TERMINOLOGY
• Microcontroller vs. Microprocessor vs. Microcomputer
• A microprocessor is a central processing unit on a
single chip.
• A microprocessor combined with support circuitry ,
peripheral I/O components and memory (RAM &
ROM) used to be called a “microcomputer.”
• A microprocessor where all the components
mentioned above are combined on the same single
chip that the microprocessor is on, is called a
microcontroller.
• We will be using the ATMEGA 8 microcontroller.
MICROCONTROLLER
ARCHITECTURE
MICRCONTROLLER
ARCHITECTURE
1: CPU -- fetches the instructions stored in the program memory, decodes
them, and executes them. The CPU itself is composed of registers the
arithmetic logic unit, the instruction decoder and control circuitry.
2: PROGRAM MEMORY: The program memory stores the instructions that
form the program. To accommodate larger programs, the program
memory may be partitioned as internal program memory and external
program memory (in some controllers). Program memory is usually
nonvolatile and is of EEPROM, EPROM, Flash, or OTP (one-time
programmable) type. [EEPROM for Atmega8].
3: RAM: The RAM is the data memory of the controller. The CPU uses
RAM to store variables as well as the stack. The stack is used by the
CPU to store return addresses from where to resume execution after it
has completed a subroutine or an interrupt call.
MICRCONTROLLER
ARCHITECTURE
4: CLOCK OSCILLATOR: The controller executes the program out of the program
memory at a certain rate. This rate is determined by the frequency of the clock
oscillator. The clock oscillator could be an internal RC-oscillator [this is the case
for the Atmega 8], or an oscillator with an external timing element, such as a
quartz crystal or RC circuit. As soon as power is applied to the controller, the
oscillator starts operating.
5: RESET AND BROWNOUT DETECTOR CIRCUIT: The reset circuit in the
controller ensures that at startup all the components and control circuits
in the controller start at a predefined initial state and all the required
registers are initialized properly.
The brownout detector is a circuit that monitors the power supply voltage,
and if there is a momentary drop in voltage, resets the processor so that
the drop in voltage does not corrupt register and memory contents, which
could lead to faulty operations.
MICRCONTROLLER
ARCHITECTURE
6: SERIAL PORT: The serial port can operate at any required data transfer speed. The serial
port takes data bytes from the controller and shifts out the data one bit at a time to the
output. Similarly, it accepts external data a bit at a time, makes a byte out of 8 such bits, and
presents this to the controller.
7: DIGITAL I/O PORT: The microcontroller uses the digital I/O components to exchange digital
data with the outside world. Compared to the serial port, which transfers data a bit at a
time, the data from the I/O port is exchanged as bytes.
8: ANALOG I/O PORT: Analog input is performed using an analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
The controller could be equipped with an integrated ADC or an analog comparator [the
Atmega 8 has both (?)] , which is used under software control to perform A-to-D
conversion. ADC’s are used to acquire senor data from devices such as temperature
sensors and photocells. Such sensors often produce proportional analog voltage data.
Analog output is performed using a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) [must be externally
in case of Atmega 8].
Most controllers are equipped with pulse-width modulators that can be used to get analog
voltage with a suitable external RC filter [this is the case for the Atmega8]. DAC’s are
used to drive motors, to generate sound, for visual displays.. (dimming LED’s).
[SENSORS assignment].
MICRCONTROLLER
ARCHITECTURE
9: TIMER: The timer is used by the controller to time events. The timer can also be used as a
counter.
10: WATCHDOG TIMER: A watchdog timer (WDT) is a special timer with a specific function. It is
usually used to prevent software crashes. It works as follows: Once armed, the WDT
increments an internal counter at some rate. If the user program does not reset the counter,
the counter overflows, which is used to reset the controller. .. . The assumption is that if the
user program does not reset the WDT, it has failed in some way and therefore rather than
system crash or unpredictable system performance, it is better to reset the system.
11: RTC: A real time clock (RTC) is a special timer with the task of maintaining time of day, date
etc.. . It can be used to time-stamp events [must be externally added to Atmega8].
------------------------------------------------Like microprocessors, microcontrollers are classified as 8-bit, 16-bit, etc.. . This refers to the
width of the internal registers and the accumulator.
An 8-bit system usually also means that the CPU connects to the various chip component
through an 8-bit data path.

ARCHITECTURE
FROM ATMEGA8
Datasheet.
In order to maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR uses a Harvard architecture
– with separate memories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the Program
memory are executed with a single level pipelining. While one instruction is being executed,
the next instruction is pre-fetched from the Program memory. This concept
enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The Program memory is InSystem Reprogrammable Flash memory.
The fast-access Register File contains 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with
a single clock cycle access time. This allows single-cycle Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
operation. In a typical ALU operation, two operands are output from the Register File,
the operation is executed, and the result is stored back in the Register File – in one
clock cycle.
Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers for
Data Space addressing – enabling efficient address calculations. One of the these
address pointers can also be used as an address pointer for look up tables in Flash Program
memory. These added function registers are the 16-bit X-, Y-, and Z-register,
described later in this section.
The ALU supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant
and a register. Single register operations can also be executed in the ALU. After
an arithmetic operation, the Status Register is updated to reflect information about the
result of the operation.
The Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions,
able to directly address the whole address space. Most AVR instructions have a
single 16-bit word format. Every Program memory address contains a 16- or 32-bit
instruction.
Program Flash memory space is divided in two sections, the Boot program section and
the Application program section. Both sections have dedicated Lock Bits for write and
read/write protection. The SPM instruction that writes into the Application Flash memory
section must reside in the Boot program section.
During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address Program Counter (PC) is
stored on the Stack. The Stack is effectively allocated in the general data SRAM, and
consequently the Stack size is only limited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the
SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in the reset routine (before subroutines
or interrupts are executed). The Stack Pointer SP is read/write accessible in the I/O
space. The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the five different addressing
modes supported in the AVR architecture.
The memory spaces in the AVR architecture are all linear and regular memory maps.
A flexible interrupt module has its control registers in the I/O space with an additional
global interrupt enable bit in the Status Register. All interrupts have a separate Interrupt
Vector in the Interrupt Vector table. The interrupts have priority in accordance with their
Interrupt Vector position. The lower the Interrupt Vector address, the higher the priority.
The I/O memory space contains 64 addresses for CPU peripheral functions as Control
Registers, SPI, and other I/O functions. The I/O Memory can be accessed directly, or as
the Data Space locations following those of the Register File, 0x20 - 0x5F.
