SX18AC / SX20AC / SX28AC
High-Performance 8-Bit Microcontrollers with EE/Flash Program
Memory and In-System Programming Capability
1.0PRODUCT OVERVIEW
1.1Introduction
The SX18AC, SX20AC, and SX28AC are members of
the SX family of high-performance 8-bit microcontrollers
fabricated in an advanced CMOS process technology.
The advanced process, combined with a RISC-based
architecture, allows high-speed computation, flexible I/O
control, and efficient data manipulation. Throughput is
enhanced by operating the device at frequencies up to 50
MHz and by optimizing the instruction set to include
mostly single-cycle instructions.
On-chip functions include a general-purpose 8-bit timer
with prescaler, an analog comparator, a brown-out detec-
tor, a watchdog timer, a power-save mode with multi-
source wakeup capability, an internal R/C oscillator, user-
selectable clock modes, and high-current outputs.

1.3Architecture
The SX devices use a modified Harvard architecture.
This architecture uses two separate memories with sepa-
rate address buses, one for the program and one for
data, while allowing transfer of data from program mem-
ory to SRAM. This ability allows accessing data tables
from program memory. The advantage of this architec-
ture is that instruction fetch and memory transfers can be
overlapped with a multi-stage pipeline, which means the
next instruction can be fetched from program memory
while the current instruction is being executed using data
from the data memory.
The SX family implements a four-stage pipeline (fetch,
decode, execute, and write back), which results in execu-
tion of one instruction per clock cycle. At the maximum
operating frequency of 50 MHz, instructions are executed
at the rate of one per 20-ns clock cycle.
1.4Programming and Debugging Support
The SX devices are currently supported by the SX-Key™
offered by Parallax, Inc. This tool provides an integrated
development environment including editor, macro assem-
bler, debugger, and programmer.
1.5Applications
Emerging applications and advances in existing ones
require higher performance while maintaining low cost
and fast time-to-market.
The SX devices provide solutions for many familiar appli-
cations such as process controllers, electronic appli-
ances/tools, security/monitoring systems, and personal
communication devices. In addition, the enhanced
throughput allows efficient development of software mod-
ules called Virtual Peripherals to replace on-chip hard-
ware peripherals. The concept of Virtual Peripherals
provides benefits such as using a more simple device,
reduced component count, fast time to market, increased
flexibility in design, and ultimately overall system cost
reduction.
Some examples of Virtual Peripheral modules are:
Serial, Parallel, I2C™, Microwire™ (µ-Wire), Dallas µ-
Wire, SPI, DMX-512, X-10, IR transceivers

3.0PORT DESCRIPTIONS
The device contains a 4-bit I/O port (Port A) and two 8-bit
I/O ports (Port B, Port C). Port A provides symmetrical
drive capability. Each port has three associated 8-bit reg-
isters (Direction, Data, TTL/CMOS Select, and Pull-Up
Enable) to configure each port pin as Hi-Z input or output,
to select TTL or CMOS voltage levels, and to enable/dis-
able the weak pull-up resistor. The upper four bits of the
registers associated with Port A are not used. The least
significant bit of the registers corresponds to the least
significant port pin. To access these registers, an appro-
priate value must be written into the MODE register.
Upon power-up, all bits in these registers are initialized to
“1”.
The associated registers allow for each port bit to be indi-
vidually configured under software control as shown
below:
Port B and Port C have additional associated registers
(Schmitt-Trigger Enable Registers ST_B and ST_C) to
enable or disable the Schmitt Trigger function on each
individual port pin as indicated in table below.
Port B also supports the on-chip differential comparator.
Ports RB1 and RB2 are the comparator negative and
positive inputs, respectively, while Port RB0 is the com-
parator output pin. Port B also supports the Multi-Input
Wakeup feature on all eight pins.
Figure3-1 shows the internal hardware structure and
configuration registers for each pin of Port A. Figure3-2
shows the same for each pin of Port B or Port C.

SX18AC / SX20AC / SX28AC
3.1Reading and Writing the Ports
The three ports are memory-mapped into the data mem-
ory address space. To the CPU, the three ports are avail-
able as the RA, RB, and RC file registers at data memory
addresses 05h, 06h, and 07h, respectively. Writing to a
port data register sets the voltage levels of the corre-
sponding port pins that have been configured to operate
as outputs. Reading from a register reads the voltage lev-
els of the corresponding port pins that have been config-
ured as inputs.
For example, suppose all four Port A pins are configured
as outputs and with RA0 and RA1 to be high, and RA2
and RA3 to be low:
The second “mov” instruction in this example writes the
Port A data register (RA), which controls the output levels
of the four Port A pins, RA0 through RA3. Because Port
A has only four I/O pins, only the four least significant bits
of this register are used. The four high-order register bits
are “don’t care” bits. Port B and Port C are both eight bits
wide, so the full widths of the RB and RC registers are
used.
When a write is performed to a bit position for a port that
has been configured as an input, a write to the port data
register still needs to be performed, but it has no immedi-
ate effect on the pin. If later that pin is configured to
operate as an output, it will reflect the value that has
been written to the data register.
When a read is performed from a bit position for a port,
the operation is actually reading the voltage level on the
pin itself, not necessarily the bit value stored in the port
data register. This is true whether the pin is configured to
operate as an input or an output. Therefore, with the pin
configured to operate as an input, the data register con-
tents have no effect on the value that you read. With the
pin configured to operate as an output, what is read gen-
erally matches what has been written to the register.

used on the same I/O port with a very high clock rate, the
“write” part of one instruction might not occur soon
enough before the “read” part of the very next instruction,
resulting in getting “old” data for the second instruction.
To ensure predictable results, avoid using two successive
read-modify-write instructions that access the same port
data register if the clock rate is high.
3.2Port Configuration
Each port pin offers the following configuration options:
data direction
input voltage levels (TTL or CMOS)
pullup type (pullup resistor or open collector)
Schmitt trigger input (for Port B and Port C only)
Port B offers the additional option to use the port pins for
the Multi-Input Wakeup/Interrupt function and/or the ana-
log comparator function.
Port configuration is preformed by writing to a set of con-
trol registers associated with the port. A special-purpose
instruction is used to write these control registers:
mov !RA,W (move W to Port A control register)
mov !RB,W (move W to Port B control register)
mov !RC,W (move W to Port C control register)
Each one of these instructions writes a port control regis-
ter for Port A, Port B, or Port C. There are multiple control
registers for each port. To specify which one you want to
access, you use another register called the MODE regis-
ter.
3.2.1 MODE Register
The MODE register controls access to the port configura-
tion registers. Because the MODE register is not mem-
ory-mapped, it is accessed by the following special-
purpose instructions:
mov M, #lit (move literal to MODE register)
mov M,W (move W to MODE register)
mov W,M (move MODE register to W)
The value contained in the MODE register determines
which port control register is accessed by the “mov !rx,W”
instruction as indicated in Table3-3. MODE register val-
ues not listed in the table are reserved for future expan-
sion and should not be used. Therefore, the MODE
register should always contain a value from 08h to 0Fh.
Upon power-up, the MODE register is initialized to 0Fh,
which enables access to the port direction registers.
After a value is written to the MODE register, that setting
remains in effect until it is changed by writing to the
MODE register again. For example, you can write the
value 0Eh to the MODE register just once, and then write
to each of the three pullup configuration registers using
the three “mov !rx,W” instructions.
The following code example shows how to program the
pullup control registers.
First the MODE register is loaded with 0Eh to select
access to the pullup control registers (PLP_A, PLP_B,
and PLP_C). Then the MOV !rx,W instructions are used
to specify which port pins are to be connected to the
internal pullup resistors. Setting a bit to 1 disconnects the
corresponding pullup resistor, and clearing a bit to 0 con-
nects the corresponding pullup resistor.
3.2.2 Port Configuration Registers
The port configuration registers that you control with the
MOV !rx,W instruction operate as described below.
RA, RB, and RC Data Direction Registers (MODE=0Fh)
Each register bit sets the data direction for one port pin.
Set the bit to 1 to make the pin operate as a high-imped-
ance input. Clear the bit to 0 to make the pin operate as
an output.
PLP_A, PLP_B, and PLP_C: Pullup Enable Registers
(MODE=0Eh)
Each register bit determines whether an internal pullup
resistor is connected to the pin. Set the bit to 1 to discon-
nect the pullup resistor or clear the bit to 0 to connect the
pullup resistor.

SX18AC / SX20AC / SX28AC
LVL_A, LVL_B, and LVL_C: Input Level Registers
(MODE=0Dh)
Each register bit determines the voltage levels sensed on
the input port, either TTL or CMOS, when the Schmitt
trigger option is disabled. Program each bit according to
the type of device that is driving the port input pin. Set the
bit to 1 for TTL or clear the bit to 0 for CMOS.
ST_B and ST_C: Schmitt Trigger Enable Registers
(MODE=0Ch)
Each register bit determines whether the port input pin
operates with a Schmitt trigger. Set the bit to 1 to disable
Schmitt trigger operation and sense either TTL or CMOS
voltage levels; or clear the bit to 0 to enable Schmitt trig-
ger operation.
WKEN_B: Wakeup Enable Register (MODE=0Bh)
Each register bit enables or disables the Multi-Input
Wakeup/Interrupt (MIWU) function for the corresponding
Port B input pin. Clear the bit to 0 to enable MIWU opera-
tion or set the bit to 1 to disable MIWU operation. For
more information on using the Multi-Input Wakeup/Inter-
rupt function, see Section 7.1.
WKED_B: Wakeup Edge Register (MODE=0Ah)
Each register bit selects the edge sensitivity of the Port B
input pin for MIWU operation. Set the bit to 1 to sense ris-
ing (low-to-high) edges. Clear the bit to 0 to sense falling
(high-to-low) edges.
WKPND_B: Wakeup Pending Flag Register
(MODE=09h)
When you access the WKPND_B register using MOV
!RB,W, the CPU does an exchange between the contents
of W and WKPND_B. This feature lets you read the
WKPND_B register contents. Each bit indicates the sta-
tus of the corresponding MIWU pin. A bit set to 1 indi-
cates that a valid edge has occurred on the
corresponding MIWU pin, triggering a wakeup or inter-
rupt. A bit set to 0 indicates that no valid edge has
occurred on the MIWU pin.
CMP_B: Comparator Register (MODE=08h)
When you access the CMP_B register using MOV
!RB,W, the CPU does an exchange between the contents
of W and CMP_B. This feature lets you read the CMP_B
register contents. Clear bit 7 to enable operation of the
comparator. Clear bit 6 to place the comparator result on
the RB0 pin. Bit 0 is a result flag that is set to 1 when the
voltage on RB2 is greater than RB1, or cleared to 0 oth-
erwise. (For more information using the comparator, see
Section 11.0.)
3.2.3 Port Configuration Upon Power-Up
Upon power-up, all the port control registers are initial-
ized to FFh. Thus, each pin is configured to operate as a
high-impedance input that senses TTL voltage levels,
with no internal pullup resistor connected. The MODE
register is initialized to 0Fh, which allows immediate
access to the data direction registers using the “MOV
!rx,W” instruction.

4.0SPECIAL-FUNCTION REGISTERS
The CPU uses a set of special-function registers to con-
trol the operation of the device.
The CPU registers include an 8-bit working register (W),
which serves as a pseudo accumulator. It holds the sec-
ond operand of an instruction, receives the literal in
immediate type instructions, and also can be program-
selected as the destination register.
A set of 31 file registers serves as the primary accumula-
tor. One of these registers holds the first operand of an
instruction and another can be program-selected as the
destination register. The first eight file registers include
the Real-Time Clock/Counter register (RTCC), the lower
eight bits of the 11-bit Program Counter (PC), the 8-bit
STATUS register, three port control registers for Port A,
Port B, Port C, and the 8-bit File Select Register (FSR).
The five low-order bits of the FSR register select one of
the 31 file registers in the indirect addressing mode. Call-
ing for the file register located at address 00h (INDF) in
any of the file-oriented instructions selects indirect
addressing, which uses the FSR register. It should be
noted that the file register at address 00h is not a physi-
cally implemented register. The CPU also contains an 8-
level, 11-bit hardware push/pop stack for subroutine link-
age.
*In the SX18 package, Port C is not used, and address
07h is available as a general-purpose RAM location.
4.1PC Register (02h)
The PC register holds the lower eight bits of the program
counter. It is accessible at run time to perform branch
operations.
4.2STATUS Register (03h)
The STATUS register holds the arithmetic status of the
ALU, the page select bits, and the reset state. The
STATUS register is accessible during run time, except
that bits PD and TO are read-only. It is recommended
that only SETB and CLRB instructions be used on this
register. Care should be exercised when writing to the
STATUS register as the ALU status bits are updated
upon completion of the write operation, possibly leaving
the STATUS register with a result that is different than
intended.

5.0DEVICE CONFIGURATION REGISTERS
The SX device has three registers (FUSE, FUSEX,
DEVICE) that control functions such as operating the
device in Turbo mode, extended (8-level deep) stack
operation, and speed selection for the internal RC oscilla-
tor. These registers are not programmable “on the fly”
during normal device operation. Instead, the FUSE and
FUSEX registers can only be accessed when the SX
device is being programmed. The DEVICE register is a
read-only, hard-wired register, programmed during the
manufacturing process.

SX18AC / SX20AC / SX28AC
6.0MEMORY ORGANIZATION
6.1Program Memory
The program memory is organized as 2K, 12-bit wide
words. The program memory words are addressed
sequentially by a binary program counter. The program
counter starts at zero. If there is no branch operation, it
will increment to the maximum value possible for the
device and roll over and begin again.
Internally, the program memory has a semi-transparent
page structure. A page is composed of 512 contiguous
program memory words. The lower nine bits of the pro-
gram counter are zeros at the first address of a page and
ones at the last address of a page. This page structure
has no effect on the program counter. The program
counter will freely increment through the page bound-
aries.
6.1.1 Program Counter
The program counter contains the 11-bit address of the
instruction to be executed. The lower eight bits of the pro-
gram counter are contained in the PC register (02h) while
the upper bits come from the upper three bits of the STA-
TUS register (PA0, PA1, PA2). This is necessary to cause
jumps and subroutine calls across program memory
page boundaries. Prior to the execution of a branch oper-
ation, the user program must initialize the upper bits of
the STATUS register to cause a branch to the desired
page. An alternative method is to use the PAGE instruc-
tion, which automatically causes branch to the desired
page, based on the value specified in the operand field.
Upon reset, the program counter is initialized with 07FFh.
6.1.2 Subroutine Stack
The subroutine stack consists of eight 11-bit save regis-
ters. A physical transfer of register contents from the pro-
gram counter to the stack or vice versa, and within the
stack, occurs on all operations affecting the stack, prima-
rily calls and returns. The stack is physically and logically
separate from data RAM. The program cannot read or
write the stack.
6.2Data Memory
The data memory consists of 136 bytes of RAM, orga-
nized as eight banks of 16 registers plus eight registers
which are not banked. Both banked and non-banked
memory locations can be addressed directly or indirectly
using the FSR (File Select Register). The special-func-
tion registers are mapped into the data memory.
6.2.1 File Select Register (04h)
Instructions that specify a register as the operand can
only express five bits of register address. This means
that only registers 00h to 1Fh can be accessed. The File
Select Register (FSR) provides the ability to access reg-
isters beyond 1Fh.
Figure6-1 shows how FSR can be used to address RAM
locations. The three high-order bits of FSR select one of
eight SRAM banks to be accessed. The five low-order
bits select one of 32 SRAM locations within the selected
bank. For the lower 16 addresses, Bank 0 is always
accessed, irrespective of the three high-order bits. Thus,
RAM register addresses 00h through 0Fh are “global” in
that they can always be accessed, regardless of the con-
tents of the FSR.
The entire data memory (including the dedicated-function
registers) consists of the lower 16 bytes of Bank 0 and
the upper 16 bytes of Bank 0 through Bank 7, for a total
of (1+8)*16 = 144 bytes. Eight of these bytes are for the
function registers, leaving 136 general-purpose memory
locations. In the 18-pin SX packages, register RC is not
used, which makes address 07h available as an addi-
tional general-purpose memory location.
Below is an example of how to write to register 10h in
Bank 4:
mov FSR,#$90 ;Select Bank 4 by
;setting FSR<7:5>
mov 10h,#$64 ;load register 10h with
;the literal 64h

7.0POWER DOWN MODE
The power down mode is entered through the execution
of the SLEEP instruction while the SLEEP mode is
enabled.
In SLEEP mode, only the Watchdog Timer (WDT) is
active. If the Watchdog Timer is enabled, upon execution
of the SLEEP instruction, the Watchdog Timer is cleared,
the TO bit is set in the STATUS register, and the PD bit is
cleared in the STATUS register.
There are three different ways to exit from the low power
sleep mode: a timer overflow signal from the Watchdog
Timer (WDT), a valid transition on any of the Multi-Input
Wakeup pins (Port B pins), or through an external reset
input on the MCLR pin.
To achieve the lowest possible power consumption, the
Watchdog Timer should be disabled and the device
should exit the SLEEP mode through the MIWU pins or
an external reset.
7.1Multi-Input Wakeup
Multi-Input Wakeup is one way of causing the device to
exit the power down mode. Port B is used to support this
feature. The WKEN_B register (Wakeup Enable Regis-
ter) allows any Port B pin or combination of pins to cause
the wakeup. Clearing a bit in the WKEN_B register
enables the wakeup on the corresponding Port B pin. If
multi-input wakeup is selected to cause a wakeup, the
trigger condition on the selected pin can be either rising
edge (low to high) or falling edge (high to low). The
WKED_B register (Wakeup Edge Select) selects the
desired transition edge. Setting a bit in the WKED_B reg-
ister selects the falling edge on the corresponding Port B.
Resetting the bit selects the rising edge. The WKEN_B
and WKED_B registers are set to FFh upon reset.
Once a valid transition occurs on the selected pin, the
WKPND_B register (Wakeup Pending Register) latches
the transition in the corresponding bit position. A logic ‘1’
indicates the occurrence of the selected trigger edge on
the corresponding Port B pin.
Upon exiting the power down mode, the Multi-Input
Wakeup logic causes program counter to branch to the
maximum program memory address (same as reset).
Figure7-1 shows the Multi-Input Wakeup block diagram.

7.2Port B MIWU/Interrupt Configuration
The WKPND_B register comes up with a random value
upon reset. The user program must clear the register
prior to enabling the wake-up condition or interrupts. The
proper initialization sequence is:
1. Clear the WKPND_B register
2. Select the desired edge (through WKED_B register)
3. Enable the Wakeup condition (through WKEN_B regis-
ter)
Below is an example how to read the WKPND_B register
to determine which Port B pin caused the wakeup or
interrupt, and to clear the WKPND_B register:
The final “mov” instruction in this example performs an
exchange of data between the working register (W) and
the WKPND_B register. This exchange occurs only with
Port B accesses. Otherwise, the “mov” instruction does
not perform an exchange, but only moves data from the
source to the destination.
Here is an example of a program segment that config-
ures the RB0, RB1, and RB2 pins to operate as Multi-
Input Wakeup/Interrupt pins, sensitive to falling edges:
To prevent false interrupts, the enabling step (clearing
bits in WKEN_B) should be done as the last step in a
sequence of Port B configuration steps.
After this program segment is executed, the device can
receive interrupts on the RB0, RB1, and RB2 pins. If the
device is put into the power down mode (by executing a
“sleep” instruction), the device can then receive wakeup
signals on those same pins.

8.0INTERRUPT SUPPORT
The device supports both internal and external maskable
interrupts. The internal interrupt is generated as a result
of the RTCC rolling over from 0FFh to 00h. This interrupt
source has an associated enable bit located in the
OPTION register. There is no pending flag associated
with this interrupt.
Port B provides the source for eight external software
selectable, edge sensitive interrupts, when the device is
not in the SLEEP mode. These interrupt sources share
logic with the Multi-Input Wakeup circuitry. The WKEN_B
register allows interrupt from Port B to be individually
enabled or disabled. Clearing a bit in the WKEN_B regis-
ter enables the interrupt on the corresponding Port B pin.
The WKED_B selects the transition edge to be either
positive or negative. The WKEN_B and WKED_B regis-
ters are cleared upon reset. Setting a bit in the WKED_B
register selects the falling edge while resetting the bit
selects the rising edge on the corresponding Port B pin.
The WKPND_B register serves as the external interrupt
pending register.
The WKPND_B register comes up a with random value
upon reset. The user program must clear the WKPND_B
register prior to enabling the interrupt. The proper
sequence is described in Section 7.2.
Figure8-1 shows the structure of the interrupt logic.
All interrupts are global in nature; that is, no interrupt has
priority over another. Interrupts are handled sequentially.
Figure8-2 shows the interrupt processing sequence.
Once an interrupt is acknowledged, all subsequent global
interrupts are disabled until return from servicing the cur-
rent interrupt. The PC is pushed onto the single level
interrupt stack, and the contents of the FSR, STATUS,
and W registers are saved in their corresponding shadow
registers. The interrupt logic has its own single-level
stack and is not part of the CALL subroutine stack. The
vector for the interrupt service routines is address 0.
Once in the interrupt service routine, the user program
must poll all external interrupt pending bits to determine
the source of the interrupt. The interrupt service routine
should clear the corresponding interrupt pending flag.
The user program may also need to read the contents of
RTCC to determine any recent RTCC rollover. This is
needed since there is no interrupt pending flag associ-
ated with the RTCC rollover.
Upon return from the interrupt service routine, the con-
tents of PC, FSR, STATUS, and W registers are restored
from their corresponding shadow registers. The interrupt
service routine should end with instructions such as RETI
and RETIW. RETI pops the interrupt stack and the spe-
cial shadow registers used for storing W, STATUS, and
FSR (preserved during interrupt handling). RETIW
behaves like RETI but also writes the literal to RTCC.
The interrupt return instruction enables the global inter-
rupts.

9.0OSCILLATOR CIRCUITS
The device supports several user-selectable oscillator
modes. The oscillator modes are selected by program-
ming the appropriate values into the FUSE Word register.
These are the different oscillator modes offered:
9.1XT, LP or HS modes
In XT, LP or HS, modes, you can use either an external
resonator network or an external clock signal as the
device clock.
To use an external resonator network, you connect a
crystal or ceramic resonator to the OSC1/CLKIN and
OSC2/CLKOUT pins according to the circuit configura-
tion shown in Figure9-1. Table9-1 shows the recom-
mended capacitor values to be used with ceramic
resonators. Table9-2 shows the recommended compo-
nent values to be used at different crystal frequencies. A
parallel resonant crystal type is recommended. Use of a
series resonant crystal may result in a frequency that is
outside the crystal manufacturer specifications.
If the XT, LP, or HS mode is selected, the OSC1/CLKIN
pin can driven by an external clock source rather than a
resonator network, as long as the clock signal meets the
specified duty cycle, rise and fall times, and input levels
(Figure9-2). In this case, the OSC2/CLKOUT pin should
be left open.
Note:Series resistor (RS) is not required for frequencies
higher than 1 MHz; use a direct connection instead.
LP: Low Power Crystal
XT: Crystal/Resonator
HS: High Speed Crystal/Resonator
RC: External Resistor/Capacitor

Note:Resistor Rf is not required for the Version 2.1 device
(both crystal and resonator circuits.)
9.2External RC Mode
The external RC oscillator mode provides a cost-effective
approach for applications that do not require a precise
operating frequency. In this mode, the RC oscillator fre-
quency is a function of the supply voltage, the resistor (R)
and capacitor (C) values, and the operating temperature.
In addition, the oscillator frequency will vary from unit to
unit due to normal manufacturing process variations. Fur-
thermore, the difference in lead frame capacitance
between package types also affects the oscillation fre-
quency, especially for low C values. The external R and
C component tolerances contribute to oscillator fre-
quency variation as well.
Figure9-3 shows the external RC connection diagram.
The recommended R value is from 3k to 100k. For R
values below 2.2k, the oscillator may become unstable,
or may stop completely. For very high R values (such as
1 M), the oscillator becomes sensitive to noise, humid-
ity, and leakage.
Although the oscillator will operate with no external
capacitor (C = 0pF), it is recommended that you use val-
ues above 20 pF for noise immunity and stability. With no
or small external capacitance, the oscillation frequency
can vary significantly due to variation in PCB trace or
package lead frame capacitances.
In the external RC mode, the OSC2/CLKOUT pin pro-
vides an output frequency, which the input frequency
divided by four.
9.3Internal RC Mode
The internal RC mode uses an internal oscillator, so the
device does not need any external components. At 4
MHz, the internal oscillator provides +/–8% accuracy
over the allowed temperature range. The internal clock
frequency can be divided down to provide one of eight
lower-frequency choices by selecting the desired value in
the FUSE Word register. The frequency range is from
31.25 KHz to 4 MHz.

10.0REAL TIME CLOCK
(RTCC)/WATCHDOG TIMER
The device contains an 8-bit Real Time Clock/Counter
(RTCC) and an 8-bit Watchdog Timer (WDT). An 8-bit
programmable prescaler extends the RTCC to 16 bits. If
the prescaler is not used for the RTCC, it can serve as a
postscaler for the Watchdog Timer. Figure10-1 shows
the RTCC and WDT block diagram.
10.1RTCC
RTCC is an 8-bit real-time timer that is incremented once
each instruction cycle or from a transition on the RTCC
pin. The on-board prescaler can be used to extend the
RTCC counter to 16 bits.
The RTCC counter can be clocked by the internal instruc-
tion cycle clock or by an external clock source presented
at the RTCC pin.
To select the internal clock source, bit 5 of the OPTION
register should be cleared. In this mode, RTCC is incre-
mented at each instruction cycle unless the prescaler is
selected to increment the counter.
To select the external clock source, bit 5 of the OPTION
register must be set. In this mode, the RTCC counter is
incremented with each valid signal transition at the RTTC
pin. By using bit 4 of the OPTION register, the transition
can be programmed to be either a falling edge or rising
edge. Setting the control bit selects the falling edge to
increment the counter. Resetting the bit selects the rising
edge.
The RTCC generates an interrupt as a result of an RTCC
rollover from 0FF to 000. There is no interrupt pending bit
to indicate the overflow occurrence. The RTCC register
must be sampled by the program to determine any over-
flow occurrence.
10.2Watchdog Timer
The watchdog logic consists of a Watchdog Timer which
shares the same 8-bit programmable prescaler with the
RTCC. The prescaler actually serves as a postscaler if
used in conjunction with the WDT, in contrast to its use as
a prescaler with the RTCC.
10.3The Prescaler
The 8-bit prescaler may be assigned to either the RTCC
or the WDT through the PSA bit (bit 3 of the OPTION reg-
ister). Setting the PSA bit assigns the prescaler to the
WDT. If assigned to the WDT, the WDT clocks the pres-
caler and the prescaler divide rate is selected by the
PS0, PS1, and PS2 bits located in the OPTION register.
Resetting the PSA bit assigns the prescaler to the RTCC.
Once assigned to the RTCC, the prescaler clocks the
RTCC and the divide rate is selected by the PS0, PS1,
and PS2 bits in the OPTION register. The prescaler is not
mapped into the data memory, so run-time access is not
possible.
The prescaler cannot be assigned to both the RTCC and
WDT simultaneously.

11.0COMPARATOR
The device contains an on-chip differential comparator.
Ports RB0-RB2 support the comparator. Ports RB1 and
RB2 are the comparator negative and positive inputs,
respectively, while Port RB0 serves as the comparator
output pin. To use these pins in conjunction with the com-
parator, the user program must configure Ports RB1 and
RB2 as inputs and Port RB0 as an output. The CMP_B
register is used to enable the comparator, to read the out-
put of the comparator internally, and to enable the output
of the comparator to the comparator output pin.
The comparator enable bits are set to “1” upon reset,
thus disabling the comparator. To avoid drawing addi-
tional current during the SLEEP mode, the comparator
should be disabled before entering the SLEEP mode.
Here is an example of how to setup the comparator and
read the CMP_B register.
The final “mov” instruction in this example performs an
exchange of data between the working register (W) and
the CMP_B register. This exchange occurs only with Port
B accesses. Otherwise, the “mov” instruction does not
perform an exchange, but only moves data from the
source to the destination.
The following figure shows the format of the CMP_B reg-
ister.

The result can be read whether or not the
CMP_OE bit is cleared.
CMP_OE When cleared to 0, enables the compar-
ator output to the RB0 pin.
CMP_EN When cleared to 0, enables the compar-
ator.

12.0RESET
Power-On-Reset, Brown-Out reset, watchdog reset, or
external reset initializes the device. Each one of these
reset conditions causes the program counter to branch to
the top of the program memory. For example, on the
device with 2K of program memory, the program counter
is initialized to 07FF.
The device incorporates an on-chip Power-On Reset
(POR) circuit that generates an internal reset as Vdd rises
during power-up. Figure12-1 is a block diagram of the
circuit. The circuit contains an 8-bit Delay Reset Timer
(DRT) and a reset latch. The DRT controls the reset time-
out delay. The reset latch controls the internal reset sig-
nal. Upon power-up, the reset latch is set (device held in
reset), and the DRT starts counting once it detects a valid
logic high signal at the MCLR pin. Once DRT reaches the
end of the timeout period (typically 72 msec), the reset
latch is cleared, releasing the device from reset state.
Figure12-2 shows a power-up sequence where MCLR is
not tied to the Vdd pin and Vdd signal is allowed to rise
and stabilize before MCLR pin is brought high. The
device will actually come out of reset Tdrt msec after
MCLR goes high.
The brown-out circuitry resets the chip when device
power (Vdd) dips below its minimum allowed value, but
not to zero, and then recovers to the normal value.
Figure12-3 shows the on-chip Power-On Reset
sequence where the MCLR and Vdd pins are tied
together. The Vdd signal is stable before the DRT time-
out period expires. In this case, the device will receive a
proper reset. However, Figure12-4 depicts a situation
where Vdd rises too slowly. In this scenario, the DRT will
time-out prior to Vdd reaching a valid operating voltage
level (Vdd min). This means the device will come out of
reset and start operating with the supply voltage not at a
valid level. In this situation, it is recommended that you
use the external RC circuit shown in Figure12-5. The RC
delay should exceed the time period it takes Vdd to reach
a valid operating voltage.
Note1:The external Power-On Reset circuit is required
only if Vdd power-up is too slow. The diode D helps dis-
charge the capacitor quickly when Vdd powers down.
Note2:R < 40 k is recommended to make sure that
voltage drop across R does not violate the device electri-
cal specifications.
Note3:R1 = 100 to 1k will limit any current flowing
into MCLR from external capacitor C. This helps prevent
MCLR pin breakdown due to Electrostatic Discharge
(ESD) or Electrical Overstress (EOS).
Note:Ripple counter is 10 bits for Power on Reset (POR)
only.

13.0BROWN-OUT DETECTOR
The on-chip brown-out detection circuitry resets the
device when Vdd dips below the specified brown-out volt-
age. The device is held in reset as long as Vdd stays
below the brown-out voltage. The device will come out of
reset when Vdd rises above the brown-out voltage. The
brown-out level is preset to approximately 4.2V at the
factory. The brown-out circuit can be disabled through
BOR0 and BOR1 bits contained in the FUSEX Word reg-
ister.

14.0REGISTER STATES UPON RESET
The effect of a reset operation on a register depends on
the register and the type of reset operation. Some regis-
ters are initialized to specific values, some are left
unchanged (for wakeup and brown-out resets), and some
are initialized to an unknown value. A register that starts
with an unknown value should be initialized by the soft-
ware to a known value; you cannot simply test the initial
state and rely on it starting in that state consistently.
Table14-1 lists the SX registers and shows the state of
each register upon different reset.

15.0INSTRUCTION SET
As mentioned earlier, the SX family of devices uses a
modified Harvard architecture with memory-mapped
input/output. The device also has a RISC type architec-
ture in that there are 43 single-word basic instructions.
The instruction set contains byte-oriented file register, bit-
oriented file register, and literal/control instructions.
Working register W is one of the CPU registers, which
serves as a pseudo accumulator. It is a pseudo accumu-
lator in a sense that it holds the second operand,
receives the literal in the immediate type instructions, and
also can be program-selected as the destination register.
The bank of 31 file registers can also serve as the pri-
mary accumulators, but they represent the first operand
and may be program-selected as the destination regis-
ters.
15.1Instruction Set Features
1. All single-word (12-bit) instructions for compact code
efficiency.
2. All instructions are single cycle except the jump type in-
structions (JMP, CALL) and failed test instructions
(DECSZ fr, INCSZ fr, SB bit, SNB bit), which are two-
cycle.
3. A set of File registers can be addressed directly or indi-
rectly, and serve as accumulators to provide first oper-
and; W register provides the second operand.
4. Many instructions include a destination bit which se-
lects either the register file or the accumulator as the
destination for the result.
5. Bit manipulation instructions (Set, Clear, Test and Skip
if Set, Test and Skip if Clear).
6. STATUS Word register memory-mapped as a register
file, allowing testing of status bits (carry, digit carry, ze-
ro, power down, and timeout).
7. Program Counter (PC) memory-mapped as register file
allows W to be used as offset register for indirect ad-
dressing of program memory.
8. Indirect addressing data pointer FSR (file select regis-
ter) memory-mapped as a register file.
9. IREAD instruction allows reading the instruction from
the program memory addressed by W and upper four
bits of MODE register.
10.Eight-level, 11-bit push/pop hardware stack for sub-
routine linkage using the Call and Return instructions.
11.Six addressing modes provide great flexibility.
15.2Instruction Execution
An instruction goes through a four-stage pipeline to be
executed (Figure15-1). The first instruction is fetched
from the program memory on the first clock cycle. On the
second clock cycle, the first instruction is decoded and
the second instruction is fetched. On the third clock cycle,
the first instruction is executed, the second instruction is
decoded, and the third instruction is fetched. On the
fourth clock cycle, the first instruction’s results are written
to its destination, the second instruction is executed, the
third instruction is decoded, and the fourth instruction is
fetched. Once the pipeline is full, instructions are exe-
cuted at the rate of one per clock cycle.
Instructions that directly affect the contents of the pro-
gram counter (such as jumps and calls) require that the
pipeline be cleared and subsequently refilled. Therefore,
these instruction take more than one clock cycle.
The instruction execution time is derived by dividing the
oscillator frequency by either one (turbo mode) or four
(non-turbo mode). The divide-by factor is selected
through the FUSE Word register.
15.3Addressing Modes
The device support the following addressing modes:
Data Direct
Data Indirect
Immediate
Program Direct
Program Indirect
Relative
Both direct and indirect addressing modes are available.
The INDF register, though physically not implemented, is
used in conjunction with the indirect data pointer (FSR) to
perform indirect addressing. An instruction using INDF as
its operand field actually performs the operation on the
register pointed by the contents of the FSR. Conse-
quently, processing two multiple-byte operands requires
alternate loading of the operand addresses into the FSR
pointer as the multiple byte data fields are processed.
Examples:
Direct addressing:

15.4RAM Addressing
Direct Addressing
The FSR register must initialized with an appropriate
value in order to address the desired RAM register. The
following table and code example show how to directly
access the banked registers.
Indirect Addressing
To access any register via indirect addressing, simply
move the eight-bit address of the desired register into the
FSR and use INDF as the operand. The example below
shows how to clear all RAM locations from 10h to 1Fh in
all eight banks:
15.5The Bank Instruction
Often it is desirable to set the bank select bits of the FSR
register in one instruction cycle. The Bank instruction
provides this capability. This instruction sets the upper
bits of the FSR to point to a specific RAM bank without
affecting the other FSR bits.
Example:
15.6Bit Manipulation
The instruction set contains instructions to set, reset, and
test individual bits in data memory. The device is capable
of bit addressing anywhere in data memory.
15.7Input/Output Operation
The device contains three registers associated with each
I/O port. The first register (Data Direction Register), con-
figures each port pin as a Hi-Z input or output. The sec-
ond register (TTL/CMOS Register), selects the desired
input level for the input. The third register (Pull-Up Regis-
ter), enables a weak pull-up resistor on the pin configured
as a input. In addition to using the associated port regis-
ters, appropriate values must be written into the MODE
register to configure the I/O ports.
15.7.1 Read-Modify-Write Considerations
Caution must be exercised when performing successive
SETB or CLRB operations on I/O port pin. Input data
used for an instruction must be valid during the time the
instruction is executed, and the output result from an
instruction is valid only after that instruction completes its
operation. Unexpected results from successive read-
modify-write operations on I/O pins can occur when the
device is running at extremely high speeds. Although the
device has an internal write-back section to prevent such
conditions, it is still recommended that the user program
include a NOP instruction as a buffer between succes-
sive read-modify-write instructions performed on I/O pins
of the same port.
Also note that reading an I/O port is actually reading the
pins, not the output data latches. That is, if the pin output
driver is enabled and driven high while the pin is held low
externally, the port pin will read low.
15.8Increment/Decrement
The bank of 31 registers serves as a set of accumulators.
The instruction set contains instructions to increment and
decrement the register file. The device also includes both
INCSZ fr (increment file register and skip if zero) and
DECSZ fr (decrement file register and skip if zero)
instructions.
15.9Loop Counting and Data Pointing
Testing
The device has specific instructions to facilitate loop
counting. The DECSZ fr (decrement file register and skip
if zero) tests any one of the file registers and skips the
next instruction (which can be a branch back to loop) if
the result is zero.
15.10Branch and Loop Call Instructions
The device contains an 8-level hardware stack where the
return address is stored with a subroutine call. Multiple
stack levels allow subroutine nesting. The instruction set
supports absolute address branching.
15.10.1 Jump Operation
When a JMP instruction is executed, the lower nine bits
of the program counter is loaded with the address of the
specified label. The upper two bits of the program
counter are loaded with the page select bits, PA1:PA0,
contained in the STATUS register. Therefore, care must
be exercised to ensure the page select bits are pointing
to the correct page before the jump occurs.

15.10.2 Page Jump Operation
When a JMP instruction is executed and the intended
destination is on a different page, the page select bits
must be initialized with appropriate values to point to the
desired page before the jump occurs. This can be done
easily with SETB and CLRB instructions or by writing a
value to the STATUS register. The device also has the
PAGE instruction, which automatically selects the page in
a single-cycle execution.
Note:“N” must be 0, 1, 2, or 3.
15.10.3 Call Operation
The following happens when a CALL instruction is exe-
cuted:
The current value of the program counter is increment-
ed and pushed onto the top of the stack.
The lower eight bits of the label address are copied into
the lower eight bits of the program counter.
The ninth bit of the Program Counter is cleared to zero.
The page select bits (in STATUS register) are copied
into the upper two bits of the Program Counter.
This means that the call destination must start in the
lower half of any page. For example, 00h-0FFh, 200h-
2FFh, 400h-4FFh, etc.
15.10.4 Page Call Operation
When a subroutine that resides on a different page is
called, the page select bits must contain the proper val-
ues to point to the desired page before the call instruction
is executed. This can be done easily using SETB and
CLRB instructions or writing a value to the STATUS reg-
ister. The device also has the PAGE instruction, which
automatically selects the page in a single-cycle execu-
tion.
Note:“N” must be 0, 1, 2, or 3.
15.11Return Instructions
The device has several instructions for returning from
subroutines and interrupt service routines. The return
from subroutine instructions are RET (return without
affecting W), RETP (same as RET but affects PA1:PA0),
RETI (return from interrupt), RETIW (return that affects
W), and RETW #literal (return and place literal in W). The
literal serves as an immediate data value from memory.
This instruction can be used for table lookup operations.
To do table lookup, the table must contain a string of
RETW #literal instructions. The first instruction just in
front of the table calculates the offset into the table. The
table can be used as a result of a CALL.
15.12Subroutine Operation
15.12.1 Push Operation
When a subroutine is called, the return address is
pushed onto the subroutine stack. Specifically, each
address in the stack is moved to the next lower level in
order to make room for the new address to be stored.
Stack 1 receives the contents of the program counter.
Stack 8 is overwritten with what was in Stack 7. The con-
tents of stack 8 are lost.

15.12.2 Pop Operation
When a return instruction is executed the subroutine
stack is popped. Specifically, the contents of Stack 1 are
copied into the program counter and the contents of each
stack level are moved to the next higher level. For exam-
ple, Stack 1 receives the contents of Stack 2, etc., until
Stack 7 is overwritten with the contents of Stack 8. Stack
8 is left unchanged, so the contents of Stack 8 are dupli-
cated in Stack 7.
15.13Comparison and Conditional Branch
Instructions
The instruction set includes instructions such as DECSZ
fr (decrement file register and skip if zero), INCSZ fr
(increment file register and skip if zero), SNB bit (bit test
file register and skip if bit clear), and SB bit (bit test file
register and skip if bit set). These instructions will cause
the next instruction to be skipped if the tested condition is
true.
15.14Logical Instruction
The instruction set contain a full complement of the logi-
cal instructions (AND, OR, Exclusive OR), with the W
register and a selected memory location (using either
direct or indirect addressing) serving as the two oper-
ands.
15.15Shift and Rotate Instructions
The instruction set includes instructions for left or right
rotate-through-carry.
15.16Complement and SWAP
The device can perform one’s complement operation on
the file register (fr) and W register. The MOV W,<>fr
instruction performs nibble-swap on the fr and puts the
value into the W register.

16.0INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY TABLE
Table16-1 list all of the instructions, organized by cate-
gory. For each instruction, the table shows the instruction
mnemonic (as written in assembly language), a brief
description of what the instruction does, the number of
instruction cycles required for execution, the binary
opcode, and the status flags affected by the instruction.
The “Cycles” column typically shows a value of 1, which
means that the overall throughput for the instruction is
one per clock cycle. In some cases, the exact number of
cycles depends on the outcome of the instruction (such
as the test-and-skip instructions) or the clocking mode
(Compatible or Turbo). In those cases, all possible num-
bers of cycles are shown in the table.
The instruction execution time is derived by dividing the
oscillator frequency by either one (Turbo mode) or four
(Compatible mode). The divide-by factor is selected
through the FUSE Word register.

16.1Equivalent Assembler Mnemonics
Some assemblers support additional instruction mne-
monics that are special cases of existing instructions or
alternative mnemonics for standard ones. For example,
an assembler might support the mnemonic “CLC” (clear
carry), which is interpreted the same as the instruction
“clrb $03.0” (clear bit 3 in the STATUS register). Some of
the commonly supported equivalent assembler mnemon-
ics are described in
Table16-2. Equivalent Assembler Mnemonics

CLZ Clear Zero Flag CLRB $03.2 1

SC Skip if Carry Flag Set SB $03.0 1 or 2 (note 2)
SKIP Skip Next Instruction SNB $02.0 or SB $02.0 4 or 2 (note 3)
Note1:The JMP W or JMP PC+W instruction takes 4 cycles in the “compatible” clocking mode or 3 cycles in the
“turbo” clocking mode.
Note2:The SC instruction takes 1 cycle if the tested condition is false or 2 cycles if the tested condition is true.
Note3:The assembler converts the SKIP instruction into a SNB or SB instruction that tests the least significant bit
of the program counter, choosing SNB or SB so that the tested condition is always true. The instruction takes 4 cycles
in the “compatible” clocking mode or 2 cycles in the “turbo” clocking mode.
