Abstract
This Application Note discusses how eZ80® code can execute faster by running
from RAM memory instead of Flash memory, yet still be able to store the eZ80®
code in Flash. With ZiLOG’s feature-rich ZDS II code development tools, all it
takes for speedy code execution is just a few simple changes to the project settings and the project link file. The leddemo project that is included with the
eZ80L92 device, which uses the ZDS II toolset for eZ80® microprocessors, is
used in this Application Note as an example. However, the information in this document is also applicable to the ZDS II toolset for eZ80Acclaim!™ microcontrollers.
eZ80® General-Purpose Microprocessors Overview
Just as the Z80 revolutionized the semiconductor industry, the next generation
eZ80® is revolutionizing the way communications are happening today. It executes Z80 code four times faster at the same clock speed of traditional Z80s and
can operate at frequencies up to 50MHz. Unlike most 8-bit microprocessors,
which can only address 64KB, the eZ80® can address 16MB without a Memory
Management Unit (MMU).
Designed with over 25 years of experience with the Z80, this microprocessor is
suited for embedded internet appliances, industrial control, automation, web management, modem controller, electronic games, and personal digital assistant
(PDA) applications.
Two popular versions of the eZ80® offered by ZiLOG are the eZ80® General-Purpose MPU (eZ80L92) and the eZ80Acclaim!™ Family of Flash Microcontrollers,
which includes the eZ80F91, eZ80F92, and eZ80F93 devices.

eZ80Acclaim!™ Flash Microcontrollers Overview
eZ80Acclaim!™ on-chip Flash Microcontrollers are an exceptional value for customers designing high performance, 8-bit MCU-based systems. With speeds up
to 50MHz and an on-chip Ethernet MAC (eZ80F91 only), designers have the performance necessary to execute complex applications quickly and efficiently. Combining Flash and SRAM, eZ80Acclaim!™ devices provide the memory required to
implement communication protocol stacks and achieve flexibility when performing
in-system updates of application firmware.
The eZ80Acclaim!™ Flash MCU can operate in full 24-bit linear mode addressing
16MB without a Memory Management Unit. Additionally, support for the Z80-compatible mode allows Z80/Z180 customers to execute legacy code within multiple
64KB memory blocks with minimum modification. With an external bus supporting
eZ80®, Z80, Intel and Motorola bus modes and a rich set of serial communications peripherals, designers have several options when interfacing to external
devices.
Some of the many applications suitable for eZ80Acclaim!™ devices include vending machines, point-of-sale terminals, security systems, automation, communications, industrial control and facility monitoring, and remote control.

Discussion
Whether working with the eZ80L92 device or one of the eZ80Acclaim!™ devices,
you arrive at a stage of development in which you have debugged your code in
RAM using the ZDS II development tool, you have experimented with it in Flash,
and have found that it does not run fast enough. What do you do now? The solution is to copy the code from Flash to RAM and execute it from this faster memory.
This Application Note shows you how to perform this task using ZDS II. The example described within this document uses the ZDS II development toolset for the
eZ80® that is contained in the eZ80L92 Development Kit.
In the ZDS II development environment, there are project settings that allow the
user to select the type of configuration that the code stores and executes. These
configurations include the Standard configuration, the All RAM configuration, the
Custom configuration, and the Copy to RAM configuration. These four configurations are all described in the ZiLOG Developer Studio II—eZ80Acclaim!™ User

Manual (UM0144) and in the technical article titled How Code and Data are
Placed in Memory Using ZDS II (TA0004).
The Copy to RAM configuration is described in this Application Note. The objective is to:
1.
Program Flash memory with a hex file containing your application code and
data.
2.
On startup, direct the application program to copy the remainder of the
program from Flash into RAM.
3.
Continue executing from RAM.
The end result is increased code execution speed.
The code that executes upon reset (initiated by a power-on reset or the pushbutton on the eZ80® Development Platform) is the Boot Loader. The Boot Loader is
part of the external Flash Loader utility that is packaged with the eZ80® development kits. This external Flash Loader programs Flash memory on the eZ80®
Development Platform starting at a location in Flash that the Boot Loader jumps to
after reset. The typical flow of the Copy to RAM and Boot Loader functions is illustrated in Figure 2.

Figure 2 shows the Start-up code, Data Copy, and Code Copy programmed into
Flash by the Flash Loader. Pushing the reset button on the eZ80® Development
Platform starts the Boot Loader. Pressing the space bar on your keyboard while
pushing the reset button causes the Boot Loader to jump to the Flash Loader utility. When the Flash Loader starts executing, it waits for data on serial port 0. Data
received on this port is programmed into Flash starting at location 08200h. Alternatively, Flash memory can be programmed using the ZDS II internal Flash
Loader, which is the tested utility described in this Application Note.
After Flash memory is programmed, push the reset button a second time without
pressing the space bar. The Boot Loader again starts execution. This time, it
jumps to location 8200h, where the start-up code resides. This start-up code performs the following sequence:
1.
Initializes the required processor registers.
2.
Copies the Data Copy section in ROM to the Data section in RAM.
3.
Creates the BSS section in RAM.
4.
Copies the Copy Code section in ROM to the Code section in RAM.
5.
Jumps to the first line of code in the code section.
Note: The start-up code is not copied. Additionally, the Code section is the main
portion of code that runs after startup.
In this Application Note, we use the eZ80L92 device to show an example of how
to use the Copy to Ram feature. The leddemozdsFlash.pro project file that is
packaged with ZDS II version ez80_4.4.2 is used to show how to change the
project such that the code can be copied from Flash to RAM and executed. This
file is found in the ZDSII_eZ80_4.4.2/samples/ez80L92_LedDemo/src directory. The ZDS II build generates a hex file that can be programmed into Flash by
either the external Flash Loader or the Flash Loader internal to ZDS II.
The leddemozdsFlash project uses the Custom configuration and a start-up module that is included in the project. The start-up module is named
l92_extFlashboot.s. Two other source files are used in the project: ledDemo.c
and ledInit.c. The project is configured to access the header files in the
include directory.
The steps in Table 2 show how to make a new project that copies the Code section from Flash and execute it from RAM. It is assumed that the reader has successfully built, downloaded, and run the leddemozdsFlash project, or at least is
familiar with the procedure.

Step
Comment
1. Create a new directory and name it ramcopy.
Create ramcopy as a subdirectory within the
ez80L92_LedDemo directory, and at the same
level as src.
2. Copy the following files from the src directory to
the ramcopy directory:
• leddemozdsFlash.pro
• ledDemo.c
• ledInit.c
• l92_Flashboot.s
All of the project settings in leddemozdsFlash.pro
are also copied. The path set in the Project
Settings dialog box identifies the header files that
are referenced in the include directory.
3. Change the name of the project file leddemozds- Files are generated with the new project filename.
Flash.pro to leddemoRamCopy.pro.
4. Start ZDS II_eZ80_4.4.2.
Ensure that you use this version of ZDS II for
eZ80® or a more recent version.
5. Open the leddemoRamCopy project.
6. Click on the Linker tab in the Project Settings
dialog box. Select the General category and
change the output file name from leddemozdsFlash to leddemoRamCopy.
Output files are generated with the new filename.
7. Using ZDS II, open the l92_Flashboot.s file and
remove or comment out the following lines of
code:
• Define .invect, space = ROM, org = %0000
• Segment .invect
• jp.lil (%8200)
Removing these instructions from the start-up
code in l92_Flashboot.s removes the instructions
that cause the linker to place the jump to 08200h
instruction at location 0000h for resets. Flash
memory should already contain the Flash Loader
boot code at this location and should not be
overwritten if it is to be used.
8. In the General category of the Linker tab of the
Project Settings dialog box, click on Link Configuration and select Copy to RAM. Click OK. A
pop-up dialog is displayed, which asks if you
want to use the Standard Startup Module. Click
Yes.
This step sets the configuration to Copy to RAM.
To place the Copy to RAM linker commands into
the Link Control File, the Standard Startup
Module must also be selected. (With this warning,
ZDS II selects the Standard Startup Module for
you.)
9. Click OK in the Project Settings dialog box.
A Link Control File named leddemoRamCopy is

shown in the next step.
10. Using ZDS II, open the leddemoRamCopy.lnk

near the end of the file:
• Remove the line containing …\lib\startup.obj
• Remove the line locate .startup at 8200h
AN015102-0404
leddemoRamCopy.lnk can show up as a shortcut
file with no extension. Performing this step
modifies the reference to the start-up code in the
Standard Start-up Module to reference the start-up
code in l92_Flashboot.s.

17. In the External Flash Devices pane, select the
Micron MT 28F008B3 Non-Prot 0x8000 entry
and click the ERASE button. A pop-up dialog is
displayed, which asks if you want to erase Flash
8000 to FFFFF. Click Yes.
The user portion of Flash memory is erased and
not the Flash Loader/Boot Loader portion. Be
patient, because the erase can take a few
seconds.
18. Using the browser in the File pane, find and
select the leddemoRamCopy.hex file.
19. Click Burn and Verify in the Flash Controls
pane.
Flash memory is programmed with the leddemo
code that includes Copy to RAM.
20. After Flash memory is programmed, push the
reset button on the eZ80® Development Platform.
Notice the difference in the speed of the LED
flashing between the leddemozdsFlash code and
the leddemoRamCopy code.
Included in this applications note is the leddemoRamCopy project, which already

file RamCopy.zip. After this file is unzipped, place the ramcopy folder in the following directory path.
c:\program files\Zilog\ZDSII_eZ80_4.4.2\samples\ez80L92_LedDemo\
The include file for this project should already reside within the include folder
located in the same path. If the ramcopy folder already exists from completing the
steps in Table 2, rename the existing folder. Using ZDSII_eZ80_4.4.2, build and
Flash-load the project. Press the reset button on the eZ80® Development Platform to run the program.
Conclusion
This Application Note discusses how a few changes to an existing project that had
formerly stored and executed code from Flash memory could be made into a
project in which the code is stored in Flash and executed from RAM. The resulting
increase in execution speed was easily observed in the rate of the LED display
sequence. Achieving faster code execution involved creating a new link file by
modifying the existing file and making changes to the startup source code file.
