8-bit Microcontrollers Family
The core in standard configuration has integrated on-chip major peripheral functions. An asynchronous serial communications interface (SCI) and separate synchronous serial peripheral interface (SPI) are included. The main 16-bit, free-running timer system with input capture and output-compare lines, and a real-time interrupt function. An 8-bit pulse accumulator subsystem can count external events or measure external periods. Self-monitoring on-chip circuitry is included to protect the D68HC11E against system errors. A computer operating properly (COP) watchdog system protects against software failures. An illegal opcode detection circuit provides a non-maskable interrupt if illegal opcode is detected. Two software-controlled power-saving modes, WAIT and STOP, are available to conserve additional power. These modes make the D68HC11E IP Core especially attractive for automotive and battery-driven applications. The D68HC11E Microcontroller Core can be equipped with the ADC Cotroller, allowing use of external ADC Controller with standerd ADC software. The ADC Controller makes external ADC's visible as internal ADC's in original 68HC11E Microcontrollers. The D68HC11 has built in real time hardware on chip debugger the DoCDTM, allowing easy software debugging and validation. The D68HC11E is fully customizable, which means it is delivered in the exact configuration to meet users requirements. There is no need to pay extra for not used features and wasted silicon. It includes fully automated testbench with complete set of tests allowing easy package validation at each stage of SoC design flow.
Each of the DCD's D68HC11E Core has built in support for DCD Hardware Debug System called DoCDTM. It is a real-time hardware debugger which provides debugging capability of a whole System on Chip (SoC). In contrast to other on-chip debuggers the DoCDTM provides a non-intrusive debugging of running application. It can halt, run, step into or skip an instruction, read/write any contents of microcontroller including all registers, SFRs including user defined peripherals, data and program memories.

![]() BUSCTRLBus Controller - manages data exchange between CPU and seweral Internal and External MemoriesSPIIt’s a fully configurable master/slave Serial Peripheral Interface, which allows user to configure polarity and phase of serial clock signal SCK. It allows the microcontroller to communicate with serial peripheral devices. It is also capable of interprocessor communications in a multi-master system. A serial clock line (SCK) synchronizes shifting and sampling of the information on the two independent serial data lines. SPI data are simultaneously transmitted and received. SPI system is flexible enough to interface directly with numerous standard product peripherals from several manufacturers. Data rates as high as CLK/8. Clock control logic allows a selection of clock polarity and a choice of two fundamentally different clocking protocols to accommodate most available synchronous serial peripheral devices. When the SPI is configured as a master, software selects one of four different bit rates for the serial clock. Error-detection logic is included to support interprocessor communications. A write-collision detector indicates when an attempt is made to write data to the serial shift register while a transfer is in progress. A multiple-master mode-fault detector automatically disables SPI output drivers if more than one SPI devices simultaneously attempts to become bus master.IOPortsGeneral Purpose I/O Ports, when enabled the I/O Ports are shared with particular on chip peripherals: SCI, SPI, TIMER.SCIThe SCI is a full-duplex UART type asynchronous system, using standard non return to zero (NRZ) format : 1 start bit, 8 or 9 data bits and a 1 stop bit. The Core resynchronizes the receiver bit clock on all one to zero transitions in the bit stream. Therefore differences in baud rate between the sending device and the SCI are not as likely to cause reception errors. Three logic samples are taken near the middle of data bit time, and majority logic decides the sense for the bit. For the start and stop bits seven logic samples are taken. Even if noise causes one of these samples to be incorrect, the bit will still be received correctly. The receiver also has the ability to enter a temporary standby mode (called receiver wakeup) to ignore messages intended for a different receiver. Logic automatically wakes up the receiver in time to see the first character of the next message. This wakeup feature greatly reduces CPU overhead in multidrop SCI networks. The SCI transmitter can produce queued characters of idle (whole characters of all logic 1) and break (whole characters of all logic 0). In addition to the usual transmit data register empty (TDRE) status flag, this SCI also provides a transmit complete (TC) indication that can be used in applications with a modem.PULSEACCAThis system is based on an 8-bit counter and can be configured to operate as a simple event counter or for gated time accumulation. Unlike the main timer, the 8-bit pulse accumulator counter can be read or written at any time (the 16-bit counter in the main timer cannot be written). Control bits allow the user to configure and control the pulse accumulator subsystem. Two maskable interrupts are associated with the system, each having its own controls and interrupt vector. The PAI pin associated with the pulse accumulator can be configured to act as a clock (event counting mode) or as a gate signal to enable a free-running E divided by 64 clock to the 8-bit counter (gated time accumulation mode). The alternate functions of the pulse accumulator input (PAI) pin present some in-teresting application possibilities.COPCOP Watchdog TimerCTRLUNITIt performs the core synchronization and data flow control. This module manages execution of all instructions.Interrupt ControllerD68HC11 has implemented 17-level interrupt priority control. External interrupt pins are activated at low level(XIRQ,IRQ pins) or falling edge (IRQ pin). External interrupt requests by IRQ, XIRQ are sampled each 1 system clock at the rising edge of CLK. The D68HC11 peripheral systems generate maskable interrupts, which are recognized only if the global interrupt mask bit (I) in the CCR is cleared. Maskable interrupts are prioritized according to default arrangement (look at the table below) established during reset. However any one source may be elevated to the highest maskable priority position using HPRIO register. When interrupt condition occurs, an interrupt status flag is set to indicate the condition.TIMERMain Timer system, including Compare, Capture and Real Time Interrupt logic. This timer system is based on a free-running 16-bit counter with a 4-stage programmable prescaler. A timer overflow function allows software to extend the timing capability of the system beyond the 16-bit range of the counter. Three independent input-capture functions are used to automatically record the time when a selected transition is detected at a respective timer input pin. Five output-compare functions are included for generating output signals or for timing software delays. Since the input-capture and output-compare functions may not be familiar to all users, these concepts are explained in greater detail.A programmable periodic interrupt circuit called RTI is tapped off of the main 16-bit timer counter. Software can select one of four rates for the RTI, which is most commonly used to pace the execution of software routines. The COP watchdog function is closely related to the main timer in that the clock input to the COP system (clk*2^17) is tapped off the free-running counter chain. The timer subsystem involves more registers and control bits than any other subsystem on the MCU. Each of the three input-capture func-tions has its own 16-bit time capture latch (input-capture register) and each of the five output-compare functions has its own 16-bit compare register. All timer functions, including the timer overflow and RTI, have their own interrupt controls and separate interrupt vectors. Additional control bits permit software to control the edge(s) that trigger each input-capture function and the automatic actions that result from output-compare functions. Although hardwired logic is included to automate many timer activities, this timer architecture is essentially a software-oriented system. This structure is easily adaptable to a very wide range of applications although it is not as efficient as dedicated hardware for some specific timing applications. DoCDTMDoCDTM Debug Unit – it’s a real-time hardware debugger provides debugging capability of a whole SoC system. In contrast to other on-chip debuggers DoCD™ provides non-intrusive debugging of running application. It can halt, run, step into or skip an instruction, read/write any contents of microcontroller including all registers, internal, external, program memories, all SFRs including user defined peripherals. Hardware breakpoints can be set and controlled on program memory, internal and external data memories, as well as on SFRs. Hardware breakpoint is executed if any write/read occurred at particular address with certain data pattern or without pattern. The DoCDTM system includes three-wire interface and complete set of tools to communicate and work with core in real time debugging. It is built as scalable unit and some features can be turned off to save silicon and reduce power consumption. A special care on power consumption has been taken, and when debugger is not used it is automatically switched in power save mode. Finally whole debugger is turned off when debug option is no longer used.The separate DoCDTM clock line allow debugger to operate while the SLEEP mode (major clock line CLK is stopped). ADC ControllerThe ADCCTRL used in D68HC11 provides communication between the internal ADC related registers and program running on D68HC11 and external ADC converter. Supports several Parallel and serial ADC's.ALUArithmetic Logic Unit performs the arithmetic and logic operations during execution of an instruction. It contains accumulator (A, B), Condition Code Register (CCREG), and related logic such as arithmetic unit, logic unit, multiplier and divider.EEPROMCTRLExternal Serial EEPROM controller.
