Note: Please refer to Chapter 17 from TK18 Data Sheet for details.
There is an internal RESET module. Whether or not to reset is solely depending on the internal module, thus an external pin for Reset is unnecessary.
Note: Please refer to Chapter 5 of TK18 datasheet for details.
There are two internal RC oscillators as the clock source of processor. Therefore external oscillator is unnecessary.
Note: Please refer to Chapter 4 of TK18 data sheet for details.
After TK18 is reset, values for related memory is:
TK18 LED module is an independent hardware, characteristics are:
Note:Refer to Chapter 13 of TK18 data sheet for details.
TK18 UART supports standard 8051 UART hardware and registers.
Note: refer to Chapter 14 of TK18 data sheet for details.
SCON2 and SCON3 compose 16 bit counter to configure Baude rate of UART in operation Mode 2 & 3.
Refer to SCON2 and SCON3 in Chapter 14.3 of TK18 data sheet for details.
This timer/counter also supports original T0 and T1 in standard 8051 core and the only difference is that beside FSYS, T0 & T1 can also use 1μS as clock source. This 1µS pulse is a unique design in TK18, and let users can conveniently calculate the timing of T0 and T1.
Note: Refer to Chapter 9 of TK18 data sheet for details.
Since TK18 has 4 PWM output ports that are multiplexed with 4 GPIO respectively (that is PWM3/GPIO27, PWM2/GPIO26, PWM1/GPIO25 and PWM0/GPIO24), related GPIOD initial values will also decide the voltage level status of PWM output.
Refer to Chapter 11.4 of Tk18 data sheet for details.
