1. System Overview  
C8051F70x/71x devices are fully integrated, mixed-signal, system-on-a-chip MCUs. Highlighted features  
are listed below. Refer to Table 2.1 for specific product feature selection and part ordering numbers.  
High-speed pipelined 8051-compatible microcontroller core (up to 25 MIPS)  
In-system, full-speed, non-intrusive debug interface (on-chip)  
10-bit 500 ksps Single-ended ADC with 16-channel analog multiplexer and integrated temperature sensor  
Precision calibrated 24.5 MHz internal oscillator  
16Kb of on-chip Flash memory  
512 bytes of on-chip RAM  
SMBus/I2C, Enhanced UART, and Enhanced SPI serial interfaces implemented in hardware  
Four general-purpose 16-bit timers  
Capacitive Sense interface with 32 input channels  
Programmable Counter/Timer Array (PCA) with three capture/compare modules  
On-chip internal voltage reference  
On-chip Watchdog timer  
On-chip Power-On Reset and Supply Monitor  
On-chip Voltage Comparator  
54 general purpose I/O  
With on-chip power-on reset, V  
monitor, watchdog timer, and clock oscillator, the C8051F70x/71x  
DD  
devices are truly stand-alone, system-on-a-chip solutions. The Flash memory can be reprogrammed even  
in-circuit, providing non-volatile data storage, and also allowing field upgrades of the 8051 firmware. User  
software has complete control of all peripherals, and may individually shut down any or all peripherals for  
power savings.  
The C8051F70x/71x processors include Silicon Laboratories’ 2-Wire C2 Debug and Programming inter-  
face, which allows non-intrusive (uses no on-chip resources), full speed, in-circuit debugging using the pro-  
duction MCU installed in the final application. This debug logic supports inspection of memory, viewing and  
modification of special function registers, setting breakpoints, single stepping, and run and halt commands.  
All analog and digital peripherals are fully functional while debugging using C2. The two C2 interface pins  
can be shared with user functions, allowing in-system debugging without occupying package pins.  
Each device is specified for 1.8–3.6 V operation over the industrial temperature range (–45 to +85 °C). An  
internal LDO is used to supply the processor core voltage at 1.8 V. The Port I/O and RST pins are tolerant  
of input signals up to 2 V above the V supply. See Table 2.1 for ordering information. Block diagrams of  
DD  
the devices in the C8051F70x/71x family are shown in Figure 1.1.

8. 10-Bit ADC (ADC0, C8051F700/2/4/6/8 and C8051F710/2/4 only)  
ADC0 on the C8051F700/2/4/6/8 and C8051F710/2/4 is a 500 ksps, 10-bit successive-approximation-reg-  
ister (SAR) ADC with integrated track-and-hold, a gain stage programmable to 1x or 0.5x, and a program-  
mable window detector. The ADC is fully configurable under software control via Special Function  
Registers. The ADC may be configured to measure various different signals using the analog multiplexer  
described in Section “8.5. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer” on page 57. The voltage reference for the ADC is  
selected as described in Section “9. Temperature Sensor (C8051F700/2/4/6/8 and C8051F710/2/4 only)”  
on page 59. The ADC0 subsystem is enabled only when the AD0EN bit in the ADC0 Control register  
(ADC0CN) is set to logic 1. The ADC0 subsystem is in low power shutdown when this bit is logic 0.

8.1. Output Code Formatting  
The ADC measures the input voltage with reference to GND. The registers ADC0H and ADC0L contain the  
high and low bytes of the output conversion code from the ADC at the completion of each conversion. Data  
can be right-justified or left-justified, depending on the setting of the AD0LJST bit. Conversion codes are  
represented as 10-bit unsigned integers. Inputs are measured from 0 to VREF x 1023/1024. Example  
codes are shown below for both right-justified and left-justified data. Unused bits in the ADC0H and ADC0L  
registers are set to 0.

8.2. 8-Bit Mode  
Setting the ADC08BE bit in register ADC0CF to 1 will put the ADC in 8-bit mode. In 8-bit mode, only the 8  
MSBs of data are converted, and the ADC0H register holds the results. The AD0LJST bit is ignored for 8-  
bit mode. 8-bit conversions take two fewer SAR clock cycles than 10-bit conversions, so the conversion is  
completed faster, and a 500 ksps sampling rate can be achieved with a slower SAR clock.  
8.3. Modes of Operation  
ADC0 has a maximum conversion speed of 500 ksps. The ADC0 conversion clock is a divided version of  
the system clock, determined by the AD0SC bits in the ADC0CF register.  
8.3.1. Starting a Conversion  
A conversion can be initiated in one of six ways, depending on the programmed states of the ADC0 Start of  
Conversion Mode bits (AD0CM20) in register ADC0CN. Conversions may be initiated by one of the fol-  
lowing:  
1. Writing a 1 to the AD0BUSY bit of register ADC0CN  
2. A Timer 0 overflow (i.e., timed continuous conversions)  
3. A Timer 2 overflow  
4. A Timer 1 overflow  
5. A rising edge on the CNVSTR input signal  
6. A Timer 3 overflow  
Writing a 1 to AD0BUSY provides software control of ADC0 whereby conversions are performed "on-  
demand". During conversion, the AD0BUSY bit is set to logic 1 and reset to logic 0 when the conversion is  
complete. The falling edge of AD0BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the ADC0 interrupt  
flag (AD0INT). When polling for ADC conversion completions, the ADC0 interrupt flag (AD0INT) should be  
used. Converted data is available in the ADC0 data registers, ADC0H:ADC0L, when bit AD0INT is logic 1.  
When Timer 2 or Timer 3 overflows are used as the conversion source, Low Byte overflows are used if  
Timer 2/3 is in 8-bit mode; High byte overflows are used if Timer 2/3 is in 16-bit mode. See Section  
“31. Timers” on page 245 for timer configuration.  
Important Note About Using CNVSTR: The CNVSTR input pin also functions as a Port I/O pin. When the  
CNVSTR input is used as the ADC0 conversion source, the associated pin should be skipped by the Digi-  
tal Crossbar. See Section “26. Port Input/Output” on page 166 for details on Port I/O configuration.

Rev. 0.2

8.3.2. Tracking Modes  
The AD0TM bit in register ADC0CN enables "delayed conversions", and will delay the actual conversion  
start by three SAR clock cycles, during which time the ADC will continue to track the input. If AD0TM is left  
at logic 0, a conversion will begin immediately, without the extra tracking time. For internal start-of-conver-  
sion sources, the ADC will track anytime it is not performing a conversion. When the CNVSTR signal is  
used to initiate conversions, ADC0 will track either when AD0TM is logic 1, or when AD0TM is logic 0 and  
CNVSTR is held low. See Figure 8.2 for track and convert timing details. Delayed conversion mode is use-  
ful when AMUX settings are frequently changed, due to the settling time requirements described in Section  
“8.3.3. Settling Time Requirements” on page 50.

8.3.3. Settling Time Requirements  
A minimum tracking time is required before each conversion to ensure that an accurate conversion is per-  
formed. This tracking time is determined by any series impedance, including the AMUX0 resistance, the  
the ADC0 sampling capacitance, and the accuracy required for the conversion. In delayed tracking mode,  
three SAR clocks are used for tracking at the start of every conversion. For many applications, these three  
SAR clocks will meet the minimum tracking time requirements.  
Figure 8.3 shows the equivalent ADC0 input circuit. The required ADC0 settling time for a given settling  
accuracy (SA) may be approximated by Equation 8.1. See Table 7.10 for ADC0 minimum settling time  
requirements as well as the mux impedance and sampling capacitor values.

8.4. Programmable Window Detector  
The ADC Programmable Window Detector continuously compares the ADC0 output registers to user-pro-  
grammed limits, and notifies the system when a desired condition is detected. This is especially effective in  
an interrupt-driven system, saving code space and CPU bandwidth while delivering faster system  
response times. The window detector interrupt flag (AD0WINT in register ADC0CN) can also be used in  
polled mode. The ADC0 Greater-Than (ADC0GTH, ADC0GTL) and Less-Than (ADC0LTH, ADC0LTL)  
registers hold the comparison values. The window detector flag can be programmed to indicate when mea-  
sured data is inside or outside of the user-programmed limits, depending on the contents of the ADC0  
Less-Than and ADC0 Greater-Than registers.

ADC0LTH:ADC0LTL = 0x0080 (128d) and ADC0GTH:ADC0GTL = 0x0040 (64d). The input voltage can  
range from 0 to VREF x (1023/1024) with respect to GND, and is represented by a 10-bit unsigned integer  
value. In the left example, an AD0WINT interrupt will be generated if the ADC0 conversion word  
(ADC0H:ADC0L) is within the range defined by ADC0GTH:ADC0GTL and ADC0LTH:ADC0LTL

9. Temperature Sensor (C8051F700/2/4/6/8 and C8051F710/2/4 only)  
An on-chip temperature sensor is included on the C8051F700/2/4/6/8 and C8051F710/2/4 which can be  
directly accessed via the ADC multiplexer in single-ended configuration. To use the ADC to measure the  
temperature sensor, the ADC mux channel should be configured to connect to the temperature sensor.  
The temperature sensor transfer function is shown in Figure 9.1. The output voltage (V  
) is the positive  
TEMP  
ADC input when the ADC multiplexer is set correctly. The TEMPE bit in register REF0CN enables/disables  
the temperature sensor, as described in SFR Definition 10.1. While disabled, the temperature sensor  
defaults to a high impedance state and any ADC measurements performed on the sensor will result in  
meaningless data. Refer to Table 7.12 for the slope and offset parameters of the temperature sensor.  
VTEMP = (Slope x TempC) + Offset  
TempC = (VTEMP - Offset) / Slope

9.1. Calibration  
The uncalibrated temperature sensor output is extremely linear and suitable for relative temperature mea-  
surements (see Table 5.1 for linearity specifications). For absolute temperature measurements, offset  
and/or gain calibration is recommended. Typically a 1-point (offset) calibration includes the following steps:  
1. Control/measure the ambient temperature (this temperature must be known).  
2. Power the device, and delay for a few seconds to allow for self-heating.  
3. Perform an ADC conversion with the temperature sensor selected as the ADC’s input.  
4. Calculate the offset characteristics, and store this value in non-volatile memory for use with subsequent  
temperature sensor measurements.  
Figure 5.3 shows the typical temperature sensor error assuming a 1-point calibration at 0 °C.

10. Voltage and Ground Reference Options  
The voltage reference MUX is configurable to use an externally connected voltage reference, the on-chip  
voltage reference, or one of two power supply voltages (see Figure 10.1). The ground reference MUX  
allows the ground reference for ADC0 to be selected between the ground pin (GND) or a port pin dedi-  
cated to analog ground (P0.1/AGND).  
The voltage and ground reference options are configured using the REF0CN SFR described on page 63.  
Electrical specifications are can be found in the Electrical Specifications Chapter.  
Important Note About the V  
and AGND Inputs: Port pins are used as the external V  
and AGND  
REF  
REF  
inputs. When using an external voltage reference, P0.0/VREF should be configured as an analog input and  
skipped by the Digital Crossbar. When using AGND as the ground reference to ADC0, P0.1/AGND should  
be configured as an analog input and skipped by the Digital Crossbar. Refer to Section “26. Port Input/Out-  
put” on page 166 for complete Port I/O configuration details. The external reference voltage must be within  
the range 0 V

10.1. External Voltage References  
To use an external voltage reference, REFSL[1:0] should be set to 00. Bypass capacitors should be added  
as recommended by the manufacturer of the external voltage reference.  
10.2. Internal Voltage Reference Options  
A 1.65 V high-speed reference is included on-chip. The high speed internal reference is selected by setting  
REFSL[1:0] to 11. When selected, the high speed internal reference will be automatically enabled on an  
as-needed basis by ADC0.  
For applications with a non-varying power supply voltage, using the power supply as the voltage reference  
can provide ADC0 with added dynamic range at the cost of reduced power supply noise rejection. To use  
the 1.8 to 3.6 V power supply voltage (V ) or the 1.8 V regulated digital supply voltage as the reference  
DD  
source, REFSL[1:0] should be set to 01 or 10, respectively.  
10.3. Analog Ground Reference  
To prevent ground noise generated by switching digital logic from affecting sensitive analog measure-  
ments, a separate analog ground reference option is available. When enabled, the ground reference for  
ADC0 is taken from the P0.1/AGND pin. Any external sensors sampled by ADC0 should be referenced to  
the P0.1/AGND pin. The separate analog ground reference option is enabled by setting REFGND to 1.  
Note that when using this option, P0.1/AGND must be connected to the same potential as GND.  
10.4. Temperature Sensor Enable  
The TEMPE bit in register REF0CN enables the temperature sensor. While disabled, the temperature sen-  
sor defaults to a high impedance state and any ADC0 measurements performed on the sensor result in  
meaningless data.

11. Voltage Regulator (REG0)  
C8051F70x/71x devices include an internal voltage regulator (REG0) to regulate the internal core supply  
to 1.8 V from a V  
supply of 1.8 to 3.6 V. Two power-saving modes are built into the regulator to help  
DD  
reduce current consumption in low-power applications. These modes are accessed through the REG0CN  
register (SFR Definition 11.1). Electrical characteristics for the on-chip regulator are specified in Table 7.5  
on page 43  
If an external regulator is used to power the device, the internal regulator may be put into bypass mode  
using the BYPASS bit. The internal regulator should never be placed in bypass mode unless an  
external 1.8 V regulator is used to supply V . Doing so could cause permanent damage to the  
DD  
device.  
Under default conditions, when the device enters STOP mode the internal regulator will remain on. This  
allows any enabled reset source to generate a reset for the device and bring the device out of STOP mode.  
For additional power savings, the STOPCF bit can be used to shut down the regulator and the internal  
power network of the device when the part enters STOP mode. When STOPCF is set to 1, the RST pin or  
a full power cycle of the device are the only methods of generating a reset.

12. Comparator0  
C8051F70x/71x devices include an on-chip programmable voltage comparator, Comparator0, shown in  
Figure 12.1.  
The Comparator offers programmable response time and hysteresis, an analog input multiplexer, and two  
outputs that are optionally available at the Port pins: a synchronous “latched” output (CP0), or an asyn-  
chronous “raw” output (CP0A). The asynchronous CP0A signal is available even when the system clock is  
not active. This allows the Comparator to operate and generate an output with the device in STOP mode.  
When assigned to a Port pin, the Comparator output may be configured as open drain or push-pull (see  
Section “26.4. Port I/O Initialization” on page 173). Comparator0 may also be used as a reset source (see  
Section “23.5. Comparator0 Reset” on page 153).  
The Comparator0 inputs are selected by the comparator input multiplexer, as detailed in Section  
“12.1. Comparator Multiplexer” on page 71.

Figure 12.1. Comparator0 Functional Block Diagram  
The Comparator output can be polled in software, used as an interrupt source, and/or routed to a Port pin.  
When routed to a Port pin, the Comparator output is available asynchronous or synchronous to the system  
clock; the asynchronous output is available even in STOP mode (with no system clock active). When dis-  
abled, the Comparator output (if assigned to a Port I/O pin via the Crossbar) defaults to the logic low state,  
and the power supply to the comparator is turned off. See Section “26.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on  
page 171 for details on configuring Comparator outputs via the digital Crossbar. Comparator inputs can be

externally driven from –0.25 V to (V ) + 0.25 V without damage or upset. The complete Comparator elec-  
DD  
trical specifications are given in Section “7. Electrical Characteristics” on page 40.  
The Comparator response time may be configured in software via the CPT0MD register (see SFR Defini-  
tion 12.2). Selecting a longer response time reduces the Comparator supply current.

Figure 12.2. Comparator Hysteresis Plot  
The Comparator hysteresis is software-programmable via its Comparator Control register CPT0CN. The  
user can program both the amount of hysteresis voltage (referred to the input voltage) and the positive and  
negative-going symmetry of this hysteresis around the threshold voltage.  
The Comparator hysteresis is programmed using Bits30 in the Comparator Control Register CPT0CN  
(shown in SFR Definition 12.1). The amount of negative hysteresis voltage is determined by the settings of  
the CP0HYN bits. As shown in Figure 12.2, settings of 20, 10 or 5 mV of negative hysteresis can be pro-  
grammed, or negative hysteresis can be disabled. In a similar way, the amount of positive hysteresis is  
determined by the setting the CP0HYP bits.  
Comparator interrupts can be generated on both rising-edge and falling-edge output transitions. (For Inter-  
rupt enable and priority control, see Section “19.1. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors” on page 124). The  
CP0FIF flag is set to logic 1 upon a Comparator falling-edge occurrence, and the CP0RIF flag is set to  
logic 1 upon the Comparator rising-edge occurrence. Once set, these bits remain set until cleared by soft-  
ware. The Comparator rising-edge interrupt mask is enabled by setting CP0RIE to a logic 1. The  
Comparator0 falling-edge interrupt mask is enabled by setting CP0FIE to a logic 1.  
Rev. 0.2

C8051F70x/71x  
The output state of the Comparator can be obtained at any time by reading the CP0OUT bit. The Compar-  
ator is enabled by setting the CP0EN bit to logic 1, and is disabled by clearing this bit to logic 0.  
Note that false rising edges and falling edges can be detected when the comparator is first powered on or  
if changes are made to the hysteresis or response time control bits. Therefore, it is recommended that the  
rising-edge and falling-edge flags be explicitly cleared to logic 0 a short time after the comparator is  
enabled or its mode bits have been changed.

negative input. Important Note About Comparator Inputs: The Port pins selected as comparator inputs  
should be configured as analog inputs in their associated Port configuration register, and configured to be  
skipped by the Crossbar (for details on Port configuration, see Section “26.6. Special Function Registers  
for Accessing and Configuring Port I/O” on page 178).

13. Capacitive Sense (CS0)  
The Capacitive Sense subsystem uses a capacitance-to-digital circuit to determine the capacitance on a  
port pin. The module can take measurements from different port pins using the module’s 32-channel ana-  
log multiplexer. The module is enabled only when the CS0EN bit (CS0CN) is set to 1. Otherwise the mod-  
ule is in a low-power shutdown state. The module can be configured to take measurements on one port pin  
or a group of port pins, using auto-scan. An accumulator can be configured to accumulate multiple conver-  
sions on an input channel. Interrupts can be generated when CS0 completes a conversion or when the  
measured value crosses a threshold defined in CS0THH:L.

13.1. Configuring Port Pins as Capacitive Sense Inputs  
In order for a port pin to be measured by CS0, that port pin must be configured as an analog input (see “26.  
Port Input/Output” ). Configuring the input multiplexer to a port pin not configured as an analog input will  
cause the capacitive sense comparator to output incorrect measurements.  
13.2. Capacitive Sense Start-Of-Conversion Sources  
A capacitive sense conversion can be initiated in one of seven ways, depending on the programmed state  
of the CS0 start of conversion bits (CS0CF6:4). Conversions may be initiated by one of the following:  
1. Writing a 1 to the CS0BUSY bit of register CS0CN  
2. Timer 0 overflow  
3. Timer 2 overflow  
4. Timer 1 overflow  
5. Timer 3 overflow  
6. Convert continuously  
7. Convert continuously with auto-scan enabled  
Conversions can be configured to be initiated continuously through one of two methods. CS0 can be con-  
figured to convert at a single channel continuously or it can be configured to convert continuously with  
auto-scan enabled. When configured to convert continuously, conversions will begin after the CS0BUSY  
bit in CS0CF has been set.  
An interrupt will be generated if CS0 conversion complete interrupts are enabled by setting the ECSCPT  
bit (EIE2.0).  
Note: CS0 conversion complete interrupt behavior depends on the settings of the CS0 accumulator. If CS0 is  
configured to accumulate multiple conversions on an input channel, a CS0 conversion complete interrupt will  
be generated only after the last conversion completes.  
13.3. Automatic Scanning  
CS0 can be configured to automatically scan a sequence of contiguous CS0 input channels by configuring  
and enabling auto-scan. Using auto-scan with the CS0 comparator interrupt enabled allows a system to  
detect a change in measured capacitance without requiring any additional dedicated MCU resources.  
Auto-scan is enabled by setting the CS0 start-of-conversion bits (CS0CF6:4) to 111b. After enabling auto-  
scan, the starting and ending channels should be set to appropriate values in CS0SS and CS0SE, respec-  
tively. Writing to CS0SS when auto-scan is enabled will cause the value written to CS0SS to be copied into  
CS0MX. After being enabled, writing a 1 to CS0BUSY will start auto-scan conversions. When auto-scan  
completes the number of conversions defined in the CS0 accumulator bits (CS0CF1:0) (see “13.5. CS0  
Conversion Accumulator” ), auto-scan configures CS0MX to the next highest port pin configured as an  
analog input and begins a conversion on that channel. This scan sequence continues until CS0MX  
reaches the ending input channel value defined in CS0SE. After one or more conversions have been taken  
at this channel, auto-scan configures CS0MX back to the starting input channel. For an example system  
configured to use auto-scan, please see Figure “13.2 Auto-Scan Example” on page 75.  
Note: Auto-scan attempts one conversion on a CS0MX channel regardless of whether that channel’s port pin has  
been configured as an analog input.

If auto-scan is enabled when the device enters suspend mode, auto-scan will remain enabled and running.  
This feature allows the device to wake from suspend through CS0 greater-than comparator event on any  
configured capacitive sense input included in the auto-scan sequence of inputs.

13.4. CS0 Comparator  
The CS0 comparator compares the latest capacitive sense conversion result with the value stored in  
CS0THH:CS0THL. If the result is less than or equal to the stored value, the CS0CMPF bit(CS0CN:0) is set  
to 0. If the result is greater than the stored value, CS0CMPF is set to 1.  
If the CS0 conversion accumulator is configured to accumulate multiple conversions, a comparison will not  
be made until the last conversion has been accumulated.  
An interrupt will be generated if CS0 greater-than comparator interrupts are enabled by setting the ECS-  
GRT bit (EIE2.1) when the comparator sets CS0CMPF to 1.  
If auto-scan is running when the comparator sets the CS0CMPF bit, no further auto-scan initiated conver-  
sions will start until firmware sets CS0BUSY to 1.  
A CS0 greater-than comparator event can wake a device from suspend mode. This feature is useful in sys-  
tems configured to continuously sample one or more capacitive sense channels. The device will remain in  
the low-power suspend state until the captured value of one of the scanned channels causes a CS0  
Rev. 0.2

C8051F70x/71x  
greater-than comparator event to occur. It is not necessary to have CS0 comparator interrupts enabled in  
order to wake a device from suspend with a greater-than event.  
For a summary of behavior with different CS0 comparator, auto-scan, and auto accumulator settings,  
please see Table 13.1.  
13.5. CS0 Conversion Accumulator  
CS0 can be configured to accumulate multiple conversions on an input channel. The number of samples to  
be accumulated is configured using the CS0ACU1:0 bits (CS0CF1:0). The accumulator can accumulate 1  
sample, 4 samples, 8 samples, or 16 samples. After the defined number of samples have been accumu-  
lated, the result is converted to a 16-bit value by dividing the 20-bit accumulator by either 1, 4, 8, or 16  
(depending on the CS0ACU[1:0] setting) and copied to the CS0DH:CS0DL SFRs.

14. CIP-51 Microcontroller  
The MCU system controller core is the CIP-51 microcontroller. The CIP-51 is fully compatible with the  
MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to develop soft-  
ware. The MCU family has a superset of all the peripherals included with a standard 8051. The CIP-51  
also includes on-chip debug hardware (see description in Section 33), and interfaces directly with the ana-  
log and digital subsystems providing a complete data acquisition or control-system solution in a single inte-  
grated circuit.  
The CIP-51 Microcontroller core implements the standard 8051 organization and peripherals as well as  
additional custom peripherals and functions to extend its capability (see Figure 14.1 for a block diagram).  
The CIP-51 includes the following features:  
Fully Compatible with MCS-51 Instruction Set  
25 MIPS Peak Throughput with 25 MHz Clock  
0 to 25 MHz Clock Frequency  
Reset Input  
Power Management Modes  
On-chip Debug Logic  
Extended Interrupt Handler  
Program and Data Memory Security  
Performance  
The CIP-51 employs a pipelined architecture that greatly increases its instruction throughput over the stan-  
dard 8051 architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24 system  
clock cycles to execute, and usually have a maximum system clock of 12 MHz. By contrast, the CIP-51  
core executes 70% of its instructions in one or two system clock cycles, with no instructions taking more  
than eight system clock cycles.

14.1. Instruction Set  
The instruction set of the CIP-51 System Controller is fully compatible with the standard MCS-51™ instruc-  
tion set. Standard 8051 development tools can be used to develop software for the CIP-51. All CIP-51  
instructions are the binary and functional equivalent of their MCS-51™ counterparts, including opcodes,  
addressing modes and effect on PSW flags. However, instruction timing is different than that of the stan-  
dard 8051.  
14.1.1. Instruction and CPU Timing  
In many 8051 implementations, a distinction is made between machine cycles and clock cycles, with  
machine cycles varying from 2 to 12 clock cycles in length. However, the CIP-51 implementation is based  
solely on clock cycle timing. All instruction timings are specified in terms of clock cycles.  
Due to the pipelined architecture of the CIP-51, most instructions execute in the same number of clock  
cycles as there are program bytes in the instruction. Conditional branch instructions take one less clock  
cycle to complete when the branch is not taken as opposed to when the branch is taken. Table 14.1 is the  
CIP-51 Instruction Set Summary, which includes the mnemonic, number of bytes, and number of clock  
cycles for each instruction.

14.2. CIP-51 Register Descriptions  
Following are descriptions of SFRs related to the operation of the CIP-51 System Controller. Reserved bits  
should always be written to the value indicated in the SFR description. Future product versions may use  
these bits to implement new features in which case the reset value of the bit will be the indicated value,  
selecting the feature's default state. Detailed descriptions of the remaining SFRs are included in the sec-  
tions of the data sheet associated with their corresponding system function.

15. Memory Organization  
The memory organization of the CIP-51 System Controller is similar to that of a standard 8051. There are  
two separate memory spaces: program memory and data memory. Program and data memory share the  
same address space but are accessed via different instruction types. The memory organization of the  
C8051F70x/71x device family is shown in Figure 15.1

The members of the C8051F70x/71x device family contain 16 kB (C8051F702/3/6/7), 15 kB  
(C8051F700/1/4/5), or 8 kB (C8051F708/9 and C8051F710/1/2/3/4/5) of re-programmable Flash memory  
that can be used as non-volatile program or data storage. The last byte of user code space is used as the  
security lock byte (0x3FFF on 16 kB devices, 0x3BFF on 15 kB devices and 0x1FFF on 8 kB devices).

15.1.1. MOVX Instruction and Program Memory  
The MOVX instruction in an 8051 device is typically used to access external data memory. On the  
C8051F70x/71x devices, the MOVX instruction is normally used to read and write on-chip XRAM, but can  
be re-configured to write and erase on-chip Flash memory space. MOVC instructions are always used to  
read Flash memory, while MOVX write instructions are used to erase and write Flash. This Flash access  
feature provides a mechanism for the C8051F70x/71x to update program code and use the program mem-  
ory space for non-volatile data storage. Refer to Section “20. Flash Memory” on page 134 for further  
details.  
15.2. EEPROM Memory  
The C8051F700/1/4/5/8/9 and C8051F712/3 contain EEPROM emulation hardware, which uses Flash  
memory to emulate a 32-byte EEPROM memory space for non-volatile data storage. The EEPROM data is  
accessed through a RAM buffer for increased speed. More details about the EEPROM can be found in  
Section “21. EEPROM” on page 141.  
15.3. Data Memory  
The C8051F70x/71x device family includes 512 bytes of RAM data memory. 256 bytes of this memory is  
mapped into the internal RAM space of the 8051. 256 bytes of this memory is on-chip “external” memory.  
The data memory map is shown in Figure 15.1 for reference.  
15.3.1. Internal RAM  
There are 256 bytes of internal RAM mapped into the data memory space from 0x00 through 0xFF. The  
lower 128 bytes of data memory are used for general purpose registers and scratch pad memory. Either  
direct or indirect addressing may be used to access the lower 128 bytes of data memory. Locations 0x00  
through 0x1F are addressable as four banks of general purpose registers, each bank consisting of eight  
Rev. 0.2  
95  
C8051F70x/71x  
byte-wide registers. The next 16 bytes, locations 0x20 through 0x2F, may either be addressed as bytes or  
as 128 bit locations accessible with the direct addressing mode.  
The upper 128 bytes of data memory are accessible only by indirect addressing. This region occupies the  
same address space as the Special Function Registers (SFR) but is physically separate from the SFR  
space. The addressing mode used by an instruction when accessing locations above 0x7F determines  
whether the CPU accesses the upper 128 bytes of data memory space or the SFRs. Instructions that use  
direct addressing will access the SFR space. Instructions using indirect addressing above 0x7F access the  
upper 128 bytes of data memory. Figure 15.1 illustrates the data memory organization of the  
C8051F70x/71x.  
15.3.1.1. General Purpose Registers  
The lower 32 bytes of data memory, locations 0x00 through 0x1F, may be addressed as four banks of gen-  
eral-purpose registers. Each bank consists of eight byte-wide registers designated R0 through R7. Only  
one of these banks may be enabled at a time. Two bits in the program status word, RS0 (PSW.3) and RS1  
(PSW.4), select the active register bank (see description of the PSW in SFR Definition 14.6). This allows  
fast context switching when entering subroutines and interrupt service routines. Indirect addressing modes  
use registers R0 and R1 as index registers.  
15.3.1.2. Bit Addressable Locations  
In addition to direct access to data memory organized as bytes, the sixteen data memory locations at 0x20  
through 0x2F are also accessible as 128 individually addressable bits. Each bit has a bit address from  
0x00 to 0x7F. Bit 0 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address 0x00 while bit7 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address  
0x07. Bit 7 of the byte at 0x2F has bit address 0x7F. A bit access is distinguished from a full byte access by  
the type of instruction used (bit source or destination operands as opposed to a byte source or destina-  
tion).  
The MCS-51™ assembly language allows an alternate notation for bit addressing of the form XX.B where  
XX is the byte address and B is the bit position within the byte. For example, the instruction:  
MOV  
C, 22.3h  
moves the Boolean value at 0x13 (bit 3 of the byte at location 0x22) into the Carry flag.  
15.3.1.3. Stack  
A programmer's stack can be located anywhere in the 256-byte data memory. The stack area is desig-  
nated using the Stack Pointer (SP) SFR. The SP will point to the last location used. The next value pushed  
on the stack is placed at SP+1 and then SP is incremented. A reset initializes the stack pointer to location  
0x07. Therefore, the first value pushed on the stack is placed at location 0x08, which is also the first regis-  
ter (R0) of register bank 1. Thus, if more than one register bank is to be used, the SP should be initialized  
to a location in the data memory not being used for data storage. The stack depth can extend up to  
256 bytes.

16. External Data Memory Interface and On-Chip XRAM  
For C8051F70x/71x devices, 256 B of RAM are included on-chip and mapped into the external data mem-  
ory space (XRAM). Additionally, an External Memory Interface (EMIF) is available on the  
C8051F700/1/2/3/8/9 and C8051F710/1 devices, which can be used to access off-chip data memories and  
memory-mapped devices connected to the GPIO ports. The external memory space may be accessed  
using the external move instruction (MOVX) and the data pointer (DPTR), or using the MOVX indirect  
addressing mode using R0 or R1. If the MOVX instruction is used with an 8-bit address operand (such as  
@R1), then the high byte of the 16-bit address is provided by the External Memory Interface Control Reg-  
ister (EMI0CN, shown in SFR Definition 16.1).  
Note: The MOVX instruction can also be used for writing to the Flash memory. See Section “20. Flash Memory” on  
page 134 for details. The MOVX instruction accesses XRAM by default.  
16.1. Accessing XRAM  
The XRAM memory space is accessed using the MOVX instruction. The MOVX instruction has two forms,  
both of which use an indirect addressing method. The first method uses the Data Pointer, DPTR, a 16-bit  
register which contains the effective address of the XRAM location to be read from or written to. The sec-  
ond method uses R0 or R1 in combination with the EMI0CN register to generate the effective XRAM  
address. Examples of both of these methods are given below.  
16.1.1. 16-Bit MOVX Example  
The 16-bit form of the MOVX instruction accesses the memory location pointed to by the contents of the  
DPTR register. The following series of instructions reads the value of the byte at address 0x1234 into the  
accumulator A:  
MOV  
MOVX  
DPTR, #1234h  
A, @DPTR  
; load DPTR with 16-bit address to read (0x1234)  
; load contents of 0x1234 into accumulator A  
The above example uses the 16-bit immediate MOV instruction to set the contents of DPTR. Alternately,  
the DPTR can be accessed through the SFR registers DPH, which contains the upper 8-bits of DPTR, and  
DPL, which contains the lower 8-bits of DPTR.  
16.1.2. 8-Bit MOVX Example  
The 8-bit form of the MOVX instruction uses the contents of the EMI0CN SFR to determine the upper 8-bits  
of the effective address to be accessed and the contents of R0 or R1 to determine the lower 8-bits of the  
effective address to be accessed. The following series of instructions read the contents of the byte at  
address 0x1234 into the accumulator A.  
MOV  
MOV  
MOVX  
EMI0CN, #12h  
R0, #34h  
a, @R0  
; load high byte of address into EMI0CN  
; load low byte of address into R0 (or R1)  
; load contents of 0x1234 into accumulator A

16.2. Configuring the External Memory Interface  
Configuring the External Memory Interface consists of five steps:  
1. Configure the Output Modes of the associated port pins as either push-pull or open-drain (push-pull is  
most common).  
2. Configure Port latches to “park” the EMIF pins in a dormant state (usually by setting them to logic 1).  
3. Select Multiplexed mode or Non-multiplexed mode.  
4. Select the memory mode (on-chip only, split mode without bank select, split mode with bank select, or  
off-chip only).  
5. Set up timing to interface with off-chip memory or peripherals.  
Each of these five steps is explained in detail in the following sections. The Port selection, Multiplexed  
mode selection, and Mode bits are located in the EMI0CF register shown in SFR Definition .  
16.3. Port Configuration  
The EMIF pinout is shown in Figure 16.2 on Page 113  
The External Memory Interface claims the associated Port pins for memory operations ONLY during the  
execution of an off-chip MOVX instruction. Once the MOVX instruction has completed, control of the Port  
pins reverts to the Port latches for those pins. See Section “26. Port Input/Output” on page 166 for more  
information about Port operation and configuration. The Port latches should be explicitly configured to  
“park” the External Memory Interface pins in a dormant state, most commonly by setting them to a  
logic 1.  
During the execution of the MOVX instruction, the External Memory Interface will explicitly disable the driv-  
ers on all Port pins that are acting as Inputs (Data[7:0] during a READ operation, for example). The Output  
mode of the Port pins (whether the pin is configured as Open-Drain or Push-Pull) is unaffected by the  
External Memory Interface operation, and remains controlled by the PnMDOUT registers. In most cases,  
the output modes of all EMIF pins should be configured for push-pull mode.

16.4. Multiplexed and Non-multiplexed Selection  
The External Memory Interface is capable of acting in a Multiplexed mode or a Non-multiplexed mode,  
depending on the state of the EMD2 (EMI0CF.4) bit.  
16.4.1. Multiplexed Configuration  
In Multiplexed mode, the Data Bus and the lower 8-bits of the Address Bus share the same Port pins:  
AD[7:0]. In this mode, an external latch (74HC373 or equivalent logic gate) is used to hold the lower 8-bits  
of the RAM address. The external latch is controlled by the ALE (Address Latch Enable) signal, which is  
driven by the External Memory Interface logic. An example of a Multiplexed Configuration is shown in  
Figure 16.1.  
In Multiplexed mode, the external MOVX operation can be broken into two phases delineated by the state  
of the ALE signal. During the first phase, ALE is high and the lower 8-bits of the Address Bus are pre-  
sented to AD[7:0]. During this phase, the address latch is configured such that the Q outputs reflect the  
states of the ‘D’ inputs. When ALE falls, signaling the beginning of the second phase, the address latch  
outputs remain fixed and are no longer dependent on the latch inputs. Later in the second phase, the Data  
Bus controls the state of the AD[7:0] port at the time RD or WR is asserted.  
See Section “16.6.2. Multiplexed Mode” on page 109 for more information.

The external data memory space can be configured in one of four modes, shown in Figure 16.3, based on  
the EMIF Mode bits in the EMI0CF register (SFR Definition 16.2). These modes are summarized below.  
More information about the different modes can be found in Section “16.6. Timing” on page 104.

Figure 16.3. EMIF Operating Modes  
16.5.1. Internal XRAM Only  
When bits EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 00, all MOVX instructions will target the internal XRAM space on the  
device. Memory accesses to addresses beyond the populated space will wrap on 4 kB boundaries. As an  
example, the addresses 0x1000 and 0x2000 both evaluate to address 0x0000 in on-chip XRAM space.  
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine the high-byte of the effective address  
and R0 or R1 to determine the low-byte of the effective address.  
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of the 16-bit DPTR to determine the effective address.  
16.5.2. Split Mode without Bank Select  
When bit EMI0CF.[3:2] are set to 01, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and off-  
chip space.  
Effective addresses below the internal XRAM size boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.  
Effective addresses above the internal XRAM size boundary will access off-chip space.  
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is on-  
chip or off-chip. However, in the “No Bank Select” mode, an 8-bit MOVX operation will not drive the  
upper 8-bits A[15:8] of the Address Bus during an off-chip access. This allows the user to manipulate  
the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly via the port latches. This behavior is in  
contrast with “Split Mode with Bank Select” described below. The lower 8-bits of the Address Bus A[7:0]  
are driven, determined by R0 or R1.  
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip  
or off-chip, and unlike 8-bit MOVX operations, the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven  
during the off-chip transaction.  
Rev. 0.2  
103  
C8051F70x/71x  
16.5.3. Split Mode with Bank Select  
When EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 10, the XRAM memory map is split into two areas, on-chip space and off-  
chip space.  
Effective addresses below the internal XRAM size boundary will access on-chip XRAM space.  
Effective addresses above the internal XRAM size boundary will access off-chip space.  
8-bit MOVX operations use the contents of EMI0CN to determine whether the memory access is on-  
chip or off-chip. The upper 8-bits of the Address Bus A[15:8] are determined by EMI0CN, and the lower  
8-bits of the Address Bus A[7:0] are determined by R0 or R1. All 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are  
driven in “Bank Select” mode.  
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine whether the memory access is on-chip  
or off-chip, and the full 16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.  
16.5.4. External Only  
When EMI0CF[3:2] are set to 11, all MOVX operations are directed to off-chip space. On-chip XRAM is not  
visible to the CPU. This mode is useful for accessing off-chip memory located between 0x0000 and the  
internal XRAM size boundary.  
8-bit MOVX operations ignore the contents of EMI0CN. The upper Address bits A[15:8] are not driven  
(identical behavior to an off-chip access in “Split Mode without Bank Select” described above). This  
allows the user to manipulate the upper address bits at will by setting the Port state directly. The lower  
8-bits of the effective address A[7:0] are determined by the contents of R0 or R1.  
16-bit MOVX operations use the contents of DPTR to determine the effective address A[15:0]. The full  
16-bits of the Address Bus A[15:0] are driven during the off-chip transaction.  
16.6. Timing  
The timing parameters of the External Memory Interface can be configured to enable connection to  
devices having different setup and hold time requirements. The Address Setup time, Address Hold time,  
RD and WR strobe widths, and in multiplexed mode, the width of the ALE pulse are all programmable in  
units of SYSCLK periods through EMI0TC, shown in SFR Definition 16.3, and EMI0CF[1:0].  
The timing for an off-chip MOVX instruction can be calculated by adding 4 SYSCLK cycles to the timing  
parameters defined by the EMI0TC register. Assuming non-multiplexed operation, the minimum execution  
time for an off-chip XRAM operation is 5 SYSCLK cycles (1 SYSCLK for RD or WR pulse + 4 SYSCLKs).  
For multiplexed operations, the Address Latch Enable signal will require a minimum of 2 additional SYS-  
CLK cycles. Therefore, the minimum execution time for an off-chip XRAM operation in multiplexed mode is  
7 SYSCLK cycles (2 for /ALE + 1 for RD or WR + 4). The programmable setup and hold times default to  
the maximum delay settings after a reset. Table 16.1 lists the ac parameters for the External Memory Inter-  
face, and Figure 16.4 through Figure 16.9 show the timing diagrams for the different External Memory  
Interface modes and MOVX operations.

17. In-System Device Identification  
The C8051F70x/71x has SFRs that identify the device family and derivative. These SFRs can be read by  
firmware at runtime to determine the capabilities of the MCU that is executing code. This allows the same  
firmware image to run on MCUs with different memory sizes and peripherals, and dynamically changing  
functionality to suit the capabilities of that MCU.  
In order for firmware to identify the MCU, it must read three SFRs. HWID describes the MCU’s family,  
DERIVID describes the specific derivative within that device family, and REVID describes the hardware  
revision of the MCU.

18. Special Function Registers  
The direct-access data memory locations from 0x80 to 0xFF constitute the special function registers  
(SFRs). The SFRs provide control and data exchange with the C8051F70x/71x's resources and peripher-  
als. The CIP-51 controller core duplicates the SFRs found in a typical 8051 implementation as well as  
implementing additional SFRs used to configure and access the sub-systems unique to the  
C8051F70x/71x. This allows the addition of new functionality while retaining compatibility with the MCS-  
51™ instruction set. Table 18.1 lists the SFRs implemented in the C8051F70x/71x device family.  
The SFR registers are accessed anytime the direct addressing mode is used to access memory locations  
from 0x80 to 0xFF. SFRs with addresses ending in 0x0 or 0x8 (e.g. P0, TCON, SCON0, IE, etc.) are bit-  
addressable as well as byte-addressable. All other SFRs are byte-addressable only. Unoccupied  
addresses in the SFR space are reserved for future use. Accessing these areas will have an indeterminate  
effect and should be avoided. Refer to the corresponding pages of the data sheet, as indicated in  
Table 18.2, for a detailed description of each register.

C8051F70x/71x  
19. Interrupts  
The C8051F70x/71x includes an extended interrupt system supporting a total of 16 interrupt sources with  
two priority levels. The allocation of interrupt sources between on-chip peripherals and external input pins  
varies according to the specific version of the device. Each interrupt source has one or more associated  
interrupt-pending flag(s) located in an SFR. When a peripheral or external source meets a valid interrupt  
condition, the associated interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1.  
If interrupts are enabled for the source, an interrupt request is generated when the interrupt-pending flag is  
set. As soon as execution of the current instruction is complete, the CPU generates an LCALL to a prede-  
termined address to begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). Each ISR must end with an RETI  
instruction, which returns program execution to the next instruction that would have been executed if the  
interrupt request had not occurred. If interrupts are not enabled, the interrupt-pending flag is ignored by the  
hardware and program execution continues as normal. (The interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1 regard-  
less of the interrupt's enable/disable state.)  
Each interrupt source can be individually enabled or disabled through the use of an associated interrupt  
enable bit in an SFR (IE–EIE1). However, interrupts must first be globally enabled by setting the EA bit  
(IE.7) to logic 1 before the individual interrupt enables are recognized. Setting the EA bit to logic 0 disables  
all interrupt sources regardless of the individual interrupt-enable settings.  
Some interrupt-pending flags are automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR.  
However, most are not cleared by the hardware and must be cleared by software before returning from the  
ISR. If an interrupt-pending flag remains set after the CPU completes the return-from-interrupt (RETI)  
instruction, a new interrupt request will be generated immediately and the CPU will re-enter the ISR after  
the completion of the next instruction.

19.1. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors  
The C8051F70x/71x MCUs support 12 interrupt sources. Software can simulate an interrupt by setting an  
interrupt-pending flag to logic 1. If interrupts are enabled for the flag, an interrupt request will be generated  
and the CPU will vector to the ISR address associated with the interrupt-pending flag. MCU interrupt  
sources, associated vector addresses, priority order and control bits are summarized in Table 19.1. Refer  
to the datasheet section associated with a particular on-chip peripheral for information regarding valid  
interrupt conditions for the peripheral and the behavior of its interrupt-pending flag(s).  
19.1.1. Interrupt Priorities  
Each interrupt source can be individually programmed to one of two priority levels: low or high. A low prior-  
ity interrupt service routine can be preempted by a high priority interrupt. A high priority interrupt cannot be  
preempted. Each interrupt has an associated interrupt priority bit in an SFR (IP or EIP1) used to configure  
its priority level. Low priority is the default. If two interrupts are recognized simultaneously, the interrupt with  
the higher priority is serviced first. If both interrupts have the same priority level, a fixed priority order is  
used to arbitrate, given in Table 19.1.  
19.1.2. Interrupt Latency  
Interrupt response time depends on the state of the CPU when the interrupt occurs. Pending interrupts are  
sampled and priority decoded each system clock cycle. Therefore, the fastest possible response time is 5  
system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt and 4 clock cycles to complete the LCALL to the  
ISR. If an interrupt is pending when a RETI is executed, a single instruction is executed before an LCALL  
is made to service the pending interrupt. Therefore, the maximum response time for an interrupt (when no  
other interrupt is currently being serviced or the new interrupt is of greater priority) occurs when the CPU is  
performing an RETI instruction followed by a DIV as the next instruction. In this case, the response time is  
18 system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt, 5 clock cycles to execute the RETI, 8 clock  
cycles to complete the DIV instruction and 4 clock cycles to execute the LCALL to the ISR. If the CPU is  
executing an ISR for an interrupt with equal or higher priority, the new interrupt will not be serviced until the  
current ISR completes, including the RETI and following instruction.

19.3. INT0 and INT1 External Interrupts  
The INT0 and INT1 external interrupt sources are configurable as active high or low, edge or level sensi-  
tive. The IN0PL (INT0 Polarity) and IN1PL (INT1 Polarity) bits in the IT01CF register select active high or  
active low; the IT0 and IT1 bits in TCON (Section “31.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 247) select level or  
edge sensitive. The table below lists the possible configurations.

INT0 and INT1 are assigned to Port pins as defined in the IT01CF register (see SFR Definition 19.7). Note  
that INT0 and INT0 Port pin assignments are independent of any Crossbar assignments. INT0 and INT1  
will monitor their assigned Port pins without disturbing the peripheral that was assigned the Port pin via the  
Crossbar. To assign a Port pin only to INT0 and/or INT1, configure the Crossbar to skip the selected pin(s).  
This is accomplished by setting the associated bit in register XBR0 (see Section “26.3. Priority Crossbar  
Decoder” on page 171 for complete details on configuring the Crossbar).  
IE0 (TCON.1) and IE1 (TCON.3) serve as the interrupt-pending flags for the INT0 and INT1 external inter-  
rupts, respectively. If an INT0 or INT1 external interrupt is configured as edge-sensitive, the corresponding  
interrupt-pending flag is automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR. When  
configured as level sensitive, the interrupt-pending flag remains logic 1 while the input is active as defined  
by the corresponding polarity bit (IN0PL or IN1PL); the flag remains logic 0 while the input is inactive. The  
external interrupt source must hold the input active until the interrupt request is recognized. It must then  
deactivate the interrupt request before execution of the ISR completes or another interrupt request will be  
generated.

20. Flash Memory  
On-chip, re-programmable Flash memory is included for program code and non-volatile data storage. The  
Flash memory can be programmed in-system through the C2 interface or by software using the MOVX  
write instruction. Once cleared to logic 0, a Flash bit must be erased to set it back to logic 1. Flash bytes  
would typically be erased (set to 0xFF) before being reprogrammed. The write and erase operations are  
automatically timed by hardware for proper execution; data polling to determine the end of the write/erase  
operations is not required. Code execution is stalled during Flash write/erase operations. Refer to  
Table 7.6 for complete Flash memory electrical characteristics.  
20.1. Programming The Flash Memory  
The simplest means of programming the Flash memory is through the C2 interface using programming  
tools provided by Silicon Laboratories or a third party vendor. This is the only means for programming a  
non-initialized device. For details on the C2 commands to program Flash memory, see Section “33. C2  
Interface” on page 285.  
The Flash memory can be programmed by software using the MOVX write instruction with the address and  
data byte to be programmed provided as normal operands. Before programming Flash memory using  
MOVX, Flash programming operations must be enabled by: (1) setting the PSWE Program Store Write  
Enable bit (PSCTL.0) to logic 1 (this directs the MOVX writes to target Flash memory); and (2) Writing the  
Flash key codes in sequence to the Flash Lock register (FLKEY). The PSWE bit remains set until cleared  
by software. For detailed guidelines on programming Flash from firmware, please see Section “20.4. Flash  
Write and Erase Guidelines” on page 136.  
To ensure the integrity of the Flash contents, the on-chip VDD Monitor must be enabled and enabled as a  
reset source in any system that includes code that writes and/or erases Flash memory from software. Fur-  
thermore, there should be no delay between enabling the V Monitor and enabling the V Monitor as a  
DD  
DD  
reset source. Any attempt to write or erase Flash memory while the V  
Monitor is disabled, or not  
DD  
enabled as a reset source, will cause a Flash Error device reset.  
20.1.1. Flash Lock and Key Functions  
Flash writes and erases by user software are protected with a lock and key function. The Flash Lock and  
Key Register (FLKEY) must be written with the correct key codes, in sequence, before Flash operations  
may be performed. The key codes are: 0xA5, 0xF1. The timing does not matter, but the codes must be  
written in order. If the key codes are written out of order, or the wrong codes are written, Flash writes and  
erases will be disabled until the next system reset. Flash writes and erases will also be disabled if a Flash  
write or erase is attempted before the key codes have been written properly. The Flash lock resets after  
each write or erase; the key codes must be written again before a following Flash operation can be per-  
formed. The FLKEY register is detailed in SFR Definition 20.2.  
20.1.2. Flash Erase Procedure  
The Flash memory is organized in 512-byte pages. The erase operation applies to an entire page (setting  
all bytes in the page to 0xFF). To erase an entire 512-byte page, perform the following steps:  
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.  
2. Set the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).  
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).  
4. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.  
5. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.  
6. Using the MOVX instruction, write a data byte to any location within the 512-byte page to be erased.  
134  
Rev. 0.2  
C8051F70x/71x  
7. Clear the PSWE and PSEE bits.  
8. Restore previous interrupt state.  
Steps 4–6 must be repeated for each 512-byte page to be erased.  
Note: Flash security settings may prevent erasure of some Flash pages, such as the reserved area and the page  
containing the lock bytes. For a summary of Flash security settings and restrictions affecting Flash erase  
operations, please see Section “20.3. Security Options” on page 135.  
20.1.3. Flash Write Procedure  
A write to Flash memory can clear bits to logic 0 but cannot set them; only an erase operation can set bits  
to logic 1 in Flash. A byte location to be programmed should be erased before a new value is written.  
The recommended procedure for writing a single byte in Flash is as follows:  
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.  
2. Ensure that the Flash byte has been erased (has a value of 0xFF).  
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).  
4. Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).  
5. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.  
6. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.  
7. Using the MOVX instruction, write a single data byte to the desired location within the 512-byte sector.  
8. Clear the PSWE bit.  
9. Restore previous interrupt state.  
Steps 5–7 must be repeated for each byte to be written.  
Note: Flash security settings may prevent writes to some areas of Flash, such as the reserved area. For a summary  
of Flash security settings and restrictions affecting Flash write operations, please see Section “20.3. Security  
Options” on page 135.  
20.2. Non-volatile Data Storage  
The Flash memory can be used for non-volatile data storage as well as program code. This allows data  
such as calibration coefficients to be calculated and stored at run time. Data is written using the MOVX  
write instruction and read using the MOVC instruction.  
Note: MOVX read instructions always target XRAM.  
20.3. Security Options  
The CIP-51 provides security options to protect the Flash memory from inadvertent modification by soft-  
ware as well as to prevent the viewing of proprietary program code and constants. The Program Store  
Write Enable (bit PSWE in register PSCTL) and the Program Store Erase Enable (bit PSEE in register  
PSCTL) bits protect the Flash memory from accidental modification by software. PSWE must be explicitly  
set to 1 before software can modify the Flash memory; both PSWE and PSEE must be set to 1 before soft-  
ware can erase Flash memory. Additional security features prevent proprietary program code and data  
constants from being read or altered across the C2 interface.  
A Security Lock Byte located at the last byte of Flash user space offers protection of the Flash program  
memory from access (reads, writes, and erases) by unprotected code or the C2 interface. The Flash secu-  
Rev. 0.2  
135  
C8051F70x/71x  
rity mechanism allows the user to lock all Flash pages, starting at page 0, by writing a non-0xFF value to  
the lock byte. Note that writing a non-0xFF value to the lock byte will lock all pages of FLASH from  
reads, writes, and erases, including the page containing the lock byte.  
The level of Flash security depends on the Flash access method. The three Flash access methods that  
can be restricted are reads, writes, and erases from the C2 debug interface, user firmware executing on  
unlocked pages, and user firmware executing on locked pages. Table 20.1 summarizes the Flash security  
features of the C8051F70x/71x devices.

20.4. Flash Write and Erase Guidelines  
Any system which contains routines which write or erase Flash memory from software involves some risk  
that the write or erase routines will execute unintentionally if the CPU is operating outside its specified  
operating range of VDD, system clock frequency, or temperature. This accidental execution of Flash modi-  
136  
Rev. 0.2  
C8051F70x/71x  
fying code can result in alteration of Flash memory contents causing a system failure that is only recover-  
able by re-Flashing the code in the device.  
To help prevent the accidental modification of Flash by firmware, the VDD Monitor must be enabled and  
enabled as a reset source on C8051F70x/71x devices for the Flash to be successfully modified. If either  
the VDD Monitor or the VDD Monitor reset source is not enabled, a Flash Error Device Reset will be  
generated when the firmware attempts to modify the Flash.  
The following guidelines are recommended for any system that contains routines which write or erase  
Flash from code.  
20.4.1. VDD Maintenance and the VDD Monitor  
1. If the system power supply is subject to voltage or current "spikes," add sufficient transient protection  
devices to the power supply to ensure that the supply voltages listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings  
table are not exceeded.  
2. Make certain that the minimum VDD rise time specification of 1 ms is met. If the system cannot meet  
this rise time specification, then add an external VDD brownout circuit to the /RST pin of the device that  
holds the device in reset until VDD reaches the minimum device operating voltage and re-asserts /RST  
if VDD drops below the minimum device operating voltage.  
3. Keep the on-chip VDD Monitor enabled and enable the VDD Monitor as a reset source as early in code  
as possible. This should be the first set of instructions executed after the Reset Vector. For C-based  
systems, this will involve modifying the startup code added by the C compiler. See your compiler  
documentation for more details. Make certain that there are no delays in software between enabling the  
VDD Monitor and enabling the VDD Monitor as a reset source. Code examples showing this can be  
found in AN201, "Writing to Flash from Firmware", available from the Silicon Laboratories web site.  
Note: On C8051F70x/71x devices, both the VDD Monitor and the VDD Monitor reset source must be enabled to write  
or erase Flash without generating a Flash Error Device Reset.  
On C8051F70x/71x devices, both the VDD Monitor and the VDD Monitor reset source are enabled by hardware  
after a power-on reset.  
4. As an added precaution, explicitly enable the VDD Monitor and enable the VDD Monitor as a reset  
source inside the functions that write and erase Flash memory. The VDD Monitor enable instructions  
should be placed just after the instruction to set PSWE to a 1, but before the Flash write or erase  
operation instruction.  
5. Make certain that all writes to the RSTSRC (Reset Sources) register use direct assignment operators  
and explicitly DO NOT use the bit-wise operators (such as AND or OR). For example, "RSTSRC =  
0x02" is correct, but "RSTSRC |= 0x02" is incorrect.  
6. Make certain that all writes to the RSTSRC register explicitly set the PORSF bit to a 1. Areas to check  
are initialization code which enables other reset sources, such as the Missing Clock Detector or  
Comparator, for example, and instructions which force a Software Reset. A global search on "RSTSRC"  
can quickly verify this.  
20.4.2. PSWE Maintenance  
7. Reduce the number of places in code where the PSWE bit (b0 in PSCTL) is set to a 1. There should be  
exactly one routine in code that sets PSWE to a 1 to write Flash bytes and one routine in code that sets  
both PSWE and PSEE both to a 1 to erase Flash pages.  
8. Minimize the number of variable accesses while PSWE is set to a 1. Handle pointer address updates  
and loop maintenance outside the "PSWE = 1;... PSWE = 0;" area. Code examples showing this can be  
found in AN201, "Writing to Flash from Firmware", available from the Silicon Laboratories web site.  
Rev. 0.2  
137  
C8051F70x/71x  
9. Disable interrupts prior to setting PSWE to a 1 and leave them disabled until after PSWE has been  
reset to 0. Any interrupts posted during the Flash write or erase operation will be serviced in priority  
order after the Flash operation has been completed and interrupts have been re-enabled by software.  
10.Make certain that the Flash write and erase pointer variables are not located in XRAM. See your  
compiler documentation for instructions regarding how to explicitly locate variables in different memory  
areas.  
11.Add address bounds checking to the routines that write or erase Flash memory to ensure that a routine  
called with an illegal address does not result in modification of the Flash.  
20.4.3. System Clock  
12.If operating from an external crystal, be advised that crystal performance is susceptible to electrical  
interference and is sensitive to layout and to changes in temperature. If the system is operating in an  
electrically noisy environment, use the internal oscillator or use an external CMOS clock.  
13.If operating from the external oscillator, switch to the internal oscillator during Flash write or erase  
operations. The external oscillator can continue to run, and the CPU can switch back to the external  
oscillator after the Flash operation has completed.  
Additional Flash recommendations and example code can be found in AN201, "Writing to Flash from Firm-  
ware", available from the Silicon Laboratories web site.

operation is attempted while these operations are disabled, the Flash will be perma-

21. EEPROM  
C8051F700/1/4/5/8/9 and C8051F712/3 devices have hardware which emulates 32 bytes of non-volatile,  
byte-programmable EEPROM data space. The module mirrors each non-volatile byte through 32 bytes of  
volatile data space. This data space can be accessed indirectly through EEADDR and EEDATA. Users can  
copy the complete 32-byte image between EEPROM space and volatile space using controls in the  
EECNTL SFR.

21.1. RAM Reads and Writes  
In order to perform EEPROM reads and writes, the EEPROM control logic must be enabled by setting  
EEEN (EECNTL.7).  
32 bytes of RAM can be accessed indirectly through EEADDR and EEDATA. To write to a byte of RAM,  
write address of byte to EEADDR and then write the value to be written to EEDATA. To read a byte from  
RAM, write address of byte to be read to EEADDR. The value stored at that address can then be read from  
EEDATA.  
21.2. Auto Increment  
When AUTOINC (EECNTL.0) is set, EEADDR will increment by one after each write to EEDATA and each  
read from EEDATA. When Auto Increment is enabled and EEADDR reaches the top address of dedicated  
RAM space, the next write to or read from EEDATA will cause EEADDR to wrap along the address bound-  
ary, which will set the address to 0.  
21.3. Interfacing with the EEPROM  
The EEPROM is accessed through the dedicated 32 bytes of RAM. Writes to EEPROM are allowed only  
after writes have been enabled (see “21.4. EEPROM Security” ). The contents of the EEPROM can be  
uploaded to the RAM by setting EEREAD (EECNTL.2). Contents of RAM can be downloaded to EEPROM  
by setting EEWRT (EENTL.1).  
Rev. 0.2

C8051F70x/71x  
21.4. EEPROM Security  
RAM can only be downloaded to EEPROM after firmware writes a sequence of two bytes to EEKEY. In  
order to enable EEPROM writes:  
1. Write the first EEPROM key code byte to EEKEY: 0x55  
2. Write the second EEPROM key code byte to EEKEY: 0xAA  
After a EEPROM writes have been enabled and a single write has executed, the control logic locks  
EEPROM writes until the two-byte unlock sequence has been entered into EEKEY again.  
The protection state of the EEPROM can be observed by reading EEPSTATE (EEKEY2:0). This state can  
be read at any time without affecting the EEPROM’s protection state.  
if the two-byte unlock sequence is entered incorrectly, or if a write is attempted without first entering the  
two-byte sequence, EEPROM writes will be locked until the next power-on reset.

22. Power Management Modes  
The C8051F70x/71x devices have three software programmable power management modes: Idle, Stop,  
and Suspend. Idle mode and Stop mode are part of the standard 8051 architecture, while Suspend mode  
is an enhanced power-saving mode implemented by the high-speed oscillator peripheral.  
Idle mode halts the CPU while leaving the peripherals and clocks active. In Stop mode, the CPU is halted,  
all interrupts and timers (except the Missing Clock Detector) are inactive, and the internal oscillator is  
stopped (analog peripherals remain in their selected states; the external oscillator is not affected). Sus-  
pend mode is similar to Stop mode in that the internal oscillator and CPU are halted, but the device can  
wake on events such as a Port Mismatch, Comparator low output, or a Timer 3 overflow. Since clocks are  
running in Idle mode, power consumption is dependent upon the system clock frequency and the number  
of peripherals left in active mode before entering Idle. Stop mode and Suspend mode consume the least  
power because the majority of the device is shut down with no clocks active. SFR Definition 22.1 describes  
the Power Control Register (PCON) used to control the C8051F70x/71x's Stop and Idle power manage-  
ment modes. Suspend mode is controlled by the SUSPEND bit in the OSCICN register (SFR Definition  
25.3).  
Although the C8051F70x/71x has Idle, Stop, and Suspend modes available, more control over the device  
power can be achieved by enabling/disabling individual peripherals as needed. Each analog peripheral  
can be disabled when not in use and placed in low power mode. Digital peripherals, such as timers or  
serial buses, draw little power when they are not in use. Turning off oscillators lowers power consumption  
considerably, at the expense of reduced functionality.  
22.1. Idle Mode  
Setting the Idle Mode Select bit (PCON.0) causes the hardware to halt the CPU and enter Idle mode as  
soon as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution. All internal registers and memory maintain  
their original data. All analog and digital peripherals can remain active during Idle mode.  
Idle mode is terminated when an enabled interrupt is asserted or a reset occurs. The assertion of an  
enabled interrupt will cause the Idle Mode Selection bit (PCON.0) to be cleared and the CPU to resume  
operation. The pending interrupt will be serviced and the next instruction to be executed after the return  
from interrupt (RETI) will be the instruction immediately following the one that set the Idle Mode Select bit.  
If Idle mode is terminated by an internal or external reset, the CIP-51 performs a normal reset sequence  
and begins program execution at address 0x0000.  
Note: If the instruction following the write of the IDLE bit is a single-byte instruction and an interrupt occurs during the  
execution phase of the instruction that sets the IDLE bit, the CPU may not wake from Idle mode when a future  
interrupt occurs. Therefore, instructions that set the IDLE bit should be followed by an instruction that has two  
or more opcode bytes, for example:

If enabled, the Watchdog Timer (WDT) will eventually cause an internal watchdog reset and thereby termi-  
nate the Idle mode. This feature protects the system from an unintended permanent shutdown in the event  
of an inadvertent write to the PCON register. If this behavior is not desired, the WDT may be disabled by  
software prior to entering the Idle mode if the WDT was initially configured to allow this operation. This pro-  
vides the opportunity for additional power savings, allowing the system to remain in the Idle mode indefi-

nitely, waiting for an external stimulus to wake up the system. Refer to Section “24. Watchdog Timer” on  
page 155 for more information on the use and configuration of the WDT.  
22.2. Stop Mode  
Setting the Stop Mode Select bit (PCON.1) causes the controller core to enter Stop mode as soon as the  
instruction that sets the bit completes execution. In Stop mode the internal oscillator, CPU, and all digital  
peripherals are stopped; the state of the external oscillator circuit is not affected. Each analog peripheral  
(including the external oscillator circuit) may be shut down individually prior to entering Stop Mode. Stop  
mode can only be terminated by an internal or external reset. On reset, the device performs the normal  
reset sequence and begins program execution at address 0x0000.  
If enabled, the Missing Clock Detector will cause an internal reset and thereby terminate the Stop mode.  
The Missing Clock Detector should be disabled if the CPU is to be put to in STOP mode for longer than the  
MCD timeout of 100 µs.  
22.3. Suspend Mode  
Suspend mode allows a system running from the internal oscillator to go to a very low power state similar  
to Stop mode, but the processor can be awakened by certain events without requiring a reset of the device.  
Setting the SUSPEND bit (OSCICN.5) causes the hardware to halt the CPU and the high-frequency inter-  
nal oscillator, and go into Suspend mode as soon as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution.  
All internal registers and memory maintain their original data. Most digital peripherals are not active in Sus-  
pend mode. The exception to this is the Port Match feature and Timer 3, when it is run from an external  
oscillator source.  
Note that the clock divider bits CLKDIV[2:0] in register CLKSEL must be set to "divide by 1" when entering  
Suspend mode.  
Suspend mode can be terminated by five types of events, a port match (described in Section “26.5. Port  
Match” on page 176), a Timer 3 overflow (described in Section “31.3. Timer 3” on page 261), a comparator  
low output (if enabled), a capacitive sense greater-than comparator interrupt, or a device reset event. In  
order to run Timer 3 in Suspend mode, the timer must be configured to clock from the external clock  
source. When Suspend mode is terminated, the device will continue execution on the instruction following  
the one that set the SUSPEND bit. If the wake event (port match or Timer 3 overflow) was configured to  
generate an interrupt, the interrupt will be serviced upon waking the device. If Suspend mode is terminated  
by an internal or external reset, the CIP-51 performs a normal reset sequence and begins program execu-  
tion at address 0x0000.

23. Reset Sources  
Reset circuitry allows the controller to be easily placed in a predefined default condition. On entry to this  
reset state, the following occur:  
CIP-51 halts program execution  
Special Function Registers (SFRs) are initialized to their defined reset values  
External Port pins are forced to a known state  
Interrupts and timers are disabled.  
All SFRs are reset to the predefined values noted in the SFR detailed descriptions. The contents of internal  
data memory are unaffected during a reset; any previously stored data is preserved. However, since the  
stack pointer SFR is reset, the stack is effectively lost, even though the data on the stack is not altered.  
The Port I/O latches are reset to 0xFF (all logic ones) in open-drain mode. Weak pullups are enabled dur-  
ing and after the reset. For V  
Monitor and power-on resets, the RST pin is driven low until the device  
DD  
exits the reset state.  
On exit from the reset state, the program counter (PC) is reset, and the system clock defaults to the inter-  
nal oscillator. The Watchdog Timer is enabled with the system clock divided by 12 as its clock source. Pro-  
gram execution begins at location 0x0000.

23.1. Power-On Reset  
During power-up, the device is held in a reset state and the RST pin is driven low until V settles above  
DD  
V
. A delay occurs before the device is released from reset; the delay decreases as the V ramp time  
DD  
RST  
increases (V  
ramp time is defined as how fast V  
ramps from 0 V to V ). Figure 23.2. plots the  
RST  
DD  
DD  
power-on and V  
monitor reset timing. The maximum V  
ramp time is 1 ms; slower ramp times may  
DD  
DD  
cause the device to be released from reset before V reaches the V  
level. For ramp times less than  
DD  
RST  
1 ms, the power-on reset delay (T  
) is typically less than 10 ms.  
PORDelay  
On exit from a power-on reset, the PORSF flag (RSTSRC.1) is set by hardware to logic 1. When PORSF is  
set, all of the other reset flags in the RSTSRC Register are indeterminate (PORSF is cleared by all other  
resets). Since all resets cause program execution to begin at the same location (0x0000) software can  
read the PORSF flag to determine if a power-up was the cause of reset. The content of internal data mem-  
ory should be assumed to be undefined after a power-on reset. The V  
monitor is enabled following a  
DD  
power-on reset.

23.2. Power-Fail Reset / V Monitor  
DD  
When a power-down transition or power irregularity causes V  
to drop below V , the power supply  
RST  
DD  
monitor will drive the RST pin low and hold the CIP-51 in a reset state (see Figure 23.2). When V returns  
DD  
to a level above V  
, the CIP-51 will be released from the reset state. Even though internal data memory  
RST  
contents are not altered by the power-fail reset, it is impossible to determine if V dropped below the level  
DD  
required for data retention. If the PORSF flag reads 1, the data may no longer be valid. The V monitor is  
DD  
enabled after power-on resets. Its defined state (enabled/disabled) is not altered by any other reset source.  
For example, if the V monitor is disabled by code and a software reset is performed, the V monitor will  
DD  
DD  
still be disabled after the reset.  
Important Note: If the V monitor is being turned on from a disabled state, it should be enabled before it  
DD  
is selected as a reset source. Selecting the V monitor as a reset source before it is enabled and stabi-  
DD  
lized may cause a system reset. In some applications, this reset may be undesirable. If this is not desirable  
in the application, a delay should be introduced between enabling the monitor and selecting it as a reset  
source. The procedure for enabling the V monitor and configuring it as a reset source from a disabled  
DD  
state is shown below:  
1. Enable the V monitor (VDMEN bit in VDM0CN = 1).  
DD  
2. If necessary, wait for the V monitor to stabilize.  
DD  
3. Select the V monitor as a reset source (PORSF bit in RSTSRC = 1).

See Figure 23.2 for V  
monitor timing; note that the power-on-reset delay is not incurred after a V

monitor reset. See Section “7. Electrical Characteristics” on page 40 for complete electrical characteristics

23.3. External Reset  
The external RST pin provides a means for external circuitry to force the device into a reset state. Assert-  
ing an active-low signal on the RST pin generates a reset; an external pullup and/or decoupling of the RST  
pin may be necessary to avoid erroneous noise-induced resets. See Section “7. Electrical Characteristics”  
on page 40 for complete RST pin specifications. The PINRSF flag (RSTSRC.0) is set on exit from an exter-  
nal reset.  
23.4. Missing Clock Detector Reset  
The Missing Clock Detector (MCD) is a one-shot circuit that is triggered by the system clock. If the system  
clock remains high or low for more than 100 µs, the one-shot will time out and generate a reset. After a  
MCD reset, the MCDRSF flag (RSTSRC.2) will read 1, signifying the MCD as the reset source; otherwise,  
this bit reads 0. Writing a 1 to the MCDRSF bit enables the Missing Clock Detector; writing a 0 disables it.  
The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.

23.5. Comparator0 Reset  
Comparator0 can be configured as a reset source by writing a 1 to the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5).  
Comparator0 should be enabled and allowed to settle prior to writing to C0RSEF to prevent any turn-on  
chatter on the output from generating an unwanted reset. The Comparator0 reset is active-low: if the non-  
inverting input voltage (on CP0+) is less than the inverting input voltage (on CP0-), the device is put into  
the reset state. After a Comparator0 reset, the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5) will read 1 signifying  
Comparator0 as the reset source; otherwise, this bit reads 0. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this  
reset.  
23.6. Watchdog Timer Reset  
The programmable Watchdog Timer (WDT) can be used to prevent software from running out of control  
during a system malfunction. The WDT function can be enabled or disabled by software as described in  
Section “24. Watchdog Timer” on page 155. If a system malfunction prevents user software from updating  
the WDT, a reset is generated and the WDTRSF bit (RSTSRC.3) is set to 1. The state of the RST pin is  
unaffected by this reset.  
23.7. Flash Error Reset  
If a Flash read/write/erase or program read targets an illegal address, a system reset is generated. This  
may occur due to any of the following:  
A Flash write or erase is attempted above user code space. This occurs when PSWE is set to 1 and a MOVX  
write operation targets an address above address 0x3DFF.  
A Flash read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when a MOVC operation targets an address  
above address 0x3DFF.  
A Program read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when user code attempts to branch to an  
address above 0x3DFF.  
A Flash read, write or erase attempt is restricted due to a Flash security setting (see Section “20.3. Security  
Options” on page 135).  
The FERROR bit (RSTSRC.6) is set following a Flash error reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by  
this reset.  
23.8. Software Reset  
Software may force a reset by writing a 1 to the SWRSF bit (RSTSRC.4). The SWRSF bit will read 1 fol-  
lowing a software forced reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.

24. Watchdog Timer  
The MCU includes a programmable Watchdog Timer (WDT) running off the system clock. A WDT overflow  
will force the MCU into the reset state. To prevent the reset, the WDT must be restarted by application soft-  
ware before overflow. If the system experiences a software or hardware malfunction preventing the soft-  
ware from restarting the WDT, the WDT will overflow and cause a reset.  
Following a reset the WDT is automatically enabled and running with the default maximum time interval. If  
desired the WDT can be disabled by system software or locked on to prevent accidental disabling. Once  
locked, the WDT cannot be disabled until the next system reset. The state of the /RST pin is unaffected by  
this reset.  
The WDT consists of a 21-bit timer running from the programmed system clock. The timer measures the  
period between specific writes to its control register. If this period exceeds the programmed limit, a WDT  
reset is generated. The WDT can be enabled and disabled as needed in software, or can be permanently  
enabled if desired. Watchdog features are controlled via the Watchdog Timer Control Register (WDTCN)  
shown in SFR Definition 24.1.  
24.1. Enable/Reset WDT  
The watchdog timer is both enabled and reset by writing 0xA5 to the WDTCN register. The user's applica-  
tion software should include periodic writes of 0xA5 to WDTCN as needed to prevent a watchdog timer  
overflow. The WDT is enabled and reset as a result of any system reset.  
24.2. Disable WDT  
Writing 0xDE followed by 0xAD to the WDTCN register disables the WDT. The following code segment  
illustrates disabling the WDT:  
CLR EA  
; disable all interrupts  
MOV WDTCN,#0DEh ; disable software watchdog timer  
MOV WDTCN,#0ADh  
SETB EA  
; re-enable interrupts  
The writes of 0xDE and 0xAD must occur within 4 clock cycles of each other, or the disable operation is  
ignored. Interrupts should be disabled during this procedure to avoid delay between the two writes.  
24.3. Disable WDT Lockout  
Writing 0xFF to WDTCN locks out the disable feature. Once locked out, the disable operation is ignored  
until the next system reset. Writing 0xFF does not enable or reset the watchdog timer. Applications always  
intending to use the watchdog should write 0xFF to WDTCN in the initialization code.  
24.4. Setting WDT Interval  
WDTCN.[2:0] control the watchdog timeout interval. The interval is given by the following equation:  
4^(3+WDTCN[2-0]) x Tsysclk ;where Tsysclk is the system clock period.  
For a 3 MHz system clock, this provides an interval range of 0.021 to 349.5 ms. WDTCN.7 must be logic 0  
when setting this interval. Reading WDTCN returns the programmed interval. WDTCN.[2:0] reads 111b  
after a system reset.

25. Oscillators and Clock Selection  
C8051F70x/71x devices include a programmable internal high-frequency oscillator and an external oscilla-  
tor drive circuit. The internal high-frequency oscillator can be enabled/disabled and calibrated using the  
OSCICN and OSCICL registers, as shown in Figure 25.1. The system clock can be sourced by the exter-  
nal oscillator circuit or the internal oscillator (default). The internal oscillator offers a selectable post-scaling  
feature, which is initially set to divide the clock by 8.

25.1. System Clock Selection  
The system clock source for the MCU can be selected using the CLKSEL register. The clock selected as  
the system clock can be divided by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128. When switching between two clock divide  
values, the transition may take up to 128 cycles of the undivided clock source. The CLKRDY flag can be  
polled to determine when the new clock divide value has been applied. The clock divider must be set to  
"divide by 1" when entering Suspend mode. The system clock source may also be switched on-the-fly. The  
switchover takes effect after one clock period of the slower oscillator.

25.2. Programmable Internal High-Frequency (H-F) Oscillator  
All C8051F70x/71x devices include a programmable internal high-frequency oscillator that defaults as the  
system clock after a system reset. The internal oscillator period can be adjusted via the OSCICL register  
as defined by SFR Definition 25.2.  
On C8051F70x/71x devices, OSCICL is factory calibrated to obtain a 24.5 MHz base frequency.  
The internal oscillator output frequency may be divided by 1, 2, 4, or 8, as defined by the IFCN bits in reg-  
ister OSCICN. The divide value defaults to 8 following a reset.  
The precision oscillator supports a spread spectrum mode which modulates the output frequency in order  
to reduce the EMI generated by the system. When enabled (SSE = 1), the oscillator output frequency is  
modulated by a stepped triangle wave whose frequency is equal to the oscillator frequency divided by 384  
(63.8 kHz using the factory calibration). The maximum deviation from the center frequency is ±0.75%. The  
output frequency updates occur every 32 cycles and the step size is typically 0.25% of the center fre-  
quency.

25.3. External Oscillator Drive Circuit  
The external oscillator circuit may drive an external crystal, ceramic resonator, capacitor, or RC network. A  
CMOS clock may also provide a clock input. For a crystal or ceramic resonator configuration, the crys-  
tal/resonator must be wired across the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins as shown in Option 1 of Figure 25.1. A  
10 Mresistor also must be wired across the XTAL2 and XTAL1 pins for the crystal/resonator configura-  
tion. In RC, capacitor, or CMOS clock configuration, the clock source should be wired to the XTAL2 pin as  
shown in Option 2, 3, or 4 of Figure 25.1. The type of external oscillator must be selected in the OSCXCN  
register, and the frequency control bits (XFCN) must be selected appropriately (see SFR Definition 25.4).  
Important Note on External Oscillator Usage: Port pins must be configured when using the external  
oscillator circuit. When the external oscillator drive circuit is enabled in crystal/resonator mode, Port pins  
P0.2 and P0.3 are used as XTAL1 and XTAL2 respectively. When the external oscillator drive circuit is  
enabled in capacitor, RC, or CMOS clock mode, Port pin P0.3 is used as XTAL2. The Port I/O Crossbar  
should be configured to skip the Port pins used by the oscillator circuit; see Section “26.3. Priority Crossbar  
Decoder” on page 171 for Crossbar configuration. Additionally, when using the external oscillator circuit in  
crystal/resonator, capacitor, or RC mode, the associated Port pins should be configured as analog inputs.  
In CMOS clock mode, the associated pin should be configured as a digital input. See Section “26.4. Port  
I/O Initialization” on page 173 for details on Port input mode selection.

25.3.1. External Crystal Example  
If a crystal or ceramic resonator is used as an external oscillator source for the MCU, the circuit should be  
configured as shown in Figure 25.1, Option 1. The External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN)  
should be chosen from the Crystal column of the table in SFR Definition 25.4 (OSCXCN register). For  
example, an 11.0592 MHz crystal requires an XFCN setting of 111b and a 32.768 kHz Watch Crystal  
requires an XFCN setting of 001b. After an external 32.768 kHz oscillator is stabilized, the XFCN setting  
can be switched to 000 to save power. It is recommended to enable the missing clock detector before  
switching the system clock to any external oscillator source.  
When the crystal oscillator is first enabled, the oscillator amplitude detection circuit requires a settling time  
to achieve proper bias. Introducing a delay of 1 ms between enabling the oscillator and checking the  
XTLVLD bit will prevent a premature switch to the external oscillator as the system clock. Switching to the  
external oscillator before the crystal oscillator has stabilized can result in unpredictable behavior. The rec-  
ommended procedure is:  
1. Force XTAL1 and XTAL2 to a low state. This involves enabling the Crossbar and writing 0 to the port  
pins associated with XTAL1 and XTAL2.  
2. Configure XTAL1 and XTAL2 as analog inputs.  
3. Enable the external oscillator.  
4. Wait at least 1 ms.  
5. Poll for XTLVLD = 1.  
6. If desired, enable the Missing Clock Detector.  
7. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.  
Important Note on External Crystals: Crystal oscillator circuits are quite sensitive to PCB layout. The  
crystal should be placed as close as possible to the XTAL pins on the device. The traces should be as  
short as possible and shielded with ground plane from any other traces which could introduce noise or  
interference.  
The capacitors shown in the external crystal configuration provide the load capacitance required by the  
crystal for correct oscillation. These capacitors are "in series" as seen by the crystal and "in parallel" with  
the stray capacitance of the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins.  
Note: The desired load capacitance depends upon the crystal and the manufacturer. Please refer to the crystal data  
sheet when completing these calculations.  
For example, a tuning-fork crystal of 32.768 kHz with a recommended load capacitance of 12.5 pF should  
use the configuration shown in Figure 25.1, Option 1. The total value of the capacitors and the stray capac-  
itance of the XTAL pins should equal 25 pF. With a stray capacitance of 3 pF per pin, the 22 pF capacitors  
yield an equivalent capacitance of 12.5 pF across the crystal, as shown in Figure 25.2.

25.3.2. External RC Example  
If an RC network is used as an external oscillator source for the MCU, the circuit should be configured as  
shown in Figure 25.1, Option 2. The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however for very small  
capacitors, the total capacitance may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. To deter-  
mine the required External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register, first  
select the RC network value to produce the desired frequency of oscillation, according to Equation 25.1,  
where f = the frequency of oscillation in MHz, C = the capacitor value in pF, and R = the pull-up resistor  
value in k.  
Equation 25.1. RC Mode Oscillator Frequency  
f = 1.23 103  R C  
For example: If the frequency desired is 100 kHz, let R = 246 kand C = 50 pF:  
3
3
f = 1.23( 10 ) / RC = 1.23 ( 10 ) / [ 246 x 50 ] = 0.1 MHz = 100 kHz  
Referring to the table in SFR Definition 25.4, the required XFCN setting is 010b.

25.3.3. External Capacitor Example  
If a capacitor is used as an external oscillator for the MCU, the circuit should be configured as shown in  
Figure 25.1, Option 3. The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however for very small capacitors,  
the total capacitance may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. To determine the  
required External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register, select the capaci-  
tor to be used and find the frequency of oscillation according to Equation 25.2, where f = the frequency of  
oscillation in MHz, C = the capacitor value in pF, and V = the MCU power supply in Volts.  
DD  
Equation 25.2. C Mode Oscillator Frequency  
f = KF  R VDD  
For example: Assume V = 3.0 V and f = 150 kHz:  
DD  
f = KF / (C x VDD)  
0.150 MHz = KF / (C x 3.0)  
Since the frequency of roughly 150 kHz is desired, select the K Factor from the table in SFR Definition 25.4  
(OSCXCN) as KF = 22:  
0.150 MHz = 22 / (C x 3.0)  
C x 3.0 = 22 / 0.150 MHz  
C = 146.6 / 3.0 pF = 48.8 pF  
Therefore, the XFCN value to use in this example is 011b and C = 50 pF.

26. Port Input/Output  
Digital and analog resources are available through 64 I/O pins. Each of the Port pins P0.0-P2.7 can be  
defined as general-purpose I/O (GPIO), assigned to one of the internal digital resources, or assigned to an  
analog function as shown in Figure 26.4. The designer has complete control over which functions are  
assigned, limited only by the number of physical I/O pins. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved  
through the use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. The state of a Port I/O pin can always be read in the corre-  
sponding Port latch, regardless of the Crossbar settings.  
The Crossbar assigns the selected internal digital resources to the I/O pins based on the Priority Decoder  
(Figure 26.4 and Figure 26.5). The registers XBR0 and XBR1, defined in SFR Definition 26.1 and SFR  
Definition 26.2, are used to select internal digital functions.  
All Port I/Os are tolerant of voltages up to 2 V above the V supply (refer to Figure 26.2 for the Port cell  
DD  
circuit). The Port I/O cells are configured as either push-pull or open-drain in the Port Output Mode regis-  
ters (PnMDOUT, where n = 0,1). Complete Electrical Specifications for Port I/O are given in Section  
“7. Electrical Characteristics” on page 40.

26.1. Port I/O Modes of Operation  
Port pins P0.0 - P6.5 use the Port I/O cell shown in Figure 26.2. Each Port I/O cell can be configured by  
software for analog I/O or digital I/O using the PnMDIN registers. On reset, all Port I/O cells default to a  
high impedance state with weak pull-ups enabled. Until the crossbar is enabled (XBARE = 1), both the  
high and low port I/O drive circuits are explicitly disabled on all crossbar pins.  
26.1.1. Port Pins Configured for Analog I/O  
Any pins to be used as Comparator or ADC input, Capacitive Sense input, external oscillator input/output,  
VREF output, or AGND connection should be configured for analog I/O (PnMDIN.n = 1). When a pin is  
configured for analog I/O, its weak pullup, digital driver, and digital receiver are disabled. Port pins config-  
ured for analog I/O will always read back a value of 0.  
Configuring pins as analog I/O saves power and isolates the Port pin from digital interference. Port pins  
configured as digital I/O may still be used by analog peripherals; however, this practice is not recom-  
mended and may result in measurement errors.  
26.1.2. Port Pins Configured For Digital I/O  
Any pins to be used by digital peripherals (UART, SPI, SMBus, etc.), external event trigger functions, or as  
GPIO should be configured as digital I/O (PnMDIN.n = 1). For digital I/O pins, one of two output modes  
(push-pull or open-drain) must be selected using the PnMDOUT registers.  
Push-pull outputs (PnMDOUT.n = 1) drive the Port pad to the VDD or GND supply rails based on the out-  
put logic value of the Port pin. Open-drain outputs have the high side driver disabled; therefore, they only  
drive the Port pad to GND when the output logic value is 0 and become high impedance inputs (both high  
low drivers turned off) when the output logic value is 1.  
When a digital I/O cell is placed in the high impedance state, a weak pull-up transistor pulls the Port pad to  
the VDD supply voltage to ensure the digital input is at a defined logic state. Weak pull-ups are disabled  
when the I/O cell is driven to GND to minimize power consumption, and they may be globally disabled by  
setting WEAKPUD to 1. The user should ensure that digital I/O are always internally or externally pulled or  
driven to a valid logic state to minimize power consumption. Port pins configured for digital I/O always read  
back the logic state of the Port pad, regardless of the output logic value of the Port pin.

26.1.3. Interfacing Port I/O to 5 V Logic  
All Port I/O configured for digital, open-drain operation are capable of interfacing to digital logic operating at  
a supply voltage up to 2 V higher than VDD and less than 5.25 V. An external pull-up resistor to the higher  
supply voltage is typically required for most systems.  
Important Note: In a multi-voltage interface, the external pull-up resistor should be sized to allow a current  
of at least 150 µA to flow into the Port pin when the supply voltage is between (VDD + 0. 6V) and  
(VDD + 1.0V). Once the Port pin voltage increases beyond this range, the current flowing into the Port pin  
is minimal. Figure 26.3 shows the input current characteristics of port pins driven above VDD. The port pin  
requires 150 µA peak overdrive current when its voltage reaches approximately (VDD + 0.7 V).

26.1.4. Increasing Port I/O Drive Strength  
Port I/O output drivers support a high and low drive strength; the default is low drive strength. The drive  
strength of a Port I/O can be configured using the PnDRV registers. See Section “7. Electrical Characteris-  
tics” on page 40 for the difference in output drive strength between the two modes.  
26.2. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Analog and Digital Functions  
Port I/O pins P0.0–P2.7 can be assigned to various analog, digital, and external interrupt functions. The  
Port pins assigned to analog functions should be configured for analog I/O, and Port pins assigned to digi-  
tal or external interrupt functions should be configured for digital I/O.  
26.2.1. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Analog Functions  
Table 26.1 shows all available analog functions that require Port I/O assignments. Port pins selected for  
these analog functions should have their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set to 1. This reserves the pin  
for use by the analog function and does not allow it to be claimed by the Crossbar. Table 26.1 shows the  
potential mapping of Port I/O to each analog function.

26.2.2. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Digital Functions  
Any Port pins not assigned to analog functions may be assigned to digital functions or used as GPIO. Most  
digital functions rely on the Crossbar for pin assignment; however, some digital functions bypass the  
Crossbar in a manner similar to the analog functions listed above. Port pins used by these digital func-  
tions and any Port pins selected for use as GPIO should have their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set  
to 1. Table 26.2 shows all available digital functions and the potential mapping of Port I/O to each digital  
function.

pins and will function on both GPIO pins (PnSKIP = 1) and pins in use by the Crossbar (PnSKIP = 0).  
External event trigger functions cannot be used on pins configured for analog I/O. Table 26.3 shows all  
available external event trigger functions.

26.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder  
The Priority Crossbar Decoder (Figure 26.4) assigns a priority to each I/O function, starting at the top with  
UART0. When a digital resource is selected, the least-significant unassigned Port pin is assigned to that  
resource (excluding UART0, which is always at pins 4 and 5). If a Port pin is assigned, the Crossbar skips  
that pin when assigning the next selected resource. Additionally, the Crossbar will skip Port pins whose  
associated bits in the PnSKIP registers are set. The PnSKIP registers allow software to skip Port pins that  
are to be used for analog input, dedicated functions, or GPIO.  
Important Note on Crossbar Configuration: If a Port pin is claimed by a peripheral without use of the  
Crossbar, its corresponding PnSKIP bit should be set. This applies to P0.0 if VREF is used, P0.1 if AGND  
is used, P0.3 and/or P0.2 if the external oscillator circuit is enabled, P0.6 if the ADC is configured to use  
the external conversion start signal (CNVSTR), and any selected ADC or Comparator inputs. The Cross-  
bar skips selected pins as if they were already assigned, and moves to the next unassigned pin.  
Figure 26.5 shows the Crossbar Decoder priority with pins P0.2 and P0.6 skipped (P0SKIP = 0x44).

Notes:  
SF Signals  
1. NSS is only pinned out in 4-wire SPI Mode  
Special Function Signals are not assigned by the crossbar.  
When these signals are enabled, the CrossBar must be  
manually configured to skip their corresponding port pins.  
Figure 26.5. Crossbar Priority Decoder Example  
Registers XBR0 and XBR1 are used to assign the digital I/O resources to the physical I/O Port pins. When  
the SMBus is selected, the Crossbar assigns both pins associated with the SMBus (SDA and SCL); when  
the UART is selected, the Crossbar assigns both pins associated with the UART (TX and RX). UART0 pin  
assignments are fixed for bootloading purposes: UART TX0 is always assigned to P0.4; UART RX0 is  
always assigned to P0.5. Standard Port I/Os appear contiguously after the prioritized functions have been  
assigned.  
Important Note: The SPI can be operated in either 3-wire or 4-wire modes, pending the state of the  
NSSMD1–NSSMD0 bits in register SPI0CN. According to the SPI mode, the NSS signal may or may not  
be routed to a Port pin.

26.4. Port I/O Initialization  
Port I/O initialization consists of the following steps:  
1. Select the input mode (analog or digital) for all Port pins, using the Port Input Mode register (PnMDIN).  
2. Select the output mode (open-drain or push-pull) for all Port pins, using the Port Output Mode register  
(PnMDOUT).  
3. Select any pins to be skipped by the I/O Crossbar using the Port Skip registers (PnSKIP).  
4. Assign Port pins to desired peripherals.  
5. Enable the Crossbar (XBARE = 1).  
All Port pins must be configured as either analog or digital inputs. Any pins to be used as Comparator or  
ADC inputs should be configured as an analog inputs. When a pin is configured as an analog input, its  
weak pullup, digital driver, and digital receiver are disabled. This process saves power and reduces noise  
on the analog input. Pins configured as digital inputs may still be used by analog peripherals; however this  
practice is not recommended.  
Additionally, all analog input pins should be configured to be skipped by the Crossbar (accomplished by  
setting the associated bits in PnSKIP). Port input mode is set in the PnMDIN register, where a 1 indicates a  
digital input, and a 0 indicates an analog input. All pins default to digital inputs on reset. See SFR Definition  
26.8 for the PnMDIN register details.  
The output driver characteristics of the I/O pins are defined using the Port Output Mode registers (PnMD-  
OUT). Each Port Output driver can be configured as either open drain or push-pull. This selection is  
required even for the digital resources selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic. The only  
exception to this is the SMBus (SDA, SCL) pins, which are configured as open-drain regardless of the  
PnMDOUT settings. When the WEAKPUD bit in XBR1 is 0, a weak pullup is enabled for all Port I/O config-  
ured as open-drain. WEAKPUD does not affect the push-pull Port I/O. Furthermore, the weak pullup is  
turned off on an output that is driving a 0 to avoid unnecessary power dissipation.  
Registers XBR0 and XBR1 must be loaded with the appropriate values to select the digital I/O functions  
required by the design. Setting the XBARE bit in XBR1 to 1 enables the Crossbar. Until the Crossbar is  
enabled, the external pins remain as standard Port I/O (in input mode), regardless of the XBRn Register  
settings. For given XBRn Register settings, one can determine the I/O pin-out using the Priority Decode  
Table; as an alternative, the Configuration Wizard utility of the Silicon Labs IDE software will determine the  
Port I/O pin-assignments based on the XBRn Register settings.  
The Crossbar must be enabled to use Port pins as standard Port I/O in output mode. Port output drivers  
are disabled while the Crossbar is disabled.

26.5. Port Match  
Port match functionality allows system events to be triggered by a logic value change on P0 or P1. A soft-  
ware controlled value stored in the PnMATCH registers specifies the expected or normal logic values of P0  
and P1. A Port mismatch event occurs if the logic levels of the Port’s input pins no longer match the soft-  
ware controlled value. This allows Software to be notified if a certain change or pattern occurs on P0 or P1  
input pins regardless of the XBRn settings.  
The PnMASK registers can be used to individually select which P0 and P1 pins should be compared  
against the PnMATCH registers. A Port mismatch event is generated if (P0 & P0MASK) does not equal  
(P0MATCH & P0MASK) or if (P1 & P1MASK) does not equal (P1MATCH & P1MASK).  
A Port mismatch event may be used to generate an interrupt or wake the device from a low power mode,  
such as IDLE or SUSPEND. See the Interrupts and Power Options chapters for more details on interrupt  
and wake-up sources.

26.6. Special Function Registers for Accessing and Configuring Port I/O  
All Port I/O are accessed through corresponding special function registers (SFRs) that are both byte  
addressable and bit addressable. When writing to a Port, the value written to the SFR is latched to main-  
tain the output data value at each pin. When reading, the logic levels of the Port's input pins are returned  
regardless of the XBRn settings (i.e., even when the pin is assigned to another signal by the Crossbar, the  
Port register can always read its corresponding Port I/O pin). The exception to this is the execution of the  
read-modify-write instructions that target a Port Latch register as the destination. The read-modify-write  
instructions when operating on a Port SFR are the following: ANL, ORL, XRL, JBC, CPL, INC, DEC, DJNZ  
and MOV, CLR or SETB, when the destination is an individual bit in a Port SFR. For these instructions, the  
value of the latch register (not the pin) is read, modified, and written back to the SFR.  
Each Port has a corresponding PnSKIP register which allows its individual Port pins to be assigned to dig-  
ital functions or skipped by the Crossbar. All Port pins used for analog functions, GPIO, or dedicated digital  
functions such as the EMIF should have their PnSKIP bit set to 1.  
The Port input mode of the I/O pins is defined using the Port Input Mode registers (PnMDIN). Each Port  
cell can be configured for analog or digital I/O. This selection is required even for the digital resources  
selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic.  
The output driver characteristics of the I/O pins are defined using the Port Output Mode registers (PnMD-  
OUT). Each Port Output driver can be configured as either open drain or push-pull. This selection is  
required even for the digital resources selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic. The only  
exception to this is the SMBus (SDA, SCL) pins, which are configured as open-drain regardless of the  
PnMDOUT settings.

27. Cyclic Redundancy Check Unit (CRC0)  
C8051F70x/71x devices include a cyclic redundancy check unit (CRC0) that can perform a CRC using a  
16-bit or 32-bit polynomial. CRC0 accepts a stream of 8-bit data written to the CRC0IN register. CRC0  
posts the 16-bit or 32-bit result to an internal register. The internal result register may be accessed indi-  
rectly using the CRC0PNT bits and CRC0DAT register, as shown in Figure 27.1. CRC0 also has a bit  
reverse register for quick data manipulation.

27.1. 16-bit CRC Algorithm  
The C8051F70x/71x CRC unit calculates the 16-bit CRC MSB-first, using a poly of 0x1021. The following  
describes the 16-bit CRC algorithm performed by the hardware:  
1. XOR the most-significant byte of the current CRC result with the input byte. If this is the first iteration of  
the CRC unit, the current CRC result will be the set initial value (0x0000 or 0xFFFF).  
2. If the MSB of the CRC result is set, left-shift the CRC result, and then XOR the CRC result with the  
polynomial (0x1021).  
3. If the MSB of the CRC result is not set, left-shift the CRC result.  
4. Repeat at Step 2 for the number of input bits (8).  
For example, the 16-bit C8051F70x/71x CRC algorithm can be described by the following code:  
unsigned short UpdateCRC (unsigned short CRC_acc, unsigned char CRC_input){  
unsigned char i;  
// loop counter  
#define POLY 0x1021  
// Create the CRC "dividend" for polynomial arithmetic (binary arithmetic  
// with no carries)  
CRC_acc = CRC_acc ^ (CRC_input << 8);  
// "Divide" the poly into the dividend using CRC XOR subtraction  
// CRC_acc holds the "remainder" of each divide  
// Only complete this division for 8 bits since input is 1 byte  
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)  
{
// Check if the MSB is set (if MSB is 1, then the POLY can "divide"  
// into the "dividend")  
if ((CRC_acc & 0x8000) == 0x8000)  
{
// if so, shift the CRC value, and XOR "subtract" the poly  
CRC_acc = CRC_acc << 1;  
CRC_acc ^= POLY;  
}
else  
{
// if not, just shift the CRC value  
CRC_acc = CRC_acc << 1;  
}
}
return CRC_acc; // Return the final remainder (CRC value)  
}
Table 27.1 lists example input values and the associated outputs using the 16-bit C8051F70x/71x CRC  
algorithm (an initial value of 0xFFFF is used):

27.2. 32-bit CRC Algorithm  
The C8051F70x/71x CRC unit calculates the 32-bit CRC using a poly of 0x04C11DB7. The CRC-32 algo-  
rithm is "reflected", meaning that all of the input bytes and the final 32-bit output are bit-reversed in the pro-  
cessing engine. The following is a description of a simplified CRC algorithm that produces results identical  
to the hardware:  
1. XOR the least-significant byte of the current CRC result with the input byte. If this is the first iteration of  
the CRC unit, the current CRC result will be the set initial value (0x00000000 or 0xFFFFFFFF).  
2. Right-shift the CRC result.  
3. If the LSB of the CRC result is set, XOR the CRC result with the reflected polynomial (0xEDB88320).  
4. Repeat at Step 2 for the number of input bits (8).  
For example, the 32-bit C8051F70x/71x CRC algorithm can be described by the following code:  
unsigned long UpdateCRC (unsigned long CRC_acc, unsigned char CRC_input){  
unsigned char i; // loop counter  
#define POLY 0xEDB88320 // bit-reversed version of the poly 0x04C11DB7  
// Create the CRC "dividend" for polynomial arithmetic (binary arithmetic  
// with no carries)  
CRC_acc = CRC_acc ^ CRC_input;  
// "Divide" the poly into the dividend using CRC XOR subtraction  
// CRC_acc holds the "remainder" of each divide  
// Only complete this division for 8 bits since input is 1 byte  
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)  
{
// Check if the MSB is set (if MSB is 1, then the POLY can "divide"  
// into the "dividend")  
if ((CRC_acc & 0x00000001) == 0x00000001)  
{
// if so, shift the CRC value, and XOR "subtract" the poly  
CRC_acc = CRC_acc >> 1;  
CRC_acc ^= POLY;  
}
else  
{
// if not, just shift the CRC value  
CRC_acc = CRC_acc >> 1;  
}
}
return CRC_acc; // Return the final remainder (CRC value)  
}

27.3. Preparing for a CRC Calculation  
To prepare CRC0 for a CRC calculation, software should select the desired polynomial and set the initial  
value of the result. Two polynomials are available: 0x1021 (16-bit) and 0x04C11DB7 (32-bit). The CRC0  
result may be initialized to one of two values: 0x00000000 or 0xFFFFFFFF. The following steps can be  
used to initialize CRC0.  
1. Select a polynomial (Set CRC0SEL to 0 for 32-bit or 1 for 16-bit).  
2. Select the initial result value (Set CRC0VAL to 0 for 0x00000000 or 1 for 0xFFFFFFFF).  
3. Set the result to its initial value (Write 1 to CRC0INIT).  
27.4. Performing a CRC Calculation  
Once CRC0 is initialized, the input data stream is sequentially written to CRC0IN, one byte at a time. The  
CRC0 result is automatically updated after each byte is written. The CRC engine may also be configured to  
automatically perform a CRC on one or more Flash sectors. The following steps can be used to automati-  
cally perform a CRC on Flash memory.  
1. Prepare CRC0 for a CRC calculation as shown above.  
2. Write the index of the starting page to CRC0AUTO.  
3. Set the AUTOEN bit in CRC0AUTO.  
4. Write the number of Flash sectors to perform in the CRC calculation to CRC0CNT.  
Note: Each Flash sector is 512 bytes.  
5. Write any value to CRC0CN (or OR its contents with 0x00) to initiate the CRC calculation. The CPU will  
not execute code any additional code until the CRC operation completes.  
6. Clear the AUTOEN bit in CRC0AUTO.  
7. Read the CRC result using the procedure below.  
27.5. Accessing the CRC0 Result  
The internal CRC0 result is 32-bits (CRC0SEL = 0b) or 16-bits (CRC0SEL = 1b). The CRC0PNT bits  
select the byte that is targeted by read and write operations on CRC0DAT and increment after each read or  
write. The calculation result will remain in the internal CR0 result register until it is set, overwritten, or addi-  
tional data is written to CRC0IN.

These bits specify the number of Flash sectors to include when performing an  
automatic CRC calculation. The base address of the last flash sector included in  
the automatic CRC calculation is equal to (CRC0ST + CRC0CNT) x 512.  
27.6. CRC0 Bit Reverse Feature  
CRC0 includes hardware to reverse the bit order of each bit in a byte as shown in Figure 27.1. Each byte  
of data written to CRC0FLIP is read back bit reversed. For example, if 0xC0 is written to CRC0FLIP, the  
data read back is 0x03. Bit reversal is a useful mathematical function used in algorithms such as the FFT.

28. SMBus  
The SMBus I/O interface is a two-wire, bi-directional serial bus. The SMBus is compliant with the System  
2
Management Bus Specification, version 1.1, and compatible with the I C serial bus. Reads and writes to  
the interface by the system controller are byte oriented with the SMBus interface autonomously controlling  
the serial transfer of the data. Data can be transferred at up to 1/20th of the system clock as a master or  
slave (this can be faster than allowed by the SMBus specification, depending on the system clock used). A  
method of extending the clock-low duration is available to accommodate devices with different speed  
capabilities on the same bus.  
The SMBus interface may operate as a master and/or slave, and may function on a bus with multiple mas-  
ters. The SMBus provides control of SDA (serial data), SCL (serial clock) generation and synchronization,  
arbitration logic, and START/STOP control and generation. The SMBus peripheral can be fully driven by  
software (i.e., software accepts/rejects slave addresses, and generates ACKs), or hardware slave address  
recognition and automatic ACK generation can be enabled to minimize software overhead. A block dia-  
gram of the SMBus peripheral and the associated SFRs is shown in Figure 28.1.

28.2. SMBus Configuration  
Figure 28.2 shows a typical SMBus configuration. The SMBus specification allows any recessive voltage  
between 3.0 V and 5.0 V; different devices on the bus may operate at different voltage levels. The bi-direc-  
tional SCL (serial clock) and SDA (serial data) lines must be connected to a positive power supply voltage  
through a pullup resistor or similar circuit. Every device connected to the bus must have an open-drain or  
open-collector output for both the SCL and SDA lines, so that both are pulled high (recessive state) when  
the bus is free. The maximum number of devices on the bus is limited only by the requirement that the rise  
and fall times on the bus not exceed 300 ns and 1000 ns, respectively.

28.3. SMBus Operation  
Two types of data transfers are possible: data transfers from a master transmitter to an addressed slave  
receiver (WRITE), and data transfers from an addressed slave transmitter to a master receiver (READ).  
The master device initiates both types of data transfers and provides the serial clock pulses on SCL. The  
SMBus interface may operate as a master or a slave, and multiple master devices on the same bus are  
supported. If two or more masters attempt to initiate a data transfer simultaneously, an arbitration scheme  
is employed with a single master always winning the arbitration. It is not necessary to specify one device  
as the Master in a system; any device who transmits a START and a slave address becomes the master  
for the duration of that transfer.  
A typical SMBus transaction consists of a START condition followed by an address byte (Bits7–1: 7-bit  
slave address; Bit0: R/W direction bit), one or more bytes of data, and a STOP condition. Bytes that are  
received (by a master or slave) are acknowledged (ACK) with a low SDA during a high SCL (see  
Figure 28.3). If the receiving device does not ACK, the transmitting device will read a NACK (not acknowl-  
edge), which is a high SDA during a high SCL.  
The direction bit (R/W) occupies the least-significant bit position of the address byte. The direction bit is set  
to logic 1 to indicate a "READ" operation and cleared to logic 0 to indicate a "WRITE" operation.  
Rev. 0.2  
203  
C8051F70x/71x  
All transactions are initiated by a master, with one or more addressed slave devices as the target. The  
master generates the START condition and then transmits the slave address and direction bit. If the trans-  
action is a WRITE operation from the master to the slave, the master transmits the data a byte at a time  
waiting for an ACK from the slave at the end of each byte. For READ operations, the slave transmits the  
data waiting for an ACK from the master at the end of each byte. At the end of the data transfer, the master  
generates a STOP condition to terminate the transaction and free the bus. Figure 28.3 illustrates a typical  
SMBus transaction.

28.3.1. Transmitter Vs. Receiver  
On the SMBus communications interface, a device is the “transmitter” when it is sending an address or  
data byte to another device on the bus. A device is a “receiver” when an address or data byte is being sent  
to it from another device on the bus. The transmitter controls the SDA line during the address or data byte.  
After each byte of address or data information is sent by the transmitter, the receiver sends an ACK or  
NACK bit during the ACK phase of the transfer, during which time the receiver controls the SDA line.  
28.3.2. Arbitration  
A master may start a transfer only if the bus is free. The bus is free after a STOP condition or after the SCL  
and SDA lines remain high for a specified time (see Section “28.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout” on  
page 205). In the event that two or more devices attempt to begin a transfer at the same time, an arbitra-  
tion scheme is employed to force one master to give up the bus. The master devices continue transmitting  
until one attempts a HIGH while the other transmits a LOW. Since the bus is open-drain, the bus will be  
pulled LOW. The master attempting the HIGH will detect a LOW SDA and lose the arbitration. The winning  
master continues its transmission without interruption; the losing master becomes a slave and receives the  
rest of the transfer if addressed. This arbitration scheme is non-destructive: one device always wins, and  
no data is lost.  
28.3.3. Clock Low Extension  
SMBus provides a clock synchronization mechanism, similar to I2C, which allows devices with different  
speed capabilities to coexist on the bus. A clock-low extension is used during a transfer in order to allow  
slower slave devices to communicate with faster masters. The slave may temporarily hold the SCL line  
LOW to extend the clock low period, effectively decreasing the serial clock frequency.  
28.3.4. SCL Low Timeout  
If the SCL line is held low by a slave device on the bus, no further communication is possible. Furthermore,  
the master cannot force the SCL line high to correct the error condition. To solve this problem, the SMBus  
protocol specifies that devices participating in a transfer must detect any clock cycle held low longer than  
25 ms as a “timeout” condition. Devices that have detected the timeout condition must reset the communi-  
cation no later than 10 ms after detecting the timeout condition.  
204  
Rev. 0.2  
C8051F70x/71x  
When the SMBTOE bit in SMB0CF is set, Timer 3 is used to detect SCL low timeouts. Timer 3 is forced to  
reload when SCL is high, and allowed to count when SCL is low. With Timer 3 enabled and configured to  
overflow after 25 ms (and SMBTOE set), the Timer 3 interrupt service routine can be used to reset (disable  
and re-enable) the SMBus in the event of an SCL low timeout.  
28.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout  
The SMBus specification stipulates that if the SCL and SDA lines remain high for more that 50 µs, the bus  
is designated as free. When the SMBFTE bit in SMB0CF is set, the bus will be considered free if SCL and  
SDA remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (as defined by the timer configured for the  
SMBus clock source). If the SMBus is waiting to generate a Master START, the START will be generated  
following this timeout. A clock source is required for free timeout detection, even in a slave-only implemen-  
tation.  
28.4. Using the SMBus  
The SMBus can operate in both Master and Slave modes. The interface provides timing and shifting con-  
trol for serial transfers; higher level protocol is determined by user software. The SMBus interface provides  
the following application-independent features:  
Byte-wise serial data transfers  
Clock signal generation on SCL (Master Mode only) and SDA data synchronization  
Timeout/bus error recognition, as defined by the SMB0CF configuration register  
START/STOP timing, detection, and generation  
Bus arbitration  
Interrupt generation  
Status information  
Optional hardware recognition of slave address and automatic acknowledgement of address/data  
SMBus interrupts are generated for each data byte or slave address that is transferred. When hardware  
acknowledgement is disabled, the point at which the interrupt is generated depends on whether the hard-  
ware is acting as a data transmitter or receiver. When a transmitter (i.e., sending address/data, receiving  
an ACK), this interrupt is generated after the ACK cycle so that software may read the received ACK value;  
when receiving data (i.e., receiving address/data, sending an ACK), this interrupt is generated before the  
ACK cycle so that software may define the outgoing ACK value. If hardware acknowledgement is enabled,  
these interrupts are always generated after the ACK cycle. See Section 28.5 for more details on transmis-  
sion sequences.  
Interrupts are also generated to indicate the beginning of a transfer when a master (START generated), or  
the end of a transfer when a slave (STOP detected). Software should read the SMB0CN (SMBus Control  
register) to find the cause of the SMBus interrupt. The SMB0CN register is described in Section 28.4.2;  
Table 28.5 provides a quick SMB0CN decoding reference.  
28.4.1. SMBus Configuration Register  
The SMBus Configuration register (SMB0CF) is used to enable the SMBus Master and/or Slave modes,  
select the SMBus clock source, and select the SMBus timing and timeout options. When the ENSMB bit is  
set, the SMBus is enabled for all master and slave events. Slave events may be disabled by setting the  
INH bit. With slave events inhibited, the SMBus interface will still monitor the SCL and SDA pins; however,  
the interface will NACK all received addresses and will not generate any slave interrupts. When the INH bit  
is set, all slave events will be inhibited following the next START (interrupts will continue for the duration of  
the current transfer).

clock source may be shared by other peripherals so long as the timer is left running at all times. For exam-  
ple, Timer 1 overflows may generate the SMBus and UART baud rates simultaneously. Timer configuration

Setting the EXTHOLD bit extends the minimum setup and hold times for the SDA line. The minimum SDA  
setup time defines the absolute minimum time that SDA is stable before SCL transitions from low-to-high.  
The minimum SDA hold time defines the absolute minimum time that the current SDA value remains stable

meet the SMBus Specification requirements of 250 ns and 300 ns, respectively. Table 28.2 shows the min-  
imum setup and hold times for the two EXTHOLD settings. Setup and hold time extensions are typically  
necessary when SYSCLK is above 10 MHz.

With the SMBTOE bit set, Timer 3 should be configured to overflow after 25 ms in order to detect SCL low  
timeouts (see Section “28.3.4. SCL Low Timeout” on page 204). The SMBus interface will force Timer 3 to  
reload while SCL is high, and allow Timer 3 to count when SCL is low. The Timer 3 interrupt service routine  
should be used to reset SMBus communication by disabling and re-enabling the SMBus.  
SMBus Free Timeout detection can be enabled by setting the SMBFTE bit. When this bit is set, the bus will  
be considered free if SDA and SCL remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (see  
Figure 28.4).

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

28.4.3. Hardware Slave Address Recognition  
The SMBus hardware has the capability to automatically recognize incoming slave addresses and send an  
ACK without software intervention. Automatic slave address recognition is enabled by setting the EHACK  
bit in register SMB0ADM to 1. This will enable both automatic slave address recognition and automatic  
hardware ACK generation for received bytes (as a master or slave). More detail on automatic hardware  
ACK generation can be found in Section 28.4.2.2.  
The registers used to define which address(es) are recognized by the hardware are the SMBus Slave  
Address register (SFR Definition 28.3) and the SMBus Slave Address Mask register (SFR Definition 28.4).  
A single address or range of addresses (including the General Call Address 0x00) can be specified using  
these two registers. The most-significant seven bits of the two registers are used to define which  
addresses will be ACKed. A 1 in bit positions of the slave address mask SLVM[6:0] enable a comparison  
between the received slave address and the hardware’s slave address SLV[6:0] for those bits. A 0 in a bit  
Rev. 0.2

C8051F70x/71x  
of the slave address mask means that bit will be treated as a “don’t care” for comparison purposes. In this  
case, either a 1 or a 0 value are acceptable on the incoming slave address. Additionally, if the GC bit in  
register SMB0ADR is set to 1, hardware will recognize the General Call Address (0x00). Table 28.4 shows  
some example parameter settings and the slave addresses that will be recognized by hardware under  
those conditions.

28.4.4. Data Register  
The SMBus Data register SMB0DAT holds a byte of serial data to be transmitted or one that has just been  
received. Software may safely read or write to the data register when the SI flag is set. Software should not  
attempt to access the SMB0DAT register when the SMBus is enabled and the SI flag is cleared to logic 0,  
as the interface may be in the process of shifting a byte of data into or out of the register.  
Data in SMB0DAT is always shifted out MSB first. After a byte has been received, the first bit of received  
data is located at the MSB of SMB0DAT. While data is being shifted out, data on the bus is simultaneously  
being shifted in. SMB0DAT always contains the last data byte present on the bus. In the event of lost arbi-  
tration, the transition from master transmitter to slave receiver is made with the correct data or address in  
SMB0DAT.

7:0 SMB0DAT[7:0] SMBus Data.  
Function  
The SMB0DAT register contains a byte of data to be transmitted on the SMBus  
serial interface or a byte that has just been received on the SMBus serial interface.  
The CPU can read from or write to this register whenever the SI serial interrupt flag  
(SMB0CN.0) is set to logic 1. The serial data in the register remains stable as long  
as the SI flag is set. When the SI flag is not set, the system may be in the process  
of shifting data in/out and the CPU should not attempt to access this register.

28.5. SMBus Transfer Modes  
The SMBus interface may be configured to operate as master and/or slave. At any particular time, it will be  
operating in one of the following four modes: Master Transmitter, Master Receiver, Slave Transmitter, or  
Slave Receiver. The SMBus interface enters Master Mode any time a START is generated, and remains in  
Master Mode until it loses an arbitration or generates a STOP. An SMBus interrupt is generated at the end  
of all SMBus byte frames. The position of the ACK interrupt when operating as a receiver depends on  
whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. As a receiver, the interrupt for an ACK occurs before the  
ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is  
enabled. As a transmitter, interrupts occur after the ACK, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation  
is enabled or not.  
28.5.1. Write Sequence (Master)  
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The master in this transfer will be  
a transmitter during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. The SMBus interface gener-  
ates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the  
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 0 (WRITE). The master then trans-  
mits one or more bytes of serial data. After each byte is transmitted, an acknowledge bit is generated by  
the slave. The transfer is ended when the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. The interface will switch  
to Master Receiver Mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a Master Transmitter interrupt. Figure 28.5  
shows a typical master write sequence. Two transmit data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes  
may be transmitted. Notice that all of the “data byte transferred” interrupts occur after the ACK cycle in this  
mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.

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

28.5.3. Write Sequence (Slave)  
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The slave in this transfer will be  
a receiver during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. When slave events are enabled  
(INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode when a START followed by a slave address and direc-  
tion bit (WRITE in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation is disabled, upon entering Slave  
Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The software must respond to the  
received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address with a NACK. If hardware ACK  
generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address which matches the criteria set  
up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK cycle.  
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the  
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are  
received.  
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each  
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.  
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,  
and then post the interrupt. It is important to note that the appropriate ACK or NACK value should be  
set up by the software prior to receiving the byte when hardware ACK generation is enabled.  
The interface exits Slave Receiver Mode after receiving a STOP. The interface will switch to Slave Trans-  
mitter Mode if SMB0DAT is written while an active Slave Receiver. Figure 28.7 shows a typical slave write  
sequence. Two received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. Notice that  
the ‘data byte transferred’ interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether hard-  
ware ACK generation is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation dis-  
abled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

28.5.4. Read Sequence (Slave)  
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The slave in this transfer will  
be a receiver during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. When slave events are  
enabled (INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode (to receive the slave address) when a START  
followed by a slave address and direction bit (READ in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation  
is disabled, upon entering Slave Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The  
software must respond to the received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address  
with a NACK. If hardware ACK generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address  
which matches the criteria set up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK  
cycle.  
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the  
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are trans-  
mitted. If the received slave address is acknowledged, data should be written to SMB0DAT to be transmit-  
ted. The interface enters slave transmitter mode, and transmits one or more bytes of data. After each byte  
is transmitted, the master sends an acknowledge bit; if the acknowledge bit is an ACK, SMB0DAT should  
be written with the next data byte. If the acknowledge bit is a NACK, SMB0DAT should not be written to  
before SI is cleared (an error condition may be generated if SMB0DAT is written following a received  
NACK while in slave transmitter mode). The interface exits slave transmitter mode after receiving a STOP.  
The interface will switch to slave receiver mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a Slave Transmitter  
interrupt. Figure 28.8 shows a typical slave read sequence. Two transmitted data bytes are shown, though  
any number of bytes may be transmitted. Notice that all of the “data byte transferred” interrupts occur after  
the ACK cycle in this mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.

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

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

29.1. Signal Descriptions  
The four signals used by SPI0 (MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS) are described below.  
29.1.1. Master Out, Slave In (MOSI)  
The master-out, slave-in (MOSI) signal is an output from a master device and an input to slave devices. It  
is used to serially transfer data from the master to the slave. This signal is an output when SPI0 is operat-  
ing as a master and an input when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit  
first. When configured as a master, MOSI is driven by the MSB of the shift register in both 3- and 4-wire  
mode.  
29.1.2. Master In, Slave Out (MISO)  
The master-in, slave-out (MISO) signal is an output from a slave device and an input to the master device.  
It is used to serially transfer data from the slave to the master. This signal is an input when SPI0 is operat-  
ing as a master and an output when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant bit  
first. The MISO pin is placed in a high-impedance state when the SPI module is disabled and when the SPI  
operates in 4-wire mode as a slave that is not selected. When acting as a slave in 3-wire mode, MISO is  
always driven by the MSB of the shift register.  
29.1.3. Serial Clock (SCK)  
The serial clock (SCK) signal is an output from the master device and an input to slave devices. It is used  
to synchronize the transfer of data between the master and slave on the MOSI and MISO lines. SPI0 gen-  
erates this signal when operating as a master. The SCK signal is ignored by a SPI slave when the slave is  
not selected (NSS = 1) in 4-wire slave mode.  
29.1.4. Slave Select (NSS)  
The function of the slave-select (NSS) signal is dependent on the setting of the NSSMD1 and NSSMD0  
bits in the SPI0CN register. There are three possible modes that can be selected with these bits:  
1. NSSMD[1:0] = 00: 3-Wire Master or 3-Wire Slave Mode: SPI0 operates in 3-wire mode, and NSS is  
disabled. When operating as a slave device, SPI0 is always selected in 3-wire mode. Since no select  
signal is present, SPI0 must be the only slave on the bus in 3-wire mode. This is intended for point-to-  
point communication between a master and one slave.  
2. NSSMD[1:0] = 01: 4-Wire Slave or Multi-Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is  
enabled as an input. When operating as a slave, NSS selects the SPI0 device. When operating as a  
master, a 1-to-0 transition of the NSS signal disables the master function of SPI0 so that multiple  
master devices can be used on the same SPI bus.  
3. NSSMD[1:0] = 1x: 4-Wire Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is enabled as an  
output. The setting of NSSMD0 determines what logic level the NSS pin will output. This configuration  
should only be used when operating SPI0 as a master device.  
See Figure 29.2, Figure 29.3, and Figure 29.4 for typical connection diagrams of the various operational  
modes. Note that the setting of NSSMD bits affects the pinout of the device. When in 3-wire master or  
3-wire slave mode, the NSS pin will not be mapped by the crossbar. In all other modes, the NSS signal will  
be mapped to a pin on the device. See Section “26. Port Input/Output” on page 166 for general purpose  
port I/O and crossbar information.

29.2. SPI0 Master Mode Operation  
A SPI master device initiates all data transfers on a SPI bus. SPI0 is placed in master mode by setting the  
Master Enable flag (MSTEN, SPI0CN.6). Writing a byte of data to the SPI0 data register (SPI0DAT) when  
in master mode writes to the transmit buffer. If the SPI shift register is empty, the byte in the transmit buffer  
is moved to the shift register, and a data transfer begins. The SPI0 master immediately shifts out the data  
serially on the MOSI line while providing the serial clock on SCK. The SPIF (SPI0CN.7) flag is set to logic  
1 at the end of the transfer. If interrupts are enabled, an interrupt request is generated when the SPIF flag  
is set. While the SPI0 master transfers data to a slave on the MOSI line, the addressed SPI slave device  
simultaneously transfers the contents of its shift register to the SPI master on the MISO line in a full-duplex  
operation. Therefore, the SPIF flag serves as both a transmit-complete and receive-data-ready flag. The  
data byte received from the slave is transferred MSB-first into the master's shift register. When a byte is  
fully shifted into the register, it is moved to the receive buffer where it can be read by the processor by  
reading SPI0DAT.  
When configured as a master, SPI0 can operate in one of three different modes: multi-master mode, 3-wire  
single-master mode, and 4-wire single-master mode. The default, multi-master mode is active when  
NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In this mode, NSS is an input to the device, and  
is used to disable the master SPI0 when another master is accessing the bus. When NSS is pulled low in  
this mode, MSTEN (SPI0CN.6) and SPIEN (SPI0CN.0) are set to 0 to disable the SPI master device, and  
a Mode Fault is generated (MODF, SPI0CN.5 = 1). Mode Fault will generate an interrupt if enabled. SPI0  
must be manually re-enabled in software under these circumstances. In multi-master systems, devices will  
typically default to being slave devices while they are not acting as the system master device. In multi-mas-  
ter mode, slave devices can be addressed individually (if needed) using general-purpose I/O pins.  
Figure 29.2 shows a connection diagram between two master devices in multiple-master mode.  
3-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. In this  
mode, NSS is not used, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Any slave devices  
that must be addressed in this mode should be selected using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 29.3  
shows a connection diagram between a master device in 3-wire master mode and a slave device.  
4-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 1. In this mode, NSS is configured as an  
output pin, and can be used as a slave-select signal for a single SPI device. In this mode, the output value  
of NSS is controlled (in software) with the bit NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2). Additional slave devices can be  
addressed using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 29.4 shows a connection diagram for a master device in  
4-wire master mode and two slave devices.

29.3. SPI0 Slave Mode Operation  
When SPI0 is enabled and not configured as a master, it will operate as a SPI slave. As a slave, bytes are  
shifted in through the MOSI pin and out through the MISO pin by a master device controlling the SCK sig-  
nal. A bit counter in the SPI0 logic counts SCK edges. When 8 bits have been shifted through the shift reg-  
ister, the SPIF flag is set to logic 1, and the byte is copied into the receive buffer. Data is read from the  
receive buffer by reading SPI0DAT. A slave device cannot initiate transfers. Data to be transferred to the  
master device is pre-loaded into the shift register by writing to SPI0DAT. Writes to SPI0DAT are double-  
buffered, and are placed in the transmit buffer first. If the shift register is empty, the contents of the transmit  
buffer will immediately be transferred into the shift register. When the shift register already contains data,  
the SPI will load the shift register with the transmit buffer’s contents after the last SCK edge of the next (or  
current) SPI transfer.  
When configured as a slave, SPI0 can be configured for 4-wire or 3-wire operation. The default, 4-wire  
slave mode, is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In 4-wire mode, the  
NSS signal is routed to a port pin and configured as a digital input. SPI0 is enabled when NSS is logic 0,  
and disabled when NSS is logic 1. The bit counter is reset on a falling edge of NSS. The NSS signal must  
be driven low at least 2 system clocks before the first active edge of SCK for each byte transfer.  
Figure 29.4 shows a connection diagram between two slave devices in 4-wire slave mode and a master  
device.  
Rev. 0.2  
227  
C8051F70x/71x  
3-wire slave mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. NSS is not  
used in this mode, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Since there is no way of  
uniquely addressing the device in 3-wire slave mode, SPI0 must be the only slave device present on the  
bus. It is important to note that in 3-wire slave mode there is no external means of resetting the bit counter  
that determines when a full byte has been received. The bit counter can only be reset by disabling and re-  
enabling SPI0 with the SPIEN bit. Figure 29.3 shows a connection diagram between a slave device in 3-  
wire slave mode and a master device.  
29.4. SPI0 Interrupt Sources  
When SPI0 interrupts are enabled, the following four flags will generate an interrupt when they are set to  
logic 1:  
All of the following bits must be cleared by software.  
The SPI Interrupt Flag, SPIF (SPI0CN.7) is set to logic 1 at the end of each byte transfer. This flag can  
occur in all SPI0 modes.  
The Write Collision Flag, WCOL (SPI0CN.6) is set to logic 1 if a write to SPI0DAT is attempted when  
the transmit buffer has not been emptied to the SPI shift register. When this occurs, the write to  
SPI0DAT will be ignored, and the transmit buffer will not be written.This flag can occur in all SPI0  
modes.  
The Mode Fault Flag MODF (SPI0CN.5) is set to logic 1 when SPI0 is configured as a master, and for  
multi-master mode and the NSS pin is pulled low. When a Mode Fault occurs, the MSTEN and SPIEN  
bits in SPI0CN are set to logic 0 to disable SPI0 and allow another master device to access the bus.  
The Receive Overrun Flag RXOVRN (SPI0CN.4) is set to logic 1 when configured as a slave, and a  
transfer is completed and the receive buffer still holds an unread byte from a previous transfer. The new  
byte is not transferred to the receive buffer, allowing the previously received data byte to be read. The  
data byte which caused the overrun is lost.  
29.5. Serial Clock Phase and Polarity  
Four combinations of serial clock phase and polarity can be selected using the clock control bits in the  
SPI0 Configuration Register (SPI0CFG). The CKPHA bit (SPI0CFG.5) selects one of two clock phases  
(edge used to latch the data). The CKPOL bit (SPI0CFG.4) selects between an active-high or active-low  
clock. Both master and slave devices must be configured to use the same clock phase and polarity. SPI0  
should be disabled (by clearing the SPIEN bit, SPI0CN.0) when changing the clock phase or polarity. The  
clock and data line relationships for master mode are shown in Figure 29.5. For slave mode, the clock and  
data relationships are shown in Figure 29.6 and Figure 29.7. CKPHA should be set to 0 on both the master  
and slave SPI when communicating between two Silicon Labs C8051 devices.  
The SPI0 Clock Rate Register (SPI0CKR) as shown in SFR Definition 29.3 controls the master mode  
serial clock frequency. This register is ignored when operating in slave mode. When the SPI is configured  
as a master, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) is one-half the system clock frequency or 12.5 MHz,  
whichever is slower. When the SPI is configured as a slave, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) for  
full-duplex operation is 1/10 the system clock frequency, provided that the master issues SCK, NSS (in 4-  
wire slave mode), and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s system clock. If the master  
issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data asynchronously, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec)  
must be less than 1/10 the system clock frequency. In the special case where the master only wants to  
transmit data to the slave and does not need to receive data from the slave (i.e. half-duplex operation), the  
SPI slave can receive data at a maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) of 1/4 the system clock frequency.  
This is provided that the master issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s  
system clock.

Shift Register Empty (valid in slave mode only).  
This bit will be set to logic 1 when all data has been transferred in/out of the shift  
register, and there is no new information available to read from the transmit buffer  
or write to the receive buffer. It returns to logic 0 when a data byte is transferred to  
the shift register from the transmit buffer or by a transition on SCK. SRMT = 1 when  
in Master Mode.

RXBMT  
Receive Buffer Empty (valid in slave mode only).  
This bit will be set to logic 1 when the receive buffer has been read and contains no  
new information. If there is new information available in the receive buffer that has  
not been read, this bit will return to logic 0. RXBMT = 1 when in Master Mode.  
Note: In slave mode, data on MOSI is sampled in the center of each data bit. In master mode, data on MISO is  
sampled one SYSCLK before the end of each data bit, to provide maximum settling time for the slave device.

30. UART0  
UART0 is an asynchronous, full duplex serial port offering modes 1 and 3 of the standard 8051 UART.  
Enhanced baud rate support allows a wide range of clock sources to generate standard baud rates (details  
in Section “30.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation” on page 238). Received data buffering allows UART0  
to start reception of a second incoming data byte before software has finished reading the previous data  
byte.  
UART0 has two associated SFRs: Serial Control Register 0 (SCON0) and Serial Data Buffer 0 (SBUF0).  
The single SBUF0 location provides access to both transmit and receive registers. Writes to SBUF0  
always access the Transmit register. Reads of SBUF0 always access the buffered Receive register;  
it is not possible to read data from the Transmit register.  
With UART0 interrupts enabled, an interrupt is generated each time a transmit is completed (TI0 is set in  
SCON0), or a data byte has been received (RI0 is set in SCON0). The UART0 interrupt flags are not  
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine. They must be cleared manually  
by software, allowing software to determine the cause of the UART0 interrupt (transmit complete or receive  
complete).

30.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation  
The UART0 baud rate is generated by Timer 1 in 8-bit auto-reload mode. The TX clock is generated by  
TL1; the RX clock is generated by a copy of TL1 (shown as RX Timer in Figure 30.2), which is not user-  
accessible. Both TX and RX Timer overflows are divided by two to generate the TX and RX baud rates.  
The RX Timer runs when Timer 1 is enabled, and uses the same reload value (TH1). However, an  
RX Timer reload is forced when a START condition is detected on the RX pin. This allows a receive to  
begin any time a START is detected, independent of the TX Timer state.

Timer 1 should be configured for Mode 2, 8-bit auto-reload (see Section “31.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Coun-  
ter/Timer with Auto-Reload” on page 248). The Timer 1 reload value should be set so that overflows will  
occur at two times the desired UART baud rate frequency. Timer 1 may be clocked by one of six sources:  
SYSCLK, SYSCLK/4, SYSCLK/12, SYSCLK/48, the external oscillator clock/8, or an external input T1. For  
any given Timer 1 clock source, the UART0 baud rate is determined by Equation 30.1-A and  
Equation 30.1-B.

30.2. Operational Modes  
UART0 provides standard asynchronous, full duplex communication. The UART mode (8-bit or 9-bit) is  
selected by the S0MODE bit (SCON0.7). Typical UART connection options are shown in Figure 30.3.

30.2.1. 8-Bit UART  
8-Bit UART mode uses a total of 10 bits per data byte: one start bit, eight data bits (LSB first), and one stop  
bit. Data are transmitted LSB first from the TX0 pin and received at the RX0 pin. On receive, the eight data  
bits are stored in SBUF0 and the stop bit goes into RB80 (SCON0.2).  
Data transmission begins when software writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit Inter-  
rupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data recep-  
tion can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to logic 1. After the stop bit is  
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:  
RI0 must be logic 0, and if MCE0 is logic 1, the stop bit must be logic 1. In the event of a receive data over-  
run, the first received 8 bits are latched into the SBUF0 receive register and the following overrun data bits  
are lost.  
If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data is stored in SBUF0, the stop bit is stored in RB80 and the  
RI0 flag is set. If these conditions are not met, SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not  
be set. An interrupt will occur if enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set.

30.2.2. 9-Bit UART  
9-bit UART mode uses a total of eleven bits per data byte: a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), a programma-  
ble ninth data bit, and a stop bit. The state of the ninth transmit data bit is determined by the value in TB80  
(SCON0.3), which is assigned by user software. It can be assigned the value of the parity flag (bit P in reg-  
ister PSW) for error detection, or used in multiprocessor communications. On receive, the ninth data bit  
goes into RB80 (SCON0.2) and the stop bit is ignored.  
Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit  
Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data  
reception can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to 1. After the stop bit is  
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:  
(1) RI0 must be logic 0, and (2) if MCE0 is logic 1, the 9th bit must be logic 1 (when MCE0 is logic 0, the  
state of the ninth data bit is unimportant). If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data are stored in  
SBUF0, the ninth bit is stored in RB80, and the RI0 flag is set to 1. If the above conditions are not met,  
SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not be set to 1. A UART0 interrupt will occur if  
enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set to 1.

30.3. Multiprocessor Communications  
9-Bit UART mode supports multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more  
slave processors by special use of the ninth data bit. When a master processor wants to transmit to one or  
more slaves, it first sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs from a data byte  
in that its ninth bit is logic 1; in a data byte, the ninth bit is always set to logic 0.  
Setting the MCE0 bit (SCON0.5) of a slave processor configures its UART such that when a stop bit is  
received, the UART will generate an interrupt only if the ninth bit is logic 1 (RB80 = 1) signifying an address  
byte has been received. In the UART interrupt handler, software will compare the received address with  
the slave's own assigned 8-bit address. If the addresses match, the slave will clear its MCE0 bit to enable  
interrupts on the reception of the following data byte(s). Slaves that weren't addressed leave their MCE0  
bits set and do not generate interrupts on the reception of the following data bytes, thereby ignoring the  
data. Once the entire message is received, the addressed slave resets its MCE0 bit to ignore all transmis-  
sions until it receives the next address byte.  
Multiple addresses can be assigned to a single slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple  
slaves, thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The master  
processor can be configured to receive all transmissions or a protocol can be implemented such that the  
master/slave role is temporarily reversed to enable half-duplex transmission between the original master  
and slave(s).

This SFR accesses two registers; a transmit shift register and a receive latch register.  
When data is written to SBUF0, it goes to the transmit shift register and is held for  
serial transmission. Writing a byte to SBUF0 initiates the transmission. A read of  
SBUF0 returns the contents of the receive latch.

31. Timers  
Each MCU includes four counter/timers: two are 16-bit counter/timers compatible with those found in the  
standard 8051, and two are 16-bit auto-reload timer for use with the ADC, SMBus, or for general purpose  
use. These timers can be used to measure time intervals, count external events and generate periodic  
interrupt requests. Timer 0 and Timer 1 are nearly identical and have four primary modes of operation.  
Timer 2 and Timer 3 offer 16-bit and split 8-bit timer functionality with auto-reload. Additionally, Timer 3  
offers the ability to be clocked from the external oscillator while the device is in Suspend mode, and can be  
used as a wake-up source. This allows for implementation of a very low-power system, including RTC  
capability.

16-bit timer with auto-reload

Two 8-bit timers with auto-reload Two 8-bit timers with auto-reload  
Timers 0 and 1 may be clocked by one of five sources, determined by the Timer Mode Select bits (T1M–  
T0M) and the Clock Scale bits (SCA1SCA0). The Clock Scale bits define a pre-scaled clock from which  
Timer 0 and/or Timer 1 may be clocked (See SFR Definition 31.1 for pre-scaled clock selection).  
Timer 0/1 may then be configured to use this pre-scaled clock signal or the system clock. Timer 2 and  
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator  
clock source divided by 8.  
Timer 0 and Timer 1 may also be operated as counters. When functioning as a counter, a counter/timer  
register is incremented on each high-to-low transition at the selected input pin (T0 or T1). Events with a fre-  
quency of up to one-fourth the system clock frequency can be counted. The input signal need not be peri-  
odic, but it should be held at a given level for at least two full system clock cycles to ensure the level is  
properly sampled.

31.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1  
Each timer is implemented as a 16-bit register accessed as two separate bytes: a low byte (TL0 or TL1)  
and a high byte (TH0 or TH1). The Counter/Timer Control register (TCON) is used to enable Timer 0 and  
Timer 1 as well as indicate status. Timer 0 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET0 bit in the IE regis-  
ter (Section “19.2. Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 125); Timer 1 interrupts can be enabled by set-  
ting the ET1 bit in the IE register (Section “19.2. Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 125). Both  
counter/timers operate in one of four primary modes selected by setting the Mode Select bits T1M1T0M0  
in the Counter/Timer Mode register (TMOD). Each timer can be configured independently. Each operating  
mode is described below.  
31.1.1. Mode 0: 13-bit Counter/Timer  
Timer 0 and Timer 1 operate as 13-bit counter/timers in Mode 0. The following describes the configuration  
and operation of Timer 0. However, both timers operate identically, and Timer 1 is configured in the same  
manner as described for Timer 0.  
The TH0 register holds the eight MSBs of the 13-bit counter/timer. TL0 holds the five LSBs in bit positions  
TL0.4TL0.0. The three upper bits of TL0 (TL0.7TL0.5) are indeterminate and should be masked out or  
ignored when reading. As the 13-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0x1FFF (all ones) to  
0x0000, the timer overflow flag TF0 in TCON is set and an interrupt will occur if Timer 0 interrupts are  
enabled.  
The C/T0 bit in the TMOD register selects the counter/timer's clock source. When C/T0 is set to logic 1,  
high-to-low transitions at the selected Timer 0 input pin (T0) increment the timer register (Refer to Section  
“26.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 171 for information on selecting and configuring external I/O  
pins). Clearing C/T selects the clock defined by the T0M bit in register CKCON. When T0M is set, Timer 0  
is clocked by the system clock. When T0M is cleared, Timer 0 is clocked by the source selected by the  
Clock Scale bits in CKCON (see SFR Definition 31.1).  
Setting the TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 in the TMOD register is logic 0 or the  
input signal INT0 is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see SFR Definition 19.7). Setting  
GATE0 to 1 allows the timer to be controlled by the external input signal INT0 (see Section “19.2. Interrupt  
Register Descriptions” on page 125), facilitating pulse width measurements

Setting TR0 does not force the timer to reset. The timer registers should be loaded with the desired initial  
value before the timer is enabled.  
TL1 and TH1 form the 13-bit register for Timer 1 in the same manner as described above for TL0 and TH0.  
Timer 1 is configured and controlled using the relevant TCON and TMOD bits just as with Timer 0. The  
input signal INT0 is used with Timer 1; the /INT1 polarity is defined by bit IN1PL in register IT01CF (see  
SFR Definition 19.7).

31.1.2. Mode 1: 16-bit Counter/Timer  
Mode 1 operation is the same as Mode 0, except that the counter/timer registers use all 16 bits. The coun-  
ter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 1 in the same manner as for Mode 0.  
31.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload  
Mode 2 configures Timer 0 and Timer 1 to operate as 8-bit counter/timers with automatic reload of the start  
value. TL0 holds the count and TH0 holds the reload value. When the counter in TL0 overflows from all  
ones to 0x00, the timer overflow flag TF0 in the TCON register is set and the counter in TL0 is reloaded  
from TH0. If Timer 0 interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will occur when the TF0 flag is set. The reload  
value in TH0 is not changed. TL0 must be initialized to the desired value before enabling the timer for the  
first count to be correct. When in Mode 2, Timer 1 operates identically to Timer 0.  
Both counter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 2 in the same manner as Mode 0. Setting the  
TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 in the TMOD register is logic 0 or when the input  
signal INT0 is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see Section “19.3. INT0 and INT1 External  
Interrupts” on page 132 for details on the external input signals INT0 and INT1).

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

31.2. Timer 2  
Timer 2 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR2L (low byte) and TMR2H (high byte). Timer 2 may  
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T2SPLIT bit (TMR2CN.3) defines  
the Timer 2 operation mode. Timer 2 can also be used in capture mode to capture rising edges of the  
Comparator 0 output.  
Timer 2 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator  
source divided by 8. The external clock mode is ideal for real-time clock (RTC) functionality, where the  
internal oscillator drives the system clock while Timer 2 (and/or the PCA) is clocked by an external preci-  
sion oscillator. The external oscillator source divided by 8 is synchronized with the system clock.  
31.2.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload  
When T2SPLIT (TMR2CN.3) is zero, Timer 2 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 2 can be  
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8. As the  
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 2  
reload registers (TMR2RLH and TMR2RLL) is loaded into the Timer 2 register as shown in Figure 31.4,  
and the Timer 2 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR2CN.7) is set. If Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (if IE.5 is  
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 2 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 2 interrupts are enabled  
and the TF2LEN bit is set (TMR2CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR2L)  
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

31.2.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload  
When T2SPLIT is set, Timer 2 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR2H and TMR2L). Both 8-bit timers oper-  
ate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 31.5. TMR2RLL holds the reload value for TMR2L; TMR2RLH  
holds the reload value for TMR2H. The TR2 bit in TMR2CN handles the run control for TMR2H. TMR2L is  
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.  
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock  
source divided by 8. The Timer 2 Clock Select bits (T2MH and T2ML in CKCON) select either SYSCLK or  
the clock defined by the Timer 2 External Clock Select bit (T2XCLK in TMR2CN), as follows:

The TF2H bit is set when TMR2H overflows from 0xFF to 0x00; the TF2L bit is set when TMR2L overflows  
from 0xFF to 0x00. When Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (IE.5), an interrupt is generated each time  
TMR2H overflows. If Timer 2 interrupts are enabled and TF2LEN (TMR2CN.5) is set, an interrupt is gener-  
ated each time either TMR2L or TMR2H overflows. When TF2LEN is enabled, software must check the  
TF2H and TF2L flags to determine the source of the Timer 2 interrupt. The TF2H and TF2L interrupt flags  
are not cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

31.2.3. Comparator 0 Capture Mode  
The capture mode in Timer 2 allows Comparator 0 rising edges to be captured with the timer clocking from  
the system clock or the system clock divided by 12. Timer 2 capture mode is enabled by setting TF2CEN  
to 1 and T2SPLIT to 0.  
When capture mode is enabled, a capture event will be generated on every Comparator 0 rising edge.  
When the capture event occurs, the contents of Timer 2 (TMR2H:TMR2L) are loaded into the Timer 2  
reload registers (TMR2RLH:TMR2RLL) and the TF2H flag is set (triggering an interrupt if Timer 2 inter-  
rupts are enabled). By recording the difference between two successive timer capture values, the  
Comparator 0 period can be determined with respect to the Timer 2 clock. The Timer 2 clock should be  
much faster than the capture clock to achieve an accurate reading.  
This mode allows software to determine the time between consecutive Comparator 0 rising edges, which  
can be used for detecting changes in the capacitance of a capacitive switch, or measuring the frequency of  
a low-level analog signal.

31.3. Timer 3  
Timer 3 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR3L (low byte) and TMR3H (high byte). Timer 3 may  
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T3SPLIT bit (TMR3CN.3) defines  
the Timer 3 operation mode.  
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, or the external oscillator  
source divided by 8. The external clock mode is ideal for real-time clock (RTC) functionality, where the  
internal high-frequency oscillator drives the system clock while Timer 3 is clocked by an external oscillator  
source. The external oscillator source divided by 8 is synchronized with the system clock when in all oper-  
ating modes except suspend. When the internal oscillator is placed in suspend mode, The external clock/8  
signal can directly drive the timer. This allows the use of an external clock to wake up the device from sus-  
pend mode. The timer will continue to run in suspend mode and count up. When the timer overflow occurs,  
the device will wake from suspend mode, and begin executing code again. The timer value may be set  
prior to entering suspend, to overflow in the desired amount of time (number of clocks) to wake the device.  
If a wake-up source other than the timer wakes the device from suspend mode, it may take up to three  
timer clocks before the timer registers can be read or written. During this time, the STSYNC bit in register  
OSCICN will be set to 1, to indicate that it is not safe to read or write the timer registers.  
31.3.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload  
When T3SPLIT (TMR3CN.3) is zero, Timer 3 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 3 can be  
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock source divided by 8. As the  
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 3  
reload registers (TMR3RLH and TMR3RLL) is loaded into the Timer 3 register as shown in Figure 31.7,  
and the Timer 3 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR3CN.7) is set. If Timer 3 interrupts are enabled (if EIE1.7 is  
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 3 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 3 interrupts are enabled  
and the TF3LEN bit is set (TMR3CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR3L)  
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

31.3.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload  
When T3SPLIT is set, Timer 3 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR3H and TMR3L). Both 8-bit timers oper-  
ate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 31.8. TMR3RLL holds the reload value for TMR3L; TMR3RLH  
holds the reload value for TMR3H. The TR3 bit in TMR3CN handles the run control for TMR3H. TMR3L is  
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode. Timer 3 can also be used in capture mode to capture rising  
edges of the Comparator 0 output.  
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, or the external oscillator clock  
source divided by 8. The Timer 3 clock select bits (T3MH and T3ML in CKCON) select either SYSCLK or  
the clock defined by the Timer 3 External Clock Select bits (T3XCLK in TMR3CN), as follows:

The TF3H bit is set when TMR3H overflows from 0xFF to 0x00; the TF3L bit is set when TMR3L overflows  
from 0xFF to 0x00. When Timer 3 interrupts are enabled, an interrupt is generated each time TMR3H over-  
flows. If Timer 3 interrupts are enabled and TF3LEN (TMR3CN.5) is set, an interrupt is generated each  
time either TMR3L or TMR3H overflows. When TF3LEN is enabled, software must check the TF3H and  
TF3L flags to determine the source of the Timer 3 interrupt. The TF3H and TF3L interrupt flags are not  
cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

31.3.3. Comparator 0 Capture Mode  
The capture mode in Timer 3 allows Comparator 0 rising edges to be captured with the timer clocking from  
the system clock or the system clock divided by 12. Timer 3 capture mode is enabled by setting TF3CEN  
to 1 and T3SPLIT to 0.  
When capture mode is enabled, a capture event will be generated on every Comparator 0 rising edge.  
When the capture event occurs, the contents of Timer 3 (TMR3H:TMR3L) are loaded into the Timer 3  
reload registers (TMR3RLH:TMR3RLL) and the TF3H flag is set (triggering an interrupt if Timer 3 inter-  
rupts are enabled). By recording the difference between two successive timer capture values, the  
Comparator 0 period can be determined with respect to the Timer 3 clock. The Timer 3 clock should be  
much faster than the capture clock to achieve an accurate reading.  
This mode allows software to determine the time between consecutive Comparator 0 rising edges, which  
can be used for detecting changes in the capacitance of a capacitive switch, or measuring the frequency of  
a low-level analog signal.

32. Programmable Counter Array  
The Programmable Counter Array (PCA0) provides enhanced timer functionality while requiring less CPU  
intervention than the standard 8051 counter/timers. The PCA consists of a dedicated 16-bit counter/timer  
and three 16-bit capture/compare modules. Each capture/compare module has its own associated I/O line  
(CEXn) which is routed through the Crossbar to Port I/O when enabled. The counter/timer is driven by a  
programmable timebase that can select between seven sources: system clock, system clock divided by  
four, system clock divided by twelve, the external oscillator clock source divided by 8, Timer 0 overflows, or  
an external clock signal on the ECI input pin. Each capture/compare module may be configured to operate  
independently in one of six modes: Edge-Triggered Capture, Software Timer, High-Speed Output, Fre-  
quency Output,  
8 to 11-Bit PWM, or 16-Bit PWM (each mode is described in Section  
“32.3. Capture/Compare Modules” on page 269). The external oscillator clock option is ideal for real-time  
clock (RTC) functionality, allowing the PCA to be clocked by a precision external oscillator while the inter-  
nal oscillator drives the system clock. The PCA is configured and controlled through the system controller's  
Special Function Registers. The PCA block diagram is shown in Figure 32.1

32.1. PCA Counter/Timer  
The 16-bit PCA counter/timer consists of two 8-bit SFRs: PCA0L and PCA0H. PCA0H is the high byte  
(MSB) of the 16-bit counter/timer and PCA0L is the low byte (LSB). Reading PCA0L automatically latches  
the value of PCA0H into a “snapshot” register; the following PCA0H read accesses this “snapshot” register.  
Reading the PCA0L Register first guarantees an accurate reading of the entire 16-bit PCA0 counter.  
Reading PCA0H or PCA0L does not disturb the counter operation. The CPS2CPS0 bits in the PCA0MD  
register select the timebase for the counter/timer as shown in Table 32.1.  
When the counter/timer overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the Counter Overflow Flag (CF) in PCA0MD is  
set to logic 1 and an interrupt request is generated if CF interrupts are enabled. Setting the ECF bit in  
PCA0MD to logic 1 enables the CF flag to generate an interrupt request. The CF bit is not automatically  
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by soft-  
ware. Clearing the CIDL bit in the PCA0MD register allows the PCA to continue normal operation while the  
CPU is in Idle mode.

32.2. PCA0 Interrupt Sources  
Figure 32.3 shows a diagram of the PCA interrupt tree. There are eight independent event flags that can  
be used to generate a PCA0 interrupt. They are: the main PCA counter overflow flag (CF), which is set  
upon a 16-bit overflow of the PCA0 counter, an intermediate overflow flag (COVF), which can be set on an  
overflow from the 8th, 9th, 10th, or 11th bit of the PCA0 counter, and the individual flags for each PCA  
channel (CCF0, CCF1, and CCF2), which are set according to the operation mode of that module. These  
event flags are always set when the trigger condition occurs. Each of these flags can be individually  
selected to generate a PCA0 interrupt, using the corresponding interrupt enable flag (ECF for CF, ECOV  
for COVF, and ECCFn for each CCFn). PCA0 interrupts must be globally enabled before any individual  
interrupt sources are recognized by the processor. PCA0 interrupts are globally enabled by setting the EA  
bit and the EPCA0 bit to logic 1.

32.3. Capture/Compare Modules  
Each module can be configured to operate independently in one of six operation modes: Edge-triggered  
Capture, Software Timer, High Speed Output, Frequency Output, 8 to 11-Bit Pulse Width Modulator, or 16-  
Bit Pulse Width Modulator. Each module has Special Function Registers (SFRs) associated with it in the  
CIP-51 system controller. These registers are used to exchange data with a module and configure the  
module's mode of operation. Table 32.2 summarizes the bit settings in the PCA0CPMn and PCA0PWM  
registers used to select the PCA capture/compare module’s operating mode. All modules set to use 8, 9,  
10, or 11-bit PWM mode must use the same cycle length (8-11 bits). Setting the ECCFn bit in a  
PCA0CPMn register enables the module's CCFn interrupt.

In this mode, a valid transition on the CEXn pin causes the PCA to capture the value of the PCA coun-  
ter/timer and load it into the corresponding module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPLn and  
PCA0CPHn). The CAPPn and CAPNn bits in the PCA0CPMn register are used to select the type of transi-  
tion that triggers the capture: low-to-high transition (positive edge), high-to-low transition (negative edge),  
or either transition (positive or negative edge). When a capture occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn)  
in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is  
enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt ser-  
vice routine, and must be cleared by software. If both CAPPn and CAPNn bits are set to logic 1, then the  
state of the Port pin associated with CEXn can be read directly to determine whether a rising-edge or fall-  
ing-edge caused the capture.

32.3.2. Software Timer (Compare) Mode  
In Software Timer mode, the PCA counter/timer value is compared to the module's 16-bit capture/compare  
register (PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in  
PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is  
enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt ser-  
vice routine, and must be cleared by software. Setting the ECOMn and MATn bits in the PCA0CPMn regis-  
ter enables Software Timer mode.  
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-  
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the  
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

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

32.3.4. Frequency Output Mode  
Frequency Output Mode produces a programmable-frequency square wave on the module’s associated  
CEXn pin. The capture/compare module high byte holds the number of PCA clocks to count before the out-  
put is toggled. The frequency of the square wave is then defined by Equation 32.1.

Note: A value of 0x00 in the PCA0CPHn register is equal to 256 for this equation.

Where F  
is the frequency of the clock selected by the CPS20 bits in the PCA mode register,  
PCA  
PCA0MD. The lower byte of the capture/compare module is compared to the PCA counter low byte; on a  
match, CEXn is toggled and the offset held in the high byte is added to the matched value in PCA0CPLn.  
Frequency Output Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, TOGn, and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn reg-  
ister. The MATn bit should normally be set to 0 in this mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for  
the channel will be set when the 16-bit PCA0 counter and the 16-bit capture/compare register for the chan-  
nel are equal.

32.3.5. 8-bit, 9-bit, 10-bit and 11-bit Pulse Width Modulator Modes  
Each module can be used independently to generate a pulse width modulated (PWM) output on its associ-  
ated CEXn pin. The frequency of the output is dependent on the timebase for the PCA counter/timer, and  
the setting of the PWM cycle length (8, 9, 10 or 11-bits). For backwards-compatibility with the 8-bit PWM  
mode available on other devices, the 8-bit PWM mode operates slightly different than 9, 10 and 11-bit  
PWM modes. It is important to note that all channels configured for 8/9/10/11-bit PWM mode will use  
the same cycle length. It is not possible to configure one channel for 8-bit PWM mode and another for 11-  
bit mode (for example). However, other PCA channels can be configured to Pin Capture, High-Speed Out-  
put, Software Timer, Frequency Output, or 16-bit PWM mode independently.  
32.3.5.1. 8-bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode  
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal in 8-bit PWM mode is varied using the module's PCA0CPLn cap-  
ture/compare register. When the value in the low byte of the PCA counter/timer (PCA0L) is equal to the  
value in PCA0CPLn, the output on the CEXn pin will be set. When the count value in PCA0L overflows, the  
CEXn output will be reset (see Figure 32.8). Also, when the counter/timer low byte (PCA0L) overflows from  
0xFF to 0x00, PCA0CPLn is reloaded automatically with the value stored in the module’s capture/compare  
high byte (PCA0CPHn) without software intervention. Setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the  
PCA0CPMn register, and setting the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM to 00b enables 8-Bit Pulse Width  
Modulator mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each time an 8-bit  
comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The COVF flag in PCA0PWM can be used to detect the overflow  
(falling edge), which will occur every 256 PCA clock cycles. The duty cycle for 8-Bit PWM Mode is given in  
Equation 32.2.  
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-  
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the  
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

Equation 32.2. 8-Bit PWM Duty Cycle  
Using Equation 32.2, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPHn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is  
0.39% (PCA0CPHn = 0xFF). A 0% duty cycle may be generated by clearing the ECOMn bit to 0.

32.3.5.2. 9/10/11-bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode  
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal in 9/10/11-bit PWM mode should be varied by writing to an “Auto-  
Reload” Register, which is dual-mapped into the PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn register locations. The data  
written to define the duty cycle should be right-justified in the registers. The auto-reload registers are  
accessed (read or written) when the bit ARSEL in PCA0PWM is set to 1. The capture/compare registers  
are accessed when ARSEL is set to 0.  
When the least-significant N bits of the PCA0 counter match the value in the associated module’s cap-  
ture/compare register (PCA0CPn), the output on CEXn is asserted high. When the counter overflows from  
the Nth bit, CEXn is asserted low (see Figure 32.9). Upon an overflow from the Nth bit, the COVF flag is  
set, and the value stored in the module’s auto-reload register is loaded into the capture/compare register.  
The value of N is determined by the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM.  
The 9, 10 or 11-bit PWM mode is selected by setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn regis-  
ter, and setting the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM to the desired cycle length (other than 8-bits). If the  
MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each time a comparator match (rising edge)  
occurs. The COVF flag in PCA0PWM can be used to detect the overflow (falling edge), which will occur  
every 512 (9-bit), 1024 (10-bit) or 2048 (11-bit) PCA clock cycles. The duty cycle for 9/10/11-Bit PWM  
Mode is given in Equation 32.2, where N is the number of bits in the PWM cycle.  
Important Note About PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the  
PCA0CPn registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the ECOMn  
bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

32.3.6. 16-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode  
A PCA module may also be operated in 16-Bit PWM mode. 16-bit PWM mode is independent of the other  
(8/9/10/11-bit) PWM modes. In this mode, the 16-bit capture/compare module defines the number of PCA  
clocks for the low time of the PWM signal. When the PCA counter matches the module contents, the out-  
put on CEXn is asserted high; when the 16-bit counter overflows, CEXn is asserted low. To output a vary-  
ing duty cycle, new value writes should be synchronized with PCA CCFn match interrupts. 16-Bit PWM  
Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, PWMn, and PWM16n bits in the PCA0CPMn register. For a vary-  
ing duty cycle, match interrupts should be enabled (ECCFn = 1 AND MATn = 1) to help synchronize the  
capture/compare register writes. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each  
time a 16-bit comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The CF flag in PCA0CN can be used to detect the  
overflow (falling edge). The duty cycle for 16-Bit PWM Mode is given by Equation 32.4.  
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0 Cap-  
ture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the  
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

33. C2 Interface  
C8051F70x/71x devices include an on-chip Silicon Labs 2-Wire (C2) debug interface to allow Flash pro-  
gramming and in-system debugging with the production part installed in the end application. The C2 inter-  
face operates using only two pins: a bi-directional data signal (C2D), and a clock input (C2CK). See the C2  
Interface Specification for details on the C2 protocol.  
33.1. C2 Interface Registers  
The following describes the C2 registers necessary to perform Flash programming functions through the  
C2 interface. All C2 registers are accessed through the C2 interface as described in the C2 Interface Spec-  
ification.

33.2. C2CK Pin Sharing  
The C2CK pin is shared with the RST signal on this device family. If the RST pin is used by other parts of  
the system, debugging and programming the device can still be accomplished without disrupting the rest of  
the system. If this is desired, it is normally necessary to add a resistor to isolate the system’s reset line  
from the C2CK signal. This external resistors would not be necessary for production boards, where debug-  
ging capabilities are not needed. A typical isolation configuration is shown in Figure 33.1.

Figure 33.1. Typical C2CK Pin Sharing  
The configuration in Figure 33.1 assumes the RST pin on the target device is used as an input only. Addi-  
tional resistors may be necessary depending on the specific application.
