SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
T2DIR I Timer 2 External Direction
External direction (up/down) for timer 2. Timer 2 increments when T2DIR is high
and decrements when it is low. Also used in conjunction with T2CLK for
quadrature counting mode.
T2DIR is multiplexed with P1.2 and EPA2.
TXCAN O Transmit
This signal carries messages from the integrated CAN controller to other nodes
on the CAN bus.
TXD O Transmit Serial Data
In serial I/O modes 1, 2, and 3, TXD transmits serial port output data. In mode
0, it is the serial clock output.
TXD is multiplexed with P2.0 and PVER.
V
CC
PWR Digital Supply Voltage
Connect each V
CC
pin to the digital supply voltage.
V
PP
PWR Programming Voltage
During programming, the V
PP
pin is typically at +12.5 V (V
PP
voltage).
Exceeding the maximum V
PP
voltage specification can damage the device.
V
PP
also causes the device to exit powerdown mode when it is driven low for at
least 50 ns. Use this method to exit powerdown only when using an external
clock source because it enables the internal phase clocks, but not the internal
oscillator.
V
REF
PWR Reference Voltage for the A/D Converter
This pin also supplies operating voltage to both the analog portion of the A/D
converter and the logic used to read port 0.

GND Digital Circuit Ground (Core Ground, Port Ground)
Connect each V
SS
and V
SS
1
pin to ground through the lowest possible
impedance path. V
SS
pins are connected to the core ground region of the micro-
controller, while V
SS
1
pins are connected to the port ground region. (ANGND is
connected to the analog ground region.) Separating the ground regions
provides noise isolation.
WR# O Write
This active-low output indicates that an external write is occurring. This signal is
asserted only during external memory writes.
WR# is multiplexed with P5.2, SLPWR#, and WRL#.
The chip configuration register 0 (CCR0) determines whether this pin
functions as WR# or WRL#. CCR0.2 = 1 selects WR#; CCR0.2 = 0 selects
WRL#.
WRH# O Write High
During 16-bit bus cycles, this active-low output signal is asserted for high-byte
writes and word writes to external memory. During 8-bit bus cycles, WRH# is
asserted for all write operations.
WRH# is multiplexed with P5.5 and BHE#.
The chip configuration register 0 (CCR0) determines whether this pin
functions as BHE# or WRH#. CCR0.2 = 1 selects BHE#; CCR0.2 = 0 selects
WRH#.
