Description
AT89C51RD2/ED2 is high performance CMOS Flash version of the 80C51 CMOS sin-
gle chip 8-bit microcontroller. It contains a 64-Kbyte Flash memory block for code and
for data.
The 64-Kbytes Flash memory can be programmed either in parallel mode or in serial
mode with the ISP capability or with software. The programming voltage is internally
generated from the standard VCC pin.

The AT89C51RD2/ED2 retains all of the features of the Atmel 80C52 with 256 bytes of
internal RAM, a 9-source 4-level interrupt controller and three timer/counters. The
AT89C51ED2 provides 2048 bytes of EEPROM for nonvolatile data storage.
In addition, the AT89C51RD2/ED2 has a Programmable Counter Array, an XRAM of
1792 bytes, a Hardware Watchdog Timer, SPI interface, Keyboard, a more versatile
serial channel that facilitates multiprocessor communication (EUART) and a speed
improvement mechanism (X2 Mode).
The fully static design of the AT89C51RD2/ED2 allows to reduce system power con-
sumption by bringing the clock frequency down to any value, including DC, without loss
of data.
The AT89C51RD2/ED2 has 2 software-selectable modes of reduced activity and an 8-
bit clock prescaler for further reduction in power consumption. In the Idle mode the CPU
is frozen while the peripherals and the interrupt system are still operating. In the Power-
down mode the RAM is saved and all other functions are inoperative.
The added features of the AT89C51RD2/ED2 make it more powerful for applications
that need pulse width modulation, high speed I/O and counting capabilities such as
alarms, motor control, corded phones, and smart card readers.

I/O
Port 0: Port 0 is an open-drain, bidirectional I/O port. Port 0 pins that
have 1s written to them float and can be used as high impedance inputs.
Port 0 must be polarized to VCC or VSS in order to prevent any parasitic
current consumption. Port 0 is also the multiplexed low-order address
and data bus during access to external program and data memory. In this
application, it uses strong internal pull-up when emitting 1s. Port 0 also
inputs the code bytes during EPROM programming. External pull-ups are
required during program verification during which P0 outputs the code
bytes.

and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 1 pins that are externally
pulled low will source current because of the internal pull-ups. Port 1 also

Reset: A high on this pin for two machine cycles while the oscillator is
running, resets the device. An internal diffused resistor to VSS permits a
power-on reset using only an external capacitor to VCC. This pin is an out-

Port Types AT89C51RD2/ED2 I/O ports (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5) implement the quasi-bidirectional out-
put that is common on the 80C51 and most of its derivatives. This output type can be
used as both an input and output without the need to reconfigure the port. This is possi-
ble because when the port outputs a logic high, it is weakly driven, allowing an external
device to pull the pin low. When the pin is pulled low, it is driven strongly and able to sink
a fairly large current. These features are somewhat similar to an open drain output
except that there are three pull-up transistors in the quasi-bidirectional output that serve
different purposes. One of these pull-ups, called the "weak" pull-up, is turned on when-
ever the port latch for the pin contains a logic 1. The weak pull-up sources a very small
current that will pull the pin high if it is left floating. A second pull-up, called the "medium"
pull-up, is turned on when the port latch for the pin contains a logic 1 and the pin itself is
also at a logic 1 level. This pull-up provides the primary source current for a quasi-bidi-
rectional pin that is outputting a 1. If a pin that has a logic 1 on it is pulled low by an
external device, the medium pull-up turns off, and only the weak pull-up remains on. In
order to pull the pin low under these conditions, the external device has to sink enough
current to overpower the medium pull-up and take the voltage on the port pin below its
input threshold.
The third pull-up is referred to as the "strong" pull-up. This pull-up is used to speed up
low-to-high transitions on a quasi-bidirectional port pin when the port latch changes from
a logic 0 to a logic 1. When this occurs, the strong pull-up turns on for a brief time, two
CPU clocks, in order to pull the port pin high quickly. Then it turns off again.
The DPU bit (bit 7 in AUXR register) allows to disable the permanent weak pull up of all
ports when latch data is logical 0.
The quasi-bidirectional port configuration is shown in Figure 3.

CKRL = FFh: FCLK CPU = FCLK PERIPH = FOSC/2 (Standard C51 feature)
Any value between FFh down to 00h can be written by software into CKRL register
in order to divide frequency of the selected oscillator:
CKRL = 00h: minimum frequency
FCLK CPU = FCLK PERIPH = FOSC/1020 (Standard Mode)
FCLK CPU = FCLK PERIPH = FOSC/510 (X2 Mode)

tures, which are:
• X2 option
Dual Data Pointer
Extended RAM
Programmable Counter Array (PCA)
Hardware Watchdog
SPI interface
4-level interrupt priority system

Some enhanced features are also located in the UART and the Timer 2
X2 Feature The AT89C51RD2/ED2 core needs only 6 clock periods per machine cycle. This feature
called ‘X2’ provides the following advantages:
Divide frequency crystals by 2 (cheaper crystals) while keeping same CPU power.
Save power consumption while keeping same CPU power (oscillator power saving).
Save power consumption by dividing dynamically the operating frequency by 2 in
operating and idle modes.
Increase CPU power by 2 while keeping same crystal frequency.
In order to keep the original C51 compatibility, a divider by 2 is inserted between the
XTAL1 signal and the main clock input of the core (phase generator). This divider may
be disabled by software.
Description The clock for the whole circuit and peripherals is first divided by two before being used
by the CPU core and the peripherals.
This allows any cyclic ratio to be accepted on XTAL1 input. In X2 mode, as this divider is
bypassed, the signals on XTAL1 must have a cyclic ratio between 40 to 60%.
Figure 5 shows the clock generation block diagram. X2 bit is validated on the rising edge
of the XTAL1 ÷ 2 to avoid glitches when switching from X2 to STD mode. Figure 6
shows the switching mode waveforms.

Dual Data Pointer
Register (DPTR)
The additional data pointer can be used to speed up code execution and reduce code

The dual DPTR structure is a way by which the chip will specify the address of an exter-
nal data memory location. There are two 16-bit DPTR registers that address the external
memory, and a single bit called DPS = AUXR1.0 (see Table 18) that allows the program
code to switch between them (Refer to Figure 7).

INC is a short (2 bytes) and fast (12 clocks) way to manipulate the DPS bit in the AUXR1
SFR. However, note that the INC instruction does not directly force the DPS bit to a par-
ticular state, but simply toggles it. In simple routines, such as the block move example,
only the fact that DPS is toggled in the proper sequence matters, not its actual value. In
other words, the block move routine works the same whether DPS is '0' or '1' on entry.
Observe that without the last instruction (INC AUXR1), the routine will exit with DPS in
the opposite state.

Expanded RAM
(XRAM)
The AT89C51RD2/ED2 provides additional on-chip random access memory (RAM)
space for increased data parameter handling and high level language usage.
AT89C51RD2/ED2 device haS expanded RAM in external data space configurable up
to 1792 bytes (see Table 19).
The AT89C51RD2/ED2 internal data memory is mapped into four separate segments.
The four segments are:
1. The Lower 128 bytes of RAM (addresses 00h to 7Fh) are directly and indirectly
addressable.
2. The Upper 128 bytes of RAM (addresses 80h to FFh) are indirectly addressable
only.
3. The Special Function Registers, SFRs, (addresses 80h to FFh) are directly
addressable only.
4. The expanded RAM bytes are indirectly accessed by MOVX instructions, and
with the EXTRAM bit cleared in the AUXR register (see Table 19).
The lower 128 bytes can be accessed by either direct or indirect addressing. The Upper
128 bytes can be accessed by indirect addressing only. The Upper 128 bytes occupy
the same address space as the SFR. That means they have the same address, but are
physically separate from SFR space.
Figure 8. Internal and External Data Memory Address
When an instruction accesses an internal location above address 7Fh, the CPU knows
whether the access is to the upper 128 bytes of data RAM or to SFR space by the
addressing mode used in the instruction.
Instructions that use direct addressing access SFR space. For example: MOV
0A0H, # data, accesses the SFR at location 0A0h (which is P2).
Instructions that use indirect addressing access the Upper 128 bytes of data RAM.
For example: MOV @R0, # data where R0 contains 0A0h, accesses the data byte
at address 0A0h, rather than P2 (whose address is 0A0h).
The XRAM bytes can be accessed by indirect addressing, with EXTRAM bit cleared
and MOVX instructions. This part of memory which is physically located on-chip,
logically occupies the first bytes of external data memory. The bits XRS0 and XRS1
are used to hide a part of the available XRAM as explained in Table 19. This can be

useful if external peripherals are mapped at addresses already used by the internal
XRAM.
With EXTRAM = 0, the XRAM is indirectly addressed, using the MOVX instruction in
combination with any of the registers R0, R1 of the selected bank or DPTR. An
access to XRAM will not affect ports P0, P2, P3.6 (WR) and P3.7 (RD). For
example, with EXTRAM = 0, MOVX @R0, # data where R0 contains 0A0H,
accesses the XRAM at address 0A0H rather than external memory. An access to
external data memory locations higher than the accessible size of the XRAM will be
performed with the MOVX DPTR instructions in the same way as in the standard
80C51, with P0 and P2 as data/address busses, and P3.6 and P3.7 as write and
read timing signals. Accesses to XRAM above 0FFH can only be done by the use of
DPTR.
With EXTRAM = 1, MOVX @Ri and MOVX @DPTR will be similar to the standard
80C51.MOVX @ Ri will provide an eight-bit address multiplexed with data on Port0
and any output port pins can be used to output higher order address bits. This is to
provide the external paging capability. MOVX @DPTR will generate a sixteen-bit
address. Port2 outputs the high-order eight address bits (the contents of DPH) while
Port0 multiplexes the low-order eight address bits (DPL) with data. MOVX @ Ri and
MOVX @DPTR will generate either read or write signals on P3.6 (WR) and P3.7
(RD).
The stack pointer (SP) may be located anywhere in the 256 bytes RAM (lower and
upper RAM) internal data memory. The stack may not be located in the XRAM.
The M0 bit allows to stretch the XRAM timings; if M0 is set, the read and write pulses
are extended from 6 to 30 clock periods. This is useful to access external slow
peripherals.

Reset
Introduction The reset sources are: Power Management, Hardware Watchdog, PCA Watchdog and
Reset input.
Figure 9. Reset schematic
Reset Input The Reset input can be used to force a reset pulse longer than the internal reset con-
trolled by the Power Monitor. RST input has a pull-down resistor allowing power-on
reset by simply connecting an external capacitor to VCC as shown in Figure 10. Resistor
value and input characteristics are discussed in the Section “DC Characteristics” of the
AT89C51RD2/ED2 datasheet.

As detailed in Section “Hardware Watchdog Timer”, page 86, the WDT generates a 96-
clock period pulse on the RST pin. In order to properly propagate this pulse to the rest of
the application in case of external capacitor or power-supply supervisor circuit, a 1 k
resistor must be added as shown Figure 11.

Power Monitor The POR/PFD function monitors the internal power-supply of the CPU core memories
and the peripherals, and if needed, suspends their activity when the internal power sup-
ply falls below a safety threshold. This is achieved by applying an internal reset to them.
By generating the Reset the Power Monitor insures a correct start up when
AT89C51RD2/ED2 is powered up.
Description In order to startup and maintain the microcontroller in correct operating mode, VCC has
to be stabilized in the VCC operating range and the oscillator has to be stabilized with a
nominal amplitude compatible with logic level VIH/VIL.
These parameters are controlled during the three phases: power-up, normal operation
and power going down. See Figure 12.
Figure 12. Power Monitor Block Diagram
Note: 1. Once XTAL1 High and low levels reach above and below VIH/VIL. a 1024 clock
period delay will extend the reset coming from the Power Fail Detect. If the power
falls below the Power Fail Detect threshold level, the Reset will be applied
immediately.
The Voltage regulator generates a regulated internal supply for the CPU core the mem-
ories and the peripherals. Spikes on the external Vcc are smoothed by the voltage
regulator.

below.
Figure 13. Power Fail Detect
When the power is applied, the Power Monitor immediately asserts a reset. Once the
internal supply after the voltage regulator reach a safety level, the power monitor then
looks at the XTAL clock input. The internal reset will remain asserted until the Xtal1 lev-
els are above and below VIH and VIL. Further more. An internal counter will count 1024
clock periods before the reset is de-asserted.
If the internal power supply falls below a safety level, a reset is immediately asserted.

Timer 2 The Timer 2 in the AT89C51RD2/ED2 is the standard C52 Timer 2. It is a 16-bit
timer/counter: the count is maintained by two eight-bit timer registers, TH2 and TL2 are
cascaded. It is controlled by T2CON (Table 20) and T2MOD (Table 21) registers. Timer
2 operation is similar to Timer 0 and Timer 1. C/T2 selects FOSC/12 (timer operation) or
external pin T2 (counter operation) as the timer clock input. Setting TR2 allows TL2 to
increment by the selected input.
Timer 2 has 3 operating modes: capture, autoreload and Baud Rate Generator. These
modes are selected by the combination of RCLK, TCLK and CP/RL2 (T2CON).
Refer to the Atmel 8-bit Microcontroller Hardware Manual for the description of Capture
and Baud Rate Generator Modes.
Timer 2 includes the following enhancements:
Auto-reload mode with up or down counter
Programmable clock-output
Auto-reload Mode The auto-reload mode configures Timer 2 as a 16-bit timer or event counter with auto-
matic reload. If DCEN bit in T2MOD is cleared, Timer 2 behaves as in 80C52 (refer to
the Atmel C51 Microcontroller Hardware Manual). If DCEN bit is set, Timer 2 acts as an
Up/down timer/counter as shown in Figure 14. In this mode the T2EX pin controls the
direction of count.
When T2EX is high, Timer 2 counts up. Timer overflow occurs at FFFFh which sets the
TF2 flag and generates an interrupt request. The overflow also causes the 16-bit value
in RCAP2H and RCAP2L registers to be loaded into the timer registers TH2 and TL2.
When T2EX is low, Timer 2 counts down. Timer underflow occurs when the count in the
timer registers TH2 and TL2 equals the value stored in RCAP2H and RCAP2L registers.
The underflow sets TF2 flag and reloads FFFFh into the timer registers.
The EXF2 bit toggles when Timer 2 overflows or underflows according to the direction of
the count. EXF2 does not generate any interrupt. This bit can be used to provide 17-bit
resolution.

4235F–8051–09/04
Figure 14. Auto-reload Mode Up/Down Counter (DCEN = 1)
Programmable
Clock-output
In the clock-out mode, Timer 2 operates as a 50% duty-cycle, programmable clock gen-
erator (See Figure 15). The input clock increments TL2 at frequency FCLK PERIPH/2. The
timer repeatedly counts to overflow from a loaded value. At overflow, the contents of
RCAP2H and RCAP2L registers are loaded into TH2 and TL2. In this mode, Timer 2
overflows do not generate interrupts. The formula gives the clock-out frequency as a
function of the system oscillator frequency and the value in the RCAP2H and RCAP2L
registers:
For a 16 MHz system clock, Timer 2 has a programmable frequency range of 61 Hz
(FCLK PERIPH/216) to 4 MHz (FCLK PERIPH/4). The generated clock signal is brought out to
T2 pin (P1.0).
Timer 2 is programmed for the clock-out mode as follows:
Set T2OE bit in T2MOD register.
Clear C/T2 bit in T2CON register.
Determine the 16-bit reload value from the formula and enter it in RCAP2H/RCAP2L
registers.
Enter a 16-bit initial value in timer registers TH2/TL2. It can be the same as the
reload value or a different one depending on the application.
To start the timer, set TR2 run control bit in T2CON register.
It is possible to use Timer 2 as a baud rate generator and a clock generator simulta-
neously. For this configuration, the baud rates and clock frequencies are not
independent since both functions use the values in the RCAP2H and RCAP2L registers.

Programmable
Counter Array (PCA)
The PCA provides more timing capabilities with less CPU intervention than the standard
timer/counters. Its advantages include reduced software overhead and improved accu-
racy. The PCA consists of a dedicated timer/counter which serves as the time base for
an array of five compare/capture modules. Its clock input can be programmed to count
any one of the following signals:
Peripheral clock frequency (FCLK PERIPH) ÷ 6
Peripheral clock frequency (FCLK PERIPH) ÷ 2
Timer 0 overflow
External input on ECI (P1.2)
Each compare/capture module can be programmed in any one of the following modes:
Rising and/or falling edge capture
Software timer
High-speed output
Pulse width modulator
Module 4 can also be programmed as a watchdog timer (see Section "PCA Watchdog
Timer", page 47).
When the compare/capture modules are programmed in the capture mode, software
timer, or high speed output mode, an interrupt can be generated when the module exe-
cutes its function. All five modules plus the PCA timer overflow share one interrupt
vector.
The PCA timer/counter and compare/capture modules share Port 1 for external I/O.
These pins are listed below. If one or several bits in the port are not used for the PCA,
they can still be used for standard I/O.
The PCA timer is a common time base for all five modules (see Figure 16). The timer
count source is determined from the CPS1 and CPS0 bits in the CMOD register
(Table 22) and can be programmed to run at:
1/6 the peripheral clock frequency (FCLK PERIPH)
1/2 the peripheral clock frequency (FCLK PERIPH)

16-bit Software Timer
16-bit High Speed Output

In addition, Module 4 can be used as a Watchdog Timer.
Each module in the PCA has a special function register associated with it. These regis-
ters are: CCAPM0 for Module 0, CCAPM1 for Module 1, etc. (See Table 24). The
registers contain the bits that control the mode that each module will operate in.
The ECCF bit (CCAPMn.0 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 depending on the module)
enables the CCF flag in the CCON SFR to generate an interrupt when a match or
compare occurs in the associated module.
PWM (CCAPMn.1) enables the pulse width modulation mode.
The TOG bit (CCAPMn.2) when set causes the CEX output associated with the
module to toggle when there is a match between the PCA counter and the modules
capture/compare register.
The match bit MAT (CCAPMn.3) when set will cause the CCFn bit in the CCON
register to be set when there is a match between the PCA counter and the modules
capture/compare register.
The next two bits CAPN (CCAPMn.4) and CAPP (CCAPMn.5) determine the edge
that a capture input will be active on. The CAPN bit enables the negative edge, and
the CAPP bit enables the positive edge. If both bits are set both edges will be
enabled and a capture will occur for either transition.
The last bit in the register ECOM (CCAPMn.6) when set enables the comparator
function.

Table 25. PCA Module Modes (CCAPMn Registers)
There are two additional registers associated with each of the PCA modules. They are
CCAPnH and CCAPnL and these are the registers that store the 16-bit count when a
capture occurs or a compare should occur. When a module is used in the PWM mode
these registers are used to control the duty cycle of the output (See Table 26 &
Table 27).

PCA Capture Mode To use one of the PCA modules in the capture mode either one or both of the CCAPM
bits CAPN and CAPP for that module must be set. The external CEX input for the mod-
ule (on port 1) is sampled for a transition. When a valid transition occurs the PCA
hardware loads the value of the PCA counter registers (CH and CL) into the module's
capture registers (CCAPnL and CCAPnH). If the CCFn bit for the module in the CCON
SFR and the ECCFn bit in the CCAPMn SFR are set then an interrupt will be generated
(Refer to Figure 18).
Figure 18. PCA Capture Mode
16-bit Software Timer/
Compare Mode
The PCA modules can be used as software timers by setting both the ECOM and MAT
bits in the modules CCAPMn register. The PCA timer will be compared to the module's
capture registers and when a match occurs an interrupt will occur if the CCFn (CCON
SFR) and the ECCFn (CCAPMn SFR) bits for the module are both set (See Figure 19).

Figure 19. PCA Compare Mode and PCA Watchdog Timer
Before enabling ECOM bit, CCAPnL and CCAPnH should be set with a non zero value,
otherwise an unwanted match could happen. Writing to CCAPnH will set the ECOM bit.
Once ECOM is set, writing CCAPnL will clear ECOM so that an unwanted match doesn’t
occur while modifying the compare value. Writing to CCAPnH will set ECOM. For this
reason, user software should write CCAPnL first, and then CCAPnH. Of course, the
ECOM bit can still be controlled by accessing to CCAPMn register.
High Speed Output Mode In this mode the CEX output (on port 1) associated with the PCA module will toggle
each time a match occurs between the PCA counter and the modules capture registers.
To activate this mode the TOG, MAT, and ECOM bits in the module's CCAPMn SFR
must be set (See Figure 20).
A prior write must be done to CCAPnL and CCAPnH before writing the ECOMn bit.

Pulse Width Modulator
Mode
All of the PCA modules can be used as PWM outputs. Figure 21 shows the PWM func-
tion. The frequency of the output depends on the source for the PCA timer. All of the
modules will have the same frequency of output because they all share the PCA timer.
The duty cycle of each module is independently variable using the modules capture reg-
ister CCAPLn. When the value of the PCA CL SFR is less than the value in the modules
CCAPLn SFR the output will be low, when it is equal to or greater than the output will be
high. When CL overflows from FF to 00, CCAPLn is reloaded with the value in CCAPHn.
This allows updating the PWM without glitches. The PWM and ECOM bits in the mod-
ule's CCAPMn register must be set to enable the PWM mode.

PCA Watchdog Timer An on-board watchdog timer is available with the PCA to improve the reliability of the
system without increasing chip count. Watchdog timers are useful for systems that are
susceptible to noise, power glitches, or electrostatic discharge. Module 4 is the only
PCA module that can be programmed as a watchdog. However, this module can still be
used for other modes if the watchdog is not needed. Figure 19 shows a diagram of how
the watchdog works. The user pre-loads a 16-bit value in the compare registers. Just
like the other compare modes, this 16-bit value is compared to the PCA timer value. If a
match is allowed to occur, an internal reset will be generated. This will not cause the
RST pin to be driven high.
In order to hold off the reset, the user has three options:
1. Periodically change the compare value so it will never match the PCA timer.
2. Periodically change the PCA timer value so it will never match the compare
values.
3. Disable the watchdog by clearing the WDTE bit before a match occurs and then
re-enable it.

The first two options are more reliable because the watchdog timer is never disabled as
in option #3. If the program counter ever goes astray, a match will eventually occur and
cause an internal reset. The second option is also not recommended if other PCA mod-
ules are being used. Remember, the PCA timer is the time base for all modules;
changing the time base for other modules would not be a good idea. Thus, in most appli-
cations the first solution is the best option.
This watchdog timer won’t generate a reset out on the reset pin.

Serial I/O Port The serial I/O port in the AT89C51RD2/ED2 is compatible with the serial I/O port in the
80C52.
It provides both synchronous and asynchronous communication modes. It operates as a
Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART) in three full-duplex modes
(Modes 1, 2 and 3). Asynchronous transmission and reception can occur simultaneously
and at different baud rates
Serial I/O port includes the following enhancements:
Framing error detection
Automatic address recognition
Framing Error Detection Framing bit error detection is provided for the three asynchronous modes (modes 1, 2
and 3). To enable the framing bit error detection feature, set SMOD0 bit in PCON regis-
ter (See Figure 22).
Figure 22. Framing Error Block Diagram
When this feature is enabled, the receiver checks each incoming data frame for a valid
stop bit. An invalid stop bit may result from noise on the serial lines or from simultaneous
transmission by two CPUs. If a valid stop bit is not found, the Framing Error bit (FE) in
SCON register (See Table 33.) bit is set.
Software may examine FE bit after each reception to check for data errors. Once set,
only software or a reset can clear FE bit. Subsequently received frames with valid stop
bits cannot clear FE bit. When FE feature is enabled, RI rises on stop bit instead of the
last data bit (See Figure 23. and Figure 24.).

Automatic Address
Recognition
The automatic address recognition feature is enabled when the multiprocessor commu-
nication feature is enabled (SM2 bit in SCON register is set).
Implemented in hardware, automatic address recognition enhances the multiprocessor
communication feature by allowing the serial port to examine the address of each
incoming command frame. Only when the serial port recognizes its own address, the
receiver sets RI bit in SCON register to generate an interrupt. This ensures that the CPU
is not interrupted by command frames addressed to other devices.
If desired, the user may enable the automatic address recognition feature in mode 1.In
this configuration, the stop bit takes the place of the ninth data bit. Bit RI is set only when
the received command frame address matches the device’s address and is terminated
by a valid stop bit.
To support automatic address recognition, a device is identified by a given address and
a broadcast address.
Note: The multiprocessor communication and automatic address recognition features cannot
be enabled in mode 0 (i. e. setting SM2 bit in SCON register in mode 0 has no effect).
Given Address Each device has an individual address that is specified in SADDR register; the SADEN
register is a mask byte that contains don’t-care bits (defined by zeros) to form the
device’s given address. The don’t-care bits provide the flexibility to address one or more
slaves at a time. The following example illustrates how a given address is formed.
To address a device by its individual address, the SADEN mask byte must be 1111
1111b.
For example:
SADDR0101 0110b
SADEN1111 1100b
Given0101 01XXb
The following is an example of how to use given addresses to address different slaves:
Slave A:SADDR1111 0001b
SADEN1111 1010b
Given1111 0X0Xb
Slave B:SADDR1111 0011b
SADEN1111 1001b

AT89C51RD2/ED2
4235F–8051–09/04
The SADEN byte is selected so that each slave may be addressed separately.
For slave A, bit 0 (the LSB) is a don’t-care bit; for slaves B and C, bit 0 is a 1.To commu-
nicate with slave A only, the master must send an address where bit 0 is clear (e. g.
1111 0000b).
For slave A, bit 1 is a 1; for slaves B and C, bit 1 is a don’t care bit. To communicate with
slaves B and C, but not slave A, the master must send an address with bits 0 and 1 both
set (e. g. 1111 0011b).
To communicate with slaves A, B and C, the master must send an address with bit 0 set,
bit 1 clear, and bit 2 clear (e. g. 1111 0001b).
Broadcast Address A broadcast address is formed from the logical OR of the SADDR and SADEN registers
with zeros defined as don’t-care bits, e. g. :
SADDR 0101 0110b
SADEN 1111 1100b
Broadcast =SADDR OR SADEN1111 111Xb
The use of don’t-care bits provides flexibility in defining the broadcast address, however
in most applications, a broadcast address is FFh. The following is an example of using
broadcast addresses:
Slave A:SADDR1111 0001b
SADEN1111 1010b
Broadcast1111 1X11b,
Slave B:SADDR1111 0011b
SADEN1111 1001b
Broadcast1111 1X11B,
Slave C:SADDR=1111 0011b
SADEN1111 1101b
Broadcast1111 1111b
For slaves A and B, bit 2 is a don’t care bit; for slave C, bit 2 is set. To communicate with
all of the slaves, the master must send an address FFh. To communicate with slaves A
and B, but not slave C, the master can send and address FBh.
Reset Addresses On reset, the SADDR and SADEN registers are initialized to 00h, i. e. the given and
broadcast addresses are XXXX XXXXb (all don’t-care bits). This ensures that the serial
port will reply to any address, and so, that it is backwards compatible with the 80C51
microcontrollers that do not support automatic address recognition.

Keyboard Interface The AT89C51RD2/ED2 implements a keyboard interface allowing the connection of a
8 x n matrix keyboard. It is based on 8 inputs with programmable interrupt capability on
both high or low level. These inputs are available as alternate function of P1 and allow to
exit from idle and power-down modes.
The keyboard interfaces with the C51 core through 3 special function registers: KBLS,
the Keyboard Level Selection register (Table 45), KBE, the Keyboard interrupt Enable
register (Table 44), and KBF, the Keyboard Flag register (Table 43).
Interrupt The keyboard inputs are considered as 8 independent interrupt sources sharing the
same interrupt vector. An interrupt enable bit (KBD in IE1) allows global enable or dis-
able of the keyboard interrupt (see Figure 27). As detailed in Figure 28 each keyboard
input has the capability to detect a programmable level according to KBLS. x bit value.
Level detection is then reported in interrupt flags KBF.x that can be masked by software
using KBE. x bits.
This structure allow keyboard arrangement from 1 by n to 8 by n matrix and allows
usage of P1 inputs for other purpose.

Serial Port Interface
(SPI)
The Serial Peripheral Interface Module (SPI) allows full-duplex, synchronous, serial
communication between the MCU and peripheral devices, including other MCUs.
Features Features of the SPI Module include the following:
Full-duplex, three-wire synchronous transfers
Master or Slave operation
Eight programmable Master clock rates
Serial clock with programmable polarity and phase
Master Mode fault error flag with MCU interrupt capability
Write collision flag protection
Signal Description Figure 29 shows a typical SPI bus configuration using one Master controller and many
Slave peripherals. The bus is made of three wires connecting all the devices.
Figure 29. SPI Master/Slaves Interconnection
The Master device selects the individual Slave devices by using four pins of a parallel
port to control the four SS pins of the Slave devices.
Master Output Slave Input
(MOSI)
This 1-bit signal is directly connected between the Master Device and a Slave Device.
The MOSI line is used to transfer data in series from the Master to the Slave. Therefore,
it is an output signal from the Master, and an input signal to a Slave. A Byte (8-bit word)
is transmitted most significant bit (MSB) first, least significant bit (LSB) last.
Master Input Slave Output
(MISO)
This 1-bit signal is directly connected between the Slave Device and a Master Device.
The MISO line is used to transfer data in series from the Slave to the Master. Therefore,
it is an output signal from the Slave, and an input signal to the Master. A Byte (8-bit
word) is transmitted most significant bit (MSB) first, least significant bit (LSB) last.
SPI Serial Clock (SCK) This signal is used to synchronize the data movement both in and out of the devices
through their MOSI and MISO lines. It is driven by the Master for eight clock cycles
which allows to exchange one Byte on the serial lines.
Slave Select (SS)Each Slave peripheral is selected by one Slave Select pin (SS). This signal must stay
low for any message for a Slave. It is obvious that only one Master (SS high level) can

drive the network. The Master may select each Slave device by software through port
pins (Figure 30). To prevent bus conflicts on the MISO line, only one slave should be
selected at a time by the Master for a transmission.
In a Master configuration, the SS line can be used in conjunction with the MODF flag in
the SPI Status register (SPSTA) to prevent multiple masters from driving MOSI and
SCK (see Error conditions).
A high level on the SS pin puts the MISO line of a Slave SPI in a high-impedance state.
The SS pin could be used as a general-purpose if the following conditions are met:
The device is configured as a Master and the SSDIS control bit in SPCON is set.
This kind of configuration can be found when only one Master is driving the network
and there is no way that the SS pin could be pulled low. Therefore, the MODF flag in
the SPSTA will never be set(1).
The Device is configured as a Slave with CPHA and SSDIS control bits set(2). This
kind of configuration can happen when the system comprises one Master and one
Slave only. Therefore, the device should always be selected and there is no reason
that the Master uses the SS pin to select the communicating Slave device.
Note: 1. Clearing SSDIS control bit does not clear MODF.
2. Special care should be taken not to set SSDIS control bit when CPHA = ’0’ because
in this mode, the SS is used to start the transmission.
Baud Rate In Master mode, the baud rate can be selected from a baud rate generator which is con-
trolled by three bits in the SPCON register: SPR2, SPR1 and SPR0.The Master clock is
selected from one of seven clock rates resulting from the division of the internal clock by
2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 or 128.
Table 46 gives the different clock rates selected by SPR2:SPR1:SPR0.

Functional Description Figure 30 shows a detailed structure of the SPI Module.
Figure 30. SPI Module Block Diagram
Operating Modes The Serial Peripheral Interface can be configured in one of the two modes: Master mode
or Slave mode. The configuration and initialization of the SPI Module is made through
one register:
The Serial Peripheral Control register (SPCON)
Once the SPI is configured, the data exchange is made using:
SPCON
The Serial Peripheral STAtus register (SPSTA)
The Serial Peripheral DATa register (SPDAT)
During an SPI transmission, data is simultaneously transmitted (shifted out serially) and
received (shifted in serially). A serial clock line (SCK) synchronizes shifting and sam-
pling on the two serial data lines (MOSI and MISO). A Slave Select line (SS) allows
individual selection of a Slave SPI device; Slave devices that are not selected do not
interfere with SPI bus activities.
When the Master device transmits data to the Slave device via the MOSI line, the Slave
device responds by sending data to the Master device via the MISO line. This implies
full-duplex transmission with both data out and data in synchronized with the same clock
(Figure 31).

Figure 31. Full-Duplex Master-Slave Interconnection
Master Mode The SPI operates in Master mode when the Master bit, MSTR (1), in the SPCON register
is set. Only one Master SPI device can initiate transmissions. Software begins the trans-
mission from a Master SPI Module by writing to the Serial Peripheral Data Register
(SPDAT). If the shift register is empty, the Byte is immediately transferred to the shift
register. The Byte begins shifting out on MOSI pin under the control of the serial clock,
SCK. Simultaneously, another Byte shifts in from the Slave on the Master’s MISO pin.
The transmission ends when the Serial Peripheral transfer data flag, SPIF, in SPSTA
becomes set. At the same time that SPIF becomes set, the received Byte from the Slave
is transferred to the receive data register in SPDAT. Software clears SPIF by reading
the Serial Peripheral Status register (SPSTA) with the SPIF bit set, and then reading the
SPDAT.
Slave Mode The SPI operates in Slave mode when the Master bit, MSTR (2), in the SPCON register is
cleared. Before a data transmission occurs, the Slave Select pin, SS, of the Slave
device must be set to ’0’. SS must remain low until the transmission is complete.
In a Slave SPI Module, data enters the shift register under the control of the SCK from
the Master SPI Module. After a Byte enters the shift register, it is immediately trans-
ferred to the receive data register in SPDAT, and the SPIF bit is set. To prevent an
overflow condition, Slave software must then read the SPDAT before another Byte
enters the shift register (3). A Slave SPI must complete the write to the SPDAT (shift reg-
ister) at least one bus cycle before the Master SPI starts a transmission. If the write to
the data register is late, the SPI transmits the data already in the shift register from the
previous transmission. The maximum SCK frequency allowed in slave mode is FCLK PERIPH
/4.
Transmission Formats Software can select any of four combinations of serial clock (SCK) phase and polarity
using two bits in the SPCON: the Clock Polarity (CPOL (4)) and the Clock Phase
(CPHA4). CPOL defines the default SCK line level in idle state. It has no significant
effect on the transmission format. CPHA defines the edges on which the input data are
sampled and the edges on which the output data are shifted (Figure 32 and Figure 33).
The clock phase and polarity should be identical for the Master SPI device and the com-
municating Slave device.

1. The SPI Module should be configured as a Master before it is enabled (SPEN set). Also,
the Master SPI should be configured before the Slave SPI.
2. The SPI Module should be configured as a Slave before it is enabled (SPEN set).
3. The maximum frequency of the SCK for an SPI configured as a Slave is the bus clock
speed.
4. Before writing to the CPOL and CPHA bits, the SPI should be disabled (SPEN = ’0’).

Figure 33. Data Transmission Format (CPHA = 1)
Figure 34. CPHA/SS Timing
As shown in Figure 32, the first SCK edge is the MSB capture strobe. Therefore, the
Slave must begin driving its data before the first SCK edge, and a falling edge on the SS
pin is used to start the transmission. The SS pin must be toggled high and then low
between each Byte transmitted (Figure 34).
Figure 33 shows an SPI transmission in which CPHA is ’1’. In this case, the Master
begins driving its MOSI pin on the first SCK edge. Therefore, the Slave uses the first
SCK edge as a start transmission signal. The SS pin can remain low between transmis-
sions (Figure 34). This format may be preferred in systems having only one Master and
only one Slave driving the MISO data line.

Error Conditions The following flags in the SPSTA signal SPI error conditions:
Mode Fault (MODF) Mode Fault error in Master mode SPI indicates that the level on the Slave Select (SS)
pin is inconsistent with the actual mode of the device. MODF is set to warn that there
may be a multi-master conflict for system control. In this case, the SPI system is
affected in the following ways:
An SPI receiver/error CPU interrupt request is generated
The SPEN bit in SPCON is cleared. This disables the SPI
The MSTR bit in SPCON is cleared
When SS Disable (SSDIS) bit in the SPCON register is cleared, the MODF flag is set
when the SS signal becomes ’0’.
However, as stated before, for a system with one Master, if the SS pin of the Master
device is pulled low, there is no way that another Master attempts to drive the network.
In this case, to prevent the MODF flag from being set, software can set the SSDIS bit in
the SPCON register and therefore making the SS pin as a general-purpose I/O pin.
Clearing the MODF bit is accomplished by a read of SPSTA register with MODF bit set,
followed by a write to the SPCON register. SPEN Control bit may be restored to its orig-
inal set state after the MODF bit has been cleared.
Write Collision (WCOL) A Write Collision (WCOL) flag in the SPSTA is set when a write to the SPDAT register is
done during a transmit sequence.
WCOL does not cause an interruption, and the transfer continues uninterrupted.
Clearing the WCOL bit is done through a software sequence of an access to SPSTA
and an access to SPDAT.
Overrun Condition An overrun condition occurs when the Master device tries to send several data Bytes
and the Slave devise has not cleared the SPIF bit issuing from the previous data Byte
transmitted. In this case, the receiver buffer contains the Byte sent after the SPIF bit was
last cleared. A read of the SPDAT returns this Byte. All others Bytes are lost.
This condition is not detected by the SPI peripheral.
SS Error Flag (SSERR) A Synchronous Serial Slave Error occurs when SS goes high before the end of a
received data in slave mode. SSERR does not cause in interruption, this bit is cleared
by writing 0 to SPEN bit (reset of the SPI state machine).
Interrupts Two SPI status flags can generate a CPU interrupt requests:
Table 47. SPI Interrupts
Serial Peripheral data transfer flag, SPIF: This bit is set by hardware when a transfer
has been completed. SPIF bit generates transmitter CPU interrupt requests.
Mode Fault flag, MODF: This bit becomes set to indicate that the level on the SS is
inconsistent with the mode of the SPI. MODF with SSDIS reset, generates receiver/error
CPU interrupt requests. When SSDIS is set, no MODF interrupt request is generated.
Figure 35 gives a logical view of the above statements.

Serial Peripheral DATa Register
(SPDAT)
The Serial Peripheral Data Register (Table 50) is a read/write buffer for the receive data
register. A write to SPDAT places data directly into the shift register. No transmit buffer is
available in this model.
A Read of the SPDAT returns the value located in the receive buffer and not the content
of the shift register.

R7:R0: Receive data bits
SPCON, SPSTA and SPDAT registers may be read and written at any time while there
is no on-going exchange. However, special care should be taken when writing to them
while a transmission is on-going:
Do not change SPR2, SPR1 and SPR0
Do not change CPHA and CPOL
Do not change MSTR
Clearing SPEN would immediately disable the peripheral
Writing to the SPDAT will cause an overflow.

Interrupt System The AT89C51RD2/ED2 has a total of 9 interrupt vectors: two external interrupts (INT0
and INT1), three timer interrupts (timers 0, 1 and 2), the serial port interrupt, SPI inter-
rupt, Keyboard interrupt and the PCA global interrupt. These interrupts are shown in
Figure 36.
Figure 36. Interrupt Control System
Each of the interrupt sources can be individually enabled or disabled by setting or clear-
ing a bit in the Interrupt Enable register (Table 54 and Table 56). This register also
contains a global disable bit, which must be cleared to disable all interrupts at once.
Each interrupt source can also be individually programmed to one out of four priority lev-
els by setting or clearing a bit in the Interrupt Priority register (Table 57) and in the
Interrupt Priority High register (Table 55 and Table 56) shows the bit values and priority
levels associated with each combination.

Registers The PCA interrupt vector is located at address 0033H, the SPI interrupt vector is located
at address 004BH and Keyboard interrupt vector is located at address 003BH. All other
vectors addresses are the same as standard C52 devices.
Table 51. Priority Level Bit Values
A low-priority interrupt can be interrupted by a high priority interrupt, but not by another
low-priority interrupt. A high-priority interrupt can’t be interrupted by any other interrupt
source.
If two interrupt requests of different priority levels are received simultaneously, the
request of higher priority level is serviced. If interrupt requests of the same priority level
are received simultaneously, an internal polling sequence determines which request is
serviced. Thus within each priority level there is a second priority structure determined
by the polling sequence.

Power Management
Introduction Two power reduction modes are implemented in the AT89C51RD2/ED2. The Idle mode
and the Power-Down mode. These modes are detailed in the following sections. In addi-
tion to these power reduction modes, the clocks of the core and peripherals can be
dynamically divided by 2 using the X2 mode detailed in Section “Enhanced Features”,
page 17.
Idle Mode Idle mode is a power reduction mode that reduces the power consumption. In this mode,
program execution halts. Idle mode freezes the clock to the CPU at known states while
the peripherals continue to be clocked. The CPU status before entering Idle mode is
preserved, i.e., the program counter and program status word register retain their data
for the duration of Idle mode. The contents of the SFRs and RAM are also retained. The
status of the Port pins during Idle mode is detailed in Table 59.
Entering Idle Mode To enter Idle mode, set the IDL bit in PCON register (see Table 60). The
AT89C51RD2/ED2 enters Idle mode upon execution of the instruction that sets IDL bit.
The instruction that sets IDL bit is the last instruction executed.
Note: If IDL bit and PD bit are set simultaneously, the AT89C51RD2/ED2 enters Power-Down
mode. Then it does not go in Idle mode when exiting Power-Down mode.
Exiting Idle Mode There are two ways to exit Idle mode:
1. Generate an enabled interrupt.
Hardware clears IDL bit in PCON register which restores the clock to the
CPU. Execution resumes with the interrupt service routine. Upon completion
of the interrupt service routine, program execution resumes with the
instruction immediately following the instruction that activated Idle mode.
The general purpose flags (GF1 and GF0 in PCON register) may be used to
indicate whether an interrupt occurred during normal operation or during Idle
mode. When Idle mode is exited by an interrupt, the interrupt service routine
may examine GF1 and GF0.
2. Generate a reset.
A logic high on the RST pin clears IDL bit in PCON register directly and
asynchronously. This restores the clock to the CPU. Program execution
momentarily resumes with the instruction immediately following the
instruction that activated the Idle mode and may continue for a number of
clock cycles before the internal reset algorithm takes control. Reset
initializes the AT89C51RD2/ED2 and vectors the CPU to address C:0000h.
Note: During the time that execution resumes, the internal RAM cannot be accessed; however,
it is possible for the Port pins to be accessed. To avoid unexpected outputs at the Port
pins, the instruction immediately following the instruction that activated Idle mode should
not write to a Port pin or to the external RAM.
Power-Down Mode The Power-Down mode places the AT89C51RD2/ED2 in a very low power state.
Power-Down mode stops the oscillator, freezes all clock at known states. The CPU sta-
tus prior to entering Power-Down mode is preserved, i.e., the program counter, program
status word register retain their data for the duration of Power-Down mode. In addition,
83
AT89C51RD2/ED2
4235F–8051–09/04
the SFR and RAM contents are preserved. The status of the Port pins during Power-
Down mode is detailed in Table 59.
Note: VCC may be reduced to as low as VRET during Power-Down mode to further reduce
power dissipation. Take care, however, that VDD is not reduced until Power-Down mode
is invoked.
Entering Power-Down Mode To enter Power-Down mode, set PD bit in PCON register. The AT89C51RD2/ED2
enters the Power-Down mode upon execution of the instruction that sets PD bit. The
instruction that sets PD bit is the last instruction executed.
Exiting Power-Down Mode
Note: If VCC was reduced during the Power-Down mode, do not exit Power-Down mode until
VCC is restored to the normal operating level.
There are two ways to exit the Power-Down mode:
1. Generate an enabled external interrupt.
The AT89C51RD2/ED2 provides capability to exit from Power-Down using
INT0#, INT1#.
Hardware clears PD bit in PCON register which starts the oscillator and
restores the clocks to the CPU and peripherals. Using INTx# input,
execution resumes when the input is released (see Figure 37). Execution
resumes with the interrupt service routine. Upon completion of the interrupt
service routine, program execution resumes with the instruction immediately
following the instruction that activated Power-Down mode.
Note: The external interrupt used to exit Power-Down mode must be configured as level sensi-
tive (INT0# and INT1#) and must be assigned the highest priority. In addition, the
duration of the interrupt must be long enough to allow the oscillator to stabilize. The exe-
cution will only resume when the interrupt is deasserted.
Note: Exit from power-down by external interrupt does not affect the SFRs nor the internal RAM
content.
Figure 37. Power-Down Exit Waveform Using INT1:0#
2. Generate a reset.
A logic high on the RST pin clears PD bit in PCON register directly and
asynchronously. This starts the oscillator and restores the clock to the CPU
and peripherals. Program execution momentarily resumes with the
instruction immediately following the instruction that activated Power-Down
mode and may continue for a number of clock cycles before the internal
reset algorithm takes control. Reset initializes the AT89C51RD2/ED2 and
vectors the CPU to address 0000h.
Note: During the time that execution resumes, the internal RAM cannot be accessed; however,
it is possible for the Port pins to be accessed. To avoid unexpected outputs at the Port

pins, the instruction immediately following the instruction that activated the Power-Down
mode should not write to a Port pin or to the external RAM.
Note: Exit from power-down by reset redefines all the SFRs, but does not affect the internal
RAM content.

Hardware Watchdog
Timer
The WDT is intended as a recovery method in situations where the CPU may be sub-
jected to software upset. The WDT consists of a 14-bit counter and the Watchdog Timer
ReSeT (WDTRST) SFR. The WDT is by default disabled from exiting reset. To enable
the WDT, user must write 01EH and 0E1H in sequence to the WDTRST, SFR location
0A6H. When WDT is enabled, it will increment every machine cycle while the oscillator
is running and there is no way to disable the WDT except through reset (either hardware
reset or WDT overflow reset). When WDT overflows, it will drive an output RESET HIGH
pulse at the RST-pin.
Using the WDT To enable the WDT, user must write 01EH and 0E1H in sequence to the WDTRST, SFR
location 0A6H. When WDT is enabled, the user needs to service it by writing to 01EH
and 0E1H to WDTRST to avoid WDT overflow. The 14-bit counter overflows when it
reaches 16383 (3FFFH) and this will reset the device. When WDT is enabled, it will
increment every machine cycle while the oscillator is running. This means the user must
reset the WDT at least every 16383 machine cycle. To reset the WDT the user must
write 01EH and 0E1H to WDTRST. WDTRST is a write only register. The WDT counter
cannot be read or written. When WDT overflows, it will generate an output RESET pulse
at the RST-pin. The RESET pulse duration is 96 x TCLK PERIPH, where TCLK PERIPH= 1/FCLK
PERIPH. To make the best use of the WDT, it should be serviced in those sections of code
that will periodically be executed within the time required to prevent a WDT reset.
To have a more powerful WDT, a 27 counter has been added to extend the Time-out
capability, ranking from 16 ms to 2s @ FOSCA = 12 MHz. To manage this feature, refer to
WDTPRG register description, Table 61. The WDTPRG register should be configured
before the WDT activation sequence, and can not be modified until next reset.

WDT during Power-down
and Idle
In Power-down mode the oscillator stops, which means the WDT also stops. While in
Power-down mode the user does not need to service the WDT. There are 2 methods of
exiting Power-down mode: by a hardware reset or via a level activated external interrupt
which is enabled prior to entering Power-down mode. When Power-down is exited with
hardware reset, servicing the WDT should occur as it normally should whenever the
AT89C51RD2/ED2 is reset. Exiting Power-down with an interrupt is significantly differ-
ent. The interrupt is held low long enough for the oscillator to stabilize. When the
interrupt is brought high, the interrupt is serviced. To prevent the WDT from resetting the
device while the interrupt pin is held low, the WDT is not started until the interrupt is
pulled high. It is suggested that the WDT be reset during the interrupt service routine.
To ensure that the WDT does not overflow within a few states of exiting of powerdown, it
is better to reset the WDT just before entering powerdown.
In the Idle mode, the oscillator continues to run. To prevent the WDT from resetting the
AT89C51RD2/ED2 while in Idle mode, the user should always set up a timer that will
periodically exit Idle, service the WDT, and re-enter Idle mode.

ONCE® Mode (ON-
Chip Emulation)
The ONCE mode facilitates testing and debugging of systems using AT89C51RD2/ED2
without removing the circuit from the board. The ONCE mode is invoked by driving cer-
tain pins of the AT89C51RD2/ED2; the following sequence must be exercised:
Pull ALE low while the device is in reset (RST high) and PSEN is high.
Hold ALE low as RST is deactivated.
While the AT89C51RD2/ED2 is in ONCE mode, an emulator or test CPU can be used to
drive the circuit. Table 63 shows the status of the port pins during ONCE mode.
Normal operation is restored when normal reset is applied.

Power-off Flag The power-off flag allows the user to distinguish between a “cold start” reset and a
“warm start” reset.
A cold start reset is the one induced by VCC switch-on. A warm start reset occurs while
VCC is still applied to the device and could be generated for example by an exit from
power-down.
The power-off flag (POF) is located in PCON register (Table 64). POF is set by hard-
ware when VCC rises from 0 to its nominal voltage. The POF can be set or cleared by
software allowing the user to determine the type of reset.

Reduced EMI Mode The ALE signal is used to demultiplex address and data buses on port 0 when used with
external program or data memory. Nevertheless, during internal code execution, ALE
signal is still generated. In order to reduce EMI, ALE signal can be disabled by setting
AO bit.
The AO bit is located in AUXR register at bit location 0. As soon as AO is set, ALE is no
longer output but remains active during MOVX and MOVC instructions and external
fetches. During ALE disabling, ALE pin is weakly pulled high.

EEPROM Data
Memory
This feature is available only for the AT89C51ED2 device.
The 2K bytes on-chip EEPROM memory block is located at addresses 0000h to 07FFh
of the XRAM/ERAM memory space and is selected by setting control bits in the EECON
register.
A read or write access to the EEPROM memory is done with a MOVX instruction.
Write Data Data is written by byte to the EEPROM memory block as for an external RAM memory.
The following procedure is used to write to the EEPROM memory:
Check EEBUSY flag
If the user application interrupts routines use XRAM memory space: Save and
disable interrupts.
Load DPTR with the address to write
Store A register with the data to be written
Set bit EEE of EECON register
Execute a MOVX @DPTR, A
Clear bit EEE of EECON register
Restore interrupts.
EEBUSY flag in EECON is then set by hardware to indicate that programming is in
progress and that the EEPROM segment is not available for reading or writing.
The end of programming is indicated by a hardware clear of the EEBUSY flag.
Figure 38 represents the optimal write sequence to the on-chip EEPROM data memory.

Flash/EEPROM
Memory
The Flash memory increases EEPROM and ROM functionality with in-circuit electrical
erasure and programming. It contains 64K bytes of program memory organized respec-
tively in 512 pages of 128 bytes. This memory is both parallel and serial In-System
Programmable (ISP). ISP allows devices to alter their own program memory in the
actual end product under software control. A default serial loader (bootloader) program
allows ISP of the Flash.
The programming does not require external dedicated programming voltage. The nec-
essary high programming voltage is generated on-chip using the standard VCC pins of
the microcontroller.
Features Flash EEPROM Internal Program Memory
Boot vector allows user provided Flash loader code to reside anywhere in the Flash
memory space. This configuration provides flexibility to the user.
Default loader in Boot ROM allows programming via the serial port without the need
of a user provided loader.
Up to 64K bytes external program memory if the internal program memory is
disabled (EA = 0).
Programming and erasing voltage with standard power supply
Read/Programming/Erase:
Byte-wise read without wait state
Byte or page erase and programming (10 ms)
Typical programming time (64K bytes) is 22s with on chip serial bootloader
Parallel programming with 87C51 compatible hardware interface to programmer
Programmable security for the code in the Flash
100K write cycles
10 years data retention
Flash Programming and
Erasure
The 64-K byte Flash is programmed by bytes or by pages of 128 bytes. It is not neces-
sary to erase a byte or a page before programming. The programming of a byte or a
page includes a self erase before programming.
There are three methods of programming the Flash memory:
1. The on-chip ISP bootloader may be invoked which will use low level routines to
program the pages. The interface used for serial downloading of Flash is the
UART.
2. The Flash may be programmed or erased in the end-user application by calling
low-level routines through a common entry point in the Boot ROM.
3. The Flash may be programmed using the parallel method by using a conven-
tional EPROM programmer. The parallel programming method used by these
devices is similar to that used by EPROM 87C51 but it is not identical and the
commercially available programmers need to have support for the
AT89C51RD2/ED2. The bootloader and the Application Programming Interface
(API) routines are located in the BOOT ROM.

Flash Registers and
Memory Map
The AT89C51RD2/ED2 Flash memory uses several registers for its management:
Hardware register can only be accessed through the parallel programming modes
which are handled by the parallel programmer.
Software registers are in a special page of the Flash memory which can be
accessed through the API or with the parallel programming modes. This page,
called "Extra Flash Memory", is not in the internal Flash program memory
addressing space.
Hardware Register The only hardware register of the AT89C51RD2/ED2 is called Hardware Byte or Hard-
ware Security Byte (HSB).
Table 67. Hardware Security Byte (HSB)
Boot Loader Jump Bit (BLJB)
One bit of the HSB, the BLJB bit, is used to force the boot address:
When this bit is programmed (‘0’ value) the boot address is F800h.
When this bit is unprogrammed (‘1’ value) the boot address is 0000h.
By default, this bit is programmed and the ISP is enabled.
Flash Memory Lock Bits The three lock bits provide different levels of protection for the on-chip code and data
when programmed as shown in Table 68.

WARNING: Security level 2 and 3 should only be programmed after Flash and code
verification.
These security bits protect the code access through the parallel programming interface.
They are set by default to level 4. The code access through the ISP is still possible and
is controlled by the "software security bits" which are stored in the extra Flash memory
accessed by the ISP firmware.
To load a new application with the parallel programmer, a chip erase must first be done.
This will set the HSB in its inactive state and will erase the Flash memory. The part ref-
erence can always be read using Flash parallel programming modes.
Default Values The default value of the HSB provides parts ready to be programmed with ISP:
BLJB: Programmed force ISP operation.
X2: Unprogrammed to force X1 mode (Standard Mode).
XRAM: Unprogrammed to valid XRAM
LB2-0: Security level four to protect the code from a parallel access with maximum
security.
Software Registers Several registers are used in factory and by parallel programmers. These values are
used by Atmel ISP.
These registers are in the "Extra Flash Memory" part of the Flash memory. This block is
also called "XAF" or eXtra Array Flash. They are accessed in the following ways:
Commands issued by the parallel memory programmer.
Commands issued by the ISP software.
Calls of API issued by the application software.
Several software registers are described in Table 69.

provide the whole access and service on Flash memory. Furthermore, all accesses and
routines can be called from the user application.

Functional Description Figure 42. Bootloader Functional Description
On the above diagram, the on-chip bootloader processes are:
ISP Communication Management
The purpose of this process is to manage the communication and its protocol between
the on-chip bootloader and a external device. The on-chip ROM implements a serial
protocol (see section “Bootloader Protocol”). This process translate serial communica-
tion frame (UART) into Flash memory access (read, write, erase, etc.).
User Call Management
Several Application Program Interface (API) calls are available for use by an application
program to permit selective erasing and programming of Flash pages. All calls are made
through a common interface (API calls), included in the ROM bootloader. The program-
ming functions are selected by setting up the microcontroller’s registers before making a
call to a common entry point (0xFFF0). Results are returned in the registers. The pur-
pose on this process is to translate the registers values into internal Flash Memory
Management.

This process manages low level access to Flash memory (performs read and write
access).

Bootloader Functionality The bootloader can be activated by two means: Hardware conditions or regular boot
process.
The Hardware conditions (EA = 1, PSEN = 0) during the Reset# falling edge force the
on-chip bootloader execution. This allows an application to be built that will normally
execute the end user’s code but can be manually forced into default ISP operation.
As PSEN is a an output port in normal operating mode after reset, user application
should take care to release PSEN after falling edge of reset signal. The hardware condi-
tions are sampled at reset signal falling edge, thus they can be released at any time
when reset input is low.
To ensure correct microcontroller startup, the PSEN pin should not be tied to ground
during power-on (See Figure 43).
Figure 43. Hardware conditions typical sequence during power-on.
The on-chip bootloader boot process is shown Figure 44.

Table 72. Bootloader Process Description
Purpose
Hardware Conditions The Hardware Conditions force the bootloader execution whatever
BLJB, BSB and SBV values.
BLJB
The Boot Loader Jump Bit forces the application execution.
BLJB = 0 => Bootloader execution
BLJB = 1 => Application execution
The BLJB is a fuse bit in the Hardware Byte.
It can be modified by hardware (programmer) or by software (API).
Note: The BLJB test is performed by hardware to prevent any
program execution.
SBV
The Software Boot Vector contains the high address of customer
bootloader stored in the application.
SBV = FCh (default value) if no customer bootloader in user Flash.
Note: The customer bootloader is called by JMP [SBV]00h
instruction.

ISP Protocol Description
Physical Layer The UART used to transmit information has the following configuration:
Character: 8-bit data
Parity: none
Stop: 2 bits
Flow control: none
Baudrate: autobaud is performed by the bootloader to compute the baudrate
chosen by the host.
Frame Description The Serial Protocol is based on the Intel Hex-type records.
Intel Hex records consist of ASCII characters used to represent hexadecimal values and
are summarized below.
Figure 45. Intel Hex Type Frame
Record Mark:
Record Mark is the start of frame. This field must contain ’:’.
Reclen:
Reclen specifies the number of bytes of information or data which follows the Record
Type field of the record.
Load Offset:
Load Offset specifies the 16-bit starting load offset of the data bytes, therefore this field
is used only for Data Program Record (see Section “ISP Commands Summary”).
Record Type:
Record Type specifies the command type. This field is used to interpret the remaining
information within the frame. The encoding for all the current record types is described
in Section “ISP Commands Summary”.
Data/Info:
Data/Info is a variable length field. It consists of zero or more bytes encoded as pairs of
hexadecimal digits. The meaning of data depends on the Record Type.
Checksum:
The two’s complement of the 8-bit bytes that result from converting each pair of ASCII
hexadecimal digits to one byte of binary, and including the Reclen field to and including
the last byte of the Data/Info field. Therefore, the sum of all the ASCII pairs in a record
after converting to binary, from the Reclen field to and including the Checksum field, is
zero.

Functional Description
Software Security Bits (SSB) The SSB protects any Flash access from ISP command.
The command "Program Software Security Bit" can only write a higher priority level.
There are three levels of security:
level 0: NO_SECURITY (FFh)
This is the default level.
From level 0, one can write level 1 or level 2.
level 1: WRITE_SECURITY (FEh)
For this level it is impossible to write in the Flash memory, BSB and SBV.
The Bootloader returns ’P’ on write access.
From level 1, one can write only level 2.
level 2: RD_WR_SECURITY (FCh
The level 2 forbids all read and write accesses to/from the Flash/EEPROM memory.
The Bootloader returns ’L’ on read or write access.
Only a full chip erase in parallel mode (using a programmer) or ISP command can reset
the software security bits.
From level 2, one cannot read and write anything.

106 AT89C51RD2/ED2
4235F–8051–09/04
Full Chip Erase The ISP command "Full Chip Erase" erases all user Flash memory (fills with FFh) and
sets some bytes used by the bootloader at their default values:
BSB = FFh
SBV = FCh
SSB = FFh
The Full Chip Erase does not affect the bootloader.
Checksum Error When a checksum error is detected, send ‘X’ followed with CR&LF.
Flow Description
Overview An initialization step must be performed after each Reset. After microcontroller reset,
the bootloader waits for an autobaud sequence (see section ‘Autobaud Performances’).
When the communication is initialized, the protocol depends on the record type
requested by the host.
FLIP, a software utility to implement ISP programming with a PC, is available from the
Atmel web site.
Communication Initialization The host initializes the communication by sending a ’U’ character to help the bootloader
to compute the baudrate (autobaud).

Autobaud Performances The ISP feature allows a wide range of baud rates in the user application. It is also
adaptable to a wide range of oscillator frequencies. This is accomplished by measuring
the bit-time of a single bit in a received character. This information is then used to pro-
gram the baud rate in terms of timer counts based on the oscillator frequency. The ISP
feature requires that an initial character (an uppercase U) be sent to the
AT89C51RD2/ED2 to establish the baud rate. Table show the autobaud capability.

API Call Description The IAP allows to reprogram a microcontroller on-chip Flash memory without removing
it from the system and while the embedded application is running.
The user application can call some Application Programming Interface (API) routines
allowing IAP. These API are executed by the bootloader.
To call the corresponding API, the user must use a set of Flash_api routines which can
be linked with the application.
Example of Flash_api routines are available on the Atmel web site on the software appli-
cation note:
C Flash Drivers for the AT89C51RD2/ED2
The API calls description and arguments are shown in Table 76.
Process The application selects an API by setting R1, ACC, DPTR0 and DPTR1 registers.
All calls are made through a common interface “USER_CALL” at the address FFF0h.
The jump at the USER_CALL must be done by LCALL instruction to be able to come-
back in the application.
Before jump at the USER_CALL, the bit ENBOOT in AUXR1 register must be set.
Constraints The interrupts are not disabled by the bootloader.
Interrupts must be disabled by user prior to jump to the USER_CALL, then re-enabled
when returning.
Interrupts must also be disabled before accessing EEPROM Data then re-enabled after.
The user must take care of hardware watchdog before launching a Flash operation.

Notes: 1. Operating ICC is measured with all output pins disconnected; XTAL1 driven with TCLCH, TCHCL = 5 ns (see Figure 55), VIL =
VSS + 0.5V, VIH = VCC - 0.5V; XTAL2 N.C.; EA = RST = Port 0 = VCC. ICC would be slightly higher if a crystal oscillator used
(see Figure 52).
2. Idle ICC is measured with all output pins disconnected; XTAL1 driven with TCLCH, TCHCL = 5 ns, VIL = VSS + 0.5V, VIH = VCC -
0.5V; XTAL2 N.C; Port 0 = VCC; EA = RST = VSS (see Figure 53).
3. Power-down ICC is measured with all output pins disconnected; EA = VSS, PORT 0 = VCC; XTAL2 NC.; RST = VSS (see Fig-
ure 54).
4. Capacitance loading on Ports 0 and 2 may cause spurious noise pulses to be superimposed on the VOLS of ALE and Ports 1
and 3. The noise is due to external bus capacitance discharging into the Port 0 and Port 2 pins when these pins make 1 to 0
transitions during bus operation. In the worst cases (capacitive loading 100 pF), the noise pulse on the ALE line may exceed
0.45V with maxi VOL peak 0.6V. A Schmitt Trigger use is not necessary.
5. Typical values are based on a limited number of samples and are not guaranteed. The values listed are at room temperature
and 5V.
6. Under steady state (non-transient) conditions, IOL must be externally limited as follows:
Maximum IOL per port pin: 10 mA
Maximum IOL per 8-bit port:
Port 0: 26 mA
Ports 1, 2 and 3: 15 mA
Maximum total IOL for all output pins: 71 mA
If IOL exceeds the test condition, VOL may exceed the related specification. Pins are not guaranteed to sink current greater
than the listed test conditions.

AC Parameters
Explanation of the AC
Symbols
Each timing symbol has 5 characters. The first character is always a “T” (stands for
time). The other characters, depending on their positions, stand for the name of a signal
or the logical status of that signal. The following is a list of all the characters and what
they stand for.
Example:TAVLL = Time for Address Valid to ALE Low.
TLLPL = Time for ALE Low to PSEN Low.
(Load Capacitance for port 0, ALE and PSEN = 100 pF; Load Capacitance for all other
outputs = 80 pF.)
Table 77 Table 80, and Table 83 give the description of each AC symbols.
Table 78, Table 79, Table 81 and Table 84 gives the range for each AC parameter.
Table 78, Table 79 and Table 85 give the frequency derating formula of the AC parame-
ter for each speed range description. To calculate each AC symbols. take the x value in
the correponding column (-M) and use this value in the formula.
Example: TLLIU for -M and 20 MHz, Standard clock.
x = 35 ns
T 50 ns

AC Testing Input/Output
Waveforms
AC inputs during testing are driven at VCC - 0.5 for a logic “1” and 0.45V for a logic “0”.
Timing measurement are made at VIH min for a logic “1” and VIL max for a logic “0”.
Float Waveforms
For timing purposes as port pin is no longer floating when a 100 mV change from load
voltage occurs and begins to float when a 100 mV change from the loaded VOH/VOL level
occurs. IOL/IOH ± 20 mA.
Clock Waveforms Valid in normal clock mode. In X2 mode XTAL2 must be changed to XTAL2/2.

Figure 56. Internal Clock Signals
This diagram indicates when signals are clocked internally. The time it takes the signals to propagate to the pins, however,
ranges from 25 to 125 ns. This propagation delay is dependent on variables such as temperature and pin loading. Propaga-
tion also varies from output to output and component. Typically though (TA = 25°C fully loaded) RD and WR propagation
delays are approximately 50 ns. The other signals are typically 85 ns. Propagation delays are incorporated in the AC
specifications.
