Chapter 8 Serial and Parallel Port
Interfacing
Valvano’s Intro. To Embedded
Systems
8.1 General Intro. To Interfacing
• Three Components
– Mechanical Design of the Physical
Components (Selection of the parts.)
– Analog and Digital electronics used to
connect the physical devices.
– Low-Level Software (transforms the
mechanical and electrical devices into objects
that perform the desired tasks.
9S12 Interfacing
• 9s12 is built using CMOS
– Involves consideration of voltage, current, and
capacitance.
Digital Output
• IOH—largest current a port pin can source
when the output is high.
• VOH—smallest voltage a port pin can be if
the output is high.
• VDD—the power into the microcontroller
• Output High Voltage is between VDD and
VOH.
Digital Output (cont.)
• IOL—the largest current a port pin can
sink when the output is low.
• VOL—the largest voltage a port pin can be
if the output is low and the current is less
than IOL (the output low voltage will be
between 0 and VOL.
Digital Inputs
• IIH – the current the input will require
when the input is high.
• VIH—the voltage above which the input is
considered high.
• IIL—the current the input will require when
the input is low.
• VIL – voltage below which the input will be
considered low.
Capacitance
• Capacitance loading occurs with each
input and with long cables.
– Input— C=6pF
– Time constant CxR where R is the resistance
in the interface circuit.
– Example: V(t) = 5 – 5 exp(-t/RC)
• Output of one circuit is attached to the input of
another.
• If output goes from 0 to +5volts, the voltage is
perceived as V(t)
Device Driver
• A collection of software functions that
allow higher level software to utilize an I/O
device.
• Glossary definition( page 517): A
collection of software routines that perform
I/O functions.
8.2 Serial Communications
Interface, SCI
• Protocol is same as a UART.
• Old, but still in use on modern
microcontrollers.
• 8.2.1 discusses the RS232 Protocol.
• 8.2.2 discusses the transmission of an
asynchronous character.
• 8.2.3 discusses the reception of an
asynchronous character.
8.2.4 9S12 SCI Details
• The C32 has one SCI port and the DP512
has two ports.
• SCIDRL—SCI Data Register Low byte
– Transmit Data Register (Figure 8.3)
– Receive Data Register ( Figure 8.4)
– SCIBD—(SCI0BD,SCI1BD)—baud rate
register.
SCI Baud Rate
• SCI Baud Rate Control Register
– M—mode bit selects 8-bit (0) or 9-bit(1) data
frames.
– A frame always has a start bit and 1 or 2 stop
bits.
– Baud rate—total number of bits/second
– SCI Baud Rate= Mclk/16*BR
• BR is in bits 12:0 of the SCIBD
• Mclk is the module clock—typically the same as E
clock.

TE(bit 3) --transmit enable.
RE(bit 2) –receive enable.
TIE(bit 7) –transmit interrupt enable.
TCIE(bit 6) – transmit complete interrupt enable.
RIE(bit 5)—receiver interrupt enable.
ILIE (bit 4)—idle line interrupt enable
RWU(bit 1)—recever wakeup control bit.
SBK(bit 0)– send break bit
Table 8.4 (cont.)
• SCICR1
– Loops (bit 7) –enables loop mode.
– RSRC (bit 5)—receiver source (when
loops=1)
– M (bit 4)—mode bit.
– WAKE (bit 3)-wake on idle line or msb
– ILT (bit 2) – idle line type (for the receiver)
– PE (bit 1)– parity enable.
– PT (bit 0)—parity type (0 for even parity)

• SCISR1—SCI status register 1.

TDRE—(bit 7) –transmit data register empty.
TC—(bit 6)—transmit complete flag.
RDRF—(bit 5)—Receive Data Register Full
IDLE—(bit 4)—idle line detected
OR—(bit 3)—overrun error
NF—(bit 2) –noise flag (set if 3 samples are not the
same for a received bit.)
– FE—(bit 1)—frame error (set when no stop bit is
detected.)
– PF—(bit 0)—parity flag; (set when parity violation is
found and PE bit is set.)
Table 8.4
• SCISR2—SCI status register 2
– Contains two mode control bits and one
status bit.
• BRK13 (Bit 2)—Break Transmit Character Length
• TXDIR (Bit 1)—Transmitter Pin Data Direction
• RAF (BIT 0)—Receiver Active Flag
Busy-Waiting
• Same as gadfly or polling.
• Software continuously checks the
hardware status, waiting for it to be ready.
• Figure 8.6(page 293)—Flow Charts.
8.3 Serial (Synchronous)
Peripheral Interface
• Faster than SCI for interconnecting boards
and a PC.
8.3.1 SPI Fundamentals
• SPI used to attach additional I/O devices
(such as A/D’s and D/AC’s).
• SPI implements a synchronous protocol.
– Same clock is used.
8.3.1 SPI (cont.)
• Freescale SPI—4 I/O lines
– Slave Select --NOT–optional negative logic
control signal.
– SClk—50% duty cycle clock generated by the
master.
– MISO—master in, slave out data line.
– MOSI—master out, slave in data line.
SPI (cont.)
– Transmitting device uses one edge of the
clock for changing data, and the receiving
device uses the other edge.
• Controlled by CPOL(BIT 3) and CPHA(BIT 2) of
the SPICR1
• See Figures 8.7 and 8.8 on page 295.
• Pages 296-298 has more details.
8.3.4 8-bit DAC Interface
• Example 8.2 Design an 8-bit DAC with
range of 0 to +5.
8.4 Scanned Keyboards
• Switches are placed in a row/column
matrix.
• Fig. 8.12 (pg. 301) illustrates a matrix
keyboard.
• Computer drives one row at a time.
• Columns are read to determine which key
is pressed.
8.5 Parallel Port LCD Interface with
the HD44780 Controller
• The HD44780 Controller is an industry
standard for interfacing to a Liquid Crystal
Display.
• ASCII characters can be written to the
HD44780 controller.
• The ASCII character will be mapped onto
the display as a 5 by 8 bit pixel image.
8.6 Binary Actuators
• Relays, solenoids, and DC motors have
electrical interfaces that are similar.
8.7 Pulse-Width Modulation
• PWM can be used to deliver power in a
variable manner.
• The Duty Cycle can vary
– Duty = (H)/(H+L) (the fraction of the time that
the signal is high.
– Where H is the time that the signal is high.
– And L is the time that the signal is low.
– Figure 8.21 illustrates the wave forms.
8.8 Stepper Motors
• Evaluation of a motor:
– Maximum speed (RPM)
– Torque
– Efficiency of translating electrical power into
mechanical power
Stepper Motors (cont.)
• Stepper Motors—control the rotational
position.
• Used in applications where precise
positioning is more important than speed,
torque, or efficiency.
