The 68Hc11 is actually a complex micro-controller its contains internally RAM, EEPROM, Parallel IO and serial ports, hardware timers and a 8 channel ADC.  The internal structure is shown .A micro controller is only useful if the operator can communicate with the outside world, for this purpose the I/O devices have been included. The 68HC11 series of micro controllers have many I/O devices in their family, each devices has its own particular quirks. The different devices are appended by a letter denoted the series type
