NEC PD78214 - Manual (Page 6)

PREFACE
Users:
This manual is aimed at engineers who need to be familiar with the capabilities of the
µPD78214 sub-series for
application program development purposes.
Purpose:
The purpose of this manual is to help users understand the hardware capabilities of the
µPD78214 sub-series.
Organization:
Two manuals are available for the
µPD78214 sub-series: The hardware manual (this manual) and instruction
manual (common to all 78K/II series products). The contents of the manuals are:
Hardware Instruction
Pin functions CPU functions
Internal block functions Addressing
Interrupt functions Instruction set
Other built-in functions
Important information related to using the products described in this manual is provided in the form of
“Caution” notes, appearing in appropriate places in each chapter. Each “Caution” is repeated at the end
of the chapter. Be careful to observe these notes when using the products.
Guidance:
Readers of this manual are assumed to have a general knowledge of electronics, logical circuits, and microcom-
puters.
When using this manual with the
µPD78212, µPD78213, µPD78P214, µPD78212(A), µPD78213(A), µPD78214(A), or
µPD78P214(A):
This manual describes the functions of the
µPD78212, µPD78213, µPD78214, µPD78P214, µPD78212(A), µPD78213(A),
µPD78214(A), and µPD78P214(A). The relationships between these products are shown in the figure on the next
page. Where there is no functional difference between the products, only the
µPD78214 is described, that
description also being applicable to the µPD78212, µPD78213, µPD78P214, µPD78212(A), µPD78213(A), µPD78214(A),
and
µPD78P214(A).
The examples given in this manual are prepared for “Standard” quality products for general electronics
devices. If customers intend to use the examples in this manual in fields where the “Special” quality is
required, note the quality grade of the parts and circuits actually used.
