The 8XC51SL based on Intel鈥檚 industry-standard MCS 51 microcontroller family is designed for keyboard
control in laptop and notebook PCs The highly integrated keyboard controller incorporates an 8042-style UPI
host interface with expanded memory keyboard scan and power management The 8XC51SL supports both
serial and scanned keyboard interfaces and is available in pre-programmed versions to reduce time to market
The Low Voltage 8XC51SL is the 3 3V version optimized for even further power savings Throughout the
remainder of this document both devices will generally be referred to as 51SL
The 8XC51SL is a pin-for-pin compatible replacement for the 8XC51SL-BG It does however have some
additional functionality Those additional functions are as follows
1 16K OTP ROM The 8XC51SL-BG had only 8K of ROM
2 New Register Set The 8XC51SL adds a second set of host interface registers available for use in support-
ing power management This required an additional address line (A1) for decoding To accommodate this
one V
CC
pin was removed However in order to maintain compatibility with the -BG version an enable bit
for this new register set was added in configuration register 1 This allows the 8XC51SL to be drop in
compatible to existing 8XC51SL-BG designs no software modifications required
NOTE
The changes made to the V
CC
pins require that all three V
CC
pins be properly connected Failing to do so
could result in high leakage current and possible damage to the device
