3 Functional Description
Figure 3-1 – FT51A Block Diagram
The FT51A acts as a USB hub supporting two downstream ports; the internal 8051 core and other
peripherals (SPI, UART, etc.) and an external downstream port (typical devices can be a mouse,
keyboard, mass storage device, etc.). The hub can optionally be disabled (under register control)
resulting in the 8051 core appearing at the upstream port.
3.1
3.1.1
Key Features
Functional Integration
Fully integrated MTP memory with built in shadow RAM for fast memory access , internally generated
clock, Power-On-Reset (POR) and LDO regulators.
3.1.2
8051 Core
The FT51A is based around the industry standard 8051 microcontroller capable of running at a maximum
frequency of 48MHz. The core is an ultra-high performance, speed optimized single -chip 8-bit embedded
controller dedicated for operation with fast on-chip memories.

3.1.2.1
C learance N o.: FT DI#420
On-chip Debugger
The 8051 works with a high‐performance “Hardware Assisted Debugger” which manages the
communication between the core and the software.
3.1.2.2
UART / FTDI UART
There are two UARTs in the system – one designed by FTDI and the second incorporated within the 8051
core. The 8051 UART has a maximum baud rate of up to 60kbps. The FTDI UART gives speeds up to
3Mbps.
When the data and control bus are configured in UART mode, the interface implements a standard
asynchronous serial UART port with full modem control. The UART can support baud rates from 183 baud
to 3 Mbaud. The maximum UART speed is limited by the CPU clock. The following maximum UART speed
applies:

Functional Block Descriptions
The following paragraphs detail each function within the FT51A. Please refer to the block diagram shown
in Figure 3-1 – FT51A Block Diagram.
3.2.1
8051 Ports 0 - 3
The 8051 core has four 8-bit bidirectional ports: P0, P1, P2 and P3. These ports can be fully or partially
mapped to external pins on the AIO and DIO bus. Firmware can change the pin mapping through IOMUX
programming. Table 3-1 shows the default pin mapping for all the 4 ports on the LQFP44 and WQFN48
packages.

PLL Control
The block provides an internally generated 48MHz clock to the system without the need of an external
reference clock. This block is trimmed at factory test to 48MHz. During USB transactions the PLL will
provide an accurate clock, locked to the incoming USB data rate.
3.2.4
16KB Multi-Time Programmable (MTP) memory
16K bytes of MTP memory are available for firmware programming. Code stored with the MTP memory is
copied to the Shadow RAM on power up or an external reset. See section 3.2.6.
3.2.5
8KB Data RAM
8K bytes of data RAM are provided.
3.2.6
16KB Shadow RAM
To facilitate fast program memory access, limit any bottlenecks and to allow fast programming times in a
debug environment, a shadow RAM exists that the CPU will run from. The Shadow RAM has the following
features:
The contents of the MTP are copied to the shadow RAM after a system reset – i.e. a POR reset or
a pin reset.
A single command (register write access) initiates a hard copy of the program memo ry – i.e. the
contents of the shadow RAM are copied to the MTP.
3.2.7
Special Function Register
The 8051 core has a special function register area (SFR) and is limited to 128 locations. This area
facilitates access to IO registers and the USB Full-Speed Device Controller command/data through indirect addressing method.
3.2.8
IO Registers
The FT51A contains approximately 300 IO registers. See Appendix C for a full list of the IO registers.
3.2.9
LDO Regulators
The +3.3V LDO regulator generates the +3.3V re ference voltage for driving the USB transceiver cell
output buffers. It requires an external decoupling capacitor to be attached to the regulator output pin.
The main function of the LDO is to power the USB Transceiver and the Reset Generator Cells rather than
to power external logic. However, it can be used to supply external circuitry requiring a +3.3V nominal
supply with a maximum current of 50mA.
The +1.8V LDO regulator generates the +1.8V supply voltage for internal digital circuits.
3.2.10
BCD Detect
Special circuitry inside the FT51A detects when the USB upstream port is connected to a dedicated
charging port. When it detects that it is connected to a dedicated charging port, the FT51A can use a DIO
or AIO pin to notify a microcontroller or logic on the application board which in turn controls the battery
charging circuits.

USB XCVR
The USB Transceiver Cell provides the USB 2.0 full-speed physical interface to the USB cable. The output
drivers provide +3.3V level slew rate control signalling, whilst a differential input receiver and two single
ended input receivers provide USB data in, Single -Ended-0 (SE0) and USB reset detection conditions
respectfully. This function also incorporates a 1.5kΩ pull up resistor on the USBUPDP pin.
3.2.12
IO Multiplexer
With the addition of the IO multiplexer any function can be configured to any DIO pin, excluding the
analogue ADC function which is constrained to the AIO pins. All other digital functionality is
recommended to map to DIO pins. The IO multiplexer allows the designer to select which peripherals are
connected to which IO pins. In order to assign a signal to a particular pin, two register writes are
required, one to select the signal and the other to select the IO pin. The FT51A Programmer’s Guide
details the pins and signals which can be connected.
The selectable peripheral interfaces are only limited by the number of IO pins available. The number of
IOs available is dependent on the package type.
Table 3-2 lists the peripherals which can be multiplexed to IO and the typical number of pins required for
each one. The designer can choose any mix of peripheral configurations as long as they are within the
specific package IO pin count.

I2C Master
The FT51A provides an interface between the core and an I2C bus. It can be programmed to operate with
arbitration and clock synchronization allowing it to operate in multi‐master systems. I2C Master supports
transmission speeds up to 3.4 Mb/s including Normal, Fast and High Speed modes .

I2C Slave
The FT51A provides an interface between the core and an I2C bus. It can work as a slave receiver or
transmitter depending on the working mode determined by the core. The core incorporates all features
required by the I2C specification. The Slave supports all the transmission modes: Standard, Fa st, Fast‐
plus and High Speed. Clock stretching is supported.
3.2.15
SPI Slave
The Serial Peripheral Interface Bus is an industry standard communications interface. Devices
communicate in Master / Slave mode, with the Master initiating the data transfer.
The SPI slave module has four signals – clock, slave select, MOSI (master out – slave in) and MISO
(master in – slave out).

Figure 3-2 – SPI Master
The SPI Master interface is used to interface to applications such as SD Cards.
The main purpose of the SPI Master block is to transfer data between an external SPI interface and the
FT51A. It does this under the control of the CPU and DMA engine via the o n-chip IO bus.
The SPI master module has seven signals – clock, slave select 0..3, MOSI (master out – slave in) and
MISO (master in – slave out).
The SPI Master protocol by default does not support any form of handshaking and the only available
mode is unmanaged.
The SPI Master clock can operate up to half of the CPU system clock:
CPU running at 48 Mhz would set the SPI maximum clock to 24 Mhz
CPU running at 24 Mhz would set the SPI maximum clock to 12 Mhz
CPU running at 12 Mhz would set the SPI maximum clock to 6 Mhz
3.2.17
Debugger
The purpose of the debugger interface is to provide the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with
the following capabilities:
MTP Program.
Application debug - application code can have breakpoints, be single stepped and can be halted.
Detailed internal debug - memory read/write access.
The single wire interface has the following features:

245 FIFO
The 245 FIFO interface operating in asynchronous mode has an eight bit data bus, individual read and
write strobes with two hardware flow control signals .
3.2.19
PWM
The Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) block can generate a signal in which parameters such as period and
duty cycle are controlled by the 8051 core. It provides 8 outputs and can generate a core interrupt if set.
The main purpose is to generate PWM signals which can be used to control motors, DC/DC converters,
AC/DC supplies, etc.
3.2.20
Digital IO pins
Up to 16 General Purpose digital IO pins are available depending on the package type.
3.2.21
Analogue IO pins
Up to 16 AIO pins are available depending on the package type. The pin can function in either analogue
or digital mode, but not both modes at the same time .
When in analogue mode all 16 AIO pins can be configured to the ADC mode.

Table 3-3 – AIO Modes
To configure these modes, specific registers of the AIOs must be configured. On top of these modes sits a
global mode which allows multiple control of AIO pins. All 16 pins can be configured depending on the
package type.
3.2.22
ADC
The ADC block can convert the analogue input signal to a digital value and store the value in the
registers. The ADC block can be configured to work in single -ended mode and differential mode. In
single-ended mode, an input signal from any of the AIO pins can be the input to the ADC block, with the
reference voltage connected to VOUT3V3. In differential mode, two AIO pins are used together to form a
pair of differential inputs. The voltage difference between these two pins will be converted to digital
values.

The ADC supports single sample and global sample. In single sample mode only one selected AIO input
will be sampled at a time. In global sample mode, all the selected AIO inputs will be sampled at the same
time.
The sample and hold settling time of the ADC is programmable. Once conversion is done, the respective
interrupt bit will be set, and an interrupt can be generated if enabled.
The accuracy of the ADC convertor is 8-bit.

Figure 5-1 Bus Powered Configuration
Figure 5-1 illustrates the FT51A in a typical USB bus powered design configuration. A USB bus powered
device gets its power from the USB bus. Basic rules for USB bus powered devices are as follows –
i)
ii)
iii)
iv)
On plug-in to USB, the device should draw no more current than 50mA.
In USB Suspend mode the device should draw no more than 500uA.
A device that consumes more than 100mA cannot be plugged into a USB bus powered hub.
No device can draw more than 500mA from the USB bus.
The power descriptors in the internal MTP memory of the FT51A should be programmed to match the
current drawn by the device.
A ferrite bead is connected in series with the USB power supply to reduce EMI noise from the FT51A and
associated circuitry being radiated down the USB cable to the USB host. The value of the Ferrite Bead
depends on the total current drawn by the application. A suitable range of Ferrite Beads is available from
Laird Technologies (http://www.lairdtech.com) for example Laird Technologies Part # MI0805K601R-10.
