GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADuC834 is a complete smart transducer front end,
integrating two high resolution - ADCs, an 8-bit MCU, and
program/data Flash/EE memory on a single chip.
The two independent ADCs (primary and auxiliary) include a
temperature sensor and a PGA (allowing direct measurement of
low level signals). The ADCs with on-chip digital filtering and
programmable output data rates are intended for the measurement
of wide dynamic range, low frequency signals, such as those in
weigh scale, strain-gage, pressure transducer, or temperature
measurement applications.
The device operates from a 32 kHz crystal with an on-chip PLL
generating a high frequency clock of 12.58 MHz. This clock is
routed through a programmable clock divider from which the MCU
core clock operating frequency is generated. The microcontroller
core is an 8052 and therefore 8051 instruction set compatible
with 12 core clock periods per machine cycle.
62 Kbytes of nonvolatile Flash/EE program memory, 4 Kbytes of
nonvolatile Flash/EE data memory, and 2304 bytes of data RAM
are provided on-chip. The program memory can be configured
as data memory to give up to 60 Kbytes of NV data memory in
data logging applications.
On-chip factory firmware supports in-circuit serial download and
debug modes (via UART), as well as single-pin emulation mode
via the EA pin. The ADuC834 is supported by a QuickStart™
development system featuring low cost software and hardware
development tools.

NOTES
1
Temperature Range for ADuC834BS (MQFP package) is –40°C to +125°C.
Temperature Range for ADuC834BCP (CSP package) is –40°C to +85°C.
2
These numbers are not production tested but are guaranteed by design and/or characterization data on production release.
3
System Zero-Scale Calibration can remove this error.
4
The primary ADC is factory calibrated at 25°C with AVDD = DVDD = 5 V yielding this full-scale error of 10 V. If user power supply or temperature conditions are
significantly different from these, an Internal Full-Scale Calibration will restore this error to 10 V. A system zero-scale and full-scale calibration will remove this
error altogether.
5
Gain Error Drift is a span drift. To calculate Full-Scale Error Drift, add the Offset Error Drift to the Gain Error Drift times the full-scale input.
6
The auxiliary ADC is factory calibrated at 25°C with AVDD = DVDD = 5 V yielding this full-scale error of –2.5 LSB. A system zero-scale and full-scale calibration
will remove this error altogether.
7
DAC linearity and ac specifications are calculated using: reduced code range of 48 to 4095, 0 to V REF; reduced code range of 100 to 3950, 0 to V DD.
8
Gain Error is a measure of the span error of the DAC.
9
In general terms, the bipolar input voltage range to the primary ADC is given by RangeADC = ± (VREF 2RN)/125, where:
VREF = REFIN(+) to REFIN(–) voltage and V REF = 1.25 V when internal ADC V REF is selected. RN = decimal equivalent of RN2, RN1, RN0, e.g., V REF = 2.5 V
and RN2, RN1, RN0 = 1, 1, 0 the Range ADC = ± 1.28 V. In unipolar mode, the effective range is 0 V to 1.28 V in our example.
10
1.25 V is used as the reference voltage to the ADC when internal V REF is selected via XREF0 and XREF1 bits in ADC0CON and ADC1CON, respectively.
11
In bipolar mode, the Auxiliary ADC can only be driven to a minimum of AGND – 30 mV as indicated by the Auxiliary ADC absolute AIN voltage limits. The
bipolar range is still –V REF to +VREF; however, the negative voltage is limited to –30 mV.
12
The ADuC834BCP (CSP Package) has been qualified and tested with the base of the CSP Package floating.

Pins configured in SPI Mode, pins configured as digital inputs during this test.
14
Pins configured in I 2C Mode only.
15
Flash/EE Memory Reliability Characteristics apply to both the Flash/EE program memory and Flash/EE data memory.
16
Endurance is qualified to 100 Kcycles as per JEDEC Std. 22 method A117 and measured at –40 °C, +25°C, +85°C, and +125°C. Typical endurance at 25°C
is 700 Kcycles.
17
Retention lifetime equivalent at junction temperature (T J) = 55°C as per JEDEC Std. 22, Method A117. Retention lifetime based on an activation energy of 0.6eV
will derate with junction temperature as shown in Figure 16 in the Flash/EE Memory section of this data sheet.
18
Power Supply current consumption is measured in Normal, Idle, and Power-Down modes under the following conditions:
Normal mode: Reset = 0.4 V, Digital I/O pins = open circuit, Core Clk changed via CD bits in PLLCON, Core Executing internal software loop.
Idle mode: Reset = 0.4 V, Digital I/O pins = open circuit, Core Clk changed via CD bits in PLLCON, PCON.0 = 1, Core Execution suspended in idle mode.
Power-Down mode: Reset = 0.4 V, All P0 pins and P1.2–P1.7 Pins = 0.4 V, All other digital I/O pins are open circuit, Core Clk changed via CD bits in
PLLCON, PCON.1 = 1, Core Execution suspended in power-down mode, OSC turned ON or OFF via OSC_PD bit (PLLCON.7) in PLLCON SFR.
19
DVDD power supply current will increase typically by 3 mA (3 V operation) and 10 mA (5 V operation) during a Flash/EE memory program or erase cycle.

Port 2 is a bidirectional port with internal pull-up resistors. Port 2 pins that have 1s

be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 2 pins being pulled externally low will source current
because of the internal pull-up resistors.

External Access Enable, Logic Input. When held high, this input enables the device

memory. To determine the mode of code execution, i.e., internal or external, the
EA pin is sampled at the end of an external RESET assertion or as part of a device
power cycle. EA may also be used as an external emulation I/O pin, and therefore
the voltage level at this pin must not be changed during normal mode operation
as it may cause an emulation interrupt that will halt code execution.

as high impedance inputs. An external pull-up resistor will be required on P0 outputs
to force a valid logic high level externally. Port 0 is also the multiplexed low-order
address and databus during accesses to external program or data memory. In this
application, it uses strong internal pull-ups when emitting 1s.

Reset initializes the stack pointer to location 07H. Any CALL
or PUSH pre-increments the SP before loading the stack.
Therefore, loading the stack starts from locations 08H, which is
also the first register (R0) of register bank 1. Thus, if one is
going to use more than one register bank, the stack pointer should
be initialized to an area of RAM not used for data storage.
• 2 Kbytes of Internal XRAM
(1) Flash/EE Program Memory
The ADuC834 provides 62 Kbytes of Flash/EE program
memory to run user code. The user can choose to run code from
this internal memory or run code from an external program
memory.
If the user applies power or resets the device while the EA pin is
pulled low externally, the part will execute code from the external
program space; otherwise, if EA is pulled high externally, the
part defaults to code execution from its internal 62 Kbytes of
Flash/EE program memory.
Unlike the ADuC824, where code execution can overflow from
the internal code space to external code space once the PC
becomes greater than 1FFFH, the ADuC834 does not support
the rollover from F7FFH in internal code space to F800H in
external code space. Instead, the 2048 bytes between F800H
and FFFFH will appear as NOP instructions to user code.

56 Kbytes of the program memory can be reprogrammed during
runtime; thus the code space can be upgraded in the field using
a user defined protocol or it can be used as a data memory.
This will be discussed in more detail in the Flash/EE Memory
section of the data sheet.
Figure 2. Lower 128 Bytes of Internal Data Memory
(4) Internal XRAM
The ADuC834 contains 2 Kbytes of on-chip extended data
memory. This memory, although on-chip, is accessed via the
MOVX instruction. The 2 Kbytes of internal XRAM are
mapped into the bottom 2 Kbytes of the external address space
if the CFG834.0 bit is set. Otherwise, access to the external
data memory will occur just like a standard 8051.
(2) Flash/EE Data Memory
4 Kbytes of Flash/EE Data Memory are available to the user
and can be accessed indirectly via a group of registers mapped
into the Special Function Register (SFR) area. Access to the
Flash/EE Data memory is discussed in detail later as part of the
Flash/EE Memory section in this data sheet.
Even with the CFG834.0 bit set, access to the external XRAM
will occur once the 24-bit DPTR is greater than 0007FFH.
(3) General-Purpose RAM

The general-purpose RAM is divided into two separate memories,
namely the upper and the lower 128 bytes of RAM. The lower
128 bytes of RAM can be accessed through direct or indirect
addressing; the upper 128 bytes of RAM can only be accessed
through indirect addressing as it shares the same address space
as the SFR space, which can only be accessed through direct
addressing.

ADuC834
When accessing the internal XRAM, the P0 and P2 port pins,
as well as the RD and WR strobes, will not be output as per a
standard 8051 MOVX instruction. This allows the user to use
these port pins as standard I/O.
SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS (SFRS)
The upper 1792 bytes of the internal XRAM can be configured
to be used as an extended 11-bit stack pointer. By default, the
stack will operate exactly like an 8052 in that it will roll over from
FFH to 00H in the general-purpose RAM. On the ADuC834
however, it is possible (by setting CFG834.7) to enable the 11-bit
extended stack pointer. In this case, the stack will roll over from
FFH in RAM to 0100H in XRAM. The 11-bit stack pointer is
visible in the SP and SPH SFRs. The SP SFR is located at 81H
as with a standard 8052. The SPH SFR is located at B7H. The
3 LSBs of this SFR contain the three extra bits necessary to extend
the 8-bit stack pointer into an 11-bit stack pointer.
The SFR space is mapped into the upper 128 bytes of internal
data memory space and accessed by direct addressing only. It
provides an interface between the CPU and all on-chip peripherals. A block diagram showing the programming model of the
ADuC834 via the SFR area is shown in Figure 5.

Figure 4. Extended Stack Pointer Operation
External Data Memory (External XRAM)
Just like a standard 8051 compatible core, the ADuC834 can
access external data memory using a MOVX instruction. The
MOVX instruction automatically outputs the various control
strobes required to access the data memory.
The ADuC834 however, can access up to 16 Mbytes of external
data memory. This is an enhancement of the 64 Kbytes external
data memory space available on a standard 8051 compatible core.
The external data memory is discussed in more detail in the
ADuC834 Hardware Design Considerations section.
ACC is the Accumulator Register and is used for math operations
including addition, subtraction, integer multiplication and division,
and Boolean bit manipulations. The mnemonics for accumulatorspecific instructions refer to the Accumulator as A.
B SFR (B)
The B Register is used with the ACC for multiplication and
division operations. For other instructions, it can be treated as
a general-purpose scratchpad register.
Data Pointer (DPTR)
The Data Pointer is made up of three 8-bit registers, named DPP
(page byte), DPH (high byte) and DPL (low byte). These are
used to provide memory addresses for internal and external
code access and external data access. It may be manipulated as
a 16-bit register (DPTR = DPH, DPL), although INC DPTR
instructions will automatically carry over to DPP, or as three
independent 8-bit registers (DPP, DPH, DPL).
The ADuC834 supports dual data pointers. Refer to the Dual
Data Pointer section in this data sheet.

Stack Pointer (SP and SPH)
Table II. PCON SFR Bit Designations
The SP SFR is the stack pointer and is used to hold an internal
RAM address that is called the ‘top of the stack.’ The SP Register
is incremented before data is stored during PUSH and CALL
executions. While the Stack may reside anywhere in on-chip
RAM, the SP Register is initialized to 07H after a reset. This
causes the stack to begin at location 08H.
As mentioned earlier, the ADuC834 offers an extended 11-bit
stack pointer. The three extra bits to make up the 11-bit stack
pointer are the 3 LSBs of the SPH byte located at B7H.
Program Status Word (PSW)
The PSW SFR contains several bits reflecting the current status
of the CPU as detailed in Table I.

ADC0/1CON Register.
NOTES
1. Any change to the MD bits will immediately reset both ADCs. A write to the MD2–0 Bits with no change is also treated as a reset. (See exception to this in Note 3 below.)
2. If ADC0CON is written when ADC0EN = 1, or if ADC0EN is changed from 0 to 1, then both ADCs are also immediately reset. In other words, the primary ADC
is given priority over the auxiliary ADC and any change requested on the primary ADC is immediately responded to.
3. On the other hand, if ADC1CON is written or if ADC1EN is changed from 0 to 1, only the auxiliary ADC is reset. For example, if the primary ADC is continuously
converting when the auxiliary ADC change or enable occurs, the primary ADC continues undisturbed. Rather than allow the auxiliary ADC to operate with a phase
difference from the primary ADC, the auxiliary ADC will fall into step with the outputs of the primary ADC. The result is that the first conversion time for the
auxiliary ADC will be delayed up to three outputs while the auxiliary ADC update rate is synchronized to the primary ADC.
4. Once ADCMODE has been written with a calibration mode, the RDY0/1 bits (ADCSTAT) are immediately reset and the calibration commences. On completion,
the appropriate calibration registers are written, the relevant bits in ADCSTAT are written, and the MD2–0 bits are reset to 000 to indicate the ADC is back in
power-down mode.
5. Any calibration request of the auxiliary ADC while the temperature sensor is selected will fail to complete. Although the RDY1 bit will be set at the end of the
calibration cycle, no update of the calibration SFRs will take place and the ERR1 bit will be set.
6. Calibrations are performed at maximum SF (see SF SFR) value guaranteeing optimum calibration operation.

update rate of just under 20 Hz. Both ADC inputs are chopped
to minimize offset errors, which means that the settling time for
a single conversion, or the time to a first conversion result in
Continuous Conversion mode, is 2 tADC. As mentioned earlier,
all calibration cycles will be carried out automatically with a
maximum, i.e., FFH, SF value to ensure optimum calibration
performance. Once a calibration cycle has completed, the value
in the SF Register will be that programmed by user software.

PRIMARY AND AUXILIARY ADC CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Overview
The ADuC834 incorporates two independent - ADCs (primary
and auxiliary) with on-chip digital filtering intended for the measurement of wide dynamic range, low frequency signals such as those
in weigh-scale, strain gage, pressure transducer, or temperature
measurement applications.
Primary ADC
This ADC is intended to convert the primary sensor input. The
input is buffered and can be programmed for one of eight input
ranges from ± 20 mV to ± 2.56 V being driven from one of three
differential input channel options AIN1/2, AIN3/4, or AIN3/2.
The input channel is internally buffered, allowing the part to
handle significant source impedances on the analog input and

allowing R/C filtering (for noise rejection or RFI reduction) to be
placed on the analog inputs if required. On-chip burnout currents
can also be turned on. These currents can be used to check that
a transducer on the selected channel is still operational before
attempting to take measurements.
The ADC employs a - conversion technique to realize up to
24 bits of no missing codes performance. The - modulator converts the sampled input signal into a digital pulse train whose duty
cycle contains the digital information. A Sinc3 programmable lowpass filter is then employed to decimate the modulator output data
stream to give a valid data conversion result at programmable
output rates from 5.35 Hz (186.77 ms) to 105.03 Hz (9.52 ms).
A chopping scheme is also employed to minimize ADC offset errors.
A block diagram of the primary ADC is shown in Figure 7.

ADuC834
Auxiliary ADC
The auxiliary ADC is intended to convert supplementary inputs
such as those from a cold junction diode or thermistor. This ADC
is not buffered and has a fixed input range of 0 V to 2.5 V
(assuming an external 2.5 V reference). The single-ended inputs
can be driven from AIN3, AIN4, or AIN5 Pins, or directly from
the on-chip temperature sensor voltage. A block diagram of the
auxiliary ADC is shown in Figure 8.
Analog Input Channels
The primary ADC has four associated analog input pins (labelled
AIN1 to AIN4) that can be configured as two fully differential input
channels. Channel selection bits in the ADC0CON SFR detailed
in Table VI allow three combinations of differential pair selection
as well as an additional shorted input option (AIN2–AIN2).
The auxiliary ADC has three external input pins (labelled AIN3 to
AIN5) as well as an internal connection to the on-chip temperature
sensor. All inputs to the auxiliary ADC are single-ended inputs
referenced to the AGND on the part. Channel selection bits in
the ADC1CON SFR previously detailed in Table VII allow
selection of one of four inputs.
Two input multiplexers switch the selected input channel to the
on-chip buffer amplifier in the case of the primary ADC and
directly to the - modulator input in the case of the auxiliary
ADC. When the analog input channel is switched, the settling
time of the part must elapse before a new valid word is available
from the ADC.

Primary and Auxiliary ADC Inputs
The output of the primary ADC multiplexer feeds into a high
impedance input stage of the buffer amplifier. As a result, the primary ADC inputs can handle significant source impedances and
are tailored for direct connection to external resistive-type sensors
like strain gages or Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs).
ADC INPUT VOLTAGE – mV
19.371
The auxiliary ADC, however, is unbuffered, resulting in higher
analog input current on the auxiliary ADC. It should be noted
that this unbuffered input path provides a dynamic load to the
driving source. Therefore, resistor/capacitor combinations on
the input pins can cause dc gain errors depending on the output
impedance of the source that is driving the ADC inputs.

19.368
19.367
19.366
19.365
Analog Input Ranges
19.364
The absolute input voltage range on the auxiliary ADC is restricted
to between AGND – 30 mV to AVDD + 30 mV. The slightly
negative absolute input voltage limit does allow the possibility
of monitoring small signal bipolar signals using the single-ended
auxiliary ADC front end.
Programmable Gain Amplifier
The output from the buffer on the primary ADC is applied to the
input of the on-chip programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The
PGA can be programmed through eight different unipolar input
ranges and bipolar ranges. The PGA gain range is programmed
via the range bits in the ADC0CON SFR. With the external
reference select bit set in the ADC0CON SFR and an external
2.5 V reference, the unipolar ranges are 0 mV to 20 mV, 0 mV to
40 mV, 0 mV to 80 mV, 0 mV to 160 mV, 0 mV to 320 mV, 0 mV
to 640 mV, 0 V to 1.28 V, and 0 to 2.56 V; the bipolar ranges are
± 20 mV, ± 40 mV, ± 80 mV, ± 160 mV, ± 320 mV, ± 640 mV,
± 1.28 V, and ± 2.56 V. These are the nominal ranges that should
appear at the input to the on-chip PGA. An ADC range matching specification of 2 V (typ) across all ranges means that
calibration need only be carried out at a single gain range and
does not have to be repeated when the PGA gain range is changed.
Typical matching across ranges is shown in Figure 9. Here, the
primary ADC is configured in bipolar mode with an external
2.5 V reference, while just greater than 19 mV is forced on its
inputs. The ADC continuously converts the dc input voltage at
an update rate of 5.35 Hz, i.e., SF = FFH. In total, 800 conversion results are gathered. The first 100 results are gathered with
the primary ADC operating in the ± 20 mV range. The ADC
range is then switched to ± 40 mV, 100 more conversion results
are gathered, and so on until the last group of 100 samples is
gathered with the ADC configured in the ± 2.56 V range. From
Figure 9, the variation in the sample mean through each range,
i.e., the range matching, is seen to be of the order of 2 V.

The absolute input voltage range on the primary ADC is restricted
to between AGND + 100 mV to AVDD – 100 mV. Care must be
taken in setting up the common-mode voltage and input voltage
range so that these limits are not exceeded; otherwise there will
be a degradation in linearity performance.
Figure 9. Primary ADC Range Matching
Bipolar/Unipolar Inputs
The analog inputs on the ADuC834 can accept either unipolar or
bipolar input voltage ranges. Bipolar input ranges do not imply that
the part can handle negative voltages with respect to system AGND.
Unipolar and bipolar signals on the AIN(+) input on the primary
ADC are referenced to the voltage on the respective AIN(–)
input. For example, if AIN(–) is 2.5 V and the primary ADC is
configured for an analog input range of 0 mV to 20 mV, the input
voltage range on the AIN(+) input is 2.5 V to 2.52 V. If AIN(–)
is 2.5 V and the ADuC834 is configured for an analog input
range of 1.28 V, the analog input range on the AIN(+) input is
1.22 V to 3.78 V (i.e., 2.5 V ± 1.28 V).
As mentioned earlier, the auxiliary ADC input is a single-ended
input with respect to the system AGND. In this context, a bipolar
signal on the auxiliary ADC can only span 30 mV negative with
respect to AGND before violating the voltage input limits for
this ADC.
Bipolar or unipolar options are chosen by programming the
primary and auxiliary Unipolar enable bits in the ADC0CON
and ADC1CON SFRs respectively. This programs the relevant
ADC for either unipolar or bipolar operation. Programming for
either unipolar or bipolar operation does not change any of the
input signal conditioning; it simply changes the data output coding
and the points on the transfer function where calibrations occur.
When an ADC is configured for unipolar operation, the output
coding is natural (straight) binary with a zero differential input
voltage resulting in a code of 000 . . . 000, a midscale voltage
resulting in a code of 100 . . . 000, and a full-scale input voltage
resulting in a code of 111 . . . 111. When an ADC is configured
for bipolar operation, the coding is offset binary with a negative
full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 000 . . . 000, a zero
differential voltage resulting in a code of 100 . . . 000, and a
positive full-scale voltage resulting in a code of 111 . . . 111.
The auxiliary ADC does not incorporate a PGA and is configured
for a fixed single input range of 0 to VREF.

ADuC834
If the voltage measured is 0 V, it indicates that the transducer
has short circuited. For normal operation, these burnout currents
are turned off by writing a 0 to the BO bit in the ICON SFR.
The current sources work over the normal absolute input voltage
range specifications.
Reference Input
The ADuC834’s reference inputs, REFIN(+) and REFIN(–),
provide a differential reference input capability. The commonmode range for these differential inputs is from AGND to AVDD.
The nominal reference voltage, VREF (REFIN(+) – REFIN(–)),
for specified operation is 2.5 V with the primary and auxiliary
reference enable bits set in the respective ADC0CON and/or
ADC1CON SFRs.
Excitation Currents
The part is also functional (although not specified for performance)
when the XREF0 or XREF1 bits are 0, which enables the on-chip
internal band gap reference. In this mode, the ADCs will see the
internal reference of 1.25 V, therefore halving all input ranges.
As a result of using the internal reference voltage, a noticeable
degradation in peak-to-peak resolution will result. Therefore,
for best performance, operation with an external reference is
strongly recommended.
In applications where the excitation (voltage or current) for the
transducer on the analog input also drives the reference voltage
for the part, the effect of the low frequency noise in the excitation
source will be removed as the application is ratiometric. If the
ADuC834 is not used in a ratiometric application, a low noise
reference should be used. Recommended reference voltage sources
for the ADuC834 include the AD780, REF43, and REF192.
It should also be noted that the reference inputs provide a high
impedance, dynamic load. Because the input impedance of each
reference input is dynamic, resistor/capacitor combinations on
these inputs can cause dc gain errors depending on the output
impedance of the source that is driving the reference inputs.
Reference voltage sources, like those recommended above
(e.g., AD780), will typically have low output impedances and
therefore decoupling capacitors on the REFIN(+) input would
be recommended. Deriving the reference input voltage across an
external resistor, as shown in Figure 66, will mean that the reference input sees a significant external source impedance. External
decoupling on the REFIN(+) and REFIN(–) pins would not be
recommended in this type of circuit configuration.
Burnout Currents
The primary ADC on the ADuC834 contains two 100 nA constant
current generators, one sourcing current from AVDD to AIN(+),
and one sinking from AIN(–) to AGND. The currents are switched
to the selected analog input pair. Both currents are either on or
off, depending on the Burnout Current Enable (BO) bit in the
ICON SFR (see Table IX). These currents can be used to verify
that an external transducer is still operational before attempting
to take measurements on that channel. Once the burnout currents are turned on, they will flow in the external transducer
circuit, and a measurement of the input voltage on the analog
input channel can be taken. If the resultant voltage measured is
full-scale, it indicates that the transducer has gone open-circuit.
The ADuC834 also contains two identical, 200 A constant
current sources. Both source current from AVDD to Pin 3 (IEXC1)
or Pin 4 (IEXC2). These current sources are controlled via bits
in the ICON SFR shown in Table IX. They can be configured
to source 200 A individually to both pins or a combination of
both currents, i.e., 400 A, to either of the selected pins. These
current sources can be used to excite external resistive bridge or
RTD sensors.
Reference Detect
The ADuC834 includes on-chip circuitry to detect if the part has
a valid reference for conversions or calibrations. If the voltage
between the external REFIN(+) and REFIN(–) pins goes below
0.3 V or either the REFIN(+) or REFIN(–) inputs is open circuit,
the ADuC834 detects that it no longer has a valid reference. In
this case, the NOXREF bit of the ADCSTAT SFR is set to a 1.
If the ADuC834 is performing normal conversions and the
NOXREF bit becomes active, the conversion results revert to all
1s. It is not necessary to continuously monitor the status of the
NOXREF bit when performing conversions. It is only necessary
to verify its status if the conversion result read from the ADC
Data Register is all 1s.
If the ADuC834 is performing either an offset or gain calibration
and the NOXREF bit becomes active, the updating of the respective calibration registers is inhibited to avoid loading incorrect
coefficients to these registers, and the appropriate ERR0 or
ERR1 bits in the ADCSTAT SFR are set. If the user is concerned
about verifying that a valid reference is in place every time a
calibration is performed, the status of the ERR0 or ERR1 bit
should be checked at the end of the calibration cycle.
- Modulator
A - ADC generally consists of two main blocks, an analog
modulator and a digital filter. In the case of the ADuC834
ADCs, the analog modulators consist of a difference amplifier,
an integrator block, a comparator, and a feedback DAC as
illustrated in Figure 10.

In operation, the analog signal sample is fed to the difference
amplifier along with the output of the feedback DAC. The
difference between these two signals is integrated and fed to the
comparator. The output of the comparator provides the input to
the feedback DAC so the system functions as a negative feedback
loop that tries to minimize the difference signal. The digital
data that represents the analog input voltage is contained in the
duty cycle of the pulse train appearing at the output of the comparator. This duty cycle data can be recovered as a data-word
using a subsequent digital filter stage. The sampling frequency of
the modulator loop is many times higher than the bandwidth
of the input signal. The integrator in the modulator shapes the
quantization noise (which results from the analog-to-digital
conversion) so that the noise is pushed toward one-half of the
modulator frequency.

Digital Filter
The output of the - modulator feeds directly into the digital
filter. The digital filter then band-limits the response to a frequency significantly lower than one-half of the modulator frequency.
In this manner, the 1-bit output of the comparator is translated
into a band-limited, low noise output from the ADuC834 ADCs.
The ADuC834 filter is a low-pass, Sinc3 or (SIN x/x)3 filter
whose primary function is to remove the quantization noise
introduced at the modulator. The cutoff frequency and decimated
output data rate of the filter are programmable via the SF (Sinc
Filter) SFR as described in Table VIII.

It should also be noted that rejection of mains-related frequency
components, i.e., 50 Hz and 60 Hz, is seen to be at a level of

ADuC834
ADC Chopping
input voltages provided to the input of the modulator during
calibration. The result of the zero-scale calibration conversion is
stored in the Offset Calibration Registers for the appropriate
ADC. The result of the full-scale calibration conversion is stored
in the Gain Calibration Registers for the appropriate ADC.
With these readings, the calibration logic can calculate the offset
and the gain slope for the input-to-output transfer function of
the converter.
Both ADCs on the ADuC834 implement a chopping scheme
whereby the ADC repeatedly reverses its inputs. The decimated
digital output words from the Sinc3 filters therefore have a
positive offset and negative offset term included.
As a result, a final summing stage is included in each ADC so
that each output word from the filter is summed and averaged
with the previous filter output to produce a new valid output
result to be written to the ADC data SFRs. In this way, while
the ADC throughput or update rate is as discussed earlier and
illustrated in Table VIII, the full settling time through the ADC
(or the time to a first conversion result), will actually be given
by 2 tADC.
During an internal zero-scale or full-scale calibration, the respective
zero-scale input and full-scale input are automatically connected
to the ADC input pins internally to the device. A system calibration, however, expects the system zero-scale and system full-scale
voltages to be applied to the external ADC pins before the calibration mode is initiated. In this way, external ADC errors are
taken into account and minimized as a result of system calibration.
It should also be noted that to optimize calibration accuracy, all
ADuC834 ADC calibrations are carried out automatically at the
slowest update rate.
The chopping scheme incorporated in the ADuC834 ADC
results in excellent dc offset and offset drift specifications and is
extremely beneficial in applications where drift, noise rejection,
and optimum EMI rejection are important factors.
Calibration
The ADuC834 provides four calibration modes that can be
programmed via the mode bits in the ADCMODE SFR detailed
in Table V. In fact, every ADuC834 has already been factory
calibrated. The resultant Offset and Gain calibration coefficients for both the primary and auxiliary ADCs are stored
on-chip in manufacturing-specific Flash/EE memory locations.
At power-on or after reset, these factory calibration coefficients
are automatically downloaded to the calibration registers in the
ADuC834 SFR space. Each ADC (primary and auxiliary) has
dedicated calibration SFRs, these have been described earlier as
part of the general ADC SFR description. However, the factory
calibration values in the ADC calibration SFRs will be overwritten if any one of the four calibration options are initiated and
that ADC is enabled via the ADC enable bits in ADCMODE.
Even though an internal offset calibration mode is described
below, it should be recognized that both ADCs are chopped.
This chopping scheme inherently minimizes offset and means
that an internal offset calibration should never be required. Also,
because factory 5 V/25°C gain calibration coefficients are automatically present at power-on, an internal full-scale calibration
will only be required if the part is being operated at 3 V or at
temperatures significantly different from 25°C.
The ADuC834 offers internal or system calibration facilities. For
full calibration to occur on the selected ADC, the calibration
logic must record the modulator output for two different input
conditions. These are zero-scale and full-scale points. These
points are derived by performing a conversion on the different
Internally in the ADuC834, the coefficients are normalized
before being used to scale the words coming out of the digital
filter. The offset calibration coefficient is subtracted from the
result prior to the multiplication by the gain coefficient.
From an operational point of view, a calibration should be
treated like another ADC conversion. A zero-scale calibration
(if required) should always be carried out before a full-scale
calibration. System software should monitor the relevant ADC
RDY0/1 bit in the ADCSTAT SFR to determine end of calibration via a polling sequence or interrupt driven routine.
NONVOLATILE FLASH/EE MEMORY
Flash/EE Memory Overview
The ADuC834 incorporates Flash/EE memory technology on-chip
to provide the user with nonvolatile, in-circuit reprogrammable,
code and data memory space. Flash/EE memory is a relatively
recent type of nonvolatile memory technology and is based on a
single transistor cell architecture. This technology is basically an
outgrowth of EPROM technology and was developed through
the late 1980s. Flash/EE memory takes the flexible in-circuit
reprogrammable features of EEPROM and combines them with
the space efficient/density features of EPROM. (See Figure 15).
Because Flash/EE technology is based on a single transistor cell
architecture, a Flash memory array, like EPROM, can be implemented to achieve the space efficiencies or memory densities
required by a given design.

ADuC834
Like EEPROM, Flash memory can be programmed in-system at
a byte level, although it must first be erased; the erase being
performed in page blocks. Thus, Flash memory is often and
more correctly referred to as Flash/EE memory.
EPROM
TECHNOLOGY
As indicated in the specification pages of this data sheet, the
ADuC834 Flash/EE memory endurance qualification has been
carried out in accordance with JEDEC Specification A117 over
the industrial temperature range of –40°C, +25°C, +85°C, and
+125°C. The results allow the specification of a minimum
endurance figure over supply and temperature of 100,000
cycles, with an endurance figure of 700,000 cycles being typical
of operation at 25°C.

SPACE EFFICIENT/

In reliability qualification, every byte in both the program and

Flash/EE memory.

FLASH/EE MEMORY

Retention quantifies the ability of the Flash/EE memory to retain
its programmed data over time. Again, the ADuC834 has been
qualified in accordance with the formal JEDEC Retention Lifetime Specification (A117) at a specific junction temperature
(T J = 55°C). As part of this qualification procedure, the
Flash/EE memory is cycled to its specified endurance limit
described above, before data retention is characterized. This
means that the Flash/EE memory is guaranteed to retain its data
for its full specified retention lifetime every time the Flash/EE
memory is reprogrammed. It should also be noted that retention
lifetime, based on an activation energy of 0.6 eV, will derate
with TJ as shown in Figure 16.
Figure 15. Flash/EE Memory Development
Overall, Flash/EE memory represents a step closer to the ideal
memory device that includes nonvolatility, in-circuit programmability, high density, and low cost. Incorporated in the
ADuC834, Flash/EE memory technology allows the user to
update program code space in-circuit, without the need to replace
onetime programmable (OTP) devices at remote operating nodes.
Flash/EE Memory and the ADuC834
The ADuC834 provides two arrays of Flash/EE memory for
user applications. 62 Kbytes of Flash/EE Program space are
provided on-chip to facilitate code execution without any external discrete ROM device requirements. The program memory
can be programmed in-circuit, using the serial download mode
provided, using conventional third party memory programmers,
or via any user defined protocol in User Download (ULOAD) Mode.

A 4 Kbyte Flash/EE Data Memory space is also provided on-chip.
This may be used as a general-purpose, nonvolatile scratchpad
area. User access to this area is via a group of seven SFRs. This
space can be programmed at a byte level, although it must first
be erased in 4-byte pages.
ADuC834 Flash/EE Memory Reliability
The Flash/EE Program and Data Memory arrays on the ADuC834
are fully qualified for two key Flash/EE memory characteristics,
namely Flash/EE Memory Cycling Endurance and Flash/EE
Memory Data Retention.
Endurance quantifies the ability of the Flash/EE memory to be
cycled through many Program, Read, and Erase cycles. In real

The ADuC834 contains a 64 Kbyte array of Flash/EE program
memory. The lower 62 Kbytes of this program memory is available to the user, and can be used for program storage or indeed
as additional NV data memory.
The parallel programming mode is fully compatible with conventional third party Flash or EEPROM device programmers. A block
diagram of the external pin configuration required to support parallel
programming is shown in Figure 18. In this mode, Ports 0, and 2
operate as the external address bus interface, P3 operates as the
external data bus interface and P1.0 operates as the Write Enable
strobe. Port 1.1, P1.2, P1.3, and P1.4 are used as a general
configuration port that configures the device for various program
and erase operations during parallel programming.
The upper 2 Kbytes of this Flash/EE program memory array
contain permanently embedded firmware, allowing in circuit serial
download, serial debug and nonintrusive single pin emulation.
These 2 Kbytes of embedded firmware also contain a power-on
configuration routine that downloads factory calibrated coefficients to the various calibrated peripherals (ADC, temperature
sensor, current sources, bandgap references and so on).

This 2 Kbyte embedded firmware is hidden from user code.
Attempts to read this space will read 0s, i.e., the embedded firmware

In normal operating mode (power up default) the 62 Kbytes of

The ADuC834 facilitates code download via the standard UART
serial port. The ADuC834 will enter Serial Download mode
after a reset or power cycle if the PSEN pin is pulled low through
an external 1 kΩ resistor. Once in serial download mode, the
hidden embedded download kernel will execute. This allows the
user to download code to the full 62 Kbytes of Flash/EE program
memory while the device is in circuit in its target application
hardware.
A PC serial download executable is provided as part of the
ADuC834 QuickStart development system. Appliction Note
uC004 fully describes the serial download protocol that is used
by the embedded download kernel. This Appliction Note is
available at www.analog.com/microconverter.
Figure 18. Flash/EE Memory Parallel Programming
User Download Mode (ULOAD)
In Figure 17 we can see that it was possible to use the 62 Kbytes
of Flash/EE program memory available to the user as one single
block of memory. In this mode all of the Flash/EE memory is
read only to user code.
However, the Flash/EE program memory can also be written to
during runtime simply by entering ULOAD mode. In ULOAD
mode, the lower 56 Kbytes of program memory can be erased
and reprogrammed by user software as shown in Figure 19.
ULOAD mode can be used to upgrade your code in the field via
any user defined download protocol. Configuring the SPI port on
the ADuC834 as a slave, it is possible to completely reprogram
the 56 Kbytes of Flash/EE program memory in only 5 seconds.
See Application Note uC007.

REV. B
ADuC834
Alternatively ULOAD Mode can be used to save data to the
56 Kbytes of Flash/EE memory. This can be extremely useful in
datalogging applications where the ADuC834 can provide up to
60 Kbytes of NV data memory on-chip (4 Kbytes of dedicated
Flash/EE data memory also exist).
The upper 6 Kbytes of the 62 Kbytes of Flash/EE program
memory is only programmable via serial download or parallel
programming. This means that this space appears as read only
to user code. Therefore, it cannot be accidently erased or reprogrammed by erroneous code execution. This makes it very
suitable to use the 6 Kbytes as a bootloader. A Bootload Enable
option exists in the serial downloader to “Always RUN from
E000h after Reset.” If using a bootloader, this option is recommended to ensure that the bootloader always executes correct
code after reset.
Programming the Flash/EE program memory via ULOAD
mode is described in more detail in the description of ECON
and also in Application Note uC007.

Flash/EE Program Memory Security
The ADuC834 facilitates three modes of Flash/EE program
memory security. These modes can be independently activated,
restricting access to the internal code space. These security
modes can be enabled as part of serial download protocol, as
described in Application Note uC004, or via parallel programming. The ADuC834 offers the following security modes:
Lock Mode
This mode locks the code memory, disabling parallel programming of the program memory. However, reading the memory in
Parallel Mode and reading the memory via a MOVC command
from external memory are still allowed. This mode is deactivated
by initiating an “erase code and data” command in Serial Download or Parallel Programming modes.
Secure Mode
This mode locks the code memory, disabling parallel programming of the program memory. Reading/Verifying the memory in
Parallel Mode and reading the internal memory via a MOVC
command from external memory is also disabled. This mode is
deactivated by initiating an “erase code and data” command in
Serial Download or Parallel Programming Modes.
Serial Safe Mode
This mode disables serial download capability on the device. If
Serial Safe mode is activated and an attempt is made to reset
the part into Serial Download mode, i.e., RESET asserted and
deasserted with PSEN low, the part will interpret the serial
download reset as a normal reset only. It will therefore not enter
Serial Download mode, but only execute a normal reset sequence.
Serial Safe mode can only be disabled by initiating an “erase
code and data” command in parallel programming mode.

PAGE ADDRESS
(EADRH/L)
The 4 Kbytes of Flash/EE data memory is configured as 1024 pages,
each of 4 bytes. As with the other ADuC834 peripherals, the
interface to this memory space is via a group of registers mapped
in the SFR space. A group of four data registers (EDATA1–4)
is used to hold the 4 bytes of data at each page. The page is
addressed via the two registers EADRH and EADRL. Finally,
ECON is an 8-bit control register that may be written with one
of nine Flash/EE memory access commands to trigger various
read, write, erase, and verify functions.

Programming the Flash/EE Data Memory
A user wishes to program F3H into the second byte on Page 03H
of the Flash/EE data memory space while preserving the other
three bytes already in this page.
A typical program of the Flash/EE data array will involve:
1. setting EADRH/L with the page address
2. writing the data to be programmed to the EDATA1–4
3. writing the ECON SFR with the appropriate command
Step 1: Set Up the Page Address
The two address registers EADRH and EADRL hold the high
byte address and the low byte address of the page to be addressed.
The assembly language to set up the address may appear as:
MOV EADRH,#0 ; Set Page Address Pointer
MOV EADRL,#03H
Flash/EE Memory Timing
Step 2: Set Up the EDATA Registers
The four values to be written into the page into the 4 SFRs
EDATA1–4. Unfortunately we do not know three of them. Thus it
is necessary to read the current page and overwrite the second byte.
; Read Page into EDATA1-4
MOV ECON,#1
MOV EDATA2,#0F3H ; Overwrite byte 2
Step 3: Program Page
A byte in the Flash/EE array can only be programmed if it has
previously been erased. To be more specific, a byte can only be
programmed if it already holds the value FFH. Because of the
Flash/EE architecture, this erase must happen at a page level.
Therefore, a minimum of 4 bytes (1 page) will be erased when
an erase command is initiated. Once the page is erased, we can
program the 4 bytes in-page and then perform a verification of
the data.
; ERASE Page
MOV ECON,#5
; WRITE Page
MOV ECON,#2
; VERIFY Page
MOV ECON,#4
; Check if ECON=0 (OK!)
MOV A,ECON
JNZ ERROR
REV. B
Note: although the 4 Kbytes of Flash/EE data memory is shipped
from the factory pre-erased, i.e., Byte locations set to FFH, it is
nonetheless good programming practice to include an erase-all
routine as part of any configuration/setup code running on the
ADuC834. An “ERASE-ALL” command consists of writing
“06H” to the ECON SFR, which initiates an erase of the 4-Kbyte
Flash/EE array. This command coded in 8051 assembly would
appear as:
MOV ECON,#06H
;
Erase all Command
; 2 ms Duration
Typical program and erase times for the ADuC834 are as follows:
Normal Mode (operating on Flash/EE data memory)
READPAGE (4 bytes)
– 5 machine cycles
WRITEPAGE (4 bytes)
– 380 s
VERIFYPAGE (4 bytes)
– 5 machine cycles
ERASEPAGE (4 bytes)
– 2 ms
ERASEALL (4 Kbytes)
– 2 ms
READBYTE (1 byte)
– 3 machine cycles
WRITEBYTE (1 byte)
– 200 s
ULOAD Mode (operating on Flash/EE program memory)
WRITEPAGE (256 bytes)
– 15 ms
ERASEPAGE (64 bytes)
– 2 ms
ERASEALL (56 Kbytes)
– 2 ms
WRITEBYTE (1 byte)
– 200 s
It should be noted that a given mode of operation is initiated as
soon as the command word is written to the ECON SFR. The
core microcontroller operation on the ADuC834 is idled until
the requested Program/Read or Erase mode is completed.
In practice, this means that even though the Flash/EE memory
mode of operation is typically initiated with a two-machine cycle
MOV instruction (to write to the ECON SFR), the next instruction
will not be executed until the Flash/EE operation is complete.
This means that the core will not respond to interrupt requests
until the Flash/EE operation is complete, although the core
peripheral functions like Counter/Timers will continue to count
and time as configured throughout this period.

ADuC834
DAC
The ADuC834 incorporates a 12-bit, voltage output DAC
on-chip. It has a rail-to-rail voltage output buffer capable of driving
10 kΩ/100 pF. It has two selectable ranges, 0 V to VREF (the internal bandgap 2.5 V reference) and 0 V to AVDD. It can operate in
12-bit or 8-bit mode. The DAC has a control register, DACCON,
and two data registers, DACH/L. The DAC output can be
programmed to appear at Pin 3 or Pin 12. It should be noted
that in 12-bit mode, the DAC voltage output will be updated as
soon as the DACL data SFR has been written; therefore, the
DAC data registers should be updated as DACH first, followed
by DACL. The 12-bit DAC data should be written into DACH/L
right-justified such that DACL contains the lower eight bits,
and the lower nibble of DACH contains the upper four bits.

Figure 21. Resistor String DAC Functional Equivalent
Features of this architecture include inherent guaranteed monotonicity and excellent differential linearity. As illustrated in
Figure 21, the reference source for the DAC is user selectable in
software. It can be either AVDD or VREF. In 0-to-AVDD mode,
the DAC output transfer function spans from 0 V to the voltage
at the AVDD pin. In 0-to-VREF mode, the DAC output transfer
function spans from 0 V to the internal VREF (2.5 V). The DAC
output buffer amplifier features a true rail-to-rail output stage
implementation. This means that, unloaded, each output is
capable of swinging to within less than 100 mV of both AVDD
and ground. Moreover, the DAC’s linearity specification (when
driving a 10 kΩ resistive load to ground) is guaranteed through
the full transfer function except codes 0 to 48 in 0-to-VREF
mode and 0 to 100 and 3950 to 4095 in 0-to-VDD mode.
Linearity degradation near ground and VDD is caused by saturation
of the output amplifier, and a general representation of its effects
(neglecting offset and gain error) is illustrated in Figure 22. The
dotted line in Figure 22 indicates the ideal transfer function, and
the solid line represents what the transfer function might look
like with endpoint nonlinearities due to saturation of the output
amplifier.

ADuC834
Note that Figure 22 represents a transfer function in 0-to-VDD
mode only. In 0-to-VREF mode (with VREF < VDD), the lower
nonlinearity would be similar, but the upper portion of the
transfer function would follow the “ideal” line right to the end,
showing no signs of endpoint linearity errors.

Figure 22. Endpoint Nonlinearities Due to Amplifier
Saturation
The endpoint nonlinearities conceptually illustrated in Figure 22
get worse as a function of output loading. Most of the ADuC834
data sheet specifications assume a 10 kΩ resistive load to
ground at the DAC output. As the output is forced to source or
sink more current, the nonlinear regions at the top or bottom
(respectively) of Figure 22 become larger. With larger current
demands, this can significantly limit output voltage swing.
Figures 23 and 24 illustrate this behavior. It should be noted
that the upper trace in each of these figures is only valid for an
output range selection of 0-to-AVDD. In 0-to-VREF mode, DAC
loading will not cause high-side voltage drops as long as the
reference voltage remains below the upper trace in the corresponding figure. For example, if AVDD = 3 V and VREF = 2.5 V,
the high-side voltage will not be affected by loads less than 5 mA.
But somewhere around 7 mA, the upper curve in Figure 24
drops below 2.5 V (VREF) indicating that at these higher currents,
the output will not be capable of reaching VREF.

For larger loads, the current drive capability may not be
sufficient. In order to increase the source and sink current
capability of the DAC, an external buffer should be added, as
shown in Figure 25.
ADuC834

Figure 25. Buffering the DAC Output
The DAC output buffer also features a high impedance disable
function. In the chip’s default power-on state, the DAC is
disabled and its output is in a high impedance state (or “threestate”) where they remain inactive until enabled in software.
This means that if a zero output is desired during power-up or
power-down transient conditions, a pull-down resistor must be
added to each DAC output. Assuming this resistor is in place,
the DAC output will remain at ground potential whenever the
DAC is disabled.

PULSEWIDTH MODULATOR (PWM)
The PWM on the ADuC834 is a highly flexible PWM offering
programmable resolution and input clock, and can be configured for any one of six different modes of operation. Two of
these modes allow the PWM to be configured as a - DAC

PWM0H/L and PWM1H/L are the data registers that determine
the duty cycles of the PWM outputs at P1.0 and P1.1.
To use the PWM user software, first write to PWMCON to
select the PWM mode of operation and the PWM input clock.
Writing to PWMCON also resets the PWM counter. In any of
the 16-bit modes of operation (Modes 1, 3, 4, 6), user software
should write to the PWM0L or PWM1L SFRs first. This value
is written to a hidden SFR. Writing to the PWM0H or PWM1H
SFRs updates both the PWMxH and the PWMxL SFRs but
does not change the outputs until the end of the PWM cycle in
progress. The values written to these 16-bit registers are then
used in the next PWM cycle.

In Mode 1, both the pulse length and the cycle time (period) are

PWM1H/L sets the period of the output waveform. Reducing
PWM1H/L reduces the resolution of the PWM output but
increases the maximum output rate of the PWM (e.g., setting
PWM1H/L to 65536 gives a 16-bit PWM with a maximum
output rate of 192 Hz (12.583 MHz/65536). Setting PWM1H/L
to 4096 gives a 12-bit PWM with a maximum output rate of
3072 Hz (12.583 MHz/4096)).
PWM0H/L sets the duty cycle of the PWM output waveform,

Mode 3: Twin 16-Bit PWM
In Mode 3, the PWM counter is fixed to count from 0 to 65536
giving a fixed 16-bit PWM. Operating from the 12.58 MHz core
clock results in a PWM output rate of 192 Hz. The duty cycle
of the PWM outputs at P1.0 and P1.1 are independently
programmable.
As shown below, while the PWM counter is less than PWM0H/L,
the output of PWM0 (P1.0) is high. Once the PWM counter
equals PWM0H/L, then PWM0 (P1.0) goes low and remains
low until the PWM counter rolls over.
Similarly, while the PWM counter is less than PWM1H/L, the
output of PWM1 (P1.1) is high. Once the PWM counter equals
PWM1H/L, then PWM1 (P1.1) goes low and remains low until
the PWM counter rolls over.
In this mode, both PWM outputs are synchronized (i.e., once the
PWM counter rolls over to 0, both PWM0 (P1.0) and PWM1
(P1.1) will go high).
65536
PWM COUNTER
PWM1L sets the period for both PWM outputs. Typically this
will be set to 255 (FFh) to give an 8-bit PWM, although it is
possible to reduce this as necessary. A value of 100 could be
loaded here to give a percentage PWM (i.e., the PWM is accurate to 1%).

The outputs of the PWM at P1.0 and P1.1 are shown in the

PWM1 (P1.1) goes high when the PWM counter equals PWM1H
and goes low again when the PWM counter equals PWM0H.
Setting PWM1H to 0 ensures that both PWM outputs start

the key difference is that Mode 6 provides return to zero (RZ)
Σ-∆ DAC output. Mode 4 provides non-return-to-zero Σ-∆ DAC
outputs. The RZ mode ensures that any difference in the rise
and fall times will not affect the Σ-∆ DAC INL. However, the
RZ mode halves the dynamic range of the Σ-∆ DAC outputs from
0→AVDD to 0→AVDD/2. For best results, this mode should be
used with a PWM clock divider of 4.

that the modulators and the core will be synchronous, regardless
of the core clock rate. The PLL control register is PLLCON.

ADuC834
TIME INTERVAL COUNTER (WAKE-UP/RTC TIMER)
A time interval counter (TIC) is provided on-chip for:
• periodically waking the part up from power-down
• implementing a Real-Time Clock
• counting longer intervals than the standard 8051 compatible
timers are capable of
sheet.) If the ADuC834 is in power-down mode, again with TIC
interrupt enabled, the TII bit will wake up the device and resume
code execution by vectoring directly to the TIC interrupt service
vector address at 0053H. The TIC-related SFRs are described
below with a block diagram of the TIC shown in Figure 33.
The TIC is capable of timeout intervals ranging from 1/128th
second to 255 hours. Furthermore, this counter is clocked by the
crystal oscillator rather than the PLL and thus has the ability to
remain active in power-down mode and time long power-down
intervals. This has obvious applications for remote battery-powered
sensors where regular widely spaced readings are required.
The TIC counter can easily be used to generate a real-time
clock. The hardware will count in seconds, minutes, and hours;
however, user software will have to count in days, months, and
years. The current time can be written to the timebase SFRs
(HTHSEC, SEC, MIN, and HOUR) while TCEN is low. When
the RTC timer is enabled (TCEN is set), the TCEN bit itself
and the HTHSEC, SEC, MIN, and HOUR Registers are not
reset to 00H after a hardware or watchdog timer reset. This is to
prevent the need to recalibrate the real-time clock after a reset.
However, these registers will be reset to 00H after a power cycle
(independent of TCEN) or after any reset if TCEN is clear.
Six SFRs are associated with the time interval counter, TIMECON
being its control register. Depending on the configuration of the
IT0 and IT1 bits in TIMECON, the selected time counter register
overflow will clock the interval counter. When this counter is
equal to the time interval value loaded in the INTVAL SFR, the
TII bit (TIMECON.2) is set and generates an interrupt if enabled.

WATCHDOG TIMER
The purpose of the watchdog timer is to generate a device reset or
interrupt within a reasonable amount of time if the ADuC834
enters an erroneous state, possibly due to a programming error,
electrical noise, or RFI. The watchdog function can be disabled
by clearing the WDE (Watchdog Enable) bit in the Watchdog
Control (WDCON) SFR. When enabled; the watchdog circuit
will generate a system reset or interrupt (WDS) if the user program
fails to set the Watchdog (WDE) bit within a predetermined

timer itself is a 16-bit counter that is clocked at 32.768 kHz. The
watchdog timeout interval can be adjusted via the PRE3–0 bits
in WDCON. Full control and status of the watchdog timer
function can be controlled via the Watchdog Timer Control SFR

POWER SUPPLY MONITOR
As its name suggests, the Power Supply Monitor, once enabled,
monitors both supplies (AVDD or DVDD) on the ADuC834. It will
indicate when any of the supply pins drop below one of four
user-selectable voltage trip points from 2.63 V to 4.63 V. For
correct operation of the Power Supply Monitor function, AVDD
must be equal to or greater than 2.7 V. Monitor function is
controlled via the PSMCON SFR. If enabled via the IEIP2 SFR,
the monitor will interrupt the core using the PSMI bit in the
PSMCON SFR. This bit will not be cleared until the failing power
supply has returned above the trip point for at least 250 ms. This
monitor function allows the user to save working registers to avoid
possible data loss due to the low supply condition, and also
ensures that normal code execution will not resume until a safe
supply level has been well established. The supply monitor is also
protected against spurious glitches triggering the interrupt circuit.

ADuC834
SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE
MISO (Master In, Slave Out Data I/O Pin), Pin 14
The ADuC834 integrates a complete hardware Serial Peripheral
Interface (SPI) interface on-chip. SPI is an industry-standard
synchronous serial interface that allows eight bits of data to be
synchronously transmitted and received simultaneously, i.e., full
duplex. It should be noted that the SPI pins SCLOCK and MOSI
are multiplexed with the I2C pins SCLOCK and SDATA. The
pins are controlled via the I2CCON SFR only if SPE is clear.
SPI can be configured for master or slave operation and typically
consists of four pins, namely:
The MISO (master in slave out) pin is configured as an input
line in Master mode and an output line in Slave mode. The
MISO line on the master (data in) should be connected to the
MISO line in the slave device (data out). The data is transferred
as byte-wide (8-bit) serial data, MSB first.
SCLOCK (Serial Clock I/O Pin), Pin 26
The master clock (SCLOCK) is used to synchronize the data
being transmitted and received through the MOSI and MISO
data lines. A single data bit is transmitted and received in each
SCLOCK period. Therefore, a byte is transmitted/received after
eight SCLOCK periods. The SCLOCK pin is configured as an
output in master mode and as an input in Slave mode. In master
mode the bit-rate, polarity, and phase of the clock are controlled
by the CPOL, CPHA, SPR0, and SPR1 bits in the SPICON SFR
(see Table XXI). In Slave mode the SPICON register will have to
be configured with the phase and polarity (CPHA and CPOL) as
the master as for both Master and Slave mode the data is transmitted
on one edge of the SCLOCK signal and sampled on the other.
MOSI (Master Out, Slave In Pin), Pin 27
The MOSI (master out slave in) pin is configured as an output
line in Master mode and an input line in Slave mode. The MOSI
line on the master (data out) should be connected to the MOSI line
in the slave device (data in). The data is transferred as byte-wide
(8-bit) serial data, MSB first.
SS (Slave Select Input Pin), Pin 13
The Slave Select (SS) input pin is only used when the ADuC834
is configured in SPI Slave mode. This line is active low. Data is only
received or transmitted in Slave mode when the SS pin is low,
allowing the ADuC834 to be used in single master, multislave SPI
configurations. If CPHA = 1, the SS input may be permanently
pulled low. With CPHA = 0, the SS input must be driven low
before the first bit in a byte wide transmission or reception and
return high again after the last bit in that byte wide transmission
or reception. In SPI Slave mode, the logic level on the external
SS pin (Pin 13), can be read via the SPR0 bit in the SPICON SFR.
The following SFR registers are used to control the SPI interface.

Using the SPI Interface
SPI Interface—Master Mode
Depending on the configuration of the bits in the SPICON SFR
shown in Table XXI, the ADuC834 SPI interface will transmit
or receive data in a number of possible modes. Figure 34 shows
all possible ADuC834 SPI configurations and the timing relationships and synchronization between the signals involved.
Also shown in this figure is the SPI interrupt bit (ISPI) and how
it is triggered at the end of each byte-wide communication.
In Master Mode, the SCLOCK pin is always an output and
generates a burst of eight clocks whenever user code writes to
the SPIDAT Register. The SCLOCK bit rate is determined by
SPR0 and SPR1 in SPICON. It should also be noted that the
SS Pin is not used in Master mode. If the ADuC834 needs to
assert the SS Pin on an external slave device, a port digital output
pin should be used.

In Master Mode, a byte transmission or reception is initiated by
a write to SPIDAT. Eight clock periods are generated via the
SCLOCK pin and the SPIDAT byte being transmitted via
MOSI. With each SCLOCK period, a data bit is also sampled
via MISO. After eight clocks, the transmitted byte will have
been completely transmitted and the input byte will be waiting
in the input shift register. The ISPI flag will be set automatically
and an interrupt will occur if enabled. The value in the shift
register will be latched into SPIDAT.
In Slave Mode, the SCLOCK is an input. The SS pin must also
be driven low externally during the byte communication. Transmission is also initiated by a write to SPIDAT. In Slave Mode,
a data bit is transmitted via MISO and a data bit is received via
MOSI through each input SCLOCK period. After eight clocks,
the transmitted byte will have been completely transmitted and
the input byte will be waiting in the input shift register. The ISPI
flag will be set automatically and an interrupt will occur if enabled.
The value in the shift register will be latched into SPIDAT
only when the transmission/reception of a byte has been completed. The end of transmission occurs after the eighth clock has
been received, if CPHA = 1 or when SS returns high if CPHA = 0.

I2C SERIAL INTERFACE
The ADuC834 supports a fully licensed* I2C serial interface. The
I2C interface is implemented as a full hardware slave and software
master. SDATA (Pin 27) is the data I/O pin and SCLOCK
(Pin 26) is the serial clock. These two pins are shared with the
MOSI and SCLOCK pins of the on-chip SPI interface. Therefore
the user can only enable one or the other interface at any given
time (see SPE in Table XXI). Application Note uC001 describes
the operation of this interface as implemented and is available from

Once enabled in I2C slave mode, the slave controller waits for a
START condition. If the ADuC834 detects a valid start condition,
followed by a valid address, and by the R/W bit, the I2CI interrupt bit will get automatically set by hardware.
The main features of the MicroConverter I2C interface are:
• Only two bus lines are required; a serial data line (SDATA)
and a serial clock line (SCLOCK).
•
An I2C master can communicate with multiple slave devices.
Because each slave device has a unique 7-bit address then
single master/slave relationships can exist at all times even in
a multislave environment (Figure 35).
