface is accessed and controlled through five SFR’s: SMB0CN Control Register, SMB0CR
Clock Rate Register, SMB0ADR Address Register, SMB0DAT Data Register and SMB0STA Status Register. The
five special function registers related to the operation of the SMBus0 interface are described in the following sec-
tions.
20.4.1. Control Register
The SMBus0 Control register SMB0CN is used to configure and control the SMBus0 interface. All of the bits in the
register can be read or written by software. Two of the control bits are also affected by the SMBus0 hardware. The
Serial Interrupt flag (SI, SMB0CN.3) is set to logic 1 by the hardware when a valid serial interrupt condition occurs.
It can only be cleared by software. The Stop flag (STO, SMB0CN.4) is set to logic 1 by software. It is cleared to logic
0 by hardware when a STOP condition is detected on the bus.
Setting the ENSMB flag to logic 1 enables the SMBus0 interface. Clearing the ENSMB flag to logic 0 disables the
SMBus0 interface and removes it from the bus. Momentarily clearing the ENSMB flag and then resetting it to logic 1
will reset SMBus0 communication. However, ENSMB should not be used to temporarily remove a device from the
bus since the bus state information will be lost. Instead, the Assert Acknowledge (AA) flag should be used to tempo-
rarily remove the device from the bus (see description of AA flag below).
Setting the Start flag (STA, SMB0CN.5) to logic 1 will put SMBus0 in a master mode. If the bus is free, SMBus0 will
generate a START condition. If the bus is not free, SMBus0 waits for a STOP condition to free the bus and then gen-
erates a START condition after a 5 µs delay per the SMB0CR value (In accordance with the SMBus protocol, the
SMBus0 interface also considers the bus free if the bus is idle for 50 µs and no STOP condition was recognized). If
STA is set to logic 1 while SMBus0 is in master mode and one or more bytes have been transferred, a repeated
START condition will be generated.
When the Stop flag (STO, SMB0CN.4) is set to logic 1 while the SMBus0 interface is in master mode, the interface
generates a STOP condition. In a slave mode, the STO flag may be used to recover from an error condition. In this
case, a STOP condition is not generated on the bus, but the SMBus hardware behaves as if a STOP condition has been
received and enters the "not addressed" slave receiver mode. Note that this simulated STOP will not cause the bus to
appear free to SMBus0. The bus will remain occupied until a STOP appears on the bus or a Bus Free Timeout occurs.
Hardware automatically clears the STO flag to logic 0 when a STOP condition is detected on the bus.
The Serial Interrupt flag (SI, SMB0CN.3) is set to logic 1 by hardware when the SMBus0 interface enters one of 27
possible states. If interrupts are enabled for the SMBus0 interface, an interrupt request is generated when the SI flag
is set. The SI flag must be cleared by software.
Important Note: If SI is set to logic 1 while the SCL line is low, the clock-low period of the serial clock will be
stretched and the serial transfer is suspended until SI is cleared to logic 0. A high level on SCL is not affected by the
setting of the SI flag.
The Assert Acknowledge flag (AA, SMB0CN.2) is used to set the level of the SDA line during the acknowledge
clock cycle on the SCL line. Setting the AA flag to logic 1 will cause an ACK (low level on SDA) to be sent during
the acknowledge cycle if the device has been addressed. Setting the AA flag to logic 0 will cause a NACK (high level
on SDA) to be sent during acknowledge cycle. After the transmission of a byte in slave mode, the slave can be tempo-
rarily removed from the bus by clearing the AA flag. The slave's own address and general call address will be
ignored. To resume operation on the bus, the AA flag must be reset to logic 1 to allow the slave's address to be recog-
nized.
Setting the SMBus0 Free Timer Enable bit (FTE, SMB0CN.1) to logic 1 enables the timer in SMB0CR. When SCL
goes high, the timer in SMB0CR counts up. A timer overflow indicates a free bus timeout: if SMBus0 is waiting to

C8051F124/5/6/7
generate a START, it will do so after this timeout. The bus free period should be less than 50 µs (see Figure 20.9,
SMBus0 Clock Rate Register).
When the TOE bit in SMB0CN is set to logic 1, Timer 3 is used to detect SCL low timeouts. If Timer 3 is enabled
(see Section “24.2. Timer 2, Timer 3, and Timer 4” on page 293), Timer 3 is forced to reload when SCL is high,
and forced to count when SCL is low. With Timer 3 enabled and configured to overflow after 25 ms (and TOE set), a
Timer 3 overflow indicates a SCL low timeout; the Timer 3 interrupt service routine can then be used to reset
SMBus0 communication in the event of an SCL low timeout.

free, the START is transmitted after a STOP is received.) If STA is set after one or more bytes have
been transmitted or received and before a STOP is received, a repeated START condition is transmit-
ted.
Bit4: STO: SMBus Stop Flag.
0: No STOP condition is transmitted.
1: Setting STO to logic 1 causes a STOP condition to be transmitted. When a STOP condition is
received, hardware clears STO to logic 0. If both STA and STO are set, a STOP condition is transmit-
ted followed by a START condition. In slave mode, setting the STO flag causes SMBus to behave as
if a STOP condition was received.
Bit3: SI: SMBus Serial Interrupt Flag.
This bit is set by hardware when one of 27 possible SMBus0 states is entered. (Status code 0xF8 does
not cause SI to be set.) When the SI interrupt is enabled, setting this bit causes the CPU to vector to
the SMBus interrupt service routine. This bit is not automatically cleared by hardware and must be
cleared by software.
Bit2: AA: SMBus Assert Acknowledge Flag.
This bit defines the type of acknowledge returned during the acknowledge cycle on the SCL line.

Figure 20.9. SMB0CR: SMBus0 Clock Rate Register
Bits7-0: SMB0CR.[7:0]: SMBus0 Clock Rate Preset
The SMB0CR Clock Rate register controls the frequency of the serial clock SCL in master mode. The
8-bit word stored in the SMB0CR Register preloads a dedicated 8-bit timer. The timer counts up, and
when it rolls over to 0x00, the SCL logic state toggles.
The SMB0CR setting should be bounded by the following equation , where SMB0CR is the unsigned
8-bit value in register SMB0CR, and SYSCLK is the system clock frequency in MHz:
The resulting SCL signal high and low times are given by the following equations, where SYSCLK is
the system clock frequency in Hz:

20.4.3. Data Register
The SMBus0 Data register SMB0DAT holds a byte of serial data to be transmitted or one that has just been received.
Software can read or write to this register while the SI flag is set to logic 1; software should not attempt to access the
SMB0DAT register when the SMBus is enabled and the SI flag reads logic 0 since the hardware may be in the pro-
cess of shifting a byte of data in 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.
Therefore, SMB0DAT always contains the last data byte present on the bus. In the event of lost arbitration, the transi-
tion from master transmitter to slave receiver is made with the correct data in SMB0DAT.
20.4.4. Address Register
The SMB0ADR Address register holds the slave address for the SMBus0 interface. In slave mode, the seven most-
significant bits hold the 7-bit slave address. The least significant bit (Bit0) is used to enable the recognition of the
general call address (0x00). If Bit0 is set to logic 1, the general call address will be recognized. Otherwise, the general
call address is ignored. The contents of this register are ignored when SMBus0 is operating in master mode.
Figure 20.10. SMB0DAT: SMBus0 Data Register
Bits7-0: SMB0DAT: SMBus0 Data.
The SMB0DAT register contains a byte of data to be transmitted on the SMBus0 serial interface or a
byte that has just been received on the SMBus0 serial interface. The CPU can read from or write to
this register whenever the SI serial interrupt flag (SMB0CN.3) is set to logic 1. When the SI flag is
not set, the system may be in the process of shifting data and the CPU should not attempt to access
this register.

20.4.5. Status Register
The SMB0STA Status register holds an 8-bit status code indicating the current state of the SMBus0 interface. There
are 28 possible SMBus0 states, each with a corresponding unique status code. The five most significant bits of the
status code vary while the three least-significant bits of a valid status code are fixed at zero when SI = ‘1’. Therefore,
all possible status codes are multiples of eight. This facilitates the use of status codes in software as an index used to
branch to appropriate service routines (allowing 8 bytes of code to service the state or jump to a more extensive ser-
vice routine).
For the purposes of user software, the contents of the SMB0STA register is only defined when the SI flag is logic 1.
Software should never write to the SMB0STA register; doing so will yield indeterminate results. The 28 SMBus0
states, along with their corresponding status codes, are given in Table 1.1.
Figure 20.12. SMB0STA: SMBus0 Status Register
Bits7-3: STA7-STA3: SMBus0 Status Code.
These bits contain the SMBus0 Status Code. There are 28 possible status codes; each status code cor-
responds to a single SMBus state. A valid status code is present in SMB0STA when the SI flag
(SMB0CN.3) is set to logic 1. The content of SMB0STA is not defined when the SI flag is logic 0.
Writing to the SMB0STA register at any time will yield indeterminate results.
Bits2-0: STA2-STA0: The three least significant bits of SMB0STA are always read as logic 0 when the SI flag
is logic 1.

21. ENHANCED SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE (SPI0)
The Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0) provides access to a flexible, full-duplex synchronous serial bus.
SPI0 can operate as a master or slave device in both 3-wire or 4-wire modes, and supports multiple masters and slaves
on a single SPI bus. The slave-select (NSS) signal can be configured as an input to select SPI0 in slave mode, or to
disable Master Mode operation in a multi-master environment, avoiding contention on the SPI bus when more than
one master attempts simultaneous data transfers. NSS can also be configured as a chip-select output in master mode,
or disabled for 3-wire operation. Additional general purpose port I/O pins can be used to select multiple slave devices
in master mode.

21.1. Signal Descriptions
The four signals used by SPI0 (MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS) are described below.
21.1.1. Master Out, Slave In (MOSI)
The master-out, slave-in (MOSI) signal is an output from a master device and an input to slave devices. It is used to
serially transfer data from the master to the slave. This signal is an output when SPI0 is operating as a master and an
input when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit first. When configured as a master,
MOSI is driven by the MSB of the shift register in both 3- and 4-wire mode.
21.1.2. Master In, Slave Out (MISO)
The master-in, slave-out (MISO) signal is an output from a slave device and an input to the master device. It is used
to serially transfer data from the slave to the master. This signal is an input when SPI0 is operating as a master and an
output when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit first. The MISO pin is placed in a
high-impedance state when the SPI module is disabled and when the SPI operates in 4-wire mode as a slave that is
not selected. When acting as a slave in 3-wire mode, MISO is always driven by the MSB of the shift register.
21.1.3. Serial Clock (SCK)
The serial clock (SCK) signal is an output from the master device and an input to slave devices. It is used to synchro-
nize the transfer of data between the master and slave on the MOSI and MISO lines. SPI0 generates this signal when
operating as a master. The SCK signal is ignored by a SPI slave when the slave is not selected (NSS = 1) in 4-wire
slave mode.
21.1.4. Slave Select (NSS)
The function of the slave-select (NSS) signal is dependent on the setting of the NSSMD1 and NSSMD0 bits in the
SPI0CN register. There are three possible modes that can be selected with these bits:
1. NSSMD[1:0] = 00: 3-Wire Master or 3-Wire Slave Mode: SPI0 operates in 3-wire mode, and NSS is
disabled. When operating as a slave device, SPI0 is always selected in 3-wire mode. Since no select signal is
present, SPI0 must be the only slave on the bus in 3-wire mode. This is intended for point-to-point commu-
nication between a master and one slave.
2. NSSMD[1:0] = 01: 4-Wire Slave or Multi-Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is
enabled as an input. When operating as a slave, NSS selects the SPI0 device. When operating as a master, a
1-to-0 transition of the NSS signal disables the master function of SPI0 so that multiple master devices can
be used on the same SPI bus.
3. NSSMD[1:0] = 1x: 4-Wire Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is enabled as an out-
put. The setting of NSSMD0 determines what logic level the NSS pin will output. This configuration should
only be used when operating SPI0 as a master device.
See Figure 21.2, Figure 21.3, and Figure 21.4 for typical connection diagrams of the various operational modes. Note
that the setting of NSSMD bits affects the pinout of the device. When in 3-wire master or 3-wire slave mode, the
NSS pin will not be mapped by the crossbar. In all other modes, the NSS signal will be mapped to a pin on the device.
See Section “19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT”onpage215 for general purpose port I/O and crossbar information.

C8051F124/5/6/7
21.2. SPI0 Master Mode Operation
A SPI master device initiates all data transfers on a SPI bus. SPI0 is placed in master mode by setting the Master
Enable flag (MSTEN, SPI0CN.6). Writing a byte of data to the SPI0 data register (SPI0DAT) when in master mode
writes to the transmit buffer. If the SPI shift register is empty, the byte in the transmit buffer is moved to the shift reg-
ister, and a data transfer begins. The SPI0 master immediately shifts out the data serially on the MOSI line while pro-
viding 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 is set. While the SPI0 master transfers data to a slave on
the MOSI line, the addressed SPI slave device simultaneously transfers the contents of its shift register to the SPI
master on the MISO line in a full-duplex operation. Therefore, the SPIF flag serves as both a transmit-complete and
receive-data-ready flag. The data byte received from the slave is transferred MSB-first into the master's shift register.
When a byte is fully shifted into the register, it is moved to the receive buffer where it can be read by the processor by
reading SPI0DAT.
When configured as a master, SPI0 can operate in one of three different modes: multi-master mode, 3-wire single-
master mode, and 4-wire single-master mode. The default, multi-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) =
0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In this mode, NSS is an input to the device, and is used to disable the master SPI0
when another master is accessing the bus. When NSS is pulled low in this mode, MSTEN (SPI0CN.6) and SPIEN
(SPI0CN.0) are set to 0 to disable the SPI master device, and a Mode Fault is generated (MODF, SPI0CN.5 = 1).
Mode Fault will generate an interrupt if enabled. SPI0 must be manually re-enabled in software under these circum-
stances. In multi-master systems, devices will typically default to being slave devices while they are not acting as the
system master device. In multi-master mode, slave devices can be addressed individually (if needed) using general-
purpose I/O pins. Figure 21.2 shows a connection diagram between two master devices in multiple-master mode.
3-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. In this mode,
NSS is not used, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Any slave devices that must be
addressed in this mode should be selected using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 21.3 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 con-
trolled (in software) with the bit NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2). Additional slave devices can be addressed using general-pur-
pose I/O pins. Figure 21.4 shows a connection diagram for a master device in 4-wire master mode and two slave
devices.

21.3. SPI0 Slave Mode Operation
When SPI0 is enabled and not configured as a master, it will operate as a SPI slave. As a slave, bytes are shifted in
through the MOSI pin and out through the MISO pin by a master device controlling the SCK signal. A bit counter in
the SPI0 logic counts SCK edges. When 8 bits have been shifted through the shift register, the SPIF flag is set to logic
1, and the byte is copied into the receive buffer. Data is read from the receive buffer by reading SPI0DAT. A slave
device cannot initiate transfers. Data to be transferred to the master device is pre-loaded into the shift register by writ-
ing to SPI0DAT. Writes to SPI0DAT are double-buffered, and are placed in the transmit buffer first. If the shift regis-
ter is empty, the contents of the transmit buffer will immediately be transferred into the shift register. When the shift
register already contains data, the SPI will load the shift register with the transmit buffer’s contents after the last SCK
edge of the next (or current) SPI transfer.
When configured as a slave, SPI0 can be configured for 4-wire or 3-wire operation. The default, 4-wire slave mode,
is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In 4-wire mode, the NSS signal is routed to
a port pin and configured as a digital input. SPI0 is enabled when NSS is logic 0, and disabled when NSS is logic 1.
The bit counter is reset on a falling edge of NSS. Note that the NSS signal must be driven low at least 2 system clocks
before the first active edge of SCK for each byte transfer. Figure 21.4 shows a connection diagram between two slave
devices in 4-wire slave mode and a master device.
3-wire slave mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. NSS is not used in this
mode, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Since there is no way of uniquely addressing
the device in 3-wire slave mode, SPI0 must be the only slave device present on the bus. It is important to note that in
3-wire slave mode there is no external means of resetting the bit counter that determines when a full byte has been
received. The bit counter can only be reset by disabling and re-enabling SPI0 with the SPIEN bit. Figure 21.3 shows
a connection diagram between a slave device in 3-wire slave mode and a master device.
21.4. SPI0 Interrupt Sources
When SPI0 interrupts are enabled, the following four flags will generate an interrupt when they are set to logic 1:
Note that all of the following bits must be cleared by software.
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.

21.5. Serial Clock Timing
Four combinations of serial clock phase and polarity can be selected using the clock control bits in the SPI0 Configu-
ration 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 21.5. For slave mode, the clock and data relationships are shown in Figure 21.6 and Figure 21.7.
Note that CKPHA must be set to ‘0’ on both the master and slave SPI when communicating between two of the fol-
lowing devices: C8051F04x, C8051F06x, C8051F12x, C8051F31x, C8051F32x, and C8051F33x
The SPI0 Clock Rate Register (SPI0CKR) as shown in Figure 21.10 controls the master mode serial clock frequency.
This register is ignored when operating in slave mode. When the SPI is configured as a master, the maximum data
transfer rate (bits/sec) is one-half the system clock frequency or 12.5 MHz, whichever is slower. When the SPI is con-
figured as a slave, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) for full-duplex operation is 1/10 the system clock fre-
quency, provided that the master issues SCK, NSS (in 4-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 slave and does not need to receive data from the slave (i.e. half-duplex operation),
the SPI slave can receive data at a maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) of 1/4 the system clock frequency. This is
provided that the master issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s system clock.

21.6. SPI Special Function Registers
SPI0 is accessed and controlled through four special function registers in the system controller: SPI0CN Control Reg-
ister, SPI0DAT Data Register, SPI0CFG Configuration Register, and SPI0CKR Clock Rate Register. The four special
function registers related to the operation of the SPI0 Bus are described in the following figures.
Figure 21.8. SPI0CFG: SPI0 Configuration Register
Bit 7: SPIBSY: SPI Busy (read only).
This bit is set to logic 1 when a SPI transfer is in progress (Master or slave Mode).
Bit6: MSTEN:MasterModeEnable.
0: Disable master mode. Operate in slave mode.
1: Enable master mode. Operate as a master.
Bit 5: CKPHA: SPI0 Clock Phase.
This bit controls the SPI0 clock phase.
0: Data centered on first edge of SCK period.†
1: Data centered on second edge of SCK period.†
Bit 4: CKPOL: SPI0 Clock Polarity.
This bit controls the SPI0 clock polarity.
0: SCK line low in idle state.
1: SCK line high in idle state.
Bit 3: SLVSEL: Slave Selected Flag (read only).
This bit is set to logic 1 whenever the NSS pin is low indicating SPI0 is the selected slave. It is
cleared to logic 0 when NSS is high (slave not selected). This bit does not indicate the instantaneous
value at the NSS pin, but rather a de-glitched version of the pin input.
Bit 2: NSSIN: NSS Instantaneous Pin Input (read only).
This bit mimics the instantaneous value that is present on the NSS port pin at the time that the register
is read. This input is not de-glitched.
Bit 1: SRMT: Shift Register Empty (Valid in Slave Mode, read only).
This bit will be set to logic 1 when all data has been transferred in/out of the shift register, and there is
no new information available to read from the transmit buffer or write to the receive buffer. It returns
to logic 0 when a data byte is transferred to the shift register from the transmit buffer or by a transition
on SCK.
NOTE: SRMT = 1 when in Master Mode.
Bit 0: RXBMT: Receive Buffer Empty (Valid in Slave Mode, read only).
This bit will be set to logic 1 when the receive buffer has been read and contains no new information.
If there is new information available in the receive buffer that has not been read, this bit will return to
logic 0.
NOTE:RXBMT=1wheninMasterMode.
†In slave mode, data on MOSI is sampled in the center of each data bit. In master mode, data on MISO is sampled
one SYSCLK before the end of each data bit, to provide maximum settling time for the slave device. See Table 21.1
for timing parameters.

Bit 7: SPIF: SPI0 Interrupt Flag.
This bit is set to logic 1 by hardware at the end of a data transfer. If interrupts are enabled, setting this
bit causes the CPU to vector to the SPI0 interrupt service routine. This bit is not automatically cleared
by hardware. It must be cleared by software.
Bit 6: WCOL: Write Collision Flag.
This bit is set to logic 1 by hardware (and generates a SPI0 interrupt) to indicate a write to the SPI0
data register was attempted while a data transfer was in progress. It must be cleared by software.
Bit5: MODF:ModeFaultFlag.
This bit is set to logic 1 by hardware (and generates a SPI0 interrupt) when a master mode collision is
detected (NSS is low, MSTEN = 1, and NSSMD[1:0] = 01). This bit is not automatically cleared by
hardware. It must be cleared by software.
Bit 4: RXOVRN: Receive Overrun Flag (Slave Mode only).
This bit is set to logic 1 by hardware (and generates a SPI0 interrupt) when the receive buffer still
holds unread data from a previous transfer and the last bit of the current transfer is shifted into the
SPI0 shift register. This bit is not automatically cleared by hardware. It must be cleared by software.
Bits 3-2: NSSMD1-NSSMD0: Slave Select Mode.
Selects between the following NSS operation modes:
(See Section “21.2. SPI0 Master Mode Operation” on page 251 and Section “21.3. SPI0 Slave
Mode Operation” on page 253).
00: 3-Wire Slave or 3-wire Master Mode. NSS signal is not routed to a port pin.
01: 4-Wire Slave or Multi-Master Mode (Default). NSS is always an input to the device.
1x: 4-Wire Single-Master Mode. NSS signal is mapped as an output from the device and will assume
the value of NSSMD0.
Bit1: TXBMT:TransmitBufferEmpty.
This bit will be set to logic 0 when new data has been written to the transmit buffer. When data in the
transmit buffer is transferred to the SPI shift register, this bit will be set to logic 1, indicating that it is
safe to write a new byte to the transmit buffer.
Bit0: SPIEN:SPI0Enable.
This bit enables/disables the SPI.
0: SPI disabled.
1: SPI enabled.

22. UART0
UART0 is an enhanced serial port with frame error detection and address recognition hardware. UART0 may operate
in full-duplex asynchronous or half-duplex synchronous modes, and mutiproccessor communication is fully sup-
ported. Receive data is buffered in a holding register, allowing UART0 to start reception of a second incoming data
byte before software has finished reading the previous data byte. A Receive Overrun bit indicates when new received
data is latched into the receive buffer before the previously received byte has been read.
UART0 is accessed via its associated SFR’s, Serial Control (SCON0) and Serial Data Buffer (SBUF0). The single
SBUF0 location provides access to both transmit and receive registers. Reading SCON0 accesses the Receive register
and writing SCON0 accesses the Transmit register.
UART0 may be operated in polled or interrupt mode. UART0 has two sources of interrupts: a Transmit Interrupt flag,
TI0 (SCON0.1) set when transmission of a data byte is complete, and a Receive Interrupt flag, RI0 (SCON0.0) set
when reception of a data byte is complete. UART0 interrupt flags are not cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors
to the interrupt service routine; they must be cleared manually by software. This allows software to determine the
cause of the UART0 interrupt (transmit complete or receive complete).

22.1. UART0 Operational Modes
UART0 provides four operating modes (one synchronous and three asynchronous) selected by setting configuration
bits in the SCON0 register. These four modes offer different baud rates and communication protocols. The four
modes are summarized in Table 22.1.
22.1.1. Mode 0: Synchronous Mode
Mode 0 provides synchronous, half-duplex communication. Serial data is transmitted and received on the RX0 pin.
The TX0 pin provides the shift clock for both transmit and receive. The MCU must be the master since it generates
the shift clock for transmission in both directions (see the interconnect diagram in Figure 22.3).
Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. Eight data bits are transferred
LSB first (see the timing diagram in Figure 22.2), and the TI0 Transmit Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of
the eighth bit time. Data reception begins when the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to logic 1 and the RI0
Receive Interrupt Flag (SCON0.0) is cleared. One cycle after the eighth bit is shifted in, the RI0 flag is set and recep-
tion stops until software clears the RI0 bit. An interrupt will occur if enabled when either TI0 or RI0 are set.
The Mode 0 baud rate is SYSCLK / 12. RX0 is forced to open-drain in Mode 0, and an external pull-up will typically
be required.

22.1.2. Mode 1: 8-Bit UART, Variable Baud Rate
Mode 1 provides standard asynchronous, full duplex communication using a total of 10 bits per data byte: one start
bit, eight data bits (LSB first), and one stop bit. Data are transmitted 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 an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit Interrupt
Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data reception can begin
any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to 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 SM20
is logic 1, the stop bit must be logic 1.
Iftheseconditionsaremet,theeightbitsofdataisstoredinSBUF0,thestopbitisstoredinRB80andtheRI0flagis
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 are set.
The baud rate generated in Mode 1 is a function of timer overflow, shown in Equation 22.1 and Equation 22.2.
UART0 can use Timer 1 operating in 8-Bit Auto-Reload Mode, or Timer 2, 3, or 4 operating in Auto-reload Mode to
generate the baud rate (note that the TX and RX clocks are selected separately). On each timer overflow event (a roll-
over from all ones - (0xFF for Timer 1, 0xFFFF for Timer 2) - to zero) a clock is sent to the baud rate logic.
Timers 2, 3, and 4 are selected as the baud rate source with bits in the SSTA0 register (see Figure 22.9). The transmit
baud rate clock is selected using the S0TCLK1 and S0TCLK0 bits, and the receive baud rate clock is selected using
the S0RCLK1 and S0RCLK0 bits.
The Mode 1 baud rate equations are shown below, where T1M is bit4 of register CKCON, TH1 is the 8-bit reload reg-
ister for Timer 1, and [RCAPnH , RCAPnL] is the 16-bit reload register for Timer 2, 3, or 4.

22.1.3. Mode 2: 9-Bit UART, Fixed Baud Rate
Mode 2 provides asynchronous, full-duplex communication using a total of eleven bits per data byte: a start bit, 8 data
bits (LSB first), a programmable ninth data bit, and a stop bit. Mode 2 supports multiprocessor communications and
hardware address recognition (see Section 22.2). On transmit, the ninth data bit is determined by the value in TB80
(SCON0.3). It can be assigned the value of the parity flag P in the PSW or used in multiprocessor communications.
On receive, the ninth data bit goes into RB80 (SCON0.2) and the stop bit is ignored.
Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit Interrupt
Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data reception can begin
any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to logic 1. After the stop bit is received, the data byte
will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if RI0 is logic 0 and one of the following requirements are met:
1. SM20 is logic 0
2. SM20 is logic 1, the received 9th bit is logic 1, and the received address matches the UART0 address as
described in Section 22.2.
If the above conditions are satisfied, the eight bits of data are stored in SBUF0, the ninth 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 are set.
The baud rate in Mode 2 is either SYSCLK / 32 or SYSCLK / 64, according to the value of the SMOD0 bit in register
SSTA0.

22.2. Multiprocessor Communications
Modes 2 and 3 support multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more slave processors
by special use of the ninth data bit and the built-in UART0 address recognition hardware. When a master processor
wants to transmit to one or more slaves, it first sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs
from a data byte in that its ninth bit is logic 1; in a data byte, the ninth bit is always set to logic 0. UART0 will recog-
nize as “valid” (i.e., capable of causing an interrupt) two types of addresses: (1) a masked address and (2) a broadcast
address at any given time. Both are described below.
22.2.1. Configuration of a Masked Address
The UART0 address is configured via two SFR’s: SADDR0 (Serial Address) and SADEN0 (Serial Address Enable).
SADEN0 sets the bit mask for the address held in SADDR0: bits set to logic 1 in SADEN0 correspond to bits in
SADDR0 that are checked against the received address byte; bits set to logic 0 in SADEN0 correspond to “don’t
care” bits in SADDR0.
Setting the SM20 bit (SCON0.5) configures UART0 such that when a stop bit is received, UART0 will generate an
interrupt only if the ninth bit is logic 1 (RB80 = ‘1’) and the received data byte matches the UART0 slave address.
Following the received address interrupt, the slave will clear its SM20 bit to enable interrupts on the reception of the
following data byte(s). Once the entire message is received, the addressed slave resets its SM20 bit to ignore all trans-
missions until it receives the next address byte. While SM20 is logic 1, UART0 ignores all bytes that do not match the
UART0 address and include a ninth bit that is logic 1.
22.2.2. Broadcast Addressing
Multiple addresses can be assigned to a single slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple slaves,
thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The broadcast address is the logi-
cal OR of registers SADDR0 and SADEN0, and ‘0’s of the result are treated as “don’t cares”. Typically a broadcast
address of 0xFF (hexadecimal) is acknowledged by all slaves, assuming “don’t care” bits as ‘1’s. The master proces-
sor 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)..
Note in the above examples 4, 5, and 6, each slave would recognize as “valid” an address of 0xFF as a broadcast
address. Also note that examples 4, 5, and 6 uses the same SADDR0 and SADEN0 register values as shown in the
examples 1, 2, and 3 respectively (slaves #1, 2, and 3). Thus, a master could address each slave device individually
using a masked address, and also broadcast to all three slave devices. For example, if a Master were to send an
address “11110101”, only slave #1 would recognize the address as valid. If a master were to then send an address of
“11111111”, all three slave devices would recognize the address as a valid broadcast address.
Example 1, SLAVE #1 Example 2, SLAVE #2 Example 3, SLAVE #3
SADDR0 = 00110101 SADDR0 = 00110101 SADDR0 = 00110101
SADEN0 = 00001111 SADEN0 = 11110011 SADEN0 = 11000000
UART0 Address = xxxx0101 UART0 Address = 0011xx01 UART0 Address = 00xxxxxx
Example 4, SLAVE #1 Example 5, SLAVE #2 Example 6, SLAVE #3
SADDR0 = 00110101 SADDR0 = 00110101 SADDR0 = 00110101
SADEN0 = 00001111 SADEN0 = 11110011 SADEN0 = 11000000
Broadcast Address = 00111111 Broadcast Address = 11110111 Broadcast Address = 11110101
Where all ZEROES in the Broadcast address are don’t cares.

22.3. Frame and Transmission Error Detection
All Modes:
The Transmit Collision bit (TXCOL0 bit in register SCON0) reads ‘1’ if user software writes data to the SBUF0 reg-
ister while a transmit is in progress. Note that the TXCOL0 bit is also used as the SM20 bit when written by user soft-
ware.
Modes1,2,and3:
The Receive Overrun bit (RXOVR0 in register SCON0) reads ‘1’ if a new data byte is latched into the receive buffer
before software has read the previous byte. Note that the RXOVR0 bit is also used as the SM10 bit when written by
user software. The Frame Error bit (FE0 in register SCON0) reads ‘1’ if an invalid (low) STOP bit is detected. Note
that the FE0 bit is also used as the SM00 bit when written by user software.

23. UART1
UART1 is an asynchronous, full duplex serial port offering modes 1 and 3 of the standard 8051 UART. Enhanced
baud rate support allows a wide range of clock sources to generate standard baud rates (details in Section
“23.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation” on page 276). Received data buffering allows UART1 to start reception
of a second incoming data byte before software has finished reading the previous data byte.
UART1 has two associated SFRs: Serial Control Register 1 (SCON1) and Serial Data Buffer 1 (SBUF1). The single
SBUF1 location provides access to both transmit and receive registers. Reading SBUF1 accesses the buffered
Receive register; writing SBUF1 accesses the Transmit register.
With UART1 interrupts enabled, an interrupt is generated each time a transmit is completed (TI1 is set in SCON1), or
a data byte has been received (RI1 is set in SCON1). The UART1 interrupt flags are not cleared by hardware when
the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine. They must be cleared manually by software, allowing software to
determine the cause of the UART1 interrupt (transmit complete or receive complete).

23.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation
The UART1 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 23.2), 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.
Timer 1 should be configured for Mode 2, 8-bit auto-reload (see Section “24.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/Timer
with Auto-Reload” on page 287). The Timer 1 reload value should be set so that overflows will occur at two times
the desired baud rate. Note that Timer 1 may be clocked by one of five sources: SYSCLK, SYSCLK / 4, SYSCLK /
12, SYSCLK / 48, or the external oscillator clock / 8. For any given Timer 1 clock source, the UART1 baud rate is
determined by Equation 23.1.
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 “24.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 285.Aquickref-
erence for typical baud rates and system clock frequencies is given in Table 23.1 through Table 23.5. Note that the
internal oscillator or PLL may still generate the system clock when the external oscillator is driving Timer 1 (see Sec-
tion “24.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 285 for more details).

23.2. Operational Modes
UART1 provides standard asynchronous, full duplex communication. The UART mode (8-bit or 9-bit) is selected by
the S1MODE bit (SCON1.7). Typical UART connection options are shown below.
23.2.1. 8-Bit UART
8-Bit UART mode uses a total of 10 bits per data byte: one start bit, eight data bits (LSB first), and one stop bit. Data
are transmitted LSB first from the TX1 pin and received at the RX1 pin. On receive, the eight data bits are stored in
SBUF1 and the stop bit goes into RB81 (SCON1.2).
Data transmission begins when software writes a data byte to the SBUF1 register. The TI1 Transmit Interrupt Flag
(SCON1.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data reception can begin any
time after the REN1 Receive Enable bit (SCON1.4) is set to logic 1. After the stop bit is received, the data byte will
be loaded into the SBUF1 receive register if the following conditions are met: RI1 must be logic 0, and if MCE1 is
logic 1, the stop bit must be logic 1. In the event of a receive data overrun, the first received 8 bits are latched into the
SBUF1 receive register and the following overrun data bits are lost.
Iftheseconditionsaremet,theeightbitsofdataisstoredinSBUF1,thestopbitisstoredinRB81andtheRI1flagis
set. If these conditions are not met, SBUF1 and RB81 will not be loaded and the RI1 flag will not be set. An interrupt
will occur if enabled when either TI1 or RI1 is set.

23.2.2. 9-Bit UART
9-bit UART mode uses a total of eleven bits per data byte: a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), a programmable ninth
data bit, and a stop bit. The state of the ninth transmit data bit is determined by the value in TB81 (SCON1.3), which
is assigned by user software. It can be assigned the value of the parity flag (bit P in register PSW) for error detection,
or used in multiprocessor communications. On receive, the ninth data bit goes into RB81 (SCON1.2) and the stop bit
is ignored.
Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF1 register. The TI1 Transmit Interrupt
Flag (SCON1.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data reception can begin
any time after the REN1 Receive Enable bit (SCON1.4) is set to ‘1’. After the stop bit is received, the data byte will
be loaded into the SBUF1 receive register if the following conditions are met: (1) RI1 must be logic 0, and (2) if
MCE1 is logic 1, the 9th bit must be logic 1 (when MCE1 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 SBUF1, the ninth bit is stored in RB81, and the RI1 flag is
set to ‘1’. If the above conditions are not met, SBUF1 and RB81 will not be loaded and the RI1 flag will not be set to
‘1’. A UART1 interrupt will occur if enabled when either TI1 or RI1 is set to ‘1’.

23.3. Multiprocessor Communications
9-Bit UART mode supports multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more slave pro-
cessors by special use of the ninth data bit. When a master processor wants to transmit to one or more slaves, it first
sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs from a data byte in that its ninth bit is logic 1; in
a data byte, the ninth bit is always set to logic 0.
Setting the MCE1 bit (SCON.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 one (RB81 = 1) signifying an address byte has been
received. In the UART interrupt handler, software should compare the received address with the slave's own assigned
8-bit address. If the addresses match, the slave should clear its MCE1 bit to enable interrupts on the reception of the
following data byte(s). Slaves that weren't addressed leave their MCE1 bits set and do not generate interrupts on the
reception of the following data bytes, thereby ignoring the data. Once the entire message is received, the addressed
slave should reset its MCE1 bit to ignore all transmissions until it receives the next address byte.
Multiple addresses can be assigned to a single slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple slaves,
thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The master processor can be con-
figured 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).

24. TIMERS
Each MCU includes 5 counter/timers: Timer 0 and Timer 1 are 16-bit counter/timers compatible with those found in
the standard 8051. Timer 2, Timer 3, and Timer 4 are 16-bit auto-reload and capture counter/timers for use with the
ADC, DAC’s, square-wave generation, or for general-purpose use. These timers can be used to measure time inter-
vals, count external events and generate periodic interrupt requests. Timer 0 and Timer 1 are nearly identical and have
four primary modes of operation. Timer 3 offers 16-bit auto-reload and capture. Timers 2 and 4 are identical, and
offer not only 16-bit auto-reload and capture, but have the ability to produce a 50% duty-cycle square-wave (toggle
output) at an external port pin.
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 by which Timer 0 and/or Timer 1
may be clocked (See Figure 24.6 for pre-scaled clock selection).
Timer 0/1 may then be configured to use this pre-scaled clock signal or the system clock. Timer 2, 3, or 4 may be
clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8.
Timer 0 and Timer 1 may also be operated as counters. When functioning as a counter, a counter/timer register is
incremented on each high-to-low transition at the selected input pin. Events with a frequency of up to one-fourth the
system clock's frequency can be counted. The input signal need not be periodic, but it should be held at a given logic
level for at least two full system clock cycles to ensure the level is properly sampled.
24.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1
Each timer is implemented as 16-bit register accessed as two separate bytes: a low byte (TL0 or TL1) and a high byte
(TH0 or TH1). The Counter/Timer Control register (TCON) is used to enable Timer 0 and Timer 1 as well as indicate
their status. Timer 0 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET0 bit in the IE register (Section “12.7.5. Interrupt
Register Descriptions” on page 149); Timer 1 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET1 bit in the IE register
(Section 12.7.5). Both counter/timers operate in one of four primary modes selected by setting the Mode Select bits
T1M1-T0M0 in the Counter/Timer Mode register (TMOD). Each timer can be configured independently.
24.1.1. Mode 0: 13-bit Counter/Timer
Timer 0 and Timer 1 operate as 13-bit counter/timers in Mode 0. The following describes the configuration and oper-
ation of Timer 0. However, both timers operate identically, and Timer 1 is configured in the same manner as
described for Timer 0.
The TH0 register holds the eight MSBs of the 13-bit counter/timer. TL0 holds the five LSBs in bit positions TL0.4-
TL0.0. The three upper bits of TL0 (TL0.7-TL0.5) are indeterminate and should be masked out or ignored when read-
ing. 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 “19.1. Ports 0 through 3 and
the Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 217 for information on selecting and configuring external I/O pins). Clear-
ing C/T selects the clock defined by the T0M bit (CKCON.3). When T0M is set, Timer 0 is clocked by the system
Timer 0 and Timer 1 Modes: Timer 2, 3 and 4 Modes:
13-bit counter/timer 16-bit counter/timer with auto-reload
16-bit counter/timer 16-bit counter/timer with capture
8-bit counter/timer with auto-reload Toggle Output (Timer 2 and 4 only)
Two 8-bit counter/timers (Timer 0 only)

clock. When T0M is cleared, Timer 0 is clocked by the source selected by the Clock Scale bits in CKCON (see
Figure 24.6).
Setting the TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 (TMOD.3) is logic 0 or the input signal /INT0 is
logic-level 1. Setting GATE0 to ‘1’ allows the timer to be controlled by the external input signal /INT0 (see Section
“12.7.5. Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 149), facilitating pulse width measurements.
Setting TR0 does not force the timer to reset. The timer registers should be loaded with the desired initial value before
the timer is enabled.
TL1 and TH1 form the 13-bit register for Timer 1 in the same manner as described above for TL0 and TH0. Timer 1
is configured and controlled using the relevant TCON and TMOD bits just as with Timer 0. The input signal /INT1 is
used with Timer 1.
24.1.2. Mode 1: 16-bit Counter/Timer
Mode 1 operation is the same as Mode 0, except that the counter/timer registers use all 16 bits. The counter/timers are
enabled and configured in Mode 1 in the same manner as for Mode 0.

24.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload
Mode 2 configures Timer 0 and Timer 1 to operate as 8-bit counter/timers with automatic reload of the start value.
TL0 holds the count and TH0 holds the reload value. When the counter in TL0 overflows from 0xFF 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 initial-
ized 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 signal /INT0 is low.

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

24.2. Timer 2, Timer 3, and Timer 4
Timers 2, 3, and 4 are 16-bit counter/timers, each formed by two 8-bit SFR’s: TMRnL (low byte) and TMRnH (high
byte) where n = 2, 3, and 4 for timers 2, 3, and 4 respectively. Timers 2 and 4 feature auto-reload, capture, and toggle
output modes with the ability to count up or down. Timer 3 features auto-reload and capture modes, with the ability to
count up or down. Capture Mode and Auto-reload mode are selected using bits in the Timer 2, 3, and 4 Control regis-
ters (TMRnCN). Toggle output mode is selected using the Timer 2 or 4 Configuration registers (TMRnCF). These
timers may also be used to generate a square-wave at an external pin. As with Timers 0 and 1, Timers 2, 3, and 4 can
use either the system clock (divided by one, two, or twelve), external clock (divided by eight) or transitions on an
external input pin as its clock source. The Counter/Timer Select bit C/Tn bit (TMRnCN.1) configures the peripheral
as a counter or timer. Clearing C/Tn configures the Timer to be in a timer mode (i.e., the system clock or transitions
on an external pin as the input for the timer). When C/Tn is set to 1, the timer is configured as a counter (i.e., high-to-
low transitions at the Tn input pin increment (or decrement) the counter/timer register. Timer 3 and Timer 2 share the
T2 input pin. Refer to Section “19.1. Ports 0 through 3 and the Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 217 for
information on selecting and configuring external I/O pins for digital peripherals, such as the Tn pin. Timer 2 and 3
can be used to start an ADC Data Conversion and Timers 2, 3, and 4 can schedule DAC outputs. Only Timer 1 can be
used to generate baud rates for UART 1, and Timers 1, 2, 3, or 4 may be used to generate baud rates for UART 0.
Timer 2, 3, and 4 can use either SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 2, SYSCLK divided by 12, an external clock divided
by 8, or high-to-low transitions on the Tn input pin as its clock source when operating in Counter/Timer with Capture
mode. Clearing the C/Tn bit (TnCON.1) selects the system clock/external clock as the input for the timer. The Timer
Clock Select bits TnM0 and TnM1 in TMRnCF can be used to select the system clock undivided, system clock
divided by two, system clock divided by 12, or an external clock provided at the XTAL1/XTAL2 pins divided by 8
(see Figure 24.14). When C/Tn is set to logic 1, a high-to-low transition at the Tn input pin increments the counter/
timer register (i.e., configured as a counter).
24.2.1. Configuring Timer 2, 3, and 4 to Count Down
Timers 2, 3, and 4 have the ability to count down. When the timer’s Decrement Enable Bit (DCEN) in the Timer Con-
figuration Register (See Figure 24.14) is set to ‘1’, the timer can then count up or down. When DCEN = 1, the direc-
tion of the timer’s count is controlled by the TnEX pin’s logic level (Timer 3 shares the T2EX pin with Timer 2).
When TnEX = 1, the counter/timer will count up; when TnEX = 0, the counter/timer will count down. To use this fea-
ture, TnEX must be enabled in the digital crossbar and configured as a digital input.
Note: When DCEN = 1, other functions of the TnEX input (i.e., capture and auto-reload) are not available.
TnEX will only control the direction of the timer when DCEN = 1.

24.2.2. Capture Mode
In Capture Mode, Timer 2, 3, and 4 will operate as a 16-bit counter/timer with capture facility. When the Timer Exter-
nal Enable bit (found in the TMRnCN register) is set to ‘1’, a high-to-low transition on the TnEX input pin (Timer 3
shares the T2EX pin with Timer 2) causes the 16-bit value in the associated timer (THn, TLn) to be loaded into the
capture registers (RCAPnH, RCAPnL). If a capture is triggered in the counter/timer, the Timer External Flag
(TMRnCN.6) will be set to ‘1’ and an interrupt will occur if the interrupt is enabled. See Section “12.7. Interrupt
Handler” on page 146 for further information concerning the configuration of interrupt sources.
As the 16-bit timer register increments and overflows TMRnH:TMRnL, the TFn Timer Overflow/Underflow Flag
(TMRnCN.7) is set to ‘1’ and an interrupt will occur if the interrupt is enabled. The timer can be configured to count
down by setting the Decrement Enable Bit (TMRnCF.0) to ‘1’. This will cause the timer to decrement with every
timer clock/count event and underflow when the timer transitions from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF. Just as in overflows, the
Overflow/Underflow Flag (TFn) will be set to ‘1’, and an interrupt will occur if enabled.
Counter/Timer with Capture mode is selected by setting the Capture/Reload Select bit CP/RLn (TMRnCN.0) and the
Timer 2, 3, and 4 Run Control bit TRn (TnCON.2) to logic 1. The Timer 2, 3, and 4 respective External Enable
EXENn (TnCON.3) must also be set to logic 1 to enable captures. If EXENn is cleared, transitions on TnEX will be
ignored.

24.2.3. Auto-Reload Mode
In Auto-Reload Mode, the counter/timer can be configured to count up or down and cause an interrupt/flag to occur
upon an overflow/underflow event. When counting up, the counter/timer will set its overflow/underflow flag (TFn)
and cause an interrupt (if enabled) upon overflow/underflow, and the values in the Reload/Capture Registers
(RCAPnH and RCAPnL) are loaded into the timer and the timer is restarted. When the Timer External Enable Bit
(EXENn) bit is set to ‘1’ and the Decrement Enable Bit (DCEN) is ‘0’, a falling edge (‘1’-to-‘0’ transition) on the
TnEX pin will cause a timer reload. Note that timer overflows will also cause auto-reloads. When DCEN is set to ‘1’,
the state of the TnEX pin controls whether the counter/timer counts up (increments) or down (decrements), and will
not cause an auto-reload or interrupt event (Timer 3 shares the T2EX pin with Timer 2). See Section 24.2.1 for infor-
mation concerning configuration of a timer to count down.
When counting down, the counter/timer will set its overflow/underflow flag (TFn) and cause an interrupt (if enabled)
when the value in the TMRnH and TMRnL registers matches the 16-bit value in the Reload/Capture Registers
(RCAPnH and RCAPnL). This is considered an underflow event, and will cause the timer to load the value 0xFFFF.
The timer is automatically restarted when an underflow occurs.
Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload mode is selected by clearing the CP/RLn bit. Setting TRn to logic 1 enables and
starts the timer.
In Auto-Reload Mode, the External Flag (EXFn) toggles upon every overflow or underflow and does not cause an
interrupt. The EXFn flag can be used as the most significant bit (MSB) of a 17-bit counter.
.
24.2.4. Toggle Output Mode (Timer 2 and Timer 4 Only)
Timers 2 and 4 have the capability to toggle the state of their respective output port pins (T2 or T4) to produce a 50%
duty cycle waveform output. The port pin state will change upon the overflow or underflow of the respective timer
(depending on whether the timer is counting up or down). The toggle frequency is determined by the clock source of

the timer and the values loaded into RCAPnH and RCAPnL. When counting DOWN, the auto-reload value for the
timer is 0xFFFF, and underflow will occur when the value in the timer matches the value stored in
RCAPnH:RCAPnL. When counting UP, the auto-reload value for the timer is RCAPnH:RCAPnL, and overflow will
occur when the value in the timer transitions from 0xFFFF to the reload value.
To output a square wave, the timer is placed in reload mode (the Capture/Reload Select Bit in TMRnCN and the
Timer/Counter Select Bit in TMRnCN are cleared to ‘0’). The timer output is enabled by setting the Timer Output
Enable Bit in TMRnCF to ‘1’. The timer should be configured via the timer clock source and reload/underflow values
such that the timer overflow/underflows at 1/2 the desired output frequency. The port pin assigned by the crossbar as
the timer’s output pin should be configured as a digital output (see Section “19. PORT INPUT/OUTPUT” on
page 215). Setting the timer’s Run Bit (TRn) to ‘1’ will start the toggle of the pin. A Read/Write of the Timer’s Tog-
gle Output State Bit (TMRnCF.2) is used to read the state of the toggle output, or to force a value of the output. This
is useful when it is desired to start the toggle of a pin in a known state, or to force the pin into a desired state when the
toggle mode is halted.

Bit7: TFn: Timer 2, 3, and 4 Overflow/Underflow Flag.
Set by hardware when either the Timer overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, underflows from the value
placed in RCAPnH:RCAPnL to 0xFFFF (in Auto-reload Mode), or underflows from 0x0000 to
0xFFFF (in Capture Mode). When the Timer interrupt is enabled, setting this bit causes the CPU to
vector to the Timer interrupt service routine. This bit is not automatically cleared by hardware and
must be cleared by software.
Bit6: EXFn: Timer 2, 3, or 4 External Flag.
Set by hardware when either a capture or reload is caused by a high-to-low transition on the TnEX
input pin and EXENn is logic 1. When the Timer interrupt is enabled, setting this bit causes the CPU
to vector to the Timer Interrupt service routine. This bit is not automatically cleared by hardware and
must be cleared by software.
Bit5-4: Reserved.
Bit3: EXENn: Timer 2, 3, and 4 External Enable.
Enables high-to-low transitions on TnEX to trigger captures, reloads, and control the direction of the
timer/counter (up or down count). If DECEN = 1, TnEX will determine if the timer counts up or
down when in Auto-reload Mode. If EXENn = 1, TnEX should be configured as a digital input.
0: Transitions on the TnEX pin are ignored.
1: Transitions on the TnEX pin cause capture, reload, or control the direction of timer count (up or
down) as follows:
Capture Mode: ‘1’-to-’0’ Transition on TnEX pin causes RCAPnH:RCAPnL to capture timer value.
Auto-Reload Mode:
DCEN = 0: ‘1’-to-’0’ transition causes reload of timer and sets the EXFn Flag.
DCEN = 1: TnEX logic level controls direction of timer (up or down).

25. PROGRAMMABLE COUNTER ARRAY
The Programmable Counter Array (PCA0) provides enhanced timer functionality while requiring less CPU interven-
tion than the standard 8051 counter/timers. PCA0 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 (See Section “19.1. Ports 0 through 3 and the Priority Crossbar Decoder” on
page 217). The counter/timer is driven by a programmable timebase that can select between six inputs as its source:
system clock, system clock divided by four, system clock divided by twelve, the external oscillator clock source
divided by 8, Timer 0 overflow, or an external clock signal on the ECI line. Each capture/compare module may be
configured to operate independently in one of six modes: Edge-Triggered Capture, Software Timer, High-Speed Out-
put, Frequency Output, 8-Bit PWM, or 16-Bit PWM (each is described in Section 25.2). The PCA is configured and
controlled through the system controller's Special Function Registers. The basic PCA block diagram is shown in
Figure 25.1.

25.1. PCA Counter/Timer
The 16-bit PCA counter/timer consists of two 8-bit SFRs: PCA0L and PCA0H. PCA0H is the high byte (MSB) of the
16-bit counter/timer and PCA0L is the low byte (LSB). Reading PCA0L automatically latches the value of PCA0H
into a “snapshot” register; the following PCA0H read accesses this “snapshot” register. Reading the PCA0L Register
first guarantees an accurate reading of the entire 16-bit PCA0 counter. Reading PCA0H or PCA0L does not disturb
the counter operation. The CPS2-CPS0 bits in the PCA0MD register select the timebase for the counter/timer as
shown in Table 25.1.
When the counter/timer overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the Counter Overflow Flag (CF) in PCA0MD is set to
logic 1 and an interrupt request is generated if CF interrupts are enabled. Setting the ECF bit in PCA0MD to logic 1
enables the CF flag to generate an interrupt request. The CF bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the
CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by software (Note: PCA0 interrupts must be glo-
bally enabled before CF interrupts are recognized. PCA0 interrupts are globally enabled by setting the EA bit (IE.7)
and the EPCA0 bit in EIE1 to logic 1). Clearing the CIDL bit in the PCA0MD register allows the PCA to continue
normal operation while the CPU is in Idle mode.
† Note: External clock divided by 8 is synchronized with the system clock.

25.2. Capture/Compare Modules
Each module can be configured to operate independently in one of six operation modes: Edge-triggered Capture,
Software Timer, High Speed Output, Frequency Output, 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator, or 16-Bit Pulse Width Modu-
lator. Each module has Special Function Registers (SFRs) associated with it in the CIP-51 system controller. These
registers are used to exchange data with a module and configure the module's mode of operation.
Table 25.2 summarizes the bit settings in the PCA0CPMn registers used to select the PCA0 capture/compare mod-
ule’s operating modes. Setting the ECCFn bit in a PCA0CPMn register enables the module's CCFn interrupt. Note:
PCA0 interrupts must be globally enabled before individual CCFn interrupts are recognized. PCA0 interrupts are glo-
bally enabled by setting the EA bit (IE.7) and the EPCA0 bit (EIE1.3) to logic 1. See Figure 25.3 for details on the
PCA interrupt configuration.

25.2.1. Edge-triggered Capture Mode
In this mode, a valid transition on the CEXn pin causes PCA0 to capture the value of the PCA0 counter/timer and
load it into the corresponding module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPLn and PCA0CPHn). The CAPPn
and CAPNn bits in the PCA0CPMn register are used to select the type of transition that triggers the capture: low-to-
high transition (positive edge), high-to-low transition (negative edge), or either transition (positive or negative edge).
When a capture occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic 1 and an interrupt request is
generated if CCF interrupts are enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vec-
tors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by software.
Note: The signal at CEXn must be high or low for at least 2 system clock cycles in order to be valid.

25.2.2. Software Timer (Compare) Mode
In Software Timer mode, the PCA0 counter/timer is compared to the module's 16-bit capture/compare register
(PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic
1 and an interrupt request is generated if CCF interrupts are enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by
hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by software. Setting the ECOMn
and MATn bits in the PCA0CPMn register enables Software Timer mode.

25.2.4. Frequency Output Mode
Frequency Output Mode produces a programmable-frequency square wave on the module’s associated CEXn pin.
The capture/compare module high byte holds the number of PCA clocks to count before the output is toggled. The
frequency of the square wave is then defined by Equation 25.1.
Where FPCA is the frequency of the clock selected by the CPS2-0 bits in the PCA mode register, PCA0MD. The
lower byte of the capture/compare module is compared to the PCA0 counter low byte; on a match, CEXn is toggled
and the offset held in the high byte is added to the matched value in PCA0CPLn. Frequency Output Mode is enabled
by setting the ECOMn, TOGn, and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn register.

25.2.5. 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
Each module can be used independently to generate pulse width modulated (PWM) outputs on its associated CEXn
pin. The frequency of the output is dependent on the timebase for the PCA0 counter/timer. The duty cycle of the
PWM output signal is varied using the module's PCA0CPLn capture/compare register. When the value in the low
byte of the PCA0 counter/timer (PCA0L) is equal to the value in PCA0CPLn, the output on the CEXn pin will be
high. When the count value in PCA0L overflows, the CEXn output will be low (see Figure 25.8). Also, when the
counter/timer low byte (PCA0L) overflows from 0xFF to 0x00, PCA0CPLn is reloaded automatically with the value
stored in the counter/timer's high byte (PCA0H) without software intervention. Setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits
in the PCA0CPMn register enables 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator mode. The duty cycle for 8-Bit PWM Mode is given
by Equation 25.2.

25.2.6. 16-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
Each PCA0 module may also be operated in 16-Bit PWM mode. In this mode, the 16-bit capture/compare module
defines the number of PCA0 clocks for the low time of the PWM signal. When the PCA0 counter matches the module
contents, the output on CEXn is asserted high; when the counter overflows, CEXn is asserted low. To output a vary-
ing duty cycle, new value writes should be synchronized with PCA0 CCFn match interrupts. 16-Bit PWM Mode is
enabled by setting the ECOMn, PWMn, and PWM16n bits in the PCA0CPMn register. For a varying duty cycle,
CCFn should also be set to logic 1 to enable match interrupts. The duty cycle for 16-Bit PWM Mode is given by

26. JTAG (IEEE 1149.1)
Each MCU has an on-chip JTAG interface and logic to support boundary scan for production and in-system testing,
Flash read/write operations, and non-intrusive in-circuit debug. The JTAG interface is fully compliant with the IEEE
1149.1 specification. Refer to this specification for detailed descriptions of the Test Interface and Boundary-Scan
Architecture. Access of the JTAG Instruction Register (IR) and Data Registers (DR) are as described in the Test
Access Port and Operation of the IEEE 1149.1 specification.
The JTAG interface is accessed via four dedicated pins on the MCU: TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO.
Through the 16-bit JTAG Instruction Register (IR), any of the eight instructions shown in Figure 26.1 can be com-
manded. There are three DR’s associated with JTAG Boundary-Scan, and four associated with Flash read/write oper-
ations on the MCU.

26.2. Flash Programming Commands
The Flash memory can be programmed directly over the JTAG interface using the Flash Control, Flash Data, Flash
Address, and Flash Scale registers. These Indirect Data Registers are accessed via the JTAG Instruction Register.
Read and write operations on indirect data registers are performed by first setting the appropriate DR address in the
IR register. Each read or write is then initiated by writing the appropriate Indirect Operation Code (IndOpCode) to the
selected data register. Incoming commands to this register have the following format:
IndOpCode: These bit set the operation to perform according to the following table:
The Poll operation is used to check the Busy bit as described below. Although a Capture-DR is performed, no
Update-DR is allowed for the Poll operation. Since updates are disabled, polling can be accomplished by shifting in/
out a single bit.
The Read operation initiates a read from the register addressed by the DRAddress. Reads can be initiated by shifting
only 2 bits into the indirect register. After the read operation is initiated, polling of the Busy bit must be performed to
determine when the operation is complete.
The write operation initiates a write of WriteData to the register addressed by DRAddress. Registers of any width up
to 18 bits can be written. If the register to be written contains fewer than 18 bits, the data in WriteData should be left-
justified, i.e. its MSB should occupy bit 17 above. This allows shorter registers to be written in fewer JTAG clock
cycles. For example, an 8-bit register could be written by shifting only 10 bits. After a Write is initiated, the Busy bit
should be polled to determine when the next operation can be initiated. The contents of the Instruction Register
should not be altered while either a read or write operation is busy.
Outgoing data from the indirect Data Register has the following format:
The Busy bit indicates that the current operation is not complete. It goes high when an operation is initiated and
returns low when complete. Read and Write commands are ignored while Busy is high. In fact, if polling for Busy to
be low will be followed by another read or write operation, JTAG writes of the next operation can be made while
checking for Busy to be low. They will be ignored until Busy is read low, at which time the new operation will ini-
tiate. This bit is placed ate bit 0 to allow polling by single-bit shifts. When waiting for a Read to complete and Busy is
0, the following 18 bits can be shifted out to obtain the resulting data. ReadData is always right-justified. This allows
registers shorter than 18 bits to be read using a reduced number of shifts. For example, the results from a byte-read
requires 9 bit shifts (Busy + 8 bits).

Figure 26.3. FLASHCON: JTAG Flash Control Register
This register determines how the Flash interface logic will respond to reads and writes to the FLASHDAT
Register.
Bit7: SFLE: Scratchpad FLASH Memory Access Enable
When this bit is set, FLASH reads and writes are directed to the two 128-byte Scratchpad FLASH
sectors. When SFLE is set to logic 1, FLASH accesses out of the address range 0x00-0xFF should not
be attempted (with the exception of address 0x400, which can be used to simultaneously erase both
Scratchpad areas). Reads/Writes out of this range will yield undefined results.
0: FLASH access directed to the 128k byte Program/Data FLASH sector.
1: FLASH access directed to the two 128 byte Scratchpad sectors.
Bits6-4: WRMD2-0: Write Mode Select Bits.
The Write Mode Select Bits control how the interface logic responds to writes to the FLASHDAT
Register per the following values:
000: A FLASHDAT write replaces the data in the FLASHDAT register, but is otherwise ignored.
001: A FLASHDAT write initiates a write of FLASHDAT into the memory address by the
FLASHADR register. FLASHADR is incremented by one when complete.
010: A FLASHDAT write initiates an erasure (sets all bytes to 0xFF) of the Flash page containing
the address in FLASHADR. The data written must be 0xA5 for the erase to occur.
FLASHADR is not affected. If FLASHADR = 0x1FBFE - 0x1FBFF, the entire user space
will be erased (i.e. entire Flash memory except for Reserved area 0x1FC00 - 0x1FFFF).
(All other values for WRMD2-0 are reserved.)
Bits3-0: RDMD3-0: Read Mode Select Bits.
The Read Mode Select Bits control how the interface logic responds to reads from the FLASHDAT
Register per the following values:
0000: A FLASHDAT read provides the data in the FLASHDAT register, but is otherwise ignored.
0001: A FLASHDAT read initiates a read of the byte addressed by the FLASHADR register if no
operation is currently active. This mode is used for block reads.

Bits9-2: DATA7-0: Flash Data Byte.
Bit1: FAIL: Flash Fail Bit.
0: Previous Flash memory operation was successful.
1: Previous Flash memory operation failed. Usually indicates the associated memory location
was locked.
Bit0: BUSY:FlashBusyBit.
0: Flash interface logic is not busy.
1: Flash interface logic is processing a request. Reads or writes while BUSY = 1 will not
initiate another operation

26.3. Debug Support
Each MCU has on-chip JTAG and debug logic that provides non-intrusive, full speed, in-circuit debug support using
the production part installed in the end application, via the four pin JTAG I/F. Cygnal's debug system supports inspec-
tion and modification of memory and registers, breakpoints, and single stepping. No additional target RAM, program
memory, or communications channels are required. All the digital and analog peripherals are functional and work
correctly (remain synchronized) while debugging. The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is disabled when the MCU is halted
during single stepping or at a breakpoint.
The C8051F120DK is a development kit with all the hardware and software necessary to develop application code
and perform in-circuit debug with the C8051F12x family. Each kit includes an Integrated Development Environment
(IDE) which has a debugger and integrated 8051 assembler. The kit also includes an RS-232 to JTAG interface mod-
ule referred to as the Serial Adapter. There is also a target application board with a C8051F120 installed. RS-232 and
JTAG cables and wall-mount power supply are also included.
