Addressing Modes:
Ex: ADD A, #77 (immediate addressing) A=A + 77(decimal) 1) Immediate Addressing Mode: Where data is available in the instruction itself. 2) Bank Register Addressing: Add A, RO since it has 4 different banks each bank each having 8 bytes and the register RO of which bank is selected by the SFR PSW. PSW: RSI and RSO selects which bank is to be selected.
3)Direct Addressing Mode: Add A,80 A A+(Data of 80 in SFR) ie, A A + PO 4)Indirect Addressing Mode: Registers R0, R1, DPTR r used to store address of the 8-bit and 16-bit. Indirect memory addressing Add A, @ RO A A + R0 5) Register Indirect Addressing Add A, @ DPTR In this address in the DPTR may be internal or external memory address. Ex. MOV A,30H This takes 2 instruction cycles ie, 24 clock cycles. MOV A,@ RO This instruction takes only 1 instruction cycle ie, 12 clock cycles.
That to latch P3 to 1, first write to latch and load 1 into it. Hence the output of the gate is the alternate output function which latches the other functions.

For 8-bit Memory address access, P2 Pins o/p the SFR register contents and helps in memory pages. The higher order 8-bit address is taken the address available in the P2 SFSR and the lower order 8-bit address is the data available in register RO.
Timer/Counter in 8051
8051 has two 16-bit Timer/counter registers. 8052 has these two plus one more:Timer 2. All these can be congured to operate either as times or event counters. In the Timer function, the register is incremented every machine cycle. Now one can think of it 1 oscillator frequency ( one as counting machine cycles (instruction cycles) and the clock rate is 12 instruction cycle = 12 clock cycles). In Counter function, the register is incremented in response to a 1 to 0 transition at its corresponding external input pins, ie. T0, T1 or (in 8052)T2. In this function, the external inputs is sampled during S5P2 of every machine cycle. When the samples show a high in one cycle and a low in the next cycle, the count is incremented. The new count value appears in the register during S3P1 of the cycle following the one in which the transition was detected. Since it takes 2 machine cycles (24 oscillator periods) to recognize a 1-to-0 transition, the maximum count rate is 1/24 of the oscillator frequency. Timer 0 and Timer 1 have 4 operating nodes. Timer 2 in 8052 has 3 modes of operation: Capture, auto-reload and bandrate generator.
Timer Mode-0 Setting timer x mode bits to 00 in the TMOD register results in using the THX register as a 8-bit counter and TLX as a 5-bit register (lower bits). The upper 3-bits of TLX are indeterminate and should be ignored. The timer overow ag in TCON is set whenever THX goes from FFh to 00h.
Pulse Input TLX 5 bits THX 8 bits TFX Interrupt
Timer Mode-1 Mode-1 is similar to mode-0 except TLX is congured as a full 8-bit counter. When the mode bits are set to 01 in TMOD.
Pulse Input TLX 8 bits THX 8 bits TFX Interrupt
TF1 Timer 1 overow ag. Set when timer rolls from all 1s to all 0. Cleared when processor vectors to execute int. Since routine at 00/Bh TR1 Timer 1 run control bit. Set to 1 by program to enable time to count. Clear to 0 by program (TRO - for Timer 0) Timer Mode-2 (Auto-reload feature) TLX is used as a 8-bit counter only. THX is used to hold a value that is loaded into TLX everytime TLX overows from FFh to 00h. The time ag is also set when TLX overows. The mode shows auto reload feature where TLX will be initialized to the content of THX after TLX overows.

Serial Interface:
The serial port is full duplex. SBUF Special function Register. Mode - 0 Shift register mode. Serial data enters and exists through RXD. 8-bits are transmitted/recieved. Pin TXD is connected to the internal shift frequency pulse source to supply shift pulses to external circuits. The shift frequency or bandrate is xed at 1/2 of the oscillator frequency.
Mode - 1 Standard UART 10 bits are transmitted (through TXD) or recieved through (RXD), a start bit(0), 8 data bits (LSB rst), and a stop bit(1). Once recieved, the stop bits goes into RB8 in special function register SCON. The band rate is variable.

Mode - 2 Multiprocessor Mode. 11 bits are transmitted through TXD or recieved through RXD, a start bit (0), 8 data bits (LSB rst), a programmable 9th bit and a stop bit(1). On transmission, the 9th data bit (TB8 in SCON) can be assigned the value 0 or 1. Or, for example, the parity bit (P in the PSN) could be moved into TB8. On receive, the 9th bit goes into RB8 in SFR SCON, which the stop bit is ignored. The bandwidth is programmable to either 1/32 or 1/64 of oscillator frequency. 2SM OD fosc fband = 64 Mode - 3 11 bits are transmitted through TXD or received through RXD: a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB rst), a programmable 9th bit, and a stop bit (1). In fact, Mode 3 is same as Mode 2 in all respects except the band rate. The band rate in Mode 3 is variable.

Timer-1 is used to generate band rate for mode-1 using overow ag of the timer to determine the band frequency. Typically Timer-1 is used in mode-2 as an auto load 8-bit that generates the band frequency. If Timer-1 is not run in timer mode-2 then the band rate is 2SM OD timer 1 overow frequency Fband = 32 fclock = 11.0592 M Hz fband = 9600 20 11.0592 106 T H 1 = 256 = 253 = 0F DG 32 12 9600
Multiprocessor Communication
Mode 2 and 3 have a special provision for multiprocessor communication. In this mode, 9 data bits are received/transmitted. The port can be programmed such that when the stop bit is received, the serial interrupt will be activated only if RB8=1. This feature is enabled by setting bit SM2 in SCON. A way to use this feature is given here.

Slave 2
When a master processor wants to send a data byte to a slave, the master sends the address of the slave rst. There may be many slave processors. An address byte diers from a data byte in that the 9th bit is 1 in an address byte and 0 in a data byte. An address byte interrupts all slaves when SM2=1. But a data byte does not interrupt the slaves if they have SM2=1. The address byte is checked by each slave and the target/addressed slave clears its SM2 so that it can receive the data
byte. The slaves that are not addressed leave their SM2s set and go on with their business, ignoring the incoming data bytes. SM2 has no eect in mode 0, and in mode 1, it can be used to check the reliability of the stop bit. In mode 1, if SM2=1, then receive interrupt will not be activated unless a valid stop bit is received.
Interrupts
8051 provides 5 interrupt sources. The 8052 provides 6.

IN T 0 and IN T 1 are external interrupts and can be level triggered or edge triggered (negative) depending upon IT 0/IT 1 in TCON SFR. IT 0 Set falling edge triggered for IN T 0 IT 0 Cleared low level triggered for IN T 0 IE0/1E1 Interrupt 0/1 edge ag. Set by hardware when external interrupt edge detected. Cleared when interrupt processed. Timer 0 and Timer 1 interrupts are generated by TF0 and TF1, which are set by a rollover in their respective Timer/Counter register (except Timer 0 in Mode 3). When a timer interrupt is generated, the ag that generated it is cleared by on chip hardware when the interrupt service routine is vector to. The serial port interrupt is generated by the logical OR of RI and TI. Neither of these ags is cleared by hardware when the interrupt service routine is vectored to. These have to be cleared by software. All of the bits that generate interrupts can be set or cleared by software, with the same result as though it had been cleared by hardware. That is, interrupts can be generated or pending interrupts can be canceled in software. Each of these interrupts can be individually enabled or disabled by setting or clearing bit in the SFR IE. IE contains a global disable bit, EA which disable all interrupts at once.

ET0 = 0/1 Disables Timer 0 OF int EX0 = 0/1 Disables/enables external int (IN T 0) Priority structure Each interrupt source can be individually programmed to one of two priority levels by setting or cleaning a bit in special function register IP. A low priority interrupt can itself be interrupted by a high priority interrupt, but not by another low priority interrupt. If two requests of dierent priority levels are received simultaneously, the request of higher priority level is serviced. If requests of same priority level are received simultaneously, an internal polling sequence determines which request has to be serviced. Thus within each priority level, there is a second priority structure determined by the polling sequence, as follows: Source Priority within level 1. IE0 (Highest) 2. TF0 3. IE1 4. TE1 5. RI+TI 6. TF2+EXF2 (Lowest) How the interrupts are handled Interrupt ags are sampled in S5P2 of each instruction cycle. The samples are polled during the following instruction cycle (machine cycle). If one of the ags was
in a set condition at S5P2 of the preceding cycle, the polling will nd it and the interrupt system will generate an LCALL to the appropriate service routine, provided this hardware generated LCALL is not blocked by any of the following conditions: 1. An interrupt of equal or higher priority level is already in progress. 2. The current polling is not the nal machine cycle of the instruction in progress 3. The instruction in progress is RET1 or any write to IE or IP registers. If an interrupt ag is a active but not being responded to for one of the above conditions, if the ag is not still active when the blocking condition is removed, the denied interrupt will not be serviced. This is because the interrupt ag once active but not serviced is not remembered. Every polling cycle is new C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6
After a interrupt is vectored to, some interrupt ags are cleared and some are not by hardware. For example: Serial port and Timer 2 interrupt ags are not cleared automatically. This has to be done by users software. IEU and IE1 are cleared if the interrupts are transition activated. TF0 and TF1 are cleared by hardware generated LCALL pushes PC into the stack but not PSW.

This means that the program itself can cause interrupts of any kind to be generated by simply setting the desired interrupt ag to 1 using program instruction.

Power-saving modes of operation Often, power saving becomes important for microcontroller-based applications.The CHMOS version of 8051 provides reduced power modes of operation as a standard feature. CHMOS (Complementary High density MOS)- A chip with high density of CMOS transistors. CHMOS Power reduction modes CHMOS version has two power-reducing modes, idle and power down. The internal circuitry which implements these features is given below.

IN
Idle and power down modes are activated by setting the corresponding bits (IDL and PD respectively) in PCON special function register.
(MSB ) PCON 87H SMOD GF1 GF0 PD (LSB ) IDL Not bit addressable
PD - Power down bits. Setting this bit activates power down operation IDL - Idle mode bit. Setting this bit activates idle mode operation.
Idle Mode An instruction that sets P CON0 causes that to be the last instruction executed before going into the idle mode. In the idle mode, the internal clock signal is gated o to the CPU, but not to the interrupt, Timer and Serial port functions. The CPU status is preserved entirely. SP,PC,PSW,Acc, and all other registers maintain thier data during the idle mode. The port pins hold their logical status they had at the time idle was activated. ALE and P SEN are hold at logic high levels. There are two ways to terminate idle. Activation of any enabled interrupt will cause PCON0 to be cleared by hardware, terminating the idle mode. After RET1 is executed, the next instruction starts from the one following the instruction which enabled the idle mode. The ag bits GF0 and GF1 can be used to give an indication if an interrupt occurred during normal operation or during the idle mode. For example, an instruction that activated idle can also set and or both ags. When idle is terminated by an interrupt, the ISR can examine the ag bits. The other way of terminating the idle mode is with a hardware reset.(Reset should be high for two machine cycle or 24 clock cycles). The signal at the RST pin clears IDL bit directly and asynchronously. At this time the CPU resumes the program execution from where it left o; that is , at the instruction following the one that involved idle mode. Two to three machine cycles should be executed before the internal reset algorithm takes control. Power down mode An instruction that sets PCON.1 causes that to be the last instruction executed before going into the power down more. In the power down mode, the on-chip oscillator is stopped. With the clock frozen, all functions are stopped, but the on-chip RAM and special function register are held. The port pins output the values held by thier respective SFRs, ALE and P SEN output. The only exit from Power down mode of operation in by a hardware reset. Reset redenes all SFRs, but does not change the on-chip RAM. Vcc may be reduced to as low as 2V during Power down mode. However Vcc should be restored to the rated value and allow clock to stabilize ( 10ms)before the Power down mode is exited, ie, hardware Reset is pressed.

It can be seen that the upper 5 bits of the program counter hold the page number and the lower 11 bits of the program counter hold the address within each page. Thus an absolute address is formed by taking page number of the instruction following the branch and attaching the absolute page range address of 11 bits to it to form the 16-bit address. Diculty is encountered when the next instruction (the instruction following the jump instruction) starts at X800H or X000H. This places the jump or call address on the same page as the next instruction. This does not give rise to any problem on forward jump, but results in error if the branch is backward in the program. This should be checked by assembler and the user should be instructed to relocate the program suitably. Short absolute range jump is also relocatable as the relative jump. Instructions using short absolutes range are ACALL addr 11 AJMP addr 11
