Analysis of the internal and external structure of the microcontroller (IV) [Copy link]

1. The third experiment

Last two times we did two experiments, both of which used the P1.0 pin to turn on the light. We can imagine: since P1.0 can turn on the light, can other pins do the same? Take a look at Figure 1, which is the description of the 8031 microcontroller pins. Next to P1.0 are P1.1, P1.2...P1.7. Can they all turn on the light? In addition to pins starting with P1, there are also pins starting with P0, P2, and P3. Count them, there are 32 pins in total. We have learned 7 pins before, and with these 32, there are 39. They all start with the letter P, but the numbers after them are different. Is there any connection between them? Can they all turn on the light? On our experimental board, in addition to P10, there are also P11P17, which are all connected to LEDs. Let's do an experiment below. The procedure is as follows:

MAIN: MOV P1, #0FFH LCALL DELAY MOV P1, #00H LCALL DELAY LJMP MAIN DELAY: MOV R7, #250 D1: MOV R6, #250 D2: DJNZ R6, D2 DJNZ R7, D1 RET END

Convert this program into machine code and use a programmer to write it into the chip. What is the result? After power on, we can see that all 8 LEDs are flashing. Therefore, P10-P17 can all light up the lamp. In fact, all the 32 pins starting with P can light up the lamp, that is to say, these 32 pins can be used as outputs. If they are not used to light up the LED, they can be used to control the relay or other actuators. Program analysis: This program is different from the previous one in only two places: the first sentence: originally SETB P1.0, now changed to MOV P1, #0FFH, the third sentence: originally CLR P1.0, now changed to MOV P1.0, #00H. It can be seen that P1 is the representative of P1.0P1.7 as a whole, and one P1 represents all eight pins. Of course, the instruction used is different, the MOV instruction is used. Why use this instruction? Look at Figure 2, we regard P1 as a whole, and treat it as a memory unit. The MOV instruction can be used to send a number to a unit.

2. The fourth experiment

In addition to being used as output, what else can these 32 pins be used for? Let's do another experiment. The procedure is as follows:

MAIN: MOV P3, #0FFH LOOP：MOV A，P3 MOV P1, A LJMP LOOP

Let's take a look at the results of the experiment: all the lights are off, then I press a button, the ()th light turns on, then I press another button, the ()th light turns on, and when I release the button, the light turns off. Based on this experimental phenomenon and the circuit, let's analyze the program. From the connection of the hardware circuit, we can see that there are four buttons connected to P3 port P32, P33, P34, P35. We can guess the purpose of the first instruction: to make all P3 ports high level. The second instruction is MOV A, P3, where MOV has been seen, which means to send a number. This instruction means to send the number in P3 port to A. We can regard A as an intermediate unit (see Figure 3). The third sentence is to send the number in A to P1 port again. The fourth sentence is a loop, which means to repeat this process continuously. We have seen this. When we press the first button, the (3)th light is on, so P12 port should output a low level. Why does P12 port output a low level? Let's see what is sent to P1 port. Only the number from P3 port is sent to A and then sent to P1 port. Therefore, it must be the number from P3 port that makes P12 output a high level. The button of the P32 bit of the P3 port is pressed, making the level of the P32 bit low. Through the program, the P12 port outputs a low level, so the P3 port plays an input role. Verification: Pressing the second, third, and fourth buttons, and pressing 2, 3, and 4 buttons at the same time can get the same conclusion, so the P3 port does play an input role. In this way, we can see that the pins starting with the letter P can be used not only as outputs, but also as inputs. Can other pins be used as inputs? Yes, they can. These 32 pins are called parallel ports. Let's analyze the structure of the parallel port and see how it realizes input and output.

3. Parallel port structure analysis:

1. Output structure First, let's look at the structural diagram of one bit of P1 port (only the output part is drawn): As can be seen from the figure, the opening and closing of the switch represents the high and low output of the pin. If the switch is closed, the pin output is low, and if the switch is open, the output is high. This switch is controlled by a line. This data bus comes from the CPU. Let us recall that the data bus is a common line for everyone. Many devices are connected to it. At different times, different devices certainly need different signals. For example, at a certain moment, we let this pin output a high level and require it to be maintained for a certain period of time. During this time, the computer is of course busy and communicating with other devices. The level on this control line may not be able to maintain the original value, and the output will change. How to solve this problem? We learned in the memory section that the memory can store charges. We might as well add a small memory unit and add a switch in front of it. When you want this bit to output, turn on the switch, the signal enters the memory unit, and then immediately turn off the switch. In this way, the state of this bit is saved until the next command asks it to turn the switch on again. In this way, the state of this bit will be independent of other devices. We give such a small unit a very vivid name, calling it "latch".

2. Input structure This is a schematic diagram of the output structure of a parallel port. In addition to the output, there are two lines, one connected from the external pin and the other connected from the output of the latch, marked as read pin and read latch respectively. These two lines are used to receive signals from the outside. Why are there two? It turns out that there are two ways to input in the 51 microcontroller, called "read pin" and "read latch". The first way is to use the pin as input, which is to actually read the input value from the external pin. The second way is that when the pin is in the output state, sometimes the state of this bit needs to be changed. In this case, it is not necessary to actually read the pin state, but only read the state of the latch, and then make some changes before outputting. Please pay attention to the input structure diagram. If this lead is used as an input port, we cannot guarantee that we can get the correct result at any time (why?). Refer to the input diagram in Figure 2. If the switch connected to the outside is open, it should be input 1, and if the switch is closed, it should be input 0. However, if the switch inside the microcontroller is closed, then no matter whether the external switch is open or closed, the data received by the microcontroller is 0. It can be seen that in order to use this port as an input, a "preparation" must be done first, that is, to disconnect the internal switch first, that is, to let the port output "1". Because of this preparation, we call it a "quasi-bidirectional I/O port".

The above is the structure of one bit of port P1. The structures of the other bits of port P1 are the same. The other three ports: P0, P2, and P3 have other uses besides input and output, so the structure is slightly more complicated, but the structure for input and output is the same. See the figure (). For us, these additional functions do not need to be controlled by us, so we don't care about it.
