Microprocessors and Microcontrollers

• Microprocessor– “A central processing unit (CPU) fabricated on one

or more chips, containing the basic arithmetic, logic, and control elements of a computer that are required for processing data”(http://www.intersil.com/digital/glossary.asp, 04SEP04)

• Microcontroller– A single-chip computer system usually comprising

a CPU, memory, input/output ports, and often, timers, counters, analog-to-digital converters (ADC), etc. used for control applications

Binary and Hexadecimal Numbers - 1

• Microcontrollers are fundamentally digital (as opposed to ‘analog’) and use binary logic– Two states: high and low, 1 or 0, on or off

• Often 5V or 0V– One binary digit is called a bit

• It can take on two possible states: 1 or 0– Eight binary digits is called a byte– Four binary digits is called a nibble

CPU

• What is it?– The “brains” of the controller

• Consists of:– Control unit

• Handles timing and sequencing of operations• Fetches instructions, decodes instructions, executes

instructions, stores results– Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)

• Carries out data manipulation– Registers

• Temporary data storage locations

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

Memory

• Random Access Memory (RAM)– Volatile– Fast

• Read-only Memory (ROM)– PROM– EPROM– EEPROM

• Configuration data infrequently changed• Slow, 10’s of ms• Byte addressable

– FEPROM (flash)• Program storage

– Ex. Atmega128 has 128k of flash memory for program storage– Programmed in blocks– 10,000 (minimum) write cycle life

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

I/O

• Data exchange with external world– Sensors (data IN)– Actuators (data OUT)– Communications

• Displays• Serial data

• Examples:– Atmega128 data sheet– Motorola 68HC11 data sheet

From Stepper Motor Driving by H. Sax (ST app note AN235/0788

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

Timer/Counter

• Registers to capture clock cycles and count pulses for timing and counting functions– Generating signals with precise timing, e.g. square wave,

PWM signals• Interrupts

– Event timing– Examples

• Encoder position sensing• Voltage to frequency decoding

• Clock signal– External crystal or onboard oscillator system sets the “beat”

and synchronizes all operations• Ex. Atmega128, 32 kHz – 8 MHz

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

Analog-to-Digital Converter

• Continuously varying values to discrete (digital levels)

• Number of channels• Number of bits

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

Busses

• The sets of internal conductors that connect the pieces of the microcontroller together

• Address bus– Carries the address of a location in memory or I/O– Width (number of conductors) determines how many memory

locations can be addressed» Ex. 68HC11 address bus is 16 bits => ? addresses

• Data bus– Carries data to and from memory or I/O ports– Width (number of conductors) determines the size of the

microcontroller, e.g. an 8-bit microcontroller• Control bus

– Carries control signals to memory and peripherals (timers, A/D, serial I/O, etc.), e.g. R/W, IRQ

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

History

• Intel 8048– Magnavox Odyssey video game and and in the

original IBM PC keyboard• Intel 8051 c. 1980

– Harvard architecture• Separate program and data memory structures accessed by

separate sets of conductors (busses)• Can fetch program and data in parallel (speed advantage)

– Boolean processing engine for efficient bit operations on internal registers and RAM

– Widely used (still)!• IBM PC keyboard controller• Programmable logic controllers

BJ Furman SJSU MAE

History, cont.

• Intel 80186 and 80188 c. 1982– Microcontroller version of the 8086/8088

microprocessors (IBM PC)

• Motorola 68HXXX– von Neumann architecture

• Program instructions and data share the same space and are accessed by same the same lines (bus)
