Chapter 9 — Slave Port — describes the slave port of the 8XC196Kx and explains how to pro-
gram it. Chapter 6, "I/O Ports," explains how to configure port 3 to serve as the slave port. This
chapter discusses additional configurations specific to the slave port function and describes how
to use the slave port for interprocessor communication.
Chapter 10 — Event Processor Array (EPA) — describes the event processor array, a tim-
er/counter-based, high-speed input/output unit. It describes the timer/counters and explains how
to program the EPA and how to use the EPA to produce pulse-width modulated (PWM) outputs.
Chapter 11 — Analog-to-digital Converter — provides an overview of the analog-to-digital
(A/D) converter and describes how to program the converter, read the conversion results, and in-
terface with external circuitry.
Chapter 12 — CAN Serial Communications Controller — describes the 8XC196CA's inte-
grated CAN controller and explains how to configure it. This integrated peripheral is similar to
Intel's standalone 82527 CAN serial communications controller, supporting both the standard
and extended message frames specified by the CAN 2.0 protocol parts A and B.
Chapter 13 — Minimum Hardware Considerations — describes options for providing the ba-
sic requirements for device operation within a system, discusses other hardware considerations,
and describes device reset options.
Chapter 14 — Special Operating Modes — provides an overview of the idle, powerdown,
and on-circuit emulation (ONCE) modes and describes how to enter and exit each mode.
Chapter 15 — Interfacing with External Memory — lists the external memory signals and de-
scribes the registers that control the external memory interface. It discusses the bus width and
memory configurations, the bus-hold protocol, write-control modes, and internal wait states and
ready control. Finally, it provides timing information for the system bus.
Chapter 16 — Programming the Nonvolatile Memory — provides recommended circuits, the
corresponding memory maps, and flow diagrams. It also provides procedures for auto program-
ming, and describes the commands used for serial port programming.
Appendix A — Instruction Set Reference — provides reference information for the instruction
set. It describes each instruction; defines the program status word (PSW) flags; shows the rela-
tionships between instructions and PSW flags; and lists hexadecimal opcodes, instruction
lengths, and execution times. (For additional information about the instruction set, see Chapter 3,
"Programming ConsiderAtions.")
Appendix B — Signal Descriptions — provides reference information for the device pins, in-
cluding descriptions of the pin functions, reset status of the I/O and control pins, and package pin
assignments.
