- 7. 7 Microprocessors and Microcontrollers Microprocessor: general-purpose CPU Emphasis is on flexibility and performance Generic user-interface such as keyboard, mouse, etc. Used in a PC, PDA, cell phone, etc. Microcontroller: microprocessor + memory on a single chip Emphasis is on size and cost reduction The user interface is tailored to the application, such as the buttons on a TV remote control Used in a digital watch, TV remote control, car and many common day-to-day appliances
- 8. 8 Terminology Integrated Circuit (IC): A miniaturized electronic circuit that consists of semiconductor devices and passive components contained in a package Central Processing Unit (CPU): This refers to the core of the MCU that executes code Microcontroller Unit (MCU): This is the standard acronym used for microcontrollers, and refers to the full IC that contains the CPU and peripherals. “n-bit” – the “n” refers to the data bus width of the CPU, and is the maximum width of data it can handle at a time Examples: 8-bit MCU, 32-bit MCU
- 9. 9 Microcontroller Architectures Microcontroller architecture refers to the internal hardware organization of a microcontroller Each hardware architecture has its own set of software instructions called assembly language that allows programming of the microcontroller Some of the popular microcontroller architectures Intel 8051 Zilog Z80 Atmel AVR
- 10. 10 The 8051 Microcontroller—A Brief History In 1980, Intel introduced the 8051, relevant today after more than two decades First device in the MCS-51® family of 8-bit microcontrollers In addition to Intel there are other second source suppliers of the ICs, who make microcontrollers that are compatible with the 8051 architecture. In recent years some companies have incorporated many different and additional features into 8051 In 2000, Silicon Laboratories introduced a field programmable, mixed-signal chip (C8051F020) based on the 8051 core CPU This will be the platform for this course.
- 11. 11 Is 8-bit Still Relevant? “n-bit” – the “n” refers to the data bus width of the CPU, and is the maximum width of data it can handle at a time PCs with 64-bit microprocessors are becoming common Over 55% of all processors sold per year are 8-bit processors, which comes to over 3 billion of them per year!* 8-bit microcontrollers are sufficient and cost-effective for many embedded applications More and more advanced features and peripherals are added to 8-bit processors by various vendors 8-bit MCUs are well-suited for low-power applications that use batteries *Note: Statistics from Embedded.com Article ID# 9900861, Dec 2002

- 15. 15 Harvard and von Neumann Architectures Harvard Architecture—a type of computer architecture where the instructions (program code) and data are stored in separate memory spaces Example: Intel 8051 architecture von Neumann Architecture—another type of computer architecture where the instructions and data are stored in the same memory space Example: Intel x86 architecture (Intel Pentium, AMD Athlon, etc.)
- 16. 16 MCU Fetch-Execute Cycle Fetch operation—retrieves an instruction from the location in code memory pointed to by the program counter (PC) Execute operation— executes the instruction that was fetched during the fetch operation. In addition to executing the instruction, the CPU also adds the appropriate number to the PC to point it to the next instruction to be fetched. Program Counter (PC) Code Memory F e t c h CPU + To other peripherals

- 18. 18 C8051F020 Data Memory (RAM) Internal Data Memory space is divided into three sections Lower 128 Upper 128 Special function register (SFR) There are 384 bytes of memory space physically, though the Upper 128 and SFRs share the same addresses from location 80H to FFH. Appropriate instructions should be used to access each memory block

- 20. 20 Special Function Registers (SFRs) SFRs provide control and data exchange with the microcontroller’s resources and peripherals Registers which have their byte addresses ending with 0H or 8H are byte- as well as bit- addressable Some registers are not bit- addressable. These include the stack pointer (SP) and data pointer register (DPTR)
- 21. 21 Summary of SFRs Accumulator (ACC) and B register ACC (also referred to as A) is used implicitly by several instructions B is used implicitly in multiply and divide operations These registers are the input/output of the arithmetic and logic unit (ALU) Program status word—PSW Shows the status of arithmetic and logical operations using multiple bits such as Carry Selects the Register Bank (Bank 0 - Bank 3) Stack pointer—SP Data pointer—DPTR (DPH and DPL) 16-bit register used to access external code or data memory Timer Registers—TH0, TL0, TH1, TL1, TMOD, TCON Used for timing intervals or counting events Parallel I/O Port Registers—P0, P1, P2 and P3 Serial Communication Registers—SBUF and SCON Interrupt Management Registers—IP and IE Power Control Register—PCON
