Introduction"></a> <h1>1. Introduction</h1> The openMSP430 is a 16-bit microcontroller core compatible with TI's MSP430 family (note that the extended version of the architecture, the MSP430X, isn't supported by this IP). It is based on a Von Neumann architecture, with a single address space for instructions and data. <br /><br /> This design has been implemented to be FPGA friendly. Therefore, the core doesn't contain any clock gate and has only a single clock domain. As a consequence, the clock management block has a few limitations. <br /><br /> This IP doesn't contain the instruction and data memory blocks internally (these are technology dependent hard macros which are connected to the IP during chip integration). However the core is fully configurable in regard to the supported RAM and/or ROM sizes. <br /><br /> In addition to the CPU core itself, several peripherals are also provided and can be easily connected to the core during integration. <br /><br /> <a name="2.

It also contains the execution state machine.</li> <li><b>Execution unit</b>: Containing the ALU and the register file, this module executes the current decoded instruction according to the execution state.</li> <li><b>Serial Debug Interface</b>: Contains all the required logic for a Nexus class 3 debugging unit (without trace). Communication with the host is done with a standard 8N1 serial interface.</li> <li><b>Memory backbone</b>: This block performs a simple arbitration between the frontend and execution-unit for program, data and peripheral memory access.</li> <li><b>Basic Clock Module</b>: Generates the ACLK and SMCLK enable signals.</li> <li><b>SFRs</b>: The <b>S</b>pecial <b>F</b>unction <b>R</b>egister<b>s</b> block contain diverse configuration registers (NMI, Watchdog, ...).</li> <li><b>Watchdog</b>: Although it is a peripheral, the watchdog is permanently included in the core because of its tight links with the NMI interrupts and the PUC reset generation.</li> </ul> <a name="2.1.2 Limitations"></a> <h3>2.1.2 Limitations</h3> The known core limitations are the following: <br /> <ul> <li>Instructions can't be executed from the data memory.</li> <li>SCG0 is not implemented (turns off DCO).</li> <li>MCLK can't be divided and can only have DCO_CLK as source (see <a href="#2.2.1 Basic Clock Module">Basic Clock Module</a> section).</li> </ul> <a name="2.1.3 Configuration"></a> <h3>2.1.3 Configuration</h3> It is possible to configure the openMSP430 core through the "openMSP430_defines.v" file located in the "rtl" directory (see <a href="http://www.opencores.org/project,openmsp430,file%20and%20directory%20description">file and directory description</a>).<br /> Two sets of parameters can be adjusted by the user in order to define the program and data memory sizes: <br /><br /> <table border="0" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="35"></td> <td bgcolor="#d0d0d0" width="3"></td> <td width="15"></td> <td> <code> // Program Memory Size: <br />// Uncomment the required memory size <br />//------------------------------------------------------- <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_59_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_55_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_54_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_51_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_48_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_41_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_32_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_24_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_16_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_12_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_8_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_4_KB <br />`define PMEM_SIZE_2_KB <br />//`define PMEM_SIZE_1_KB <br /> <br />// Data Memory Size: <br />// Uncomment the required memory size <br />//------------------------------------------------------- <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_32_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_24_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_16_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_10_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_8_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_5_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_4_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_2p5_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_2_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_1_KB <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_512_B <br />//`define DMEM_SIZE_256_B <br />`define DMEM_SIZE_128_B </code> </td> </tr> </table> <br /><br /> <b>Note:</b> The sum of both program and data memories <b>SHOULD NOT</b> exceed 63.5 kB. <br /><br /><br /> The following parameters define if the debug interface should be included or not and how many hardware breakpoint units should be included. <br /><br /> <table border="0" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="35"></td> <td bgcolor="#d0d0d0" width="3"></td> <td width="15"></td> <td> <code> //---------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br />// REMOTE DEBUGGING INTERFACE CONFIGURATION <br />//---------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br /> <br />// Include Debug interface <br />`define DBG_EN <br /> <br />// Debug interface selection <br />// `define DBG_UART -> Enable UART (8N1) debug interface <br />// `define DBG_JTAG -> DON'T UNCOMMENT, NOT SUPPORTED <br />// <br />`define DBG_UART <br />//`define DBG_JTAG <br /> <br />// Number of hardware breakpoints (each unit contains 2 hw address breakpoints) <br />// `define DBG_HWBRK_0 -> Include hardware breakpoints unit 0 <br />// `define DBG_HWBRK_1 -> Include hardware breakpoints unit 1 <br />// `define DBG_HWBRK_2 -> Include hardware breakpoints unit 2 <br />// `define DBG_HWBRK_3 -> Include hardware breakpoints unit 3 <br />// <br />`define DBG_HWBRK_0 <br />`define DBG_HWBRK_1 <br />`define DBG_HWBRK_2 <br />`define DBG_HWBRK_3 </code> </td> </tr> </table> <br /><br /> <b>Note:</b> Since the hardware breakpoint units are relatively big, it is recommended to include as many as you plan to use.

</table> <br /> <b>Note</b>: for the same reason as with the Basic Clock Module, the two additional clock inputs (TACLK and INCLK) are internally synchronized with the MCLK domain. As a consequence, TACLK and INCLK should be at least 2 times slowlier than MCLK, and if these clock are used toghether with the Timer A output unit, some jitter might be observed on the generated output. If this jitter is critical for the application, ACLK and INCLK should idealy be derivated from DCO_CLK. <br /><br /> <a name="2.2.5 16x16 Hardware Multiplier"></a> <h3>2.2.5 16x16 Hardware Multiplier</h3> 100% of the features advertised in the <a href="http://www.ti.com/litv/pdf/slau049f">MSP430x1xx Family User's Guide</a> (Chapter 7) have been implemented. <br /><br /> The following parameter in the <i>openMSP430_defines.v</i> file controls if the hardware multiplier should be included or not. <br /><br /> <table border="0" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="35"></td> <td bgcolor="#d0d0d0" width="3"></td> <td width="15"></td> <td> <code> // Include/Exclude Hardware Multiplier <br />`define MULTIPLIER </code> </td> </tr> </table> <br /><br /> <br /><br /> </body> </html>
