3. Introduction

Cypress has reinvented its leadership position in the low speed

USB market with a new family of innovative microcontrollers.

Introducing enCoRe II USB - “enhanced Component Reduction.”

Cypress has leveraged its design expertise in USB solutions to

advance its family of low speed USB microcontrollers, which

enable peripheral developers to design new products with a

minimum number of components. The enCoRe II USB

technology builds on the enCoRe family. The enCoRe family has

an integrated oscillator that eliminates the external crystal or

resonator, reducing overall cost. Also integrated into this chip are

other external components commonly found in low speed USB

applications, such as pull up resistors, wakeup circuitry, and a

3.3V regulator. Integrating these components reduces the

overall system cost.
The enCoRe II is an 8-bit Flash programmable microcontroller

with an integrated low speed USB interface. The instruction set

is optimized specifically for USB and PS/2 operations, although

the microcontrollers may be used for a variety of other embedded

applications.
The enCoRe II features up to 20 GPIO pins to support USB,

PS/2, and other applications. The IO pins are grouped into four

ports (Port 0 to 3). The pins on Port 0 and Port 1 may each be

configured individually while the pins on Ports 2 and 3 are

configured only as a group. Each GPIO port supports high

impedance inputs, configurable pull up, open drain output,

CMOS/TTL inputs, and CMOS output with up to five pins that

support a programmable drive strength of up to 50 mA sink

current. GPIO Port 1 features four pins that interface at a voltage

level of 3.3V. Additionally, each IO pin may be used to generate

a GPIO interrupt to the microcontroller. Each GPIO port has its

own GPIO interrupt vector; in addition, GPIO Port 0 has three

dedicated pins that have independent interrupt vectors (P0.2 -

P0.4).
The enCoRe II features an internal oscillator. With the presence

of USB traffic, the internal oscillator may be set to precisely tune

to USB timing requirements (24 MHz ±1.5%). Optionally, an

external 12 MHz or 24 MHz clock is used to provide a higher

precision reference for USB operation. The clock generator

provides the 12 MHz and 24 MHz clocks that remain internal to

the microcontroller. The enCoRe II also has a 12-bit program-

mable interval timer and a 16-bit Free Running Timer with

Capture Timer registers. In addition, the enCoRe II includes a

Watchdog timer and a vectored interrupt controller.
The enCoRe II has up to eight Kbytes of Flash for user code and

up to 256 bytes of RAM for stack space and user variables.
The power on reset circuit detects logic when power is applied

to the device, resets the logic to a known state, and begins

executing instructions at Flash address 0x0000. When power

falls below a programmable trip voltage, it generates a reset or

may be configured to generate an interrupt. There is a low

voltage detect circuit that detects when V

CC

drops below a

programmable trip voltage. It is configurable to generate an LVD

interrupt to inform the processor about the low voltage event.

POR and LVD share the same interrupt. There is no separate

interrupt for each. The Watchdog timer may be used to ensure

the firmware never gets stalled in an infinite loop.

The microcontroller supports 22 maskable interrupts in the

vectored interrupt controller. Interrupt sources include a USB bus

reset, LVR/POR, a programmable interval timer, a 1.024 ms

output from the free-running timer, three USB endpoints, two

capture timers, four GPIO Ports, three Port 0 pins, two SPI, a

16-bit free running timer wrap, an internal sleep timer, and a bus

active interrupt. The sleep timer causes periodic interrupts when

enabled. The USB endpoints interrupt after a USB transaction

complete is on the bus. The capture timers interrupt when a new

timer value is saved because of a selected GPIO edge event. A

total of seven GPIO interrupts support both TTL or CMOS

thresholds. For additional flexibility on the edge sensitive GPIO

pins, the interrupt polarity is programmed as rising or falling.
The free-running 16-bit timer provides two interrupt sources: the

1.024 ms outputs and the free running counter wrap interrupt.

The programmable interval timer provides up to 1

μsec

resolution and provides an interrupt every time it expires. These

timers are used to measure the duration of an event under

firmware control by reading the desired timer at the start and at

the end of an event, then calculating the difference between the

two values. The two 8-bit capture timer registers save a

programmable 8-bit range of the free-running timer when a GPIO

edge occurs on the two capture pins (P0.5, P0.6). The two 8-bit

captures may be ganged into a single 16-bit capture.
The enCoRe II includes an integrated USB serial interface

engine (SIE) that allows the chip to easily interface to a USB

host. The hardware supports one USB device address with three

endpoints.
The USB D+ and D– pins are optionally used as PS/2 SCLK and

SDATA signals so that products are designed to respond to

either USB or PS/2 modes of operation. The PS/2 operation is

supported with internal 5 K

Ω pull up resistors on P1.0 (D+) and

P1.1 (D–), and an interrupt to signal the start of PS/2 activity. In

USB mode, the integrated 1.5 K

Ω pull up resistor on D– may be

controlled under firmware. No external components are

necessary for dual USB and PS/2 systems, and no GPIO pins

need to be dedicated to switching between modes.
The enCoRe II supports in system programming by using the D+

and D– pins as the serial programming mode interface. The

programming protocol is not USB.
