MARC4 Architecture  
General Description  
The MARC4 microcontroller consists of an advanced stack-based, 4-bit CPU core and  
on-chip peripherals. The CPU is based on the HARVARD architecture with physically  
separate program memory (ROM) and data memory (RAM). Three independent buses,  
the instruction bus, the memory bus and the I/O bus, are used for parallel communica-  
tion between ROM, RAM and peripherals. This enhances program execution speed by  
allowing both instruction prefetching, and a simultaneous communication to the on-chip  
peripheral circuitry. The extremely powerful integrated interrupt controller with associ-  
ated eight prioritized interrupt levels supports fast and efficient processing of hardware  
events. The MARC4 is designed for the high-level programming language qFORTH.  
The core includes both an expression and a return stack. This architecture enables  
high-level language programming without any loss of efficiency or code density.

Components of MARC4  
Core  
The core contains ROM, RAM, ALU, a program counter, RAM address registers, an  
instruction decoder and an interrupt controller. The following sections describe each  
functional block in more detail.  
ROM  
The program memory (ROM) is mask programmed with the customer application pro-  
gram during the fabrication of the microcontroller. The ROM is addressed by a 12-bit  
wide program counter, thus predefining a maximum program bank size of 4 Kbytes. An  
additional 1 Kbyte of ROM exists which is reserved for quality control self-test software.  
The lowest user ROM address segment is taken up by a 512-byte zero page which con-  
tains predefined start addresses for interrupt service routines and special subroutines  
accessible with single byte instructions (SCALL).  
The corresponding memory map is shown in Figure 4. Look-up tables of constants can  
also be held in ROM and are accessed via the MARC4’s built-in table instruction.

RAM  
The ATAR092-C and ATAR892-C contain 256 x 4-bit wide static random access mem-  
ory (RAM). It is used for the expression stack, the return stack and data memory for  
variables and arrays. The RAM is addressed by any of the four 8-bit wide RAM address  
registers SP, RP, X and Y.  
Expression Stack  
The 4-bit wide expression stack is addressed with the expression stack pointer (SP). All  
arithmetic, I/O and memory reference operations take their operands from, and return  
their results to the expression stack. The MARC4 performs the operations with the top of  
stack items (TOS and TOS-1). The TOS register contains the top element of the expres-  
sion stack and works in the same way as an accumulator. This stack is also used for  
passing parameters between subroutines and as a scratch pad area for temporary stor-  
age of data.  
Return Stack  
The 12-bit wide return stack is addressed by the return stack pointer (RP). It is used for  
storing return addresses of subroutines, interrupt routines and for keeping loop index  
counts. The return stack can also be used as a temporary storage area.  
The MARC4 instruction set supports the exchange of data between the top elements of  
the expression stack and the return stack. The two stacks within the RAM have a user  
definable location and maximum depth.

Registers  
The MARC4 controller has seven programmable registers and one condition code regis-  
ter. They are shown in the following programming model (Figure 6).  
Program Counter (PC)  
The program counter is a 12-bit register which contains the address of the next instruc-  
tion to be fetched from ROM. Instructions currently being executed are decoded in the  
instruction decoder to determine the internal micro-operations. For linear code (no calls  
or branches) the program counter is incremented with every instruction cycle. If a  
branch-, call-, return-instruction or an interrupt is executed, the program counter is  
loaded with a new address. The program counter is also used with the table instruction  
to fetch 8-bit wide ROM constants.

RAM Address Registers  
The RAM is addressed with four 8-bit wide RAM address registers: SP, RP, X and Y.  
These registers allow access to any of the 256 RAM nibbles.  
Expression Stack Pointer (SP)  
The stack pointer contains the address of the next-to-top 4-bit item (TOS-1) of the  
expression stack. The pointer is automatically pre-incremented if a nibble is moved onto  
the stack or post-decremented if a nibble is removed from the stack. Every post-decre-  
ment operation moves the item (TOS-1) to the TOS register before the SP is  
decremented. After a reset the stack pointer has to be initialized with >SP S0 to allocate  
the start address of the expression stack area.  
Return Stack Pointer (RP)  
The return stack pointer points to the top element of the 12-bit wide return stack. The  
pointer automatically pre-increments if an element is moved onto the stack, or it post-  
decrements if an element is removed from the stack. The return stack pointer incre-  
ments and decrements in steps of 4. This means that every time a 12-bit element is  
stacked, a 4-bit RAM location is left unwritten. This location is used by the qFORTH  
compiler to allocate 4-bit variables. After a reset the return stack pointer has to be initial-  
ized via >RP FCh.  
RAM Address Registers  
(X and Y)  
The X and Y registers are used to address any 4-bit item in RAM. A fetch operation  
moves the addressed nibble onto the TOS. A store operation moves the TOS to the  
addressed RAM location. By using either the pre-increment or post-decrement address-  
ing mode, arrays located in RAM can be compared, filled or moved  
Top of Stack (TOS)  
The top of stack register is the accumulator of the MARC4. All arithmetic/logic, memory  
reference and I/O operations use this register. The TOS register receives data from the  
ALU, ROM, RAM or I/O bus.  
Condition Code Register (CCR) The 4-bit wide condition code register contains the branch, the carry and the interrupt  
enable flag. These bits indicate the current state of the CPU. The CCR flags are set or  
reset by ALU operations. The instructions SET_BCF, TOG_BF, CCR! and DI allow  
direct manipulation of the condition code register.  
Carry/Borrow (C)  
The carry/borrow flag indicates that the borrowing or carrying out of Arithmetic Logic  
Unit (ALU) occurred during the last arithmetic operation. During shift and rotate opera-  
tions, this bit is used as a fifth bit. Boolean operations have no affect on the C-flag.  
Branch (B)  
The branch flag controls conditional program branching. Should the branch flag have  
been set by a previous instruction, a conditional branch will cause a jump. This flag is  
affected by arithmetic, logic, shift, and rotate operations.  
Interrupt Enable (I)  
The interrupt enable flag globally enables or disables the triggering of all interrupt rou-  
tines with the exception of the non-maskable reset. After a reset or while executing the  
DI instruction, the interrupt enable flag is reset, thus disabling all interrupts. The core will  
not accept any further interrupt requests until the interrupt enable flag has been set  
again by either executing an EI or SLEEP instruction.  
ALU  
The 4-bit ALU performs all the arithmetic, logical, shift and rotate operations with the top  
two elements of the expression stack (TOS and TOS-1) and returns the result to the  
TOS. The ALU operations affect the carry/borrow and branch flag in the condition code  
register (CCR).

I/O Bus  
The I/O ports and the registers of the peripheral modules are I/O mapped. All communi-  
cation between the core and the on-chip peripherals takes place via the I/O bus and the  
associated I/O control. With the MARC4 IN and OUT instructions the I/O bus allows a  
direct read or write access to one of the 16 primary I/O addresses. More about the I/O  
access to the on-chip peripherals is described in the section “Peripheral Modules”. The  
I/O bus is internal and is not accessible by the customer on the final microcontroller  
device, but it is used as the interface for the MARC4 emulation (see also the section  
“Emulation”).  
Instruction Set  
The MARC4 instruction set is optimized for the high level programming language  
qFORTH. Many MARC4 instructions are qFORTH words. This enables the compiler to  
generate a fast and compact program code. The CPU has an instruction pipeline allow-  
ing the controller to prefetch an instruction from ROM at the same time as the present  
instruction is being executed. The MARC4 is a zero-address machine, the instructions  
contain only the operation to be performed and no source or destination address fields.  
The operations are implicitly performed on the data placed on the stack. There are one  
and two byte instructions which are executed within 1 to 4 machine cycles. A MARC4  
machine cycle is made up of two system clock cycles (SYSCL). Most of the instructions  
are only one byte long and are executed in a single machine cycle. For more information  
refer to the “MARC4 Programmer’s Guide”.  
Interrupt Structure  
The MARC4 can handle interrupts with eight different priority levels. They can be gener-  
ated from the internal and external interrupt sources or by a software interrupt from the  
CPU itself. Each interrupt level has a hard-wired priority and an associated vector for the  
service routine in the ROM (see Table 1 on page 3). The programmer can postpone the  
processing of interrupts by resetting the interrupt enable flag (I) in the CCR. An interrupt  
occurrence will still be registered, but the interrupt routine only started after the I flag is  
set. All interrupts can be masked, and the priority individually software configured by  
programming the appropriate control register of the interrupting module (see section  
“Peripheral Modules”).  
Interrupt Processing  
For processing the eight interrupt levels, the MARC4 includes an interrupt controller with  
two 8-bit wide interrupt pending and interrupt active registers. The interrupt controller  
samples all interrupt requests during every non-I/O instruction cycle and latches these in  
the interrupt pending register. If no higher priority interrupt is present in the interrupt  
active register, it signals the CPU to interrupt the current program execution. If the inter-  
rupt enable bit is set, the processor enters an interrupt acknowledge cycle. During this  
cycle a short call (SCALL) instruction to the service routine is executed and the current  
PC is saved on the return stack.  
7
4593B–4BMCU–03/04  
An interrupt service routine is completed with the RTI instruction. This instruction resets  
the corresponding bits in the interrupt pending/active register and fetches the return  
address from the return stack to the program counter. When the interrupt enable flag is  
reset (triggering of interrupt routines are disabled), the execution of new interrupt ser-  
vice routines is inhibited but not the logging of the interrupt requests in the interrupt  
pending register. The execution of the interrupt is delayed until the interrupt enable flag  
is set again. Note that interrupts are only lost if an interrupt request occurs while the cor-  
responding bit in the pending register is still set (i.e., the interrupt service routine is not  
yet finished).  
It should also be noted that automatic stacking of the RBR is not carried out by the hard-  
ware and so if ROM banking is used, the RBR must be stacked on the expression stack  
by the application program and restored before the RTI. After a master reset (power-on,  
brown-out or watchdog reset), the interrupt enable flag and the interrupt pending and  
interrupt active register are all reset.  
Interrupt Latency  
The interrupt latency is the time from the occurrence of the interrupt to the interrupt ser-  
vice routine being activated. In MARC4 this is extremely short (taking between 3 to  
5 machine cycles depending on the state of the core).

Software Interrupts  
The programmer can generate interrupts by using the software interrupt instruction  
(SWI) which is supported in qFORTH by predefined macros named SWI0...SWI7. The  
software triggered interrupt operates exactly like any hardware triggered interrupt. The  
SWI instruction takes the top two elements from the expression stack and writes the cor-  
responding bits via the I/O bus to the interrupt pending register. Therefore, by using the  
SWI instruction, interrupts can be re-prioritized or lower priority processes scheduled for  
later execution.  
Hardware Interrupts  
In the ATAR092-C, there are eleven hardware interrupt sources with seven different lev-  
els. Each source can be masked individually by mask bits in the corresponding control  
registers. An overview of the possible hardware configurations is shown in Table 3 on  
page 9.  
Master Reset  
The master reset forces the CPU into a well-defined condition. It is unmaskable and is  
activated independent of the current program state. It can be triggered by either initial  
supply power-up, a short collapse of the power supply, brown-out detection circuitry,  
watchdog time-out, or an external input clock supervisor stage (see Figure 9 on page  
10).  
9
4593B–4BMCU–03/04  
A master reset activation will reset the interrupt enable flag, the interrupt pending regis-  
ter and the interrupt active register. During the power-on reset phase the I/O bus control  
signals are set to reset mode thereby initializing all on-chip peripherals. All bi-directional  
ports are set to input mode.  
Attention: During any reset phase, the BP20/NTE input is driven towards VDD by an  
additional internal strong pull-up transistor. This pin must not be pulled down to VSS dur-  
ing reset by any external circuitry representing a resistor of less than 150 k.  
Releasing the reset results in a short call instruction (opcode C1h) to the ROM address  
008h. This activates the initialization routine $RESET which in turn has to initialize all  
necessary RAM variables, stack pointers and peripheral configuration registers (see  
Table 10 on page 21).

Power-on Reset and  
Brown-out Detection  
The ATAR092-C/ATAR892-C have a fully integrated power-on reset and brown-out  
detection circuitry. For reset generation no external components are needed.  
These circuits ensure that the core is held in the reset state until the minimum operating  
supply voltage has been reached. A reset condition will also be generated should the  
supply voltage drop momentarily below the minimum operating level except when a  
power down mode is activated (the core is in SLEEP mode and the peripheral clock is  
stopped). In this power-down mode the brown-out detection is disabled. Two values for  
the brown-out voltage threshold are programmable via the BOT bit in the SC register.  
A power-on reset pulse is generated by a VDD rise across the default BOT voltage level  
(1.7 V). A brown-out reset pulse is generated when VDD falls below the brown-out volt-  
age threshold. Two values for the brown-out voltage threshold are programmable via  
the BOT bit in the SC register. When the controller runs in the upper supply voltage  
range with a high system clock frequency, the high threshold must be used. When it  
runs with a lower system clock frequency, the low threshold and a wider supply voltage  
range may be chosen. For further details, see the electrical specification and the SC  
register description for BOT programming.

Watchdog Reset  
The watchdog’s function can be enabled at the WDC register and triggers a reset with  
every watchdog counter overflow. To suppress the watchdog reset, the watchdog  
counter must be regularly reset by reading the watchdog register address (CWD). The  
CPU reacts in exactly the same manner as a reset stimulus from any of the above  
sources.  
External Clock Supervisor  
The external input clock supervisor function can be enabled if the external input clock is  
selected within the CM and SC registers of the clock module. The CPU reacts in exactly  
the same manner as a reset stimulus from any of the above sources.  
Voltage Monitor  
The voltage monitor consists of a comparator with internal voltage reference. It is used  
to supervise the supply voltage or an external voltage at the VMI pin. The comparator for  
the supply voltage has three internal programmable thresholds: one lower threshold  
(2.2 V), one middle threshold (2.6 V). and one higher threshold (3.0 V). For external volt-  
ages at the VMI pin, the comparator threshold is set to VBG = 1.3 V. The VMS bit  
indicates if the supervised voltage is below (VMS = 0) or above (VMS = 1) this thresh-  
old. An interrupt can be generated when the VMS bit is set or reset to detect a rising or  
falling slope. A voltage monitor interrupt (INT7) is enabled when the interrupt mask bit  
(VIM) is reset in the VMC-register.

Clock Generation  
Clock Module  
The ATAR092-C/ATAR892-C contains a clock module with 4 different internal oscillator  
types: two RC-oscillators, one 4-MHz crystal oscillator and one 32-kHz crystal oscillator.  
The pins OSC1 and OSC2 are the interface to connect a crystal either to the 4-MHz, or  
to the 32-kHz crystal oscillator. OSC1 can be used as input for external clocks or to con-  
nect an external trimming resistor for the RC-oscillator 2. All necessary circuitry except  
the crystal and the trimming resistor is integrated on-chip. One of these oscillator types  
or an external input clock can be selected to generate the system clock (SYSCL).  
In applications that do not require exact timing, it is possible to use the fully integrated  
RC-oscillator 1 without any external components. The RC-oscillator 1 center frequency  
tolerance is better than ±50%. The RC-oscillator 2 is a trimmable oscillator whereby the  
oscillator frequency can be trimmed with an external resistor attached between OSC1  
and VDD. In this configuration, the RC-oscillator 2 frequency can be maintained in a sta-  
ble state with a tolerance of ±15% over the full operating temperature and voltage  
range.  
13  
4593B–4BMCU–03/04  
The clock module is programmable via software with the clock management register  
(CM) and the system configuration register (SC). The required oscillator configuration  
can be selected with the OS1 bit and the OS0 bit in the SC register. A programmable  
4-bit divider stage allows the adjustment of the system clock speed. A special feature of  
the clock management is that an external oscillator may be used and switched on and  
off via a port pin for the power-down mode. Before the external clock is switched off, the  
internal RC-oscillator 1 must be selected with the CCS bit and then the SLEEP mode  
may be activated. In this state an interrupt can wake up the controller with the RC-oscil-  
lator, and the external oscillator can be activated and selected by software. A  
synchronization stage avoids too short clock periods if the clock source or the clock  
speed is changed. If an external input clock is selected, a supervisor circuit monitors the  
external input and generates a hardware reset if the external clock source fails or drops  
below 500 kHz for more than 1 ms.

The clock module generates two output clocks. One is the system clock (SYSCL) and  
the other the periphery (SUBCL). The SYSCL can supply the core and the peripherals  
and the SUBCL can supply only the peripherals with clocks. The modes for clock  
sources are programmable with the OS1 bit and OS0 bit in the SC register and the CCS  
bit in the CM register.

Oscillator Circuits and

The ATAR092-C/ATAR892-C series consists of four different internal oscillators: two  
RC-oscillators, one 4-MHz crystal oscillator, one 32-kHz crystal oscillator and one exter-  
nal clock input stage.  
RC-oscillator 1 Fully Integrated  
For timing insensitive applications, it is possible to use the fully integrated RC  
oscillator 1. It operates without any external components and saves additional costs.  
The RC-oscillator 1 center frequency tolerance is better than ±50% over the full temper-  
ature and voltage range. The basic center frequency of the RC-oscillator 1 is  
fO 3.8 MHz. The RC oscillator 1 is selected by default after power-on reset.

External Input Clock  
The OSC1 or OSC2 (mask option) can be driven by an external clock source provided it  
meets the specified duty cycle, rise and fall times and input levels. Additionally the exter-  
nal clock stage contains a supervisory circuit for the input clock. The supervisor function  
is controlled via OS1, OS0 bit in the SC register and the CCS bit in the CM register. If  
the external input clock is missing for more than 1 ms and CCS = 0 is set in the CM reg-  
ister, the supervisory circuit generates a hardware reset.

RC-oscillator 2 with External  
Trimming Resistor  
The RC-oscillator 2 is a high resolution trimmable oscillator whereby the oscillator fre-  
quency can be trimmed with an external resistor between OSC1 and VDD. In this  
configuration, the RC-oscillator 2 frequency can be maintained in a stable state with a  
tolerance of ±10% over the full operating temperature range and stet voltage range VDD  
from 2.5 V to 6.0 V.  
For example: An output frequency at the RC-oscillator 2 of 2 MHz can be obtained by  
connecting a resistor Rext = 360 k(see Figure 17).

Some applications require long-term time keeping or low resolution timing. In this case,  
an on-chip, low power 32-kHz crystal oscillator can be used to generate both the  
SUBCL and the SYSCL. In this mode, power consumption is greatly reduced. The  
32-kHz crystal oscillator cannot be stopped while the power-down mode is in operation.

Power-down Modes  
The sleep mode is a shut-down condition which is used to reduce the average system  
power consumption in applications where the microcontroller is not fully utilized. In this  
mode, the system clock is stopped. The sleep mode is entered via the SLEEP instruc-  
tion. This instruction sets the interrupt enable bit (I) in the condition code register to  
enable all interrupts and stops the core. During the sleep mode the peripheral modules  
remain active and are able to generate interrupts. The microcontroller exits the sleep  
mode by carrying out any interrupt or a reset.  
The sleep mode can only be maintained when none of the interrupt pending or active  
register bits are set. The application of the $AUTOSLEEP routine ensures the correct  
function of the sleep mode. For standard applications use the $AUTOSLEEP routine to  
enter the power-down mode. Using the SLEEP instruction instead of the $AUTOSLEEP  
following an I/O instruction requires insertion of 3 non I/O instruction cycles (for example  
NOP NOP NOP) between the IN or OUT command and the SLEEP command.  
The total power consumption is directly proportional to the active time of the microcon-  
troller. For a rough estimation of the expected average system current consumption, the  
following formula should be used:  
Itotal (VDD,fsyscl) = ISleep + (IDD × tactive/ttotal  
)
IDD depends on VDD and fsyscl  
The ATAR092-C/ATAR892-C has various power-down modes. During the sleep mode  
the clock for the MARC4 core is stopped. With the NSTOP bit in the clock management  
register (CM) it is programmable if the clock for the on-chip peripherals is active or  
stopped during the sleep mode. If the clock for the core and the peripherals is stopped  
the selected oscillator is switched off. An exception is the 32-kHz oscillator, if it is  
selected it runs continuously independent of the NSTOP bit. If the oscillator is stopped  
or the 32-kHz oscillator is selected, power consumption is extremely low.

Peripheral Modules  
Addressing Peripherals  
Accessing the peripheral modules takes place via the I/O bus (see Figure 21). The IN or  
OUT instructions allow direct addressing of up to 16 I/O modules. A dual register  
addressing scheme has been adopted to enable direct addressing of the primary regis-  
ter. To address the auxiliary register, the access must be switched with an auxiliary  
switching module. Thus a single IN (or OUT) to the module address will read (or write  
into) the module primary register. Accessing the auxiliary register is performed with the  
same instruction preceded by writing the module address into the auxiliary switching  
module. Byte wide registers are accessed by multiple IN (or OUT) instructions. For more  
complex peripheral modules, with a larger number of registers, extended addressing is  
used. In this case, a bank of up to 16 subport registers are indirectly addressed with the  
subport address. The first OUT instruction writes the subport address to the sub address  
register, the second IN or OUT instruction reads data from or writes data to the  
addressed subport.

Bi-directional Ports  
With the exception of Port 1 and Port 6, all other ports (2, 4 and 5) are 4 bits wide. Port 1  
and Port 6 have a data width of 2 bits (bit 0 and bit 3). All ports may be used for data  
input or output. All ports are equipped with Schmitt trigger inputs and a variety of mask  
options for open drain, open source, full complementary outputs, pull-up and pull-down  
transistors. All Port Data Registers (PxDAT) are I/O mapped to the primary address reg-  
ister of the respective port address and the Port Control Register (PxCR), to the  
corresponding auxiliary register.  
There are five different directional ports available:  
Port 1  
Port 2  
Port 5  
2-bit wide bi-directional ports with automatic full bus width direction switching  
4-bit wide bitwise-programmable I/O port  
4-bit wide bitwise-programmable bi-directional port with optional strong  
pull-ups and programmable interrupt logic  
Port 4  
Port 6  
4-bit wide bitwise-programmable bi-directional port also provides the I/O  
interface to Timer 2, SSI, voltage monitor input and external interrupt input  
2-bit wide bitwise-programmable bi-directional port also provides the I/O  
interface to Timer 3 and the external interrupt input  
Bi-directional Port 1  
In Port 1 the data direction register is not independently software programmable, the  
direction of the complete port being switched automatically when an I/O instruction  
occurs (see Figure 22 on page 23). The port is switched to output mode via an OUT  
instruction and to input via an IN instruction. The data written to a port will be stored into  
the output data latches and appears immediately at the port pin following the OUT  
instruction. After RESET all output latches are set to 1 and the port is switched to input  
mode. An IN instruction reads the condition of the associated pins.  
Note:  
Care must be taken when switching the bi-directional port from output to input. The  
capacitive pin loading at this port in conjunction with the high resistance pull-ups may  
cause the CPU to read the contents of the output data register rather than the external  
input state. To avoid this, one of the following programming techniques should be used:  
Use two IN-instructions and DROP the first data nibble. The first IN switches the port  
from output to input and the DROP removes the first invalid nibble. The second IN reads  
the valid pin state.  
Use an OUT-instruction followed by an IN-instruction. Via the OUT-instruction, the capac-  
itive load is charged or discharged depending on the optional pull-up/pull-down  
configuration. Write a 1 for pins with pull-up resistors and a 0 for pins with pull-down  
resistors.

Bi-directional Port 2  
As all other bi-directional ports, this port includes a bitwise programmable Control Reg-  
ister (P2CR), which enables the individual programming of each port bit as input or  
output. It also opens up the possibility of reading the pin condition when in output mode.  
This is a useful feature for self testing and for serial bus applications.  
Port 2, however, has an increased drive capability and an additional low resistance  
pull-up/-down transistor mask option.  
Note:  
Care should be taken connecting external components to BP20/NTE. During any reset  
phase, the BP20/NTE input is driven towards VDD by an additional internal strong pull-up  
transistor. This pin must not be pulled down (active or passive) to VSS during reset by any  
external circuitry representing a resistor of less than 150 k. This prevents the circuit  
from unintended switching to test mode enable through the application circuitry at pin  
BP20/NTE. Resistors less than 150 kmight lead to an undefined state of the internal  
test logic thus disabling the application firmware.  
To avoid any conflict with the optional internal pull-down transistors, BP20 handles the  
pull-down options in a different way than all other ports. BP20 is the only port that  
switches off the pull-down transistors during reset.

Bi-directional Port 5  
As all other bi-directional ports, this port includes a bitwise programmable Control Reg-  
ister (P5CR), which allows the individual programming of each port bit as input or  
output. It also opens up the possibility of reading the pin condition when in output mode.  
This is a useful feature for self-testing and for serial bus applications.  
The port pins can also be used as external interrupt inputs (see Figure 24 on page 25  
and Figure 25 on page 25). The interrupts (INT1 and INT6) can be masked or indepen-  
dently configured to trigger on either edge. The interrupt configuration and port direction  
is controlled by the Port 5 Control Register (P5CR). An additional low resistance pull-  
up/-down transistor mask option provides an internal bus pull-up for serial bus  
applications.  
The Port 5 Data Register (P5DAT) is I/O mapped to the primary address register of  
address ‘5’h and the Port 5 Control Register (P5CR) to the corresponding auxiliary reg-  
ister. The P5CR is a byte-wide register and is configured by writing first the low nibble  
and then the high nibble (see section “Addressing Peripherals”).

Bi-directional Port 4  
The bi-directional Port 4 is a bitwise configurable I/O port and provides the external pins  
for Timer 2, SSI and the voltage monitor input (VMI). As a normal port, it performs in  
exactly the same way as bi-directional Port 2 (see Figure 23 on page 23). Two addi-  
tional multiplexes allow data and port direction control to be passed over to other  
internal modules (Timer 2, VM or SSI). The I/O pins for SC and SD lines have an addi-  
tional mode to generate an SSI-interrupt.  
All four Port 4 pins can be individually switched by the P4CR register. Figure 26 shows  
the internal interfaces to bi-directional Port 4.

Universal Timer/Counter/ The Universal Timer/Counter/Communication Module (UTCM) consists of three timers  
(Timer 1,Timer 2, Timer 3) and a Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI).  
Communication Module  
Timer 1 is an interval timer that can be used to generate periodic interrupts and as  
prescaler for Timer 2, Timer 3, the serial interface and the watchdog function.  
(UTCM)  
Timer 2 is an 8/12-bit timer with an external clock input (T2I) and an output (T2O).  
Timer 3 is an 8-bit timer/counter with its own input (T3I) and output (T3O).  
The SSI operates as a two-wire serial interface or as a shift register for modulation  
and demodulation. The modulator and demodulator units work together with the  
timers and shift the data bits into or out of the shift register.  
There is a multitude of modes in which the timers and the serial interface can work  
together.

Timer 1  
Timer 1 is an interval timer which can be used to generate periodic interrupts and as a  
prescaler for Timer 2, Timer 3, the serial interface and the watchdog function.  
Timer 1 consists of a programmable 14-stage divider that is driven by either SUBCL or  
SYSCL. The timer output signal can be used as a prescaler clock or as a SUBCL and as  
a source for the Timer 1 interrupt. Because of other system requirements the Timer 1  
output T1OUT is synchronized with SYSCL. Therefore, in the power-down mode SLEEP  
(CPU core -> sleep and OSC-Stop -> yes), the output T1OUT is stopped (T1OUT = 0).  
Nevertheless, Timer 1 can be active in SLEEP and generate Timer 1 interrupts. The  
interrupt is maskable via the T1IM bit and the SUBCL can be bypassed via the T1BP bit  
of the T1C2 register. The time interval for the timer output can be programmed via  
Timer 1 control register T1C1.  
This timer starts running automatically after any power-on reset. If the watchdog func-  
tion is not activated, the timer can be restarted by writing into the T1C1 register with  
T1RM = 1.  
Timer 1 can also be used as a watchdog timer to prevent a system from stalling. The  
watchdog timer is a 3-bit counter that is supplied by a separate output of Timer 1. It gen-  
erates a system reset when the 3-bit counter overflows. To avoid this, the 3-bit counter  
must be reset before it overflows. The application software has to accomplish this by  
reading the CWD register.  
After power-on reset the watchdog must be activated by software in the $RESET initial-  
ization routine. There are two watchdog modes, in one mode the watchdog can be  
switched on and off by software, in the other mode the watchdog is active and locked.  
This mode can only be stopped by carrying out a system reset.  
The watchdog timer operation mode and the time interval for the watchdog reset can be  
programmed via the watchdog control register (WDC).

The three bits T1C[2:0] select the divider for timer 1. The resulting time interval depends  
on this divider and the timer 1 input clock source. The timer input can be supplied by the  
system clock, the 32 kHz oscillator or via clock management. If clock management gen-  
erates the SUBCL, the selected input clock from the RC oscillator, 4 MHz oscillator or an  
external clock is divided by 16.

Timer 2  
This is an 8-bit or 12-bit Timer used for  
Interrupt, square-wave, pulse and duty cycle generation  
Baud-rate generation for the internal shift register  
Manchester and Bi-phase modulation together with the SSI  
Carrier frequency generation and modulation together with the SSI  
Timer 2 can be used as an interval timer for interrupt generation, as a signal generator  
or as a baud-rate generator and modulator for the serial interface. It consists of a 4-bit  
and an 8-bit up counter stage which both have compare registers. The 4-bit counter  
stages of Timer 2 are cascadable as a 12-bit timer or as 8-bit timer with a 4-bit pres-  
caler. The timer can also be configured as an 8-bit timer and a separate 4-bit prescaler.  
Timer 2 input can be supplied via the system clock, the external input clock (T2I), the  
Timer 1 output clock, the Timer 3 output clock or the shift clock of the serial interface.  
The external input clock T2I is not synchronized with SYSCL. Therefore, it is possible to  
use Timer 2 with a higher clock speed than SYSCL. Furthermore, with that input clock  
Timer 2 operates in the power-down mode SLEEP (CPU core -> sleep and OSC-Stop ->  
yes) as well as in POWER-DOWN (CPU core -> sleep and OSC-Stop -> no). All other  
clock sources supply no clock signal in SLEEP if NSTOP = 0. The 4-bit counter stages  
of Timer 2 have an additional clock output (POUT). Its output has a modulator stage that  
allows the generation of pulses as well as the generation and modulation of carrier fre-  
quencies. Timer 2 output can modulate with the shift register data output to generate  
Bi-phase- or Manchester-code.  
If the serial interface is used to modulate a bit-stream, the 4-bit stage of Timer 2 has a  
special task. The shift register can only handle bit-stream lengths divisible by 8. For  
other lengths, the 4-bit counter stage can be used to stop the modulator after the right  
bit-count is shifted out.  
If the timer is used for carrier frequency modulation, the 4-bit stage works together with  
an additional 2-bit duty cycle generator like a 6-bit prescaler to a generate carrier fre-  
quency and duty cycle. The 8-bit counter is used to enable and disable the modulator  
output for a programmable count of pulses.  
For programming the time interval, the timer has a 4-bit and an 8-bit compare register.  
For programming the timer function, it has four modes and control registers. The com-  
parator output of stage 2 is controlled by a special compare mode register (T2CM). This  
register contains mask bits for the actions (counter reset, output toggle, timer interrupt)  
which can be triggered by a compare match event or the counter overflow. This archi-  
tecture enables the timer to function in various modes.  
Timer 2 has a 4-bit compare register (T2CO1) and an 8-bit compare register (T2CO2).  
Both these compare registers are cascadable as a 12-bit compare register, or 8-bit com-  
pare register and 4-bit compare register.

Mode 1: 12-bit Compare Counter  
The 4-bit stage and the 8-bit stage work together as a 12-bit compare counter. A com-  
pare match signal of the 4-bit and the 8-bit stage generates the signal for the counter  
reset, toggle flip-flop or interrupt. The compare action is programmable via the compare  
mode register (T2CM). The 4-bit counter overflow (OVF1) supplies the clock output  
(POUT) with clocks. The duty cycle generator (DCG) has to be bypassed in this mode.

Mode 2: 8-bit Compare Counter with 4-bit Programmable Prescaler  
The 4-bit stage is used as a programmable prescaler for the 8-bit counter stage. In this  
mode, a duty cycle stage is also available. This stage can be used as an additional 2-bit  
prescaler or for generating duty cycles of 25%, 33% and 50%. The 4-bit compare output  
(CM1) supplies the clock output (POUT) with clocks.

Mode 3/4: 8-bit Compare Counter and 4-bit Programmable Prescaler  
In these modes the 4-bit and the 8-bit counter stages work independently as a 4-bit  
prescaler and an 8-bit timer with an 2-bit prescaler or as a duty cycle generator. Only in  
mode 3 and mode 4, can the 8-bit counter be supplied via the external clock input (T2I)  
which is selected via the P4CR register. The 4-bit prescaler is started by activating  
mode 3 and stopped and reset in mode 4. Changing mode 3 and 4 has no effect for the  
8-bit timer stage. The 4-bit stage can be used as a prescaler for Timer 3, the SSI or to  
generate the stop signal for modulator 2 and modulator 3.

Timer 2 Output Modes  
The signal at the timer output is generated via modulator 2. In the toggle mode, the com-  
pare match event toggles the output T2O. For high resolution duty cycle modulation 8  
bits or 12 bits can be used to toggle the output. In the duty cycle burst modulator modes  
the DCG output is connected to T2O and switched on and off either by the toggle flip  
flop output or the serial data line of the SSI. Modulator 2 also has 2 modes to output the  
content of the serial interface as Bi-phase- or Manchester-code.  
The modulator output stage can be configured by the output control bits in the T2M2  
register. The modulator is started with the start of the shift register (SIR = 0) and  
stopped either by carrying out a shift register stop (SIR = 1) or compare match event of  
stage 1 (CM1) of Timer 2. For this task, Timer 2 mode 3 must be used and the prescaler  
has to be supplied with the internal shift clock (SCL).

Timer 2 Output Mode 7  
In this mode the timer overflow defines the period and the compare register defines the  
duty cycle. During one period only the first compare match occurrence is used to toggle  
the timer output flip-flop, until the overflow all further compare match are ignored. This  
avoids the situation where changing the compare register causes the occurrence of sev-  
eral compare matches during one period. The resolution at the pulse-width modulation  
Timer 2 mode 1 is 12-bit and all other Timer 2 modes are 8-bit.

Timer 2 Registers  
Timer 2 has 6 control registers to configure the timer mode, the time interval, the input  
clock and its output function. All registers are indirectly addressed using extended  
addressing as described in the section “Addressing Peripherals”. The alternate func-  
tions of the Ports BP41 or BP42 must be selected with the Port 4 control register P4CR  
if one of the Timer 2 modes require an input at T2I/BP41 or an output at T2O/BP42.

Timer 2 Compare and Compare Timer 2 has two separate compare registers, T2CO1 for the 4-bit stage and T2CO2 for  
Mode Registers  
the 8-bit stage of Timer 2. The timer compares the contents of the compare register cur-  
rent counter value, and if it matches, it generates an output signal. Dependent on the  
timer mode, this signal is used to generate a timer interrupt, to toggle the output flip-flop  
as an SSI clock or as a clock for the next counter stage.  
In the 12-bit timer mode, T2CO1 contains bits 0 to 3 and T2CO2 bits 4 to 11 of the 12-bit  
compare value. In all other modes, the two compare registers work independently as a  
4- and 8-bit compare register.  
When assigned to the compare register a compare event will be suppressed.

Timer 3 consists of an 8-bit up-counter with two compare registers and one capture reg-  
ister. The timer can be used as an event counter, a timer and a signal generator. Its  
output can be programmed as modulator and demodulator for the serial interface. The  
two compare registers enable various modes of signal generation, modulation and  
demodulation. The counter can be driven by internal and external clock sources. For  
external clock sources, it has a programmable edge-sensitive input which can be used  
as a counter input, a capture signal input or a trigger input. This timer input is synchro-  
nized with SYSCL. Therefore, in the power-down mode SLEEP (CPU core -> sleep and  
OSC-Stop -> yes), this timer input is stopped too. The counter is readable via its capture  
register while it is running. In capture mode, the counter value can be captured by a pro-  
grammable capture event from the Timer 3 input or Timer 2 output.

4593B–4BMCU–03/04  
ATAR092-C/ATAR892-C  
A special feature of this timer is the trigger- and single-action mode. In trigger mode, the  
counter starts counting when triggered by the external signal at its input. In single-action  
mode, the counter counts only one time up to the programmed compare match event.  
These modes are very useful for modulation, demodulation, signal generation, signal  
measurement and phase control. For phase control, the timer input is protected against  
negative voltages and has zero-cross detection capability.  
Timer 3 has a modulator output stage and input functions for demodulation. As a modu-  
lator it works together with Timer 2 or the serial interface. When the shift register is used  
for modulation the data shifted out of the register is encoded bitwise. In all demodulation  
modes, the decoded data bits are shifted automatically into the shift register.  
Timer/Counter Modes  
Timer 3 has 6 timer modes and 6 modulator/demodulator modes. The mode is set via  
the Timer 3 Mode Register T3M.  
In all these modes, the compare register and the compare-mode register belonging to it  
define the counter value for a compare match and the action of a compare match. A  
match of the current counter value with the content of one compare register triggers a  
counter reset, a Timer 3 interrupt or the toggling of the output flip-flop. The compare  
mode registers T3M1 and T3M2 contain the mask bits for enabling or disabling these  
actions.  
The counter can also be enabled to execute single actions with one or both compare  
registers. If this mode is set the corresponding compare match event is generated only  
once after the counter start.  
Most of the timer modes use their compare registers alternately. After the start has been  
activated, the first comparison is carried out via the compare register 1, the second is  
carried out via the compare register 2, the third is carried out again via the compare reg-  
ister 1 and so on. This makes it easy to generate signals with constant periods and  
variable duty cycle or to generate signals with variable pulse and space widths.  
If single-action mode is set for one compare register, the comparison is always carried  
out after the first cycle via the other compare register.  
The counter can be started and stopped via the control register T3C. This register also  
controls the initial level of the output before a start. T3C contains the interrupt mask for a  
T3I input interrupt.  
Via the Timer 3 clock-select register, the internal or external clock source can be  
selected. This register also selects the active edge of the external input. An edge at the  
external input T3I can also generate an interrupt if the T3EIM-bit is set and the Timer 3  
is stopped (T3R = 0) in the T3C register.

The status of the timer as well as the occurrence of a compare match or an edge detect  
of the input signal is indicated by the status register T2ST. This allows identification of  
the interrupt source because all these events share only one timer interrupt.  
Timer 3 compares data values  
Timer 3 has two 8-bit compare registers (T3CO1, T3CO2). The compare data value can  
be ‘m’ for each of the Timer 3 compare registers.  
The compare data value for the compare registers is:  
m = x +1  
0 x 255  
Timer 3 – Mode 1: Timer/Counter  
The selected clock from an internal or external source increments the 8-bit counter. In  
this mode, the timer can be used as event counter for external clocks at T3I or as a timer  
for generating interrupts and pulses at T3O. The counter value can be read by the soft-  
ware via the capture register.

The counter is driven by an internal clock source. After starting with T3R, the first edge  
from the external input T3I starts the counter. The following edges at T3I load the cur-  
rent counter value into the capture register, resets the counter and restarts it. The edge  
can be selected by the programmable edge decoder of the timer input stage. If sin-  
gle-action mode is activated for one or both compare registers the trigger signal restarts  
the single action.

capture register. If single-action mode is activated for one both compare registers, the  
trigger signal restarts the single actions. This mode can be used for frequency measure-  
ments or as an event counter with a time gate (see combination mode 10).

Internal Output (SO)  
Timer 3 counter is driven by an internal or external clock source. Its compare- and com-

Timer 3 output. The SSI should be supplied with the toggle signal of Timer 2 (see com-  
bination mode 12).

Timer 3 – Mode 8: FSK Modulation with Shift Register Data (SO)  
The two compare registers are used for generating two different time intervals. The SSI  
internal data output (SO) selects which compare register is used for the output fre-  
quency generation. A ’0’ level at the SSI data output enables the compare register 1. A  
’1’ level enables compare register 2. The compare- and compare mode registers must  
be programmed to generate the two frequencies via the output toggle flip-flop. The SSI  
can be supplied with the toggle signal of Timer 2. Timer 3 counter is driven by an inter-  
nal or external clock source. Timer 2 counter is driven by counter 3 (TOG3) (see also  
combination mode 13).

Timer 3 – Mode 9: Pulse-width Modulation with the Shift Register  
The two compare registers are used for generating two different time intervals. The SSI

generation. In this mode both compare- and compare mode registers must be pro-  
grammed for generating the two pulse-widths. It is also useful to enable the single-  
action mode for extreme duty cycles. Timer 2 is used as a baud rate generator and for  
the trigger restart of Timer 3. The SSI must be supplied with a toggle signal of Timer 2.  
The counter is driven by an internal or external clock source (see combination mode 7).

Timer 3 – Mode 10: Manchester Demodulation/Pulse-width Demodulation  
For Manchester demodulation, the edge detection stage must be programmed to detect  
each edge at the input. These edges are evaluated by the demodulator stage. The timer  
stage is used to generate the shift clock for the SSI. The compare register 1 match  
event defines the correct moment for shifting the state from input T3I as the decoded bit  
into shift register – after that the demodulator waits for the next edge to synchronize the  
timer by a reset for the next bit. Compare register 2 can also be used to detect a time-  
out error and handle it with an interrupt routine (also see combination mode 8).

In the Bi-phase demodulation mode, the timer operates like in Manchester demodulation  
mode. The difference is that the bits are decoded via a toggle flip-flop. This flip-flop sam-  
ples the edge in the middle of the bit-frame and the compare register 1 match event  
shifts the toggle flip-flop output into the shift register (see also combined mode 9).

Timer 3 Modulator for Carrier  
Frequency Burst Modulation  
If the output stage operates as a pulse-width modulator for the shift register the output  
can be stopped with stage 1 of Timer 2. For this task, the timer mode 3 must be used  
and the prescaler must be supplied by the internal shift clock of the shift register.  
The modulator can be started with the start of the shift register (SIR = 0) and stopped  
either by a shift register stop (SIR = 1) or compare match event of stage 1 of Timer 2.  
For this task, Timer 2 must be used in mode 3 and the prescaler stage must be supplied

Timer 3 Compare- and Compare Timer 3 has two separate compare registers T3CO1 and T3CO2 for the 8-bit stage of  
Mode Register  
Timer 3. The timer compares the content of the compare register with the current  
counter value. If both match, it generates a signal. This signal can be used for the  
counter reset, to generate a timer interrupt, for toggling the output flip-flop, as SSI clock  
or as clock for the next counter stage. For each compare register, a compare-mode reg-  
ister exists. These registers contain mask bits to enable or disable the generation of an  
interrupt, a counter reset, or an output toggling with the occurrence of a compare match  
of the corresponding compare register. The mask bits for activating the single-action  
mode can also be located in the compare mode registers. When assigned to the com-  
pare register a compare event will be suppressed.

SSI Peripheral Configuration  
The synchronous serial interface (SSI) can be used either for serial communication with  
external devices such as EEPROMs, shift registers, display drivers, other microcontrol-  
lers, or as a means for generating and capturing on-chip serial streams of data. External  
data communication takes place via Port 4 (BP4),a multi-functional port which can be  
software configured by writing the appropriate control word into the P4CR register. The  
SSI can be configured in any of the following ways:  
1. 2-wire external interface for bi-directional data communication with one data ter-  
minal and one shift clock. The SSI uses Port BP43 as a bi-directional serial data  
line (SD) and BP40 as a shift clock line (SC).  
2. 3-wire external interface for simultaneous input and output of serial data, with a  
serial input data terminal (SI), a serial output data terminal (SO) and a shift clock  
(SC). The SSI uses BP40 as a shift clock (SC), while the serial data input (SI) is  
applied to BP43 (configured in P4CR as input). Serial output data (SO) in this  
case is passed through to BP42 (configured in P4CR to T2O) via the Timer 2  
output stage (T2M2 configured in mode 6).  
3. Timer/SSI combined modes – the SSI used together with Timer 2 or Timer 3 is  
capable of performing a variety of data modulation and demodulation functions  
(see Timer Section). The modulating data is converted by the SSI into a continu-  
ous serial stream of data which is in turn modulated in one of the timer functional  
blocks. Serial demodulated data can be serially captured in the SSI and read by  
the controller. In the Timer 3 modes 10 and 11 (demodulation modes) the SSI  
can only be used as demodulator.  
4. Multi-chip link (MCL) – the SSI can also be used as an interchip data interface for  
use in single package multi-chip modules or hybrids. For such applications, the  
SSI is provided with two dedicated pads (MCL_SD and MCL_SC) which act as a  
two-wire chip-to-chip link. The MCL can be activated by the MCL control bit.  
Should these MCL pads be used by the SSI, the standard SD and SC pins are  
not required and the corresponding Port 4 ports are available as conventional  
data ports.

General SSI Operation  
The SSI is comprised essentially of an 8-bit shift register with two associated 8-bit buff-  
ers. The receive buffer (SRB) for capturing the incoming serial data and a transmit  
buffer (STB) for intermediate storage of data to be serially output. Both buffers are  
directly accessible by software. Transferring the parallel buffer data into and out of the  
shift register is controlled automatically by the SSI control, so that both single byte trans-  
fers or continuous bit streams can be supported.  
The SSI can generate the shift clock (SC) either from one of several on-chip clock  
sources or accept an external clock. The external shift clock is output on, or applied to  
the Port BP40. Selection of an external clock source is performed by the Serial Clock  
Direction control bit (SCD). In combinational modes, the required clock is selected by  
the corresponding timer mode.  
The SSI can operate in three data transfer modes — synchronous 8-bit shift mode, a  
9-bit Multi-Chip Link mode (MCL), containing 8-bit data and 1-bit acknowledge, and a  
corresponding 8-bit MCL mode without acknowledge. In both MCL modes the data  
transmission begins after a valid start condition and ends with a valid stop condition.  
External SSI clocking is not supported in these modes. The SSI should thus generate  
and have full control over the shift clock so that it can always be regarded as an  
MCL-bus master device.  
All directional control of the external data port used by the SSI is handled automatically  
and is dependent on the transmission direction set by the Serial Data Direction (SDD)  
control bit. This control bit defines whether the SSI is currently operating in transmit (TX)  
mode or receive (RX) mode.  
Serial data is organized in 8-bit telegrams which are shifted with the most significant bit  
first. In the 9-bit MCL mode, an additional acknowledge bit is appended to the end of the  
telegram for handshaking purposes (see MCL protocol).  
At the beginning of every telegram, the SSI control loads the transmit buffer into the shift  
register and proceeds immediately to shift data serially out. At the same time, incoming  
data is shifted into the shift register input. This incoming data is automatically loaded  
into the receive buffer when the complete telegram has been received. Thus, data can  
be simultaneously received and transmitted if required.  
Before data can be transferred, the SSI must first be activated. This is performed by  
means of the SSI reset control (SIR) bit. All further operation then depends on the data  
directional mode (TX/RX) and the present status of the SSI buffer registers shown by  
the Serial Interface Ready Status Flag (SRDY). This SRDY flag indicates the  
(empty/full) status of either the transmit buffer (in TX mode), or the receive buffer (in RX  
mode). The control logic ensures that data shifting is temporarily halted at any time, if  
the appropriate receive/transmit buffer is not ready (SRDY = 0). The SRDY status will  
then automatically be set back to 1 and data shifting resumed as soon as the application  
software loads the new data into the transmit register (in TX mode) or frees the shift reg-  
ister by reading it into the receive buffer (in RX mode).  
A further activity status (ACT) bit indicates the present status of the serial communica-  
tion. The ACT bit remains high for the duration of the serial telegram or if MCL stop or  
start conditions are currently being generated. Both the current SRDY and ACT status  
can be read in the SSI status register. To deactivate the SSI, the SIR bit must be set to  
high.

In 8-bit synchronous mode, the SSI can operate as either a 2- or 3-wire interface (see  
SSI peripheral configuration). The serial data (SD) is received or transmitted in NRZ for-  
mat, synchronized to either the rising or falling edge of the shift clock (SC). The choice  
of clock edge is defined by the Serial Mode Control bits (SM0,SM1). It should be noted  
that the transmission edge refers to the SC clock edge with which the SD changes. To  
avoid clock skew problems, the incoming serial input data is shifted in with the opposite  
edge.  
When used together with one of the timer modulator or demodulator stages, the SSI  
must be set in the 8-bit synchronous mode 1.  
In RX mode, as soon as the SSI is activated (SIR = 0), 8 shift clocks are generated and  
the incoming serial data is shifted into the shift register. This first telegram is automati-  
cally transferred into the receive buffer and the SRDY is set to 0 indicating that the  
receive buffer contains valid data. At the same time an interrupt (if enabled) is gener-  
ated. The SSI then continues shifting the following 8-bit telegram. If, during this time the  
first telegram has been read by the controller, the second telegram will also be trans-  
ferred in the same way into the receive buffer and the SSI will continue clocking in the  
next telegram. Should, however, the first telegram not have been read (SRDY = 1), then  
the SSI will stop, temporarily holding the second telegram in the shift register until a cer-  
tain point of time when the controller is able to service the receive buffer. In this way no  
data is lost or overwritten.  
Deactivating the SSI (SIR = 1) in mid-telegram will immediately stop the shift clock and  
latch the present contents of the shift register into the receive buffer. This can be used  
for clocking in a data telegram less than 8 bits in length. Care should be taken to read  
out the final complete 8-bit data telegram of a multiple word message before deactivat-  
ing the SSI (SIR = 1) and terminating the reception. After termination, the shift register  
contents will overwrite the receive buffer.

9-bit Shift Mode  
In the 9-bit shift mode, the SSI is able to handle the MCL protocol (described below). It  
always operates as an MCL master device, i.e., SC is always generated and output by  
the SSI. Both the MCL start and stop conditions are automatically generated whenever  
the SSI is activated or deactivated by the SIR-bit. In accordance with the MCL protocol,  
the output data is always changed in the clock low phase and shifted in on the high  
phase.  
Before activating the SSI (SIR = 0) and commencing an MCL dialog, the appropriate  
data direction for the first word must be set using the SDD control bit. The state of this  
bit controls the direction of the data port (BP43 or MCL_SD). Once started, the 8 data  
bits are, depending on the selected direction, either clocked into or out of the shift regis-  
ter. During the 9th clock period, the port direction is automatically switched over so that  
the corresponding acknowledge bit can be shifted out or read in. In transmit mode, the  
acknowledge bit received from the device is captured in the SSI Status Register (TACK)  
where it can be read by the controller. In receive mode, the state of the acknowledge bit  
to be returned to the device is predetermined by the SSI Status Register (RACK).  
Changing the direction mode (TX/RX) should not be performed during the transfer of an  
MCL telegram. One should wait until the end of the telegram which can be detected  
using the SSI interrupt (IFN = 1) or by interrogating the ACT status.  
Once started, a 9-bit telegram will always run to completion and will not be prematurely  
terminated by the SIR bit. So, if the SIR-bit is set to 1 within the telegram, the SSI will  
complete the current transfer and terminate the dialog with an MCL stop condition.

8-bit Pseudo MCL Mode  
MCL Bus Protocol  
In this mode, the SSI exhibits all the typical MCL operational features except for the  
acknowledge-bit which is never expected or transmitted.  
The MCL protocol constitutes a simple 2-wire bi-directional communication highway via  
which devices can communicate control and data information. Although the MCL proto-  
col can support multi-master bus configurations, the SSI in MCL mode is intended for  
use purely as a master controller on a single master bus system. So all reference to  
multiple bus control and bus contention will be omitted at this point.  
All data is packaged into 8-bit telegrams plus a trailing handshaking or acknowledge-bit.  
Normally the communication channel is opened with a so-called start condition, which  
initializes all devices connected to the bus. This is then followed by a data telegram,  
transmitted by the master controller device. This telegram usually contains an 8-bit  
address code to activate a single slave device connected onto the MCL bus. Each slave  
receives this address and compares it with its own unique address. The addressed  
slave device, if ready to receive data, will respond by pulling the SD line low during the  
9th clock pulse. This represents a so-called MCL acknowledge. The controller detecting  
this affirmative acknowledge then opens a connection to the required slave. Data can  
then be passed back and forth by the master controller, each 8-bit telegram being  
acknowledged by the respective recipient. The communication is finally closed by the  
master device when the slave device is put back into standby by applying a stop condi-  
tion onto the bus.

SSI Interrupt  
The SSI interrupt INT3 can be generated either by an SSI buffer register status (i.e.,  
transmit buffer empty or receive buffer full), the end of SSI data telegram or on the fall-  
ing edge of the SC/SD pins on Port 4 (see P4CR). SSI interrupt selection is performed  
by the Interrupt FunctioN control bit (IFN). The SSI interrupt is usually used to synchro-  
nize the software control of the SSI and inform the controller of the present SSI status.  
The Port 4 interrupts can be used together with the SSI or, if the SSI itself is not  
required, as additional external interrupt sources. In either case this interrupt is capable  
of waking the controller out of sleep mode.  
To enable and select the SSI relevant interrupts use the SSI Interrupt Mask (SIM) and  
the Interrupt Function (IFN) while Port 4 interrupts are enabled by setting appropriate  
control bits in the P4CR register.  
63  
4593B–4BMCU–03/04  
Modulation and Demodulation  
If the shift register is used together with Timer 2 or Timer 3 for modulation or demodula-  
tion purposes, the 8-bit synchronous mode must be used. In this case, the unused  
Port 4 pins can be used as conventional bi-directional ports.  
The modulation and demodulation stages, if enabled, operate as soon as the SSI is acti-  
vated (SIR = 0) and cease when deactivated (SIR = 1).  
Due to the byte-orientated data control, the SSI (when running normally) generates  
serial bit streams which are submultiples of 8 bits. An SSI Output Masking (OMSK) func-  
tion permits, however, the generation of bit streams of any length. The OMSK signal is  
derived indirectly from the 4-bit prescaler of Timer 2 and masks out a programmable  
number of unrequired trailing data bits during the shifting out of the final data word in the  
bit stream. The number of non-masked data bits are defined by the value pre-pro-  
grammed in the prescaler compare register. To use output masking, the Modulator Stop  
Mode bit (MSM) must be set to 0 before programming the final data word into the SSI  
transmit buffer. This in turn, enables shift clocks to the prescaler when this final word is  
shifted out. On reaching the compare value, the prescaler triggers the OMSK signal and  
all following data bits are blanked.  
Internal 2-wire Multi-chip Link  
Two additional on-chip pads (MCL_SC and MCL_SD) for the SC and the SD line can be  
used as chip-to-chip links for multi-chip applications. These pads can be activated by  
setting the MCL-bit in the SISC register.

Combination Modes  
The UTCM consists of two timers (Timer 2 and Timer 3) and a serial interface. There is  
a multitude of modes in which the timers and serial interface can work together.  
The 8-bit wide serial interface operates as a shift register for modulation and demodula-  
tion. The modulator and demodulator units work together with the timers and shift the  
data bits into or out of the shift register.

Combination Mode 6: FSK Modulation  
SSI mode 1: 8-bit shift register internal data output (SO) to Timer 3  
Timer 3 mode 8: FSK modulation with shift register data (SO)  
The two compare registers are used to generate two varied time intervals. The SSI data  
output selects which compare register is used for the output frequency generation. A 0  
level at the SSI data output enables the compare register 1 and a 1 level enables the  
compare register 2. The compare and compare mode registers must be programmed to  
generate the two frequencies via the output toggle flip flop. The SSI can be supplied with  
the toggle signal of Timer 2 or any other clock source. Timer 3 counter is driven by an  
internal or external clock source.

The two compare registers are used to generate two varied time intervals. The SSI data  
output selects which compare register is used for the output pulse generation. In this  
mode, both compare and compare mode registers must be programmed to generate the  
two pulse-widths. It is also useful to enable the single-action mode for extreme duty  
cycles. Timer 2 is used as baud rate generator and for the triggered restart of Timer 3.  
The SSI must be supplied with the toggle signal of Timer 2. The counter is driven by an  
internal or external clock source.

SSI mode 1:

Timer 3 mode 10: Manchester demodulation/pulse-width demodulation with Timer 3  
For Manchester demodulation, the edge detection stage must be programmed to detect  
each edge at the input. These edges are evaluated by the demodulator stage. The timer  
stage is used to generate the shift clock for the SSI. A compare register 1 match event  
defines the correct moment for shifting the state from the input T3I as the decoded bit  
into shift register. After that, the demodulator waits for the next edge to synchronize the  
timer by a reset for the next bit. The compare register 2 can be used to detect a time  
error and handle it with an interrupt routine.  
Before activating the demodulator mode the timer and the demodulator stage must be  
synchronized with the bit-stream. The Manchester-code timing consists of parts with the  
half bit-length and the complete bit-length. A synchronization routine must start the  
demodulator after an interval with the complete bit-length.  
The counter can be driven by any internal clock source. The output T3O can be used by  
Timer 2 in this mode. The Manchester decoder can also be used for pulse-width demod-  
ulation. The input must be programmed to detect the positive edge. The demodulator  
and timer must be synchronized with the leading edge of the pulse. After that a counter  
match with the compare register 1 shifts the state at the input T3I into the shift register.  
The next positive edge at the input restarts the timer.

Timer 3 mode 11: Bi-phase demodulation with Timer 3  
In the Bi-phase demodulation mode the timer works like in the Manchester demodula-  
tion mode. The difference is that the bits are decoded with the toggle flip-flop. This  
flip-flop samples the edge in the middle of the bit-frame and the compare register 1  
match event shifts the toggle flip-flop output into the shift register. Before activating the  
demodulation the timer and the demodulation stage must be synchronized with the bit-  
stream. The Bi-phase code timing consists of parts with the half bit-length and the com-  
plete bit-length. The synchronization routine must start the demodulator after an interval  
with the complete bit-length.  
The counter can be driven by any internal clock source and the output T3O can be used  
by Timer 2 in this mode.

A 0 level at the SSI data output enables the compare register 1 and a 1 level enables  
the compare register 2. The compare- and compare mode registers must be pro-

ATAR892-C  
The ATAR892-C is a multi-chip device which offers a combination of a MARC4-based  
microcontroller and a serial E2PROM data memory in a single package.  
The ATAR092-C is used as a mircocontroller and the U5005M is used as serial  
E2PROM. Two internal lines can be used as chip-to-chip link in a single package. The  
maximum internal data communication frequency between the ATAR092-C and the  
U505M over the chip link (MCL_SC and MCL_SD) is fSC_MCL = 500 kHz.  
The microcontroller and the EEPROM portions of this multi-chip device are equivalent to  
their respective individual component chips, except for the electrical specification.  
Internal 2-wire Multi-chip Two additional on-chip pads (MCL_SC and MCL_SD) for the SC and the SD lines can  
be used as chip-to-chip links for multi-chip applications. These pads can be activated by  
setting the MCL-bit in the SISC register.

U505M EEPROM  
The U505M is a 512-bit EEPROM internally organized as 32 x 16 bits. The program-  
ming voltage as well as the write-cycle timing is generated on-chip. The U505M features  
a serial interface allowing operation on a simple two-wire bus with an MCL protocol. Its  
low power consumption makes it well suited for battery applications.

Serial Interface  
The U505M has a two-wire serial interface to the microcontroller for read and write  
accesses to the EEPROM. The U505M is considered to be a slave in all these applica-  
tions. That means, the controller has to be the master that initiates the data transfer and  
provides the clock for transmit and receive operations.  
The serial interface is controlled by the ATAR892-C microcontroller which generates the  
serial clock and controls the access via the SCL-line and SDA-line. SCL is used to clock  
the data into and out of the device. SDA is a bi-directional line that is used to transfer  
data into and out of the device. The following protocol is used for data transfers.  
Serial Protocol  
Data states on the SDA-line change only while SCL is low.  
Changes on the SDA line while SCL is high are interpreted as START or STOP  
conditions.  
A START condition is defined as a high to low transition on the SDA-line while the  
SCL-line is high.  
A STOP condition is defined as a low to high transition on the SDA-line while the  
SCL-line is high.  
Each data transfer must be initialized with a START condition and terminated with a  
STOP condition. The START condition wakes the device from standby mode and the  
STOP condition returns the device to standby mode.  
A receiving device generates an acknowledge (A) after the reception of each byte.  
This requires an additional clock pulse, generated by the master. If the reception  
was successful the receiving master or slave device pulls down the SDA-line during  
that clock cycle. If an acknowledge is not detected (N) by the interface in transmit  
mode, it will terminate further data transmissions and go into receive mode. A  
master device must finish its read operation by a non-acknowledge and then send a  
stop condition to bring the device into a known state.

Before the START condition and after the STOP condition the device is in standby  
mode and the SDA line is switched as input with pull-up resistor.  
The control byte that follows the START condition determines the following  
operation. It consists of the 5-bit row address, 2 mode control bits and the READ/  
NWRITE bit that is used to control the direction of the following transfer. A 0 defines  
a write access and a 1 a read access.

EEPROM  
The EEPROM has a size of 512 bits and is organized as 32 x 16-bit matrix. To read and  
write data to and from the EEPROM the serial interface must be used. The interface  
supports one and two byte write accesses and one to n-byte read accesses to the  
EEPROM.  
EEPROM – Operating Modes  
The operating modes of the EEPROM are defined via the control byte. The control byte  
contains the row address, the mode control bits and the read/not-write bit that is used to  
control the direction of the following transfer. A 0 defines a write access and a 1 a read  
access. The five address bits select one of the 32 rows of the EEPROM memory to be  
accessed. For all accesses the complete 16-bit word of the selected row is loaded into a  
buffer. The buffer must be read or overwritten via the serial interface. The two mode  
control bits C0 and C1 define in which order the accesses to the buffer are performed:  
High byte – low byte or low byte – high byte. The EEPROM also supports autoincrement  
and autodecrement read operations. After sending the start address with the corre-  
sponding mode, consecutive memory cells can be read row by row without transmission  
of the row addresses.  
Two special control bytes enable the complete initialization of EEPROM with 0 or with 1.  
Write Operations  
The EEPROM allows 8-bit and 16-bit write operations. A write access starts with the  
START condition followed by a write control byte and one or two data bytes from the  
master. It is completed via the STOP condition from the master after the acknowledge  
cycle. The programming cycle consists of an erase cycle (write ’0’) and the write cycle  
(write ’1’). Both cycles together take about 10 ms.

4593B–4BMCU–03/04  
ATAR092-C/ATAR892-C  
Acknowledge Polling  
If the EEPROM is busy with an internal write cycle, all inputs are disabled and the  
EEPROM will not acknowledge until the write cycle is finished. This can be used to  
detect the end of the write cycle. The master must perform acknowledge polling by  
sending a start condition followed by the control byte. If the device is still busy with the  
write cycle, it will not return an acknowledge and the master has to generate a stop con-  
dition or perform further acknowledge polling sequences. If the cycle is complete, it  
returns an acknowledge and the master can proceed with the next read or write cycle.

Read Operations  
The EEPROM allows byte, word and current address read operations. The read opera-  
tions are initiated in the same way as write operations. Every read access is initiated by  
sending the START condition followed by the control byte which contains the address  
and the read mode. When the device has received a read command, it returns an  
acknowledge, loads the addressed word into the read/write buffer and sends the  
selected data byte to the master. The master has to acknowledge the received byte if it  
wants to proceed with the read operation. If two bytes are read out from the buffer the  
device increments respectively, decrements the word address automatically and loads  
the buffer with the next word. The read mode bits determines if the low or high byte is  
read from the buffer first and if the word address is incremented or decremented for the  
next read access. If the memory address limit is reached, the data word address will ‘roll  
over’ and the sequential read will continue. The master can terminate the read operation  
after every byte by not responding with an acknowledge (N) and by issuing a stop  
condition.

Condition  
The EEPROM with the serial interface has its own reset circuitry. In systems with micro-  
controllers that have their own reset circuitry for power-on reset, watchdog reset or  
brown-out reset, it may be necessary to bring the U505M into a known state indepen-  
dent of its internal reset. This is performed by writing:  
Start

to the serial interface. If the U505M acknowledges this sequence it is in a defined state.  
It may be necessary to perform this sequence twice.

Absolute Maximum Ratings  
Voltages are given relative to VSS.  
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating  
only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of this  
specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.  
All inputs and outputs are protected against high electrostatic voltages or electric fields. However, precautions to minimize the build-up of  
electrostatic charges during handling are recommended. Reliability of operation is enhanced if unused inputs are connected to an appro-  
priate logic voltage level (e.g., VDD).

Emulation  
The basic function of emulation is to test and evaluate the customer's program and  
hardware in real time. This therefore enables the analysis of any timing, hardware or  
software problem. For emulation purposes, all MARC4 controllers include a special  
emulation mode. In this mode, the internal CPU core is inactive and the I/O buses are  
available via Port 0 and Port 1 to allow an external access to the on-chip peripherals.  
The MARC4 emulator uses this mode to control the peripherals of any MARC4 control-  
ler (target chip) and emulates the lost ports for the application.  
The MARC4 emulator can stop and restart a program at specified points during execu-  
tion, making it possible for the applications engineer to view the memory contents and  
those of various registers during program execution. The designer also gains the ability  
to analyze the executed instruction sequences and all the I/O activities.
