Microprocessors Microprocessors are components that compute binary mathematical commands at a specified rate determined by either an internal or external oscillating input. Characterized by: Memory addresses registers Memory data registers Instruction registers Index registers Stack registers Accumulators Program counters Ex: Motorola Microprocessor 6800 (built in the 1980’s)
Microcontrollers Microcontrollers are microprocessors that have built in peripherals, such as communications ports, I/O ports and others. These devices do not offer physical access to the address register and are usually standalone. They offer a fast and compact control method with limited physical connections and tools.

Motorola MC68HC811E2 Microcontroller
HC11 Power saving (stop) and (wait) modes 2048 bytes of EEPROM 256 bytes of RAM 16 bit timer 8-bit pulse accumulator Real time interrupt circuit Computer operating properly (COP) watchdog system
HC11 Synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Asynchronous Non return to Zero (NRZ) serial Communication Interface (SCI) 8 channel, 8-bit analogue to digital (A/D) converters 38 general purpose I/O pins 16 bidirectional 11 input only, 11 output only Available in 52pin (PLCC) or 48 pin (DIP) packages
Internal Structure of the chip
Nomenclature and symboles Vdd and or Vss mean +5 volts. GND = ground or 0 volts PA1 means Port A pin 1 Vrl = voltage reference low Vrh = voltage reference high Some pins have more than one function, these must be setup prior to use. Default is shown in manual. Pins with a line above mean “not” or anti” polar. Thus when 0volts or a “low” is shown at the reset pin, the chip interprets as a 1 or a “high”.
Reset pin All chips have a master reset pin where a physical reset can occur. Used for emergencies Low power Frozen Testing Startup
Oscillator All CPUs need an oscillator to jump between commands. HC11 is a 4 cycle command chip Operates at 2Mhz with an 8Mhz cristal
Interrupt Request Queue There are many different interrupts on the HC11 Software IRQ (SIR) Multitude of input IRQ Negative Edge Sensitive Positive Edge Sensitive Non-maskable IRQ (XIRQ) Here nothing can stop the interrupt from occurring. Always an external interrupt pin
Port A Port A can be configured as: Four timer input capture (IC) Four timer output compare (OC) Combination of the two One pulse accumulator (PAI) General I/O (note directional limits)
Ports
Port B Port B can be configured for: General purpose output pins Simple Strobed output Often used for 8-bit data communication
Port C Port C pins can be configured for: General I/O Used for full handshake modes during parallel I/O Often used as multiplexed address/data signal communication
Port D Port D pins can be configured for: General I/O Serial Communication Interface (SCI) Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
Port E Port E pins can be configured for: General purpose I/O Analogue for digital input (A/D) Note: for high accuracy of A/D, do not read port E during sampling of A/D, as small disturbances can reduce the accuracy of the results.
Chip Layout
CPU Registers HC11 has five registers and two accumulators Accumulator D = accA + AccB to form a 16 bit accumulator
Condition Code Register (CCR) C = Carry bit, ex: 255+1 = 0 + carry high V = Overflow ex: 255+1 = 0 and v=1 as the sum has overflowed capacity Z = zero bit ex: 1-1 = 0, z=1 N = negative ex: 4-6 = $FD z=1 I = interrupt mask, enables inturrupts H = half carry (when carry is done from bit 3) X = X interrupt mask XIRQ (set only by hardware (XIRQ and Reset pins), cleared only by software) S = Stop disable (sleep mode mask)
Program Counter The program counter always points to the next instruction location to be executed. 16 bit register
Stack pointer Stack is usually initialized at the top of memory and works down The program is located at the bottom of memory and works up If the stack grows too big, it may overwrite the program, causing a fatal crash HC11 has 256 bytes of RAM for the stack 16 bit register
Index Registers HC11 has two index registers X & Y are 16 bits wide Used to index memory fetch or storage of large numbers
Accumulators Accumulator A is 8 bits long Accumulator B is 8 bits long Accumulator D = A + B, where B is the low byte and A is the high byte. AccD is used for large number handling AccA and AccB are the main handlers of numbers within a program
Memory Map
Memory Map 256 Bytes of RAM at top of memory address 2K EEPROM from $F800 to $FFFF 64 byte register block is mapped initially starting from $1000 (this includes mapped address for ports, pins and internal configuration setup) All these can be remapped if needed
End of Day 1 Assignment Part1 Part2 Given a input on the lower nibble (4 bit) of PortC, increment a counter by the input value. Display counter output on PortB (8 bit) Give a block diagram of events, decision and I/O Part2 Give a block diagram of a delay loop Code the delay loop Q: Calculate the time it takes to cycle through your delay loop. Hint: use a nested loop

Topics that will be covered Motorola Language Code Data type and symbols Opcodes, Operands and addressing modes
Data types The default numbering system is decimal in most compilers Hexadecimal number are represented by a $ symbol. Ex: $FF = 255 decimal A number is defined by a# ex1: #45 = 45 decimal. Ex2: #$45 = 69 decimal Binary number are identified by a b. ex: #b101010 = #$2A = #42 decimal Octave numbers are identified by an o ex: #o10 = #$9 = #9 decimal
Instruction Set (hand out in class) Mnemonic = command Operation = what it does Description = description of how it does it Addressing mode = the way it does it Opcode = machine code that the HC11 sees Cycles = number of cycles needed to compute CCR = affected condition code after execution
Addressing modes There are many ways of executing commands. There are six different addressing modes Immediate Direct Extended Indexed Inherent relative
Immediate Argument is contained in the byte(s) immediately following the opcode. Number of bytes following the opcode matches the size of the register or memory location being operated on. The effective address is the address of the byte following the instruction
Example of Immediate Source list: LDAA #$55 ‘load 55 hex into accA Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0100 86 0101 55
Inherent (accumulator/memory) All information necessary to execute the instruction is contained in the opcode. Operations that use only the index register or accumulators, as well as control instructions with no arguments, are included in this addressing mode. These are one-byte or two-byte instructions
Example of Inherent Source list: PSHA ‘push accA to stack Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0100 36 Note: SP = SP -1
Direct addressing mode The address is found in the next memory location following the opcode This enables addressing the first page of memory (256 bytes) Execution time is reduced due to less consumption of space and movement of bits
Example of direct Source list: LDAA $55 ‘load contents from address $0055 hex into accA Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0100 96 0101 55 … 0055 XX Note: After insturction, accA = XX
Indexed Addressing Mode The offset, found in the second memory location of the instruction, is added to the contents of the index register to form a new effective address The effective address is held in a temporary address register so that the contents of the index register are not changed
Example of Indexed Source list: ‘X=#$1000 LDAA #$55,X ‘load contents from address ($55 + X) hex into accA Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0100 A6 0101 55 … 1055 YY Note: After insturction, accA = YY
Extended Addressing mode Used to address locations in full memory map 2nd memory location = address high byte 3rd memory location = address low byte
Example of Extended Source list: LDAA $2055 ‘load contents from address $2055 hex into accA Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0100 B6 0101 20 0110 55 … 2055 ZZ Note: After instruction, accA = ZZ
Relative Addressing Mode Used for branch type instructions Program control may be transferred to some place other than the next sequential memory location Transfer is referenced from the next instruction which the MCU would execute if it did not transfer control 2 byte instruction 2nd byte contains the offset, which is the number of memory locations to branch over Offset is expressed as an 8 bit 2’s compliment number
Example of Relative Branch forward example Source list: BRA #$20 ‘branch forward 32 +1 positions Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0100 20 0101 20 0110 55 … 100100 RR 100101 DD Note: After branch, PC = 100110 and executing DD opcode Note2: Note that opcode for BRA = 20hex, and so is the jump. This is why a miscalculation of branching can crash your program
Example of Relative Branch Backwards example Source list: BRA #$FE ‘branch backwards 2 - 1 positions Object code: Memory location Memory contents 0010 YY 0011 XX 0100 20 ‘BRA #$FE 0101 FE 0110 55 … 100100 RR 100101 DD Note: After branch, PC = 100 and executing 20 opcode Note2: Infinit loop
Subroutines Branch to subroutine will push the PC onto the stack This allows the program to return to the program once the subroutine has been executed. F800 BSR SUB FD00 SUB NOP FD01 NOP FD02 RTS Memory map 00FF 02 00FE F8
