SYSTEM REGISTERS (Cont’d)
2.3.4 Paged Registers
– Management of the clock frequency,
Up to 64 pages, each containing 16 registers, may
be mapped to Group F. These paged registers
hold data and control information relating to the
on-chip peripherals, each peripheral always being
associated with the same pages and registers to
ensure code compatibility between ST9 devices.
The number of these registers depends on the pe-
ripherals present in the specific ST9 device. In oth-
er words, pages only exist if the relevant peripher-
al is present.
– Enabling of Bus request and Wait signals when
interfacing to external memory.

The paged registers are addressed using the nor-
mal register addressing modes, in conjunction with
the Page Pointer register, R234, which is one of
the System registers. This register selects the
page to be mapped to Group F and, once set,
does not need to be changed if two or more regis-
ters on the same page are to be addressed in suc-
cession.
Bit 7 = SSP: System Stack Pointer.
This bit selects an internal or external System
Stack area.
0: External system stack area, in memory space.
1: Internal system stack area, in the Register File
(reset state).
Thus the instructions:
Bit 6 = USP: User Stack Pointer.
This bit selects an internal or external User Stack
area.
0: External user stack area, in memory space.
1: Internal user stack area, in the Register File (re-
set state).
spp #5
ld R242, r4
will load the contents of working register r4 into the
third register of page 5 (R242).
Warning: During an interrupt, the PPR register is
not saved automatically in the stack. If needed, it
should be saved/restored by the user within the in-
terrupt routine.
Bit 5 = DIV2: Crystal Oscillator Clock Divided by 2.
This bit controls the divide-by-2 circuit operating
on the crystal oscillator clock (CLOCK1).
0: Clock divided by 1
PAGE POINTER REGISTER (PPR)
R234 - Read/Write
1: Clock divided by 2
Register Group: E (System)
Reset value: xxxx xx00 (xxh)
Bits 4:2 = PRS[2:0]: CPUCLK Prescaler.
These bits load the prescaler division factor for the
internal clock (INTCLK). The prescaler factor se-
lects the internal clock frequency, which can be di-
vided by a factor from 1 to 8. Refer to the Reset
and Clock Control chapter for further information.

Bits 7:2 = PP[5:0]: Page Pointer.
Bit 1 = BRQEN: Bus Request Enable.
0: External Memory Bus Request disabled
1: External Memory Bus Request enabled on
BREQ pin (where available).
These bits contain the number (in the range 0 to
63) of the page specified in the spp instruction.
Once the page pointer has been set, there is no
need to refresh it unless a different page is re-
quired.
Note: Disregard this bit if BREQ pin is not availa-
ble.
Bits 1:0: Reserved. Forced by hardware to 0.
Bit 0 = HIMP: High Impedance Enable.
When a port is programmed as Address and Data
lines to interface external Memory, these lines and
the Memory interface control lines (AS, DS, R/W)
can be forced into the High Impedance state.
0: External memory interface lines in normal state
1: High Impedance state.
2.3.5 Mode Register
The Mode Register allows control of the following
operating parameters:
