6. Hardware Options
6.1. Functional Description
Hardware Options are available in several areas to
adapt the IC function to the host system requirements:
– clock signal selection for most of the peripheral
modules from fosc to fosc/217 plus some internal sig-
nals. (see table in Chapter Hardware Options of
document “CDC16xxF-E Automotive Controller - Family
User Manual, CDC1605F-E Automotive Controller Speci-
fication” (6251-606-1PD))
– interrupt source selection for interrupt inputs 5, 6, 7,
13, 14 and 15
– Special Out signal selection for some U and H-ports
– Rx/Tx polarity selection for SPI and UART modules
– U-port Port Slow Mode selection
Hardware Option setting requires two steps:
1. selection is done by programming dedicated
address locations with the desired options’ code
2. activation is done by a read access to these dedi-
cated address locations at least once after each reset.
Address locations 00FFB8h through 00FFBFh do not
allow random setting. Their respective Hardware
Options are hard-wired and can only be altered by
changing a production mask for this IC. By default, the
Port Slow Option is set for all U-Ports, with the excep-
tion of U1.0 to U1.3 (Port Fast Option is set). The
Watchdog and Clock Monitor are activated via soft-
ware by default.
Future mask ROM derivatives of this IC will not require
(but will tolerate) activation of option settings by read
accesses, as the ROM as well as the options will be
hard-wired. Instead, the manufacturer will automati-
cally process the setting of the dedicated address
locations, as given in the ROM code file, to set the
required mask changes.
To ensure compatible option settings in this IC and
mask ROM derivatives when run with the same ROM
code, it is recommended to always read locations
00FFA0h through 00FFC3h directly after reset. Please
note that the non-programmable locations 00FFB8h
through 00FFBFh may not be compatible within this IC
and the mask ROM derivative.
