MEMORY ORGANIZATION
PROGRAM MEMORY: Up to 32 Kbytes of the program memory can reside in the on-chip EPROM. In addition
the device can address up to 64K of program memory external to the chip.
DATA MEMORY: This microcontroller has a 256 x 8 on-chip RAM. In addition it can address up to 64 Kbytes of
external data memory.
The Intel M87C51FC is a single-chip control-oriented microcontroller which is fabricated on Intel’s reliable
CHMOS III-E technology. Being a member of the MCS-51 family, the M87C51FC uses the same powerful
instruction set, has the same architecture, and is pin-for-pin compatible with the existing MCS-51 family of
products. The M87C51FC is an enhanced version of the 87C51. Its added features make it an even more
powerful microcontroller for applications that require Pulse Width Modulation, High Speed I/O, and up/down
counting capabilities such as motor control. It also has a more versatile serial channel that facilitates multi-
processor communications.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
VCC: Supply voltage.
VSS: Circuit ground.
Port 0: Port 0 is an 8-bit, open drain, bidirectional I/O
port. As an output port each pin can sink several LS
TTL inputs. Port 0 pins that have 1’s written to them
float, and in that state can be used as high-imped-
ance inputs.
Port 0 is also the multiplexed low-order address and
data bus during accesses to external Program and
Data Memory. In this application it uses strong inter-
nal pullups when emitting1’s, and can source and
sink several LS TTL inputs.
Port 0 also receives the code bytes during EPROM
programming, and outputs the code bytes during
program verification. External pullup resistors are re-
quired during program verification.
Port 1: Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with
internal pullups. The Port 1 output buffers can drive
LS TTL inputs. Port 1 pins that have 1’s written to
them are pulled high by the internal pullups, and in
that state can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 1
pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL, on the data sheet) because of the inter-
nal pullups.
In addition, Port 1 serves the functions of the follow-
ing special features of the M87C51FC:
Port Pin Alternate Function
P1.0 T2 (External Count Input to Timer/
Counter 2), Clock-Out
P1.1 T2EX (Timer/Counter 2 Capture/
Reload Trigger and Direction Control)
P1.2 ECI (External Count Input to the PCA)
P1.3 CEX0 (External I/O for Compare/
Capture Module 0)
P1.4 CEX1 (External I/O for Compare/
Capture Module 1)
P1.5 CEX2 (External I/O for Compare/
Capture Module 2)
P1.6 CEX3 (External I/O for Compare/
Capture Module 3)
P1.7 CEX4 (External I/O for Compare/
Capture Module 4)
Port 1 receives the low-order address bytes during
EPROM programming and verifying.
Port 2: Port 2 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with
internal pullups. The Port 2 output buffers can drive
LS TTL inputs. Port 2 pins that have 1’s written to
them are pulled high by the internal pullups, and in
that state can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 2
pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL, on the data sheet) because of the inter-
nal pullups.

M87C51FC
Port 2 emits the high-order address byte during
fetches from external Program Memory and during
accesses to external Data Memory that use 16-bit
addresses (MOVX @DPTR). In this application it
uses strong internal pullups when emitting 1’s. Dur-
ing accesses to external Data Memory that use 8-bit
addresses (MOVX @Ri), Port 2 emits the contents of
the P2 Special Function Register.
Some Port 2 pins receive the high-order address bits
during EPROM programming and program verifica-
tion.
Port 3: Port 3 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with
internal pullups. The Port 3 output buffers can drive
LS TTL inputs. Port 3 pins that have 1’s written to
them are pulled high by the internal pullups, and in
that state can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 3
pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL, on the data sheet) because of the pull-
ups.
Port 3 also serves the functions of various special
features of the MCS-51 Family, as listed below:
Port Pin Alternate Function
P3.0 RXD (serial input port)
P3.1 TXD (serial output port)
P3.2 INT0 (external interrupt 0)
P3.3 INT1 (external interrupt 1)
P3.4 T0 (Timer 0 external input)
P3.5 T1 (Timer 1 external input)
P3.6 WR (external data memory write strobe)
P3.7 RD (external data memory read strobe)
Some Port 3 pins receive the high-order address bits
during EPROM programming and program verifica-
tion.
RST: Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine
cycles while the oscillator is running resets the de-
vice. An internal pulldown resistor permits a power-
on reset with only a capacitor connected to VCC.
ALE: Address Latch Enable output pulse for latching
the low byte of the address during accesses to ex-
ternal memory. This pin (ALE/PROG) is also the
program pulse input during EPROM programming for
the M87C51FC.
In normal operation ALE is emitted at a constant
rate of (/6 the oscillator frequency, and may be used
for external timing or clocking purposes. Note, how-
ever, that one ALE pulse is skipped during each ac-
cess to external Data Memory.
Throughout the remainder of this data sheet, ALE
will refer to the signal coming out of the ALE/PROG
pin, and the pin will be referred to as the ALE/PROG
pin.
PSEN: Program Store Enable is the read strobe to
external Program Memory.
When the M87C51FC is executing code from exter-
nal Program Memory, PSEN is activated twice each
machine cycle, except that two PSEN activations
are skipped during each access to external Data
Memory.
EA/VPP: External Access enable. EA must be
strapped to VSS in order to enable the device to
fetch code from external Program Memory locations
0000H to 0FFFFH. Note, however, that if either of
the Program Lock bits are programmed, EA will be
internally latched on reset.
EA should be strapped to VCC for internal program
executions.
This pin also receives the programming supply volt-
age (VPP) during EPROM programming.
XTAL1: Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier.
XTAL2: Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.
OSCILLATOR CHARACTERISTICS
XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output, respec-
tively, of a inverting amplifier which can be config-
ured for use as an on-chip oscillator, as shown in
Figure 3. Either a quartz crystal or ceramic resonator
may be used. More detailed information concerning
the use of the on-chip oscillator is available in Appli-
cation Note AP-155, ‘‘Oscillators for Microcontrol-
lers.’’
To drive the device from an external clock source,
XTAL1 should be driven, while XTAL2 floats, as
shown in Figure 4. There are no requirements on the
duty cycle of the external clock signal, since the in-
put to the internal clocking circuitry is through a di-
vide-by-two flip-flop, but minimum and maximum
high and low times specified on the data sheet must
be observed.
An external oscillator may encounter as much as a
100 pF load at XTAL1 when it starts up. This is due
to interaction between the amplifier and its feedback
capacitance. Once the external signal meets the VIL
and VIH specifications the capacitance will not ex-
ceed 20 pF.

Figure 4. External Clock Drive Configuration
IDLE MODE
The user’s software can invoke the Idle Mode. When
the microcontroller is in this mode, power consump-
tion is reduced. The Special Function Registers and
the onboard RAM retain their values during Idle, but
the processor stops executing instructions. Idle
Mode will be exited if the chip is reset or if an en-
abled interrupt occurs. The PCA timer/counter can
optionally be left running or paused during Idle
Mode.
POWER DOWN MODE
To save even more power, a Power Down mode can
be invoked by software. In this mode, the oscillator
is stopped and the instruction that invoked Power
Down is the last instruction executed. The on-chip
RAM and Special Function Registers retain their val-
ues until the Power Down mode is terminated.
On the M87C51FC either a hardware reset or an
external interrupt can cause an exit from Power
Down. Reset redefines all the SFRs but does not
change the on-chip RAM. An external interrupt al-
lows both the SFRs and on-chip RAM to retain their
values.
To properly terminate Power down the reset or ex-
ternal interrupt should not be executed before VCC is
restored to its normal operating level and must be
held active long enough for the oscillator to restart
and stabilize (normally less than 10 ms).
With an external interrupt, INT0 and INT1 must be
enabled and configured as level-sensitive. Holding
the pin low restarts the oscillator but bringing the pin
back high completes the exit. Once the interrupt is
serviced, the next instruction to be executed after
RETI will be the one following the instruction that put
the device into Power Down.
DESIGN CONSIDERATION
#The window on the M87C51FC must be covered
by an opaque label. Otherwise, the DC and AC
characteristics may not be met, and the device
may functionally be impaired.
#When the idle mode is terminated by a hardware
reset, the device normally resumes program exe-
cution, from where it left off, up to two machine
cycles before the internal reset algorithm takes
control. On-chip hardware inhibits access to inter-
nal RAM in this event, but access to the port pins
is not inhibited. To eliminate the possibility of an
unexpected write when Idle is terminated by re-
set, the instruction following the one that invokes
Idle should not be one that writes to a port pin or
to external memory.
ONCE MODE
The ONCE (‘‘On-Circuit Emulation’’) Mode facilitates
testing and debugging of systems using the
M87C51FC without the M87C51FC having to be re-
moved from the circuit. The ONCE Mode is invoked
by:
1) Pull ALE low while the device is in reset and
PSEN is high;
2) Hold ALE low as RST is deactivated.
While the device is in ONCE Mode, the Port 0 pins
go into a float state, and the other port pins and ALE
and PSEN are weakly pulled high. The oscillator cir-
cuit remains active. While the M87C51FC is in this
mode, an emulator or test CPU can be used to drive
the circuit. Normal operation is restored when a nor-
mal reset is applied.

NOTES:
1. Capacitive loading on Ports 0 and 2 may cause spurious noise pulses to be superimposed on the VOLs of ALE and Ports
1, 2 and 3. The noise is due to external bus capacitance discharging into the Port 0 and Port 2 pins when these pins make 1
to 0 transitions during bus operations. In applications where capacitance loading exceeds 100 pFs, the noise pulse on the
ALE signal may exceed 0.8V. In these cases, it may be desirable to qualify ALE with a Schmitt Trigger, or use an Address
Latch with a Schmitt Trigger Strobe input.
2. Capacitive loading on Ports 0 and 2 cause the VOH on ALE and PSEN to drop below the 0.9 VCC specification when the
address lines are stabilizing.
3. See Figures 69 for load circuits. Minimum VCC for Power Down is 2V.
4. Under steady state (non-transient) conditions, IOL must be externally limited as follows:
Maximum IOL per port pin: 10mA
Maximum IOL per 8-bit portÐ
Port 0: 26 mA
Ports 1, 2 and 3: 15 mA
Maximum total IOL for all output pins: 71 mA
If IOL exceeds the test condition, VOL may exceed the related specification. Pins are not guaranteed to sink current greater
than the listed test conditions.

PROGRAMMING THE EPROM
The part must be running with a 4 MHz to 6 MHz
oscillator. The address of an EPROM location to be
programmed is applied to address lines while the
code byte to be programmed in that location is ap-
plied to data lines. Control and program signals must
be held at the levels indicated in Table 2. Normally
EA/VPP is held at logic high until just before ALE/
PROG is to be pulsed. The EA/VPP is raised to VPP,
ALE/PROG is pulsed low and then EA/VPP is re-
turned to a high (also refer to timing diagrams).
NOTE:
Exceeding the VPP maximum for any amount of
time could damage the device permanently. The
VPP source must be well regulated and free of
glitches.

PROGRAMMING ALGORITHM
Refer to Table 2 and Figures 10 and 11 for address,
data, and control signals set up. To program the
M87C51FC the following sequence must be exer-
cised.
1. Input the valid address on the address lines.
2. Input the appropriate data byte on the data
lines.
3. Activate the correct combination of control sig-
nals.
4. Raise EA/VPP from VCC to 12.75V g0.25V.
5. Pulse ALE/PROG 5 times for the EPROM ar-
ray, and 25 times for the encryption table and
the lock bits.
Repeat 1 through 5 changing the address and data
for the entire array or until the end of the object file is
reached.
PROGRAM VERIFY
Program verify may be done after each byte that is
programmed, or after a block of bytes that is pro-
grammed. In either case a complete verify of the
entire array that has been programmed will ensure a
reliable programming of the M87C51FC.
The lock bits cannot be directly verified. Verification
of the lock bits is done by observing that their fea-
tures are enabled. Refer to the EPROM Program
Lock section in this data sheet.

M87C51FC
EPROM Program Lock
The M87C51FC has a 3-bit program lock system
and a 64-byte encryption array which are designed
to protect the onboard program and data against
software piracy.
Encryption Array
Within the EPROM array are 64 bytes of Encryption
Array that are initially unprogrammed (all 1’s). Every
time that a byte is addressed during a verify, 5 ad-
dress lines are used to select a byte of the Encryp-
tion Array. This byte is then exclusive-NOR’ed
(XNOR) with the code byte, creating an Encryption
Verify byte. The algorithm, with the array in the un-
programmed state (all 1’s), will return the code in it’s
original, unmodified form. For programming the En-
cryption Array, refer to Table 2 (Programming the
EPROM).
Program Lock Bits
The M87C51FC has 3 programmable lock bits that
when programmed according to Table 3 will provide
different levels of protection for the on-chip code
and data.
Erasing the EPROM also erases the encryption ar-
ray and the program lock bits, returning the part to
full functionality.
Reading the Signature Bytes
The M87C51FC has 3 signature bytes in locations
30H, 31H, and 60H. To read these bytes follow the
procedure for EPROM verify, but activate the control
lines provided in Table 2 for Read Signature Byte.
Location: 30H e89H
31H e58H
60H eFCH
Erasure Characteristics
Erasure of the EPROM begins to occur when the
chip is exposed to light with wavelength shorter than
approximately 4,000 Angstroms. Since sunlight and
fluorescent lighting have wavelengths in this range,
exposure to these light sources over an extended
time (about 1 week in sunlight, or 3 years in room-
level fluorescent lighting) could cause inadvertent
erasure. If an application subjects the device to this
type of exposure, it is suggested that an opaque la-
bel be placed over the window.
The recommended erasure procedure is exposure
to ultraviolet light (at 2537 Angstroms) to an integrat-
ed dose of at least 15 W-sec/cm2. Exposing the
EPROM to an ultraviolet lamp of 12,000 mW/cm2
rating for 30 minutes, at a distance of about 1 inch,
should be sufficient.
Erasure leaves all the EPROM Cells in a 1’s state.
Table 3. Program Lock Bits and the Features

1 U U U No Program Lock features enabled. (Code verify will still be encrypted by the
Encryption Array if programmed.)
2 P U U MOVC instructions executed from external program memory are disabled
from fetching code bytes from internal memory, EA is sampled and latched on
Reset, and further programming of the EPROM is disabled.
3 P P U Same as 2, also verify is disabled.
4 P P P Same as 3, also external execution is disabled.
Any other combination of the lock bits is not defined.
