CC2510Fx / CC2511Fx
12 8051 CPU
This section describes the 8051 CPU core,
with interrupts, memory and instruction set.
12.1 8051 CPU Introduction
The CC2510Fx/CC2511Fx includes an 8-bit CPU
core, which is an enhanced version of the
industry standard 8051 core.
The enhanced 8051 core uses the standard
8051 instruction set. Instructions execute
faster than the standard 8051 due to the
following:
• One clock per instruction cycle is used
as opposed to 12 clocks per
instruction cycle in the standard 8051.
• Redundant bus states are eliminated.
• Parallel execution of fetch and execute
phases.
Since an instruction cycle is aligned with
memory fetch when possible, most of the
single byte instructions are performed in a
single clock cycle. In addition to the speed
improvement, the enhanced 8051 core also
includes architectural enhancements:
• Dual data pointers
• Extended 18-source interrupt unit
The 8051 core is object code compatible with
the industry standard 8051 microcontroller.
That is, object code compiled with an industry
standard 8051 compiler or assembler executes
on the 8051 core and is functionally
12.3 Memory
The 8051 CPU has four different memory
spaces:
CODE. A 16-bit read-only memory space for
program memory.
DATA. An 8-bit read/write data memory space,
which can be directly or indirectly accessed by
a single CPU instruction. The lower 128 bytes
of the DATA memory space can be addressed
either directly or indirectly, the upper 128 bytes
only indirectly.
XDATA. A 16-bit read/write data memory
space access to which usually requires 4-5
CPU instruction cycles. Access to XDATA
memory is also slower in hardware than DATA
access as the CODE and XDATA memory
spaces share a common bus on the CPU core
equivalent. However, because the 8051 core
uses a different instruction timing than many
other 8051 variants, existing code with timing
loops may require modification. Also, because
the peripheral units such as timers and serial
ports differ from those on other 8051 cores,
code which includes instructions using the
peripheral units SFRs will not work correctly.
12.2 Reset
The CC2510Fx/CC2511Fx has three reset
sources. The following events generate a
reset:
• Forcing RESET_N input pin low
• A power-on reset condition
• Watchdog timer reset condition
The initial conditions after a reset are as
follows:
• I/O pins are configured as inputs with
pull-up, except P1_0 and P1_1.
• CPU program counter is loaded with
0x0000 and program execution starts
at this address
• All peripheral registers are initialized to
their reset values (refer to register
descriptions)
• Watchdog timer is disabled
and instruction pre-fetch from CODE can thus
not be performed in parallel with XDATA
accesses.
SFR. A 7-bit read/write register memory
space, which can be directly accessed by a
single CPU instruction. For SFR registers
whose address is divisible by eight, each bit is
also individually addressable.
The four different memory spaces are distinct
in the 8051 architecture, but are partly
overlapping in the CC2510Fx/CC2511Fx to ease
DMA transfers and hardware debugger
operation.
