11.0 In-System Programming

11.1 INTRODUCTION

This device provides the capability to program the program

memory while installed in an application board. This feature

is called In System Programming (ISP). It provides a means

of ISP by using the MICROWIRE/PLUS, or the user can

provide his own, customized ISP routine. The factory in-

stalled ISP uses the MICROWIRE/PLUS port. The user can

provide his own ISP routine that uses any of the capabilities

of the device, such as USART, parallel port, etc.

11.2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The organization of the ISP feature consists of the user flash

program memory, the factory boot ROM, and some registers

dedicated to performing the ISP function. See Figure 13 for

a simplified block diagram. The factory installed ISP that

uses MICROWIRE/PLUS is located in the Boot ROM. The

size of the Boot ROM is 1K bytes and also contains code to

facilitate in system emulation capability. If a user chooses to

write his own ISP routine, it must be located in the flash

program memory.

As described in 10.5 OPTION REGISTER, there is a bit,

FLEX, that controls whether the device exits RESET execut-

ing from the flash memory or the Boot ROM. The user must

program the FLEX bit as appropriate for the application. In

the erased state, the FLEX bit = 0 and the device will

power-up executing from Boot ROM. When FLEX = 0, this

assumes that either the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine or

external programming is being used to program the device. If

using the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine, the software in

the boot ROM will monitor the MICROWIRE/PLUS for com-

mands to program the flash memory. When programming

the flash program memory is complete, the FLEX bit will

have to be programmed to a 1 and the device will have to be

reset, either by pulling external Reset to ground or by a

MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP EXIT command, before execution

from flash program memory will occur.

If FLEX = 1, upon exiting Reset, the device will begin ex-

ecuting from location 0000 in the flash program memory. The

assumption, here, is that either the application is not using

ISP, is using MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP by jumping to it within

the application code, or is using a customized ISP routine. If

a customized ISP routine is being used, then it must be

programmed into the flash memory by means of the

MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP or external programming as de-

scribed in the preceding paragraph.

11.3 REGISTERS

There are six registers required to support ISP: Address

(ISPADLO), Read Data Register (ISPRD), Write Data Reg-

ister (ISPWR), Write Timing Register (PGMTIM), and the

Control Register (ISPCNTRL). The ISPCNTRL Register is

not available to the user.

11.3.1 ISP Address Registers

The address registers (ISPADHI & ISPADLO) are used to

specify the address of the byte of data being written or read.

For page erase operations, the address of the beginning of

the page should be loaded. For mass erase operations,

0000 must be placed into the address registers. When read-

ing the Option register, FFFF (hex) should be placed into the

address registers. Registers ISPADHI and ISPADLO are

cleared to 00 on Reset. These registers can be loaded from

either flash program memory or Boot ROM and must be

maintained for the entire duration of the operation.

Note: The actual memory address of the Option Register is

7FFF (hex), however the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routines

require the address FFFF (hex) to be used to read the

Option Register when the Flash Memory is secured.
