The AT89C 51 pro vides the follo wing st andar d featur es: 4K
bytes of Flash, 128 byte s of RAM, 32 I/O l ines, two 16-bit
timer/counters, a five vector two-level interrupt architecture,
a full duplex serial port, on-chip oscillator and clock cir-
cuitry. In addition, the AT89C51 is designed with static logic
for operation down to zero frequency and supports two
software selectable power saving modes. The Idle Mode
stops the CPU while allowing the RAM, timer/counters,
serial port and interrupt system to continue functioning. The
Power-down Mode saves the RAM contents but freezes

Pin Description
VCC
Supply voltage.
GND
Ground.
Port 0
Port 0 i s an 8-b it open-dra in bi-dir ectional I/O po rt. As an
output port, eac h pin can s ink eight TT L inputs . When 1s
are written to port 0 pins, the pins can be used as high-
impedance inputs.
Por t 0 may al so be co nfigur ed to be t he mul tiplex ed low-
order address/data b us during accesses to external pro-
gram and data memory. In this mode P0 has internal
pullups.
Port 0 also receives the code bytes during Flash program-
ming, and outputs the code bytes during program
verific ation. Extern al pull ups are requi red dur ing pro gram
verification.
Port 1
Port 1 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pullups.
The Port 1 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs.
When 1s are written to Port 1 pins they are pulled high by
the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs,
Port 1 pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL) because of the internal pullups.
Port 1 also receives the low-order address bytes during
Flash programming and verification.
Port 2
Port 2 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pullups.
The Port 2 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs.
When 1s are written to Port 2 pins they are pulled high by
the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs,
Port 2 pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL) because of the internal pullups.
Port 2 emits the high-order address byte during fetches
from external program memory and during accesses to
externa l d ata m em or y that use 16-bi t ad dres se s ( MO VX @
DPTR). In this application, it uses strong internal pullups
when emitting 1s. During accesses to external data mem-
ory that use 8-bit addresses (MOVX @ RI), Port 2 emits the
contents of the P2 Special Function Register.
Port 2 also receives the high-order address bits and some
control signals during Flash programming and verification.
Port 3
Port 3 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pullups.
The Port 3 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs.
When 1s are written to Port 3 pins they are pulled high by
the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs ,
Port 3 pins that are externally being pulled low will sourc e
current (IIL) because of the pull ups .
Port 3 also serv es the fun ctions of v arious speci al fea tures
of the AT89C51 as listed below:
Port 3 also receives some control signals for Flash pro-
gramming and verification.
RST
Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while
the oscillator is running resets the device.
ALE/PROG
Address Latch Enable output pulse for latching the low byte
of the address during accesses to external memory. This
pin is also the program pulse input (PROG) during Flash
programming.
In normal operation ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6
the oscillator frequency, and may be used for external tim-
ing or clocking purposes. Note, however, that one ALE

pulse is skipped during each access to external Data
Memory.
If desired, ALE operation can be disabled by setting bit 0 of
SFR loc ation 8 EH. Wi th the bit s et, ALE is active only dur -
ing a MOVX or MOVC instruction. Otherwise, the pin is
weakly pulled high. Setting the ALE-disable bit has no
effect if the microcontroller is in external execution mode.
PSEN
Program Store Enable is the read strobe to external pro-
gram memory.
When the AT89C51 is executing code from external pro-
gram memory, PSEN is activated twice each machine
cycle, except that two PSEN activations are sk i pped dur in g
each access to external data memory.
EA/VPP
External Access Enable. EA must be strapped to GND in
order to enable the device to fetch c ode from ex ternal pr o-
gram memory locations starting at 0000H up to FFFFH.
Note, however, that if lock bit 1 is programmed, EA will be
internally latched on reset.
EA should be strapped to VCC for internal program
executions.
This pin also receives the 12-volt programming enable volt-
age (VPP) during F lash pr ogramm ing, fo r parts th at requ ire
12-volt VPP.
XTAL1
Input to the inverting os cillator amplifi er and input to th e
internal clock operating circuit.
XTAL2
Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.
Oscillator Characteristi cs
XTAL1 a nd XTAL2 ar e the inp ut and ou tput, resp ectively,
of an inver ting ampl ifi er whic h c an be c onfigur e d for use as
an on-c hip osci llator, as shown in Figure 1 . Eithe r a quartz
crystal or ceramic resonator may be used. To drive the
device from a n ext er nal cl ock so ur ce , XTAL 2 sh oul d be le ft
unconnected while XTAL1 is driv en as shown in Figure 2.
There are no requirements on the duty cycle of the external
clock signal, since the input to the internal clocking circuitry
is thr ough a d ivide-by -two flip- flop, but minimu m and m axi-
mum voltage high and low time specifications must be
observed.
Idle Mode
In idle mode, the CPU puts itsel f to sleep while all the on-
chip peripherals remain active. The mode is invoked by
software. T he content of the on-chip RAM and all the spe-
cial functions registers remain unchanged during this
mode. The idle mode can be terminated by any enabled
interrupt or by a hardware reset.
It should be noted that when idle is terminated by a hard
ware rese t, the device nor mally resume s program exec u-
tion, from where it left off, up to two mac hine cycles bef ore
the internal reset algorithm takes control. On-chip hardware
inhib its access to i nternal RA M in this even t, but acc ess to
the port pins is not inhibited. To eliminate the possibility of
an unexpected write to a port pin when Idle is terminated by
reset, the instruction following the one that invokes Idle
should n ot be one that wri tes to a port pin or to externa l
memory.

Power-down Mode
In the power -dow n mode, the osc illator is sto pped, an d the
instruc tion that invoke s powe r-down is the las t instru ction
executed. The on-chip RAM and Special Function Regis-
ters retain their values until the power-down mode is
termina ted. The only exit from po wer-down is a hardw are
reset. R eset red efines the SFRs but does not change th e
on-chip RAM. The reset should not be activated before VCC
is re stored to its no rmal o peratin g level and mu st be h eld
active long enough to allow the oscillator to restart and
stabilize.
Progra m Me mo ry Loc k Bi ts
On the chip are three lock bits which can be left unpro-
grammed (U) or can be programmed (P) to obtain the
additional features listed in the table below.
When lock bit 1 is programmed, the logic level at the EA pin
is sam pled and latch ed during r eset. If the de vice is pow-
ered up without a reset, the latch initia lizes to a random
value, and holds that value until reset is activated. It is nec-
essary that the latched value of EA be in agreement with
the current logi c level at tha t pin in order for the device to
function properly.

Programming the Flash
The AT89C51 is normally shipped with the on-chip Flash
memory array in the erased state (that is, contents = FFH)
and ready to be programmed. The programming interface
accepts either a high-voltage (12-volt) or a low-voltage
(VCC) program enable signal. The low-voltage program-
ming mode provides a convenient way to program the
AT89C51 inside the us er’s system, whi le the high-voltage
progra mming m ode is co mpatib le with convent ional th ird-
party Flash or EPROM programmers.
The AT89C51 is shipped with either the high-voltage or
low-voltage programming mode enabled. The respective
top-sid e marking and devi ce sig nature code s are l isted in
the following table.
The AT89C 51 cod e memor y arr ay is pr ogra mmed byte- by-
byte in either programming mode. To progr am any non-
blank byte in the on-chip Flash Memory, the entire memory
must be erased using the Chip Erase Mode.
Programming Algorithm: Before programming the
AT89C51, the address, data and control signals should be
set up according to the Flash programming mode table and
Figure 3 and Figure 4. To program the AT89C51, take the
following steps.
1. Input the desired memory location on the address
lines.
2. Input the appropriate data byte on the data lines.
3. Activate the correct combination of control signals.
4. Raise EA/VPP to 12V for the high-voltage program-
ming mode.
5. Pulse ALE/PROG once to program a byte in the
Flash array or the lock bits. The byte-write cycle is
self-timed and typically takes no more than 1.5 ms.
Repeat steps 1 through 5, changing the address
and data for the entire array or until the end of the
object file is reached.
Data Polling: The AT89C51 features Data Polling to indi-
cate the end of a write cycle. During a write cycle, an
attempted read of the last byte written will result in the com-
plement of the written datum on PO.7. Once the write cycle
has be en com pl eted , true d ata a re va li d on a ll out puts , an d
the next c ycle may be gin. Data Polling may begin any time
after a write cycle has been initiated.
Ready/Busy: The progress of byte programming can also
be monito red by th e RDY /BS Y outp ut sig nal . P 3.4 is pul le d
low after ALE goes h igh during programming to indicate
BUSY. P3.4 is pulled high again when programming is
done to indicate READY.
Program Verify: If lock bits LB1 and LB2 have not been
programmed, the programmed code data can be read back
via the addr ess and da ta lines for verificati on. The lo ck bits
cannot be v erified directly . Verification of the lock bits is
achieved by observing that their features are enabled.
Chip Erase: The entire Flash array is erased electrically
by using the proper combi nation of control signals a nd by
holding ALE/PROG low for 10 ms . The code ar ray is writ ten
with all “1”s. The chip erase operation must be executed
before the code memory can be re-programmed.
Reading the Signature Bytes: The signature byt es are
read by the same procedure as a normal verification of
locations 030H, 031H, and 032H, except that P3.6 a nd
P3.7 must be pu lled to a logic low. The va lues return ed ar e
as follows.
(030H) = 1EH indicates manufactured by Atmel
(031H) = 51H indicates 89C51
(032H) = FFH indicates 12V programming
(032H) = 05H indicates 5V programming
Pr ogramming Interface
Every code byte in the Flash array ca n be written and the
entire ar ray c an be e rase d by us i ng the a pprop ri ate c omb i-
nation of control signals. T he write operation cycle is self-
timed and once initiated, will automatically time itself to
completion.

Shift Register Mode Timing Waveforms
AC Testing Input/Output Waveforms(1)
Note: 1. AC Inputs during testing are driven at VCC - 0.5V f or a
logic 1 and 0.45 V fo r a logic 0. Tim ing measure ments
are made at VIH min. for a logic 1 and VIL max. for a
logic 0.
Float Waveforms(1)
Note: 1. For timing purposes, a por t pin is no longer floating
when a 100 mV change from load voltage occurs. A
port pin begins to float when 100 mV change from
the loaded VOH/VOL level occurs.
