Digital Control Signals

The reset, synchronization, and timebreak signals to the CS5376A digital filter can be generated by push
buttons, received from external inputs or generated by the on-board microcontroller. By default, the push
button RESET_PB, SYNC_PB, and TIMEB_PB signals are connected through the interface CPLD to the
CS5376A digital filter RESET, SYNC, and TIMEB inputs.

A four-position DIP switch on CDB5374 (S5) sets static digital control signals not normally changed during
operation. The BOOT signal (S5, #1) controls how the CS5374A digital filter receives configuration data,
either from a microcontroller or serial EEPROM.

Microcontroller

Included on CDB5374 is an 8051-type microcontroller with integrated hardware SPI and USB interfaces.
This C8051F320 microcontroller is a product of Silicon Laboratories (

http://www.silabs.com

). Key features

of the C8051F320 microcontroller are:

8051 compatibility – uses industry-standard 8051 software development tools

In-circuit debugger – software development on the target hardware

Internal memory – 16k flash ROM and 2k static RAM included on-chip

Multiple serial connections – SPI, USB, I

2

C, and UART

High performance – 25 MIPS maximum

Low power – 0.6 mA @ 1 MHz w/o USB, 9 mA @ 12 MHz with USB

Small size – 32 pin LQFP package, 9mm x 9mm

Industrial temperature – full performance (including USB) from -40 C to +85 C

Internal temperature sensor – with range violation interrupt capability

Internal timers – four general purpose plus one extended capability

Power on reset – can supply a reset signal to external devices

Analog ADC – 10-bit, 200 kSps SAR with internal voltage reference

Analog comparators – arbitrary high/low voltage compare with interrupt capability

The exact use of these features is controlled by embedded firmware.

C8051F320 has dedicated pins for power and the USB connection, plus 25 general-purpose I/O pins that
connect to the various internal resources through a programmable crossbar. Hardware connections on
CDB5374 limit how the blocks can operate, so the port mapping of microcontroller resources is detailed
below.
