The heart of the circuit consists of the Coolrisc816(R) CPU core. This core includes an 8x8 multiplier and 16 internal registers. The bus controller generates all control signals for access to all data registers other than the CPU internal registers. ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d The reset block generates the adequate reset signals for the rest of the circuit as a function of the set-up contained in its control registers. Possible reset sources are the power-on-reset (POR), the external pin RESET, the watchdog (WD), a bus error detected by the bus controller or a programmable pattern on Port A. Different low power modes are implemented. The clock generation and power management block sets up the clock signals and generates internal supplies for different blocks. The clock can be generated from the RC oscillator (this is the start-up condition), the crystal oscillator (XTAL) or an external clock source (given on the OSCIN pin). The test controller generates all set-up signals for different test modes. In normal operation, it is used as a set of 8 low power data registers. If power consumption is important for the application, the variables that need to be accessed very often should be stored in these registers rather than in the RAM. The IRQ handler routes the interrupt signals of the different peripherals to the IRQ inputs of the CPU core. It allows masking of the interrupt sources and it flags which interrupt source is active. Events are generally used to restart the processor after a HALT period without jumping to a specified address, i.e. the program execution resumes with the instruction following the HALT instruction. The EVN handler routes the event signals of the different peripherals to the EVN inputs of the CPU core. It allows masking of the interrupt sources and it flags which interrupt source is active. R The Port B is an 8 bit parallel IO port with analog capabilities. The URST, UART, and PWM block also make use of this port. N ot The instruction memory is a 22-bit wide flash or ROM memory depending on the circuit version. Flash and ROM versions have both 8k instruction memory. The data memory on this product is a 512 byte SRAM. The Acquisition Chain is a high resolution acquisition path with the 16+10 bits ZoomingADCTM. The VMULT (voltage multiplier) powers a part of the Acquisition Chain. Port A is an 8 bit parallel input port. It can also generate interrupts, events or a reset. It can be used to input external clocks for the timer/counter/PWM block. Port C is a general purpose 8 bit parallel I/O port. The USRT (universal synchronous receiver/transmitter) contains some simple hardware functions in order to simplify the software implementation of a synchronous serial link. The UART (universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter) contains a full hardware implementation of the asynchronous serial link. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 1-2 XE8801A - SX8801R The counters/timers/PWM can take its clocks from internal or external sources (on Port A) and can generate interrupts or events. The PWM is output on Port B. The VLD (voltage level detector) detects the battery end of life with respect to a programmable threshold.

It is not sold anymore. The XE88LC01A has a new RESET pin function. The action of the RESET pin of the XE88LC01A resets the clock registers too and creates an additional short delay. See the RESET chapter for more information. fo r The XE8801A is the same product as the XE88LC01A. Its name was modified when XEMICS was bought by Semtech mid-2005.

Using the voltage regulator, low power consumption will be obtained even with supply voltages above 2.4V. Without the voltage regulator (i.e. VREG short-circuited to VBAT), a higher speed can be obtained. 2.1.3.1 Low power operation In this case, the internal voltage regulator is used in order to maintain a low power consumption independent from the supply voltage. The capacitor on VREG has to be connected at all times (value in Table 2-3) to guarantee proper operation of the device. The capacitor on VMULT has to be connected only when VBAT<3V.

It has 16 internal registers for efficient implementation of the C compiler. Its instruction set is made up of 35 generic instructions, all coded on 22 bits, with 8 addressing modes. All instructions are executed in one clock cycle, including conditional jumps and 8x8 multiplication. The circuit therefore runs on 1 MIPS on a 1MHz clock. The good code efficiency fo r The CPU hardware and software description is given in the document "Coolrisc816 Hardware and Software Reference Manual". A short summary is given in the following paragraphs. of the CPU core makes it possible to compute a polynomial like Z = ( A0 + A1 Y ) X + B0 + B1 Y in less than 300 clock cycles (software code generated by the XEMICS C- 3.2 ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d compiler, all numbers are signed integers on 16 bits). CPU internal registers As shown in Figure 3-1, the CPU has 16 internal 8-bit registers. Some of these registers can be concatenated to a 16-bit word for use in some instructions. The function of these registers is defined in Table 3-1. The status register stat (Table 3-2) is used to manage the different interrupt and event levels. An interrupt or an event can both be used to wake up after a HALT instruction. The difference is that an interrupt jumps to a special interrupt function whereas an event continues the software execution with the instruction following the HALT instruction. The program counter (PC) is a 16 bit register that indicates the address of the instruction that has to be executed. The stack (STn) is used to memorise the return address when executing subroutines or interrupt routines.

Status register description N ot The CPU also has a number of flags that can be used for conditional jumps. These flags are defined in Table 3-3. symbol Z C V name zero carry overflow function Z=1 when the accumulator a content is zero This flag is used in shift or arithmetic operations. For a shift operation, it has the value of the bit that was shifted out (LSB for shift right, MSB for shift left). For an arithmetic operation with unsigned numbers: it is 1 at occurrence of an overflow during an addition (or equivalent). it is 0 at occurrence of an underflow during a subtraction (or equivalent). This flag is used in shift or arithmetic operations. For arithmetic or shift operations with signed numbers, it is 1 if an overflow or underflow occurs. Table 3-3.

There are; normal, low current and very low current modes (see Figure 5-1). The different modes are controlled by the reset and clock blocks (see the documentation of the respective blocks). Operating mode fo r 5.2 ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d Start-up All bits are reset in the design when a POR (power-on-reset) is active. RC is enabled, Xtal is disabled and the CPU is reset (pmaddr = 0000). If the port A is used to return from the sleep mode, all bits with resetcold don't change (see sleep mode) Reset All bits with resetsystem and resetpconf (if enabled) are reset. Clock configuration doesn't change except cpuck. The CPU is reset Active mode This is the mode where the CPU and all peripherals can work and execute the embedded software. Standby mode Executing a HALT instruction moves the XE8000 into the Standby mode. The CPU is stopped, but the clocks remain active. Therefor, the enabled peripherals remain active e.g. for time keeping. A reset or an interrupt/event request (if enabled) cancels the standby mode. Sleep mode This is a very low-power mode because all circuit clocks and all peripherals are stopped. Only some service blocks remain active. No time-keeping is possible. Two instructions are necessary to move into sleep mode. First, the SleepEn (sleep enable) bit in RegSysCtrl has to be set to 1. The sleep mode can then be activated by setting the Sleep bit in RegSysReset to 1. N ot R There are three possibe ways to wake-up from the sleep mode: 1. The por (power-on-reset caused by a power-down followed by power-on). The RAM information is lost. 2. The padreset 3. The Port A reset combination (if the Port A is present in the product). See Port A documentation for more details. Note: If the Port A is used to return from the sleep mode, all bits with resetcold don't change (RegSysCtrl, RegSysReset (except bit sleep), EnExtClock and BiasRc in RegSysClock, RegSysRcTrim1 and RegSysRcTrim2). The SleepFlag bit in RegSysReset, reads back a 1 if the circuit was in sleep mode since the flag was last cleared (see reset block for more details). Note: For a lower power consumption, disable the BiasRc bit in RegSysClock before to going to sleep mode. The start-up time of the oscillator will then be longer however. Note: It is recommended to insert a NOP instruction after the instruction that sets the circuit in sleep mode because this instruction can be executed when the sleep mode is left using the resetfromportA.

This source is fully controlled by software and is only used during the sleep mode. R Four internal reset signals are generated from these sources and distributed through the system: * resetcold: is asserted on POR * resetsystem: is asserted when resetcold or any other enabled reset source is active * resetpconf: is asserted when resetsystem is active and if the EnResPConf bit in the RegSysCtrl register is set. This reset is generally used in the different ports. It allows to maintain the port configuration unchanged while the rest of the circuit is reset. * resetsleep: is asserted when the circuit is in sleep mode N ot For the circuits XE8801AM/XE88LC01AM/SX8801R and XE8805AM/XE88LC05AM (2) For the circuits XE88LC01 and XE88LC05 Table 6-4 shows a summary of the dependency of the internal reset signals on the various reset sources.

Programmable Port A input combination ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d 6.5.3 fo r The power on reset (POR) monitors the external supply voltage. It activates a reset on a rising edge of this supply voltage. The reset is inactivated only if the internal voltage regulator has started up. No precise voltage level detection is performed by the POR block. A reset signal can be generated by Port A. See the description of the Port A for further information. 6.5.4 Watchdog reset The Watchdog will generate a reset if the EnResetWD bit in the RegSysCtrl register has been set and if the watchdog is not cleared in time by the processor. See chapter 6.7 describing the watchdog for further information. 6.5.5 BusError reset The address space is assigned as shown in the register map of the product. If the EnBusError bit in the RegSysCtrl register is set and a non-existant address is accessed by the software, a reset is generated. 6.5.6 Sleep mode 6.6 R Entering the sleep mode will reset a part of the circuit. The reset is used to configure the circuit for correct wake-up after the sleep mode. If the SleepEn bit in the RegSysCtrl register has been set, the sleep mode can be entered by setting the bit Sleep in RegSysReset. During the sleep mode, the resetsleep signal is active. For detailed information on the sleep mode, see the system documentation. Control register description and operation N ot Two registers are dedicated for reset status and control, RegSysReset and RegSysCtrl. The bits Sleep, and SleepEn are also located in those registers and are described in the chapter dedicated to the different operating modes of the circuit (system block). The RegSysReset register gives information on the source which generated the last reset. It can be read at the beginning of the application program to detect if the circuit is recovering from an error or exception condition, or if the circuit is starting up normally. * when ResBusError is 1, a forbidden address access generated the reset. * when ResWD is 1, the watchdog generated the reset. * when ResPortA is 1, a PortA combination generated the reset. * when ResPad is 1, a reset pin generated the reset. * when ResPadSleep is 1, a reset pin in sleep mode generated the reset. Note: If no bit is set to 1, the reset source was the internal POR. Note: Several bits might be set or not, if the register was not cleared in between 2 reset occurrences. Write any value in RegSysReset to clear it. Note: When a reset pin wakes up the chip from the sleep mode, ResPad and ResPadSleep bits are equal at 1. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 6-4 XE8801A - SX8801R The last bit concerns the sleep mode control (see system documentation for the sleep mode description). * when Sleep is set to 1, and SleepEn is 1, the sleep mode is entered. The bit always reads back a 0. The RegSysCtrl register enables the different available reset sources and the sleep mode. Watchdog ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d 6.7 fo r * EnResWD enables the reset due to the watchdog (can not be disabled once enabled). * EnBusError enables the reset due to a bus error condition. * EnResPConf enables the reset of the port configurations when reset by Port A, a Bus Error or the watchdog. * SleepEn unlocks the Sleep bit. As long as SleepEn is 0, the Sleep bit has no effect. The watchdog is a timer which has to be cleared at least every 2 seconds by the software to prevent a reset being generated by the timeout condition. The watchdog can be enabled by software by setting the EnResWD bit in the RegSysCtrl register to 1. It can then only be disabled by a power on reset. The watchdog timer can be cleared by writing consecutively the values Hx0A and Hx03 to the RegSysWD register. The sequence must strictly be respected to clear the watchdog. In assembler code, the sequence to clear the watchdog is: move AddrRegSysWD, #0x0A move AddrRegSysWD, #0x03 Only writing Hx0A followed by Hx03 resets the WD. If some other write instruction is done to the RegSysWD between the writing of the Hx0A and Hx03 values, the watchdog timer will not be cleared. Start-up and watchdog specifications N ot 6.8 R It is possible to read the status of the watchdog in the RegSysWD register. The watchdog is a 4 bit counter with a count range between 0 and 7. The system reset is generated when the counter is reaching the value 8. At start-up of the circuit, the POR (power-on-reset) block generates a reset signal during tPOR. The circuit starts software execution after this period (see system chapter). The POR is intended to force the circuit in a correct state at start-up. For precise monitoring of the supply voltage, the voltage level detector (VLD) has to be used.

The watchdog takes its clock from the low prescaler. In case an external clock source is used, the RC oscillator must be enabled also (EnRC=1 in RegSysClock). Otherwise, the watchdog is stopped (see the clock block documentation). Note: 3) For the circuit versions XE88LC01 and XE88LC05.

CPU clock disabling in halt mode. Overview fo r 7.1 The XE8801AM - SX8801R chips can work on different clock sources (RC oscillator, quartz oscillator and external clock). The clock generator block is in charge of distributing the necessary clock frequencies to the circuit. ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d Figure 7-1 represents the functionality of the clock block. The internal RC oscillator drives the high prescaler. This prescaler generates frequency divisions down to 1/256 of its input frequency. A 32 kHz clock is generated by enabling the quartz oscillator (if present in the product) or by selecting the appropriate tap on the high prescaler. The low prescaler generates clock signals from 32 kHz down to 1Hz. The clock source for the CPU can be selected from the RC oscillator, the external clock or the 32 kHz clock.

It can be turned off after the Xtal (quartz oscillator) has been started, after selection of the external clock or by entering sleep mode. The RC oscillator has two frequency ranges: sub-MHz (100 kHz to 1 MHz) and above-MHz (1 MHz to 10 MHz). Inside a range, the frequency can be tuned by software for coarse and fine adjustment. See registers RegSysRcTrim1 and RegSysRcTrim2. Bit EnableRC in register RegSysClock controls the propagation of the RC clock signal and the operation of the oscillator. The user can stop the RC oscillator by resetting the bit EnableRC. Entering the sleep mode disables the RC oscillator. Note: Before turning off the RC oscillator, the cpusel bit in RegSysClock must be set to one. N ot R Note: The RC oscillator bias can be maintained while the oscillator is switched off by setting the bit BiasRc in RegSysClock. This allows a faster restart of the RC oscillator at the cost of increased power consumption when the oscillator is disabled (see section 7.5.1.3). 7.5.1.2 RC oscillator frequency tuning The RC oscillator frequency can be set using the bits in the RegSysRcTrim1 and RegSysRcTrim2 registers. Figure 7-2 shows the nominal frequency of the RC oscillator as a function of these bits. The absolute value of the frequency for a given register content may change by 50% from chip to chip due to the tolerances on the integrated capacitors and resistors. However, the modification of the frequency as a function of a modification of the register content is fairly precise for frequencies below 2MHz. This means that the curves in Figure 7-2 can shift up and down but that the slope remains unchanged. The bit RcFreqRange modifies the oscillator frequency by a factor of 10. The upper curve in the figure corresponds to RcFreqRange=1. The RcFreqCoarse modifies the frequency of the oscillator by a factor (RcFreqCoarse+1). The figure represents the frequency for 5 different values of the bits RcFreqCoarse: for each value the frequency is multiplied by 2. Incrementing the RcFreqFine code increases the frequency by about 1.4%. The frequency of the oscillator is therefor given by: (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 7-4 XE8801A - SX8801R fRC=fRcmin(1+9RcFreqRange)(1+RcFreqCoarse)(1.014)RcFreqFine with fRcmin the RC oscillator frequency if the registers are all 0. At higher frequencies, the frequency may deviate from the value predicted by the equation. 1E+08 fo r 1 00 1 0 ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d 1 11 0 0 00 1 11 0 00 0 00 00 11 00 00 00 1 11 1 00 00 0 00 00 11 11 11 00 RcFreqFine(5:0) 11 00 11 00 00 01 11 00 00 00 11 00 00 0 1 00 00 0 00 0 00 00 0 01 0 10 00 11 00 00 0 01 11 1 11 00 10 00 11 11 00 01 11 00 10 00 11 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 0 00 01 11 00 10 00 11 1 00 11 00 00 1 11 00 00 00 1 00 10 01 00 1E+05 11 00 00 10 01 11 11 10 1 11 11 00 11 01 1E+06 0 00 01 11 11 10 01 11 11 RcFreqFine(5:0) 11 00 11 10 1E+07 00 Nominal RC oscillator frequency [Hz] RcFreqRange='1' RcFreqRange='0' 00 RcFreqCoarse(3:0) 1E+04 0001 0011 0111 1111 R 0000 Figure 7-2.

During Xtal oscillator start-up, the first 32768 cycles are masked. The two bits EnableXtal and ColdXtal in register RegSysClock control the oscillator. ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d At power-on reset or during sleep mode, EnableXtal is reset and ColdXtal is set (Xtal oscillator is not selected at start-up). The user can start Xtal oscillator by setting EnableXtal. When the Xtal oscillator starts, bit ColdXtal is reset after 32768 cycles. Before ColdXtal is reset by the system, the Xtal frequency precision is not guaranteed. The Xtal oscillator can be stopped by the user by resetting bit EnableXtal. When the user enters into sleep mode, the Xtal is stopped. When an external clock is detected (ExtClk = 1) or the EnExtClock is set 1, the EnableXtal bit can not be set to 1. 7.5.2.2 Xtal oscillator specifications The crystal oscillator has been designed for a crystal with the specifications given in Table 7-8.

Only the CPU can use the external clock. The external clock input pin is OSCIN. R The system is configured for external clock by bit EnExtClock in register RegSysClock.

The RC clock is always selected after powerup or after Sleep mode. The CPU clock selection is done with the bit CpuSel in RegSysClock (0= RC clock, 1= 32 kHz from Xtal if EnableXtal =1, ExtClk = 0 and EnExtClk = 0 else external clock).

Note 1: The CPU clock can be divided by using the freq instruction (see coolrisc instruction set) R Switching from one clock source to another and stopping the unused clock source must be performed using 3 MOVE instructions to RegSysClock. First select the new clock source, secondly change the CpuSel bit and finally stop the unused one. RegSysMisc Description N ot 7.7 The RCOnPA0 bit in RegSysMisc can be used to enable the RC oscillator on an event external to the circuit. If RCOnPA0 is 1, the RC oscillator is enabled (EnableRC bit is set to 1) as soon as the value on port A pin PA[0] is equal to 1. The Port A pin can be debounced (see Port A documentation). Bit DebFast in the RegSysMisc register allows to chose the debouncer clock between 256Hz and 8kHz (DebFast = 0 and DebFast = 1 respectively). The Debouncer clock is used to debounce PA inputs (see Port A documentation). Bit OutputCkXtal allows to show the Xtal clock on PB[3]. The EnableXtal bit must be set to 1 else PB[3] equals 0 (see port B documentation to set up the Port B). Bit OutputCpuCk allows to show the CpuClock on PB[2] (see Port B documentation). (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 7-8 XE8801A - SX8801R 7.8 Prescalers The clock generator block embeds two divider chains: the high prescaler and the low prescaler. The high prescaler is made of an 8 stage dividing chain and the low prescaler of a 15 stage dividing chain. 7.9 ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d fo r Features: * High prescaler can only be driven with RC clock (bit EnableRc have to be set, see Table 7-12). * Low prescaler can be driven from the high prescaler or directly with the Xtal clock when bit EnableXtal is set to 1, bit EnExtClock is set to 0 and ExtClk is equal at 0. * Bit ResPre in the RegSysPre0 register allows to reset synchronously the low prescaler, the low prescaler is also automatically cleared when bit EnableXtal is set. Both dividing chains are reset asynchronously by the resetsleep signal. * Bit ColdXtal=1 indicates the Xtal is in its start up phase. It is active for 37268 Xtal cycles after setting EnableXtal. 32 kHz frequency selector N ot R A decoder is used to select from the high prescaler the frequency tap that is the closest to 32 kHz to operate the low prescaler when the Xtal is not running. In this case, the RC oscillator frequency of 50% will also be valid for the low prescaler frequency outputs.

The 24 interrupt sources are divided into 3 levels of priority: High (8 interrupt sources), Mid (8 interrupt sources), and Low (8 interrupt sources).

Those flags are set when the interrupt is enabled (i.e. if the corresponding bit in the registers RegIrqEnHig, RegIrqEnMid or RegIrqEnLow is set) and a rising edge is detected on the corresponding interrupt source. Once memorized, an interrupt flag can be cleared by writing a `1' in the corresponding bit of RegIrqHig, RegIrqMid or RegIrqLow. Writing a `0' does not modify the flag. To definitively clear the interrupt, one has to clear the CoolRisc interrupt in the CoolRisc status register. All interrupts are automatically cleared after a reset. Two registers are provided to facilitate the writing of interrupt service software. RegIrqPriority contains the number of the highest priority interrupt set (its value is 0xFF when no interrupt is set). RegIrqIrq indicates the priority level of the current interrupts.

Debounce mode: Each bit in Port A can be individually debounced by setting the corresponding bit in RegPADebounce. After reset, the debounce function is disabled. After enabling the debouncer, the change of the input value is accepted only if the input value is identical at two consecutive sampling on the rising edge of the selected clock. Selection of the clock is done by the bit DebFast in Register RegSysMisc (see clock block documentation for more precision on the frequency). DebFast Clock filter 0 256 Hz 1 8 kHz Table 11-7: debounce frequency selection R Input CkDebounce 1 1 2 1 1 2 N ot Debounced Figure 11-2: digital debouncer Pull-ups: When the corresponding bit in RegPAPullup is set to 0, the inputs are floating (pull-up resistors are disconnected). When the corresponding bit in RegPAPullup is set to 1, a pull-up resistor is connected to the input pin. Port A starts up with the pull-up resistors disconnected. Port A as an interrupt source: Each Port A input is an interrupt request source and can be set on rising or falling edge with the corresponding bit in RegPAEdge. After reset, the rising edge is selected for interrupt generation by default. The interrupt source can be debounced by setting register RegPADebounce. Note: care must be taken when modifying RegPAEdge because this register performs an edge selection. The change of this register may result in a transition which may be interpreted as a valid interruption. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 11-4 XE8801A - SX8801R Port A as an event source: The interrupt signals of the pins PA[0] and PA[1] are also available as events on the event controller. PortA as a clock source (product dependent): Images of the PA[0] to PA[3] input ports (debounced or not) are available as clock sources for the counter/timer/PWM peripheral (see the counter block documentation for more information). fo r Port A as a reset source: Port A can be used to generate a system reset by placing a predetermined word on Port A externally. The reset is built using a logical and of the 8 PARes[x] signals: resetfromportA = PAReset[7] AND PAReset[6] AND PAReset[5] AND ... AND PAReset[0] ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d PAReset[x] is itself a logical function of the corresponding pin PA[x]. One of four logical functions can be selected for each pin by writing into two registers RegPARes0 and RegPARes1 as shown in Table 11-8. PARes1[x] 0 0 1 1 PARes0[x] 0 1 0 1 PAReset[x] 0 PA[x] not(PA[x]) 1 Table 11-8: Selection bits for reset signal A reset from Port A can be inhibited by placing a 0 on both PARes1[x] and PARes0[x] for at least 1 pin. Setting both PARes1[x] and PARes0[x] to 1, makes the reset independent of the value on the corresponding pin. Setting both registers to hFF, will reset the circuit independent from the Port A input value. This makes it possible to do a reset by software. Note: depending of the value of PA[0] to PA[7], the change of RegPARes0 and RegPARes1 can cause a reset. Therefore it is safe to have always one (RegPARes0[x], RegPARes1[x]) equal to `00' during the setting operations. N ot R Port A as a RC enable: PA[0] can be used to enable the RC oscillator. When RCOnPA0 bit in RegSysMisc is set to 1 and the value of PA[0] (debounced or not) is equal to 1, the EnRc bit in RegSysClock is automatically set to 1. 11.6 Port A electrical specification Sym VINH VINL RPU Cin description Input high voltage Input low voltage Pull-up resistance Input capacitance min 0.7*VBAT VSS 20 typ 50 3.5 max VBAT 0.2*VBAT 80 unit Comments V VBAT2.4V V VBAT2.4V k pF Note 1 Note 1: this value is indicative only since it depends on the package.

If a pair of pins is selected to be analog, it overwrites the function and digital set-up. If the pin is not selected as analog, but a function is enabled, it overwrites the digital set-up. If neither the analog nor function are selected for a pin, it is used as an ordinary digital I/O. This is the default configuration at start-up. N ot 12.5 Port B analog capability 12.5.1 Port B analog configuration Port B terminals can be attached to a 4 line analog bus by setting the PBAna[x] bits to 1 in the RegPBAna register. The other registers then define the connection of these 4 analog lines to the different pads of Port B. This can be used to implement a simple LCD driver or A/D converter. Analog switching is available only when the circuit is powered with sufficient voltage (see specification below). Below the specified supply voltage, only voltages that are close to VSS or VBAT can be switched. When PBAna[x] is set to 1, a pair of Port B terminals is switched from digital I/O mode to analog mode. The usage of the registers RegPBPullup, RegPBOut and RegPBDir define the analog configuration (see Table 12-8). When PBAna[x] = 1, then PBPullup[x] connects the pin to the analog bus. PBDir[x] and PBPOut[x] select which of the 4 analog lines is used. For odd values of x, the selection bits are in the register RegPBOut (see Table 12-8). For even values of x, the selection bits are in the register RegPBDir (see Table 12-9).

(c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 12-4 XE8801A - SX8801R 12.6 Port B function capability The Port B can be used for different functions implemented by other peripherals. The description below is applicable only in so far the circuit contains these peripherals. fo r When the counters are used to implement a PWM function (see the documentation of the counters), the PB[0] and PB[1] terminals are used as outputs (PB[0] is used if CntPWM0 in RegCntConfig1 is set to 1, PB[1] is used if CntPWM1 in RegCntConfig1 is set to 1) and the PWM generated values overwrite the values written in RegPBout. However, PBDir(0) and PBDir(1) are not automatically overwritten and have to be set to 1. ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d If OutputCkXtal is set in RegSysMisc, the Xtal clock is output on PB[3] (EnableXtal in RegSysClock must be set to 1). This overrides the value contained in PBOut(3). However, PBDir(3) must be set to 1. The duty cycle of the clock signal is about 50%. Similarly, if OutputCkCpu is set in RegSysMisc, the CPU frequency is output on PB[2]. This overrides the value contained in PBOut(2). However, PBDir(2) must be set to 1. The frequency of the CPU clock depends on the selection of the CpuSel bit in the RegSysClock register (see clock_gen_ff). Pins PB[5] and PB[4] can be used for S1 and S0 of the USRT (see USRT documentation) when the UsrtEnable bit is set in RegUsrtCtrl. The PB[5] and PB[4] then become open-drain. This overrides the values contained in PBOpen(5:4), PBOut(5:4) and PBDir(5:4). If there is no external pull-up resistor on these pins, internal pull-ups should be selected by setting PBPullup(5:4). When S0 is an output, the pin PB[4] takes the value of UsrtS0 in RegUrstS0. When S1 is an output, the pin PB[5] takes the value of UsrtS1 in RegUrstS1. Pins PB[6] and PB[7] can be used by the UART (see UART documentation). When UartEnTx in RegUartCtrl is set to 1, PB[6] is used as output signal Tx. When UartEnRx in RegUartCtrl is set to 1, PB[7] is used as input signal Rx. This overrides the values contained in PBOut(7:6) and PBDir(7:6). 12.7 Port B digital capabilities Port B digital configuration R 12.7.1 N ot The direction of each bit within Port B (input only or input/output) can be individually set using the RegPBDir register. If PBDir[x] = 1, both the input and output buffer are active on the corresponding Port B. If PBDir[x] = 0, the corresponding Port B pin is an input only and the output buffer is in high impedance. After reset (resetpconf) Port B is in input only mode (PBDir[x] are reset to 0). The input values of Port B are available in RegPBIn (read only). Reading is always direct - there is no debounce function in Port B. In case of possible noise on input signals, a software debouncer with polling or an external hardware filter have to be realized. The input buffer is also active when the port is defined as output and allows to read back the effective value on the pin. Data stored in RegPBOut are output at Port B if PBDir[x] is 1. The default value after reset is low (0). When a pin is in output mode (PBDir[x] is set to 1), the output can be a conventional CMOS (Push-Pull) or a Nchannel Open-drain, driving the output only low. By default, after reset (resetpconf) the PBOpen[x] in RegPBOpen is cleared to 0 (push-pull). If PBOpen[x] in RegPBOpen is set to 1 then the internal P transistor in the output buffer is electrically removed and the output can only be driven low (PBOut[x]=0). When PBOut[x]=1, the pin is high Impedance. The internal pull-up or an external pull-up resistor can be used to drive the pin high. Note: Because the P transistor actually exists (this is not a real Open-drain output) the pull-up range is limited to VDD + 0.2V (avoid forward bias the P transistor / diode). (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 12-5 XE8801A - SX8801R Each bit can be set individually for pull-up or not using register RegPBPullup. Input is pulled up when its corresponding bit in this register is set to 1. Default status after (resetpconf) is 0, which means without pull up. To limit power consumption, pull-up resistors are only enabled when the associated pin is either a digital input or an Nchannel open-drain output with the pad set to 1. In the other cases (push-pull output or open-drain output driven low), the pull up resistors are disabled independent of the value in RegPBPullup. After power-on reset, the Port B is configured as an input port without pull-up.

The clock source can be the RC oscillator or the crystal oscillator. The precision of the baud rate will depend on the precision of the selected clock source. 14.5.1 Uart on the RC oscillator To select the RC oscillator for the Uart, the bit SelXtal in RegUartCmd has to be 0. In order to obtain a correct baud rate, the RC oscillator frequency has to be set to one of the frequencies given in the table below. The precision of the obtained baud rate is directly proportional to the frequency deviation with respect to the values in the table.

In order to increase the precision and stability of the RC oscillator, the DFLL (digital frequency locked loop) can be used with the crystal oscillator as a reference. 14.5.2 Uart on the crystal oscillator In order to use the crystal oscillator as the clock source for the Uart, the bit SelXtal in RegUartCmd has to be set. The crystal oscillator has to be enabled by setting the EnableXtal bit in RegSysClock. The baud rate selection is done using the UartBR and UartRcSel bits as shown in Table 14-9. R Xtal freq. (Hz) N ot 32768 UartRcSel 001 UartBR 011 010 001 000 Baud rate 2400 1200 600 300 Table 14-9: Uart baud rate with Xtal clock Due to the odd ratio between the crystal oscillator frequency and the baud rate, the generated baud rate has a systematic error of -2.48%. 14.6 Function description 14.6.1 Configuration bits The configuration bits of the Uart serial interface can be found in the registers RegUartCmd and RegUartCtrl. The bit SelXtal is used to select the clock source (see chapter 14.5). The bits UartSelRc and UartBR select the baud rate (see chapter 14.5). The bit UartEnTx is used to enable or disable the transmission. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 14-4 XE8801A - SX8801R The bits UartEnRx1 and UartEnRx2 are used to enable or disable the reception. When one is set to 1, the reception is enabled. The word length (7 or 8 data bits) can be chosen with UartWL. A parity bit is added during transmission or checked during reception if UartPE is set. The parity mode (odd or even) can be chosen with UartPM. Setting the bits UartXRx and UartXTx inverts the Rx respectively Tx signals. 14.6.2 fo r The bit UartEcho is used to send the received data automatically back. The transmission function becomes then: Tx = Rx XOR UartXTx. Transmission ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d In order to send data, the transmitter has to be enabled by setting the bit UartEnTx. Data to be sent has to be written to the register RegUartTx. The bit UartTxFull in RegUartTxSta then goes to 1, indicating to the transmitter that a new word is available. As soon as the transmitter has finished sending the previous word, it then loads the contents of the register RegUartTx to an internal shift register and clears the UartTxFull bit. An interrupt is generated on Irq_uart_Tx at the falling edge of the UartTxFull bit. The bit UartTxBusy in RegUartTxSta shows that the transmitter is busy transmitting a word. A timing diagram is shown in Figure 14-1. Data are sent LSB first. New data should be written to the register RegUartTx only while UartTxFull is 0, otherwise data will be lost.

Uart transmission timing diagram. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 14-5 XE8801A - SX8801R 14.6.3 Reception On detection of the start bit, the UartRxBusy bit is set. On detection of the stop bit, the received data are transferred from the internal shift register to the register RegUartRx. At the same time, the UartRxFull bit is set and an interrupt is generated on Irq_uart_Rx. This indicates that new data is available in RegUartRx. The timing diagram is shown in Figure 14-2. fo r The UartRxFull bit is cleared when RegUartRx is read. If the register was not read before the receiver transfers a new word to it, the bit UartRxOErr (overflow error) is set and the previous contents of the register is lost. UartRxOErr is cleared by writing any data to RegUartRxSta. The bit UartRxSErr is set if a start error has been detected. The bit is updated at data transfer to RegUartRx. ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d The bit UartRxPErr is set if a parity error has been detected, i.e. the received parity bit is not equal to the calculated parity of the received data. The bit is updated at data transfer to RegUartRx. The bit UartRxFErr in RegUartRxSta shows that a frame error has been detected. No stop bit has been detected.

Uart reception timing diagram. 14.7 Interrupt or polling The transmission and reception software can be driven by interruption or by polling the status bits. Interrupt driven reception: each time an Irq_uart_Rx interrupt is generated, a new word is available in RegUartRx. The register has to be read before a new word is received. Interrupt driven transmission: each time the contents of RegUartTx is transferred to the transmission shift register, an Irq_uart_Tx interrupt is generated. A new word can then be written to RegUartTx. Reception driven by polling: the UartRxFull bit is to be read and checked. When it is 1, the RegUartRx register contains new data and has to be read before a new word is received. Transmission driven by polling: the UartTxFull bit is to read and checked. When it is 0, the RegUartTx register is empty and a new word can be written to it.

External lines S0 and S1 respectively correspond to clock line and data line. S0 is mapped to PB[4] and S1 to PB[5] when the USRT block is enabled. It is independent from RegPBdir (Port B can be input or output). When USRT is enabled, the configurations in port B for PB[4] and PB[5] are overwritten by the USRT configuration. Internal pull-ups can be used by setting the PBPullup[5:4] bits. Conditional edge detections are provided. RegUsrtS1 can be used to read the S1 data line from PB[5] in receive mode or to drive the output S1 line PB[5] by writing it when in transmit mode. It is advised to read S1 data when in receive mode from the RegUsrtBufferS1 register, which is the S1 value sampled on a rising edge of S0. 15.3 Register map Block configuration registers: RegUsrtS1 R pos.

The read value is read back on the circuit pins, not in the registers. Since the outputs are open drain, a value different from the register value may be forced by an external circuit on the circuit pins.

This bit puts these two port B lines in the open drain configuration requested to use the USRT interface. If no external pull-ups are added on PB[4] and PB[5], the user can activate internal pull-ups by setting PBPullup[4] and PBPullup[5] in RegPBPullup. fo r The bits UsrtEnWaitS0, UsrtEnWaitCond1, UsrtWaitS0 in RegUsrtCtrl are used for transmitter/receiver control of USRT interface.

A control block (not shown in Figure 16-1) manages all communications with the CoolRiscTM microcontroller. Analog inputs can be selected among eight input channels, while reference input is selected between two differential channels. The core of the zooming section is made of three differential programmable amplifiers (PGA). After selection of a combination of input and reference signals VIN and VREF, the input voltage is modulated and amplified through stages 1 to 3. Fine gain programming up to 1'000V/V is possible. In addition, the last two stages provide programmable offset. Each amplifier can be bypassed if needed. The output of the PGA stages is directly fed to the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which converts the signal VIN,ADC into digital. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 16-4 XE8801A - SX8801R Like most ADCs intended for instrumentation or sensing applications, the ZoomingADCTM is an over-sampled converter (See Note1). The ADC is a so-called incremental converter, with bipolar operation (the ADC accepts both positive and negative input voltages). In first approximation, the ADC output result relative to full-scale (FS) delivers the quantity: OUT ADC V IN , ADC FS / 2 V REF / 2 (Eq. 1) fo r in two's complement (see Sections 16.4 and 16.7 for details). The output code OUTADC is -FS/2 to +FS/2 for VIN,ADC -VREF/2 to +VREF/2 respectively. As will be shown in section 16.6, VIN,ADC is related to input voltage VIN by the relationship: V IN , ADC = GDTOT V IN - GDoff TOT V REF (V) ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d (Eq. 2) where GDTOT is the total PGA gain, and GDoffTOT is the total PGA offset. 0 1 AC_R 2 3 fS fS PGA1 PGA2 PGA3 GD1 GD2 GD3 OFF2 OFF3 VIN VIN,ADC ADC VREF MUX 0 1 2 3 AC_A 4 5 6 7 MUX Inputs 2 4 7 R 5 7 Acquisition Chain Register Bank N ot RegACCfg5 RegACCfg4 8 RegACCfg3 RegACOutLSB RegACCfg2 RegACOutMSB RegACCfg1 RegACCfg0 Power Saving Modes PGA Enabling Conversion Start Nbr of Elementary Cycles Over-Sampling Ratio Continuous vs. On-Request 8 ADC Busy Flag Default Settings Sampling Frequency fS Figure 16-2. ZoomingADCTM detailed functional block diagram 1 Note: Over-sampled converters are operated with a sampling frequency f much higher than the input signal's Nyquist rate (typically f is 20S S 1'000 times the input signal bandwidth). The sampling frequency to throughput ratio is large (typically 10-500). These converters include digital decimation filtering. They are mainly used for high resolution, and/or low-to-medium speed applications.

In Table 16-10 the configuration of the peripheral registers is detailed. The system has a bank of eight 8-bit registers: six registers are used to configure the acquisition chain (RegAcCfg0 to 5), and two registers are used to store the output code of the analog-to-digital conversion (RegAcOutMsb & Lsb). The register coding of the ADC parameters and performance characteristics are detailed in Section 16.7. fo r Table 16-10.

(MSB = OUT[15]) START: (w) setting this bit triggers a single conversion (after the current one is finished). This bit always reads back 0. SET_NELC: (rw) sets the number of elementary conversions to 2SET_NELC[1:0] . To compensate for offsets, the input signal is chopped between elementary conversions (1,2,4,8). SET_OSR: (rw) sets the over-sampling rate (OSR) of an elementary conversion to 2(3+SET_OSR[2:0]) . OSR = 8, 16, 32, ..., 512, 1024. CONT: (rw) setting this bit starts a conversion. A new conversion will automatically begin as long as the bit remains at 1. TEST: bit only used for test purposes. In normal mode, this bit is forced to 0 and cannot be overwritten. IB_AMP_ADC: (rw) sets the bias current in the ADC to 0.25*(1+ IB_AMP_ADC[1:0]) of the normal operation current (25, 50, 75 or 100% of nominal current). To be used for low-power, low-speed operation. IB_AMP_PGA: (rw) sets the bias current in the PGAs to 0.25*(1+IB_AMP_PGA[1:0]) of the normal operation current (25, 50, 75 or 100% of nominal current). To be used for low-power, low-speed operation. ENABLE: (rw) enables the ADC modulator (bit 0) and the different stages of the PGAs (PGAi by bit i=1,2,3). PGA stages that are disabled are bypassed. FIN: (rw) These bits set the sampling frequency of the acquisition chain. Expressed as a fraction of the oscillator frequency, the sampling frequency is given as: 00 AE 1/4 fRC, 01 AE 1/8 fRC, 10 AE 1/32 fRC, 11AE ~8kHz.

PGA2_GAIN: (rw) sets the gain of the second stage: 00 AE 1, 01 AE 2, 10 AE 5, 11 AE 10. PGA3_GAIN: (rw) sets the gain of the third stage to PGA3_GAIN[6:0]1/12. PGA2_OFFSET: (rw) sets the offset of the second stage between -1 and +1, with increments of 0.2. The MSB gives the sign (0 positive, 1 negative); amplitude is coded with the bits PGA2_OFFSET[5:0]. PGA3_OFFSET: (rw) sets the offset of the third stage between -5.25 and +5.25, with increments of 1/12. The MSB gives the sign (0 positive, 1 negative); amplitude is coded with the bits PGA3_OFFSET[5:0]. BUSY: (r) set to 1 if a conversion is running. Note that the flag is set at the effective start of the conversion. Since the ADC is generally synchronized on a lower frequency clock than the CPU, there might be a small delay (max. 1 cycle of the ADC sampling frequency) between the writing of the START or CONT bits and the appearance of BUSY flag. DEF: (w) sets all values to their defaults (PGA disabled, max speed, nominal modulator bias current, 2 elementary conversions, over-sampling rate of 32) and starts a new conversion without waiting the end of the preceding one. AMUX(4:0): (rw) AMUX[4] sets the mode (0 AE 4 differential inputs, 1 AE 7 inputs with A(0) = common reference) AMUX(3) sets the sign (0 AE straight, 1AE cross) AMUX[2:0] sets the channel. VMUX: (rw) sets the differential reference channel (0 AE R(1) and R(0), 1 AE R(3) and R(2)).

In "continuous-time" mode, the input signal is repeatedly converted into digital. After a conversion is finished, a new one is automatically initiated. The new value is then written in the result register, and the corresponding internal trigger pulse is generated. This operation is sketched in Figure 16-3. The conversion time in this case is defined as TCONV. TCONV Internal Trig Ouput Code RegACOut[15:0] BUSY N ot R IRQ Figure 16-3. ADC "continuous-time" operation T CONV Internal Trig Request START Ouput Code RegACOut[15:0] BUSY IRQ Figure 16-4. ADC "on-request" operation In the "on-request" mode, the internal behaviour of the converter is the same as in the "continuous-time" mode, but the conversion is initiated on user request (with the START bit). As shown in Figure 16-4, the conversion time is also TCONV. Note that the flag is set at the effective start of the conversion. Since the ADC is generally synchronized on a lower frequency clock than the CPU, there might be a small delay (max. 1 cycle of the ADC sampling frequency) between the writing of the START or CONT bits and the appearance of BUSY flag.

Let us first define the differential input voltage VIN and reference voltage VREF respectively as: VIN = VINP - VINN (V) (Eq. 3) VREF = VREFP - VREFN (V) (Eq. 4) fo r and: ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d As shown in Table 16-11 the inputs can be configured in two ways: either as 4 differential channels (VIN1 = AC_A(1) - AC_A(0),..., VIN4 = AC_A(7) - AC_A(6)), or AC_A(0) can be used as a common reference, providing 7 signal paths all referred to AC_A(0). The control word for the analog input selection is AMUX[4:0]. Notice that the bit AMUX[3] controls the sign of the input voltage.

These are: * PGA1: coarse gain tuning * PGA2: medium gain and offset tuning * PGA3: fine gain and offset tuning All gain and offset settings are realized with ratios of capacitors. The user has control over each PGA activation and gain, as well as the offset of stages 2 and 3. These functions are examined hereafter.

This is done according to the word ENABLE and the coding given in Table 16-13. To reduce power dissipation, the ADC can also be inactivated while idle. 16.6.2 PGA1 The first stage can have a buffer function (unity gain) or provide a gain of 10 (see Table 16-14). The voltage VD1 at the output of PGA1 is: V D1 = GD1 V IN (V) (Eq. 5) where GD1 is the gain of PGA1 (in V/V) controlled with the bit PGA1_GAIN. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 16-10 XE8801A - SX8801R 16.6.3 PGA2 The second PGA has a finer gain and offset tuning capability, as shown in Table 16-15 and Table 16-16. The voltage VD2 at the output of PGA2 is given by: V D 2 = GD2 V D1 - GDoff 2 V REF (V) (Eq. 6) fo r where GD2 and GDoff2 are respectively the gain and offset of PGA2 (in V/V). These are controlled with the words PGA2_GAIN[1:0] and PGA2_OFFSET[3:0]. 16.6.4 PGA3 ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d As shown in equation 6, the offset correction is directly proportional to the reference voltage. All drifts and perturbations on the reference voltage will affect the precision of the offset compensation. The finest gain and offset tuning is performed with the third and last PGA stage, according to the coding of Table 16-17 and Table 16-18. The output of PGA3 is also the input of the ADC. Thus, similarly to PGA2, we find that the voltage entering the ADC is given by: V IN , ADC = GD3 V D 2 - GDoff 3 V REF (V) (Eq. 7) where GD3 and GDoff3 are respectively the gain and offset of PGA3 (in V/V). The control words are PGA3_GAIN[6:0] and PGA3_OFFSET[6:0] . To remain within the signal compliance of the PGA stages, the condition: V D1 , V D 2 < V DD must be verified. (V) (Eq. 8) As shown in equation 7, the offset correction is directly proportional to the reference voltage. All drifts and perturbations on the reference voltage will affect the precision of the offset compensation. R Finally, combining equations Eq. 5 to Eq. 7 for the three PGA stages, the input voltage VIN,ADC of the ADC is related to VIN by: N ot V IN , ADC = GDTOT V IN - GDoff TOT V REF (V) (Eq. 9) where the total PGA gain is defined as: GDTOT = GD3 GD2 GD1 (V/V) (Eq. 10) and the total PGA offset is: GDoff TOT = GDoff 3 + GD3 GDoff 2 (V/V) (Eq. 11) (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 16-11 XE8801A - SX8801R 16.7 ADC Characteristics 16.7.1 fo r The main performance characteristics of the ADC (resolution, conversion time, etc.) are determined by three programmable parameters. The setting of these parameters and the resulting performances are described later. * sampling frequency fS, * over-sampling ratio OSR, and * number of elementary conversions NELCONV. Conversion Sequence ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d A conversion is started each time the bit START or the bit DEF is set. As depicted in Figure 16-5, a complete analogto-digital conversion sequence is made of a set of NELCONV elementary incremental conversions and a final quantization step. Each elementary conversion is made of (OSR+1) sampling periods TS=1/fS, i.e.: TELCONV = (OSR + 1) / f S (s) (Eq. 12) The result is the mean of the elementary conversion results. An important feature is that the elementary conversions are alternatively performed with the offset of the internal amplifiers contributing in one direction and the other to the output code. Thus, converter internal offset is eliminated if at least two elementary sequences are performed (i.e. if NELCONV 2). A few additional clock cycles are also required to initiate and end the conversion properly.

Three sub-multiples of the internal RC-based frequency fRCEXT can be chosen. For FIN = "11", sampling frequency is about 8kHz. Additional information on oscillators and their control can be found in the clock block documentation.

Resolution The theoretical resolution of the ADC, without considering thermal noise, is given by: n = 2 log 2 (OSR) + log 2 ( N ELCONV ) (Bits) (Eq. 15) 17 Resolution - n [Bits] 15 SET_NELC= 11 10 01 00 13 11 9 7 5 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 SET_OSR N ot R Figure 16-6 Resolution vs. SET_OSR[2:0] and SET_NELC[2:0] SET_OS R [2:0] 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 SET_NELC 00 01 10 11 6 8 10 12 14 16 16 16 7 9 11 13 15 16 16 16 8 10 12 14 16 16 16 16 9 11 13 15 16 16 16 16 (shaded area: resolution truncated to 16 bits due to output register size RegAcOut[15:0]) Table 16-22 Resolution vs. SET_OSR[2:0] and SET_NELC[1:0] settings (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 16-14 XE8801A - SX8801R Using look-up Table 16-22 or the graph plotted in Figure 16-6, resolution can be set between 6 and 16 bits. Notice that, because of 16-bit register use for the ADC output, practical resolution is limited to 16 bits, i.e. n 16. Even if the resolution is truncated to 16 bit by the output register size, it may make sense to set OSR and NELCONV to higher values in order to reduce the influence of the thermal noise in the PGA (see section 16.8.4). 16.7.6 Conversion Time & Throughput fo r As explained using Figure 16-5, conversion time is given by: TCONV = ( N ELCONV (OSR + 1) + 1) / f S (s) (Eq. 16) ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d and throughput is then simply 1/TCONV. For example, consider an over-sampling ratio of 256, 2 elementary conversions, and a sampling frequency of 500kHz (SET_OSR = "101", SET_NELC = "01", fRC = 2MHz, and FIN = "00"). In this case, using Table 16-23, the conversion time is 515 sampling periods, or 1.03ms. This corresponds to a throughput of 971Hz in continuous-time mode.

Maximum input voltage is given by: Gain defined as overall PGA gain GDTOT VIN,MAX = (VREF/2)(OSR/OSR+1). Offset due to tolerance on GDoff2 or GDoff3 setting. For small intrinsic offset, use only ADC and PGA1. Measured with block connected to inputs through AMUX block. Normalized input sampling frequency for input impedance is fS = 512kHz. This figure must be multiplied by 2 for fS = 256kHz, 4 for fS = 128kHz. Input impedance is proportional to 1/fS. See model of Figure 16-18(a). Figure independent from PGA1 gain and sampling frequency fS. See equation Eq. 21 to calculate equivalent input noise. Figure independent on PGA2 gain and sampling frequency fS.

See model of Figure 16-18(a) and equation Eq. 21 to calculate equivalent input noise. Resolution is given by n = 2log2(OSR) + log2(NELCONV). OSR can be set between 8 and 1024, in powers of 2. NELCONV can be set to 1, 2, 4 or 8. If a ramp signal is applied to the input, all digital codes appear in the resulting ADC output data. Gain error is defined as the amount of deviation between the ideal (theoretical) transfer function and the measured transfer function (with the offset error removed). (See Figure 16-19) Offset error is defined as the output code error for a zero volt input (ideally, output code = 0). For 1 LSB offset, NELCONV must be 2. INL defined as the deviation of the DC transfer curve of each individual code from the best-fit straight line. This specification holds over the full scale. DNL is defined as the difference (in LSB) between the ideal (1 LSB) and measured code transitions for successive codes. Figures for Gains = 1 to 100. PSRR is defined as the amount of change in the ADC output value as the power supply voltage changes. Conversion time is given by: TCONV = (NELCONV (OSR + 1) + 1) / fS. OSR can be set between 8 and 1024, in powers of 2. NELCONV can be set to 1, 2, 4 or 8. PGAs are reset after each writing operation to registers RegAcCfg1-5. The ADC must be started after a PGA or inputs common-mode stabilisation delay. This is done by writing bit Start several cycles after PGA settings modification or channel switching. Delay between PGA start or input channel switching and ADC start should be equivalent to OSR (between 8 and 1024) number of cycles. This delay does not apply to conversions made without the PGAs. Nominal (maximum) bias currents in PGAs and ADC, i.e. IB_AMP_PGA[1:0] = `11' and IB_AMP_ADC[1:0] = `11'. Bias currents in PGAs and ADC set to 3/4 of nominal values, i.e. IB_AMP_PGA[1:0] = `10', IB_AMP_ADC[1:0] = `10'. Bias currents in PGAs and ADC set to 1/2 of nominal values, i.e. IB_AMP_PGA[1:0] = `01', IB_AMP_ADC[1:0] = `01'. Bias currents in PGAs and ADC set to 1/4 of nominal values, i.e. IB_AMP_PGA[1:0] = `00', IB_AMP_ADC[1:0] = `00'.

First of all, the non-linearity of the ADC (all PGA stages bypassed) is shown in Figure 16-8. Figure 16-8 Integral non-linearity of the ADC (PGA disabled, reference voltage of 4.8V) The different PGA stages have been designed to find the best compromise between the noise performance, the integral non-linearity and the power consumption. To obtain this, the first stage has the best noise performance and the third stage the best linearity performance. For large input signals (small PGA gains, i.e. up to about 50), the noise added by the PGA is very small with respect to the input signal and the second and third stage of the PGA should be used to get the best linearity. For small input signals (large gains, i.e. above 50), the noise level in the PGA is important and the first stage of the PGA should be used. N ot R The following figures give the non-linearity for different gain settings of the PGA, selecting the appropriate stage to get the best noise and linearity performance. Figure 16-9 shows the non-linearity when the third stage is used with a gain of 1. It is of course not very useful to use the PGA with a gain of 1 unless it is used to compensate offset. By increasing the gain, the integral non-linearity becomes even smaller since the signal in the amplifiers reduces. Figure 16-10 shows the non-linearity for a gain of 2. Figure 16-11 shows the non-linearity for a gain of 5. Figure 16-12 shows the non-linearity for a gain of 10. By comparing these figures to Figure 16-8, it can be seen that the third stage of the PGA does not add significant integral non-linearity. Figure 16-13 shows the non-linearity for a gain of 20 and Figure 16-14 shows the non-linearity for a gain of 50. In both cases the PGA2 is used at a gain of 10 and the remaining gain is realized by the third stage. It can be seen again that the second stage of the PGA does not add significant non-linearity. For gains above 50, the first stage PGA1 should be selected in stead of PGA2. Although the non-linearity in the first stage of the PGA is larger than in stage 2 and 3, the gain in stage 3 is now sufficiently high so that the non-linearity of the first stage does become negligible as is shown in Figure 16-15 for a gain of 100. Therefor, the first stage is preferred over the second stage since it has less noise. Increasing the gain further up to 1000 will further increase the linearity since the signal becomes very small in the first two stages. The signal is full scale at the output of stage 3 and as shown in Figure 16-9 to Figure 16-12, this stage has very good linearity.

However, because of circuit noise, the output code may vary for a fixed input voltage. Thus, a statistical analysis on the output code of 1200 conversions for a constant input voltage was performed to derive the equivalent noise levels of PGA1, PGA2, and PGA3. The extracted rms output noise of PGA1, 2, and 3 are given in Table 16-27: standard output deviation and output rms noise voltage. Figure 16-17 shows the distribution for the ADC alone (PGA1, 2, and 3 bypassed). Quantization noise is dominant in this case, and, thus, the ADC thermal noise is below 16 bits. The simple noise model of Figure 16-18(a) is used to estimate the equivalent input referred rms noise VN,IN of the acquisition chain in the model of Figure 16-18(b). This is given by the relationship: (V N 1 / GD1 ) 2 + (V N 2 /(GD1 GD2 )) 2 + (V N 3 /(GD1 GD2 GD3 )) 2 (OSR N ELCONV ) (V2rms) (Eq. 21) N ot 2 R V N , IN = where VN1, VN2, and VN3 are the output rms noise figures of Table 16-27, GD1, GD2, and GD3 are the PGA gains of stages 1 to 3 respectively. As shown in this equation, noise can be reduced by increasing OSR and NELCONV (increases the ADC averaging effect, but reduces noise).

In this case, the noise contribution VN1 of PGA1 is dominant over that of PGA2. Using equation Eq. 21, we get: VN,IN = 6.4V (rms) at the input of the acquisition chain, or, equivalently, 0.85 LSB at the output of the ADC. Considering a 0.2V (rms) maximum signal amplitude, the signal-to-noise ratio is 90dB. Noise can also be reduced by implementing a software filter. By making an average on a number of subsequent measurements, the apparent noise is reduced the square root of the number of measurement used to make the average. 16.8.5 Gain Error and Offset Error Gain error is defined as the amount of deviation between the ideal transfer function (theoretical equation Eq. 18) and the measured transfer function (with the offset error removed). The actual gain of the different stages can vary depending on the fabrication tolerances of the different elements. Although these tolerances are specified to a maximum of 3%, they will be most of the time around 0.5%. Moreover, the tolerances between the different stages are not correlated and the probability to get the maximal error in the same direction in all stages is very low. Finally, these gain errors can be calibrated by the software at the same time with the gain errors of the sensor for instance. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 16-25 XE8801A - SX8801R Figure 16-19 shows gain error drift vs. temperature for different PGA gains. The curves are expressed in % of FullScale Range (FSR) normalized to 25C. Offset error is defined as the output code error for a zero volt input (ideally, output code = 0). The offset of the ADC and the PGA1 stage are completely suppressed if NELCONV > 1. fo r The measured offset drift vs. temperature curves for different PGA gains are depicted in Figure 16-20.

As shown in Figure 16-22, if lower sampling frequency is used, the quiescent current consumption can be lowered by reducing the bias currents of the PGAs and the ADC with registers IB_AMP_PGA [1:0] and IB_AMP_ADC [1:0]. (In Figure 16-22, IB_AMP_PGA/ADC[1:0] = '11', '10', '00' for fS = 500, 250, 62.5kHz respectively.)

For this reason, while a conversion is done, the input impedance on the selected channel of the PGAs is inversely proportional to the sampling frequency fS and to stage gain as given in equation 22. 768 10 9 Hz f s gain (Eq. 22) The input impedance observed is the input impedance of the first PGA stage that is enabled or the input impedance of the ADC if all three stages are disabled. PGA1 (with a gain of 10), PGA2 (with a gain of 10) and PGA3 (with a gain of 10) each have a minimum input impedance of 150k at fS = 512kHz (see Specification Table). Larger input impedance can be obtained by reducing the gain and/or by reducing the sampling frequency. Therefor, with a gain of 1 and a sampling frequency of 100kHz, Zin > 7.6M. The input impedance on channels that are not selected is very high (>100M). 16.9.2 PGA Settling or Input Channel Modifications N ot R PGAs are reset after each writing operation to registers RegAcCfg1-5. Similarly, input channels are switched after modifications of AMUX[4:0] or VMUX. To ensure precise conversion, the ADC must be started after a PGA or inputs common-mode stabilization delay. This is done by writing bit START several cycles after PGA settings modification or channel switching. Delay between PGA start or input channel switching and ADC start should be equivalent to OSR (between 8 and 1024) number of cycles. This delay does not apply to conversions made without the PGAs. If the ADC is not settled within the specified period, there is most probably an input impedance problem (see previous section). 16.9.3 PGA Gain & Offset, Linearity and Noise Hereafter are a few design guidelines that should be taken into account when using the ZoomingADCTM: 1) 2) 3) 4) Keep in mind that increasing the overall PGA gain, or "zooming" coefficient, improves linearity but degrades noise performance. Use the minimum number of PGA stages necessary to produce the desired gain ("zooming") and offset. Bypass unnecessary PGAs. For high gains (>50), use PGA stage 1. For low gains (<50) use stages 2 and 3. For the lowest noise, set the highest possible gain on the first (front) PGA stage used in the chain. For example, in an application where a gain of 20 is needed, set the gain of PGA2 to 10, set the gain of PGA3 to 2. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 16-29 XE8801A - SX8801R 5) 6) 16.9.4 For highest linearity and lowest noise performance, bypass all PGAs and use the ADC alone (applications where no "zooming" is needed); i.e. set ENABLE[3:0] = '0001'. For low-noise applications where power consumption is not a primary concern, maintain the largest bias currents in the PGAs and in the ADC; i.e. set IB_AMP_PGA[1:0] = IB_AMP_ADC[1:0] = '11'. For lowest output offset error at the output of the ADC, bypass PGA2 and PGA3. Indeed, PGA2 and PGA3 typically introduce an offset of about 5 to 10 LSB (16 bit) at their output. Note, however, that the ADC output offset is easily calibrated out by software. Frequency Response fo r 4) f NOTCH (i ) = ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d The incremental ADC is an over-sampled converter with two main blocks: an analog modulator and a low-pass digital filter. The main function of the digital filter is to remove the quantization noise introduced by the modulator. As shown in Figure 16-26, this filter determines the frequency response of the transfer function between the output of the ADC and the analog input VIN. Notice that the frequency axes are normalized to one elementary conversion period OSR/fS. The plots of Figure 16-26 also show that the frequency response changes with the number of elementary conversions NELCONV performed. In particular, notches appear for NELCONV 2. These notches occur at: i fS OSR N ELCONV (Hz) for i = 1,2,..., ( N ELCONV - 1) (Eq. 23) and are repeated every fS/OSR. N ot R Information on the location of these notches is particularly useful when specific frequencies must be filtered out by the acquisition system. For example, consider a 5Hz-bandwidth, 16-bit sensing system where 50Hz line rejection is needed. Using the above equation and the plots below, we set the 4th notch for NELCONV = 4 to 50Hz, i.e. 1.25fS/OSR = 50Hz. The sampling frequency is then calculated as fS = 20.48kHz for OSR = 512. Notice that this choice yields also good attenuation of 50Hz harmonics.

When very low power consumption is of primary concern, such as in battery operated systems, several parameters can be used to reduce power consumption as follows: N ot 5) Operate the acquisition chain with a reduced supply voltage VDD. Disable the PGAs which are not used during analog-to-digital conversion with ENABLE[3:0]. Disable all PGAs and the ADC when the system is idle and no conversion is performed. Use lower bias currents in the PGAs and the ADC using the control words IB_AMP_PGA[1:0] and IB_AMP_ADC[1:0]. (This reduces the maximum sampling frequency according to Table 16-26.) Reduce internal RC oscillator frequency and/or sampling frequency. R 1) 2) 3) 4) Finally, remember that power reduction is typically traded off with reduced linearity, larger noise and slower maximum sampling speed.

To stop the counter X, CntXEnable must be reset. To start the counter X, CntXEnable must be set. When counters are cascaded, CntAEnable and CntCEnable also control respectively the counters B and D. fo r In the control registers, all registers must be written in this order: RegCntCtrlCk, RegCntConfig1, RegCntConfig2 and all RegCntX because several bits have no default values at reset. ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d All counters have a corresponding 8-bit read/write register: RegCntA, RegCntB, RegCntC, and RegCntD. When read, these registers contain the counter value (or the captured counter value). When written, they modify the counter comparison values. For a correct acquisition of the counter value, use one of the three following methods: 1) Stop the concerned counter, perform the read operation and restart the counter. While stopped, the counter content is frozen and the counter does not take into account the clock edges delivered on the external pin. 2) For slow operating counters (typically at least 8 times slower than the CPU clock), oversample the counter content and perform a majority operation on the consecutive read results to select the correct actual content of the counter. 3) Use the capture mechanism. When a value is written into the counter register while the counter is in counter mode, both the comparison value is updated and the counter value is modified. In upcount mode, the register value is reset to zero. In downcount mode, the comparison value is loaded into the counter. Due to the synchronization mechanism between the processor clock domain and the external clock source domain, this modification of the counter value can be postponed until the counter is enabled and it receives it's first valid clock edge. R In the PWM mode, the counter value is not modified by the write operation in the counter register. Changing the counter mode, does not update the counter value (no load in downcount mode). N ot 18.7 Clock selection The clock source for each counter can be individually selected by writing the appropriate value in the register RegCntCtrlCk. Table 18-10 gives the correspondence between the binary codes used for the configuration bits CntACkSel(1:0), CntBCkSel(1:0), CntCCkSel(1:0) or CntDCkSel(1:0) and the clock source selected respectively for the counters A, B, C or D.

The clocks below 32kHz can be derived from the RC oscillator or the crystal oscillator (see the documentation of the clock block). A separate external clock source can be delivered on Port A for each individual counter. The external clock sources can be debounced or not by setting the Port A configuration registers. The clock source can be changed only when the counter is stopped. fo r 18.8 Counter mode selection Each counter can work in one of the following modes: ec N o ew m m D e es n ig de ns d 1) Counter, downcount & upcount 2) Captured counter, downcount & upcount (only counters A&B) 3) PWM, downcount The counters A and B or C and D can be cascaded or not. In cascaded mode, A and C are the LSB counters while B and D are the MSB counters. Table 18-11 shows the different operation modes of the counters A and B as a function of the mode control bits. For all counter modes, the source of the down or upcount selection is given (either the bit CntADownUp or the bit CntBDownUp).

The mapping of the interrupt sources IrqC and IrqD and the PWM output on PB(1) in these different modes is also shown. The switching between different modes must be done while the concerned counters are stopped.

Each counter can be set individually either in upcount mode by setting CntXDownUp in the register RegCntConfig1 or in downcount mode by resetting this bit. Counters A and B can be cascaded to behave as a 16 bit counter by setting CascadeAB in the RegCntConfig1 register. Counters C and D can be cascaded by setting CascadeCD. When cascaded, the up/down count modes of the counters B and D are defined respectively by the up/down count modes set for the counters A and C. When in upcount mode, the counter will start incrementing from zero up to the target value which has been written in the corresponding RegCntX register(s). When the counter content is equal to the target value, an interrupt is generated at the next falling edge of counter clock. Then the counter is loaded again with the zero value at the next rising edge of counter clock (Figure 18-2). N ot R When in downcount mode, the counter will start decrementing from the initial load value which has been written in the corresponding RegCntX register(s) down to the zero value. Once the counter content is equal to zero, an interrupt is generated at the next falling edge of counter clock. Then the counter is loaded again with the load value at the next rising edge of counter clock (Figure 18-2). Be careful to select the counter mode (no capture, not PWM, specify cascaded or not and up or down counting mode) before writing any target or load value to the RegCntX register(s). This ensures that the counter will start from the correct initial value. When counters are cascaded, both counter registers must be written to ensure that both cascaded counters will start from the correct initial values. The stopping and consecutive starting of a counter in counter mode without a target or load value write operation in between can generate an interrupt if this counter has been stopped at the zero value (downcount) or at it's target value (upcount). This interrupt is additional to the interrupt which has already been generated when the counter reached the zero or the target value.

Up and down count interrupt generation. R 18.10 PWM mode The counters can generate PWM signals (Pulse Width Modulation) on the Port B outputs PB(0) and PB(1). N ot The PWM mode is selected by setting CntPWM1 and CntPWM0 in the RegCntConfig1 register. See Table 18-11 and Table 18-12 for an exact description of how the setting of CntPWM1 and CntPWM0 affects the operating mode of the counters A, B, C and D according to the other configuration settings. When CntPWM0 is enabled, the PWMA or PWMAB output value overrides the value set in bit 0 of RegPBOut in the Port B peripheral. When CntPWM1 is enabled, the PWMC or PWMCD output value overrides the value set in bit 1 of RegPBOut. The corresponding ports (0 and/or 1) of Port B must be set in digital mode and as output and either open drain or not and pull up or not through a proper setting of the control registers of the Port B. Counters in PWM mode always count down, the CntXDownUp bit setting must be reset. No interrupts and events are generated by the counters which are in PWM mode. Counters do count circularly: they restart at the maximal value (either 0xFF when not cascaded or 0xFFFF when cascaded) when respectively an underflow condition occurs in the counting. The internal PWM signals are low as long as the counter contents are higher than the PWM code values written in the RegCntX registers. They are high when the counter contents are smaller or equal to these PWM code values. The PWM resolution is always 8 bits when the counters used for the PWM signal generation are not cascaded. PWM0Size(1:0) and PWM1Size(1:0) in the RegCntConfig2 register are used to set the PWM resolution for the (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 18-8 XE8801A - SX8801R counters A and B or C and D respectively when they are in cascaded mode. The different possible resolutions in cascaded mode are shown in Table 18-13. Choosing a 16 bit PWM code higher than the maximum value that can be represented by the number of bits chosen for the resolution, results in a PWM output which is always tied to 1.

It provides a safe reading mechanism for the counters A and B when they are running. When the capture function is active, the processor does not read anymore the counters A and B directly, but instead reads shadow registers located in the capture block. An interrupt is generated after a capture condition has been met when the shadow register content is updated. The capture condition is user defined by selecting either internal capture signal sources derived from the prescaler or from the external PA(2) or PA(3) ports. Both counters use the same capture condition. (c) Semtech 2005 www.semtech.com 18-9 XE8801A - SX8801R When the capture function is active, the A and B counters must be written with the value 0xFF and can either upcount or downcount. They do count circularly: they restart at zero or at the maximal value (either 0xFF when not cascaded or 0xFFFF when cascaded) when respectively an overflow or an underflow condition occurs in the counting.

The source of the capture signal can be selected by setting CapSel(1:0) in the RegCntConfig2 register. For all sources, rising, falling or both edge sensitivity can be selected. Table 18-14 shows the capture condition as a function of the setting of these configuration bits. 32 K PA3 PA2 Table 18-14: Capture condition selection R CapFunc(1:0) and CapSel(1:0) can be modified only when the counters are stopped otherwise data may be corrupted during one counter clock cycle. N ot Due to the synchronization mechanism of the shadow registers and depending on the frequency ratio between the capture and counter clocks, the interrupts may be generated one or only two counter clock pulses after the effective capture condition occurred. When the counters A and B are not cascaded and do not operate on the same clock, the interruptions on IrqA and IrqB which inform that the capture condition was met, may appear at different moments. In this case, the processor should read the shadow register associated to a counter only if the interruption related to this counter has been detected. It must be noted that when counters A and B are cascaded, the capture might happen at different cycles for the A and B registers. This is due to the asynchronous relationship between counter and capture clock and to the fact that the capture condition detection is independent for A and B counters.

VldRange selects the voltage range to be detected, while VldTune is used to fine-tune this voltage level in 8 steps. VldEn is used to enable (disable) the VLD with a 1(0) value respectively. When disabled, the block dissipates no power.

The measurement is started. R After 2ms, the bit VldValid is set to indicate that the measurement results are valid. From that time on, as long as the VLD is enabled, a maskable interrupt request is sent if the voltage level falls below the threshold. One can also poll the VLD and monitor the actual measurement result by reading the VldResult bit of the RegVldStat. This result is only valid as long as the VldValid bit is `1'. N ot An interrupt is generated on each rising edge of VldResult.
