W78L51
8-BIT MICROCONTROLLER
Publication Release Date: January 1999

Revision A2
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The W78L51 microcontroller supplies a wider frequency and supply voltage range than most 8-bit
microcontrollers on the market. It is compatible with the industry standard 80C51 microcontroller
series.
The W78L51 contains four 8-bit bidirectional parallel ports, one extra 4-bit bit-addressable I/O port
(Port 4) and two additional external interrupts (
INT2
, INT3 ), two 16-bit timer/counters, one watchdog
timer and a serial port. These peripherals are supported by a seven-source, two-level interrupt
capability. There are 128 bytes of RAM and an 4K byte mask ROM for application programs.
The W78L51 microcontroller has two power reduction modes, idle mode and power-down mode, both
of which are software selectable. The idle mode turns off the processor clock but allows for continued
peripheral operation. The power-down mode stops the crystal oscillator for minimum power
consumption. The external clock can be stopped at any time and in any state without affecting the
processor.

be used as general I/O pins or external interrupt input sources (
INT2

EA
External Address Input, active low. This pin forces the processor to execute out of external ROM.
This pin should be kept low for all W78C31 operations.
RST
Reset Input, active high. This pin resets the processor. It must be kept high for at least two machine
cycles in order to be recognized by the processor.

ALE
Address Latch Enable Output, active high. ALE is used to enable the address latch that separates the
address from the data on Port 0. ALE runs at 1/6th of the oscillator frequency. A single ALE pulse is
skipped during external data memory accesses. ALE goes to a high impedance state during reset with
a weak pull-up.
PSEN
Program Store Enable Output, active low.
PSEN
enables the external ROM onto the Port 0
address/data bus during fetch and MOVC operations.
PSEN
goes to a high impedance state during
reset with a weak pull-up.
XTAL1
Crystal 1. This is the crystal oscillator input. This pin may be driven by an external clock.
XTAL2
Crystal 2. This is the crystal oscillator output. It is the inversion of XTAL1.

Revision A2
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The W78L51 architecture consists of a core controller surrounded by various registers, five general
purpose I/O ports, 128 bytes of RAM, two timer/counters, one watchdog timer and a serial port. The
processor supports 111 different opcodes and references both a 64K program address space and a
64 K data storage space.
Timers 0, 1
Timers 0, 1 each consist of two 8-bit data registers. These are called TL0 and TH0 for Timer 0, TL1
and TH1 for Timer 1. The TCON and TMOD registers provide control functions for timers 0, 1.
Clock
The W78L51 is designed to be used with either a crystal oscillator or an external clock. Internally, the
clock is divided by two before it is used. This makes the W78L51 relatively insensitive to duty cycle
variations in the clock.
Crystal Oscillator
The W78L51 incorporates a built-in crystal oscillator. To make the oscillator work, a crystal must be
connected across pins XTAL1 and XTAL2. In addition, a load capacitor must be connected from each
pin to ground, and a resistor must also be connected from XTAL1 to XTAL2 to provide a DC bias
when the crystal frequency is above 24 MHz.
External Clock
An external clock should be connected to pin XTAL1. Pin XTAL2 should be left unconnected. The
XTAL1 input is a CMOS-type input, as required by the crystal oscillator. As a result, the external clock
signal should have an input high level of greater than 3.5 volts when V
DD
= 5 volts.
Power Management
Idle Mode
The idle mode is entered by setting the IDL bit in the PCON register. In the idle mode, the internal
clock to the processor is stopped. The peripherals and the interrupt logic continue to be clocked. The
processor will exit idle mode when either an interrupt or a reset occurs.
Power-down Mode
When the PD bit of the PCON register is set, the processor enters the power-down mode. In this
mode all of the clocks, including the oscillator are stopped. The only way to exit power-down mode is
by a reset.
Reset
The external RESET signal is sampled at S5P2. To take effect, it must be held high for at least two
machine cycles while the oscillator is running.
An internal trigger circuit in the reset line is used to deglitch the reset line when the W78L51 is used
with an external RC network. The reset logic also has a special glitch removal circuit that ignores
glitches on the reset line.
During reset, the ports are initialized to FFH, the stack pointer to 07H, PCON (with the exception of
bit 4) to 00H, and all of the other SFR registers except SBUF to 00H. SBUF is not reset.
