Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:  
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.  
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the  
intended manner and under normal conditions.  
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our  
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data  
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.  
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.  
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not  
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”  
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our  
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts  
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.

ENHANCED MID-RANGE CPU  
This family of devices contain an enhanced mid-range  
8-bit CPU core. The CPU has 49 instructions. Interrupt  
capability includes automatic context saving. The  
hardware stack is 16 levels deep and has Overflow and  
Underflow Reset capability. Direct, Indirect, and  
Relative addressing modes are available. Two File  
Select Registers (FSRs) provide the ability to read  
program and data memory.  
• Automatic Interrupt Context Saving  
• 16-level Stack with Overflow and Underflow  
• File Select Registers  
• Instruction Set  
2.1  
Automatic Interrupt Context  
Saving  
During interrupts, certain registers are automatically  
saved in shadow registers and restored when returning  
from the interrupt. This saves stack space and user

for more information.  
2.2  
16-level Stack with Overflow and  
Underflow  
These devices have an external stack memory 15 bits  
wide and 16 words deep. A Stack Overflow or Under-  
flow will set the appropriate bit (STKOVF or STKUNF)  
in the PCON register and, if enabled, will cause a soft-  
ware Reset. See section Section 3.4 “Stack” for more  
details.  
2.3  
File Select Registers  
There are two 16-bit File Select Registers (FSR). FSRs  
can access all file registers and program memory,  
which allows one Data Pointer for all memory. When an  
FSR points to program memory, there is one additional  
instruction cycle in instructions using INDF to allow the  
data to be fetched. General purpose memory can now  
also be addressed linearly, providing the ability to  
access contiguous data larger than 80 bytes. There are  
also new instructions to support the FSRs. See  
Section 3.5 “Indirect Addressing” for more details.  
2.4  
Instruction Set  
There are 49 instructions for the enhanced mid-range  
CPU to support the features of the CPU. See  
Section 26.0 “Instruction Set Summary” for more  
details.

READING PROGRAM MEMORY AS  
DATA  
There are two methods of accessing constants in pro-  
gram memory. The first method is to use tables of  
RETLW instructions. The second method is to set an  
FSR to point to the program memory.

The RETLWinstruction can be used to provide access  
to tables of constants. The recommended way to create  
such a table is shown in Example 3-1.

The BRWinstruction makes this type of table very sim-  
ple to implement. If your code must remain portable  
with previous generations of microcontrollers, then the  
BRWinstruction is not available so the older table read  
method must be used.

Indirect Read with FSR  
3.2.1  
CORE REGISTERS  
The program memory can be accessed as data by set-  
ting bit 7 of the FSRxH register and reading the match-  
ing INDFx register. The MOVIWinstruction will place the  
lower 8 bits of the addressed word in the W register.  
Writes to the program memory cannot be performed via  
the INDF registers. Instructions that access the pro-  
gram memory via the FSR require one extra instruction  
cycle to complete. Example 3-2 demonstrates access-  
ing the program memory via an FSR.  
The core registers contain the registers that directly  
affect the basic operation. The core registers occupy  
the first 12 addresses of every data memory bank  
(addresses x00h/x08h through x0Bh/x8Bh). These  
registers are listed below in Table 3-2. For detailed  
information, see Table 3-4.

3.2  
Data Memory Organization  
The data memory is partitioned into 32 memory banks  
with 128 bytes in each bank. Each bank consists of  
(Figure 3-2):  
• 12 core registers  
• 20 Special Function Registers (SFR)  
• Up to 80 bytes of General Purpose RAM (GPR)  
• 16 bytes of common RAM  
The active bank is selected by writing the bank number  
into the Bank Select Register (BSR). Unimplemented  
memory will read as ‘0’. All data memory can be  
accessed either directly (via instructions that use the  
file registers) or indirectly via the two File Select  
Registers (FSR). See Section 3.5 “Indirect  
Addressing” for more information.  
Data memory uses a 12-bit address. The upper 7 bits  
of the address define the Bank address and the lower  
5 bits select the registers/RAM in that bank.

PIC12(L)F1501  
For example, CLRF STATUSwill clear the upper three  
bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the STATUS register  
as ‘000u u1uu’ (where u= unchanged).  
3.2.1.1  
STATUS Register  
The STATUS register, shown in Register 3-1, contains:  
• the arithmetic status of the ALU  
• the Reset status  
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,  
SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the  
STATUS register, because these instructions do not  
affect any Status bits. For other instructions not  
affecting any Status bits (Refer to Section 26.0  
“Instruction Set Summary”).  
The STATUS register can be the destination for any  
instruction, like any other register. If the STATUS  
register is the destination for an instruction that affects  
the Z, DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is  
disabled. These bits are set or cleared according to the  
device logic. Furthermore, the TO and PD bits are not  
writable. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the  
STATUS register as destination may be different than  
intended.  
Note 1: The C and DC bits operate as Borrow  
and Digit Borrow out bits, respectively, in  
subtraction.

Note 1: For Borrow, the polarity is reversed. A subtraction is executed by adding the two’s complement of the  
second operand. For rotate (RRF, RLF) instructions, this bit is loaded with either the high-order or low-order  
bit of the source register.

PARTITIONING  
The Special Function Registers are registers used by  
the application to control the desired operation of  
peripheral functions in the device. The Special Function  
Registers occupy the 20 bytes after the core registers of  
every data memory bank (addresses x0Ch/x8Ch  
through x1Fh/x9Fh). The registers associated with the  
operation of the peripherals are described in the appro-  
priate peripheral chapter of this data sheet.

COMPUTED GOTO  
3.3  
PCL and PCLATH  
A computed GOTOis accomplished by adding an offset to  
the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When performing a  
table read using a computed GOTOmethod, care should  
be exercised if the table location crosses a PCL memory  
boundary (each 256-byte block). Refer to Application  
Note AN556, “Implementing a Table Read” (DS00556).  
The Program Counter (PC) is 15 bits wide. The low byte  
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and  
writable register. The high byte (PC<14:8>) is not directly  
readable or writable and comes from PCLATH. On any  
Reset, the PC is cleared. Figure 3-3 shows the five  
situations for the loading of the PC.  
3.3.3  
COMPUTED FUNCTION CALLS  
FIGURE 3-3:  
LOADING OF PC IN  
A computed function CALLallows programs to maintain  
tables of functions and provide another way to execute  
state machines or look-up tables. When performing a  
table read using a computed function CALL, care  
should be exercised if the table location crosses a PCL  
memory boundary (each 256-byte block).

BRANCHING

The branching instructions add an offset to the PC.  
This allows relocatable code and code that crosses  
page boundaries. There are two forms of branching,  
BRW and BRA. The PC will have incremented to fetch  
the next instruction in both cases. When using either  
branching instruction, a PCL memory boundary may be  
crossed.

PC + OPCODE <8:0>  
If using BRA, the entire PC will be loaded with PC + 1 +,  
the signed value of the operand of the BRAinstruction.  
3.3.1  
MODIFYING PCL  
Executing any instruction with the PCL register as the  
destination simultaneously causes the Program Coun-  
ter PC<14:8> bits (PCH) to be replaced by the contents  
of the PCLATH register. This allows the entire contents  
of the program counter to be changed by writing the  
desired upper 7 bits to the PCLATH register. When the  
lower 8 bits are written to the PCL register, all 15 bits of  
the program counter will change to the values con-  
tained in the PCLATH register and those being written  
to the PCL register.

3.4.1  
ACCESSING THE STACK  
3.4  
Stack  
The stack is available through the TOSH, TOSL and  
STKPTR registers. STKPTR is the current value of the  
Stack Pointer. TOSH:TOSL register pair points to the  
TOP of the stack. Both registers are read/writable. TOS  
is split into TOSH and TOSL due to the 15-bit size of the  
PC. To access the stack, adjust the value of STKPTR,  
which will position TOSH:TOSL, then read/write to  
TOSH:TOSL. STKPTR is 5 bits to allow detection of  
overflow and underflow.  
All devices have a 16-level x 15-bit wide hardware  
stack (refer to Figures 3-4 through 3-7). The stack  
space is not part of either program or data space. The  
PC is PUSHed onto the stack when CALL or CALLW  
instructions are executed or an interrupt causes a  
branch. The stack is POPed in the event of a RETURN,  
RETLWor a RETFIEinstruction execution. PCLATH is  
not affected by a PUSH or POP operation.  
The stack operates as a circular buffer if the STVREN  
bit is programmed to ‘0‘ (Configuration Words). This  
means that after the stack has been PUSHed sixteen  
times, the seventeenth PUSH overwrites the value that  
was stored from the first PUSH. The eighteenth PUSH  
overwrites the second PUSH (and so on). The  
STKOVF and STKUNF flag bits will be set on an Over-  
flow/Underflow, regardless of whether the Reset is  
enabled.  
Note:  
Care should be taken when modifying the  
STKPTR while interrupts are enabled.  
During normal program operation, CALL, CALLWand  
Interrupts will increment STKPTR while RETLW,  
RETURN, and RETFIEwill decrement STKPTR. At any  
time, STKPTR can be inspected to see how much  
stack is left. The STKPTR always points at the currently  
used place on the stack. Therefore, a CALLor CALLW  
will increment the STKPTR and then write the PC, and  
a return will unload the PC and then decrement the  
STKPTR.  
Note 1: There are no instructions/mnemonics  
called PUSH or POP. These are actions  
that occur from the execution of the  
CALL, CALLW, RETURN, RETLW and  
RETFIE instructions or the vectoring to  
an interrupt address.  
Reference Figure 3-4 through Figure 3-7 for examples  
of accessing the stack.

0x10. This is identical to address 0x00  
so the stack will wrap and overwrite the  
return address at 0x00. If the Stack  
Overflow/Underflow Reset is enabled, a  
Reset will occur and location 0x00 will  
not be overwritten.  
TOSH:TOSL  
STKPTR = 0x10  
3.4.2  
OVERFLOW/UNDERFLOW RESET  
If the STVREN bit in Configuration Words is  
programmed to ‘1’, the device will be reset if the stack  
is PUSHed beyond the sixteenth level or POPed  
beyond the first level, setting the appropriate bits  
(STKOVF or STKUNF, respectively) in the PCON  
register.  
3.5  
Indirect Addressing  
The INDFn registers are not physical registers. Any  
instruction that accesses an INDFn register actually  
accesses the register at the address specified by the  
File Select Registers (FSR). If the FSRn address  
specifies one of the two INDFn registers, the read will  
return ‘0’ and the write will not occur (though Status bits  
may be affected). The FSRn register value is created  
by the pair FSRnH and FSRnL.  
The FSR registers form a 16-bit address that allows an  
addressing space with 65536 locations. These locations  
are divided into three memory regions:  
• Traditional Data Memory  
• Linear Data Memory  
• Program Flash Memory

LINEAR DATA MEMORY  
3.5.3  
PROGRAM FLASH MEMORY  
The linear data memory is the region from FSR  
address 0x2000 to FSR address 0x29AF. This region is  
a virtual region that points back to the 80-byte blocks of  
GPR memory in all the banks.  
To make constant data access easier, the entire  
program Flash memory is mapped to the upper half of  
the FSR address space. When the MSB of FSRnH is  
set, the lower 15 bits are the address in program  
memory which will be accessed through INDF. Only the  
lower 8 bits of each memory location is accessible via  
INDF. Writing to the program Flash memory cannot be  
accomplished via the FSR/INDF interface. All  
instructions that access program Flash memory via the  
FSR/INDF interface will require one additional  
instruction cycle to complete.  
Unimplemented memory reads as 0x00. Use of the  
linear data memory region allows buffers to be larger  
than 80 bytes because incrementing the FSR beyond  
one bank will go directly to the GPR memory of the next  
bank.  
The 16 bytes of common memory are not included in  
the linear data memory region.

Code Protection  
Code protection allows the device to be protected from  
unauthorized access. Internal access to the program  
memory is unaffected by any code protection setting.  
4.2.1  
PROGRAM MEMORY PROTECTION  
The entire program memory space is protected from  
external reads and writes by the CP bit in Configuration  
Words. When CP = 0, external reads and writes of  
program memory are inhibited and a read will return all  
0’s. The CPU can continue to read program memory,  
regardless of the protection bit settings. Writing the  
program memory is dependent upon the write  
protection  
setting.  
See  
Section 4.3  
“Write  
Protection” for more information.  
4.3  
Write Protection  
Write protection allows the device to be protected from  
unintended self-writes. Applications, such as  
bootloader software, can be protected while allowing  
other regions of the program memory to be modified.  
The WRT<1:0> bits in Configuration Words define the  
size of the program memory block that is protected.  
4.4  
User ID  
Four memory locations (8000h-8003h) are designated as  
ID locations where the user can store checksum or other  
code identification numbers. These locations are  
readable and writable during normal execution. See  
Section 10.4 “User ID, Device ID and Configuration  
Word Access” for more information on accessing these  
memory locations. For more information on checksum  
calculation, see the PIC12(L)F1501/PIC16(L)F150X

Word Access” for more information on accessing  
these memory locations.

The oscillator module can be configured in one of the  
following clock modes.  
5.0  
5.1  
OSCILLATOR MODULE  
Overview  
1. ECL – External Clock Low-Power mode  
(0 MHz to 0.5 MHz)  
The oscillator module has a wide variety of clock  
sources and selection features that allow it to be used  
in a wide range of applications while maximizing perfor-  
mance and minimizing power consumption. Figure 5-1  
illustrates a block diagram of the oscillator module.  
2. ECM – External Clock Medium-Power mode  
(0.5 MHz to 4 MHz)  
3. ECH – External Clock High-Power mode  
(4 MHz to 20 MHz)  
4. INTOSC – Internal oscillator (31 kHz to 16 MHz)  
Clock Source modes are selected by the FOSC<1:0>  
bits in the Configuration Words. The FOSC bits  
determine the type of oscillator that will be used when  
the device is first powered.  
The EC clock mode relies on an external logic level  
signal as the device clock source.  
The INTOSC internal oscillator block produces low and  
high-frequency clock sources, designated LFINTOSC  
and HFINTOSC. (see Internal Oscillator Block,  
Figure 5-1).  
A
wide selection of device clock  
frequencies may be derived from these clock sources.

5.2.1.1  
EC Mode  
5.2  
Clock Source Types  
The External Clock (EC) mode allows an externally  
generated logic level signal to be the system clock  
source. When operating in this mode, an external clock  
source is connected to the CLKIN input. CLKOUT is  
available for general purpose I/O or CLKOUT.  
Figure 5-2 shows the pin connections for EC mode.  
Clock sources can be classified as external or internal.  
External clock sources rely on external circuitry for the  
clock source to function. Examples are: oscillator mod-  
ules (EC mode).  
Internal clock sources are contained within the  
oscillator module. The oscillator block has two internal  
oscillators that are used to generate two system clock  
sources: the 16 MHz High-Frequency Internal  
Oscillator (HFINTOSC) and the 31 kHz Low-Frequency  
Internal Oscillator (LFINTOSC).  
EC mode has 3 power modes to select from through  
Configuration Words:  
• High power, 4-20 MHz (FOSC = 11)  
• Medium power, 0.5-4 MHz (FOSC = 10)  
• Low power, 0-0.5 MHz (FOSC = 01)  
The system clock can be selected between external or  
internal clock sources via the System Clock Select  
(SCS) bits in the OSCCON register. See Section 5.3  
“Clock Switching” for additional information.  
When EC mode is selected, there is no delay in opera-  
tion after a Power-on Reset (POR) or wake-up from  
Sleep. Because the PIC® MCU design is fully static,  
stopping the external clock input will have the effect of  
halting the device while leaving all data intact. Upon  
restarting the external clock, the device will resume  
operation as if no time had elapsed.  
5.2.1  
EXTERNAL CLOCK SOURCES  
An external clock source can be used as the device  
system clock by performing one of the following  
actions:  
FIGURE 5-2:

INTERNAL CLOCK SOURCES  
5.2.2.2  
LFINTOSC  
The device may be configured to use the internal oscil-  
lator block as the system clock by performing one of the  
following actions:  
The Low-Frequency Internal Oscillator (LFINTOSC) is  
an uncalibrated 31 kHz internal clock source.  
The output of the LFINTOSC connects to a multiplexer  
(see Figure 5-1). Select 31 kHz, via software, using the  
IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON register. See  
Section 5.2.2.4 “Internal Oscillator Clock Switch  
Timing” for more information. The LFINTOSC is also  
the frequency for the Power-up Timer (PWRT) and  
Watchdog Timer (WDT).  
• Program the FOSC<1:0> bits in Configuration  
Words to select the INTOSC clock source, which  
will be used as the default system clock upon a  
device Reset.  
• Write the SCS<1:0> bits in the OSCCON register  
to switch the system clock source to the internal  
oscillator during run-time. See Section 5.3  
“Clock Switching”for more information.  
The LFINTOSC is enabled by selecting 31 kHz  
(IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON register = 000x) as  
the system clock source (SCS bits of the OSCCON  
register = 1x), or when any of the following are  
enabled:  
In INTOSC mode, CLKIN is available for general  
purpose I/O. CLKOUT is available for general purpose  
I/O or CLKOUT.  
• Configure the IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON  
register for the desired LF frequency, and  
The function of the CLKOUT pin is determined by the  
CLKOUTEN bit in Configuration Words.  
• FOSC<1:0> = 00, or  
The internal oscillator block has two independent  
oscillators clock sources.  
• Set the System Clock Source (SCS) bits of the  
OSCCON register to ‘1x’  
1. The HFINTOSC (High-Frequency Internal  
Oscillator) is factory calibrated and operates at  
16 MHz.  
Peripherals that use the LFINTOSC are:  
• Power-up Timer (PWRT)  
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
2. The LFINTOSC (Low-Frequency Internal  
Oscillator) is uncalibrated and operates at  
31 kHz.  
The Low-Frequency Internal Oscillator Ready bit  
(LFIOFR) of the OSCSTAT register indicates when the  
LFINTOSC is running.  
5.2.2.1  
HFINTOSC  
The High-Frequency Internal Oscillator (HFINTOSC) is  
a factory calibrated 16 MHz internal clock source.  
The outputs of the HFINTOSC connects to a prescaler  
and multiplexer (see Figure 5-1). One of multiple  
frequencies derived from the HFINTOSC can be  
selected via software using the IRCF<3:0> bits of the  
OSCCON register. See Section 5.2.2.4 “Internal  
Oscillator Clock Switch Timing” for more information.  
The HFINTOSC is enabled by:  
• Configure the IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON  
register for the desired HF frequency, and  
• FOSC<1:0> = 00, or  
• Set the System Clock Source (SCS) bits of the  
OSCCON register to ‘1x’.  
A fast start-up oscillator allows internal circuits to  
power-up and stabilize before switching to HFINTOSC.  
The High-Frequency Internal Oscillator Ready bit  
(HFIOFR) of the OSCSTAT register indicates when the  
HFINTOSC is running.  
The High-Frequency Internal Oscillator Stable bit  
(HFIOFS) of the OSCSTAT register indicates when the  
HFINTOSC is running within 0.5% of its final value.

5.2.2.4  
Internal Oscillator Clock Switch  
Timing  
The system clock speed can be selected via software  
using the Internal Oscillator Frequency Select bits  
IRCF<3:0> of the OSCCON register.  
When switching between the HFINTOSC and the  
LFINTOSC, the new oscillator may already be shut  
down to save power (see Figure 5-3). If this is the case,  
there is a delay after the IRCF<3:0> bits of the  
OSCCON register are modified before the frequency  
selection takes place. The OSCSTAT register will  
reflect the current active status of the HFINTOSC and  
LFINTOSC oscillators. The sequence of a frequency  
selection is as follows:  
The outputs of the 16 MHz HFINTOSC postscaler and  
the LFINTOSC connect to  
a
multiplexer (see  
Figure 5-1). The Internal Oscillator Frequency Select  
bits IRCF<3:0> of the OSCCON register select the  
frequency output of the internal oscillators. One of the  
following frequencies can be selected via software:  
1. IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON register are  
modified.  
• HFINTOSC  
- 16 MHz  
2. If the new clock is shut down, a clock start-up  
delay is started.  
- 8 MHz  
- 4 MHz  
3. Clock switch circuitry waits for a falling edge of  
the current clock.  
- 2 MHz  
- 1 MHz  
4. Clock switch is complete.  
See Figure 5-3 for more details.  
- 500 kHz (default after Reset)  
- 250 kHz  
If the internal oscillator speed is switched between two  
clocks of the same source, there is no start-up delay  
before the new frequency is selected.  
- 125 kHz  
- 62.5 kHz  
- 31.25 kHz  
• LFINTOSC  
- 31 kHz  
Start-up delay specifications are located in the  
oscillator tables of Section 27.0 “Electrical  
Specifications”.  
Note:  
Following any Reset, the IRCF<3:0> bits  
of the OSCCON register are set to ‘0111’  
and the frequency selection is set to  
500 kHz. The user can modify the IRCF  
bits to select a different frequency.  
The IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON register allow  
duplicate selections for some frequencies. These dupli-  
cate choices can offer system design trade-offs. Lower  
power consumption can be obtained when changing  
oscillator sources for a given frequency. Faster transi-  
tion times can be obtained between frequency changes  
that use the same oscillator source.

Clock Switching  
The system clock source can be switched between  
external and internal clock sources via software using  
the System Clock Select (SCS) bits of the OSCCON  
register. The following clock sources can be selected  
using the SCS bits:  
The System Clock Select (SCS) bits of the OSCCON  
register selects the system clock source that is used for  
the CPU and peripherals.  
• When the SCS bits of the OSCCON register = 00,  
the system clock source is determined by value of  
the FOSC<1:0> bits in the Configuration Words.  
• Default system oscillator determined by FOSC  
bits in Configuration Words  
• When the SCS bits of the OSCCON register = 1x,  
the system clock source is chosen by the internal  
oscillator frequency selected by the IRCF<3:0>  
bits of the OSCCON register. After a Reset, the  
SCS bits of the OSCCON register are always  
cleared.  
• Internal Oscillator Block (INTOSC)  
When switching between clock sources, a delay is  
required to allow the new clock to stabilize. These oscil-  
lator delays are shown in Table 5-2.

RESETS  
There are multiple ways to reset this device:  
• Power-on Reset (POR)  
• Brown-out Reset (BOR)  
• Low-Power Brown-out Reset (LPBOR)  
• MCLR Reset  
• WDT Reset  
RESETinstruction  
• Stack Overflow  
• Stack Underflow  
• Programming mode exit  
To allow VDD to stabilize, an optional Power-up Timer  
can be enabled to extend the Reset time after a BOR  
or POR event.  
A simplified block diagram of the On-chip Reset Circuit  
is shown in Figure 6-1.

Power-on Reset (POR)  
6.2  
Brown-Out Reset (BOR)  
The POR circuit holds the device in Reset until VDD has  
reached an acceptable level for minimum operation.  
Slow rising VDD, fast operating speeds or analog  
performance may require greater than minimum VDD.  
The PWRT, BOR or MCLR features can be used to  
extend the start-up period until all device operation  
conditions have been met.  
The BOR circuit holds the device in Reset when VDD  
reaches a selectable minimum level. Between the  
POR and BOR, complete voltage range coverage for  
execution protection can be implemented.  
The Brown-out Reset module has four operating  
modes controlled by the BOREN<1:0> bits in Configu-  
ration Words. The four operating modes are:  
• BOR is always on  
6.1.1  
POWER-UP TIMER (PWRT)  
• BOR is off when in Sleep  
• BOR is controlled by software  
• BOR is always off  
The Power-up Timer provides a nominal 64 ms  
time-out on POR or Brown-out Reset.  
The device is held in Reset as long as PWRT is active.  
The PWRT delay allows additional time for the VDD to  
rise to an acceptable level. The Power-up Timer is  
enabled by clearing the PWRTE bit in Configuration  
Words.  
Refer to Table 6-1 for more information.  
The Brown-out Reset voltage level is selectable by  
configuring the BORV bit in Configuration Words.  
A VDD noise rejection filter prevents the BOR from trig-  
gering on small events. If VDD falls below VBOR for a  
duration greater than parameter TBORDC, the device  
will reset. See Figure 6-2 for more information.  
The Power-up Timer starts after the release of the POR  
and BOR.  
For additional information, refer to Application Note  
AN607, “Power-up Trouble Shooting” (DS00607).

Note 1: In these specific cases, “Release of POR” and “Wake-up from Sleep”, there is no delay in start-up. The BOR  
ready flag, (BORRDY = 1), will be set before the CPU is ready to execute instructions because the BOR  
circuit is forced on by the BOREN<1:0> bits.  
6.2.1  
BOR IS ALWAYS ON  
6.2.3  
BOR CONTROLLED BY SOFTWARE  
When the BOREN bits of Configuration Words are pro-  
grammed to ‘11’, the BOR is always on. The device  
start-up will be delayed until the BOR is ready and VDD  
is higher than the BOR threshold.  
When the BOREN bits of Configuration Words are  
programmed to ‘01’, the BOR is controlled by the  
SBOREN bit of the BORCON register. The device  
start-up is not delayed by the BOR ready condition or  
the VDD level.  
BOR protection is active during Sleep. The BOR does  
not delay wake-up from Sleep.  
BOR protection begins as soon as the BOR circuit is  
ready. The status of the BOR circuit is reflected in the  
BORRDY bit of the BORCON register.  
6.2.2  
BOR IS OFF IN SLEEP  
When the BOREN bits of Configuration Words are pro-  
grammed to ‘10’, the BOR is on, except in Sleep. The  
device start-up will be delayed until the BOR is ready  
and VDD is higher than the BOR threshold.  
BOR protection is unchanged by Sleep.  
BOR protection is not active during Sleep. The device  
wake-up will be delayed until the BOR is ready.

Low-Power Brown-out Reset  
(LPBOR)  
6.5  
Watchdog Timer (WDT) Reset  
The Watchdog Timer generates a Reset if the firmware  
does not issue a CLRWDTinstruction within the time-out  
period. The TO and PD bits in the STATUS register are  
changed to indicate the WDT Reset. See Section 9.0  
“Watchdog Timer” for more information.  
The Low-Power Brown-Out Reset (LPBOR) is an  
essential part of the Reset subsystem. Refer to  
Figure 6-1 to see how the BOR interacts with other  
modules.  
The LPBOR is used to monitor the external VDD pin.  
When too low of a voltage is detected, the device is  
held in Reset. When this occurs, a register bit (BOR) is  
changed to indicate that a BOR Reset has occurred.  
The same bit is set for both the BOR and the LPBOR.  
Refer to Register 6-2.  
6.6  
RESET Instruction  
A RESETinstruction will cause a device Reset. The RI  
bit in the PCON register will be set to ‘0’. See Table 6-4  
for default conditions after a RESET instruction has  
occurred.  
6.3.1  
ENABLING LPBOR  
6.7  
Stack Overflow/Underflow Reset  
The LPBOR is controlled by the LPBOR bit of  
Configuration Words. When the device is erased, the  
LPBOR module defaults to disabled.  
The device can reset when the Stack Overflows or  
Underflows. The STKOVF or STKUNF bits of the PCON  
register indicate the Reset condition. These Resets are  
enabled by setting the STVREN bit in Configuration  
Words. See Section 3.4.2 “Overflow/Underflow  
Reset” for more information.  
6.3.1.1  
LPBOR Module Output  
The output of the LPBOR module is a signal indicating  
whether or not a Reset is to be asserted. This signal is  
OR’d together with the Reset signal of the BOR mod-  
ule to provide the generic BOR signal which goes to  
the PCON register and to the power control block.  
6.8  
Programming Mode Exit  
Upon exit of Programming mode, the device will  
behave as if a POR had just occurred.  
6.4  
MCLR  
6.9  
Power-Up Timer  
The MCLR is an optional external input that can reset  
the device. The MCLR function is controlled by the  
MCLRE bit of Configuration Words and the LVP bit of  
Configuration Words (Table 6-2).  
The Power-up Timer optionally delays device execution  
after a BOR or POR event. This timer is typically used to  
allow VDD to stabilize before allowing the device to start  
running.

6.10 Start-up Sequence  
Upon the release of a POR or BOR, the following must  
occur before the device will begin executing:  
1. Power-up Timer runs to completion (if enabled).  
2. MCLR must be released (if enabled).  
6.4.1  
MCLR ENABLED  
When MCLR is enabled and the pin is held low, the  
device is held in Reset. The MCLR pin is connected to  
VDD through an internal weak pull-up.  
The total time-out will vary based on oscillator configu-  
ration and Power-up Timer configuration. See  
Section 5.0 “Oscillator Module” for more informa-  
tion.  
The device has a noise filter in the MCLR Reset path.  
The filter will detect and ignore small pulses.  
The Power-up Timer runs independently of MCLR  
Reset. If MCLR is kept low long enough, the Power-up  
Timer will expire. Upon bringing MCLR high, the device  
will begin execution immediately (see Figure 6-3). This  
is useful for testing purposes or to synchronize more  
than one device operating in parallel.  
Note:  
A Reset does not drive the MCLR pin low.  
6.4.2  
MCLR DISABLED  
When MCLR is disabled, the pin functions as a general  
purpose input and the internal weak pull-up is under  
software control. See Section 11.2 “PORTA Regis-  
ters” for more information.

INTERRUPTS  
The interrupt feature allows certain events to preempt  
normal program flow. Firmware is used to determine  
the source of the interrupt and act accordingly. Some  
interrupts can be configured to wake the MCU from  
Sleep mode.  
This chapter contains the following information for  
Interrupts:  
• Operation  
• Interrupt Latency  
• Interrupts During Sleep  
• INT Pin  
• Automatic Context Saving  
Many peripherals produce interrupts. Refer to the  
corresponding chapters for details.  
A block diagram of the interrupt logic is shown in  
Figure 7-1.

Interrupt Latency  
Interrupts are disabled upon any device Reset. They  
are enabled by setting the following bits:  
Interrupt latency is defined as the time from when the  
interrupt event occurs to the time code execution at the  
interrupt vector begins. The latency for synchronous  
interrupts is 3 or 4 instruction cycles. For asynchronous  
interrupts, the latency is 3 to 5 instruction cycles,  
depending on when the interrupt occurs. See Figure 7-2  
and Figure 7.3 for more details.  
• GIE bit of the INTCON register  
• Interrupt Enable bit(s) for the specific interrupt  
event(s)  
• PEIE bit of the INTCON register (if the Interrupt  
Enable bit of the interrupt event is contained in the  
PIE1, PIE2 and PIE3 registers)  
The INTCON, PIR1, PIR2 and PIR3 registers record  
individual interrupts via interrupt flag bits. Interrupt flag  
bits will be set, regardless of the status of the GIE, PEIE  
and individual interrupt enable bits.  
The following events happen when an interrupt event  
occurs while the GIE bit is set:  
• Current prefetched instruction is flushed  
• GIE bit is cleared  
• Current Program Counter (PC) is pushed onto the  
stack  
• Critical registers are automatically saved to the  
shadow registers (See Section 7.5 “Automatic  
Context Saving”.”)  
• PC is loaded with the interrupt vector 0004h  
The firmware within the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR)  
should determine the source of the interrupt by polling  
the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bits must be  
cleared before exiting the ISR to avoid repeated  
interrupts. Because the GIE bit is cleared, any interrupt  
that occurs while executing the ISR will be recorded  
through its interrupt flag, but will not cause the  
processor to redirect to the interrupt vector.  
The RETFIE instruction exits the ISR by popping the  
previous address from the stack, restoring the saved  
context from the shadow registers and setting the GIE  
bit.  
For additional information on a specific interrupt’s  
operation, refer to its peripheral chapter.  
Note 1: Individual interrupt flag bits are set,  
regardless of the state of any other  
enable bits.  
2: All interrupts will be ignored while the GIE  
bit is cleared. Any interrupt occurring  
while the GIE bit is clear will be serviced  
when the GIE bit is set again.

Interrupts During Sleep  
Some interrupts can be used to wake from Sleep. To  
wake from Sleep, the peripheral must be able to  
operate without the system clock. The interrupt source  
must have the appropriate Interrupt Enable bit(s) set  
prior to entering Sleep.  
On waking from Sleep, if the GIE bit is also set, the  
processor will branch to the interrupt vector. Otherwise,  
the processor will continue executing instructions after  
the SLEEPinstruction. The instruction directly after the  
SLEEP instruction will always be executed before  
branching to the ISR. Refer to Section 8.0  
“Power-Down Mode (Sleep)” for more details.  
7.4  
INT Pin  
The INT pin can be used to generate an asynchronous  
edge-triggered interrupt. This interrupt is enabled by  
setting the INTE bit of the INTCON register. The  
INTEDG bit of the OPTION_REG register determines on  
which edge the interrupt will occur. When the INTEDG  
bit is set, the rising edge will cause the interrupt. When  
the INTEDG bit is clear, the falling edge will cause the  
interrupt. The INTF bit of the INTCON register will be set  
when a valid edge appears on the INT pin. If the GIE and  
INTE bits are also set, the processor will redirect  
program execution to the interrupt vector.  
7.5  
Automatic Context Saving  
Upon entering an interrupt, the return PC address is  
saved on the stack. Additionally, the following registers  
are automatically saved in the Shadow registers:  
• W register  
• STATUS register (except for TO and PD)  
• BSR register  
• FSR registers  
• PCLATH register  
Upon exiting the Interrupt Service Routine, these regis-  
ters are automatically restored. Any modifications to  
these registers during the ISR will be lost. If modifica-  
tions to any of these registers are desired, the corre-  
sponding Shadow register should be modified and the  
value will be restored when exiting the ISR. The  
Shadow registers are available in Bank 31 and are  
readable and writable. Depending on the user’s appli-  
cation, other registers may also need to be saved.

Note:  
Interrupt flag bits are set when an interrupt  
condition occurs, regardless of the state of  
its corresponding enable bit or the Global  
Interrupt Enable bit, GIE, of the INTCON  
register. User software should ensure the  
appropriate interrupt flag bits are clear  
prior to enabling an interrupt.

8.1  
Wake-up from Sleep  
8.0  
POWER-DOWN MODE (SLEEP)  
The device can wake-up from Sleep through one of the  
following events:  
The Power-Down mode is entered by executing a  
SLEEPinstruction.  
1. External Reset input on MCLR pin, if enabled  
2. BOR Reset, if enabled  
Upon entering Sleep mode, the following conditions exist:  
1. WDT will be cleared but keeps running, if  
enabled for operation during Sleep.  
3. POR Reset  
4. Watchdog Timer, if enabled  
5. Any external interrupt  
2. PD bit of the STATUS register is cleared.  
3. TO bit of the STATUS register is set.  
4. CPU clock is disabled.  
6. Interrupts by peripherals capable of running dur-  
ing Sleep (see individual peripheral for more  
information)  
5. 31 kHz LFINTOSC is unaffected and peripherals  
that operate from it may continue operation in  
Sleep.  
The first three events will cause a device Reset. The  
last three events are considered a continuation of pro-  
gram execution. To determine whether a device Reset  
or wake-up event occurred, refer to Section 6.11  
“Determining the Cause of a Reset”.  
6. ADC is unaffected, if the dedicated FRC clock is  
selected.  
7. I/O ports maintain the status they had before  
SLEEP was executed (driving high, low or  
high-impedance).  
When the SLEEPinstruction is being executed, the next  
instruction (PC + 1) is prefetched. For the device to  
wake-up through an interrupt event, the corresponding  
interrupt enable bit must be enabled. Wake-up will  
occur regardless of the state of the GIE bit. If the GIE  
bit is disabled, the device continues execution at the  
instruction after the SLEEPinstruction. If the GIE bit is  
enabled, the device executes the instruction after the  
SLEEPinstruction, the device will then call the Interrupt  
Service Routine. In cases where the execution of the  
instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the user  
should have a NOPafter the SLEEPinstruction.  
8. Resets other than WDT are not affected by  
Sleep mode.  
Refer to individual chapters for more details on  
peripheral operation during Sleep.  
To minimize current consumption, the following  
conditions should be considered:  
• I/O pins should not be floating  
• External circuitry sinking current from I/O pins  
• Internal circuitry sourcing current from I/O pins  
• Current draw from pins with internal weak pull-ups  
• Modules using 31 kHz LFINTOSC  
The WDT is cleared when the device wakes up from  
Sleep, regardless of the source of wake-up.  
• CWG, NCO and CLC modules using HFINTOSC  
8.1.1  
WAKE-UP USING INTERRUPTS  
I/O pins that are high-impedance inputs should be  
pulled to VDD or VSS externally to avoid switching  
currents caused by floating inputs.  
When global interrupts are disabled (GIE cleared) and  
any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit  
and interrupt flag bit set, one of the following will occur:  
Examples of internal circuitry that might be sourcing  
current include the FVR module. See Section 13.0  
“Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR)” for more  
information on this module.  
• If the interrupt occurs before the execution of a  
SLEEPinstruction:  
- SLEEPinstruction will execute as a NOP.  
- WDT and WDT prescaler will not be cleared  
- TO bit of the STATUS register will not be set  
- PD bit of the STATUS register will not be  
cleared.  
• If the interrupt occurs during or after the execu-  
tion of a SLEEPinstruction:  
- SLEEPinstruction will be completely exe-  
cuted  
- Device will immediately wake-up from Sleep  
- WDT and WDT prescaler will be cleared

Even if the flag bits were checked before executing a  
SLEEP instruction, it may be possible for flag bits to  
become set before the SLEEPinstruction completes. To  
determine whether a SLEEPinstruction executed, test  
the PD bit. If the PD bit is set, the SLEEP instruction  
was executed as a NOP.

PERIPHERAL USAGE IN SLEEP  
8.2  
Low-Power Sleep Mode  
Some peripherals that can operate in Sleep mode will  
not operate properly with the Low-Power Sleep mode  
selected. The LDO will remain in the Normal Power  
mode when those peripherals are enabled. The  
Low-Power Sleep mode is intended for use with these  
peripherals:  
The PIC12F1501 device contains an internal Low  
Dropout (LDO) voltage regulator, which allows the  
device I/O pins to operate at voltages up to 5.5V while  
the internal device logic operates at a lower voltage.  
The LDO and its associated reference circuitry must  
remain active when the device is in Sleep mode. The  
PIC12F1501 allows the user to optimize the operating  
current in Sleep, depending on the application  
requirements.  
• Brown-Out Reset (BOR)  
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
• External interrupt pin/Interrupt-on-change pins  
• Timer1 (with external clock source)  
A Low-Power Sleep mode can be selected by setting  
the VREGPM bit of the VREGCON register. With this  
bit set, the LDO and reference circuitry are placed in a  
low-power state when the device is in Sleep.  
The Complementary Waveform Generator (CWG), the  
Numerically Controlled Oscillator (NCO) and the Con-  
figurable Logic Cell (CLC) modules can utilize the  
HFINTOSC oscillator as either a clock source or as an  
input source. Under certain conditions, when the  
HFINTOSC is selected for use with the CWG, NCO or  
CLC modules, the HFINTOSC will remain active during  
Sleep. This will have a direct effect on the Sleep mode  
current.  
8.2.1  
SLEEP CURRENT VS. WAKE-UP  
TIME  
In the default operating mode, the LDO and reference  
circuitry remain in the normal configuration while in  
Sleep. The device is able to exit Sleep mode quickly  
since all circuits remain active. In Low-Power Sleep  
mode, when waking up from Sleep, an extra delay time  
is required for these circuits to return to the normal con-  
figuration and stabilize.  
Please refer to sections 22.5 “Operation During  
Sleep”, 23.7 “Operation In Sleep” and 24.10 “Oper-  
ation During Sleep” for more information.  
The Low-Power Sleep mode is beneficial for applica-  
tions that stay in Sleep mode for long periods of time.  
The Normal mode is beneficial for applications that  
need to wake from Sleep quickly and frequently.  
Note:  
The PIC12LF1501 does not have a con-  
figurable Low-Power Sleep mode.  
PIC12LF1501 is an unregulated device  
and is always in the lowest power state  
when in Sleep, with no wake-up time pen-  
alty. This device has a lower maximum  
VDD and I/O voltage than the  
PIC12F1501. See Section 25.0 “Electri-  
cal Specifications” for more information.

WATCHDOG TIMER  
The Watchdog Timer is a system timer that generates  
a Reset if the firmware does not issue a CLRWDT  
instruction within the time-out period. The Watchdog  
Timer is typically used to recover the system from  
unexpected events.  
The WDT has the following features:  
• Independent clock source  
• Multiple operating modes  
- WDT is always on  
- WDT is off when in Sleep  
- WDT is controlled by software  
- WDT is always off  
• Configurable time-out period is from 1 ms to 256  
seconds (typical)  
• Multiple Reset conditions  
• Operation during Sleep

Time-Out Period  
The WDT derives its time base from the 31 kHz  
LFINTOSC internal oscillator. Time intervals in this  
chapter are based on a nominal interval of 1 ms. See  
Section 27.0 “Electrical Specifications” for the  
LFINTOSC tolerances.  
The WDTPS bits of the WDTCON register set the  
time-out period from 1 ms to 256 seconds (nominal).  
After a Reset, the default time-out period is 2 seconds.  
9.4  
Clearing the WDT  
The WDT is cleared when any of the following condi-  
tions occur:  
9.2  
WDT Operating Modes  
The Watchdog Timer module has four operating modes  
controlled by the WDTE<1:0> bits in Configuration  
Words. See Table 9-1.  
• Any Reset  
CLRWDTinstruction is executed  
• Device enters Sleep  
• Device wakes up from Sleep  
• Oscillator fail  
9.2.1  
WDT IS ALWAYS ON  
When the WDTE bits of Configuration Words are set to  
11’, the WDT is always on.  
• WDT is disabled  
WDT protection is active during Sleep.  
See Table 9-2 for more information.  
9.2.2  
WDT IS OFF IN SLEEP  
9.5  
Operation During Sleep  
When the WDTE bits of Configuration Words are set to  
10’, the WDT is on, except in Sleep.  
When the device enters Sleep, the WDT is cleared. If  
the WDT is enabled during Sleep, the WDT resumes  
counting. When the device exits Sleep, the WDT is  
cleared again.  
WDT protection is not active during Sleep.  
9.2.3  
WDT CONTROLLED BY SOFTWARE  
When a WDT time-out occurs while the device is in  
Sleep, no Reset is generated. Instead, the device  
wakes up and resumes operation. The TO and PD bits  
in the STATUS register are changed to indicate the  
event. The RWDT bit in the PCON register can also be  
used. See Section 3.0 “Memory Organization” for  
more information.  
When the WDTE bits of Configuration Words are set to  
01’, the WDT is controlled by the SWDTEN bit of the  
WDTCON register.  
WDT protection is unchanged by Sleep. See Table 9-1  
for more details.

Control bits RD and WR initiate read and write,  
respectively. These bits cannot be cleared, only set, in  
software. They are cleared by hardware at completion  
of the read or write operation. The inability to clear the  
WR bit in software prevents the accidental, premature  
termination of a write operation.  
10.0 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY  
CONTROL  
The Flash program memory is readable and writable  
during normal operation over the full VDD range.  
Program memory is indirectly addressed using Special  
Function Registers (SFRs). The SFRs used to access  
program memory are:  
The WREN bit, when set, will allow a write operation to  
occur. On power-up, the WREN bit is clear. The  
WRERR bit is set when a write operation is interrupted  
by a Reset during normal operation. In these situations,  
following Reset, the user can check the WRERR bit  
and execute the appropriate error handling routine.  
• PMCON1  
• PMCON2  
• PMDATL  
• PMDATH  
• PMADRL  
• PMADRH  
The PMCON2 register is a write-only register. Attempting  
to read the PMCON2 register will return all ‘0’s.  
To enable writes to the program memory, a specific  
pattern (the unlock sequence), must be written to the  
PMCON2 register. The required unlock sequence  
prevents inadvertent writes to the program memory  
write latches and Flash program memory.  
When accessing the program memory, the  
PMDATH:PMDATL register pair forms a 2-byte word  
that holds the 14-bit data for read/write, and the  
PMADRH:PMADRL register pair forms a 2-byte word  
that holds the 15-bit address of the program memory  
location being read.  
10.2 Flash Program Memory Overview  
The write time is controlled by an on-chip timer. The write/  
erase voltages are generated by an on-chip charge  
pump.  
It is important to understand the Flash program memory  
structure for erase and programming operations. Flash  
program memory is arranged in rows. A row consists of  
a fixed number of 14-bit program memory words. A row  
is the minimum size that can be erased by user software.  
The Flash program memory can be protected in two  
ways; by code protection (CP bit in Configuration Words)  
and write protection (WRT<1:0> bits in Configuration  
Words).  
Code protection (CP = 0)(1), disables access, reading  
and writing, to the Flash program memory via external  
device programmers. Code protection does not affect  
the self-write and erase functionality. Code protection  
can only be reset by a device programmer performing  
a Bulk Erase to the device, clearing all Flash program  
memory, Configuration bits and User IDs.  
After a row has been erased, the user can reprogram  
all or a portion of this row. Data to be written into the  
program memory row is written to 14-bit wide data write  
latches. These write latches are not directly accessible  
to the user, but may be loaded via sequential writes to  
the PMDATH:PMDATL register pair.  
Note:  
If the user wants to modify only a portion  
of a previously programmed row, then the  
contents of the entire row must be read  
and saved in RAM prior to the erase.  
Then, new data and retained data can be  
written into the write latches to reprogram  
the row of Flash program memory. How-  
ever, any unprogrammed locations can be  
written without first erasing the row. In this  
case, it is not necessary to save and  
rewrite the other previously programmed  
locations.  
Write protection prohibits self-write and erase to a  
portion or all of the Flash program memory as defined  
by the bits WRT<1:0>. Write protection does not affect  
a device programmers ability to read, write or erase the  
device.  
Note 1: Code protection of the entire Flash  
program memory array is enabled by  
clearing the CP bit of Configuration Words.  
10.1 PMADRL and PMADRH Registers  
See Table 10-1 for Erase Row size and the number of  
write latches for Flash program memory.  
The PMADRH:PMADRL register pair can address up  
to a maximum of 16K words of program memory. When  
selecting a program address value, the MSB of the  
address is written to the PMADRH register and the LSB  
is written to the PMADRL register.

READING THE FLASH PROGRAM  
MEMORY  
To read a program memory location, the user must:  
1. Write the desired address to the

2. Clear the CFGS bit of the PMCON1 register.

Start  
Read Operation  
3. Then, set control bit RD of the PMCON1 register.  
Once the read control bit is set, the program memory  
Flash controller will use the second instruction cycle to  
read the data. This causes the second instruction  
immediately following the “BSF PMCON1,RD” instruction  
to be ignored. The data is available in the very next cycle,  
in the PMDATH:PMDATL register pair; therefore, it can  
be read as two bytes in the following instructions.

The two instructions following a program  
memory read are required to be NOPs.

FLASH MEMORY UNLOCK  
SEQUENCE  
FIGURE 10-3:  
FLASH PROGRAM  
MEMORY UNLOCK  
SEQUENCE FLOWCHART  
The unlock sequence is a mechanism that protects the  
Flash program memory from unintended self-write pro-  
gramming or erasing. The sequence must be executed  
and completed without interruption to successfully  
complete any of the following operations:  
Start  
Unlock Sequence  
• Row Erase  
• Load program memory write latches  
Write 055h to  
PMCON2  
• Write of program memory write latches to pro-  
gram memory  
• Write of program memory write latches to User  
IDs  
Write 0AAh to  
PMCON2  
The unlock sequence consists of the following steps:  
1. Write 55h to PMCON2  
Initiate  
Write or Erase operation  
(WR = 1)  
2. Write AAh to PMCON2  
3. Set the WR bit in PMCON1  
4. NOPinstruction  
5. NOPinstruction  
Instruction Fetched ignored  
NOPexecution forced  
Once the WR bit is set, the processor will always force  
two NOP instructions. When an Erase Row or Program  
Row operation is being performed, the processor will stall  
internal operations (typical 2 ms), until the operation is  
complete and then resume with the next instruction.  
When the operation is loading the program memory write  
latches, the processor will always force the two NOP  
instructions and continue uninterrupted with the next  
instruction.  
Instruction Fetched ignored  
NOPexecution forced  
End  
Unlock Sequence  
Since the unlock sequence must not be interrupted,  
global interrupts should be disabled prior to the unlock  
sequence and re-enabled after the unlock sequence is

MEMORY ERASE  
FLOWCHART  
While executing code, program memory can only be  
erased by rows. To erase a row:  
1. Load the PMADRH:PMADRL register pair with  
any address within the row to be erased.  
Start  
Erase Operation  
2. Clear the CFGS bit of the PMCON1 register.  
3. Set the FREE and WREN bits of the PMCON1  
register.  
Disable Interrupts  
4. Write 55h, then AAh, to PMCON2 (Flash  
programming unlock sequence).  
(GIE = 0)  
5. Set control bit WR of the PMCON1 register to  
begin the erase operation.  
Select  
Program or Configuration Memory  
(CFGS)  
See Example 10-2.  
After the “BSF PMCON1,WR” instruction, the processor  
requires two cycles to set up the erase operation. The  
user must place two NOPinstructions after the WR bit is  
set. The processor will halt internal operations for the  
typical 2 ms erase time. This is not Sleep mode as the  
clocks and peripherals will continue to run. After the  
erase cycle, the processor will resume operation with  
the third instruction after the PMCON1 write instruction.

The following steps should be completed to load the  
write latches and program a row of program memory.  
These steps are divided into two parts. First, each write  
latch is loaded with data from the PMDATH:PMDATL  
using the unlock sequence with LWLO = 1. When the  
last word to be loaded into the write latch is ready, the  
LWLO bit is cleared and the unlock sequence  
executed. This initiates the programming operation,  
writing all the latches into Flash program memory.  
10.2.4  
WRITING TO FLASH PROGRAM  
MEMORY  
Program memory is programmed using the following  
steps:  
1. Load the address in PMADRH:PMADRL of the  
row to be programmed.  
2. Load each write latch with data.  
3. Initiate a programming operation.  
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 until all data is written.  
Note:  
The special unlock sequence is required  
to load a write latch with data or initiate a  
Flash programming operation. If the  
unlock sequence is interrupted, writing to  
the latches or program memory will not be  
initiated.  
Before writing to program memory, the word(s) to be  
written must be erased or previously unwritten. Pro-  
gram memory can only be erased one row at a time. No  
automatic erase occurs upon the initiation of the write.  
Program memory can be written one or more words at  
a time. The maximum number of words written at one  
time is equal to the number of write latches. See  
Figure 10-5 (row writes to program memory with 16  
write latches) for more details.  
1. Set the WREN bit of the PMCON1 register.  
2. Clear the CFGS bit of the PMCON1 register.  
3. Set the LWLO bit of the PMCON1 register.  
When the LWLO bit of the PMCON1 register is  
1’, the write sequence will only load the write  
latches and will not initiate the write to Flash  
program memory.  
The write latches are aligned to the Flash row address  
boundary defined by the upper 11-bits of  
PMADRH:PMADRL, (PMADRH<6:0>:PMADRL<7:4>)  
with the lower 4-bits of PMADRL, (PMADRL<3:0>)  
determining the write latch being loaded. Write opera-  
tions do not cross these boundaries. At the completion  
of a program memory write operation, the data in the  
write latches is reset to contain 0x3FFF.  
4. Load the PMADRH:PMADRL register pair with  
the address of the location to be written.  
5. Load the PMDATH:PMDATL register pair with  
the program memory data to be written.  
6. Execute the unlock sequence (Section 10.2.2  
“Flash Memory Unlock Sequence”). The write  
latch is now loaded.  
7. Increment the PMADRH:PMADRL register pair  
to point to the next location.  
8. Repeat steps 5 through 7 until all but the last  
write latch has been loaded.  
9. Clear the LWLO bit of the PMCON1 register.  
When the LWLO bit of the PMCON1 register is  
0’, the write sequence will initiate the write to  
Flash program memory.  
10. Load the PMDATH:PMDATL register pair with  
the program memory data to be written.  
11. Execute the unlock sequence (Section 10.2.2  
“Flash Memory Unlock Sequence”). The  
entire program memory latch content is now  
written to Flash program memory.  
Note:  
The program memory write latches are  
reset to the blank state (0x3FFF) at the  
completion of every write or erase  
operation. As a result, it is not necessary  
to load all the program memory write  
latches. Unloaded latches will remain in  
the blank state.  
An example of the complete write sequence is shown in  
Example 10-3. The initial address is loaded into the  
PMADRH:PMADRL register pair; the data is loaded  
using indirect addressing.

Device ID/Revision ID and Configuration Words can be  
accessed when CFGS = 1 in the PMCON1 register.  
This is the region that would be pointed to by  
PC<15> = 1, but not all addresses are accessible.  
Different access may exist for reads and writes. Refer  
to Table 10-2.  
When read access is initiated on an address outside

10.5 Write Verify  
It is considered good programming practice to verify that  
program memory writes agree with the intended value.  
Since program memory is stored as a full page then the  
stored program memory contents are compared with the  
intended data stored in RAM after the last write is  
complete.

that pin cannot be used as a general purpose output.  
However, the pin can still be read.

A write operation to the LATx register has the same  
effect as a write to the corresponding PORTx register.  
A read of the LATx register reads of the values held in  
the I/O PORT latches, while a read of the PORTx  
register reads the actual I/O pin value.

Ports that support analog inputs have an associated  
ANSELx register. When an ANSEL bit is set, the digital  
input buffer associated with that bit is disabled.  
Disabling the input buffer prevents analog signal levels  
on the pin between a logic high and low from causing  
excessive current in the logic input circuitry. A  
simplified model of a generic I/O port, without the  
interfaces to other peripherals, is shown in Figure 11-1.

These bits have no effect on the values of any TRIS  
register. PORT and TRIS overrides will be routed to the  
correct pin. The unselected pin will be unaffected.

PORTA FUNCTIONS AND OUTPUT  
PRIORITIES  
11.2 PORTA Registers  
PORTA is a 6-bit wide, bidirectional port. The  
corresponding data direction register is TRISA  
(Register 11-3). Setting a TRISA bit (= 1) will make the  
corresponding PORTA pin an input (i.e., disable the  
output driver). Clearing a TRISA bit (= 0) will make the  
corresponding PORTA pin an output (i.e., enables  
output driver and puts the contents of the output latch  
on the selected pin). The exception is RA3, which is  
input only and its TRIS bit will always read as ‘1’.  
Example 11-1 shows how to initialize an I/O port.  
Each PORTA pin is multiplexed with other functions. The  
pins, their combined functions and their output priorities  
are shown in Table 11-2.  
When multiple outputs are enabled, the actual pin  
control goes to the peripheral with the highest priority.  
Analog input functions, such as ADC and comparator  
inputs, are not shown in the priority lists. These inputs  
are active when the I/O pin is set for Analog mode using  
the ANSELx registers. Digital output functions may  
control the pin when it is in Analog mode with the  
priority shown in Table 11-2.  
Reading the PORTA register (Register 11-2) reads the  
status of the pins, whereas writing to it will write to the  
PORT latch. All write operations are read-modify-write  
operations. Therefore, a write to a port implies that the  
port pins are read, this value is modified and then  
written to the PORT data latch (LATA).

Pin Name  
Function Priority  
The TRISA register (Register 11-3) controls the  
PORTA pin output drivers, even when they are being  
used as analog inputs. The user should ensure the bits  
in the TRISA register are maintained set when using  
them as analog inputs. I/O pins configured as analog  
input always read ‘0’.

The ANSELA register (Register 11-5) is used to  
configure the Input mode of an I/O pin to analog.  
Setting the appropriate ANSELA bit high will cause all  
digital reads on the pin to be read as ‘0’ and allow  
analog functions on the pin to operate correctly.  
RA2  
The state of the ANSELA bits has no effect on digital  
output functions. A pin with TRIS clear and ANSEL set  
will still operate as a digital output, but the Input mode  
will be analog. This can cause unexpected behavior  
when executing read-modify-write instructions on the  
affected port.

12.3 Interrupt Flags  
12.0 INTERRUPT-ON-CHANGE  
The IOCAFx and IOCBFx bits located in the IOCAF and  
IOCBF registers, respectively, are status flags that  
correspond to the interrupt-on-change pins of the  
associated port. If an expected edge is detected on an  
appropriately enabled pin, then the status flag for that pin  
will be set, and an interrupt will be generated if the IOCIE  
bit is set. The IOCIF bit of the INTCON register reflects  
the status of all IOCAFx and IOCBFx bits.  
The PORTA and PORTB pins can be configured to  
operate as Interrupt-On-Change (IOC) pins. An interrupt  
can be generated by detecting a signal that has either a  
rising edge or a falling edge. Any individual port pin, or  
combination of port pins, can be configured to generate  
an interrupt. The interrupt-on-change module has the  
following features:  
• Interrupt-on-Change enable (Master Switch)  
• Individual pin configuration  
12.4 Clearing Interrupt Flags  
• Rising and falling edge detection  
• Individual pin interrupt flags  
The individual status flags, (IOCAFx and IOCBFx bits),  
can be cleared by resetting them to zero. If another edge  
is detected during this clearing operation, the associated  
status flag will be set at the end of the sequence,  
regardless of the value actually being written.  
Figure 12-1 is a block diagram of the IOC module.  
12.1 Enabling the Module  
To allow individual port pins to generate an interrupt, the  
IOCIE bit of the INTCON register must be set. If the  
IOCIE bit is disabled, the edge detection on the pin will  
still occur, but an interrupt will not be generated.  
In order to ensure that no detected edge is lost while  
clearing flags, only AND operations masking out known  
changed bits should be performed. The following  
sequence is an example of what should be performed.  
EXAMPLE 12-1:  
CLEARING INTERRUPT  
FLAGS  
(PORTA EXAMPLE)  
12.2 Individual Pin Configuration  
For each port pin, a rising edge detector and a falling  
edge detector are present. To enable a pin to detect a  
rising edge, the associated bit of the IOCxP register is  
set. To enable a pin to detect a falling edge, the  
associated bit of the IOCxN register is set.  
MOVLW 0xff  
XORWF IOCAF, W  
ANDWF IOCAF, F  
A pin can be configured to detect rising and falling  
edges simultaneously by setting both associated bits of  
the IOCxP and IOCxN registers, respectively.  
12.5 Operation in Sleep  
The interrupt-on-change interrupt sequence will wake  
the device from Sleep mode, if the IOCIE bit is set.  
If an edge is detected while in Sleep mode, the IOCxF  
register will be updated prior to the first instruction  
executed out of Sleep.

The ADFVR<1:0> bits of the FVRCON register are  
used to enable and configure the gain amplifier settings  
for the reference supplied to the ADC module. Refer-  
ence Section 15.0 “Analog-to-Digital Converter  
(ADC) Module” for additional information.  
13.0 FIXED VOLTAGE REFERENCE  
(FVR)  
The Fixed Voltage Reference, or FVR, is a stable  
voltage reference, independent of VDD, with 1.024V,  
2.048V or 4.096V selectable output levels. The output  
of the FVR can be configured to supply a reference  
voltage to the following:  
The CDAFVR<1:0> bits of the FVRCON register are  
used to enable and configure the gain amplifier settings  
for the reference supplied to the comparator modules.  
Reference Section 17.0 “Comparator Module” for  
additional information.  
• ADC input channel  
• Comparator positive input  
• Comparator negative input  
13.2 FVR Stabilization Period  
The FVR can be enabled by setting the FVREN bit of  
the FVRCON register.  
When the Fixed Voltage Reference module is enabled, it  
requires time for the reference and amplifier circuits to  
stabilize. Once the circuits stabilize and are ready for use,  
the FVRRDY bit of the FVRCON register will be set. See  
Section 27.0 “Electrical Specifications” for the

The output of the FVR supplied to the ADC and  
comparators is routed through a programmable gain  
amplifier. Each amplifier can be programmed for a gain  
of 1x, 2x or 4x, to produce the three possible voltage  
levels.

TEMPERATURE CIRCUIT  
DIAGRAM  
14.0 TEMPERATURE INDICATOR  
MODULE  
This family of devices is equipped with a temperature  
circuit designed to measure the operating temperature  
of the silicon die. The circuit’s range of operating  
temperature falls between -40°C and +85°C. The  
output is a voltage that is proportional to the device  
temperature. The output of the temperature indicator is  
internally connected to the device ADC.  
VDD  
TSEN  
TSRNG  
The circuit may be used as a temperature threshold  
detector or a more accurate temperature indicator,  
depending on the level of calibration performed. A one-  
point calibration allows the circuit to indicate a  
temperature closely surrounding that point. A two-point  
calibration allows the circuit to sense the entire range  
of temperature more accurately. Reference Application  
Note AN1333, “Use and Calibration of the Internal  
Temperature Indicator” (DS01333) for more details  
regarding the calibration process.  
VOUT  
To ADC  
14.1 Circuit Operation  
14.2 Minimum Operating VDD  
Figure 14-1 shows a simplified block diagram of the  
temperature circuit. The proportional voltage output is  
achieved by measuring the forward voltage drop across  
multiple silicon junctions.  
When the temperature circuit is operated in low range,  
the device may be operated at any operating voltage  
that is within specifications.  
When the temperature circuit is operated in high range,  
the device operating voltage, VDD, must be high  
enough to ensure that the temperature circuit is cor-  
rectly biased.  
Equation 14-1 describes the output characteristics of  
the temperature indicator.  
EQUATION 14-1: VOUT RANGES  
Table 14-1 shows the recommended minimum VDD vs.  
range setting.  
High Range: VOUT = VDD - 4VT  
Low Range: VOUT = VDD - 2VT  
TABLE 14-1: RECOMMENDED VDD VS.  
RANGE  
Min. VDD, TSRNG = 1  
Min. VDD, TSRNG = 0  
The temperature sense circuit is integrated with the  
Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR) module. See  
Section 13.0 “Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR)” for  
more information.  
3.6V  
1.8V  
14.3 Temperature Output  
The output of the circuit is measured using the internal  
Analog-to-Digital Converter. A channel is reserved for  
the temperature circuit output. Refer to Section 15.0  
“Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) Module” for  
detailed information.  
The circuit is enabled by setting the TSEN bit of the  
FVRCON register. When disabled, the circuit draws no  
current.  
The circuit operates in either high or low range. The high  
range, selected by setting the TSRNG bit of the  
FVRCON register, provides a wider output voltage. This  
provides more resolution over the temperature range,  
but may be less consistent from part to part. This range  
requires a higher bias voltage to operate and thus, a  
higher VDD is needed.  
14.4 ADC Acquisition Time  
To ensure accurate temperature measurements, the  
user must wait at least 200 s after the ADC input  
multiplexer is connected to the temperature indicator  
output before the conversion is performed. In addition,  
the user must wait 200 s between sequential  
conversions of the temperature indicator output.  
The low range is selected by clearing the TSRNG bit of  
the FVRCON register. The low range generates a lower  
voltage drop and thus, a lower bias voltage is needed to  
operate the circuit. The low range is provided for low  
voltage operation.

The ADC can generate an interrupt upon completion of  
a conversion. This interrupt can be used to wake-up the  
device from Sleep.  
15.0 ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL  
CONVERTER (ADC) MODULE  
The Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) allows  
conversion of an analog input signal to a 10-bit binary  
representation of that signal. This device uses analog  
inputs, which are multiplexed into a single sample and  
hold circuit. The output of the sample and hold is  
connected to the input of the converter. The converter  
generates a 10-bit binary result via successive  
approximation and stores the conversion result into the  
ADC result registers (ADRESH:ADRESL register pair).  
Figure 15-1 shows the block diagram of the ADC.  
The ADC voltage reference is software selectable to be  
either internally generated or externally supplied.

CONVERSION CLOCK  
15.1 ADC Configuration  
The source of the conversion clock is software select-  
able via the ADCS bits of the ADCON1 register. There  
are seven possible clock options:  
When configuring and using the ADC the following  
functions must be considered:  
• Port configuration  
• FOSC/2  
• Channel selection  
• FOSC/4  
• ADC voltage reference selection  
• ADC conversion clock source  
• Interrupt control  
• FOSC/8  
• FOSC/16  
• FOSC/32  
• Result formatting  
• FOSC/64  
15.1.1  
PORT CONFIGURATION  
• FRC (dedicated internal oscillator)  
The ADC can be used to convert both analog and  
digital signals. When converting analog signals, the I/O  
pin should be configured for analog by setting the  
associated TRIS and ANSEL bits. Refer to  
Section 11.0 “I/O Ports” for more information.  
The time to complete one bit conversion is defined as  
TAD. One full 10-bit conversion requires 11.5 TAD peri-  
ods as shown in Figure 15-2.  
For correct conversion, the appropriate TAD specifica-  
tion must be met. Refer to the A/D conversion require-  
ments in Section 27.0 “Electrical Specifications” for  
more information. Table 15-1 gives examples of appro-  
priate ADC clock selections.  
Note:  
Analog voltages on any pin that is defined  
as a digital input may cause the input buf-  
fer to conduct excess current.  
Note:  
Unless using the FRC, any changes in the  
system clock frequency will change the  
ADC clock frequency, which may  
adversely affect the ADC result.  
15.1.2  
CHANNEL SELECTION  
There are 7 channel selections available:  
• AN<3:0> pins  
Temperature Indicator  
• DAC  
• FVR (Fixed Voltage Reference) Output  
Refer to Section 13.0 “Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR)”  
and Section 14.0 “Temperature Indicator Module” for  
more information on these channel selections.  
The CHS bits of the ADCON0 register determine which  
channel is connected to the sample and hold circuit.  
When changing channels, a delay is required before  
starting the next conversion. Refer to Section 15.2  
“ADC Operation” for more information.  
15.1.3  
ADC VOLTAGE REFERENCE  
The ADPREF bits of the ADCON1 register provides  
control of the positive voltage reference. The positive  
voltage reference can be:  
• VREF+ pin  
• VDD  
See Section 13.0 “Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR)”  
for more details on the Fixed Voltage Reference.

Note 1: The FRC source has a typical TAD time of 1.6 s for VDD.  
2: These values violate the minimum required TAD time.  
3: For faster conversion times, the selection of another clock source is recommended.  
4: The ADC clock period (TAD) and total ADC conversion time can be minimized when the ADC clock is derived from the  
system clock FOSC. However, the FRC clock source must be used when conversions are to be performed with the  
device in Sleep mode.

INTERRUPTS  
15.1.6  
RESULT FORMATTING  
The ADC module allows for the ability to generate an  
interrupt upon completion of an Analog-to-Digital  
conversion. The ADC Interrupt Flag is the ADIF bit in  
the PIR1 register. The ADC Interrupt Enable is the  
ADIE bit in the PIE1 register. The ADIF bit must be  
cleared in software.  
The 10-bit A/D conversion result can be supplied in two  
formats, left justified or right justified. The ADFM bit of  
the ADCON1 register controls the output format.  
Figure 15-3 shows the two output formats.  
Note 1: The ADIF bit is set at the completion of  
every conversion, regardless of whether  
or not the ADC interrupt is enabled.  
2: The ADC operates during Sleep only  
when the FRC oscillator is selected.  
This interrupt can be generated while the device is  
operating or while in Sleep. If the device is in Sleep, the  
interrupt will wake-up the device. Upon waking from  
Sleep, the next instruction following the SLEEPinstruc-  
tion is always executed. If the user is attempting to  
wake-up from Sleep and resume in-line code execu-  
tion, the GIE and PEIE bits of the INTCON register  
must be disabled. If the GIE and PEIE bits of the  
INTCON register are enabled, execution will switch to  
the Interrupt Service Routine.

ADC OPERATION DURING SLEEP  
15.2 ADC Operation  
The ADC module can operate during Sleep. This  
requires the ADC clock source to be set to the FRC  
option. When the FRC clock source is selected, the  
ADC waits one additional instruction before starting the  
conversion. This allows the SLEEP instruction to be  
executed, which can reduce system noise during the  
conversion. If the ADC interrupt is enabled, the device  
will wake-up from Sleep when the conversion  
completes. If the ADC interrupt is disabled, the ADC  
module is turned off after the conversion completes,  
although the ADON bit remains set.  
15.2.1  
STARTING A CONVERSION  
To enable the ADC module, the ADON bit of the  
ADCON0 register must be set to a ‘1’. Setting the GO/  
DONE bit of the ADCON0 register to a ‘1’ will start the  
Analog-to-Digital conversion.  
Note:  
The GO/DONE bit should not be set in the  
same instruction that turns on the ADC.  
Refer to Section 15.2.6 “A/D Conver-  
sion Procedure”.  
When the ADC clock source is something other than  
FRC, a SLEEP instruction causes the present conver-  
sion to be aborted and the ADC module is turned off,  
although the ADON bit remains set.  
15.2.2  
COMPLETION OF A CONVERSION  
When the conversion is complete, the ADC module will:  
• Clear the GO/DONE bit  
• Set the ADIF Interrupt Flag bit  
15.2.5  
AUTO-CONVERSION TRIGGER  
• Update the ADRESH and ADRESL registers with  
new conversion result  
The auto-conversion trigger allows periodic ADC mea-  
surements without software intervention. When a rising  
edge of the selected source occurs, the GO/DONE bit  
is set by hardware.  
15.2.3  
TERMINATING A CONVERSION  
If a conversion must be terminated before completion,  
the GO/DONE bit can be cleared in software. The  
ADRESH and ADRESL registers will be updated with  
the partially complete Analog-to-Digital conversion  
sample. Incomplete bits will match the last bit  
converted.  
The auto-conversion trigger source is selected with the  
TRIGSEL<3:0> bits of the ADCON2 register.  
Using the auto-conversion trigger does not assure  
proper ADC timing. It is the user’s responsibility to  
ensure that the ADC timing requirements are met.  
Note:  
A device Reset forces all registers to their  
Reset state. Thus, the ADC module is  
turned off and any pending conversion is  
terminated.  
Auto-conversion sources are:  
• TMR0  
• TMR1  
• TMR2  
• C1  
• CLC1  
• CLC2

source impedance is decreased, the acquisition time  
may be decreased. After the analog input channel is  
selected (or changed), an A/D acquisition must be  
done before the conversion can be started. To calculate  
the minimum acquisition time, Equation 15-1 may be  
used. This equation assumes that 1/2 LSb error is used  
(1,024 steps for the ADC). The 1/2 LSb error is the  
maximum error allowed for the ADC to meet its  
specified resolution.  
15.3 A/D Acquisition Requirements  
For the ADC to meet its specified accuracy, the charge  
holding capacitor (CHOLD) must be allowed to fully  
charge to the input channel voltage level. The Analog  
Input model is shown in Figure 15-4. The source  
impedance (RS) and the internal sampling switch (RSS)  
impedance directly affect the time required to charge  
the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling switch (RSS)  
impedance varies over the device voltage (VDD), refer  
to Figure 15-4. The maximum recommended  
impedance for analog sources is 10 k. As the  
EQUATION 15-1: ACQUISITION TIME EXAMPLE  
Temperature = 50°C and external impedance of 10k5.0V VDD  
Assumptions:  
TACQ = Amplifier Settling Time + Hold Capacitor Charging Time + Temperature Coefficient  
= TAMP + TC + TCOFF  
= 2µs + TC + Temperature - 25°C0.05µs/°C  
The value for TC can be approximated with the following equations:  
1
;[1] VCHOLD charged to within 1/2 lsb  
VAPPLIED1 -------------------------- = VCHOLD  
2n + 11  
TC

VAPPLIED 1 e

;combining [1] and [2]  
Tc  
--------  
RC  
1
= VAPPLIED1 --------------------------  
2n + 11  
VAPPLIED 1 e  
Note: Where n = number of bits of the ADC.  
Solving for TC:  
TC = CHOLDRIC + RSS + RSln(1/2047)  
= 12.5pF1k+ 7k+ 10kln(0.0004885)  
= 1.12µs  
Therefore:  
TACQ = 5µs + 1.12µs + 50°C- 25°C0.05µs/°C  
= 7.37µs  
Note 1: The reference voltage (VREF+) has no effect on the equation, since it cancels itself out.  
2: The charge holding capacitor (CHOLD) is not discharged after each conversion.  
3: The maximum recommended impedance for analog sources is 10 k. This is required to meet the pin  
leakage specification.

16.1 Output Voltage Selection  
16.0 DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG  
CONVERTER (DAC) MODULE  
The DAC has 32 voltage level ranges. The 32 levels  
are set with the DACR<4:0> bits of the DACCON1  
register.  
The Digital-to-Analog Converter supplies a variable  
voltage reference, ratiometric with the input source,  
with 32 selectable output levels.  
The DAC output voltage is determined by the following  
equations:  
The input of the DAC can be connected to:  
• External VREF+ pin  
• VDD supply voltage  
The output of the DAC can be configured to supply a  
reference voltage to the following:  
• Comparator positive input  
• ADC input channel  
• DACOUT1 pin  
• DACOUT2 pin  
The Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) can be enabled  
by setting the DACEN bit of the DACCON0 register.

16.2 Ratiometric Output Level  
16.3 DAC Voltage Reference Output  
The DAC output value is derived using a resistor ladder  
with each end of the ladder tied to a positive and  
negative voltage reference input source. If the voltage  
of either input source fluctuates, a similar fluctuation will  
result in the DAC output value.  
The DAC voltage can be output to the DACOUT1 and  
DACOUT2 pins by setting the respective DACOE1 and  
DACOE2 pins of the DACCON0 register. Selecting the  
DAC reference voltage for output on either DACOUTx  
pin automatically overrides the digital output buffer and  
digital input threshold detector functions of that pin.  
Reading the DACOUTx pin when it has been config-  
ured for DAC reference voltage output will always  
return a ‘0’.  
The value of the individual resistors within the ladder  
can be found in Section 27.0 “Electrical  
Specifications”.  
Due to the limited current drive capability, a buffer must  
be used on the DAC voltage reference output for  
external connections to either DACOUTx pin.  
Figure 16-2 shows an example buffering technique.

reference should be disabled.

SINGLE COMPARATOR  
17.0 COMPARATOR MODULE  
Comparators are used to interface analog circuits to a  
digital circuit by comparing two analog voltages and  
providing a digital indication of their relative magnitudes.  
Comparators are very useful mixed signal building  
blocks because they provide analog functionality  
independent of program execution. The analog  
comparator module includes the following features:  
VIN+

• Wake-up from Sleep  
• Programmable Speed/Power optimization  
• PWM shutdown  
Note:  
The black areas of the output of the

due to input offsets and response time.  
• Programmable and fixed voltage reference  
17.1  
Comparator Overview  
A single comparator is shown in Figure 17-1 along with  
the relationship between the analog input levels and  
the digital output. When the analog voltage at VIN+ is  
less than the analog voltage at VIN-, the output of the  
comparator is a digital low level. When the analog  
voltage at VIN+ is greater than the analog voltage at  
VIN-, the output of the comparator is a digital high level.  
The comparators available for this device are located in  
Table 17-1.

COMPARATOR OUTPUT POLARITY  
17.2 Comparator Control  
Inverting the output of the comparator is functionally  
equivalent to swapping the comparator inputs. The  
polarity of the comparator output can be inverted by  
setting the CxPOL bit of the CMxCON0 register.  
Clearing the CxPOL bit results in a non-inverted output.  
Each comparator has 2 control registers: CMxCON0 and  
CMxCON1.  
The CMxCON0 registers (see Register 17-1) contain  
Control and Status bits for the following:  
• Enable

COMPARATOR SPEED/POWER  
SELECTION  
17.2.1  
COMPARATOR ENABLE  
The trade-off between speed or power can be opti-  
mized during program execution with the CxSP control  
bit. The default state for this bit is ‘1’ which selects the  
normal speed mode. Device power consumption can  
be optimized at the cost of slower comparator propaga-  
tion delay by clearing the CxSP bit to ‘0’.  
Setting the CxON bit of the CMxCON0 register enables  
the comparator for operation. Clearing the CxON bit  
disables the comparator resulting in minimum current  
consumption.  
17.2.2  
COMPARATOR OUTPUT  
SELECTION  
The output of the comparator can be monitored by  
reading either the CxOUT bit of the CMxCON0 register  
or the MCxOUT bit of the CMOUT register. In order to  
make the output available for an external connection,  
the following conditions must be true:  
• CxOE bit of the CMxCON0 register must be set  
• Corresponding TRIS bit must be cleared  
• CxON bit of the CMxCON0 register must be set  
Note 1: The CxOE bit of the CMxCON0 register  
overrides the PORT data latch. Setting  
the CxON bit of the CMxCON0 register  
has no impact on the port override.  
2: The internal output of the comparator is  
latched with each instruction cycle.  
Unless otherwise specified, external  
outputs are not latched.

17.3 Comparator Hysteresis  
17.5 Comparator Interrupt  
A selectable amount of separation voltage can be  
added to the input pins of each comparator to provide a  
hysteresis function to the overall operation. Hysteresis  
is enabled by setting the CxHYS bit of the CMxCON0  
register.  
An interrupt can be generated upon a change in the  
output value of the comparator for each comparator, a  
rising edge detector and a falling edge detector are  
present.  
When either edge detector is triggered and its associ-  
ated enable bit is set (CxINTP and/or CxINTN bits of  
the CMxCON1 register), the Corresponding Interrupt  
Flag bit (CxIF bit of the PIR2 register) will be set.  
See Section 27.0 “Electrical Specifications” for  
more information.  
17.4 Timer1 Gate Operation  
To enable the interrupt, you must set the following bits:  
• CxON, CxPOL and CxSP bits of the CMxCON0  
register  
The output resulting from a comparator operation can  
be used as a source for gate control of Timer1. See  
Section 19.5 “Timer1 Gate” for more information.  
This feature is useful for timing the duration or interval  
of an analog event.  
• CxIE bit of the PIE2 register  
• CxINTP bit of the CMxCON1 register (for a rising  
edge detection)  
It is recommended that the comparator output be syn-  
chronized to Timer1. This ensures that Timer1 does not  
increment while a change in the comparator is occur-  
ring.  
• CxINTN bit of the CMxCON1 register (for a falling  
edge detection)  
• PEIE and GIE bits of the INTCON register  
The associated interrupt flag bit, CxIF bit of the PIR2  
register, must be cleared in software. If another edge is  
detected while this flag is being cleared, the flag will still  
be set at the end of the sequence.  
17.4.1  
COMPARATOR OUTPUT  
SYNCHRONIZATION  
The output from a comparator can be synchronized  
with Timer1 by setting the CxSYNC bit of the  
CMxCON0 register.  
Note:  
Although a comparator is disabled, an  
interrupt can be generated by changing  
the output polarity with the CxPOL bit of  
the CMxCON0 register, or by switching  
the comparator on or off with the CxON bit  
of the CMxCON0 register.  
Once enabled, the comparator output is latched on the  
falling edge of the Timer1 source clock. If a prescaler is  
used with Timer1, the comparator output is latched after  
the prescaling function. To prevent a race condition, the  
comparator output is latched on the falling edge of the  
Timer1 clock source and Timer1 increments on the  
rising edge of its clock source. See the Comparator  
Block Diagram (Figure 17-2) and the Timer1 Block  
Diagram (Figure 19-1) for more information.  
17.6 Comparator Positive Input  
Selection  
Configuring the CxPCH<1:0> bits of the CMxCON1  
register directs an internal voltage reference or an  
analog pin to the non-inverting input of the comparator:  
• CxIN+ analog pin  
• DAC  
• FVR (Fixed Voltage Reference)  
• VSS (Ground)  
See Section 13.0 “Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR)”  
for more information on the Fixed Voltage Reference  
module.  
See Section 16.0 “Digital-to-Analog Converter  
(DAC) Module” for more information on the DAC input  
signal.  
Any time the comparator is disabled (CxON = 0), all  
comparator inputs are disabled.

Selection  
17.9 Analog Input Connection  
Considerations  
The CxNCH<1:0> bits of the CMxCON0 register direct  
one of the input sources to the comparator inverting  
input.  
A simplified circuit for an analog input is shown in  
Figure 17-3. Since the analog input pins share their  
connection with a digital input, they have reverse  
biased ESD protection diodes to VDD and VSS. The  
analog input, therefore, must be between VSS and VDD.  
If the input voltage deviates from this range by more  
than 0.6V in either direction, one of the diodes is for-  
ward biased and a latch-up may occur.  
Note:  
To use CxIN+ and CxINx- pins as analog  
input, the appropriate bits must be set in  
the ANSEL register and the correspond-  
ing TRIS bits must also be set to disable  
the output drivers.  
A maximum source impedance of 10 kis recommended  
for the analog sources. Also, any external component  
connected to an analog input pin, such as a capacitor or  
a Zener diode, should have very little leakage current to  
minimize inaccuracies introduced.  
17.8 Comparator Response Time  
The comparator output is indeterminate for a period of  
time after the change of an input source or the selection  
of a new reference voltage. This period is referred to as  
the response time. The response time of the comparator  
differs from the settling time of the voltage reference.  
Therefore, both of these times must be considered when  
determining the total response time to a comparator  
input change. See the Comparator and Voltage Refer-  
ence Specifications in Section 27.0 “Electrical Specifi-  
cations” for more details.  
Note 1: When reading a PORT register, all pins  
configured as analog inputs will read as a  
0’. Pins configured as digital inputs will  
convert as an analog input, according to  
the input specification.  
2: Analog levels on any pin defined as a  
digital input, may cause the input buffer to  
consume more current than is specified.

8-BIT COUNTER MODE  
18.0 TIMER0 MODULE  
In 8-Bit Counter mode, the Timer0 module will increment  
on every rising or falling edge of the T0CKI pin.  
The Timer0 module is an 8-bit timer/counter with the  
following features:  
8-Bit Counter mode using the T0CKI pin is selected by  
setting the TMR0CS bit in the OPTION_REG register to  
1’.  
• 8-bit timer/counter register (TMR0)  
• 8-bit prescaler (independent of Watchdog Timer)  
• Programmable internal or external clock source  
• Programmable external clock edge selection  
• Interrupt on overflow  
The rising or falling transition of the incrementing edge  
for either input source is determined by the TMR0SE bit  
in the OPTION_REG register.  
• TMR0 can be used to gate Timer1  
Figure 18-1 is a block diagram of the Timer0 module.  
18.1 Timer0 Operation  
The Timer0 module can be used as either an 8-bit timer  
or an 8-bit counter.  
18.1.1  
8-BIT TIMER MODE  
The Timer0 module will increment every instruction  
cycle, if used without a prescaler. 8-Bit Timer mode is  
selected by clearing the TMR0CS bit of the  
OPTION_REG register.  
When TMR0 is written, the increment is inhibited for  
two instruction cycles immediately following the write.  
Note:  
The value written to the TMR0 register  
can be adjusted, in order to account for  
the two instruction cycle delay when  
TMR0 is written.

18.1.3  
SOFTWARE PROGRAMMABLE  
PRESCALER  
A software programmable prescaler is available for  
exclusive use with Timer0. The prescaler is enabled by  
clearing the PSA bit of the OPTION_REG register.  
Note:  
The Watchdog Timer (WDT) uses its own  
independent prescaler.  
There are 8 prescaler options for the Timer0 module  
ranging from 1:2 to 1:256. The prescale values are  
selectable via the PS<2:0> bits of the OPTION_REG  
register. In order to have a 1:1 prescaler value for the  
Timer0 module, the prescaler must be disabled by set-  
ting the PSA bit of the OPTION_REG register.  
The prescaler is not readable or writable. All instructions  
writing to the TMR0 register will clear the prescaler.  
18.1.4  
TIMER0 INTERRUPT  
Timer0 will generate an interrupt when the TMR0  
register overflows from FFh to 00h. The TMR0IF  
interrupt flag bit of the INTCON register is set every  
time the TMR0 register overflows, regardless of  
whether or not the Timer0 interrupt is enabled. The  
TMR0IF bit can only be cleared in software. The Timer0  
interrupt enable is the TMR0IE bit of the INTCON  
register.  
Note:  
The Timer0 interrupt cannot wake the  
processor from Sleep since the timer is  
frozen during Sleep.  
18.1.5  
8-BIT COUNTER MODE  
SYNCHRONIZATION  
When in 8-Bit Counter mode, the incrementing edge on  
the T0CKI pin must be synchronized to the instruction  
clock. Synchronization can be accomplished by  
sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and Q4 cycles  
of the instruction clock. The high and low periods of the  
external clocking source must meet the timing  
requirements as shown in Section 27.0 “Electrical  
Specifications”.  
18.1.6  
OPERATION DURING SLEEP  
Timer0 cannot operate while the processor is in Sleep  
mode. The contents of the TMR0 register will remain  
unchanged while the processor is in Sleep mode.

19.1 Timer1 Operation  
19.2 Clock Source Selection  
The Timer1 module is a 16-bit incrementing counter  
which is accessed through the TMR1H:TMR1L register  
pair. Writes to TMR1H or TMR1L directly update the  
counter.  
The TMR1CS<1:0> bits of the T1CON register are used  
to select the clock source for Timer1. Table 19-2  
displays the clock source selections.  
19.2.1  
INTERNAL CLOCK SOURCE  
When used with an internal clock source, the module is  
a timer and increments on every instruction cycle.  
When used with an external clock source, the module  
can be used as either a timer or counter and incre-  
ments on every selected edge of the external source.  
When the internal clock source is selected the  
TMR1H:TMR1L register pair will increment on multiples  
of FOSC as determined by the Timer1 prescaler.  
When the FOSC internal clock source is selected, the  
Timer1 register value will increment by four counts every  
instruction clock cycle. Due to this condition, a 2 LSB  
error in resolution will occur when reading the Timer1  
value. To utilize the full resolution of Timer1, an  
asynchronous input signal must be used to gate the  
Timer1 clock input.  
Timer1 is enabled by configuring the TMR1ON and  
TMR1GE bits in the T1CON and T1GCON registers,  
respectively. Table 19-1 displays the Timer1 enable  
selections.

When enabled to count, Timer1 is incremented on the  
rising edge of the external clock input T1CKI. The  
external clock source can be synchronized to the  
microcontroller system clock or it can run  
asynchronously.

Note:  
In Counter mode, a falling edge must be  
registered by the counter prior to the first  
incrementing rising edge after any one or  
more of the following conditions:  
• Timer1 enabled after POR  
• Write to TMR1H or TMR1L  
• Timer1 is disabled  
• Timer1 is disabled (TMR1ON = 0)  
when T1CKI is high then Timer1 is  
enabled (TMR1ON=1) when T1CKI is  
low.

source. When Timer1 Gate Enable mode is disabled,  
no incrementing will occur and Timer1 will hold the  
current count. See Figure 19-3 for timing details.  
19.3 Timer1 Prescaler  
Timer1 has four prescaler options allowing 1, 2, 4 or 8  
divisions of the clock input. The T1CKPS bits of the  
T1CON register control the prescale counter. The  
prescale counter is not directly readable or writable;  
however, the prescaler counter is cleared upon a write to  
TMR1H or TMR1L.

If control bit T1SYNC of the T1CON register is set, the  
external clock input is not synchronized. The timer  
increments asynchronously to the internal phase  
clocks. If the external clock source is selected then the  
timer will continue to run during Sleep and can  
generate an interrupt on overflow, which will wake-up  
the processor. However, special precautions in  
software are needed to read/write the timer (see  
Section 19.4.1 “Reading and Writing Timer1 in  
Asynchronous Counter Mode”).

TIMER1 GATE SOURCE  
SELECTION  
Timer1 gate source selections are shown in Table 19-4.  
Source selection is controlled by the T1GSS<1:0> bits  
of the T1GCON register. The polarity for each available  
source is also selectable. Polarity selection is controlled  
by the T1GPOL bit of the T1GCON register.  
Note:  
When switching from synchronous to  
asynchronous operation, it is possible to  
skip an increment. When switching from  
asynchronous to synchronous operation,  
it is possible to produce an additional  
increment.

Reading TMR1H or TMR1L while the timer is running  
from an external asynchronous clock will ensure a valid  
read (taken care of in hardware). However, the user  
should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer in two  
8-bit values itself, poses certain problems, since the  
timer may overflow between the reads.  
Reserved  
For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop  
the timer and write the desired values. A write  
contention may occur by writing to the timer registers,  
while the register is incrementing. This may produce an  
unpredictable value in the TMR1H:TMR1L register pair.  
19.5 Timer1 Gate  
Timer1 can be configured to count freely or the count  
can be enabled and disabled using Timer1 gate  
circuitry. This is also referred to as Timer1 Gate Enable.  
Timer1 gate can also be driven by multiple selectable  
sources.  
19.5.1  
TIMER1 GATE ENABLE  
The Timer1 Gate Enable mode is enabled by setting  
the TMR1GE bit of the T1GCON register. The polarity  
of the Timer1 Gate Enable mode is configured using  
the T1GPOL bit of the T1GCON register.

T1G Pin Gate Operation  
19.5.5  
TIMER1 GATE VALUE STATUS  
The T1G pin is one source for Timer1 Gate Control. It  
can be used to supply an external source to the Timer1  
gate circuitry.  
When Timer1 Gate Value Status is utilized, it is possible  
to read the most current level of the gate control value.  
The value is stored in the T1GVAL bit in the T1GCON  
register. The T1GVAL bit is valid even when the Timer1  
gate is not enabled (TMR1GE bit is cleared).  
19.5.2.2  
Timer0 Overflow Gate Operation  
When Timer0 increments from FFh to 00h,  
low-to-high pulse will automatically be generated and  
internally supplied to the Timer1 gate circuitry.  
a
19.5.6  
TIMER1 GATE EVENT INTERRUPT  
When Timer1 Gate Event Interrupt is enabled, it is pos-  
sible to generate an interrupt upon the completion of a  
gate event. When the falling edge of T1GVAL occurs,  
the TMR1GIF flag bit in the PIR1 register will be set. If  
the TMR1GIE bit in the PIE1 register is set, then an  
interrupt will be recognized.  
19.5.3  
TIMER1 GATE TOGGLE MODE  
When Timer1 Gate Toggle mode is enabled, it is possi-  
ble to measure the full-cycle length of a Timer1 gate  
signal, as opposed to the duration of a single level  
pulse.  
The TMR1GIF flag bit operates even when the Timer1  
gate is not enabled (TMR1GE bit is cleared).  
The Timer1 gate source is routed through a flip-flop that  
changes state on every incrementing edge of the sig-  
nal. See Figure 19-4 for timing details.  
Timer1 Gate Toggle mode is enabled by setting the  
T1GTM bit of the T1GCON register. When the T1GTM  
bit is cleared, the flip-flop is cleared and held clear. This  
is necessary in order to control which edge is  
measured.  
Note:  
Enabling Toggle mode at the same time  
as changing the gate polarity may result in  
indeterminate operation.  
19.5.4  
TIMER1 GATE SINGLE-PULSE  
MODE  
When Timer1 Gate Single-Pulse mode is enabled, it is  
possible to capture a single pulse gate event. Timer1  
Gate Single-Pulse mode is first enabled by setting the  
T1GSPM bit in the T1GCON register. Next, the  
T1GGO/DONE bit in the T1GCON register must be set.  
The Timer1 will be fully enabled on the next incrementing  
edge. On the next trailing edge of the pulse, the  
T1GGO/DONE bit will automatically be cleared. No other  
gate events will be allowed to increment Timer1 until the  
T1GGO/DONE bit is once again set in software. See  
Figure 19-5 for timing details.  
If the Single Pulse Gate mode is disabled by clearing the  
T1GSPM bit in the T1GCON register, the T1GGO/DONE  
bit should also be cleared.  
Enabling the Toggle mode and the Single-Pulse mode  
simultaneously will permit both sections to work  
together. This allows the cycle times on the Timer1 gate  
source to be measured. See Figure 19-6 for timing  
details.

ALTERNATE PIN LOCATIONS  
19.6 Timer1 Interrupt  
This module incorporates I/O pins that can be moved to  
other locations with the use of the alternate pin function  
register, APFCON. To determine which pins can be  
moved and what their default locations are upon a  
Reset, see Section 11.1 “Alternate Pin Function” for  
more information.  
The Timer1 register pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) increments  
to FFFFh and rolls over to 0000h. When Timer1 rolls  
over, the Timer1 interrupt flag bit of the PIR1 register is  
set. To enable the interrupt on rollover, you must set  
these bits:  
• TMR1ON bit of the T1CON register  
• TMR1IE bit of the PIE1 register  
• PEIE bit of the INTCON register  
• GIE bit of the INTCON register  
The interrupt is cleared by clearing the TMR1IF bit in  
the Interrupt Service Routine.  
Note:  
The TMR1H:TMR1L register pair and the  
TMR1IF bit should be cleared before  
enabling interrupts.  
19.7 Timer1 Operation During Sleep  
Timer1 can only operate during Sleep when setup in  
Asynchronous Counter mode. In this mode, an external  
crystal or clock source can be used to increment the  
counter. To set up the timer to wake the device:  
• TMR1ON bit of the T1CON register must be set  
• TMR1IE bit of the PIE1 register must be set  
• PEIE bit of the INTCON register must be set  
• T1SYNC bit of the T1CON register must be set  
• TMR1CS bits of the T1CON register must be  
configured  
The device will wake-up on an overflow and execute  
the next instructions. If the GIE bit of the INTCON  
register is set, the device will call the Interrupt Service  
Routine.  
Timer1 oscillator will continue to operate in Sleep  
regardless of the T1SYNC bit setting.

20.0 TIMER2 MODULE  
The Timer2 module incorporates the following features:  
• 8-bit Timer and Period registers (TMR2 and PR2,  
respectively)  
• Readable and writable (both registers)  
• Software programmable prescaler (1:1, 1:4, 1:16,  
and 1:64)  
• Software programmable postscaler (1:1 to 1:16)  
• Interrupt on TMR2 match with PR2, respectively

20.1 Timer2 Operation  
20.3 Timer2 Output  
The clock input to the Timer2 module is the system  
instruction clock (FOSC/4).  
The unscaled output of TMR2 is available primarily to  
the PWMx module, where it is used as a time base for  
operation.  
TMR2 increments from 00h on each clock edge.  
A 4-bit counter/prescaler on the clock input allows direct  
input, divide-by-4 and divide-by-16 prescale options.  
These options are selected by the prescaler control bits,  
T2CKPS<1:0> of the T2CON register. The value of  
TMR2 is compared to that of the Period register, PR2, on  
each clock cycle. When the two values match, the  
comparator generates a match signal as the timer  
output. This signal also resets the value of TMR2 to 00h  
on the next cycle and drives the output  
20.4 Timer2 Operation During Sleep  
Timer2 cannot be operated while the processor is in  
Sleep mode. The contents of the TMR2 and PR2  
registers will remain unchanged while the processor is  
in Sleep mode.  
counter/postscaler  
(see  
Section 20.2  
“Timer2  
Interrupt”).  
The TMR2 and PR2 registers are both directly readable  
and writable. The TMR2 register is cleared on any  
device Reset, whereas the PR2 register initializes to  
FFh. Both the prescaler and postscaler counters are  
cleared on the following events:  
• a write to the TMR2 register  
• a write to the T2CON register  
• Power-on Reset (POR)  
• Brown-out Reset (BOR)  
• MCLR Reset  
• Watchdog Timer (WDT) Reset  
• Stack Overflow Reset  
• Stack Underflow Reset  
RESETInstruction  
Note:  
TMR2 is not cleared when T2CON is  
written.  
20.2 Timer2 Interrupt  
Timer2 can also generate an optional device interrupt.  
The Timer2 output signal (TMR2-to-PR2 match)  
provides the input for the 4-bit counter/postscaler. This  
counter generates the TMR2 match interrupt flag which  
is latched in TMR2IF of the PIR1 register. The interrupt  
is enabled by setting the TMR2 Match Interrupt Enable  
bit, TMR2IE of the PIE1 register.  
A range of 16 postscale options (from 1:1 through 1:16  
inclusive) can be selected with the postscaler control  
bits, T2OUTPS<3:0>, of the T2CON register.

When TMR2 is equal to PR2, the following three events  
occur on the next increment cycle:  
21.1 PWMx Pin Configuration  
All PWM outputs are multiplexed with the PORT data  
latch. The user must configure the pins as outputs by  
clearing the associated TRIS bits.  
• TMR2 is cleared  
• The PWM output is active. (Exception: When the  
PWM duty cycle = 0%, the PWM output will  
remain inactive.)  
Note:  
Clearing the PWMxOE bit will relinquish  
control of the PWMx pin.  
• The PWMxDCH and PWMxDCL register values  
are latched into the buffers.  
21.1.1  
FUNDAMENTAL OPERATION  
The PWM module produces a 10-bit resolution output.  
Timer2 and PR2 set the period of the PWM. The  
PWMxDCL and PWMxDCH registers configure the  
duty cycle. The period is common to all PWM modules,  
whereas the duty cycle is independently controlled.  
Note:  
The Timer2 postscaler has no effect on  
the PWM operation.  
21.1.4  
PWM DUTY CYCLE  
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing a 10-bit  
value to the PWMxDCH and PWMxDCL register pair.  
The PWMxDCH register contains the eight MSbs and  
the PWMxDCL<7:6>, the two LSbs. The PWMxDCH  
and PWMxDCL registers can be written to at any time.  
Note:  
The Timer2 postscaler is not used in the  
determination of the PWM frequency. The  
postscaler could be used to have a servo  
update rate at a different frequency than  
the PWM output.  
Equation 21-2 is used to calculate the PWM pulse  
width.  
All PWM outputs associated with Timer2 are set when  
TMR2 is cleared. Each PWMx is cleared when TMR2  
is equal to the value specified in the corresponding  
PWMxDCH (8 MSb) and PWMxDCL<7:6> (2 LSb) reg-  
isters. When the value is greater than or equal to PR2,  
the PWM output is never cleared (100% duty cycle).  
Equation 21-3 is used to calculate the PWM duty cycle  
ratio.  
EQUATION 21-2: PULSE WIDTH  
Note:  
The PWMxDCH and PWMxDCL registers  
are double buffered. The buffers are  
updated when Timer2 matches PR2. Care  
should be taken to update both registers  
before the timer match occurs.

21.1.3  
PWM PERIOD  
The PWM period is specified by the PR2 register of  
Timer2. The PWM period can be calculated using the  
formula of Equation 21-1.  
The 8-bit timer TMR2 register is concatenated with the  
two Least Significant bits of 1/FOSC, adjusted by the  
Timer2 prescaler to create the 10-bit time base. The  
system clock is used if the Timer2 prescaler is set to  
1:1.

PWM RESOLUTION  
The resolution determines the number of available duty  
cycles for a given period. For example, a 10-bit resolu-  
tion will result in 1024 discrete duty cycles, whereas an  
8-bit resolution will result in 256 discrete duty cycles.  
The maximum PWM resolution is 10 bits when PR2 is  
255. The resolution is a function of the PR2 register  
value as shown by Equation 21-4.

OPERATION IN SLEEP MODE  
In Sleep mode, the TMR2 register will not increment  
and the state of the module will not change. If the  
PWMx pin is driving a value, it will continue to drive that  
value. When the device wakes up, TMR2 will continue  
from its previous state.  
21.1.7  
CHANGES IN SYSTEM CLOCK  
FREQUENCY  
The PWM frequency is derived from the system clock  
frequency (FOSC). Any changes in the system clock fre-  
quency will result in changes to the PWM frequency.  
Refer to Section 5.0 “Oscillator Module” for addi-  
tional details.  
21.1.8  
EFFECTS OF RESET  
Any Reset will force all ports to Input mode and the  
PWM registers to their Reset states.

SETUP FOR PWM OPERATION  
USING PWMx PINS  
The following steps should be taken when configuring  
the module for PWM operation using the PWMx pins:  
1. Disable the PWMx pin output driver(s) by setting  
the associated TRIS bit(s).  
2. Clear the PWMxCON register.  
3. Load the PR2 register with the PWM period  
value.  
4. Clear the PWMxDCH register and bits <7:6> of  
the PWMxDCL register.  
5. Configure and start Timer2:  
• Clear the TMR2IF interrupt flag bit of the PIR1  
register. See Note below.  
• Configure the T2CKPS bits of the T2CON register  
with the Timer2 prescale value.  
• Enable Timer2 by setting the TMR2ON bit of the  
T2CON register.  
6. Enable PWM output pin and wait until Timer2  
overflows, TMR2IF bit of the PIR1 register is set.  
See Note below.  
7. Enable the PWMx pin output driver(s) by clear-  
ing the associated TRIS bit(s) and setting the  
PWMxOE bit of the PWMxCON register.  
8. Configure the PWM module by loading the  
PWMxCON register with the appropriate values.  
Note 1: In order to send a complete duty cycle  
and period on the first PWM output, the  
above steps must be followed in the order  
given. If it is not critical to start with a  
complete PWM signal, then move Step 8  
to replace Step 4.  
2: For operation with other peripherals only,  
disable PWMx pin outputs.

22.1.1  
DATA SELECTION  
22.1 CLCx Setup  
There are 16 signals available as inputs to the configu-  
rable logic. Four 8-input multiplexers are used to select  
the inputs to pass on to the next stage. The 16 inputs to  
the multiplexers are arranged in groups of four. Each  
group is available to two of the four multiplexers, in  
each case, paired with a different group. This arrange-  
ment makes possible selection of up to two from a  
group without precluding a selection from another  
group.  
Programming the CLCx module is performed by config-  
uring the 4 stages in the logic signal flow. The 4 stages  
are:  
• Data selection  
• Data gating  
• Logic function selection  
• Output polarity  
Each stage is setup at run time by writing to the corre-  
sponding CLCx Special Function Registers. This has  
the added advantage of permitting logic reconfiguration  
on-the-fly during program execution.  
Data inputs are selected with the CLCxSEL0 and  
CLCxSEL1 registers (Register 22-3 and Register 22-4,  
respectively).  
Data inputs are selected with CLCxSEL0 and  
CLCxSEL1 registers (Register 22-3 and Register 22-4,  
respectively).  
Data selection is through four multiplexers as indicated  
on the left side of Figure 22-2. Data inputs in the figure  
are identified by a generic numbered input name.  
Table 22-1 correlates the generic input name to the  
actual signal for each CLC module. The columns labeled  
lcxd1 through lcxd4 indicate the MUX output for the  
selected data input. D1S through D4S are abbreviations  
for the MUX select input codes: LCxD1S<2:0> through  
LCxD4S<2:0>, respectively. Selecting a data input in a  
column excludes all other inputs in that column.  
Note:  
Data selections are undefined at power-up.

Data gating is indicated in the right side of Figure 22-2.  
Only one gate is shown in detail. The remaining three  
gates are configured identically with the exception that  
the data enables correspond to the enables for that  
gate.  
22.1.2  
DATA GATING  
Outputs from the input multiplexers are directed to the  
desired logic function input through the data gating  
stage. Each data gate can direct any combination of the  
four selected inputs.  
22.1.3  
LOGIC FUNCTION  
Note:  
Data gating is undefined at power-up.  
There are 8 available logic functions including:  
The gate stage is more than just signal direction. The  
gate can be configured to direct each input signal as  
inverted or non-inverted data. Directed signals are  
ANDed together in each gate. The output of each gate  
can be inverted before going on to the logic function  
stage.  
• AND-OR  
• OR-XOR  
• AND  
• S-R Latch  
• D Flip-Flop with Set and Reset  
• D Flip-Flop with Reset  
• J-K Flip-Flop with Reset  
• Transparent Latch with Set and Reset  
The gating is in essence  
a
1-to-4 input  
AND/NAND/OR/NOR gate. When every input is  
inverted and the output is inverted, the gate is an OR of  
all enabled data inputs. When the inputs and output are  
not inverted, the gate is an AND or all enabled inputs.  
Logic functions are shown in Figure 22-3. Each logic  
function has four inputs and one output. The four inputs  
are the four data gate outputs of the previous stage.  
The output is fed to the inversion stage and from there  
to other peripherals, an output pin, and back to the  
CLCx itself.  
Table 22-2 summarizes the basic logic that can be  
obtained in gate 1 by using the gate logic select bits.  
The table shows the logic of four input variables, but  
each gate can be configured to use less than four. If  
no inputs are selected, the output will be zero or one,  
depending on the gate output polarity bit.  
22.1.4  
OUTPUT POLARITY  
The last stage in the configurable logic cell is the output  
polarity. Setting the LCxPOL bit of the CLCxCON reg-  
ister inverts the output signal from the logic stage.  
Changing the polarity while the interrupts are enabled  
will cause an interrupt for the resulting output transition.

It is possible (but not recommended) to select both the  
true and negated values of an input. When this is done,  
the gate output is zero, regardless of the other inputs,  
but may emit logic glitches (transient-induced pulses).  
If the output of the channel must be zero or one, the  
recommended method is to set all gate bits to zero and  
use the gate polarity bit to set the desired level.  
Data gating is configured with the logic gate select reg-  
isters as follows:  
• Gate 1: CLCxGLS0 (Register 22-5)  
• Gate 2: CLCxGLS1 (Register 22-6)  
• Gate 3: CLCxGLS2 (Register 22-7)  
• Gate 4: CLCxGLS3 (Register 22-8)  
Register number suffixes are different than the gate  
numbers because other variations of this module have  
multiple gate selections in the same register.

The CLCxIF bit of the associated PIR registers, must  
be cleared in software as part of the interrupt service. If  
another edge is detected while this flag is being  
cleared, the flag will still be set at the end of the  
sequence.  
22.1.5  
CLCx SETUP STEPS  
The following steps should be followed when setting up  
the CLCx:  
• Disable CLCx by clearing the LCxEN bit.  
• Select desired inputs using CLCxSEL0 and  
CLCxSEL1 registers (See Table 22-1).  
• Clear any associated ANSEL bits.  
22.3 Output Mirror Copies  
Mirror copies of all LCxCON output bits are contained  
in the CLCxDATA register. Reading this register reads  
the outputs of all CLCs simultaneously. This prevents  
any reading skew introduced by testing or reading the  
CLCxOUT bits in the individual CLCxCON registers.  
• Set all TRIS bits associated with inputs.  
• Clear all TRIS bits associated with outputs.  
• Enable the chosen inputs through the four gates  
using CLCxGLS0, CLCxGLS1, CLCxGLS2, and  
CLCxGLS3 registers.  
• Select the gate output polarities with the  
LCxPOLy bits of the CLCxPOL register.  
22.4 Effects of a Reset  
The CLCxCON register is cleared to zero as the result  
of a Reset. All other selection and gating values remain  
unchanged.  
• Select the desired logic function with the  
LCxMODE<2:0> bits of the CLCxCON register.  
• Select the desired polarity of the logic output with  
the LCxPOL bit of the CLCxPOL register. (This  
step may be combined with the previous gate out-  
put polarity step).  
22.5 Operation During Sleep  
The CLC module operates independently from the  
system clock and will continue to run during Sleep,  
provided that the input sources selected remain active.  
• If driving the CLCx pin, set the LCxOE bit of the  
CLCxCON register and also clear the TRIS bit  
corresponding to that output.  
The HFINTOSC remains active during Sleep when the  
CLC module is enabled and the HFINTOSC is  
selected as an input source, regardless of the system  
clock source selected.  
• If interrupts are desired, configure the following  
bits:  
- Set the LCxINTP bit in the CLCxCON register  
for rising event.  
In other words, if the HFINTOSC is simultaneously  
selected as the system clock and as a CLC input  
source, when the CLC is enabled, the CPU will go idle  
during Sleep, but the CLC will continue to operate and  
the HFINTOSC will remain active.  
- Set the LCxINTN bit in the CLCxCON  
register or falling event.  
- Set the CLCxIE bit of the associated PIE  
registers.  
- Set the GIE and PEIE bits of the INTCON  
register.  
This will have a direct effect on the Sleep mode current.  
• Enable the CLCx by setting the LCxEN bit of the  
CLCxCON register.  
22.6 Alternate Pin Locations  
This module incorporates I/O pins that can be moved to  
other locations with the use of the alternate pin function  
register, APFCON. To determine which pins can be  
moved and what their default locations are upon a  
Reset, see Section 11.1 “Alternate Pin Function” for  
more information.  
22.2 CLCx Interrupts  
An interrupt will be generated upon a change in the  
output value of the CLCx when the appropriate interrupt  
enables are set. A rising edge detector and a falling  
edge detector are present in each CLC for this purpose.  
The CLCxIF bit of the associated PIR registers will be set  
when either edge detector is triggered and its associated  
enable bit is set. The LCxINTP enables rising edge inter-  
rupts and the LCxINTN bit enables falling edge inter-  
rupts. Both are located in the CLCxCON register.  
To fully enable the interrupt, set the following bits:  
• LCxON bit of the CLCxCON register  
• CLCxIE bit of the associated PIE registers  
• LCxINTP bit of the CLCxCON register (for a rising  
edge detection)  
• LCxINTN bit of the CLCxCON register (for a fall-  
ing edge detection)  
• PEIE and GIE bits of the INTCON register

23.0 NUMERICALLY CONTROLLED  
OSCILLATOR (NCO) MODULE  
The Numerically Controlled Oscillator (NCOx) module  
is a timer that uses the overflow from the addition of an  
increment value to divide the input frequency. The  
advantage of the addition method over simple counter  
driven timer is that the resolution of division does not  
vary with the divider value. The NCOx is most useful for  
applications that require frequency accuracy and fine  
resolution at a fixed duty cycle.  
Features of the NCOx include:  
• 16-bit increment function  
• Fixed Duty Cycle (FDC) mode  
• Pulse Frequency (PF) mode  
• Output pulse width control  
• Multiple clock input sources  
• Output polarity control  
• Interrupt capability  
Figure 23-1 is a simplified block diagram of the NCOx  
module.

23.1.3  
ADDER  
23.1 NCOx OPERATION  
The NCOx Adder is a full adder, which operates  
independently from the system clock. The addition of  
the previous result and the increment value replaces  
the accumulator value on the rising edge of each input  
clock.  
The NCOx operates by repeatedly adding a fixed value  
to an accumulator. Additions occur at the input clock  
rate. The accumulator will overflow with a carry  
periodically, which is the raw NCOx output. This  
effectively reduces the input clock by the ratio of the  
addition value to the maximum accumulator value. See  
Equation 23-1.  
23.1.4  
INCREMENT REGISTERS  
The increment value is stored in two 8-bit registers  
making up a 16-bit increment. In order of LSB to MSB  
they are:  
The NCOx output can be further modified by stretching  
the pulse or toggling a flip-flop. The modified NCOx  
output is then distributed internally to other peripherals  
and optionally output to a pin. The accumulator overflow  
also generates an interrupt.  
• NCOxINCL  
• NCOxINCH  
The NCOx period changes in discrete steps to create an  
average frequency. This output depends on the ability of  
the receiving circuit (i.e., CWG or external resonant  
converter circuitry) to average the NCOx output to  
reduce uncertainty.  
Both of the registers are readable and writeable. The  
increment registers are double-buffered to allow for  
value changes to be made without first disabling the  
NCOx module.  
The buffer loads are immediate when the module is dis-  
abled. Writing to the NCOxINCH register first is neces-  
sary because then the buffer is loaded synchronously  
with the NCOx operation after the write is executed on  
the NCOxINCL register.  
23.1.1  
NCOx CLOCK SOURCES  
Clock sources available to the NCOx include:  
• HFINTOSC  
• FOSC  
• LCxOUT  
• CLKIN pin  
Note: The increment buffer registers are not  
user-accessible.  
The NCOx clock source is selected by configuring the  
NxCKS<2:0> bits in the NCOxCLK register.  
23.1.2  
ACCUMULATOR  
The accumulator is a 20-bit register. Read and write  
access to the accumulator is available through three  
registers:  
• NCOxACCL  
• NCOxACCH  
• NCOxACCU

23.2 FIXED DUTY CYCLE (FDC) MODE  
In Fixed Duty Cycle (FDC) mode, every time the  
accumulator overflows, the output is toggled. This  
provides a 50% duty cycle, provided that the increment  
value remains constant. For more information, see  
Figure 23-2.  
The FDC mode is selected by clearing the NxPFM bit  
in the NCOxCON register.  
23.3 PULSE FREQUENCY (PF) MODE  
In Pulse Frequency (PF) mode, every time the accumu-  
lator overflows, the output becomes active for one or  
more clock periods. Once the clock period expires, the  
output returns to an inactive state. This provides a  
pulsed output.  
The output becomes active on the rising clock edge  
immediately following the overflow event. For more  
information, see Figure 23-2.  
The value of the active and inactive states depends on  
the polarity bit, NxPOL in the NCOxCON register.  
The PF mode is selected by setting the NxPFM bit in  
the NCOxCON register.  
23.3.1  
OUTPUT PULSE WIDTH CONTROL  
When operating in PF mode, the active state of the out-  
put can vary in width by multiple clock periods. Various  
pulse widths are selected with the NxPWS<2:0> bits in  
the NCOxCLK register.  
When the selected pulse width is greater than the  
accumulator overflow time frame, the output of the  
NCOx operation is indeterminate.  
23.4 OUTPUT POLARITY CONTROL  
The last stage in the NCOx module is the output polar-  
ity. The NxPOL bit in the NCOxCON register selects the  
output polarity. Changing the polarity while the inter-  
rupts are enabled will cause an interrupt for the result-  
ing output transition.  
The NCOx output can be used internally by source  
code or other peripherals. Accomplish this by reading  
the NxOUT (read-only) bit of the NCOxCON register.

23.5 Interrupts  
When the accumulator overflows, the NCOx Interrupt  
Flag bit, NCOxIF, of the PIRx register is set. To enable  
the interrupt event, the following bits must be set:  
• NxEN bit of the NCOxCON register  
• NCOxIE bit of the PIEx register  
• PEIE bit of the INTCON register  
• GIE bit of the INTCON register  
The interrupt must be cleared by software by clearing  
the NCOxIF bit in the Interrupt Service Routine.  
23.6 Effects of a Reset  
All of the NCOx registers are cleared to zero as the  
result of a Reset.  
23.7 Operation In Sleep  
The NCO module operates independently from the  
system clock and will continue to run during Sleep,  
provided that the clock source selected remains  
active.  
The HFINTOSC remains active during Sleep when the  
NCO module is enabled and the HFINTOSC is  
selected as the clock source, regardless of the system  
clock source selected.  
In other words, if the HFINTOSC is simultaneously  
selected as the system clock and the NCO clock  
source, when the NCO is enabled, the CPU will go idle  
during Sleep, but the NCO will continue to operate and  
the HFINTOSC will remain active.  
This will have a direct effect on the Sleep mode current.  
23.8 Alternate Pin Locations  
This module incorporates I/O pins that can be moved to  
other locations with the use of the alternate pin function  
register, APFCON. To determine which pins can be  
moved and what their default locations are upon a  
Reset, see Section 11.1 “Alternate Pin Function” for  
more information.

24.4.2  
POLARITY CONTROL  
24.1 Fundamental Operation  
The polarity of each CWG output can be selected  
independently. When the output polarity bit is set, the  
corresponding output is active high. Clearing the output  
polarity bit configures the corresponding output as  
active low. However, polarity does not affect the  
override levels. Output polarity is selected with the  
GxPOLA and GxPOLB bits of the CWGxCON0 register.  
The CWG generates a two output complementary  
waveform from one of four selectable input sources.  
The off-to-on transition of each output can be delayed  
from the on-to-off transition of the other output, thereby,  
creating a time delay immediately where neither output  
is driven. This is referred to as dead time and is covered  
in Section 24.5 “Dead-Band Control”. A typical  
operating waveform, with dead band, generated from a  
single input signal is shown in Figure 24-2.  
24.5 Dead-Band Control  
Dead-band control provides for non-overlapping output  
signals to prevent shoot-through current in power  
switches. The CWG contains two 6-bit dead-band  
counters. One dead-band counter is used for the rising  
edge of the input source control. The other is used for  
the falling edge of the input source control.  
It may be necessary to guard against the possibility of  
circuit faults or a feedback event arriving too late or not  
at all. In this case, the active drive must be terminated  
before the Fault condition causes damage. This is  
referred to as auto-shutdown and is covered in  
Section 24.9 “Auto-shutdown Control”.  
Dead band is timed by counting CWG clock periods  
from zero up to the value in the rising or falling dead-  
band counter registers. See CWGxDBR and  
CWGxDBF registers (Register 24-4 and Register 24-5,  
respectively).  
24.2 Clock Source  
The CWG module allows the following clock sources  
to be selected:  
• Fosc (system clock)  
• HFINTOSC (16 MHz only)  
24.6 Rising Edge Dead Band  
The clock sources are selected using the G1CS0 bit of  
the CWGxCON0 register (Register 24-1).  
The rising edge dead band delays the turn-on of the  
CWGxA output from when the CWGxB output is turned  
off. The rising edge dead-band time starts when the  
rising edge of the input source signal goes true. When  
this happens, the CWGxB output is immediately turned  
off and the rising edge dead-band delay time starts.  
When the rising edge dead-band delay time is reached,  
the CWGxA output is turned on.  
24.3 Selectable Input Sources  
The CWG can generate the complementary waveform  
for the following input sources:  
• async_C1OUT  
• PWM1  
• PWM2  
• PWM3  
• PWM4  
The CWGxDBR register sets the duration of the dead-  
band interval on the rising edge of the input source  
signal. This duration is from 0 to 64 counts of dead band.  
• N1OUT  
• LC1OUT  
Dead band is always counted off the edge on the input  
source signal. A count of 0 (zero) indicates that no  
dead band is present.  
The input sources are selected using the GxIS<2:0>  
bits in the CWGxCON1 register (Register 24-2).  
If the input source signal is not present for enough time  
for the count to be completed, no output will be seen on  
the respective output.  
24.4 Output Control  
Immediately after the CWG module is enabled, the  
complementary drive is configured with both CWGxA  
and CWGxB drives cleared.  
24.4.1  
OUTPUT ENABLES  
Each CWG output pin has individual output enable  
control. Output enables are selected with the GxOEA  
and GxOEB bits of the CWGxCON0 register. When an  
output enable control is cleared, the module asserts no  
control over the pin. When an output enable is set, the  
override value or active PWM waveform is applied to  
the pin per the port priority selection. The output pin  
enables are dependent on the module enable bit,  
GxEN. When GxEN is cleared, CWG output enables  
and CWG drive levels have no effect.

24.7 Falling Edge Dead Band  
The falling edge dead band delays the turn-on of the  
CWGxB output from when the CWGxA output is turned  
off. The falling edge dead-band time starts when the  
falling edge of the input source goes true. When this  
happens, the CWGxA output is immediately turned off  
and the falling edge dead-band delay time starts. When  
the falling edge dead-band delay time is reached, the  
CWGxB output is turned on.  
The CWGxDBF register sets the duration of the dead-  
band interval on the falling edge of the input source sig-  
nal. This duration is from 0 to 64 counts of dead band.  
Dead band is always counted off the edge on the input  
source signal. A count of 0 (zero) indicates that no  
dead band is present.  
If the input source signal is not present for enough time  
for the count to be completed, no output will be seen on  
the respective output.  
Refer to Figure 24-3 and Figure 24-4 for examples.  
24.8 Dead-Band Uncertainty  
When the rising and falling edges of the input source  
triggers the dead-band counters, the input may be asyn-  
chronous. This will create some uncertainty in the dead-  
band time delay. The maximum uncertainty is equal to  
one CWG clock period. Refer to Equation 24-1 for more  
detail.

24.9 Auto-shutdown Control  
24.10 Operation During Sleep  
Auto-shutdown is a method to immediately override the  
CWG output levels with specific overrides that allow for  
safe shutdown of the circuit. The shutdown state can be  
either cleared automatically or held until cleared by  
software.  
The CWG module operates independently from the  
system clock and will continue to run during Sleep,  
provided that the clock and input sources selected  
remain active.  
The HFINTOSC remains active during Sleep, provided  
that the CWG module is enabled, the input source is  
active, and the HFINTOSC is selected as the clock  
source, regardless of the system clock source  
selected.  
24.9.1  
SHUTDOWN  
The shutdown state can be entered by either of the fol-  
lowing two methods:  
• Software generated  
• External Input  
In other words, if the HFINTOSC is simultaneously  
selected as the system clock and the CWG clock  
source, when the CWG is enabled and the input  
source is active, the CPU will go idle during Sleep, but  
the CWG will continue to operate and the HFINTOSC  
will remain active.  
24.9.1.1  
Software Generated Shutdown  
Setting the GxASE bit of the CWGxCON2 register will  
force the CWG into the shutdown state.  
When auto-restart is disabled, the shutdown state will  
persist as long as the GxASE bit is set.  
This will have a direct effect on the Sleep mode current.  
When auto-restart is enabled, the GxASE bit will clear  
automatically and resume operation on the next rising  
edge event. See Figure 24-6.  
24.11 Alternate Pin Locations  
This module incorporates I/O pins that can be moved to  
other locations with the use of the alternate pin function  
register, APFCON. To determine which pins can be  
moved and what their default locations are upon a  
Reset, see Section 11.1 “Alternate Pin Function” for  
more information.  
24.9.1.2  
External Input Source  
External shutdown inputs provide the fastest way to  
safely suspend CWG operation in the event of a Fault  
condition. When any of the selected shutdown inputs  
goes active, the CWG outputs will immediately go to  
the selected override levels without software delay. Any  
combination of two input sources can be selected to  
cause a shutdown condition. The sources are:  
• async_C1OUT  
• LC2OUT  
• CWG1FLT  
Shutdown inputs are selected using the GxASDS0 and  
GxASDS1 bits of the CWGxCON2 register.  
(Register 24-3).  
Note:  
Shutdown inputs are level sensitive, not  
edge sensitive. The shutdown state can-  
not be cleared, except by disabling auto-  
shutdown, as long as the shutdown input  
level persists.

24.12.1 PIN OVERRIDE LEVELS  
24.12 Configuring the CWG  
The levels driven to the output pins, while the shutdown  
input is true, are controlled by the GxASDLA and  
GxASDLB bits of the CWGxCON2 register  
(Register 24-3). GxASDLA controls the CWG1A  
override level and GxASDLB controls the CWG1B  
override level. The control bit logic level corresponds to  
the output logic drive level while in the shutdown state.  
The polarity control does not apply to the override level.  
The following steps illustrate how to properly configure  
the CWG to ensure a synchronous start:  
1. Ensure that the TRIS control bits corresponding  
to CWGxA and CWGxB are set so that both are  
configured as inputs.  
2. Clear the GxEN bit, if not already cleared.  
3. Set desired dead-band times with the CWGxDBR  
and CWGxDBF registers.  
24.12.2 AUTO-SHUTDOWN RESTART  
4. Setup the following controls in CWGxCON2  
auto-shutdown register:  
After an auto-shutdown event has occurred, there are  
two ways to have resume operation:  
• Select desired shutdown source.  
• Select both output overrides to the desired  
levels (this is necessary even if not using  
auto-shutdown because start-up will be from  
a shutdown state).  
• Software controlled  
• Auto-restart  
The restart method is selected with the GxARSEN bit  
of the CWGxCON2 register. Waveforms of software  
controlled and automatic restarts are shown in  
Figure 24-5 and Figure 24-6.  
• Set the GxASE bit and clear the GxARSEN  
bit.  
5. Select the desired input source using the  
CWGxCON1 register.  
24.12.2.1 Software Controlled Restart  
6. Configure the following controls in CWGxCON0  
register:  
When the GxARSEN bit of the CWGxCON2 register is  
cleared, the CWG must be restarted after an auto-shut-  
down event by software.  
• Select desired clock source.  
• Select the desired output polarities.  
Clearing the shutdown state requires all selected shut-  
down inputs to be low, otherwise the GxASE bit will  
remain set. The overrides will remain in effect until the  
first rising edge event after the GxASE bit is cleared.  
The CWG will then resume operation.  
• Set the output enables for the outputs to be  
used.  
7. Set the GxEN bit.  
8. Clear TRIS control bits corresponding to  
CWGxA and CWGxB to be used to configure  
those pins as outputs.  
24.12.2.2 Auto-Restart  
When the GxARSEN bit of the CWGxCON2 register is  
set, the CWG will restart from the auto-shutdown state  
automatically.  
9. If auto-restart is to be used, set the GxARSEN  
bit and the GxASE bit will be cleared automati-  
cally. Otherwise, clear the GxASE bit to start the  
CWG.  
The GxASE bit will clear automatically when all shut-  
down sources go low. The overrides will remain in  
effect until the first rising edge event after the GxASE  
bit is cleared. The CWG will then resume operation.

25.3 Common Programming Interfaces  
25.0 IN-CIRCUIT SERIAL  
PROGRAMMING™ (ICSP™)  
Connection to a target device is typically done through  
an ICSP™ header. A commonly found connector on  
development tools is the RJ-11 in the 6P6C (6 pin, 6  
connector) configuration. See Figure 25-1.  
ICSP™ programming allows customers to manufacture  
circuit boards with unprogrammed devices. Programming  
can be done after the assembly process, allowing the  
device to be programmed with the most recent firmware  
or a custom firmware. Five pins are needed for ICSP™  
programming:  
FIGURE 25-1:

• MCLR/VPP  
• VDD

VDD  
In Program/Verify mode the program memory, user IDs  
and the Configuration Words are programmed through  
serial communications. The ICSPDAT pin is a bidirec-  
tional I/O used for transferring the serial data and the  
ICSPCLK pin is the clock input. For more information on  
ICSP™ refer to the “PIC16193X/PIC16LF193X Memory  
Programming Specification” (DS41360).

4 = ICSPDAT  
25.1 High-Voltage Programming Entry  
Mode  
The device is placed into High-Voltage Programming  
Entry mode by holding the ICSPCLK and ICSPDAT  
pins low then raising the voltage on MCLR/VPP to VIHH.  
5 = ICSPCLK  
6 = No Connect  
25.2 Low-Voltage Programming Entry  
Mode  
Another connector often found in use with the PICkit™  
programmers is a standard 6-pin header with 0.1 inch  
spacing. Refer to Figure 25-2.  
The Low-Voltage Programming Entry mode allows the  
PIC® Flash MCUs to be programmed using VDD only,  
without high voltage. When the LVP bit of Configuration  
Words is set to ‘1’, the low-voltage ICSP programming  
entry is enabled. To disable the Low-Voltage ICSP  
mode, the LVP bit must be programmed to ‘0’.  
Entry into the Low-Voltage Programming Entry mode  
requires the following steps:  
1. MCLR is brought to VIL.  
2.  
A
32-bit key sequence is presented on  
ICSPDAT, while clocking ICSPCLK.  
Once the key sequence is complete, MCLR must be  
held at VIL for as long as Program/Verify mode is to be  
maintained.  
If low-voltage programming is enabled (LVP = 1), the  
MCLR Reset function is automatically enabled and  
cannot be disabled. See Section MCLR for more infor-  
mation.  
The LVP bit can only be reprogrammed to ‘0’ by using  
the High-Voltage Programming mode.

The 6-pin header (0.100" spacing) accepts 0.025" square pins.  
For additional interface recommendations, refer to your  
specific device programmer manual prior to PCB  
design.  
It is recommended that isolation devices be used to  
separate the programming pins from other circuitry.  
The type of isolation is highly dependent on the specific  
application and may include devices such as resistors,  
diodes, or even jumpers. See Figure 25-3 for more  
information.

26.1 Read-Modify-Write Operations  
26.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY  
Any instruction that specifies a file register as part of  
the instruction performs a Read-Modify-Write (R-M-W)  
operation. The register is read, the data is modified,  
and the result is stored according to either the instruc-  
tion, or the destination designator ‘d’. A read operation  
is performed on a register even if the instruction writes  
to that register.  
Each instruction is a 14-bit word containing the opera-  
tion code (opcode) and all required operands. The op  
codes are broken into three broad categories.  
• Byte Oriented  
• Bit Oriented  
• Literal and Control  
The literal and control category contains the most var-  
ied instruction word format.  
TABLE 26-1: OPCODE FIELD  
DESCRIPTIONS  
Table 26-3 lists the instructions recognized by the  
MPASMTM assembler.  
Field  
Description  
All instructions are executed within a single instruction  
cycle, with the following exceptions, which may take  
two or three cycles:  
f
W
b
Register file address (0x00 to 0x7F)  
Working register (accumulator)  
Bit address within an 8-bit file register  
Literal field, constant data or label  
• Subroutine takes two cycles (CALL, CALLW)  
• Returns from interrupts or subroutines take two  
cycles (RETURN, RETLW, RETFIE)  
k
x
Don’t care location (= 0or 1).  
• Program branching takes two cycles (GOTO, BRA,  
BRW, BTFSS, BTFSC, DECFSZ, INCSFZ)  
• One additional instruction cycle will be used when  
any instruction references an indirect file register  
and the file select register is pointing to program  
memory.  
The assembler will generate code with x = 0.  
It is the recommended form of use for  
compatibility with all Microchip software tools.  
d
Destination select; d = 0: store result in W,  
d = 1: store result in file register f.  
Default is d = 1.  
One instruction cycle consists of 4 oscillator cycles; for  
an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, this gives a nominal  
instruction execution rate of 1 MHz.  
n
FSR or INDF number. (0-1)  
mm  
Pre-post increment-decrement mode  
selection  
All instruction examples use the format ‘0xhh’ to  
represent a hexadecimal number, where ‘h’ signifies a  
hexadecimal digit.

Note 1: The peripheral current is the sum of the base IDD or IPD and the additional current consumed when this peripheral is  
enabled. The peripheral current can be determined by subtracting the base IDD or IPD current from this limit. Max  
values should be used when calculating total current consumption.  
2: The power-down current in Sleep mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power-down current is measured with  
the part in Sleep mode, with all I/O pins in high-impedance state and tied to VDD.

sumption. All devices are tested to operate at “min” values with an external clock applied to CLKIN pin. When an external  
clock input is used, the “max” cycle time limit is “DC” (no clock) for all devices.

29.2 MPLAB C Compilers for Various  
Device Families  
29.5 MPLINK Object Linker/  
MPLIB Object Librarian  
The MPLAB C Compiler code development systems  
are complete ANSI C compilers for Microchip’s PIC18,  
PIC24 and PIC32 families of microcontrollers and the  
dsPIC30 and dsPIC33 families of digital signal control-  
lers. These compilers provide powerful integration  
capabilities, superior code optimization and ease of  
use.  
The MPLINK Object Linker combines relocatable  
objects created by the MPASM Assembler and the  
MPLAB C18 C Compiler. It can link relocatable objects  
from precompiled libraries, using directives from a  
linker script.  
The MPLIB Object Librarian manages the creation and  
modification of library files of precompiled code. When  
a routine from a library is called from a source file, only  
the modules that contain that routine will be linked in  
with the application. This allows large libraries to be  
used efficiently in many different applications.  
For easy source level debugging, the compilers provide  
symbol information that is optimized to the MPLAB IDE  
debugger.  
29.3 HI-TECH C for Various Device  
Families  
The object linker/library features include:  
• Efficient linking of single libraries instead of many  
smaller files  
The HI-TECH C Compiler code development systems  
are complete ANSI C compilers for Microchip’s PIC  
family of microcontrollers and the dsPIC family of digital  
signal controllers. These compilers provide powerful  
integration capabilities, omniscient code generation  
and ease of use.  
• Enhanced code maintainability by grouping  
related modules together  
• Flexible creation of libraries with easy module  
listing, replacement, deletion and extraction  
29.6 MPLAB Assembler, Linker and  
Librarian for Various Device  
Families  
For easy source level debugging, the compilers provide  
symbol information that is optimized to the MPLAB IDE  
debugger.  
The compilers include a macro assembler, linker, pre-  
processor, and one-step driver, and can run on multiple  
platforms.  
MPLAB Assembler produces relocatable machine  
code from symbolic assembly language for PIC24,  
PIC32 and dsPIC devices. MPLAB C Compiler uses  
the assembler to produce its object file. The assembler  
generates relocatable object files that can then be  
archived or linked with other relocatable object files and  
archives to create an executable file. Notable features  
of the assembler include:  
29.4 MPASM Assembler  
The MPASM Assembler is a full-featured, universal  
macro assembler for PIC10/12/16/18 MCUs.  
The MPASM Assembler generates relocatable object  
files for the MPLINK Object Linker, Intel® standard HEX  
files, MAP files to detail memory usage and symbol  
reference, absolute LST files that contain source lines  
and generated machine code and COFF files for  
debugging.  
• Support for the entire device instruction set  
• Support for fixed-point and floating-point data  
• Command line interface  
• Rich directive set  
• Flexible macro language  
The MPASM Assembler features include:  
• Integration into MPLAB IDE projects  
• MPLAB IDE compatibility  
• User-defined macros to streamline  
assembly code  
• Conditional assembly for multi-purpose  
source files  
• Directives that allow complete control over the  
assembly process

29.7 MPLAB SIM Software Simulator  
29.9 MPLAB ICD 3 In-Circuit Debugger  
System  
The MPLAB SIM Software Simulator allows code  
development in a PC-hosted environment by simulat-  
ing the PIC MCUs and dsPIC® DSCs on an instruction  
level. On any given instruction, the data areas can be  
examined or modified and stimuli can be applied from  
a comprehensive stimulus controller. Registers can be  
logged to files for further run-time analysis. The trace  
buffer and logic analyzer display extend the power of  
the simulator to record and track program execution,  
actions on I/O, most peripherals and internal registers.  
MPLAB ICD 3 In-Circuit Debugger System is Micro-  
chip's most cost effective high-speed hardware  
debugger/programmer for Microchip Flash Digital Sig-  
nal Controller (DSC) and microcontroller (MCU)  
devices. It debugs and programs PIC® Flash microcon-  
trollers and dsPIC® DSCs with the powerful, yet easy-  
to-use graphical user interface of MPLAB Integrated  
Development Environment (IDE).  
The MPLAB ICD 3 In-Circuit Debugger probe is con-  
nected to the design engineer's PC using a high-speed  
USB 2.0 interface and is connected to the target with a  
connector compatible with the MPLAB ICD 2 or MPLAB  
REAL ICE systems (RJ-11). MPLAB ICD 3 supports all  
MPLAB ICD 2 headers.  
The MPLAB SIM Software Simulator fully supports  
symbolic debugging using the MPLAB C Compilers,  
and the MPASM and MPLAB Assemblers. The soft-  
ware simulator offers the flexibility to develop and  
debug code outside of the hardware laboratory envi-  
ronment, making it an excellent, economical software  
development tool.  
29.10 PICkit 3 In-Circuit Debugger/  
Programmer and  
29.8 MPLAB REAL ICE In-Circuit  
Emulator System  
PICkit 3 Debug Express  
The MPLAB PICkit 3 allows debugging and program-  
ming of PIC® and dsPIC® Flash microcontrollers at a  
most affordable price point using the powerful graphical  
user interface of the MPLAB Integrated Development  
Environment (IDE). The MPLAB PICkit 3 is connected  
to the design engineer's PC using a full speed USB  
interface and can be connected to the target via an  
Microchip debug (RJ-11) connector (compatible with  
MPLAB ICD 3 and MPLAB REAL ICE). The connector  
uses two device I/O pins and the reset line to imple-  
ment in-circuit debugging and In-Circuit Serial Pro-  
gramming™.  
MPLAB REAL ICE In-Circuit Emulator System is  
Microchip’s next generation high-speed emulator for  
Microchip Flash DSC and MCU devices. It debugs and  
programs PIC® Flash MCUs and dsPIC® Flash DSCs

to the target with either a connector compatible with in-  
circuit debugger systems (RJ11) or with the new high-  
speed, noise tolerant, Low-Voltage Differential Signal  
(LVDS) interconnection (CAT5).  
The PICkit 3 Debug Express include the PICkit 3, demo  
board and microcontroller, hookup cables and CDROM  
with user’s guide, lessons, tutorial, compiler and  
MPLAB IDE software.  
The emulator is field upgradable through future firmware  
downloads in MPLAB IDE. In upcoming releases of  
MPLAB IDE, new devices will be supported, and new  
features will be added. MPLAB REAL ICE offers  
significant advantages over competitive emulators  
including low-cost, full-speed emulation, run-time  
variable watches, trace analysis, complex breakpoints, a  
ruggedized probe interface and long (up to three meters)  
interconnection cables.

The PICkit™ 2 Development Programmer/Debugger is  
a low-cost development tool with an easy to use inter-  
face for programming and debugging Microchip’s Flash  
families of microcontrollers. The full featured  
Windows® programming interface supports baseline  
A wide variety of demonstration, development and  
evaluation boards for various PIC MCUs and dsPIC  
DSCs allows quick application development on fully func-  
tional systems. Most boards include prototyping areas for  
adding custom circuitry and provide application firmware  
and source code for examination and modification.  
(PIC10F,  
PIC12F5xx,  
PIC16F5xx),  
midrange  
(PIC12F6xx, PIC16F), PIC18F, PIC24, dsPIC30,  
dsPIC33, and PIC32 families of 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit  
microcontrollers, and many Microchip Serial EEPROM  
products. With Microchip’s powerful MPLAB Integrated  
The boards support a variety of features, including LEDs,  
temperature sensors, switches, speakers, RS-232  
interfaces, LCD displays, potentiometers and additional  
EEPROM memory.  
Development Environment (IDE) the PICkit™  
2
enables in-circuit debugging on most PIC® microcon-  
trollers. In-Circuit-Debugging runs, halts and single  
steps the program while the PIC microcontroller is  
embedded in the application. When halted at a break-  
point, the file registers can be examined and modified.  
The demonstration and development boards can be  
used in teaching environments, for prototyping custom  
circuits and for learning about various microcontroller  
applications.  
In addition to the PICDEM™ and dsPICDEM™ demon-  
stration/development board series of circuits, Microchip  
has a line of evaluation kits and demonstration software  
The PICkit 2 Debug Express include the PICkit 2, demo  
board and microcontroller, hookup cables and CDROM  
with user’s guide, lessons, tutorial, compiler and  
MPLAB IDE software.
