CPU and Peripheral Overview
eZ8 CPU Features
The eZ8 CPU, Zilog’s latest 8-bit Central Processing Unit (CPU), meets the continuing
demand for faster and more code-efficient microcontrollers. The eZ8 CPU executes a
superset of the original Z8® instruction set. The features of eZ8 CPU include:
•
Direct register-to-register architecture allows each register to function as an
accumulator, improving execution time and decreasing the required program
memory.
•
Software stack allows much greater depth in subroutine calls and interrupts than
hardware stacks.
•
•
•
Compatible with existing Z8 code.
•
•
Pipelined instruction fetch and execution.
•
•
•
•
New instructions support 12-bit linear addressing of the Register File.
Expanded internal Register File allows access of up to 4 KB.
New instructions improve execution efficiency for code developed using higherlevel programming languages, including C.
New instructions for improved performance including BIT, BSWAP, BTJ, CPC,
LDC, LDCI, LEA, MULT, and SRL.
Up to 10 MIPS operation.
C-Compiler friendly.
2 to 9 clock cycles per instruction.
For more information on eZ8 CPU, refer to eZ8 CPU Core User Manual (UM0128) available for download at www.zilog.com.
10-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter
The optional analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts an analog input signal to a 10-bit
binary number. The ADC accepts inputs from eight different analog input pins in both
single-ended and differential modes. The ADC also features a unity gain buffer when high
input impedance is required.

Low-Power Operational Amplifier
The optional low-power operational amplifier (LPO) is a general-purpose amplifier
primarily targeted for current sense applications. The LPO output may be routed internally
to the ADC or externally to a pin.
Internal Precision Oscillator
The internal precision oscillator (IPO) is a trimmable clock source that requires no
external components.
Temperature Sensor
The optional temperature sensor produces an analog output proportional to the device temperature. This signal can be sent to either the ADC or the analog comparator.
Analog Comparator
The analog comparator compares the signal at an input pin with either an internal programmable voltage reference or a second input pin. The comparator output can be used to
drive either an output pin or to generate an interrupt.
External Crystal Oscillator
The crystal oscillator circuit provides highly accurate clock frequencies with the use of an
external crystal, ceramic resonator or RC network.
Low Voltage Detector
The low voltage detector (LVD) is able to generate an interrupt when the supply voltage
drops below a user-programmable level. The LVD is available on 8-pin devices only.
On-Chip Debugger
The Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series products feature an integrated on-chip debugger
(OCD) accessed via a single-pin interface. The OCD provides a rich-set of debugging
capabilities, such as reading and writing registers, programming Flash memory, setting
breakpoints, and executing code.

Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
The full-duplex universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) is included in all Z8
Encore! XP package types. The UART supports 8- and 9-bit data modes and selectable
parity. The UART also supports multi-drop address processing in hardware. The UART
baud rate generator (BRG) can be configured and used as a basic 16-bit timer.
Timers
Two enhanced 16-bit reloadable timers can be used for timing/counting events or for
motor control operations. These timers provide a 16-bit programmable reload counter and
operate in ONE-SHOT, CONTINUOUS, GATED, CAPTURE, CAPTURE RESTART,
COMPARE, CAPTURE and COMPARE, PWM SINGLE OUTPUT and PWM DUAL
OUTPUT modes.
General-Purpose Input/Output
The Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series features 6 to 25 port pins (Ports A–D) for general- purpose input/output (GPIO). The number of GPIO pins available is a function of package,
and each pin is individually programmable. 5 V tolerant input pins are available on all
I/Os on 8-pin devices and most I/Os on other package types.
Direct LED Drive
The 20- and 28-pin devices support controlled current sinking output pins capable of
driving LEDs without the need for a current limiting resistor. These LED drivers are
independently programmable to four different intensity levels.
Flash Controller
The Flash Controller programs and erases Flash memory. The Flash Controller supports
several protection mechanisms against accidental program and erasure, as well as factory
serialization and read protection.
Non-Volatile Data Storage
The non-volatile data storage (NVDS) uses a hybrid hardware/software scheme to
implement a byte programmable data memory and is capable of over 100,000 write cycles.
Note:
PS022825-0908
Devices with 8 KB Flash memory do not include the NVDS feature.

Interrupt Controller
The Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series products support up to 20 interrupts. These
interrupts consist of 8 internal peripheral interrupts and 12 general-purpose I/O pin
interrupt sources. The interrupts have three levels of programmable interrupt priority.
Reset Controller
The Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series products can be reset using the RESET pin,
Power-On Reset, Watchdog Timer (WDT) time-out, STOP mode exit, or Voltage
Brownout (VBO) warning signal. The RESET pin is bi-directional, that is, it functions as
reset source as well as a reset indicator.

Pin Description
The Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series products are available in a variety of packages styles
and pin configurations. This chapter describes the signals and available pin configurations
for each of the package styles. For information on physical package specifications, see
Packaging on page 241.
Available Packages
The following package styles are available for each device in the Z8 Encore! XP F082A
Series product line:
•
SOIC
– 8-, 20-, and 28-pin
•
PDIP
– 8-, 20-, and 28-pin
•
SSOP
– 20- and 28- pin
•
QFN (this is an MLF-S, a QFN style package with an 8-pin SOIC footprint)
– 8-pin
In addition, the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series devices are available both with and without
advanced analog capability (ADC, temperature sensor and op amp). Devices
Z8F082A, Z8F042A, Z8F022A, and Z8F012A contain the advanced analog, while
devices Z8F081A, Z8F041A, Z8F021A, and Z8F011A do not have the advanced analog
capability.
Pin Configurations
Figure 2 through Figure 4 display the pin configurations for all the packages
available in the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series. See Table 2 on page 11 for a description of
the signals. The analog input alternate functions (ANAx) are not available on the
Z8F081A, Z8F041A, Z8F021A, and Z8F011A devices. The analog supply pins (AVDD
and AVSS) are also not available on these parts, and are replaced by PB6 and PB7.
At reset, all Port A, B and C pins default to an input state. In addition, any alternate
functionality is not enabled, so the pins function as general purpose input ports until
programmed otherwise. At powerup, the PD0 pin defaults to the RESET alternate
function.

Address Space
The eZ8 CPU can access the following three distinct address spaces:
1. The Register File contains addresses for the general-purpose registers and the eZ8
CPU, peripheral, and general-purpose I/O port control registers.
2. The Program Memory contains addresses for all memory locations having executable
code and/or data.
3. The Data Memory contains addresses for all memory locations that contain data only.
These three address spaces are covered briefly in the following subsections. For more
information on eZ8 CPU and its address space, refer to eZ8 CPU Core User Manual
(UM0128) available for download at www.zilog.com.
Register File
The Register File address space in the Z8 Encore!® MCU is 4 KB (4096 bytes). The
Register File is composed of two sections: control registers and general-purpose registers.
When instructions are executed, registers defined as sources are read, and registers defined
as destinations are written. The architecture of the eZ8 CPU allows all general-purpose
registers to function as accumulators, address pointers, index registers, stack areas, or
scratch pad memory.
The upper 256 bytes of the 4 KB Register File address space are reserved for control of the
eZ8 CPU, the on-chip peripherals, and the I/O ports. These registers are located at
addresses from F00H to FFFH. Some of the addresses within the 256 B control register
section are reserved (unavailable). Reading from a reserved Register File address returns
an undefined value. Writing to reserved Register File addresses is not recommended and
can produce unpredictable results.
The on-chip RAM always begins at address 000H in the Register File address space. The
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series devices contain 256 B to 1 KB of on-chip RAM.
Reading from Register File addresses outside the available RAM addresses (and not
within the control register address space) returns an undefined value. Writing to these
Register File addresses produces no effect.
Program Memory
The eZ8 CPU supports 64 KB of Program Memory address space. The Z8 Encore! XP
F082A Series devices contain 1 KB to 8 KB of on-chip Flash memory in the Program
Memory address space, depending on the device. Reading from Program Memory

addresses outside the available Flash memory addresses returns FFH. Writing to these
unimplemented Program Memory addresses produces no effect. Table 5 describes the
Program Memory Maps for the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series products.

Flash Information Area
Table 6 on page 18 describes the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series Flash Information Area.
This 128 B Information Area is accessed by setting bit 7 of the Flash Page Select Register

Reset, Stop Mode Recovery, and Low
Voltage Detection
The Reset Controller within the Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series controls Reset and Stop
Mode Recovery operation and provides indication of low supply voltage conditions. In
typical operation, the following events cause a Reset:
•
•
•
Power-On Reset (POR)
•
External RESET pin assertion (when the alternate RESET function is enabled by
the GPIO register)
•
On-chip debugger initiated Reset (OCDCTL[0] set to 1)
Voltage Brownout (VBO)
Watchdog Timer time-out (when configured by the WDT_RES Flash Option Bit
to initiate a reset)
When the device is in STOP mode, a Stop Mode Recovery is initiated by either of the
following:
•
•
Watchdog Timer time-out
GPIO Port input pin transition on an enabled Stop Mode Recovery source
The low voltage detection circuitry on the device (available on the 8-pin product versions
only) performs the following functions:
•
Generates the VBO reset when the supply voltage drops below a minimum safe
level.
•
Generates an interrupt when the supply voltage drops below a user-defined level
(8-pin devices only).
Reset Types
The Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series provides several different types of Reset operation. Stop
Mode Recovery is considered as a form of Reset. Table 8 lists the types of Reset and their
operating characteristics. The System Reset is longer if the external crystal oscillator is
enabled by the Flash option bits, allowing additional time for oscillator start-up.

Reset 5000 Internal Precision Oscillator Cycles
During a System Reset or Stop Mode Recovery, the Internal Precision Oscillator requires
4 µs to start up. Then the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series device is held in Reset for 66
cycles of the Internal Precision Oscillator. If the crystal oscillator is enabled in the Flash
option bits, this reset period is increased to 5000 IPO cycles. When a reset occurs because
of a low voltage condition or Power-On Reset (POR), this delay is measured from the time
that the supply voltage first exceeds the POR level. If the external pin reset remains
asserted at the end of the reset period, the device remains in reset until the pin is deasserted.
At the beginning of Reset, all GPIO pins are configured as inputs with pull-up resistor disabled, except PD0 (or PA2 on 8-pin devices) which is shared with the reset pin. On reset,
the PD0 is configured as a bidirectional open-drain reset. The pin is internally driven low
during port reset, after which the user code may reconfigure this pin as a general purpose
output.
During Reset, the eZ8 CPU and on-chip peripherals are idle; however, the on-chip crystal
oscillator and Watchdog Timer oscillator continue to run.
Upon Reset, control registers within the Register File that have a defined Reset value are
loaded with their reset values. Other control registers (including the Stack Pointer,
Register Pointer, and Flags) and general-purpose RAM are undefined following Reset.
The eZ8 CPU fetches the Reset vector at Program Memory addresses 0002H and 0003H
and loads that value into the Program Counter. Program execution begins at the Reset
vector address.
As the control registers are re-initialized by a system reset, the system clock after reset is
always the IPO. The software must reconfigure the oscillator control block, such that the
correct system clock source is enabled and selected.

Power-On Reset
Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series devices contain an internal Power-On Reset
circuit. The POR circuit monitors the supply voltage and holds the device in the Reset
state until the supply voltage reaches a safe operating level. After the supply voltage
exceeds the POR voltage threshold (VPOR), the device is held in the Reset state until the
POR Counter has timed out. If the crystal oscillator is enabled by the option bits, this
timeout is longer.
After the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series device exits the Power-On Reset state, the eZ8
CPU fetches the Reset vector. Following Power-On Reset, the POR status bit in the Reset
Status (RSTSTAT) register is set to 1.
Figure 5 displays Power-On Reset operation. See Electrical Characteristics on page 221
for the POR threshold voltage (VPOR).

Figure 5. Power-On Reset Operation
Voltage Brownout Reset
The devices in the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series provide low Voltage Brownout (VBO)
protection. The VBO circuit senses when the supply voltage drops to an unsafe level
(below the VBO threshold voltage) and forces the device into the Reset state. While the
supply voltage remains below the Power-On Reset voltage threshold (VPOR), the VBO
block holds the device in the Reset.
After the supply voltage again exceeds the Power-On Reset voltage threshold, the device
progresses through a full System Reset sequence, as described in the Power-On Reset
section. Following Power-On Reset, the POR status bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT)
register is set to 1. Figure 6 displays Voltage Brownout operation. See Electrical Characteristics on page 221 for the VBO and POR threshold voltages (VVBO and VPOR).
The Voltage Brownout circuit can be either enabled or disabled during STOP mode.
Operation during STOP mode is set by the VBO_AO Flash Option Bit. See Flash Option
Bits for information about configuring VBO_AO.

The POR level is greater than the VBO level by the specified hysteresis value. This
ensures that the device undergoes a Power-On Reset after recovering from a VBO
condition.
Watchdog Timer Reset
If the device is in NORMAL or HALT mode, the Watchdog Timer can initiate a System
Reset at time-out if the WDT_RES Flash Option Bit is programmed to 1. This is the
unprogrammed state of the WDT_RES Flash Option Bit. If the bit is programmed to 0, it
configures the Watchdog Timer to cause an interrupt, not a System Reset, at time-out.
The WDT bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register is set to signify that the reset was
initiated by the Watchdog Timer.
External Reset Input
The RESET pin has a Schmitt-Triggered input and an internal pull-up resistor. Once the
RESET pin is asserted for a minimum of four system clock cycles, the device progresses
through the System Reset sequence. Because of the possible asynchronicity of the system
clock and reset signals, the required reset duration may be as short as three clock periods
PS022825-0908
Reset, Stop Mode Recovery, and Low Voltage Detection
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
28
and as long as four. A reset pulse three clock cycles in duration might trigger a reset; a
pulse four cycles in duration always triggers a reset.
While the RESET input pin is asserted Low, the Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series devices
remain in the Reset state. If the RESET pin is held Low beyond the System Reset timeout, the device exits the Reset state on the system clock rising edge following RESET pin
deassertion. Following a System Reset initiated by the external RESET pin, the EXT status bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register is set to 1.
External Reset Indicator
During System Reset or when enabled by the GPIO logic (see Port A–D Control Registers
on page 46), the RESET pin functions as an open-drain (active Low) reset mode indicator
in addition to the input functionality. This reset output feature allows a
Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series device to reset other components to which it is connected,
even if that reset is caused by internal sources such as POR, VBO or WDT events.
After an internal reset event occurs, the internal circuitry begins driving the RESET pin
Low. The RESET pin is held Low by the internal circuitry until the appropriate delay
listed in Table 8 has elapsed.
On-Chip Debugger Initiated Reset
A Power-On Reset can be initiated using the On-Chip Debugger by setting the RST bit in
the OCD Control register. The On-Chip Debugger block is not reset but the rest of the chip
goes through a normal system reset. The RST bit automatically clears during the system
reset. Following the system reset the POR bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register is set.
Stop Mode Recovery
STOP mode is entered by execution of a STOP instruction by the eZ8 CPU. See LowPower Modes on page 33 for detailed STOP mode information. During Stop Mode Recovery (SMR), the CPU is held in reset for 66 IPO cycles if the crystal oscillator is disabled or
5000 cycles if it is enabled. The SMR delay (see Table 131 on page 229) TSMR, also
includes the time required to start up the IPO.
Stop Mode Recovery does not affect on-chip registers other than the Watchdog Timer
Control register (WDTCTL) and the Oscillator Control register (OSCCTL). After any
Stop Mode Recovery, the IPO is enabled and selected as the system clock. If another
system clock source is required, the Stop Mode Recovery code must reconfigure the oscillator control block such that the correct system clock source is enabled and selected.
The eZ8 CPU fetches the Reset vector at Program Memory addresses 0002H and 0003H
and loads that value into the Program Counter. Program execution begins at the Reset

vector address. Following Stop Mode Recovery, the STOP bit in the Reset Status
(RSTSTAT) Register is set to 1. Table 10 lists the Stop Mode Recovery sources and resulting actions. The text following provides more detailed information about each of the Stop
Mode Recovery sources.

Stop Mode Recovery Using Watchdog Timer Time-Out
If the Watchdog Timer times out during STOP mode, the device undergoes a Stop Mode
Recovery sequence. In the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register, the WDT and STOP bits are
set to 1. If the Watchdog Timer is configured to generate an interrupt upon time-out and
the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series device is configured to respond to interrupts, the eZ8
CPU services the Watchdog Timer interrupt request following the normal Stop Mode
Recovery sequence.
Stop Mode Recovery Using a GPIO Port Pin Transition
Each of the GPIO Port pins may be configured as a Stop Mode Recovery input source. On
any GPIO pin enabled as a Stop Mode Recovery source, a change in the input pin value
(from High to Low or from Low to High) initiates Stop Mode Recovery.
Note:
The SMR pulses shorter than specified does not trigger a recovery (see Table 131 on
page 229). When this happens, the STOP bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register is set
to 1.
Caution: In STOP mode, the GPIO Port Input Data registers (PxIN) are disabled. The Port Input
Data registers record the Port transition only if the signal stays on the Port pin through
the end of the Stop Mode Recovery delay. As a result, short pulses on the Port pin can

initiate Stop Mode Recovery without being written to the Port Input Data register or
without initiating an interrupt (if enabled for that pin).
Stop Mode Recovery Using the External RESET Pin
When the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series device is in STOP mode and the external RESET
pin is driven Low, a system reset occurs. Because of a glitch filter operating on the RESET
pin, the Low pulse must be greater than the minimum width specified, or it is ignored. See
Electrical Characteristics on page 221 for details.
Low Voltage Detection
In addition to the Voltage Brownout (VBO) Reset described above, it is also possible to
generate an interrupt when the supply voltage drops below a user-selected value. For
details about configuring the Low Voltage Detection (LVD) and the threshold levels available, see Trim Bit Address 0003H on page 159. The LVD function is available on the 8pin product versions only.
When the supply voltage drops below the LVD threshold, the LVD bit of the Reset Status
(RSTSTAT) register is set to one. This bit remains one until the low-voltage condition
goes away. Reading or writing this bit does not clear it. The LVD circuit can also generate
an interrupt when so enabled, see Interrupt Vectors and Priority on page 58. The LVD bit
is NOT latched, so enabling the interrupt is the only way to guarantee detection of a
transient low voltage event.
The LVD functionality depends on circuitry shared with the VBO block; therefore,
disabling the VBO also disables the LVD.
Reset Register Definitions
The following sections define the Reset registers.
Reset Status Register
The Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register is a read-only register that indicates the source of
the most recent Reset event, indicates a Stop Mode Recovery event, and indicates a
Watchdog Timer time-out. Reading this register resets the upper four bits to 0.
This register shares its address with the Watchdog Timer control register, which is
write-only (see Table 11 on page 31).

Reset or Stop Mode Recovery Event
POR—Power-On Reset Indicator
If this bit is set to 1, a Power-On Reset event occurs. This bit is reset to 0 if a WDT
time-out or Stop Mode Recovery occurs. This bit is also reset to 0 when the register is
read.
STOP—Stop Mode Recovery Indicator
If this bit is set to 1, a Stop Mode Recovery occurs. If the STOP and WDT bits are both set
to 1, the Stop Mode Recovery occurs because of a WDT time-out. If the STOP bit is 1 and
the WDT bit is 0, the Stop Mode Recovery was not caused by a WDT time-out. This bit is
reset by a Power-On Reset or a WDT time-out that occurred while not in STOP mode.
Reading this register also resets this bit.
WDT—Watchdog Timer Time-Out Indicator
If this bit is set to 1, a WDT time-out occurs. A POR resets this pin. A Stop Mode Recovery from a change in an input pin also resets this bit. Reading this register resets this bit.
This read must occur before clearing the WDT interrupt.
EXT—External Reset Indicator
If this bit is set to 1, a Reset initiated by the external RESET pin occurs. A Power-On
Reset or a Stop Mode Recovery from a change in an input pin resets this bit. Reading this
register resets this bit.
Reserved—Must be 0.
LVD—Low Voltage Detection Indicator
If this bit is set to 1 the current state of the supply voltage is below the low voltage
detection threshold. This value is not latched but is a real-time indicator of the supply voltage level.

Low-Power Modes
The Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series products contain power-saving features. The
highest level of power reduction is provided by the STOP mode, in which nearly all device
functions are powered down. The next lower level of power reduction is provided by the
HALT mode, in which the CPU is powered down.
Further power savings can be implemented by disabling individual peripheral blocks
while in Active mode (defined as being in neither STOP nor HALT mode).
STOP Mode
Executing the eZ8 CPU’s STOP instruction places the device into STOP mode, powering
down all peripherals except the Voltage Brownout detector, the Low-power Operational
Amplifier and the Watchdog Timer. These three blocks may also be disabled for additional
power savings. Specifically, the operating characteristics are:
•
Primary crystal oscillator and internal precision oscillator are stopped; XIN and
XOUT (if previously enabled) are disabled, and PA0/PA1 revert to the states
programmed by the GPIO registers.
•
•
•
•
System clock is stopped.
•
•
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer logic continues to operate.
•
Low-power operational amplifier continues to operate if enabled by the Power
Control register to do so.
•
All other on-chip peripherals are idle.
eZ8 CPU is stopped.
Program counter (PC) stops incrementing.
Watchdog Timer’s internal RC oscillator continues to operate if enabled by the
Oscillator Control register.
If enabled for operation in STOP mode by the associated Flash Option Bit, the
Voltage Brownout protection circuit continues to operate.
To minimize current in STOP mode, all GPIO pins that are configured as digital inputs
must be driven to one of the supply rails (VCC or GND). Additionally, any GPIOs configured as outputs must also be driven to one of the supply rails. The device can be brought
out of STOP mode using Stop Mode Recovery. For more information on Stop Mode
Recovery, see Reset, Stop Mode Recovery, and Low Voltage Detection on page 23.

HALT Mode
Executing the eZ8 CPU’s HALT instruction places the device into HALT mode, which
powers down the CPU but leaves all other peripherals active. In HALT mode, the
operating characteristics are:

•
•
•
•
•
•
Primary oscillator is enabled and continues to operate.

External RESET pin assertion
To minimize current in HALT mode, all GPIO pins that are configured as inputs must be
driven to one of the supply rails (VCC or GND).
Peripheral-Level Power Control
In addition to the STOP and HALT modes, it is possible to disable each peripheral on each
of the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series devices. Disabling a given peripheral minimizes its
power consumption.
Power Control Register Definitions
The following sections define the Power Control registers.
Power Control Register 0
Each bit of the following registers disables a peripheral block, either by gating its system
clock input or by removing power from the block. The default state of the low-power

operational amplifier (LPO) is OFF. To use the LPO, clear the LPO bit, turning it ON.
Clearing this bit might interfere with normal ADC measurements on ANA0 (the LPO output). This bit enables the amplifier even in STOP mode. If the amplifier is not required in
STOP mode, disable it. Failure to perform this results in STOP mode currents greater than
specified.
This register is only reset during a POR sequence. Other system reset events do not affect
it.

General-Purpose Input/Output
The Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series products support a maximum of 25 port pins (Ports A–
D) for general-purpose input/output (GPIO) operations. Each port contains
control and data registers. The GPIO control registers determine data direction,
open-drain, output drive current, programmable pull-ups, Stop Mode Recovery functionality, and alternate pin functions. Each port pin is individually programmable. In addition,
the Port C pins are capable of direct LED drive at programmable drive strengths.

GPIO Alternate Functions
Many of the GPIO port pins can be used for general-purpose I/O and access to on-chip
peripheral functions such as the timers and serial communication devices. The Port A–D
Alternate Function sub-registers configure these pins for either General-Purpose I/O or
alternate function operation. When a pin is configured for alternate function, control of the
port pin direction (input/output) is passed from the Port A–D Data Direction registers to
the alternate function assigned to this pin. Table 14 on page 41 lists the alternate functions
possible with each port pin. For those pins with more one alternate function, the alternate
function is defined through Alternate Function Sets sub-registers AFS1 and AFS2.
The crystal oscillator functionality is not controlled by the GPIO block. When the crystal
oscillator is enabled in the oscillator control block, the GPIO functionality of PA0 and PA1
is overridden. In that case, those pins function as input and output for the crystal oscillator.
PS022825-0908
General-Purpose Input/Output

PA0 and PA6 contain two different timer functions, a timer input and a complementary
timer output. Both of these functions require the same GPIO configuration, the selection
between the two is based on the timer mode. See Timers on page 69 for more details.
Caution: For pin with multiple alternate functions, it is recommended to write to the AFS1 and
AFS2 sub-registers before enabling the alternate function via the AF sub-register. This
prevents spurious transitions through unwanted alternate function modes.
Direct LED Drive
The Port C pins provide a current sinked output capable of driving an LED without
requiring an external resistor. The output sinks current at programmable levels of 3 mA, 7
mA, 13 mA and 20 mA. This mode is enabled through the Alternate Function sub-register
AFS1 and is programmable through the LED control registers. The LED Drive Enable
(LEDEN) register turns on the drivers. The LED Drive Level (LEDLVLH and LEDLVLL)
registers select the sink current.
For correct function, the LED anode must be connected to VDD and the cathode to the
GPIO pin. Using all Port C pins in LED drive mode with maximum current may result in
excessive total current. See Electrical Characteristics on page 221 for the maximum total
current for the applicable package.
Shared Reset Pin
On the 20- and 28-pin devices, the PD0 pin shares function with a bi-directional reset pin.
Unlike all other I/O pins, this pin does not default to GPIO function on power-up. This pin
acts as a bi-directional reset until the software re-configures it. The PD0 pin is output-only
when in GPIO mode.
On the 8-pin product versions, the reset pin is shared with PA2, but the pin is not limited to
output-only when in GPIO mode.
Caution: If PA2 on the 8-pin product is reconfigured as an input, ensure that no external
stimulus drives the pin low during any reset sequence. Since PA2 returns to its RESET
alternate function during system resets, driving it Low holds the chip in a reset state until the pin is released.
Shared Debug Pin
On the 8-pin version of this device only, the Debug pin shares function with the PA0 GPIO
pin. This pin performs as a general purpose input pin on power-up, but the debug logic
monitors this pin during the reset sequence to determine if the unlock sequence occurs. If
the unlock sequence is present, the debug function is unlocked and the pin no longer func-

tions as a GPIO pin. If it is not present, the debug feature is disabled until/unless another
reset event occurs. For more details, see On-Chip Debugger on page 173.
Crystal Oscillator Override
For systems using a crystal oscillator, PA0 and PA1 are used to connect the crystal. When
the crystal oscillator is enabled (see Oscillator Control Register Definitions on page 190),
the GPIO settings are overridden and PA0 and PA1 are disabled.
5 V Tolerance
All six I/O pins on the 8-pin devices are 5 V-tolerant, unless the programmable pull-ups
are enabled. If the pull-ups are enabled and inputs higher than VDD are applied to these
parts, excessive current flows through those pull-up devices and can damage the chip.
Note:
In the 20- and 28-pin versions of this device, any pin which shares functionality with an
ADC, crystal or comparator port is not 5 V-tolerant, including PA[1:0], PB[5:0] and
PC[2:0]. All other signal pins are 5 V-tolerant, and can safely handle inputs higher than
VDD except when the programmable pull-ups are enabled.
External Clock Setup
For systems using an external TTL drive, PB3 is the clock source for 20- and 28-pin
devices. In this case, configure PB3 for alternate function CLKIN. Write the Oscillator
Control (OSCCTL) register (see Oscillator Control Register Definitions on page 190) such
that the external oscillator is selected as the system clock. For 8-pin devices use PA1
instead of PB3.

GPIO Interrupts
Many of the GPIO port pins can be used as interrupt sources. Some port pins can be configured to generate an interrupt request on either the rising edge or falling edge of the pin
input signal. Other port pin interrupt sources generate an interrupt when any edge occurs
(both rising and falling). See Interrupt Controller on page 55 for more information about
interrupts using the GPIO pins.
GPIO Control Register Definitions
Four registers for each Port provide access to GPIO control, input data, and output data.
Table 16 lists these Port registers. Use the Port A–D Address and Control registers
together to provide access to sub-registers for Port configuration and control.

Interrupt Controller
The interrupt controller on the Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series products prioritizes the interrupt requests from the on-chip peripherals and the GPIO port pins. The features of interrupt controller include:
•
20 possible interrupt sources with 18 unique interrupt vectors:
– Twelve GPIO port pin interrupt sources (two interrupt vectors are shared).
– Eight on-chip peripheral interrupt sources (two interrupt vectors are shared).
•
Flexible GPIO interrupts:
– Eight selectable rising and falling edge GPIO interrupts.
– Four dual-edge interrupts.
•
•
•
Three levels of individually programmable interrupt priority.
Watchdog Timer and LVD can be configured to generate an interrupt.
Supports vectored as well as polled interrupts
Interrupt requests (IRQs) allow peripheral devices to suspend CPU operation in an orderly
manner and force the CPU to start an interrupt service routine (ISR). Usually this interrupt
service routine is involved with the exchange of data, status information, or control information between the CPU and the interrupting peripheral. When the service routine is
completed, the CPU returns to the operation from which it was interrupted.
The eZ8 CPU supports both vectored and polled interrupt handling. For polled interrupts,
the interrupt controller has no effect on operation. For more information on interrupt servicing by the eZ8 CPU, refer to eZ8 CPU Core User Manual (UM0128) available for
download at www.zilog.com.
Interrupt Vector Listing
Table 32 on page 56 lists all of the interrupts available in order of priority. The interrupt
vector is stored with the most-significant byte (MSB) at the even Program Memory
address and the least-significant byte (LSB) at the following odd Program Memory
address.
Note:
PS022825-0908
Some port interrupts are not available on the 8- and 20-pin packages. The ADC interrupt
is unavailable on devices not containing an ADC.

Interrupt Vectors and Priority
The interrupt controller supports three levels of interrupt priority. Level 3 is the highest
priority, Level 2 is the second highest priority, and Level 1 is the lowest priority. If all of
the interrupts are enabled with identical interrupt priority (all as Level 2 interrupts, for
example), the interrupt priority is assigned from highest to lowest as specified in Table 32
on page 56. Level 3 interrupts are always assigned higher priority than Level 2 interrupts
which, in turn, always are assigned higher priority than Level 1 interrupts. Within each
interrupt priority level (Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3), priority is assigned as specified in
Table 32, above. Reset, Watchdog Timer interrupt (if enabled), Primary Oscillator Fail
Trap, Watchdog Oscillator Fail Trap, and Illegal Instruction Trap always have highest
(level 3) priority.
Interrupt Assertion
Interrupt sources assert their interrupt requests for only a single system clock period (single pulse). When the interrupt request is acknowledged by the eZ8 CPU, the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Request register is cleared until the next interrupt occurs. Writing a
0 to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Request register likewise clears the interrupt
request.

Caution:
The following coding style that clears bits in the Interrupt Request registers is not
recommended. All incoming interrupts received between execution of the first LDX command and the final LDX command are lost.
Poor coding style that can result in lost interrupt requests:
LDX r0, IRQ0
AND r0, MASK
LDX IRQ0, r0
Caution:
To avoid missing interrupts, use the following coding style to clear bits in the
Interrupt Request 0 register:
Good coding style that avoids lost interrupt requests:
ANDX IRQ0, MASK
Software Interrupt Assertion
Program code can generate interrupts directly. Writing a 1 to the correct bit in the Interrupt
Request register triggers an interrupt (assuming that interrupt is enabled). When the interrupt request is acknowledged by the eZ8 CPU, the bit in the Interrupt Request register is
automatically cleared to 0.
Caution: The following coding style used to generate software interrupts by setting bits in the
Interrupt Request registers is not recommended. All incoming interrupts received between execution of the first LDX command and the final LDX command are lost.
Poor coding style that can result in lost interrupt requests:
LDX r0, IRQ0
OR r0, MASK
LDX IRQ0, r0
Caution: To avoid missing interrupts, use the following coding style to set bits in the Interrupt
Request registers:
Good coding style that avoids lost interrupt requests:
ORX IRQ0, MASK
Watchdog Timer Interrupt Assertion
The Watchdog Timer interrupt behavior is different from interrupts generated by other
sources. The Watchdog Timer continues to assert an interrupt as long as the timeout
condition continues. As it operates on a different (and usually slower) clock domain than
the rest of the device, the Watchdog Timer continues to assert this interrupt for many
system clocks until the counter rolls over.

Interrupt Controller
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series

Caution:
To avoid re-triggerings of the Watchdog Timer interrupt after exiting the associated
interrupt service routine, it is recommended that the service routine continues to read
from the RSTSTAT register until the WDT bit is cleared as given in the following coding
sample:
CLEARWDT:
LDX r0, RSTSTAT ; read reset status register to clear wdt bit
BTJNZ 5, r0, CLEARWDT
; loop until bit is cleared
Interrupt Control Register Definitions
For all interrupts other than the Watchdog Timer interrupt, the Primary Oscillator Fail
Trap, and the Watchdog Oscillator Fail Trap, the interrupt control registers enable
individual interrupts, set interrupt priorities, and indicate interrupt requests.
Interrupt Request 0 Register
The Interrupt Request 0 (IRQ0) register (Table 33) stores the interrupt requests for both
vectored and polled interrupts. When a request is presented to the interrupt controller, the
corresponding bit in the IRQ0 register becomes 1. If interrupts are globally enabled (vectored interrupts), the interrupt controller passes an interrupt request to the eZ8 CPU. If
interrupts are globally disabled (polled interrupts), the eZ8 CPU can read the Interrupt
Request 0 register to determine if any interrupt requests are pending.

Shared Interrupt Select Register
The Shared Interrupt Select (IRQSS) register (Table 46) determines the source of the
PADxS interrupts. The Shared Interrupt Select register selects between Port A and
alternate sources for the individual interrupts.
Because these shared interrupts are edge-triggered, it is possible to generate an interrupt
just by switching from one shared source to another. For this reason, an interrupt must be
disabled before switching between sources.

Operation
The timers are 16-bit up-counters. Minimum time-out delay is set by loading the value
0001H into the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers and setting the prescale value
to 1. Maximum time-out delay is set by loading the value 0000H into the Timer Reload
High and Low Byte registers and setting the prescale value to 128. If the Timer reaches
FFFFH, the timer rolls over to 0000H and continues counting.
Timer Operating Modes
The timers can be configured to operate in the following modes:
ONE-SHOT Mode
In ONE-SHOT mode, the timer counts up to the 16-bit Reload value stored in the Timer
Reload High and Low byte registers. The timer input is the system clock. Upon reaching
the Reload value, the timer generates an interrupt and the count value in the Timer High
and Low Byte registers is reset to 0001H. The timer is automatically disabled and stops
counting.

Also, if the Timer Output alternate function is enabled, the Timer Output pin changes state
for one system clock cycle (from Low to High or from High to Low) upon timer Reload. If
it is appropriate to have the Timer Output make a state change at a One-Shot time-out
(rather than a single cycle pulse), first set the TPOL bit in the Timer Control Register to
the start value before enabling ONE-SHOT mode. After starting the timer, set TPOL to the
opposite bit value.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for ONE-SHOT mode and initiating the
count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer
– Configure the timer for ONE-SHOT mode.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the initial output level (High or Low) if using the Timer Output alternate
function.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value.
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. If appropriate, enable the timer interrupt and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.
5. If using the Timer Output function, configure the associated GPIO port pin for the
Timer Output alternate function.
6. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
In ONE-SHOT mode, the system clock always provides the timer input. The timer period
is given by the following equation:
Reload Value – Start Value × Prescale
ONE-SHOT Mode Time-Out Period ( s ) = -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency ( Hz )
CONTINUOUS Mode
In CONTINUOUS mode, the timer counts up to the 16-bit Reload value stored in the
Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers. The timer input is the system clock. Upon
reaching the Reload value, the timer generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer
High and Low Byte registers is reset to 0001H and counting resumes. Also, if the Timer
Output alternate function is enabled, the Timer Output pin changes state (from Low to
High or from High to Low) at timer Reload.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for CONTINUOUS mode and initiating the
count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer
– Configure the timer for CONTINUOUS mode.

Set the prescale value.
If using the Timer Output alternate function, set the initial output level (High or
Low).
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value (usually
0001H). This action only affects the first pass in CONTINUOUS mode. After the first
timer Reload in CONTINUOUS mode, counting always begins at the reset value of
0001H.
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. Enable the timer interrupt (if appropriate) and set the timer interrupt priority by
writing to the relevant interrupt registers.
5. Configure the associated GPIO port pin (if using the Timer Output function) for the
Timer Output alternate function.
6. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
In CONTINUOUS mode, the system clock always provides the timer input. The timer
period is given by the following equation:
Reload Value × Prescale
CONTINUOUS Mode Time-Out Period (s) = -----------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
If an initial starting value other than 0001H is loaded into the Timer High and Low Byte
registers, use the ONE-SHOT mode equation to determine the first time-out period.
COUNTER Mode
In COUNTER mode, the timer counts input transitions from a GPIO port pin. The timer
input is taken from the GPIO Port pin Timer Input alternate function. The TPOL bit in the
Timer Control Register selects whether the count occurs on the rising edge or the falling
edge of the Timer Input signal. In COUNTER mode, the prescaler is disabled.
Caution: The input frequency of the Timer Input signal must not exceed one-fourth the system
clock frequency. Further, the high or low state of the input signal pulse must be no less
than twice the system clock period. A shorter pulse may not be captured.
Upon reaching the Reload value stored in the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers,
the timer generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers
is reset to 0001H and counting resumes. Also, if the Timer Output alternate function is
enabled, the Timer Output pin changes state (from Low to High or from High to Low) at
timer Reload.

Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for COUNTER mode and initiating the
count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for COUNTER mode.
– Select either the rising edge or falling edge of the Timer Input signal for the count.
This selection also sets the initial logic level (High or Low) for the Timer Output
alternate function. However, the Timer Output function is not required to be
enabled.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value. This
only affects the first pass in COUNTER mode. After the first timer Reload in
COUNTER mode, counting always begins at the reset value of 0001H. In COUNTER
mode the Timer High and Low Byte registers must be written with the value 0001H.
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. If appropriate, enable the timer interrupt and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.
5. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Input alternate function.
6. If using the Timer Output function, configure the associated GPIO port pin for the
Timer Output alternate function.
7. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer.
In COUNTER mode, the number of Timer Input transitions since the timer start is given
by the following equation:
COUNTER Mode Timer Input Transitions = Current Count Value - Start Value
COMPARATOR COUNTER Mode
In COMPARATOR COUNTER mode, the timer counts input transitions from the analog
comparator output. The TPOL bit in the Timer Control Register selects whether the count
occurs on the rising edge or the falling edge of the comparator output signal. In COMPARATOR COUNTER mode, the prescaler is disabled.
Caution: The frequency of the comparator output signal must not exceed one-fourth the system
clock frequency. Further, the high or low state of the comparator output signal pulse
must be no less than twice the system clock period. A shorter pulse may not be captured.
After reaching the Reload value stored in the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers,
the timer generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers
is reset to 0001H and counting resumes. Also, if the Timer Output alternate function is
enabled, the Timer Output pin changes state (from Low to High or from High to Low) at
timer Reload.

Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for COMPARATOR COUNTER mode and
initiating the count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for COMPARATOR COUNTER mode.
– Select either the rising edge or falling edge of the comparator output signal for the
count. This also sets the initial logic level (High or Low) for the Timer Output
alternate function. However, the Timer Output function is not required to be
enabled.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value. This
action only affects the first pass in COMPARATOR COUNTER mode. After the first
timer Reload in COMPARATOR COUNTER mode, counting always begins at the
reset value of 0001H. Generally, in COMPARATOR COUNTER mode the Timer
High and Low Byte registers must be written with the value 0001H.
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. If appropriate, enable the timer interrupt and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.
5. If using the Timer Output function, configure the associated GPIO port pin for the
Timer Output alternate function.
6. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer.
In COMPARATOR COUNTER mode, the number of comparator output transitions since
the timer start is given by the following equation:
Comparator Output Transitions = Current Count Value – Start Value
PWM SINGLE OUTPUT Mode
In PWM SINGLE OUTPUT mode, the timer outputs a Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM)
output signal through a GPIO Port pin. The timer input is the system clock. The timer first
counts up to the 16-bit PWM match value stored in the Timer PWM High and Low Byte
registers. When the timer count value matches the PWM value, the Timer Output toggles.
The timer continues counting until it reaches the Reload value stored in the Timer Reload
High and Low Byte registers. Upon reaching the Reload value, the timer generates an
interrupt, the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers is reset to 0001H and
counting resumes.
If the TPOL bit in the Timer Control register is set to 1, the Timer Output signal begins as
a High (1) and transitions to a Low (0) when the timer value matches the PWM value. The
Timer Output signal returns to a High (1) after the timer reaches the Reload value and is
reset to 0001H.

If the TPOL bit in the Timer Control register is set to 0, the Timer Output signal begins as
a Low (0) and transitions to a High (1) when the timer value matches the PWM value. The
Timer Output signal returns to a Low (0) after the timer reaches the Reload value and is
reset to 0001H.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for PWM SINGLE OUTPUT mode and
initiating the PWM operation:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for PWM SINGLE OUTPUT mode.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the initial logic level (High or Low) and PWM High/Low transition for the
Timer Output alternate function.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value
(typically 0001H). This only affects the first pass in PWM mode. After the first timer
reset in PWM mode, counting always begins at the reset value of 0001H.
3. Write to the PWM High and Low Byte registers to set the PWM value.
4. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value (PWM
period). The Reload value must be greater than the PWM value.
5. If appropriate, enable the timer interrupt and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.
6. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Output alternate function.
7. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
The PWM period is represented by the following equation:
Reload Value × Prescale
PWM Period (s) = -----------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
If an initial starting value other than 0001H is loaded into the Timer High and Low Byte
registers, use the ONE-SHOT mode equation to determine the first PWM time-out period.
If TPOL is set to 0, the ratio of the PWM output High time to the total period is represented by:

PWM DUAL OUTPUT Mode
In PWM DUAL OUTPUT mode, the timer outputs a Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM)
output signal pair (basic PWM signal and its complement) through two GPIO Port pins.
The timer input is the system clock. The timer first counts up to the 16-bit PWM match
value stored in the Timer PWM High and Low Byte registers. When the timer count value
matches the PWM value, the Timer Output toggles. The timer continues counting until it
reaches the Reload value stored in the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers. Upon
reaching the Reload value, the timer generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer
High and Low Byte registers is reset to 0001H and counting resumes.
If the TPOL bit in the Timer Control register is set to 1, the Timer Output signal begins as
a High (1) and transitions to a Low (0) when the timer value matches the PWM value. The
Timer Output signal returns to a High (1) after the timer reaches the Reload value and is
reset to 0001H.
If the TPOL bit in the Timer Control register is set to 0, the Timer Output signal begins as
a Low (0) and transitions to a High (1) when the timer value matches the PWM value. The
Timer Output signal returns to a Low (0) after the timer reaches the Reload value and is
reset to 0001H.
The timer also generates a second PWM output signal Timer Output Complement. The
Timer Output Complement is the complement of the Timer Output PWM signal. A
programmable deadband delay can be configured to time delay (0 to 128 system clock
cycles) PWM output transitions on these two pins from a low to a high (inactive to active).
This ensures a time gap between the deassertion of one PWM output to the assertion of its
complement.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for PWM DUAL OUTPUT mode and initiating the PWM operation:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for PWM DUAL OUTPUT mode by writing the TMODE bits
in the TxCTL1 register and the TMODEHI bit in TxCTL0 register.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the initial logic level (High or Low) and PWM High/Low transition for the
Timer Output alternate function.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value
(typically 0001H). This only affects the first pass in PWM mode. After the first timer
reset in PWM mode, counting always begins at the reset value of 0001H.
3. Write to the PWM High and Low Byte registers to set the PWM value.
4. Write to the PWM Control register to set the PWM dead band delay value. The
deadband delay must be less than the duration of the positive phase of the PWM signal
(as defined by the PWM high and low byte registers). It must also be less than the
PS022825-0908
Timers
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
77
duration of the negative phase of the PWM signal (as defined by the difference
between the PWM registers and the Timer Reload registers).
5. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value (PWM
period). The Reload value must be greater than the PWM value.
6. If appropriate, enable the timer interrupt and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.
7. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Output and Timer Output
Complement alternate functions. The Timer Output Complement function is shared
with the Timer Input function for both timers. Setting the timer mode to Dual PWM
automatically switches the function from Timer In to Timer Out Complement.
8. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
The PWM period is represented by the following equation:
Reload Value xPrescale PWM Period (s) = -----------------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
If an initial starting value other than 0001H is loaded into the Timer High and Low Byte
registers, the ONE-SHOT mode equation determines the first PWM time-out period.
If TPOL is set to 0, the ratio of the PWM output High time to the total period is represented by:
Reload Value – PWM Value
PWM Output High Time Ratio (%) = ------------------------------------------------------------------- × 100
Reload Value
If TPOL is set to 1, the ratio of the PWM output High time to the total period is represented by:
PWM Value
PWM Output High Time Ratio (%) = -------------------------------- × 100
Reload Value
CAPTURE Mode
In CAPTURE mode, the current timer count value is recorded when the appropriate external Timer Input transition occurs. The Capture count value is written to the Timer PWM
High and Low Byte Registers. The timer input is the system clock. The TPOL bit in the
Timer Control register determines if the Capture occurs on a rising edge or a falling edge
of the Timer Input signal. When the Capture event occurs, an interrupt is generated and the
timer continues counting. The INPCAP bit in TxCTL0 register is set to indicate the timer
interrupt is because of an input capture event.
The timer continues counting up to the 16-bit Reload value stored in the Timer Reload
High and Low Byte registers. Upon reaching the Reload value, the timer generates an
interrupt and continues counting. The INPCAP bit in TxCTL0 register clears indicating
the timer interrupt is not because of an input capture event.

Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for CAPTURE mode and initiating the
count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for CAPTURE mode.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the Capture edge (rising or falling) for the Timer Input.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value
(typically 0001H).
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. Clear the Timer PWM High and Low Byte registers to 0000H. Clearing these
registers allows the software to determine if interrupts were generated by either a
capture event or a reload. If the PWM High and Low Byte registers still contain
0000H after the interrupt, the interrupt was generated by a Reload.
5. Enable the timer interrupt, if appropriate, and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers. By default, the timer interrupt is generated for both
input capture and reload events. If appropriate, configure the timer interrupt to be
generated only at the input capture event or the reload event by setting TICONFIG
field of the TxCTL0 register.
6. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Input alternate function.
7. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
In CAPTURE mode, the elapsed time from timer start to Capture event can be calculated
using the following equation:
( Capture Value – Start Value ) × Prescale
Capture Elapsed Time (s) = --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
CAPTURE RESTART Mode
In CAPTURE RESTART mode, the current timer count value is recorded when the acceptable external Timer Input transition occurs. The Capture count value is written to the
Timer PWM High and Low Byte Registers. The timer input is the system clock. The
TPOL bit in the Timer Control register determines if the Capture occurs on a rising edge or
a falling edge of the Timer Input signal. When the Capture event occurs, an interrupt is
generated and the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers is reset to 0001H
and counting resumes. The INPCAP bit in TxCTL0 register is set to indicate the timer
interrupt is because of an input capture event.
If no Capture event occurs, the timer counts up to the 16-bit Compare value stored in the
Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers. Upon reaching the Reload value, the timer
generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers is reset to

0001H and counting resumes. The INPCAP bit in TxCTL0 register is cleared to indicate
the timer interrupt is not caused by an input capture event.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for CAPTURE RESTART mode and initiating the count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for CAPTURE RESTART mode by writing the TMODE bits
in the TxCTL1 register and the TMODEHI bit in TxCTL0 register.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the Capture edge (rising or falling) for the Timer Input.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value
(typically 0001H).
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. Clear the Timer PWM High and Low Byte registers to 0000H. This allows the
software to determine if interrupts were generated by either a capture event or a
reload. If the PWM High and Low Byte registers still contain 0000H after the
interrupt, the interrupt was generated by a Reload.
5. Enable the timer interrupt, if appropriate, and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers. By default, the timer interrupt is generated for both
input capture and reload events. If appropriate, configure the timer interrupt to be
generated only at the input capture event or the reload event by setting TICONFIG
field of the TxCTL0 register.
6. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Input alternate function.
7. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
In CAPTURE mode, the elapsed time from timer start to Capture event can be calculated
using the following equation:
( Capture Value – Start Value ) × Prescale
Capture Elapsed Time (s) = --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
COMPARE Mode
In COMPARE mode, the timer counts up to the 16-bit maximum Compare value stored in
the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers. The timer input is the system clock. Upon
reaching the Compare value, the timer generates an interrupt and counting continues (the
timer value is not reset to 0001H). Also, if the Timer Output alternate function is enabled,
the Timer Output pin changes state (from Low to High or from High to Low) upon
Compare.
If the Timer reaches FFFFH, the timer rolls over to 0000H and continue counting.

– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for COMPARE mode.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the initial logic level (High or Low) for the Timer Output alternate function, if
appropriate.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value.
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Compare value.
4. Enable the timer interrupt, if appropriate, and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.
5. If using the Timer Output function, configure the associated GPIO port pin for the
Timer Output alternate function.
6. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer and initiate counting.
In COMPARE mode, the system clock always provides the timer input. The Compare time
can be calculated by the following equation:
( Compare Value – Start Value ) × Prescale
COMPARE Mode Time (s) = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
GATED Mode
In GATED mode, the timer counts only when the Timer Input signal is in its active state
(asserted), as determined by the TPOL bit in the Timer Control register. When the Timer
Input signal is asserted, counting begins. A timer interrupt is generated when the Timer
Input signal is deasserted or a timer reload occurs. To determine if a Timer Input signal
deassertion generated the interrupt, read the associated GPIO input value and compare to
the value stored in the TPOL bit.
The timer counts up to the 16-bit Reload value stored in the Timer Reload High and Low
Byte registers. The timer input is the system clock. When reaching the Reload value, the
timer generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers is
reset to 0001H and counting resumes (assuming the Timer Input signal remains asserted).
Also, if the Timer Output alternate function is enabled, the Timer Output pin changes state
(from Low to High or from High to Low) at timer reset.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for GATED mode and initiating the count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for GATED mode.
– Set the prescale value.

2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value. Writing
these registers only affects the first pass in GATED mode. After the first timer reset in
GATED mode, counting always begins at the reset value of 0001H.
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Reload value.
4. Enable the timer interrupt, if appropriate, and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers. By default, the timer interrupt is generated for both
input deassertion and reload events. If appropriate, configure the timer interrupt to be
generated only at the input deassertion event or the reload event by setting TICONFIG
field of the TxCTL0 register.
5. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Input alternate function.
6. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer.
7. Assert the Timer Input signal to initiate the counting.
CAPTURE/COMPARE Mode
In CAPTURE/COMPARE mode, the timer begins counting on the first external Timer
Input transition. The acceptable transition (rising edge or falling edge) is set by the TPOL
bit in the Timer Control Register. The timer input is the system clock.
Every subsequent acceptable transition (after the first) of the Timer Input signal captures
the current count value. The Capture value is written to the Timer PWM High and Low
Byte Registers. When the Capture event occurs, an interrupt is generated, the count value
in the Timer High and Low Byte registers is reset to 0001H, and counting resumes. The
INPCAP bit in TxCTL0 register is set to indicate the timer interrupt is caused by an input
capture event.
If no Capture event occurs, the timer counts up to the 16-bit Compare value stored in the
Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers. Upon reaching the Compare value, the timer
generates an interrupt, the count value in the Timer High and Low Byte registers is reset to
0001H and counting resumes. The INPCAP bit in TxCTL0 register is cleared to indicate
the timer interrupt is not because of an input capture event.
Follow the steps below for configuring a timer for CAPTURE/COMPARE mode and initiating the count:
1. Write to the Timer Control register to:
– Disable the timer.
– Configure the timer for CAPTURE/COMPARE mode.
– Set the prescale value.
– Set the Capture edge (rising or falling) for the Timer Input.
2. Write to the Timer High and Low Byte registers to set the starting count value
(typically 0001H).
3. Write to the Timer Reload High and Low Byte registers to set the Compare value.

4. Enable the timer interrupt, if appropriate, and set the timer interrupt priority by writing
to the relevant interrupt registers.By default, the timer interrupt are generated for both
input capture and reload events. If appropriate, configure the timer interrupt to be
generated only at the input capture event or the reload event by setting TICONFIG
field of the TxCTL0 register.
5. Configure the associated GPIO port pin for the Timer Input alternate function.
6. Write to the Timer Control register to enable the timer.
7. Counting begins on the first appropriate transition of the Timer Input signal. No
interrupt is generated by this first edge.
In CAPTURE/COMPARE mode, the elapsed time from timer start to Capture event can be
calculated using the following equation:
( Capture Value – Start Value ) × Prescale
Capture Elapsed Time (s) = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------System Clock Frequency (Hz)
Reading the Timer Count Values
The current count value in the timers can be read while counting (enabled). This capability
has no effect on timer operation. When the timer is enabled and the Timer High Byte
register is read, the contents of the Timer Low Byte register are placed in a holding register. A subsequent read from the Timer Low Byte register returns the value in the holding
register. This operation allows accurate reads of the full 16-bit timer count value while
enabled. When the timers are not enabled, a read from the Timer Low Byte register returns
the actual value in the counter.
Timer Pin Signal Operation
Timer Output is a GPIO Port pin alternate function. The Timer Output is toggled every
time the counter is reloaded.
The Timer Input can be used as a selectable counting source. It shares the same pin as the
complementary timer output. When selected by the GPIO Alternate Function Registers,
this pin functions as a timer input in all modes except for the DUAL PWM OUTPUT
mode. For this mode, there is no timer input available.

Timer 0–1 High and Low Byte Registers
The Timer 0–1 High and Low Byte (TxH and TxL) registers (Table 50 and Table 51)
contain the current 16-bit timer count value. When the timer is enabled, a read from TxH
causes the value in TxL to be stored in a temporary holding register. A read from TxL
always returns this temporary register when the timers are enabled. When the timer is
disabled, reads from TxL read the register directly.
Writing to the Timer High and Low Byte registers while the timer is enabled is not recommended. There are no temporary holding registers available for write operations, so simultaneous 16-bit writes are not possible. If either the Timer High or Low Byte registers are
written during counting, the 8-bit written value is placed in the counter (High or Low
Byte) at the next clock edge. The counter continues counting from the new value.

Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer (WDT) protects against corrupt or unreliable software, power faults,
and other system-level problems which may place the Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
devices into unsuitable operating states. The features of Watchdog Timer include:
•
•
•
On-chip RC oscillator.
A selectable time-out response: reset or interrupt.
24-bit programmable time-out value.
Operation
The Watchdog Timer is a one-shot timer that resets or interrupts the Z8 Encore! XP F082A
Series devices when the WDT reaches its terminal count. The Watchdog Timer uses a dedicated on-chip RC oscillator as its clock source. The Watchdog Timer operates in only two
modes: ON and OFF. Once enabled, it always counts and must be refreshed to prevent a
time-out. Perform an enable by executing the WDT instruction or by setting the WDT_AO
Flash Option Bit. The WDT_AO bit forces the Watchdog Timer to operate immediately
upon reset, even if a WDT instruction has not been executed.
The Watchdog Timer is a 24-bit reloadable downcounter that uses three 8-bit registers in
the eZ8 CPU register space to set the reload value. The nominal WDT time-out period is
described by the following equation:
WDT Time-out Period (ms)
WDT Reload Value
= -----------------------------------------10
where the WDT reload value is the decimal value of the 24-bit value given by
{WDTU[7:0], WDTH[7:0], WDTL[7:0]} and the typical Watchdog Timer RC oscillator
frequency is 10 kHz. The Watchdog Timer cannot be refreshed after it reaches 000002H.
The WDT Reload Value must not be set to values below 000004H. Table 56 provides
information about approximate time-out delays for the minimum and maximum WDT
reload values.

Watchdog Timer Refresh
When first enabled, the Watchdog Timer is loaded with the value in the Watchdog Timer
Reload registers. The Watchdog Timer counts down to 000000H unless a WDT
instruction is executed by the eZ8 CPU. Execution of the WDT instruction causes the
downcounter to be reloaded with the WDT Reload value stored in the Watchdog Timer
Reload registers. Counting resumes following the reload operation.
When the Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series devices are operating in DEBUG mode (using
the on-chip debugger), the Watchdog Timer is continuously refreshed to prevent any
Watchdog Timer time-outs.
Watchdog Timer Time-Out Response
The Watchdog Timer times out when the counter reaches 000000H. A time-out of the
Watchdog Timer generates either an interrupt or a system reset. The WDT_RES Flash
Option Bit determines the time-out response of the Watchdog Timer. For information on
programming the WDT_RES Flash Option Bit, see Flash Option Bits on page 153.
WDT Interrupt in Normal Operation
If configured to generate an interrupt when a time-out occurs, the Watchdog Timer issues
an interrupt request to the interrupt controller and sets the WDT status bit in the Reset
Status (RSTSTAT) register (see Reset Status Register on page 30). If interrupts are
enabled, the eZ8 CPU responds to the interrupt request by fetching the Watchdog Timer
interrupt vector and executing code from the vector address. After time-out and interrupt
generation, the Watchdog Timer counter rolls over to its maximum value of FFFFFH and
continues counting. The Watchdog Timer counter is not automatically returned to its
Reload Value.
The Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register must be read before clearing the WDT interrupt.
This read clears the WDT timeout Flag and prevents further WDT interrupts from
immediately occurring.
WDT Interrupt in STOP Mode
If configured to generate an interrupt when a time-out occurs and the Z8 Encore! XP
F082A Series devices are in STOP mode, the Watchdog Timer automatically initiates a
Stop Mode Recovery and generates an interrupt request. Both the WDT status bit and the
STOP bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register are set to 1 following a WDT time-out in
STOP mode. For more information on Stop Mode Recovery, see Reset, Stop Mode Recovery, and Low Voltage Detection on page 23.
If interrupts are enabled, following completion of the Stop Mode Recovery the eZ8 CPU
responds to the interrupt request by fetching the Watchdog Timer interrupt vector and executing code from the vector address.

WDT Reset in Normal Operation
If configured to generate a Reset when a time-out occurs, the Watchdog Timer forces the
device into the System Reset state. The WDT status bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT)
register is set to 1. For more information on system reset, see Reset, Stop Mode Recovery,
and Low Voltage Detection on page 23.
WDT Reset in STOP Mode
If configured to generate a Reset when a time-out occurs and the device is in STOP mode,
the Watchdog Timer initiates a Stop Mode Recovery. Both the WDT status bit and the
STOP bit in the Reset Status (RSTSTAT) register are set to 1 following WDT time-out in
STOP mode.
Watchdog Timer Reload Unlock Sequence
Writing the unlock sequence to the Watchdog Timer (WDTCTL) Control register address
unlocks the three Watchdog Timer Reload Byte registers (WDTU, WDTH, and WDTL) to
allow changes to the time-out period. These write operations to the WDTCTL register
address produce no effect on the bits in the WDTCTL register. The locking mechanism
prevents spurious writes to the Reload registers. Follow the steps below to unlock the
Watchdog Timer Reload Byte registers (WDTU, WDTH, and WDTL) for write access.
1. Write 55H to the Watchdog Timer Control register (WDTCTL).
2. Write AAH to the Watchdog Timer Control register (WDTCTL).
3. Write the Watchdog Timer Reload Upper Byte register (WDTU) with the desired
time-out value.
4. Write the Watchdog Timer Reload High Byte register (WDTH) with the desired
time-out value.
5. Write the Watchdog Timer Reload Low Byte register (WDTL) with the desired
time-out value.
All three Watchdog Timer Reload registers must be written in the order just listed. There
must be no other register writes between each of these operations. If a register write
occurs, the lock state machine resets and no further writes can occur unless the sequence is
restarted. The value in the Watchdog Timer Reload registers is loaded into the counter
when the Watchdog Timer is first enabled and every time a WDT instruction is executed.
Watchdog Timer Calibration
Due to its extremely low operating current, the Watchdog Timer oscillator is somewhat
inaccurate. This variation can be corrected using the calibration data stored in the Flash
Information Page (see Table 97 and Table 98 on page 165). Loading these values into the
PS022825-0908
Watchdog Timer
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
94
Watchdog Timer Reload Registers results in a one-second timeout at room temperature
and 3.3 V supply voltage.
Timeouts other than one second may be obtained by scaling the calibration values up or
down as required.
Note:
The Watchdog Timer accuracy still degrades as temperature and supply voltage vary. See
Table 133 on page 230 for details.
Watchdog Timer Control Register Definitions
Watchdog Timer Control Register
The Watchdog Timer Control (WDTCTL) register is a write-only control register. Writing
the 55H, AAH unlock sequence to the WDTCTL register address unlocks the three Watchdog Timer Reload Byte registers (WDTU, WDTH, and WDTL) to allow changes to the
time-out period. These write operations to the WDTCTL register address produce no
effect on the bits in the WDTCTL register. The locking mechanism prevents spurious
writes to the Reload registers.
This register address is shared with the read-only Reset Status register.

The Watchdog Timer Reload Upper, High and Low Byte (WDTU, WDTH, WDTL) registers (Table 58 through Table 60) form the 24-bit reload value that is loaded into the Watchdog Timer when a WDT instruction executes. The 24-bit reload value is {WDTU[7:0],
WDTH[7:0], WDTL[7:0]}. Writing to these registers sets the appropriate Reload Value.

The UART always transmits and receives data in an 8-bit data format, least-significant bit
first. An even or odd parity bit can be added to the data stream. Each character begins with
an active Low START bit and ends with either 1 or 2 active High STOP bits. Figure 11 and
Figure 12 display the asynchronous data format employed by the UART without parity
and with parity, respectively.

6. Check the TDRE bit in the UART Status 0 register to determine if the Transmit Data
register is empty (indicated by a 1). If empty, continue to Step 7. If the Transmit Data
register is full (indicated by a 0), continue to monitor the TDRE bit until the Transmit
Data register becomes available to receive new data.
7. Write the UART Control 1 register to select the outgoing address bit.
8. Set the Multiprocessor Bit Transmitter (MPBT) if sending an address byte, clear it if
sending a data byte.
9. Write the data byte to the UART Transmit Data register. The transmitter automatically
transfers the data to the Transmit Shift register and transmits the data.
10. Make any changes to the Multiprocessor Bit Transmitter (MPBT) value, if appropriate
and MULTIPROCESSOR mode is enabled.
11. To transmit additional bytes, return to Step 5.
Transmitting Data using the Interrupt-Driven Method
The UART Transmitter interrupt indicates the availability of the Transmit Data register to
accept new data for transmission. Follow the steps below to configure the UART for interrupt-driven data transmission:
1. Write to the UART Baud Rate High and Low Byte registers to set the appropriate baud
rate.
2. Enable the UART pin functions by configuring the associated GPIO Port pins for
alternate function operation.
3. Execute a DI instruction to disable interrupts.
4. Write to the Interrupt control registers to enable the UART Transmitter interrupt and
set the acceptable priority.
5. Write to the UART Control 1 register to enable MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) mode
functions, if MULTIPROCESSOR mode is appropriate.
6. Set the MULTIPROCESSOR Mode Select (MPEN) to Enable MULTIPROCESSOR
mode.
7. Write to the UART Control 0 register to:
– Set the transmit enable bit (TEN) to enable the UART for data transmission.

The UART is now configured for interrupt-driven data transmission. Because the UART
Transmit Data register is empty, an interrupt is generated immediately. When the UART
Transmit interrupt is detected, the associated interrupt service routine (ISR) performs the
following:
1. Write the UART Control 1 register to select the multiprocessor bit for the byte to be
transmitted:
2. Set the Multiprocessor Bit Transmitter (MPBT) if sending an address byte, clear it if
sending a data byte.
3. Write the data byte to the UART Transmit Data register. The transmitter automatically
transfers the data to the Transmit Shift register and transmits the data.
4. Clear the UART Transmit interrupt bit in the applicable Interrupt Request register.
5. Execute the IRET instruction to return from the interrupt-service routine and wait for
the Transmit Data register to again become empty.
Receiving Data using the Polled Method
Follow the steps below to configure the UART for polled data reception:
1. Write to the UART Baud Rate High and Low Byte registers to set an acceptable baud
rate for the incoming data stream.
2. Enable the UART pin functions by configuring the associated GPIO Port pins for
alternate function operation.
3. Write to the UART Control 1 register to enable MULTIPROCESSOR mode functions,
if appropriate.
4. Write to the UART Control 0 register to:
– Set the receive enable bit (REN) to enable the UART for data reception
– Enable parity, if appropriate and if Multiprocessor mode is not enabled, and select
either even or odd parity.
5. Check the RDA bit in the UART Status 0 register to determine if the Receive Data
register contains a valid data byte (indicated by a 1). If RDA is set to 1 to indicate
available data, continue to Step 5. If the Receive Data register is empty (indicated by a
0), continue to monitor the RDA bit awaiting reception of the valid data.
6. Read data from the UART Receive Data register. If operating in MULTIPROCESSOR
(9-bit) mode, further actions may be required depending on the MULTIPROCESSOR
mode bits MPMD[1:0].
7. Return to Step 4 to receive additional data.

Receiving Data using the Interrupt-Driven Method
The UART Receiver interrupt indicates the availability of new data (as well as error
conditions). Follow the steps below to configure the UART receiver for interrupt-driven
operation:
1. Write to the UART Baud Rate High and Low Byte registers to set the acceptable baud
rate.
2. Enable the UART pin functions by configuring the associated GPIO Port pins for
alternate function operation.
3. Execute a DI instruction to disable interrupts.
4. Write to the Interrupt control registers to enable the UART Receiver interrupt and set
the acceptable priority.
5. Clear the UART Receiver interrupt in the applicable Interrupt Request register.
6. Write to the UART Control 1 Register to enable Multiprocessor (9-bit) mode
functions, if appropriate.
– Set the Multiprocessor Mode Select (MPEN) to Enable MULTIPROCESSOR
mode.
– Set the Multiprocessor Mode Bits, MPMD[1:0], to select the acceptable address
matching scheme.
– Configure the UART to interrupt on received data and errors or errors only
(interrupt on errors only is unlikely to be useful for Z8 Encore!® devices without a
DMA block)
7. Write the device address to the Address Compare Register (automatic MULTIPROCESSOR modes only).
8. Write to the UART Control 0 register to:
– Set the receive enable bit (REN) to enable the UART for data reception
– Enable parity, if appropriate and if multiprocessor mode is not enabled, and select
either even or odd parity.
9. Execute an EI instruction to enable interrupts.
The UART is now configured for interrupt-driven data reception. When the UART
Receiver interrupt is detected, the associated interrupt service routine (ISR) performs the
following:
1. Checks the UART Status 0 register to determine the source of the interrupt - error,
break, or received data.
2. Reads the data from the UART Receive Data register if the interrupt was because of
data available. If operating in MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) mode, further actions may
be required depending on the MULTIPROCESSOR mode bits MPMD[1:0].

3. Clears the UART Receiver interrupt in the applicable Interrupt Request register.
4. Executes the IRET instruction to return from the interrupt-service routine and await
more data.
Clear To Send (CTS) Operation
The CTS pin, if enabled by the CTSE bit of the UART Control 0 register, performs flow
control on the outgoing transmit datastream. The Clear To Send (CTS) input pin is sampled one system clock before beginning any new character transmission. To delay transmission of the next data character, an external receiver must deassert CTS at least one
system clock cycle before a new data transmission begins. For multiple character transmissions, this action is typically performed during Stop Bit transmission. If CTS deasserts
in the middle of a character transmission, the current character is sent completely.
MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) Mode
The UART has a MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) mode that uses an extra (9th) bit for selective communication when a number of processors share a common UART bus. In MULTIPROCESSOR mode (also referred to as 9-bit mode), the multiprocessor bit (MP) is
transmitted immediately following the 8-bits of data and immediately preceding the Stop
bit(s) as displayed in Figure 13. The character format is:

Figure 13. UART Asynchronous MULTIPROCESSOR Mode Data Format
In MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) mode, the Parity bit location (9th bit) becomes the
Multiprocessor control bit. The UART Control 1 and Status 1 registers provide MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) mode control and status information. If an automatic address matching scheme is enabled, the UART Address Compare register holds the network address of
the device.
MULTIPROCESSOR (9-bit) Mode Receive Interrupts
When MULTIPROCESSOR mode is enabled, the UART only processes frames addressed
to it. The determination of whether a frame of data is addressed to the UART can be made
in hardware, software or some combination of the two, depending on the multiprocessor
PS022825-0908
Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
104
configuration bits. In general, the address compare feature reduces the load on the CPU,
because it does not require access to the UART when it receives data directed to other
devices on the multi-node network. The following three MULTIPROCESSOR modes are
available in hardware:
1. Interrupt on all address bytes.
2. Interrupt on matched address bytes and correctly framed data bytes.
3. Interrupt only on correctly framed data bytes.
These modes are selected with MPMD[1:0] in the UART Control 1 Register. For all multiprocessor modes, bit MPEN of the UART Control 1 Register must be set to 1.
The first scheme is enabled by writing 01b to MPMD[1:0]. In this mode, all incoming
address bytes cause an interrupt, while data bytes never cause an interrupt. The interrupt
service routine must manually check the address byte that caused triggered the interrupt. If
it matches the UART address, the software clears MPMD[0]. Each new incoming byte
interrupts the CPU. The software is responsible for determining the end of the frame. It
checks for the end-of-frame by reading the MPRX bit of the UART Status 1 Register for
each incoming byte. If MPRX=1, a new frame has begun. If the address of this new frame
is different from the UART’s address, MPMD[0] must be set to 1 causing the UART interrupts to go inactive until the next address byte. If the new frame’s address matches the
UART’s, the data in the new frame is processed as well.
The second scheme requires the following: set MPMD[1:0] to 10B and write the UART’s
address into the UART Address Compare Register. This mode introduces additional hardware control, interrupting only on frames that match the UART’s address. When an
incoming address byte does not match the UART’s address, it is ignored. All successive
data bytes in this frame are also ignored. When a matching address byte occurs, an interrupt is issued and further interrupts now occur on each successive data byte. When the first
data byte in the frame is read, the NEWFRM bit of the UART Status 1 Register is asserted.
All successive data bytes have NEWFRM=0. When the next address byte occurs, the hardware compares it to the UART’s address. If there is a match, the interrupts continues and
the NEWFRM bit is set for the first byte of the new frame. If there is no match, the UART
ignores all incoming bytes until the next address match.
The third scheme is enabled by setting MPMD[1:0] to 11b and by writing the UART’s
address into the UART Address Compare Register. This mode is identical to the second
scheme, except that there are no interrupts on address bytes. The first data byte of each
frame remains accompanied by a NEWFRM assertion.
External Driver Enable
The UART provides a Driver Enable (DE) signal for off-chip bus transceivers. This
feature reduces the software overhead associated with using a GPIO pin to control the
transceiver when communicating on a multi-transceiver bus, such as RS-485.
PS022825-0908
Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
105
Driver Enable is an active High signal that envelopes the entire transmitted data frame
including parity and Stop bits as displayed in Figure 14. The Driver Enable signal asserts
when a byte is written to the UART Transmit Data register. The Driver Enable signal
asserts at least one UART bit period and no greater than two UART bit periods before the
Start bit is transmitted. This allows a setup time to enable the transceiver. The Driver
Enable signal deasserts one system clock period after the final Stop bit is transmitted. This
one system clock delay allows both time for data to clear the transceiver before disabling
it, as well as the ability to determine if another character follows the current character. In
the event of back to back characters (new data must be written to the Transmit Data Register before the previous character is completely transmitted) the DE signal is not deasserted
between characters. The DEPOL bit in the UART Control Register 1 sets the polarity of
the Driver Enable signal.

UART Interrupts
The UART features separate interrupts for the transmitter and the receiver. In addition,
when the UART primary functionality is disabled, the Baud Rate Generator can also
function as a basic timer with interrupt capability.
Transmitter Interrupts
The transmitter generates a single interrupt when the Transmit Data Register Empty bit
(TDRE) is set to 1. This indicates that the transmitter is ready to accept new data for transmission. The TDRE interrupt occurs after the Transmit shift register has shifted the first
bit of data out. The Transmit Data register can now be written with the next character to

Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series

106
send. This action provides 7 bit periods of latency to load the Transmit Data register
before the Transmit shift register completes shifting the current character. Writing to the
UART Transmit Data register clears the TDRE bit to 0.
Receiver Interrupts
The receiver generates an interrupt when any of the following occurs:
•
A data byte is received and is available in the UART Receive Data register. This
interrupt can be disabled independently of the other receiver interrupt sources. The
received data interrupt occurs after the receive character has been received and placed
in the Receive Data register. To avoid an overrun error, software must respond to this
received data available condition before the next character is completely received.
Note:
In MULTIPROCESSOR mode (MPEN = 1), the receive data interrupts are dependent on the multiprocessor configuration and the most recent address byte.
•
•
•
A break is received.
An overrun is detected.
A data framing error is detected.
UART Overrun Errors
When an overrun error condition occurs the UART prevents overwriting of the valid data
currently in the Receive Data register. The Break Detect and Overrun status bits are not
displayed until after the valid data has been read.
After the valid data has been read, the UART Status 0 register is updated to indicate the
overrun condition (and Break Detect, if applicable). The RDA bit is set to 1 to indicate that
the Receive Data register contains a data byte. However, because the overrun error
occurred, this byte may not contain valid data and must be ignored. The BRKD bit indicates if the overrun was caused by a break condition on the line. After reading the status
byte indicating an overrun error, the Receive Data register must be read again to clear the
error bits is the UART Status 0 register. Updates to the Receive Data register occur only
when the next data word is received.

Baud Rate Generator Interrupts
If the baud rate generator (BRG) interrupt enable is set, the UART Receiver interrupt
asserts when the UART Baud Rate Generator reloads. This condition allows the Baud
Rate Generator to function as an additional counter if the UART functionality is not
employed.
UART Baud Rate Generator
The UART Baud Rate Generator creates a lower frequency baud rate clock for data
transmission. The input to the Baud Rate Generator is the system clock. The UART Baud
Rate High and Low Byte registers combine to create a 16-bit baud rate divisor value

(BRG[15:0]) that sets the data transmission rate (baud rate) of the UART. The UART data
rate is calculated using the following equation:
UART Data Rate (bits/s)
System Clock Frequency (Hz)
= --------------------------------------------------------------------------------16 × UART Baud Rate Divisor Value
When the UART is disabled, the Baud Rate Generator functions as a basic 16-bit timer
with interrupt on time-out. Follow the steps below to configure the Baud Rate Generator
as a timer with interrupt on time-out:
1. Disable the UART by clearing the REN and TEN bits in the UART Control 0 register
to 0.
2. Load the acceptable 16-bit count value into the UART Baud Rate High and Low Byte
registers.
3. Enable the Baud Rate Generator timer function and associated interrupt by setting the
BRGCTL bit in the UART Control 1 register to 1.
When configured as a general purpose timer, the interrupt interval is calculated using the
following equation:
Interrupt Interval ( s ) = System Clock Period (s) × BRG [ 15:0 ]
UART Control Register Definitions
The UART control registers support the UART and the associated Infrared Encoder/
Decoders. For more information on infrared operation, see Infrared Encoder/Decoder on

UART Control 0 and Control 1 Registers
The UART Control 0 (UxCTL0) and Control 1 (UxCTL1) registers (Table 61 and

Infrared Encoder/Decoder
The Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series products contain a fully-functional,
high-performance UART to Infrared Encoder/Decoder (Endec). The Infrared Endec is
integrated with an on-chip UART to allow easy communication between the Z8 Encore!
and IrDA Physical Layer Specification, Version 1.3-compliant infrared transceivers.
Infrared communication provides secure, reliable, low-cost, point-to-point communication
between PCs, PDAs, cell phones, printers, and other infrared enabled devices.

Operation
When the Infrared Endec is enabled, the transmit data from the associated on-chip UART
is encoded as digital signals in accordance with the IrDA standard and output to the
infrared transceiver through the TXD pin. Likewise, data received from the infrared
transceiver is passed to the Infrared Endec through the RXD pin, decoded by the Infrared

Endec, and passed to the UART. Communication is half-duplex, which means
simultaneous data transmission and reception is not allowed.
The baud rate is set by the UART’s Baud Rate Generator and supports IrDA standard baud
rates from 9600 baud to 115.2 kbaud. Higher baud rates are possible, but do not meet IrDA
specifications. The UART must be enabled to use the Infrared Endec. The Infrared Endec
data rate is calculated using the following equation:
Infrared Data Rate (bits/s)
System Clock Frequency (Hz)
= --------------------------------------------------------------------------------16 × UART Baud Rate Divisor Value
Transmitting IrDA Data
The data to be transmitted using the infrared transceiver is first sent to the UART. The
UART’s transmit signal (TXD) and baud rate clock are used by the IrDA to generate the
modulation signal (IR_TXD) that drives the infrared transceiver. Each UART/Infrared
data bit is 16 clocks wide. If the data to be transmitted is 1, the IR_TXD signal remains
low for the full 16 clock period. If the data to be transmitted is 0, the transmitter first outputs a 7 clock low period, followed by a 3 clock high pulse. Finally, a 6 clock low pulse is
output to complete the full 16 clock data period. Figure 17 displays IrDA data transmission. When the Infrared Endec is enabled, the UART’s TXD signal is internal to the
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series products while the IR_TXD signal is output through the
TXD pin.

Receiving IrDA Data
Data received from the infrared transceiver using the IR_RXD signal through the RXD pin
is decoded by the Infrared Endec and passed to the UART. The UART’s baud rate clock is
used by the Infrared Endec to generate the demodulated signal (RXD) that drives the
UART. Each UART/Infrared data bit is 16-clocks wide. Figure 18 displays data reception.

Caution: The system clock frequency must be at least 1.0 MHz to ensure proper reception of the
1.4 μs minimum width pulses allowed by the IrDA standard.
Endec Receiver Synchronization
The IrDA receiver uses a local baud rate clock counter (0 to 15 clock periods) to generate
an input stream for the UART and to create a sampling window for detection of incoming
pulses. The generated UART input (UART RXD) is delayed by 8 baud rate clock periods
with respect to the incoming IrDA data stream. When a falling edge in the input data
stream is detected, the Endec counter is reset. When the count reaches a value of 8, the
UART RXD value is updated to reflect the value of the decoded data. When the count
reaches 12 baud clock periods, the sampling window for the next incoming pulse opens.
The window remains open until the count again reaches 8 (that is, 24 baud clock periods
since the previous pulse was detected), giving the Endec a sampling window of minus four
PS022825-0908
Infrared Encoder/Decoder
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
120
baud rate clocks to plus eight baud rate clocks around the expected time of an incoming
pulse. If an incoming pulse is detected inside this window this process is repeated. If the
incoming data is a logical 1 (no pulse), the Endec returns to the initial state and waits for
the next falling edge. As each falling edge is detected, the Endec clock counter is reset,
resynchronizing the Endec to the incoming signal, allowing the Endec to tolerate jitter and
baud rate errors in the incoming datastream. Resynchronizing the Endec does not alter the
operation of the UART, which ultimately receives the data. The UART is only synchronized to the incoming data stream when a Start bit is received.
Infrared Encoder/Decoder Control Register Definitions
All Infrared Endec configuration and status information is set by the UART control
registers as defined in Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter on page 97.
Caution: To prevent spurious signals during IrDA data transmission, set the IREN bit in the
UART Control 1 register to 1 to enable the Infrared Encoder/Decoder before enabling
the GPIO Port alternate function for the corresponding pin.

Operation
Data Format
In both SINGLE-ENDED and DIFFERENTIAL modes, the effective output of the ADC is
an 11-bit, signed, two’s complement digital value. In DIFFERENTIAL mode, the ADC
PS022825-0908
Analog-to-Digital Converter
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
123
can output values across the entire 11-bit range, from -1024 to +1023. In
SINGLE-ENDED mode, the output generally ranges from 0 to +1023, but offset errors
can cause small negative values.
The ADC registers actually return 13 bits of data, but the two LSBs are intended for compensation use only. When the software compensation routine is performed on the 13 bit
raw ADC value, two bits of resolution are lost because of a rounding error. As a result, the
final value is an 11-bit number.
Hardware Overflow
When the hardware overflow bit (OVF) is set in ADC Data Low Byte (ADCD_L) register,
all other data bits are invalid. The hardware overflow bit is set for values greater than Vref
and less than -Vref (DIFFERENTIAL mode).
Automatic Powerdown
If the ADC is idle (no conversions in progress) for 160 consecutive system clock cycles,
portions of the ADC are automatically powered down. From this powerdown state, the
ADC requires 40 system clock cycles to power up. The ADC powers up when a
conversion is requested by the ADC Control register.
Single-Shot Conversion
When configured for single-shot conversion, the ADC performs a single analog-to-digital
conversion on the selected analog input channel. After completion of the conversion, the
ADC shuts down. Follow the steps below for setting up the ADC and initiating a singleshot conversion:
1. Enable the desired analog inputs by configuring the general-purpose I/O pins for
alternate analog function. This configuration disables the digital input and output
drivers.
2. Write the ADC Control/Status Register 1 to configure the ADC.
– Write to BUFMODE[2:0] to select SINGLE-ENDED or DIFFERENTIAL
mode, as well as unbuffered or buffered mode.
– Write the REFSELH bit of the pair {REFSELH, REFSELL} to select the internal
voltage reference level or to disable the internal reference. The REFSELL bit
is. contained in the ADC Control Register 0.
3. Write to the ADC Control Register 0 to configure the ADC and begin the conversion.
The bit fields in the ADC Control register can be written simultaneously (the ADC
can be configured and enabled with the same write instruction):
– Write to the ANAIN[3:0] field to select from the available analog input
sources (different input pins available depending on the device).
– Clear CONT to 0 to select a single-shot conversion.
PS022825-0908
Analog-to-Digital Converter
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
124
–
–
–
If the internal voltage reference must be output to a pin, set the REFEXT bit to
1. The internal voltage reference must be enabled in this case.
Write the REFSELL bit of the pair {REFSELH, REFSELL} to select the internal
voltage reference level or to disable the internal reference. The REFSELH bit is
contained in the ADC Control/Status Register 1.
Set CEN to 1 to start the conversion.
4. CEN remains 1 while the conversion is in progress. A single-shot conversion requires
5129 system clock cycles to complete. If a single-shot conversion is requested from an
ADC powered-down state, the ADC uses 40 additional clock cycles to power up
before beginning the 5129 cycle conversion.
5. When the conversion is complete, the ADC control logic performs the following
operations:
– 13-bit two’s-complement result written to {ADCD_H[7:0], ADCD_L[7:3]}.
– Sends an interrupt request to the Interrupt Controller denoting conversion
complete.
– CEN resets to 0 to indicate the conversion is complete.
6. If the ADC remains idle for 160 consecutive system clock cycles, it is automatically
powered-down.
Continuous Conversion
When configured for continuous conversion, the ADC continuously performs an
analog-to-digital conversion on the selected analog input. Each new data value over-writes
the previous value stored in the ADC Data registers. An interrupt is generated after each
conversion.
Caution: In CONTINUOUS mode, ADC updates are limited by the input signal bandwidth of the
ADC and the latency of the ADC and its digital filter. Step changes at the input are not
immediately detected at the next output from the ADC. The response of the ADC (in all
modes) is limited by the input signal bandwidth and the latency.
Follow the steps below for setting up the ADC and initiating continuous conversion:
1. Enable the desired analog input by configuring the general-purpose I/O pins for
alternate function. This action disables the digital input and output driver.
2. Write the ADC Control/Status Register 1 to configure the ADC.
– Write to BUFMODE[2:0] to select SINGLE-ENDED or DIFFERENTIAL
mode, as well as unbuffered or buffered mode.
– Write the REFSELH bit of the pair {REFSELH, REFSELL} to select the internal
voltage reference level or to disable the internal reference. The REFSELL bit is
contained in the ADC Control Register 0.
PS022825-0908
Analog-to-Digital Converter
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
125
3. Write to the ADC Control Register 0 to configure the ADC for continuous conversion.
The bit fields in the ADC Control register may be written simultaneously:
– Write to the ANAIN[3:0] field to select from the available analog input
sources (different input pins available depending on the device).
– Set CONT to 1 to select continuous conversion.
– If the internal VREF must be output to a pin, set the REFEXT bit to 1. The
internal voltage reference must be enabled in this case.
– Write the REFSELL bit of the pair {REFSELH, REFSELL} to select the
internal voltage reference level or to disable the internal reference. The
REFSELH bit is contained in ADC Control/Status Register 1.
– Set CEN to 1 to start the conversions.
4. When the first conversion in continuous operation is complete (after 5129 system
clock cycles, plus the 40 cycles for power-up, if necessary), the ADC control logic
performs the following operations:
– CEN resets to 0 to indicate the first conversion is complete. CEN remains 0 for
all subsequent conversions in continuous operation.
– An interrupt request is sent to the Interrupt Controller to indicate the
conversion is complete.
5. The ADC writes a new data result every 256 system clock cycles. For each completed
conversion, the ADC control logic performs the following operations:
– Writes the 13-bit two’s complement result to {ADCD_H[7:0],
ADCD_L[7:3]}.
– Sends an interrupt request to the Interrupt Controller denoting conversion
complete.
6. To disable continuous conversion, clear the CONT bit in the ADC Control Register
to 0.
Interrupts
The ADC is able to interrupt the CPU when a conversion has been completed. When the
ADC is disabled, no new interrupts are asserted; however, an interrupt pending when the
ADC is disabled is not cleared.
Calibration and Compensation
The Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series ADC is factory calibrated for offset error and gain
error, with the compensation data stored in Flash memory. Alternatively, you can perform
your own calibration, storing the values into Flash themselves. Thirdly, the user code can
perform a manual offset calibration during DIFFERENTIAL mode operation.
PS022825-0908

Factory Calibration
Devices that have been factory calibrated contain 30 bytes of calibration data in the Flash
option bit space. This data consists of 3 bytes for each input mode, one for offset and two
for gain correction. For a list of input modes for which calibration data exists, see Zilog
Calibration Data on page 161.
User Calibration
If you have precision references available, its own external calibration can be performed
using any input modes. This calibration data takes into account buffer offset and non-linearity, so it is recommended that this calibration be performed separately for each of the
ADC input modes planned for use.
Manual Offset Calibration
When uncalibrated, the ADC has significant offset (see Table 135 on page 231). Subsequently, manual offset calibration capability is built into the block. When the ADC Control Register 0 sets the input mode (ANAIN[2:0]) to MANUAL OFFSET
CALIBRATION mode, the differential inputs to the ADC are shorted together by an internal switch. Reading the ADC value at this point produces 0 in an ideal system. The value
actually read is the ADC offset. This value can be stored in non-volatile memory (see
Non-Volatile Data Storage on page 169) and accessed by user code to compensate for the
input offset error. There is no provision for manual gain calibration.
Software Compensation Procedure Using Factory Calibration Data
The value read from the ADC high and low byte registers is uncompensated. The user
mode software must apply gain and offset correction to this uncompensated value for
maximum accuracy. The following equation yields the compensated value:
ADC comp = ( ADC uncomp – OFFCAL ) + ( ( ADC uncomp – OFFCAL ) × GAINCAL ) ⁄ 2
16
where GAINCAL is the gain calibration value, OFFCAL is the offset calibration value and
ADCuncomp is the uncompensated value read from the ADC. All values are in two’s complement format.
Note:
The offset compensation is performed first, followed by the gain compensation. One
bit of resolution is lost because of rounding on both the offset and gain computations.
As a result the ADC registers read back 13 bits: 1 sign bit, two calibration bits lost to
rounding and 10 data bits.
Also note that in the second term, the multiplication must be performed before the
division by 216. Otherwise, the second term incorrectly evaluates to zero.

Caution:
Although the ADC can be used without the gain and offset compensation, it does exhibit
non-unity gain. Designing the ADC with sub-unity gain reduces noise across the ADC
range but requires the ADC results to be scaled by a factor of 8/7.

High efficiency assembly code that performs this compensation is available for download

The overflow bit in the corrected output indicates that the computed value was greater
than the maximum logical value (+1023) or less than the minimum logical value (-1024).
Unlike the hardware overflow bit, this is not a simple binary Flag. For a normal sample
(non-overflow), the sign and the overflow bit matches. If the sign bit and overflow bit do
not match, a computational overflow has occurred.
Input Buffer Stage
Many applications require the measurement of an input voltage source with a high output
impedance. This ADC provides a buffered input for such situations. The drawback of the
buffered input is a limitation of the input range. When using unity gain buffered mode, the
input signal must be prevented from coming too close to either VSS or VDD. See Table 135
on page 231 for details.
This condition applies only to the input voltage level (with respect to ground) of each differential input signal. The actual differential input voltage magnitude may be less than 300
mV.
The input range of the unbuffered ADC swings from VSS to VDD. Input signals smaller
than 300 mV must use the unbuffered input mode. If these signals do not contain low output impedances, they might require off-chip buffering.
Signals outside the allowable input range can be used without instability or device damage. Any ADC readings made outside the input range are subject to greater inaccuracy
than specified.

Low Power Operational Amplifier
Overview
The LPO is a general-purpose low power operational amplifier. Each of the three ports of
the amplifier is accessible from the package pins. The LPO contains only one pin configuration: ANA0 is the output/feedback node, ANA1 is the inverting input and ANA2 is the
non-inverting input.
Operation
To use the LPO, it must be enabled in the Power Control Register 0 (PWRCTL0). The
default state of the LPO is OFF. To use the LPO, the LPO bit must be cleared, turning it
ON (Power Control Register 0 (PWRCTL0) on page 35). When making normal ADC
measurements on ANA0 (measurements not involving the LPO output), the LPO bit must
be OFF. Turning the LPO bit ON interferes with normal ADC measurements.
The LPO bit enables the amplifier even in STOP mode. If the amplifier is not required
Warning: in STOP mode, disable it. Failing to perform this results in STOP mode currents
higher than necessary.
As with other ADC measurements, any pins used for analog purposes must be configured
as such in the GPIO registers (see Port A–D Alternate Function Sub-Registers on
page 47).
LPO output measurements are made on ANA0, as selected by the ANAIN[3:0] bits of
ADC Control Register 0. It is also possible to make single-ended measurements on ANA1
and ANA2 while the amplifier is enabled, which is often useful for determining offset conditions. Differential measurements between ANA0 and ANA2 may be useful for noise
cancellation purposes.
If the LPO output is routed to the ADC, then the BUFFMODE[2:0] bits of ADC Control/Status Register 1 must also be configured for unity-gain buffered operation. Sampling the
LPO in an unbuffered mode is not recommended.
When either input is overdriven, the amplifier output saturates at the positive or negative
supply voltage. No instability results.

reference and the temperature sensor output voltage are available internally. The output is
available as an interrupt source or can be routed to an external pin.

When the positive comparator input exceeds the negative input by more than the specified
hysteresis, the output is a logic HIGH. When the negative input exceeds the positive by
more than the hysteresis, the output is a logic LOW. Otherwise, the comparator output
retains its present value. See Table 137 on page 233 for details.
The comparator may be powered down to reduce supply current. See Power Control Register 0 on page 34 for details.
Caution: Because of the propagation delay of the comparator, it is not recommended to enable or
reconfigure the comparator without first disabling interrupts and waiting for the
comparator output to settle. Doing so can result in spurious interrupts. The following

Temperature Sensor
The on-chip Temperature Sensor allows you to measure temperature on the die with either
the on-board ADC or on-board comparator. This block is factory calibrated for in-circuit
software correction. Uncalibrated accuracy is significantly worse, therefore the temperature sensor is not recommended for uncalibrated use.
Temperature Sensor Operation
The on-chip temperature sensor is a Proportional to Absolute Temperature (PTAT)
topology. A pair of Flash option bytes contain the calibration data. The temperature sensor
can be disabled by a bit in the Power Control Register 0 on page 34 to reduce power
consumption.
The temperature sensor can be directly read by the ADC to determine the absolute value of
its output. The temperature sensor output is also available as an input to the comparator for
threshold type measurement determination. The accuracy of the sensor when used with the
comparator is substantially less than when measured by the ADC.
If the temperature sensor is routed to the ADC, the ADC must be configured in unity-gain
buffered mode (see Input Buffer Stage on page 129) The value read back from the ADC is
a signed number, although it is always positive.
The sensor is factory-trimmed through the ADC using the external 2.0 V reference. Unless
the sensor is re-trimmed for use with a different reference, it is most accurate when used
with the external 2.0 V reference.
Because this sensor is an on-chip sensor it is recommended that the user account for the
difference between ambient and die temperature when inferring ambient temperature
conditions.
During normal operation, the die undergoes heating that causes a mismatch between the
ambient temperature and that measured by the sensor. For best results, the
Z8 Encore! XP® device must be placed into STOP mode for sufficient time such that the
die and ambient temperatures converge (this time is dependent on the thermal design of
the system). The temperature sensor measurement must then be made immediately after
recovery from STOP mode.
The following equation defines the transfer function between the temperature sensor
output voltage and the die temperature. This is needed for comparator threshold
measurements.
V = 0.01 × T + 0.65
where, T is the temperature in °C; V is the sensor output in volts.
PS022825-0908
Temperature Sensor
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification

Assuming a compensated ADC measurement, the following equation defines the relationship between the ADC reading and the die temperature:
T = ( 25 ⁄ 128 ) × ( ADC – TSCAL [ 11:2 ] ) + 30
where, T is the temperature in C; ADC is the 10-bit compensated ADC value; and TSCAL
is the temperature sensor calibration value, ignoring the two least significant bits of the
12-bit value.
See Temperature Sensor Calibration Data on page 164 for the location of TSCAL.
Calibration
The temperature sensor undergoes calibration during the manufacturing process and is
maximally accurate at 30 °C. Accuracy decreases as measured temperatures move further
from the calibration point.

Architecture
The Flash memory array is arranged in pages with 512 bytes per page. The 512 byte page
is the minimum Flash block size that can be erased. Each page is divided into 8 rows of 64
bytes.
For program or data protection, the Flash memory is also divided into sectors. In the
Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series, these sectors are either 1024 bytes (in the 8 KB devices) or
512 bytes (all other memory sizes) in size. Page and sector sizes are not
generally equal.
The first 2 bytes of the Flash Program memory are used as Flash Option Bits. For more
information about their operation, see Flash Option Bits on page 153.

Operation
The Flash Controller programs and erases Flash memory. The Flash Controller provides
the proper Flash controls and timing for Byte Programming, Page Erase, and Mass Erase
of Flash memory.
The Flash Controller contains several protection mechanisms to prevent accidental programming or erasure. These mechanism operate on the page, sector and full-memory levels.
The Flow Chart in Figure 22 displays basic Flash Controller operation. The following subsections provide details about the various operations (Lock, Unlock, Byte Programming,
Page Protect, Page Unprotect, Page Select, Page Erase, and Mass Erase) displayed in
Figure 22.

Flash Operation Timing Using the Flash Frequency Registers
Before performing either a program or erase operation on Flash memory, you must first
configure the Flash Frequency High and Low Byte registers. The Flash Frequency
registers allow programming and erasing of the Flash with system clock frequencies
ranging from 32 kHz (32768 Hz) through 20 MHz.
The Flash Frequency High and Low Byte registers combine to form a 16-bit value,
FFREQ, to control timing for Flash program and erase operations. The 16-bit binary Flash
Frequency value must contain the system clock frequency (in kHz). This value is calculated using the following equation:
FFREQ[15:0]
System Clock Frequency (Hz)
= -----------------------------------------------------------------1000
Caution: Flash programming and erasure are not supported for system clock frequencies below
32 kHz (32768 Hz) or above 20 MHz. The Flash Frequency High and Low Byte registers
must be loaded with the correct value to ensure operation of the Z8 Encore! XP® F082A
Series devices.
Flash Code Protection Against External Access
The user code contained within the Flash memory can be protected against external access
by the on-chip debugger. Programming the FRP Flash Option Bit prevents reading of the
user code with the On-Chip Debugger. See Flash Option Bits on page 153 and On-Chip
Debugger on page 173 for more information.
Flash Code Protection Against Accidental Program and Erasure
The Z8 Encore! XP F082A Series provides several levels of protection against
accidental program and erasure of the Flash memory contents. This protection is provided
by a combination of the Flash Option bits, the register locking mechanism, the page select
redundancy and the sector level protection control of the Flash Controller.
Flash Code Protection Using the Flash Option Bits
The FRP and FWP Flash Option Bits combine to provide three levels of Flash Program
Memory protection as listed in Table 77. See Flash Option Bits on page 153 for more
information.

are all disabled. Mass Erase is available through the On-Chip
Debugger.
1
Programming, Page Erase, and Mass Erase are enabled for all of
Flash Program Memory.
Flash Code Protection Using the Flash Controller
At Reset, the Flash Controller locks to prevent accidental program or erasure of the Flash
memory. To program or erase the Flash memory, first write the Page Select Register with
the target page. Unlock the Flash Controller by making two consecutive writes to the
Flash Control register with the values 73H and 8CH, sequentially. The Page Select Register
must be rewritten with the target page. If the two Page Select writes do not match, the controller reverts to a locked state. If the two writes match, the selected page becomes active.
See Figure 22 on page 144 for details.
After unlocking a specific page, you can enable either Page Program or Erase. Writing the
value 95H causes a Page Erase only if the active page resides in a sector that is not protected. Any other value written to the Flash Control register locks the Flash Controller.
Mass Erase is not allowed in the user code but only in through the Debug Port.
After unlocking a specific page, you can also write to any byte on that page. After a byte is
written, the page remains unlocked, allowing for subsequent writes to other bytes on the
same page. Further writes to the Flash Control Register cause the active page to revert to a
locked state.
Sector Based Flash Protection
The final protection mechanism is implemented on a per-sector basis. The Flash memories
of Z8 Encore!® devices are divided into at most 8 sectors. A sector is 1/8 of the total size
of the Flash memory, unless this value is smaller than the page size, in which case the sector and page sizes are equal.
The Sector Protect register controls the protection state of each Flash sector. This register
is shared with the Page Select Register. It is accessed by writing 73H followed by 5EH to
the Flash controller. The next write to the Flash Control Register targets the Sector Protect
Register.
The Sector Protect Register is initialized to 0 on reset, putting each sector into an
unprotected state. When a bit in the Sector Protect Register is written to 1, the corresponding sector is no longer written or erased by the CPU. External Flash programming through

the OCD or via the Flash Controller Bypass mode are unaffected. After a bit of the Sector
Protect Register has been set, it cannot be cleared except by powering down the device.
Byte Programming
The Flash Memory is enabled for byte programming after unlocking the Flash Controller
and successfully enabling either Mass Erase or Page Erase. When the Flash Controller is
unlocked and Mass Erase is successfully completed, all Program Memory locations are
available for byte programming. In contrast, when the Flash Controller is unlocked and
Page Erase is successfully completed, only the locations of the selected page are available
for byte programming. An erased Flash byte contains all 1’s (FFH). The programming
operation can only be used to change bits from 1 to 0. To change a Flash bit (or multiple
bits) from 0 to 1 requires execution of either the Page Erase or Mass Erase commands.
Byte Programming can be accomplished using the On-Chip Debugger's Write Memory
command or eZ8 CPU execution of the LDC or LDCI instructions. Refer to the eZ8 CPU
User Manual (available for download at www.zilog.com) for a description of the LDC and
LDCI instructions. While the Flash Controller programs the Flash memory, the eZ8 CPU
idles but the system clock and on-chip peripherals continue to operate. To exit programming mode and lock the Flash, write any value to the Flash Control register, except the
Mass Erase or Page Erase commands.
Caution: The byte at each address of the Flash memory cannot be programmed (any bits written
to 0) more than twice before an erase cycle occurs. Doing so may result in corrupted
data at the target byte.
Page Erase
The Flash memory can be erased one page (512 bytes) at a time. Page Erasing the Flash
memory sets all bytes in that page to the value FFH. The Flash Page Select register identifies the page to be erased. Only a page residing in an unprotected sector can be erased.
With the Flash Controller unlocked and the active page set, writing the value 95h to the
Flash Control register initiates the Page Erase operation. While the Flash Controller executes the Page Erase operation, the eZ8 CPU idles but the system clock and on-chip
peripherals continue to operate. The eZ8 CPU resumes operation after the Page Erase
operation completes. If the Page Erase operation is performed using the On-Chip Debugger, poll the Flash Status register to determine when the Page Erase operation is complete.
When the Page Erase is complete, the Flash Controller returns to its locked state.
Mass Erase
The Flash memory can also be Mass Erased using the Flash Controller, but only by using
the On-Chip Debugger. Mass Erasing the Flash memory sets all bytes to the value FFH.
With the Flash Controller unlocked and the Mass Erase successfully enabled, writing the
PS022825-0908
Flash Memory
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series
Product Specification
148
value 63H to the Flash Control register initiates the Mass Erase operation. While the Flash
Controller executes the Mass Erase operation, the eZ8 CPU idles but the system clock and
on-chip peripherals continue to operate. Using the On-Chip Debugger, poll the Flash Status register to determine when the Mass Erase operation is complete. When the Mass
Erase is complete, the Flash Controller returns to its locked state.
Flash Controller Bypass
The Flash Controller can be bypassed and the control signals for the Flash memory
brought out to the GPIO pins. Bypassing the Flash Controller allows faster Row Programming algorithms by controlling the Flash programming signals directly.
Row programming is recommended for gang programming applications and large volume
customers who do not require in-circuit initial programming of the Flash memory. Page
Erase operations are also supported when the Flash Controller is bypassed.
For more information on bypassing the Flash Controller, refer to Third-Party Flash Programming Support for Z8 Encore!® MCU Application Note (AN0117) available for download at www.zilog.com.
Flash Controller Behavior in DEBUG Mode
The following changes in behavior of the Flash Controller occur when the Flash Controller is accessed using the On-Chip Debugger:
•
•
The Flash Write Protect option bit is ignored.
•
Programming operations are not limited to the page selected in the Page Select
register.
•
•
Bits in the Flash Sector Protect register can be written to one or zero.
•
•
The Page Select register can be written when the Flash Controller is unlocked.
The Flash Sector Protect register is ignored for programming and erase
operations.
The second write of the Page Select register to unlock the Flash Controller is not
necessary.
The Mass Erase command is enabled through the Flash Control register.
Caution: For security reasons, the Flash controller allows only a single page to be opened for
write/erase. When writing multiple Flash pages, the flash controller must go through the
unlock sequence again to select another page.

Flash Control Register Definitions
Flash Control Register
The Flash Controller must be unlocked using the Flash Control (FCTL) register before
programming or erasing the Flash memory. Writing the sequence 73H 8CH, sequentially,
to the Flash Control register unlocks the Flash Controller. When the Flash Controller is
unlocked, the Flash memory can be enabled for Mass Erase or Page Erase by writing the
appropriate enable command to the FCTL. Page Erase applies only to the active page
selected in Flash Page Select register. Mass Erase is enabled only through the On-Chip
Debugger. Writing an invalid value or an invalid sequence returns the Flash Controller to
its locked state. The Write-only Flash Control Register shares its Register File address
with the read-only Flash Status Register.

The register is used to select one of the available Flash memory pages to be programmed
or erased. Each Flash Page contains 512 bytes of Flash memory. During a Page Erase
operation, all Flash memory having addresses with the most significant 7 bits given by
FPS[6:0] are chosen for program/erase operation.

Flash Sector Protect Register
The Flash Sector Protect (FPROT) register is shared with the Flash Page Select Register.
When the Flash Control Register is written with 73H followed by 5EH, the next write to
this address targets the Flash Sector Protect Register. In all other cases, it targets the Flash
Page Select Register.
This register selects one of the 8 available Flash memory sectors to be protected. The reset
state of each Sector Protect bit is an unprotected state. After a sector is protected by setting
its corresponding register bit, it cannot be unprotected (the register bit cannot be cleared)
without powering down the device.

Flash Frequency High and Low Byte Registers
The Flash Frequency High (FFREQH) and Low Byte (FFREQL) registers combine to
form a 16-bit value, FFREQ, to control timing for Flash program and erase operations.
The 16-bit binary Flash Frequency value must contain the system clock frequency (in
kHz) and is calculated using the following equation:
FFREQ[15:0]
System Clock Frequency
= { FFREQH[7:0],FFREQL[7:0] } = ------------------------------------------------------1000
Caution: The Flash Frequency High and Low Byte registers must be loaded with the correct value
to ensure proper operation of the device. Also, Flash programming and erasure is not
supported for system clock frequencies below 20 kHz or above 20 MHz.

•
•
•
•
Watchdog Timer time-out response selection–interrupt or system reset
•
Voltage Brownout configuration-always enabled or disabled during STOP mode to
reduce STOP mode power consumption
•
Oscillator mode selection-for high, medium, and low power crystal oscillators, or
external RC oscillator
•
Factory trimming information for the internal precision oscillator and low voltage
detection
•
Factory calibration values for ADC, temperature sensor, and Watchdog Timer
compensation
•
Factory serialization and randomized lot identifier (optional)
Watchdog Timer always on (enabled at Reset)

Operation
Option Bit Configuration By Reset
Each time the Flash Option Bits are programmed or erased, the device must be Reset for
the change to take effect. During any reset operation (System Reset, Power-On Reset, or
Stop Mode Recovery), the Flash Option Bits are automatically read from the Flash
Program Memory and written to Option Configuration registers. The Option
Configuration registers control operation of the devices within the Z8 Encore! XP F082A
Series. Option Bit control is established before the device exits Reset and the eZ8 CPU
begins code execution. The Option Configuration registers are not part of the Register File
and are not accessible for read or write access.
PS022825-0908
Flash Option Bits
Z8 Encore! XP® F082A Series

Option Bit Types
User Option Bits
The user option bits are contained in the first two bytes of program memory. User access
to these bits has been provided because these locations contain application-specific device
configurations. The information contained here is lost when page 0 of the program memory is erased.
Trim Option Bits
The trim option bits are contained in the information page of the Flash memory. These bits
are factory programmed values required to optimize the operation of onboard analog circuitry and cannot be permanently altered. Program Memory may be erased without endangering these values. It is possible to alter working values of these bits by accessing the
Trim Bit Address and Data Registers, but these working values are lost after a power loss
or any other reset event.
There are 32 bytes of trim data. To modify one of these values the user code must first
write a value between 00H and 1FH into the Trim Bit Address Register. The next write to
the Trim Bit Data register changes the working value of the target trim data byte.
Reading the trim data requires the user code to write a value between 00H and 1FH into the
Trim Bit Address Register. The next read from the Trim Bit Data register returns the working value of the target trim data byte.
Note:
The trim address range is from information address 20-3F only. The remainder of the
information page is not accessible through the trim bit address and data registers.
Calibration Option Bits
The calibration option bits are also contained in the information page. These bits are factory programmed values intended for use in software correcting the device’s analog performance. To read these values, the user code must employ the LDC instruction to access
the information area of the address space as defined in See Flash Information Area on
page 17.
Serialization Bits
As an optional feature, Zilog® is able to provide factory-programmed serialization. For
serialized products, the individual devices are programmed with unique serial numbers.
These serial numbers are binary values, four bytes in length. The numbers increase in size
with each device, but gaps in the serial sequence may exist.
These serial numbers are stored in the Flash information page (see Reading the Flash
Information Page on page 155 and Serialization Data on page 165 for more details) and
are unaffected by mass erasure of the device's Flash memory.

Randomized Lot Identification Bits
As an optional feature, Zilog is able to provide a factory-programmed random lot
identifier. With this feature, all devices in a given production lot are programmed with the
same random number. This random number is uniquely regenerated for each successive
production lot and is not likely to be repeated.
The randomized lot identifier is a 32 byte binary value, stored in the Flash information
page (see Reading the Flash Information Page on page 155 and Randomized Lot Identifier
on page 166 for more details) and is unaffected by mass erasure of the device's Flash
memory.
