W78ERD2
The following example shows how the user can define the Given Address to address different slaves.
Slave 1:
SADDR 1010 0100
SADEN 1111 1010
Given 1010 0x0x
Slave 2:
SADDR 1010 0111
SADEN 1111 1001
Given 1010 0xx1
The Given address for slave 1 and 2 differ in the LSB. For slave 1, it is a don't care, while for slave 2 it
is 1. Thus to communicate only with slave 1, the master must send an address with LSB = 0 (1010
0000). Similarly the bit 1 position is 0 for slave 1 and don't care for slave 2. Hence to communicate
only with slave 2 the master has to transmit an address with bit 1 = 1 (1010 0011). If the master
wishes to communicate with both slaves simultaneously, then the address must have bit 0 = 1 and bit
1 = 0. The bit 3 position is don't care for both the slaves. This allows two different addresses to select
both slaves (1010 0001 and 1010 0101).
The master can communicate with all the slaves simultaneously with the Broadcast Address. This
address is formed from the logical ORing of the SADDR and SADEN SFRs. The zeros in the result are
defined as don't cares In most cases the Broadcast Address is FFh. In the previous case, the
Broadcast Address is (1111111X) for slave 1 and (11111111) for slave 2.
The SADDR and SADEN SFRs are located at address A9h and B9h respectively. On reset, these two
SFRs are initialized to 00h. This results in Given Address and Broadcast Address being set as XXXX
XXXX(i.e. all bits don't care). This effectively removes the multiprocessor communications feature,
since any selectivity is disabled.
