5. Setup for I/O ports
Setup I/O ports using hardware and software as follows:
<Hardware>
• Connect a resistor of 100
<Software>
• As for an input port, read data several times by a program for
• As for an output port, since the output data may reverse because
• Rewrite data to direction registers and pull-up control registers at
Note: When a direction register is set for input port again at fixed

6. Providing of watchdog timer function by software
If a microcomputer runs away because of noise or others, it can
be detected by a software watchdog timer and the microcomputer
can be reset to normal operation. This is equal to or more effective
than program runaway detection by a hardware watchdog timer.
The following shows an example of a watchdog timer provided by
software.
In the following example, to reset a microcomputer to normal op-
eration, the main routine detects errors of the interrupt processing
routine and the interrupt processing routine detects errors of the
main routine.
This example assumes that interrupt processing is repeated mul-
tiple times in a single main routine processing.

periods, a several-nanosecond short pulse may be output
from this port. If this is undesirable, connect a capacitor to
this port to remove the noise pulse.

7. Electric Characteristic Differences Between Mask ROM and
One Time PROM Version MCUs
There are differences in electric characteristics, operation margin,
noise immunity, and noise radiation between the mask ROM and
One Time PROM version MCUs due to the difference in the manu-
facturing processes.
When manufacturing an application system with the One Time
PROM version and then switching to use of the Mask ROM ver-
sion, please perform sufficient evaluations for the commercial
samples of the Mask ROM version.
