Power Supply Concept for the C515C

Introduction
This application note describes a power supply concept for the Siemens C515C 8-Bit microcontroller and introduces a corresponding suggestion for a corresponding PCB schematic. Moreover this paper deals with the enhanced feature of the C515C, which is to switch off the Address Latch Enable output signal (ALE) while accessing internal code memory (ROM). A significant improvement of the EMC behavior of this controller can be achieved with this feature. 2 Dedicated Power Supply Pins of the C515C
Ten pins of the C515C 8-Bit microcontroller are dedicated power supply pins, which are more then 12% of all pins of the MQFP 80 package. These pins are arranged and grouped into power supply and ground pins and used to connect the controller to the external 5V power supply. The symbolic names and pin numbers are listed in table 1 and table 2 below. The pin configuration of the C515C is shown in figure 1. 3 On-chip Power Supply Concept
The C515C has two on-chip power supply rings. One power ring supplies the core and the peripherals (Oscillator circuit, ADC, Timer Units, SSC, USART, CAN etc.). The other one is used to feed the I/O ports (pads). Each of these two power rings is at least connected to two supply pin pairs. These multiple supply nodes lead to a balanced supply voltage all over the chip and to stable VOL and VOH levels. The pin pairs VCC1/VSS1 and VCCCLK/VSSCLK belong to the power ring for the internal logic. The power ring for the pads is connected to the three supply pin pairs VCCE1/VSSE1, VCCE2/VSSE2 and VCCEXT/VSSEXT. The two power rings are connected internally only at the pins VCC1/VCCE1 and VSS1/VSSE1 over bond wires. Due to this, the interferences between the two power rings are minimized. Additionally, the C515C provides on-chip decoupling capacitors, building in sum approx. 800 pF. These measures lead to an approach towards improved EMC behavior of this device.

PCB Power Supply Concept
In general, separate VCC and VSS planes are recommended for the PCB layout and ceramic SMD capacitors (X7R) should be used as decoupling capacitances in order to obtain best EMC behavior. Figure 1 introduces a suggestion, whereby the controller is connected to the supply voltage with all of its supply pin pairs. The pin pairs VCC1/VSS1 and VCCE1/VSSE1 have also to be connected externally (on the PCB) and can be handled as one supply input (see figure 1). Each supply input should be blocked with a SMD capacitor of 33 nF. These block capacitors should be placed as near as possible to the power supply pins of the controller in order to avoid parasitical inductances. For PCB layouts, which do not use separate VCC and VSS planes, it is recommended to feed the C515C straight from one 5V voltage source to VCC1/VSS1 and to connect the other power supply pins directly to this point. This suggestion may fit for many applications but should not be regarded as the only possible solution.

ALE Switch Off Feature
In order to improve the EMC behavior of this device, when using internal ROM, the C515C allows to switch off the Address Latch Enable output signal (ALE). This enhanced capability can only become active if internal ROM is used (EA=1). With pin EA=1 there is no port activity at Port 0 and Port 2 while accessing internal code memory, but the ALE output signal is still generated. The ALE signal can be suppressed by clearing bit EALE (Enable ALE output) in SFR SYSCON (located at address B1H) and ALE output will only become active during external data memory accesses. After a hardware reset the ALE generation is enabled. Reset value: EALE = 1 The comparison of EMC measurements according to VDE 767.14 indicates the contribution of the ALE output signal to the global EME. The usage of the ALE switch off feature can reduce the global EME up to 15 dBV within the lower frequency range up to 80 MHz during internal code memory accesses. This significant impact of the ALE switch off feature of the C515C is shown in figure 2. The bright curve (C515C ALE ON) corresponds to the measurement done with activated ALE output signal and the dark curve (C515C ALE OFF) corresponds to the measurement done with deactivated ALE output signal while accessing internal ROM (EA=1).
