Hi, i hope this is not a repeat post but my browser crashed.....
I have a pile of HC908QY4 so want to use them for a small project.
But I am noticing some odd behaviour which I suspect is related to BSET and BCLR not working as expected. As far as I can see these command won't function until a force a #0ff and then #00 to the port. Then BCLR and BSET seem to work after POR. But then they appear to not work after a RST.
All is OK if I don't need a RST button! But in this case I do...
The code works after a POR, but doesn't after a manual RST. If I replace BSET and BCLR with OR and AND, it seems to operate OK. But they are handy instructions. I wonder if I need to do something elsewhere to correctly initialise the MCU for these instructions.
I cannot locate all documents mentioning this - if this was a know snag I would expect it to be documented before now.
It is probably me being dumb, or missing a key initialisation step. My init steps are:
lda #11 ;set COP off and LVI off in CONFIG1
sta $001f
lda #01 ;set CONFIG 2 to enable ext RST
sta $001e
lda #00 ;All inputs for port A
sta $0004 ;DDR A
lda #0ff ;All outputs for port B
sta $0005 ;DDR B
;to make BCLR and BSET functional, I then use this:
lda #0ff
sta portb
lda #00
sta portb
I'd appreciate any insights as to why a RST is behaving differently to a POR, and why I might be experiencing issues with BSET and BCLR.
Many thanks
