be set or reset for the desired edge selects, followed by the
associated WKPND bits being cleared.

This same procedure should be used following reset, since
the L port inputs are left floating as a result of reset.
13.6 MULTI-INPUT WAKE-UP
The Multi-Input Wake-up feature is used to return (wake-up)
the device from either the HALT or IDLE modes. Alternately
Multi-Input Wake-up/Interrupt feature may also be used to
generate up to 8 edge selectable external interrupts.
The occurrence of the selected trigger condition for Multi-
Input Wake-up is latched into a pending register called
WKPND. The respective bits of the WKPND register will be
set on the occurrence of the selected trigger edge on the
corresponding Port L pin. The user has the responsibility of
clearing these pending flags. Since WKPND is a pending
register for the occurrence of selected wake-up conditions,
the device will not enter the HALT mode if any Wake-up bit is
both enabled and pending. Consequently, the user must
clear the pending flags before attempting to enter the HALT
mode.
Figure 20 shows the Multi-Input Wake-up logic.
The Multi-Input Wake-up feature utilizes the L Port. The user
selects which particular L port bit (or combination of L Port
bits) will cause the device to exit the HALT or IDLE modes.
The selection is done through the register WKEN. The reg-
ister WKEN is an 8-bit read/write register, which contains a
control bit for every L port bit. Setting a particular WKEN bit
enables a Wake-up from the associated L port pin.
WKEN and WKEDG are all read/write registers, and are
cleared at reset. WKPND register contains random value
after reset.
The user can select whether the trigger condition on the
selected L Port pin is going to be either a positive edge (low
to high transition) or a negative edge (high to low transition).
This selection is made via the register WKEDG, which is an
8-bit control register with a bit assigned to each L Port pin.
Setting the control bit will select the trigger condition to be a
negative edge on that particular L Port pin. Resetting the bit
selects the trigger condition to be a positive edge. Changing
an edge select entails several steps in order to avoid a
Wake-up condition as a result of the edge change. First, the
associated WKEN bit should be reset, followed by the edge
select change in WKEDG. Next, the associated WKPND bit
should be cleared, followed by the associated WKEN bit
being re-enabled.
14.0 USART
The device contains a full-duplex software programmable
USART. The USART (Figure 21) consists of a transmit shift
register, a receive shift register and seven addressable reg-
isters, as follows: a transmit buffer register (TBUF), a re-
ceiver buffer register (RBUF), a USART control and status
register (ENU), a USART receive control and status register
(ENUR), a USART interrupt and clock source register
(ENUI), a prescaler select register (PSR) and baud (BAUD)
register. The ENU register contains flags for transmit and
receive functions; this register also determines the length of
the data frame (7, 8 or 9 bits), the value of the ninth bit in
transmission, and parity selection bits. The ENUR register
flags framing, data overrun, parity errors and line breaks
while the USART is receiving.
An example may serve to clarify this procedure. Suppose we
wish to change the edge select from positive (low going high)
to negative (high going low) for L Port bit 5, where bit 5 has
previously been enabled for an input interrupt. The program
would be as follows:
Other functions of the ENUR register include saving the
ninth bit received in the data frame, enabling or disabling the
USART’s attention mode of operation and providing addi-
tional receiver/transmitter status information via RCVG and
XMTG bits. The determination of an internal or external clock
source is done by the ENUI register, as well as selecting the
number of stop bits and enabling or disabling transmit and
receive interrupts. A control flag in this register can also
select the USART mode of operation: asynchronous or
synchronous.

If the L port bits have been used as outputs and then
changed to inputs with Multi-Input Wake-up/Interrupt, a
safety procedure should also be followed to avoid wake-up
conditions. After the selected L port bits have been changed
from output to input but before the associated WKEN bits are
enabled, the associated edge select bits in WKEDG should
