Working Principle

The Z8F6481AN024XK2246 microcontroller operates on a single-stage classic Harvard architecture with interleaved program and data. It uses two power supplies, one for program operation and the other for data manipulation. The microcontroller uses an internal 8-bit bus for data manipulation and an 8-bit wide port to access external circuits. The internal 8-bit bus can access all 16 registers of the central processing unit (CPU). The 8-bit wide port can be configured as input/output (I/O) port or serial port. The microcontroller can support both code and data memory configurations. It has an on-chip ROM for program storage which allows it to be used in applications with no external program memory.

The CPU of the microcontroller supports a wide range of operations and commands such as arithmetic and logic operations, data manipulation, bit-wise operations, and Status Register (STR) manipulation. It also supports interrupts, sleep and wait mode, and conditional and unconditional branching operations. The microcontroller supports both Interrupt Enabled and Interrupt Executable instructions to identify and respond to interrupts from external devices. The on-chip peripheral interconnection helps minimize external component integration and simplifies the development of complex applications. It also improves system performance and power efficiency.
