AN1149/0699 1/17 application note handling suspend mode on a usb mouse by microcontroller division application team introduction all usb devices must support suspend mode. suspend mode enables the devices to enter low-power mode if no bus activity is detected for more than 3.0 ms. like usb keyboards and pointing devices, usb mice must be able to exit suspend mode if a button has been pressed or if a movement has been detected. this feature is called remote wake-up mode. a remote wake-up involves a resume sequence on the usb lines and re- covery of communication between the mouse and the host. the following application note describes the implementation of suspend and remote wake-up modes on a usb mouse using the st7263 microcontroller. the first chapter focuses on the recommendations before entering suspend mode. then a description of the rc external cir- cuit for handling remote wake-up mode is detailed. it contains power management recom- mendations and rc value proposals. the third chapter describes resume mode. then chapter 4 and chapter 5 describe software implementation and program flow. it is assumed that the reader is familiar with the st7263 microcontroller and usb. 1

3/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse 1 entering suspend mode 1.1 specification the usb mouse must be able to enter suspend mode from any powered state. it goes into suspend mode when it detects a constant idle state on the usb data lines for more than 3.0 ms. (no start of frames are issued by the host for more than 3.0 ms). any bus activity keeps the mouse out of the suspend state. when the mouse is in the suspend state, it must draw less than 500 m a from the bus. 1.2 st7263 implementation all the st7263 microcontroller usb events are managed by interrupts. as soon as a constant idle state occurs for more than 3.0 ms, the suspend bit of the interrupt status register (istr) is set by hardware. then, the firmware determines the interrupt origin by reading the istr register, sets a bit in a software register (bmusbintflag), and clears the interrupt flag. the usb polling routine reads the software register (bmusbintflag) to determine the usb in- terrupt source and jumps to the corresponding interrupt routine. to get the 500 m a specification, the st7263 microcontroller must be placed in halt low- power mode . halt mode is entered by executing the halt instruction in the suspend in- terrupt routine. the internal oscillator is then turned off, causing all internal processing to be stopped, including the operation of the on-chip peripherals. 1.3 recommendations before entering suspend mode special care must be taken of the st7263 port configuration before entering suspend mode. the ports a and c contain integrated pull-up resistors. if these ports are configured as inputs, they draw about 50 m a on each pin. (see st7263 data sheet electrical characteristics). this means that the 8 port a pins and the 3 port c pins could draw 550 m a together. consequently it would be impossible to get the 500 m a current consumption specification. then port a and port c must then be therefor configured as outputs before entering suspend mode. correct voltage values must be applied to the output pins to make the current con- sumption as low as possible. port b does not contain any integrated pull-up resistor, but external pull-up resistors are im- plemented in hardware at the photo transistor outputs. thus it is strongly recommended to configure these as outputs and to apply a 5v value on each pin before entering suspend mode. 2
4/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse 2 exiting suspend mode 2.1 specification a usb mouse can be woken-up from suspend state by switching the bus state to the resume state, by normal bus activity, or by signalling a reset. a mouse device can be woken-up by ac- tions associated with internal functions and then cause signalling on its upstream connections to wake or alert the rest of the system. this feature is called remote wake-up. 2.2 st7263 implementation all the st7263 microcontroller usb events are managed by interrupts. the st7263 microcontroller exits suspend mode when one of the following events occurs: a) usb reset on the usb data lines for more than 10 ms min and 20 ms max. the microcontroller exits halt mode and jumps to the usb reset interrupt routine. b) resume signal on the usb data lines from upstream devices for at least 20 ms. the microcontroller exits halt mode and jumps to the usb_end_suspend interrupt routine. c) external interrupt on a pin of the microcontroller (it can either be a rising or falling edge or a level change). the oscillator is then turned on, the microcontroller exits halt mode and jumps to the corresponding interrupt routine. this external interrupt is very important for managing remote wake-up mode. as described in the previous section, when the microcontroller enters halt mode, it must draw less than 500 m a average and it must be able to check if a mouse button has been pressed or if the mouse as been moved. this implies that external interrupt must periodically wake-up the microcon- troller to make it check its port states. the following section proposes a cost effective solution for generating this periodic external in- terrupt. 2.3 external rc circuit implementation during suspend mode, as the internal oscillator has been turned off, we must use an external event to generate an interrupt on a dedicated pin of the microcontroller. moreover this interrupt signal must occur periodically. the most common and cost-effective solution consists of using an external rc circuit.
5/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse figure 1. rc external circuitry an external capacitor loads through an external resistor. this capacitor is connected to the pb5 external interrupt pin of the microcontroller. as soon as the capacitor load has reached the low-to-high trigger level, the external interrupt vector is set. then, the entire microcon- troller is woken-up: the internal oscillator is turned on, causing all internal processing to resume, including the operations of the on-chip peripherals. if the mouse has moved or if the buttons have been pressed, the application performs a re- mote wake-up sequence, otherwise the application discharges the capacitor and re-enters suspend mode. figure 2. shows the rc circuit behaviour when the mouse is not moved. figure 2. rc circuit behaviour in suspend mode vdd vss pb5 st7263 r c pax pbx photo transistors and buttons pb5 is successively configured as an input with interrupt during suspend phase and as an output during a wake-up phase oscillator activity external capacitor charge and discharge zoom in figure 3
6/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse during the charge of the capacitor, the microcontroller is in low-power mode, it draws only about 250 m a. as soon as the charge of the capacitor reaches the low-to-high interrupt trigger value (about 3.35 v), the microcontroller wakes-up. the oscillator is then turned on and a sta- bilization time is required before releasing cpu clock cycles. this stabilization time is 4096 cpu clock cycles. during this activity phase, the microcontroller draws about 20 ma. this os- cillator wake-up phase is shown in figure 3. figure 3. oscillator wake-up sequence 4096 cpu clocks external capacitor charge oscillator activity and discharge for these 800 m s, the micro draws 20 ma
7/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse 2.4 photo transistors timing requirements to check if the mouse has moved, it is necessary to compare the current state of the photo transistor outputs with the previous ones (recorded before entering suspend mode). as soon as the microcontroller executes its program code, the infra red leds of the mouse are turned on. however, to establish the previous photo transistor values (especially in case of high level values) a certain amount of time is required. this period is less than 200 m s with the components used . this is due to current establishment in the infra-red diode. figure 4. photo transistor behaviour mouse infra red power supply active on low level photo transistor output high level establishment external capacitor charge and discharge oscillator activity 220 m s to the program code handling before re-entering corresponding halt mode at this point, the current value is read and compared to the previous one. if the mouse has not been moved, the mouse re-enters suspend mode otherwise we perform a remote wake-up sequence
8/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse 2.5 rc time constant calculation as shown on the previous oscillogram, the microcontroller is active for 800 m s and it draws 20 ma. it is in low-power mode during the rest of the period and draws about 250 m a. the following equation enables you to calculate the correct value of the rc time period to be within the suspend mode 500 m a average max current specification: example: if you choose 450 m a to stay well within the specification and with the following parameters: imax = 20 ma - wakeuptime = 800 m s - imin = 250 m a you obtain the following equation: a period value of 80 ms is obtained. the rc value can then be calculated to get this period. you need to pay attention to 2 parameters: C the high level voltage imposed by the high trigger level (about 3.4v with a +/- 10% variation). C the input impedance of the pin which modifies the equivalent resistance of the rc circuit. the following table presents some rc values and the corresponding time periods and con- sumption measured on a st7263 microcontroller. depending on the application supporting suspend mode, you will have to find a compromise between the suspend interval time and the suspend average current. table 1. rc value proposal note 1: suspend mode consumption has been measured with ports a and c configured as outputs (this has been done to avoid additional current consumption in their pull-up resistors) rc values suspend interval time suspend average current c= 330 nf - r= 1 m w t= 306 ms i= 400 m a c= 330 nf - r= 670 k w t= 200 ms i= 405 m a c= 330 nf - r= 330 k w t= 97 ms i= 440 m a c= 100 nf - r= 670 k w t= 80 ms i= 450 m a c= 100 nf - r= 330 k w t= 37 ms i= 540 m a (out of spec.) specvalue imax wakeuptime ) imin period wakeuptime C () () + () period ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------- = 450 m s 20 ma 800 m s ) 250 (m aperiod 800 m s C () + () period -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =
9/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse note 2: a usb mouse is a human interface device. this means that it is manipulated by an operator at quite a low frequency. for mouse pointing devices, the best compromise is ob- tained by chosing an rc value which allows you to enter remote wake-up mode and fre- quently check the device sensor states (10 times per second is enough).
10/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse 3 resume mode as soon as a different value has been read from the buttons or photo transistor outputs, the microcontroller performs a remote wake-up sequence to resume the communication flow be- tween the device and the host. an example of such a sequence is shown in figure 5. figure 5. resume state behaviour note that the dm and dp lines are maintained in resume state for 21.6 ms while the usb specification release 1.1 requires the device to assert resume signalling for a period between 10 ms and 15 ms. in fact the device asserts suspend state for only 12 ms and then the host maintain this state for 21.6 ms. this 20 ms minimum resume signalling time insures that all devices in the network that are enabled to see the resume are woken-up. commute from constant idle state to resume state for a previous photo transistor value photo transistor output oscillator activity (checked every 80 ms) dm line dp line period for 10 to 15 ms the mouse is moved by user
11/17 handling suspend mode on a usb mouse 4 software implementation in the following section, all the programs have been developed using the hiware c compiler toolchain. st provides a complete architecture as well as firmware drivers to help you de- velop your application quickly and easily. a list of reference documents is provided at the end of the application note. depending on the st7263 microcontroller, all usb events are managed by interrupt. when an usb event occurs, a flag of the interrupt state register (istr) is set by hardware. then, the firmware determines the interrupt origin by reading the istr register, sets the corresponding bit in a software register (bmusbintflag), and clears the interrupt flag. the usb polling routine reads the software register (bmusbintflag) to determine the usb interrupt source and jumps to the corresponding interrupt routine. each interrupt routine sets the global variable bmusbstate to the corresponding usb state: sof, ennumerated, suspended or remote wake-up. in the check_usbstate.c file you only have to adapt your code to the example given below to handle resume and remote wake-up modes. dont forget to put all the i/os in low-power mode in order to draw less than 500a. figure 6. shows the flow-chart of the main application loop.
