MAXQ8913微控制器提升性能并降低功耗的方法
數(shù)據(jù)傳遞操作
如上所述,在RAM中執(zhí)行代碼時(shí),有兩個(gè)與內(nèi)存映射相關(guān)的事項(xiàng)發(fā)生了變化。第一,程序閃存現(xiàn)在被映射至數(shù)據(jù)內(nèi)存。這意味著我們可通過(guò)任意數(shù)據(jù)指針直接從程序閃存讀取數(shù)據(jù),如下所示。
;; Read the banner string from flash and output it over the serial port. Since
;; we are running from RAM, we can read from the flash directly without having
;; to use the Utility ROM data transfer functions (moveDP0inc, etc...).
move SC.4, #0
move DPC, #0 ; Set pointers to byte mode.
move DP[0], #(stringData * 2) ; Point to byte address of string data.
stringLoop:
move Acc, @DP[0]++
sjump Z, stringEnd
lcall #TxChar
sjump stringLoop
stringEnd:
move DPC, #1Ch ; Set pointers to word mode.

;; This portion of the code (addresses 200h and higher) will remain in flash.
org 0200h
stringData:
db 0Dh, 0Ah, Executing code from RAM...., 00h
請(qǐng)注意,如圖1所示,SC.4 (CDA0)位影響將哪一半程序閃存(上半頁(yè)或下半頁(yè))以字節(jié)模式映射至數(shù)據(jù)內(nèi)存。當(dāng)使用字模式指針時(shí),整個(gè)程序閃存被一次性映射至數(shù)據(jù)內(nèi)存。
第二,現(xiàn)在雖然閃存在數(shù)據(jù)空間可存取,但SRAM不可直接存取。這意味著不能對(duì)SRAM的存儲(chǔ)單元進(jìn)行讀或?qū)懖僮?,?yīng)用程序必須采取迂回的方法。從SRAM存儲(chǔ)單元讀取數(shù)據(jù)可按照在閃存中運(yùn)行的代碼從閃存存儲(chǔ)單元讀取數(shù)據(jù)相同的方式實(shí)現(xiàn)—利用應(yīng)用ROM數(shù)據(jù)傳遞函數(shù)(moveDP0inc等)。然而,由于在應(yīng)用ROM中沒(méi)有類(lèi)似的函數(shù)可實(shí)現(xiàn)直接寫(xiě)操作,所以應(yīng)用程序必須提供一個(gè)小函數(shù)駐留在閃存中,該函數(shù)可被RAM中駐留的代碼直接調(diào)用來(lái)執(zhí)行寫(xiě)操作。
以下的代碼演示用來(lái)讀和寫(xiě)RAM變量varA的方法,其初始值隨其它部分的應(yīng)用程序被從閃存復(fù)制到RAM,地址范圍為0000h-01FFh。

結(jié)論
利用MAXQ8913及其它MAXQ微控制器采用的Harvard內(nèi)存映射架構(gòu),可以將不同的物理內(nèi)存段(例如數(shù)據(jù)SRAM)映射為程序或數(shù)據(jù)內(nèi)存空間。在數(shù)據(jù)SRAM中執(zhí)行部分應(yīng)用程序?yàn)樾阅芴嵘徒?a class="contentlabel" href="http://cafeforensic.com/news/listbylabel/label/低功耗">低功耗提供了潛力。不過(guò)該過(guò)程也增加了應(yīng)用程序的復(fù)雜性。
