PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW
This document contains device-specific information for
the following devices:
PIC24F04KA200
PIC24F04KA201
The PIC24F04KA201 family introduces a new line of
extreme low-power Microchip devices: a 16-bit micro-
controller family with a broad peripheral feature set and
enhanced computational performance. It also offers a
new migration option for those high-performance appli-
cations, which may be outgrowing their 8-bit platforms,
but do not require the numerical processing power of a
digital signal processor.
1.1 Core Features
1.1.1 16-BIT ARCHITECTURE
Central to all PIC24F devices is the 16-bit modified
Harvard architecture, first introduced with Microchip’s
dsPIC® digital signal controllers. The PIC24F CPU core
offers a wide range of enhancements, such as:
16-bit data and 24-bit address paths with the
ability to move information between data and
memory spaces
Linear addressing of up to 12 Mbytes (program
space) and 64 Kbytes (data)
A 16-element working register array with built-in
software stack support
A 17 x 17 hardware multiplier with support for
integer math
Hardware support for 32-bit by 16-bit division
An instruction set that supports multiple
addressing modes and is optimized for high-level
languages, such as C
Operational performance up to 16 MIPS
1.1.2 POWER-SAVING TECHNOLOGY
The PIC24F04KA200 and PIC24F04KA201 devices
incorporate a range of features that can significantly
reduce power consumption during operation. Key
items include:
On-the-Fly Clock Switching: The device clock
can be changed under software control to the
Timer1 source or the internal, low-power RC
oscillator during operation, allowing users to
incorporate power-saving ideas into their software
designs.
Doze Mode Operation: When timing-sensitive
applications, such as serial communications,
require the uninterrupted operation of peripherals,
the CPU clock speed can be selectively reduced,
allowing incremental power savings without
missing a beat.
Instruction-Based Power-Saving Modes: There
are three instruction-based power-saving modes:
- Idle Mode: The core is shut down while leaving
the peripherals active.
- Sleep Mode: The core and peripherals that
require the system clock are shut down, leaving
the peripherals that use their own clock, or the
clock from other devices, active.
- Deep Sleep Mode: The core, peripherals (except
DSWDT), Flash and SRAM are shut down.
1.1.3 OSCILLATOR OPTIONS AND
FEATURES
The PIC24F04KA201 family offers five different
oscillator options, allowing users a range of choices in
developing application hardware. These include:
Two Crystal modes using crystals or ceramic
resonators.
Two External Clock modes offering the option of a
divide-by-2 clock output.
Two fast internal oscillators (FRCs): One with a
nominal 8 MHz output and the other with nominal
500 kHz output. These outputs can also be
divided under software control to provide clock
speed as low as 31 kHz or 2 kHz.
A Phase Locked Loop (PLL) frequency multiplier,
available to the External Oscillator modes and the
8 MHz FRC oscillator, which allows clock speeds
of up to 32 MHz.
A separate internal RC oscillator (LPRC) with a
fixed 31 kHz output, which provides a low-power
option for timing-insensitive applications.
PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
DS39937B-page 8 Preliminary © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.
The internal oscillator block also provides a stable
reference source for the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor
(FSCM). This option constantly monitors the main clock
source against a reference signal provided by the
internal oscillator and enables the controller to switch to
the internal oscillator, allowing for continued low-speed
operation or a safe application shutdown.
1.1.4 EASY MIGRATION
Regardless of the memory size, all the devices share
the same rich set of peripherals, allowing for a smooth
migration path as applications grow and evolve.
The consistent pinout scheme used throughout the
entire family also helps in migrating to the next larger
device. This is true when moving between devices with
the same pin count, or even jumping from 14-pin to
20-pin devices. The PIC24F16KA102 family is directly
compatible for migration to larger program and data
memory.
The PIC24F family is pin compatible with devices in the
dsPIC33 family, and shares some compatibility with the
pinout schema for PIC18 and dsPIC30. This extends
the ability of applications to grow from the relatively
simple, to the powerful and complex.
1.2 Other Special Features
Communications: The PIC24F04KA201 family
incorporates a range of serial communication
peripherals to handle a range of application
requirements. There is an I2C™ module that
supports both the Master and Slave modes of
operation. It also comprises a UART with built-in
IrDA® encoders/decoders and an SPI module.
10-Bit A/D Converter: This module incorporates
programmable acquisition time, allowing for a
channel to be selected and a conversion to be
initiated without waiting for a sampling period, and
faster sampling speed. The 16-deep result buffer
can be used either in Sleep to reduce power, or in
Active mode to improve throughput.
Charge Time Measurement Unit (CTMU)
Interface: The PIC24F04KA201 family includes
the new CTMU interface module, which can be
used for capacitive touch sensing using
Microchip’s mTouch™ technology, proximity
sensing and also for precision time measurement
and pulse generation.
1.3 Details on Indi vidual Family
Members
Devices in the PIC24F04KA201 family are available in
14-pin and 20-pin packages. The general block
diagram for all devices is displayed in Figure 1-1.
The devices are different from each other in two ways:
1. Number of ADC channels (9 channels on 20-pin
parts, 7 channels on 14-pin parts).
2. Available I/O pins and ports (12 pins on two
ports for 14-pin devices and 18 pins on two ports
for 20-pin devices).
All other features for devices in this family are identical;
these are summarized in Table 1-1.
A list of the pin features available on the
PIC24F04KA201 family devices, sorted by function, is
provided in Table 1-2.
1.4 Differences from PIC24F16KA102
Family
The PIC24F04KA201 family architecture is very similar to
that of the PIC24F16KA102 family. The PIC24F04KA201
family is a subset of the PIC24F16KA102 devices.
The PIC24F16KA102 family has the following
additional features:
Larger Program Memory
Larger Data Memory
CRC Module
Debugging Capabilities through ICSP™
Additional I/O on 20-Pin Devices (up to
24 I/O pins)
Data EEPROM memory
Boot Segment and General Segments for
Program Code (with available code protection)
One Additional UART (2 total)
Note: Table 1-1 provides the pin location of
individual peripheral features and not how
they are multiplexed on the same pin. This
information is provided in the pinout
diagrams on pages 2 and 3 of the data
sheet. Multiplexed features are sorted by
the priority given to a feature, with the
highest priority peripheral being listed first.

2.0 GUIDELINES FOR GETTING
STARTED WITH 16-BIT
MICROCONTROLLERS
2.1 Basic Connection Requirements
Getting started with the PIC24FXXXX of 16-bit
microcontrollers requires attention to a minimal set of
device pin connections before proceeding with
development.
The following pins must always be connected:
•All V
DD and VSS pins
(see Section 2.2 “Power Supply Pins”)
•All AV
DD and AVSS pins, regardless of whether or
not the analog device features are used
(see Section 2.2 “Power Supply Pins”)
•M
CLR pin
(see Section 2.3 “Master Clear (MCLR) Pin”)
ENVREG/DISVREG and VCAP/VDDCORE pins
(PIC24F devices only)
(see Section 2.4 “Voltage Regulator Pins
(ENVREG/DISVREG and VCAP/VDDCORE)”)
These pins must also be connected if they are being
used in the end application:
PGECx/PGEDx pins used for In-Circuit Serial
Programming™ (ICSP™) and debugging purposes
(see Section 2.5 “ICSP Pins”)
OSCI and OSCO pins when an external oscillator
source is used
(see Section 2.6 “External Oscillator Pins”)
Additionally, the following pins may be required:
•V
REF+/VREF- pins used when external voltage
reference for analog modules is implemented
The minimum mandatory connections are shown in
Figure 2-1.
FIGURE 2-1: RECOMMENDED
MINIMUM CONNECTIONS
Note: The AVDD and AVSS pins must always be
connected, regardless of whether any of
the analog modules are being used.

DS39937B-page 16 Preliminary © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.
2.2 Power Supply Pins
2.2.1 DECOUPLING CAPACITORS
The use of decoupling capacitors on every pair of
power supply pins, such as VDD, VSS, AVDD and
AVSS, is required.
Consider the following criteria when using decoupling
capacitors:
Value and type of capacitor: A 0.1 μF (100 nF),
10-20V capacitor is recommended. The capacitor
should be a low-ESR device with a resonance
frequency in the range of 200 MHz and higher.
Ceramic capacitors are recommended.
Placement on the printed circuit board: The
decoupling capacitors should be placed as close
to the pins as possible. It is recommended to
place the capacitors on the same side of the
board as the device. If space is constricted, the
capacitor can be placed on another layer on the
PCB using a via; however, ensure that the trace
length from the pin to the capacitor is no greater
than 0.25 inch (6 mm).
Handling high-frequency noise: If the board is
experiencing high-frequency noise (upward of
tens of MHz), add a second ceramic type capaci-
tor in parallel to the above described decoupling
capacitor. The value of the second capacitor can
be in the range of 0.01 μF to 0.001 μF. Place this
second capacitor next to each primary decoupling
capacitor. In high-speed circuit designs, consider
implementing a decade pair of capacitances as
close to the power and ground pins as possible
(e.g., 0.1 μF in parallel with 0.001 μF).
Maximizing performance: On the board layout
from the power supply circuit, run the power and
return traces to the decoupling capacitors first,
and then to the device pins. This ensures that the
decoupling capacitors are first in the power chain.
Equally important is to keep the trace length
between the capacitor and the power pins to a
minimum, thereby reducing PCB trace
inductance.
2.2.2 TANK CAPACITORS
On boards with power traces running longer than six
inches in length, it is suggested to use a tank capacitor
for integrated circuits including microcontrollers to
supply a local power source. The value of the tank
capacitor should be determined based on the trace
resistance that connects the power supply source to
the device and the maximum current drawn by the
device in the application. In other words, select the tank
capacitor so that it meets the acceptable voltage sag at
the device. Typical values range from 4.7 μF to 47 μF.
2.3 Master Clear (MCLR) Pin
The MCLR pin provides two specific device
functions: device Reset, and device programming
and debugging. If programming and debugging are
not required in the end application, a direct
connection to VDD may be all that is required. The
addition of other components, to help increase the
application’s resistance to spurious Resets from
voltage sags, may be beneficial. A typical
configuration is shown in Figure 2-1. Other circuit
designs may be implemented depending on the
application’s requirements.
During programming and debugging, the resistance
and capacitance that can be added to the pin must be
considered. Device programmers and debuggers drive
the MCLR pin. Consequently, specific voltage levels
(VIH and VIL) and fast signal transitions must not be
adversely affected. Therefore, specific values of R1
and C1 will need to be adjusted based on the
application and PCB requirements. For example, it is
recommended that the capacitor, C1, be isolated from
the MCLR pin during programming and debugging
operations by using a jumper (Figure 2-2). The jumper
is replaced for normal run-time operations.
Any components associated with the MCLR pin
should be placed within 0.25 inch (6 mm) of the pin.
FIGURE 2-2: EXAMPLE OF MCLR PIN
CONNECTIONS
Note 1: R1 10 kΩ is recommended. A suggested
starting value is 10 kΩ. Ensure that the
MCLR pin VIH and VIL specifications are met.
2: R2 470Ω will limit any current flowing into
MCLR from the external capacitor, C, in the
event of MCLR pin breakdown, due to
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) or Electrical
Overstress (EOS). Ensure that the MCLR pin
VIH and VIL specifications are met.

2.4 Voltage Regulator Pins
(ENVREG/DISVREG and
VCAP/VDDCORE)
The on-chip voltage regulator enable/disable pin
(ENVREG or DISVREG, depending on the device
family) must always be connected directly to either a
supply voltage or to ground. The particular connection
is determined by whether or not the regulator is to be
used:
For ENVREG, tie to VDD to enable the regulator or
to ground to disable the regulator
For DISVREG, tie to ground to enable the
regulator or to VDD to disable the regulator
When the regulator is enabled, a low-ESR (<5)
capacitor is required on the VCAP/VDDCORE pin to
stabilize the voltage regulator output voltage. The
VCAP/VDDCORE pin must not be connected to VDD and
must use a capacitor of 10 μF connected to ground. The
type can be ceramic or tantalum. A suitable example is
the Murata GRM21BF50J106ZE01 (10 μF, 6.3V) or
equivalent. Designers may use Figure 2-3 to evaluate
ESR equivalence of candidate devices.
The placement of this capacitor should be close to
VCAP/VDDCORE. It is recommended that the trace
length not exceed 0.25 inch (6 mm). Refer to
Section 26.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for
additional information.
When the regulator is disabled, the VCAP/VDDCORE pin
must be tied to a voltage supply at the VDDCORE level.
Refer to Section 26.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for
information on VDD and VDDCORE.
FIGURE 2-3: FREQUENCY vs. ESR
PERFORMANCE FOR
SUGGESTED VCAP
2.5 ICSP Pins
The PGECx and PGEDx pins are used for In-Circuit
Serial Programming (ICSP) and debugging purposes.
It is recommended to keep the trace length between
the ICSP connector and the ICSP pins on the device as
short as possible. If the ICSP connector is expected to
experience an ESD event, a series resistor is recom-
mended, with the value in the range of a few tens of
ohms, not to exceed 100.
Pull-up resistors, series diodes and capacitors on the
PGECx and PGEDx pins are not recommended as they
will interfere with the programmer/debugger communi-
cations to the device. If such discrete components are
an application requirement, they should be removed
from the circuit during programming and debugging.
Alternatively, refer to the AC/DC characteristics and
timing requirements information in the respective
device Flash programming specification for information
on capacitive loading limits and pin input voltage high
(VIH) and input low (VIL) requirements.
For device emulation, ensure that the “Communication
Channel Select” (i.e., PGECx/PGEDx pins)
programmed into the device matches the physical
connections for the ICSP to the MPLAB® ICD 2,
MPLAB ICD 3 or REAL ICE™ emulator.
For more information on the ICD 2, ICD 3 and
REAL ICE emulator connection requirements, refer to
the following documents that are available on the
Microchip web site.

2.6 External Oscillator Pins
Many microcontrollers have options for at least two
oscillators: a high-frequency primary oscillator and a
low-frequency secondary oscillator (refer to
Section 8.0 “Oscillator Configuration” for details).
The oscillator circuit should be placed on the same
side of the board as the device. Place the oscillator
circuit close to the respective oscillator pins with no
more than 0.5 inch (12 mm) between the circuit
components and the pins. The load capacitors should
be placed next to the oscillator itself, on the same side
of the board.
Use a grounded copper pour around the oscillator
circuit to isolate it from surrounding circuits. The
grounded copper pour should be routed directly to the
MCU ground. Do not run any signal traces or power
traces inside the ground pour. Also, if using a
two-sided board, avoid any traces on the other side of
the board where the crystal is placed. A suggested
layout is shown in Figure 2-4.
For additional information and design guidance on
oscillator circuits, please refer to these Microchip
Application Notes, available at the corporate web site

2.7 Configuration of Analog and
Digital Pins During ICSP
Operations
If the MPLAB ICD 2, ICD 3 or REAL ICE emulator is
selected as a debugger, it automatically initializes all of
the A/D input pins (ANx) as “digital” pins by setting all
bits in the AD1PCFGL register.
The bits in this register that correspond to the A/D pins
that are initialized by the MPLAB ICD 2, ICD 3 or REAL
ICE emulator must not be cleared by the user
application firmware; otherwise, communication errors
will result between the debugger and the device.
If your application needs to use certain A/D pins as
analog input pins during the debug session, the user
application must clear the corresponding bits in the
AD1PCFGL register during initialization of the ADC
module.
When the MPLAB ICD 2, ICD 3 or REAL ICE emulator
is used as a programmer, the user application firmware
must correctly configure the AD1PCFGL register.
Automatic initialization of this register is only done
during debugger operation. Failure to correctly
configure the register(s) will result in all A/D pins being
recognized as analog input pins, resulting in the port
value being read as a logic 0’, which may affect user
application functionality.
2.8 Unused I/Os
Unused I/O pins should be configured as outputs and
driven to a logic low state. Alternatively, connect a 1 k
to 10 k resistor to VSS on unused pins and drive the
output to logic low.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
3.0 CPU
The PIC24F CPU has a 16-bit (data) modified Harvard
architecture with an enhanced instruction set and a
24-bit instruction word with a variable length opcode
field. The Program Counter (PC) is 23 bits wide and
addresses up to 4M instructions of user program
memory space. A single-cycle instruction prefetch
mechanism is used to help maintain throughput and
provides predictable execution. All instructions execute
in a single cycle, with the exception of instructions that
change the program flow, the double-word move
(MOV.D) instruction and the table instructions.
Overhead-free program loop constructs are supported
using the REPEAT instructions, which are interruptible
at any point.
PIC24F devices have sixteen, 16-bit working registers
in the programmer’s model. Each of the working
registers can act as a data, address or address offset
register. The 16th working register (W15) operates as a
Software Stack Pointer (SSP) for interrupts and calls.
The upper 32 Kbytes of the data space memory map
can optionally be mapped into program space at any
16K word boundary of program memory defined by the
8-bit Program Space Visibility Page Address
(PSVPAG) register. The program to data space
mapping feature lets any instruction access program
space as if it were data space.
The Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) has been
significantly enhanced beyond that of the PIC18, but
maintains an acceptable level of backward
compatibility. All PIC18 instructions and addressing
modes are supported, either directly, or through simple
macros. Many of the ISA enhancements have been
driven by compiler efficiency needs.
The core supports Inherent (no operand), Relative,
Literal, Memory Direct and three groups of addressing
modes. All modes support Register Direct and various
Register Indirect modes. Each group offers up to seven
addressing modes. Instructions are associated with
predefined addressing modes depending upon their
functional requirements.
For most instructions, the core is capable of executing
a data (or program data) memory read, a working
register (data) read, a data memory write and a
program (instruction) memory read per instruction
cycle. As a result, three parameter instructions can be
supported, allowing trinary operations (that is,
A + B = C) to be executed in a single cycle.
A high-speed, 17-bit by 17-bit multiplier has been
included to significantly enhance the core arithmetic
capability and throughput. The multiplier supports
Signed, Unsigned and Mixed mode, 16-bit by 16-bit or
8-bit by 8-bit integer multiplication. All multiply
instructions execute in a single cycle.
The 16-bit ALU has been enhanced with integer divide
assist hardware that supports an iterative non-restoring
divide algorithm. It operates in conjunction with the
REPEAT instruction looping mechanism and a selection
of iterative divide instructions to support 32-bit (or
16-bit), divided by 16-bit integer signed and unsigned
division. All divide operations require 19 cycles to
complete but are interruptible at any cycle boundary.
The PIC24F has a vectored exception scheme with up
to eight sources of non-maskable traps and up to
118 interrupt sources. Each interrupt source can be
assigned to one of seven priority levels.
A block diagram of the CPU is illustrated in Figure 3-1.
3.1 Programmers Model
Figure 3-2 displays the programmer’s model for the
PIC24F. All registers in the programmer’s model are
memory mapped and can be manipulated directly by
instructions.
Table 3-1 provides a description of each register. All
registers associated with the programmer’s model are
memory mapped.
Note: This data sheet summarizes the features
of this group of PIC24F devices. It is not
intended to be a comprehensive reference
source. For more information on the CPU,
refer to the “PIC24F Family Reference
Manual, Section 2. “CPU” (DS39703).

3.3 Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
The PIC24F ALU is 16 bits wide and is capable of
addition, subtraction, bit shifts and logic operations.
Unless otherwise mentioned, arithmetic operations are
2’s complement in nature. Depending on the operation,
the ALU may affect the values of the Carry (C), Zero
(Z), Negative (N), Overflow (OV) and Digit Carry (DC)
Status bits in the SR register. The C and DC Status bits
operate as Borrow and Digit Borrow bits, respectively,
for subtraction operations.
The ALU can perform 8-bit or 16-bit operations,
depending on the mode of the instruction that is used.
Data for the ALU operation can come from the W
register array, or data memory, depending on the
addressing mode of the instruction. Likewise, output
data from the ALU can be written to the W register array
or a data memory location.
The PIC24F CPU incorporates hardware support for
both multiplication and division. This includes a
dedicated hardware multiplier and support hardware
division for 16-bit divisor.
3.3.1 MULTIPLIER
The ALU contains a high-speed, 17-bit x 17-bit
multiplier. It supports unsigned, signed or mixed sign
operation in several multiplication modes:
16-bit x 16-bit signed
16-bit x 16-bit unsigned
16-bit signed x 5-bit (literal) unsigned
16-bit unsigned x 16-bit unsigned

3.3.2 DIVIDER
The divide block supports 32-bit/16-bit and 16-bit/16-bit
signed and unsigned integer divide operations with the
following data sizes:
1. 32-bit signed/16-bit signed divide
2. 32-bit unsigned/16-bit unsigned divide
3. 16-bit signed/16-bit signed divide
4. 16-bit unsigned/16-bit unsigned divide
The quotient for all divide instructions ends up in W0
and the remainder in W1. Sixteen-bit signed and
unsigned DIV instructions can specify any W register
for both the 16-bit divisor (Wn), and any W register
(aligned) pair (W(m + 1):Wm) for the 32-bit dividend.
The divide algorithm takes one cycle per bit of divisor,
so both 32-bit/16-bit and 16-bit/16-bit instructions take
the same number of cycles to execute.
3.3.3 MULTI-BIT SHIFT SUPPORT
The PIC24F ALU supports both single bit and
single-cycle, multi-bit arithmetic and logic shifts.
Multi-bit shifts are implemented using a shifter block,
capable of performing up to a 15-bit arithmetic right
shift, or up to a 15-bit left shift, in a single cycle. All
multi-bit shift instructions only support Register Direct
Addressing for both the operand source and result
destination.
A full summary of instructions that use the shift
operation is provided below in Table 3-2.
TABLE 3-2: INSTRUCTIONS THAT USE THE SINGLE AND MULTI-BIT SHIFT OPERATION

ASR Arithmetic shift right source register by one or more bits.
SL Shift left source register by one or more bits.
LSR Logical shift right source register by one or more bits.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
4.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION
As with Harvard architecture devices, the PIC24F
microcontrollers feature separate program and data
memory space and busing. This architecture also
allows the direct access of program memory from the
data space during code execution.
4.1 Program Address Space
The program address memory space of the PIC24F
devices is 4M instructions. The space is addressable by
a 24-bit value derived from either the 23-bit Program
Counter (PC) during program execution, or from a table
operation or data space remapping, as described in
Section 4.3 “Interfacing Program and Data Memory
Spaces”.
The user access to the program memory space is
restricted to the lower half of the address range
(000000h to 7FFFFFh). The exception is the use of
TBLRD/TBLWT operations, which use TBLPAG<7> to
permit access to the Configuration bits and Device ID
sections of the configuration memory space.
The memory map for the PIC24F04KA201 family of
devices is displayed in Figure 4-1.

4.1.1 PROGRAM MEMORY
ORGANIZATION
The program memory space is organized in
word-addressable blocks. Although it is treated as
24 bits wide, it is more appropriate to think of each
address of the program memory as a lower and upper
word, with the upper byte of the upper word being
unimplemented. The lower word always has an even
address, while the upper word has an odd address
(Figure 4-2).
Program memory addresses are always word-aligned
on the lower word, and addresses are incremented or
decremented by two during code execution. This
arrangement also provides compatibility with data
memory space addressing and makes it possible to
access data in the program memory space.
4.1.2 HARD MEMORY VECTORS
All PIC24F devices reserve the addresses between
00000h and 000200h for hard coded program
execution vectors. A hardware Reset vector is provided
to redirect code execution from the default value of the
PC on device Reset to the actual start of code. A GOTO
instruction is programmed by the user at 000000h with
the actual address for the start of code at 000002h.
PIC24F devices also have two interrupt vector tables,
located from 000004h to 0000FFh and 000104h to
0001FFh. These vector tables allow each of the many
device interrupt sources to be handled by separate
ISRs. Section 7.1 “Interrupt Vector (IVT) Table”
discusses the interrupt vector tables more in detail.
4.1.3 DEVICE CONFIGURATION WORDS
Table 4-1 provides the addresses of the device Config-
uration Words for the PIC24F04KA201 family. Their
location in the memory map is displayed in Figure 4-1.
Refer to Section 23.1 “Configuration Bits” for more
information on device Configuration Words.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
4.2 Data Address Space
The PIC24F core has a separate, 16-bit wide data
memory space, addressable as a single linear range.
The data space is accessed using two Address
Generation Units (AGUs), one each for read and write
operations. The data space memory map is displayed
in Figure 4-3.
All Effective Addresses (EAs) in the data memory space
are 16 bits wide and point to bytes within the data space.
This gives a data space address range of 64 Kbytes or
32K words. The lower half of the data memory space
(that is, when EA<15> = 0) is used for implemented
memory addresses, while the upper half (EA<15> = 1) is
reserved for the Program Space Visibility (PSV) area
(see Section 4.3.3 “Reading Data From Program
Memory Using Program Spa ce Visibility”).
PIC24F04KA201 family devices implement a total of
768 words of data memory. Should an EA point to a
location outside of this area, an all zero word or byte will
be returned.
4.2.1 DATA SPACE WIDTH
The data memory space is organized in
byte-addressable, 16-bit wide blocks. Data is aligned in
data memory and registers as 16-bit words, but all the
data space EAs resolve to bytes. The Least Significant
Bytes (LSBs) of each word have even addresses, while
the Most Significant Bytes (MSBs) have odd
addresses.

4.2.2 DATA MEMORY ORGANIZATION
AND ALIGNMENT
To maintain backward compatibility with PIC® devices
and improve data space memory usage efficiency, the
PIC24F instruction set supports both word and byte
operations. As a consequence of byte accessibility, all
EA calculations are internally scaled to step through
word-aligned memory. For example, the core recog-
nizes that Post-Modified Register Indirect Addressing
mode [Ws++] will result in a value of Ws + 1 for byte
operations and Ws + 2 for word operations.
Data byte reads will read the complete word, which
contains the byte, using the LSB of any EA to
determine which byte to select. The selected byte is
placed onto the LSB of the data path. That is, the data
memory and the registers are organized as two
parallel, byte-wide entities with shared (word) address
decode but separate write lines. Data byte writes only
write to the corresponding side of the array or register,
which matches the byte address.
All word accesses must be aligned to an even address.
Misaligned word data fetches are not supported, so
care must be taken when mixing byte and word
operations, or translating from 8-bit MCU code. If a mis-
aligned read or write is attempted, an address error
trap will be generated. If the error occurred on a read,
the instruction underway is completed; if it occurred on
a write, the instruction will be executed, but the write
will not occur. In either case, a trap is then executed,
allowing the system and/or user to examine the
machine state prior to execution of the address Fault.
All byte loads into any W register are loaded into the
LSB. The MSB is not modified.
A sign-extend instruction (SE) is provided to allow the
users to translate 8-bit signed data to 16-bit signed
values. Alternatively, for 16-bit unsigned data, users
can clear the MSB of any W register by executing a
zero-extend (ZE) instruction on the appropriate
address.
Although most instructions are capable of operating on
word or byte data sizes, it should be noted that some
instructions operate only on words.
4.2.3 NEAR DATA SPACE
The 8-Kbyte area between 0000h and 1FFFh is
referred to as the near data space. Locations in this
space are directly addressable via a 13-bit absolute
address field within all memory direct instructions. The
remainder of the data space is addressable indirectly.
Additionally, the whole data space is addressable using
MOV instructions, which support Memory Direct
Addressing (MDA) with a 16-bit address field. For
PIC24F04KA201 family devices, the entire
implemented data memory lies in Near Data Space
(NDS).
4.2.4 SFR SPACE
The first 2 Kbytes of the near data space, from 0000h
to 07FFh, are primarily occupied with Special Function
Registers (SFRs). These are used by the PIC24F core
and peripheral modules for controlling the operation of
the device.
SFRs are distributed among the modules that they
control and are generally grouped together by that
module. Much of the SFR space contains unused
addresses; these are read as ‘0’. The SFR space,
where the SFRs are actually implemented, is provided
in Table 4-2. Each implemented area indicates a
32-byte region where at least one address is
implemented as an SFR. A complete listing of
implemented SFRs, including their addresses, is
provided in Table 4-3 through Table 4-21.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
4.2.5 SOFTWARE STACK
In addition to its use as a working register, the W15
register in PIC24F devices is also used as a Software
Stack Pointer. The pointer always points to the first
available free word and grows from lower to higher
addresses. It pre-decrements for stack pops and
post-increments for stack pushes, as depicted in
Figure 4-4.
For a PC push during any CALL instruction, the MSB of
the PC is zero-extended before the push, ensuring that
the MSB is always clear.
The Stack Pointer Limit Value (SPLIM) register,
associated with the Stack Pointer, sets an upper
address boundary for the stack. SPLIM is uninitialized
at Reset. As is the case for the Stack Pointer,
SPLIM<0> is forced to ‘0’ as all stack operations must
be word-aligned. Whenever an EA is generated using
W15 as a source or destination pointer, the resulting
address is compared with the value in SPLIM. If the
contents of the Stack Pointer (W15) and the SPLIM
register are equal, and a push operation is performed,
a stack error trap will not occur. The stack error trap will
occur on a subsequent push operation.
Thus, for example, if it is desirable to cause a stack
error trap when the stack grows beyond address 09FF
in RAM, initialize the SPLIM with the value, 09FD.
Similarly, a Stack Pointer underflow (stack error) trap is
generated when the Stack Pointer address is found to
be less than 0800h. This prevents the stack from
interfering with the Special Function Register (SFR)
space.
FIGURE 4-4: CALL STACK FRAME
4.3 Interfaci ng Program and Data
Memory Spaces
The PIC24F architecture uses a 24-bit wide program
space and 16-bit wide data space. The architecture is
also a modified Harvard scheme, meaning that data
can also be present in the program space. To use this
data successfully, it must be accessed in a way that
preserves the alignment of information in both spaces.
Apart from the normal execution, the PIC24F
architecture provides two methods by which the
program space can be accessed during operation:
Using table instructions to access individual bytes
or words anywhere in the program space
Remapping a portion of the program space into
the data space, PSV
Table instructions allow an application to read or write
small areas of the program memory. This makes the
method ideal for accessing data tables that need to be
updated from time to time. It also allows access to all
bytes of the program word. The remapping method
allows an application to access a large block of data on
a read-only basis, which is ideal for look ups from a
large table of static data. It can only access the least
significant word (lsw) of the program word.
4.3.1 ADDRESSING PROGRAM SPACE
Since the address ranges for the data and program
spaces are 16 and 24 bits, respectively, a method is
needed to create a 23-bit or 24-bit program address
from 16-bit data registers. The solution depends on the
interface method to be used.
For table operations, the 8-bit Table Memory Page
Address register (TBLPAG) is used to define a 32K word
region within the program space. This is concatenated
with a 16-bit EA to arrive at a full 24-bit program space
address. In this format, the Most Significant bit (MSb) of
TBLPAG is used to determine if the operation occurs in
the user memory (TBLPAG<7> = 0) or the configuration
memory (TBLPAG<7> = 1).
For remapping operations, the 8-bit Program Space
Visibility Page Address register (PSVPAG) is used to
define a 16K word page in the program space. When
the MSb of the EA is ‘1’, PSVPAG is concatenated with
the lower 15 bits of the EA to form a 23-bit program
space address. Unlike the table operations, this limits
remapping operations strictly to the user memory area.
See Table 4-22 and Figure 4-5 to know how the
program EA is created for table operations and
remapping accesses from the data EA. Here, P<23:0>
refers to a program space word, whereas D<15:0>
refers to a data space word.
Note: A PC push during exception processing
will concatenate the SRL register to the
MSB of the PC prior to the push.
Note: A write to the SPLIM register should not be
immediately followed by an indirect read
operation using W15.

4.3.2 DATA ACCESS FROM PROGRAM
MEMORY USING TABLE
INSTRUCTIONS
The TBLRDL and TBLWTL instructions offer a direct
method of reading or writing the lower word of any
address within the program memory without going
through data space. The TBLRDH and TBLWTH instruc-
tions are the only method to read or write the upper 8 bits
of a program space word as data.
The PC is incremented by 2 for each successive
24-bit program word. This allows program memory
addresses to directly map to data space addresses.
Program memory can thus be regarded as two 16-bit
word-wide address spaces, residing side by side, each
with the same address range. TBLRDL and TBLWTL
access the space which contains the least significant
data word, and TBLRDH and TBLWTH access the space
which contains the upper data byte.
Two table instructions are provided to move byte or
word-sized (16-bit) data to and from program space.
Both function as either byte or word operations.
1. TBLRDL (Table Read Low): In Word mode, it
maps the lower word of the program space
location (P<15:0>) to a data address (D<15:0>).
In Byte mode, either the upper or lower byte of
the lower program word is mapped to the lower
byte of a data address. The upper byte is
selected when byte select is1’; the lower byte
is selected when it is0’.
2. TBLRDH (Table Read High): In Word mode, it
maps the entire upper word of a program address
(P<23:16>) to a data address. Note that
D<15:8>, the ‘phantom’ byte, will always be0’.
In Byte mode, it maps the upper or lower byte of
the program word to D<7:0> of the data
address, as above. Note that the data will
always be ‘0’ when the upper ‘phantom’ byte is
selected (byte select = 1).
In a similar fashion, two table instructions, TBLWTH
and TBLWTL, are used to write individual bytes or
words to a program space address. The details of
their operation are explained in Section 5.0 “Flash
Program Memory”.
For all table operations, the area of program memory
space to be accessed is determined by the Table
Memory Page Address register (TBLPAG). TBLPAG
covers the entire program memory space of the
device, including user and configuration spaces. When
TBLPAG<7> = 0, the table page is located in the user
memory space. When TBLPAG<7> = 1, the page is
located in configuration space.
Note: Only table read operations will execute in
the configuration memory space, and only
then, in implemented areas such as the
Device ID. Table write operations are not
allowed.

FIGURE 4-6: ACCESSING PROGRAM MEMORY WITH TABLE INSTRUCTIONS
4.3.3 READING DATA FROM PROGRAM
MEMORY USING PROGRAM SPACE
VISIBILITY
The upper 32 Kbytes of data space may optionally be
mapped into an 8K word page (in PIC24F08KA1XX
devices) and a 16K word page (in PIC24F16KA1XX
devices) of the program space. This provides
transparent access of stored constant data from the
data space without the need to use special instructions
(i.e., TBLRDL/H).
Program space access through the data space occurs
if the MSb of the data space EA is1’, and PSV is
enabled by setting the PSV bit in the CPU Control
(CORCON<2>) register. The location of the program
memory space to be mapped into the data space is
determined by the Program Space Visibility Page
Address register (PSVPAG). This 8-bit register defines
any one of 256 possible pages of 16K words in pro-
gram space. In effect, PSVPAG functions as the upper
8 bits of the program memory address, with the 15 bits
of the EA functioning as the lower bits.
By incrementing the PC by 2 for each program memory
word, the lower 15 bits of data space addresses directly
map to the lower 15 bits in the corresponding program
space addresses.
Data reads from this area add an additional cycle to the
instruction being executed, since two program memory
fetches are required.
Although each data space address, 8000h and higher,
maps directly into a corresponding program memory
address (see Figure 4-7), only the lower 16 bits of the
24-bit program word are used to contain the data. The
upper 8 bits of any program space locations used as
data should be programmed with ‘1111 1111’ or
0000 0000’ to force a NOP. This prevents possible
issues should the area of code ever be accidentally
executed.
For operations that use PSV and are executed outside
a REPEAT loop, the MOV and MOV.D instructions will
require one instruction cycle in addition to the specified
execution time. All other instructions will require two
instruction cycles in addition to the specified execution
time.
For operations that use PSV, which are executed inside
a REPEAT loop, there will be some instances that
require two instruction cycles in addition to the
specified execution time of the instruction:
Execution in the first iteration
Execution in the last iteration
Execution prior to exiting the loop due to an
interrupt
Execution upon re-entering the loop after an
interrupt is serviced

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
5.0 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY
The PIC24F04KA201 family of devices contains
internal Flash program memory for storing and
executing application code. The memory is readable,
writable and erasable when operating with VDD over
1.8V.
Flash memory can be programmed in three ways:
In-Circuit Serial Programming™ (ICSP™)
Run-Time Self Programming (RTSP)
Enhanced In-Circuit Serial Programming
(Enhanced ICSP)
ICSP allows a PIC24FXXXX device to be serially pro-
grammed while in the end application circuit. This is
simply done with two lines for the programming clock
and programming data (which are named PGCx and
PGDx, respectively), and three other lines for power
(VDD), ground (VSS) and Master Clear/Program Mode
Entry Voltage (MCLR/VPP). This allows customers to
manufacture boards with unprogrammed devices and
then program the microcontroller just before shipping
the product. This also allows the most recent firmware
or custom firmware to be programmed.
Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) is accomplished
using TBLRD (table read) and TBLWT (table write)
instructions. With RTSP, the user may write program
memory data in blocks of 32 instructions (96 bytes) at
a time, and erase program memory in blocks of 32, 64
and 128 instructions (96,192 and 384 bytes) at a time.
The NVMOP<1:0> (NVMCON<1:0>) bits decide the
erase block size.
5.1 Table Instructions and Flash
Programming
Regardless of the method used, Flash memory
programming is done with the table read and write
instructions. These allow direct read and write access to
the program memory space from the data memory while
the device is in normal operating mode. The 24-bit target
address in the program memory is formed using the
TBLPAG<7:0> bits and the Effective Address (EA) from
a W register, specified in the table instruction, as
depicted in Figure 5-1.
The TBLRDL and the TBLWTL instructions are used to
read or write to bits<15:0> of program memory.
TBLRDL and TBLWTL can access program memory in
both Word and Byte modes.
The TBLRDH and TBLWTH instructions are used to read
or write to bits<23:16> of program memory. TBLRDH
and TBLWTH can also access program memory in Word
or Byte mode.

5.2 RTSP Operation
The PIC24F Flash program memory array is organized
into rows of 32 instructions or 96 bytes. RTSP allows
the user to erase blocks of 1 row, 2 rows and 4 rows
(32, 64 and 128 instructions) at a time and to program
one row at a time. It is also possible to program single
words.
The 1-row (96 bytes), 2-row (192 bytes) and 4-row
(384 bytes) erase blocks and single row write block
(96 bytes) are edge-aligned, from the beginning of
program memory.
When data is written to program memory using TBLWT
instructions, the data is not written directly to memory.
Instead, data written using table writes is stored in holding
latches until the programming sequence is executed.
Any number of TBLWT instructions can be executed
and a write will be successfully performed. However,
32 TBLWT instructions are required to write the full row
of memory.
The basic sequence for RTSP programming is to set up
a Table Pointer, then do a series of TBLWT instructions to
load the buffers. Programming is performed by setting
the control bits in the NVMCON register.
Data can be loaded in any order and the holding
registers can be written to multiple times before
performing a write operation. Subsequent writes,
however, will wipe out any previous writes.
All of the table write operations are single-word writes
(two instruction cycles), because only the buffers are
written. A programming cycle is required for
programming each row.
5.3 Enhanc ed In -Cir c u it Se r ia l
Programming
Enhanced ICSP uses an on-board bootloader, known
as the program executive, to manage the programming
process. Using an SPI data frame format, the program
executive can erase, program and verify program
memory. For more information on Enhanced ICSP, see
the device programming specification.
5.4 Control Registers
There are two SFRs used to read and write the
program Flash memory: NVMCON and NVMKEY.
The NVMCON register (Register 5-1) controls the
blocks that need to be erased, which memory type is to
be programmed and when the programming cycle
starts.
NVMKEY is a write-only register that is used for write
protection. To start a programming or erase sequence,
the user must consecutively write 55h and AAh to the
NVMKEY register. Refer to Section 5.5 “Programming
Operations” for further details.
5.5 Programming Operations
A complete programming sequence is necessary for
programming or erasing the internal Flash in RTSP
mode. During a programming or erase operation, the
processor stalls (waits) until the operation is finished.
Setting the WR bit (NVMCON<15>) starts the
operation and the WR bit is automatically cleared when
the operation is finished.
Note: Writing to a location multiple times without
erasing it is not recommended.

5.5.1 PROGRAMMING ALGORITHM FOR
FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY
The user can program one row of Flash program
memory at a time by erasing the programmable row.
The general process is:
1. Read a row of program memory
(32 instructions) and store in data RAM.
2. Update the program data in RAM with the
desired new data.
3. Erase a row (see Example 5-1):
a) Set the NVMOP bits (NVMCON<5:0>) to
011000’ to configure for row erase. Set the
ERASE (NVMCON<6>) and WREN
(NVMCON<14>) bits.
b) Write the starting address of the block to be
erased into the TBLPAG and W registers.
c) Write 55h to NVMKEY.
d) Write AAh to NVMKEY.
e) Set the WR bit (NVMCON<15>). The erase
cycle begins and the CPU stalls for the
duration of the erase cycle. When the erase is
done, the WR bit is cleared automatically.
4. Write the first 32 instructions from data RAM into
the program memory buffers (see Example 5-1).
5. Write the program block to Flash memory:
a) Set the NVMOP bits to011000’ to
configure for row programming. Clear the
ERASE bit and set the WREN bit.
b) Write 55h to NVMKEY.
c) Write AAh to NVMKEY.
d) Set the WR bit. The programming cycle
begins and the CPU stalls for the duration of
the write cycle. When the write to Flash
memory is done, the WR bit is cleared
automatically.
For protection against accidental operations, the write
initiate sequence for NVMKEY must be used to allow
any erase or program operation to proceed. After the
programming command has been executed, the user
must wait for the programming time until programming
is complete. The two instructions following the start of
the programming sequence should be NOPs, as
displayed in Example 5-5.

6.0 RESETS
The Reset module combines all Reset sources and
controls the device Master Reset Signal, SYSRST. The
following is a list of device Reset sources:
POR: Power-on Reset
•MCLR
: Pin Reset
•SWR: RESET Instruction
WDTR: Watchdog Timer Reset
BOR: Brown-out Reset
Low-Power BOR/Deep Sleep BOR
TRAPR: Trap Conflict Reset
IOPUWR: Illegal Opcode Reset
UWR: Uninitialized W Register Reset
Figure 6-1 displays a simplified block diagram of the
Reset module.
Any active source of Reset will make the SYSRST
signal active. Many registers associated with the CPU
and peripherals are forced to a known Reset state.
Most registers are unaffected by a Reset; their status is
unknown on Power-on Reset (POR) and unchanged by
all other Resets.
All types of device Reset will set a corresponding status
bit in the RCON register to indicate the type of Reset
(see Register 6-1). A POR will clear all bits except for
the BOR and POR bits (RCON<1:0>) which are set.
The user may set or clear any bit at any time during
code execution. The RCON bits only serve as status
bits. Setting a particular Reset status bit in software will
not cause a device Reset to occur.
The RCON register also has other bits associated with
the Watchdog Timer (WDT) and device power-saving
states. The function of these bits is discussed in other
sections of this manual.
FIGURE 6-1: RES E T SYSTEM BLOCK DIAGRAM

Manual, Section 40. “Reset with
Programmable Brown-out Reset”
(DS39728).
Note: Refer to the specific peripheral or CPU
section of this manual for register Reset
states.
Note: The status bits in the RCON register
should be cleared after they are read so
that the next RCON register value after a
device Reset will be meaningful.

6.2 Device Reset Times
The Reset times for various types of device Reset are
summarized in Table 6-3. Note that the system Reset
signal, SYSRST, is released after the POR and PWRT
delay times expire.
The time at which the device actually begins to execute
code will also depend on the system oscillator delays,
which include the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) and
the PLL lock time. The OST and PLL lock times occur
in parallel with the applicable SYSRST delay times.
The FSCM delay determines the time at which the
FSCM begins to monitor the system clock source after
the SYSRST signal is released.

4: TLOCK = PLL lock time.
5: TOST = Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST). A 10-bit counter waits 1024 oscillator periods before releasing
oscillator clock to the system.
6: If Two-Speed Start-up is enabled, regardless of the Primary Oscillator selected, the device starts with FRC,
and in such cases, FRC start-up time is valid.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
6.3 Brown-out Reset (BOR)
The PIC24F04KA201 family devices implement a BOR
circuit, which provides the user several configuration
and power-saving options. The BOR is controlled by
the <BORV1:BORV0> and (BOREN<1:0>) Configura-
tion bits (FPOR<6:5,1:0>). There are a total of four
BOR configurations, which are provided in Table 6.3.1.
The BOR threshold is set by the BORV<1:0> bits. If
BOR is enabled (any values of BOREN<1:0>, except
00’), any drop of VDD below the set threshold point will
reset the device. The chip will remain in BOR until VDD
rises above threshold.
If the Power-up Timer is enabled, it will be invoked after
VDD rises above the threshold; it, then, will keep the chip
in Reset for an additional time delay, TPWRT, if VDD drops
below the threshold while the power-up timer is running.
The chip goes back into a BOR and the Power-up Timer
will be initialized. Once VDD rises above the threshold,
the Power-up Timer will execute the additional time
delay.
BOR and the Power-up Timer are independently
configured. Enabling the BOR Reset does not
automatically enable the PWRT.
6.3.1 SOFTWARE ENABLED BOR
When BOREN<1:0> = 01, the BOR can be enabled or
disabled by the user in software. This is done with the
control bit, SBOREN (RCON<13>). Setting SBOREN
enables the BOR to function as previously described.
Clearing the SBOREN disables the BOR entirely. The
SBOREN bit operates only in this mode; otherwise, it is
read as ‘0’.
Placing BOR under software control gives the user the
additional flexibility of tailoring the application to its
environment without having to reprogram the device to
change the BOR configuration. It also allows the user
to tailor the incremental current that the BOR con-
sumes. While the BOR current is typically very small, it
may have some impact in low-power applications.
6.3.2 DETECTING BOR
When BOR is enabled, the BOR bit (RCON<1>) is
always reset to ‘1’ on any BOR or POR event. This
makes it difficult to determine if a BOR event has
occurred just by reading the state of BOR alone. A
more reliable method is to simultaneously check the
state of both POR and BOR. This assumes that the
POR and BOR bits are reset to ‘0’ in the software
immediately after any POR event. If the BOR bit is ‘1
while POR is ‘0’, it can be reliably assumed that a BOR
event has occurred.
6.3.3 DISABLING BOR IN SLEEP MODE
When BOREN<1:0> = 10, BOR remains under hard-
ware control and operates as previously described.
However, whenever the device enters Sleep mode,
BOR is automatically disabled. When the device
returns to any other operating mode, BOR is
automatically re-enabled.
This mode allows for applications to recover from
brown-out situations, while actively executing code,
when the device requires BOR protection the most. At
the same time, it saves additional power in Sleep mode
by eliminating the small incremental BOR current.
6.3.4 DEEP SLEEP BOR (DSBOR)
Deep Sleep BOR is a very low-power BOR circuitry.
Due to low current consumption, accuracy may vary.
DSBOR occurs anywhere between 1.55V and 1.95V.
DSBOR is selected in configuration through the
BORV<1:0> (FPOR<6:5>) bits = 00.
DSBOR re-arms the POR anywhere between 1.55V
and 1.95V; however, below 1.55V, the POR is asserted.
Note: Even when the BOR is under software
control, the BOR Reset voltage level is still
set by the BORV1:BORV0 Configuration
bits. It can not be changed in software.
Note: Even when the device exits from Deep
Sleep mode, both the POR and BOR are
set.

DS39937B-page 56 Preliminary © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.
6.3.5 POR AND LONG OSCILLATOR
START-UP TIMES
The oscillator start-up circuitry and its associated delay
timers are not linked to the device Reset delays that
occur at power-up. Some crystal circuits (especially
low-frequency crystals) will have a relatively long
start-up time. Therefore, one or more of the following
conditions is possible after SYSRST is released:
The oscillator circuit has not begun to oscillate.
The Oscillator Start-up Timer has not expired (if a
crystal oscillator is used).
The PLL has not achieved a lock (if PLL is used).
The device will not begin to execute code until a valid
clock source has been released to the system. There-
fore, the oscillator and PLL start-up delays must be
considered when the Reset delay time must be known.
6.3.6 FAIL-SAFE CLOCK MONITOR
(FSCM) AND DEVICE RESETS
If the FSCM is enabled, it will begin to monitor the
system clock source when SYSRST is released. If a
valid clock source is not available at this time, the
device will automatically switch to the FRC Oscillator
and the user can switch to the desired crystal oscillator
in the Trap Service Routine (TSR).
6.4 S pecial Function Regist er Reset
States
Most of the Special Function Registers (SFRs) associ-
ated with the PIC24F CPU and peripherals are reset to a
particular value at a device Reset. The SFRs are
grouped by their peripheral or CPU function and their
Reset values are specified in each section of this manual.
The Reset value for each SFR does not depend on the
type of Reset with the exception of four registers. The
Reset value for the Reset Control register, RCON, will
depend on the type of device Reset. The Reset value
for the Oscillator Control register, OSCCON, will
depend on the type of Reset and the programmed
values of the FNOSC bits in Flash Configuration Word
(FOSCSEL); see Table 6-2. The RCFGCAL and
NVMCON registers are only affected by a POR.
6.5 Deep Sleep BOR (DSBOR)
Deep Sleep BOR is a very low-power BOR circuitry,
used when the device is in Deep Sleep mode. Due to
low-current consumption, accuracy may vary.
The DSBOR trip point is around 2.0V. DSBOR is
enabled by configuring FDS <DSLPBOR> = 1.
DSLPBOR will re-arm the POR to ensure the device will
reset if VDD drops below the POR threshold.

IVT contains 126 vectors, consisting of eight
non-maskable trap vectors, plus, up to 118 sources of
interrupt. In general, each interrupt source has its own
vector. Each interrupt vector contains a 24-bit wide
address. The value programmed into each interrupt
vector location is the starting address of the associated
Interrupt Service Routine (ISR).
Interrupt vectors are prioritized in terms of their natural
priority; this is linked to their position in the vector table.
All other things being equal, lower addresses have a
higher natural priority. For example, the interrupt
associated with vector 0 will take priority over interrupts
at any other vector address.
PIC24F04KA201 family devices implement
non-maskable traps and unique interrupts; these are
summarized in Table 7-1 and Table 7-2.
7.2 Reset Sequence
A device Reset is not a true exception because the
interrupt controller is not involved in the Reset process.
The PIC24F devices clear their registers in response to
a Reset, which forces the Program Counter (PC) to
zero. The microcontroller then begins program execu-
tion at location 000000h. The user programs a GOTO
instruction at the Reset address, which redirects the
program execution to the appropriate start-up routine.

“Interrupts” (DS39707).
Note: Any unimplemented or unused vector
locations in the IVT should be

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
7.3 Interrupt Control and Status
Registers
The PIC24F04KA201 family of devices implements a
total of 23 registers for the interrupt controller:
INTCON1
INTCON2
IFS0, IFS1, IFS3 and IFS4
IEC0, IEC1, IEC3 and IEC4
IPC0 through IPC5, IPC7 and IPC15 through
IPC19
•INTTREG
Global interrupt control functions are controlled from
INTCON1 and INTCON2. INTCON1 contains the
Interrupt Nesting Disable (NSTDIS) bit, as well as the
control and status flags for the processor trap sources.
The INTCON2 register controls the external interrupt
request signal behavior and the use of the AIV table.
The IFSx registers maintain all of the interrupt request
flags. Each source of interrupt has a status bit, which is
set by the respective peripherals, or external signal,
and is cleared via software.
The IECx registers maintain all of the interrupt enable
bits. These control bits are used to individually enable
interrupts from the peripherals or external signals.
The IPCx registers are used to set the interrupt priority
level for each source of interrupt. Each user interrupt
source can be assigned to one of eight priority levels.
The INTTREG register contains the associated inter-
rupt vector number and the new CPU interrupt priority
level, which are latched into the Vector Number
(VECNUM<6:0>) and the Interrupt Level (ILR<3:0>) bit
fields in the INTTREG register. The new interrupt
priority level is the priority of the pending interrupt.
The interrupt sources are assigned to the IFSx, IECx
and IPCx registers in the same sequence listed in
Table 7-2. For example, the INT0 (External Interrupt 0)
is depicted as having a vector number and a natural
order priority of 0. Thus, the INT0IF status bit is found
in IFS0<0>, the INT0IE enable bit in IEC0<0> and the
INT0IP<2:0> priority bits in the first position of IPC0
(IPC0<2:0>).
Although they are not specifically part of the interrupt
control hardware, two of the CPU control registers
contain bits that control interrupt functionality. The ALU
STATUS register (SR) contains the IPL<2:0> bits
(SR<7:5>). These indicate the current CPU interrupt
priority level. The user may change the current CPU
priority level by writing to the IPL bits.
The CORCON register contains the IPL3 bit, which
together with IPL<2:0>, also indicates the current CPU
priority level. IPL3 is a read-only bit so that the trap
events cannot be masked by the user’s software.
All interrupt registers are described in Register 7-1
through Register 7-18, in the following sections.

7.4 Interrupt Setup Procedures
7.4.1 INITIALIZATION
To configure an interrupt source:
1. Set the NSTDIS Control bit (INTCON1<15>) if
nested interrupts are not desired.
2. Select the user-assigned priority level for the
interrupt source by writing the control bits in the
appropriate IPCx register. The priority level will
depend on the specific application and type of
interrupt source. If multiple priority levels are not
desired, the IPCx register control bits for all
enabled interrupt sources may be programmed
to the same non-zero value.
3. Clear the interrupt flag status bit associated with
the peripheral in the associated IFSx register.
4. Enable the interrupt source by setting the
interrupt enable control bit associated with the
source in the appropriate IECx register.
7.4.2 INTERRUPT SERVICE ROUTINE
The method that is used to declare an ISR and initialize
the IVT with the correct vector address depends on the
programming language (i.e., C or assembler) and the
language development toolsuite that is used to develop
the application. In general, the user must clear the
interrupt flag in the appropriate IFSx register for the
source of the interrupt that the ISR handles. Otherwise,
the ISR will be re-entered immediately after exiting the
routine. If the ISR is coded in assembly language, it
must be terminated using a RETFIE instruction to
unstack the saved PC value, SRL value and old CPU
priority level.
7.4.3 TRAP SERVICE ROUTINE (TSR)
A Trap Service Routine (TSR) is coded like an ISR,
except that the appropriate trap status flag in the
INTCON1 register must be cleared to avoid re-entry
into the TSR.
7.4.4 INTERRUPT DISABLE
All user interrupts can be disabled using the following
procedure:
1. Push the current SR value onto the software
stack using the PUSH instruction.
2. Force the CPU to priority level 7 by inclusive
ORing the value OEh with SRL.
To enable user interrupts, the POP instruction may be
used to restore the previous SR value.
Only user interrupts with a priority level of 7 or less can
be disabled. Trap sources (level 8-15) cannot be
disabled.
The DISI instruction provides a convenient way to
disable interrupts of priority levels 1-6 for a fixed period.
Level 7 interrupt sources are not disabled by the DISI
instruction.
Note: At a device Reset, the IPCx registers are
initialized, such that all user interrupt
sources are assigned to priority level 4.

8.0 OSCILLATOR
CONFIGURATION
The oscillator system for the PIC24F04KA201 family of
devices has the following features:
A total of five external and internal oscillator options
as clock sources, providing 11 different clock
modes.
On-chip 4x Phase Locked Loop (PLL) to boost
internal operating frequency on select internal and
external oscillator sources.
Software-controllable switching between various
clock sources.
Software-controllable postscaler for selective
clocking of CPU for system power savings.
System frequency range declaration bits for EC
mode. When using an external clock source, the
current consumption is reduced by setting the
declaration bits to the expected frequency range.
A Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) that detects clock
failure and permits safe application recovery or
shutdown.
Figure 8-1 provides a simplified diagram of the oscillator
system.

8.1 CPU Clocking Scheme
The system clock source can be provided by one of
four sources:
Primary Oscillator (POSC) on the OSCI and OSCO
pins
Secondary Oscillator (SOSC) on the SOSCI and
SOSCO pins
The PIC24F04KA201 family devices consist of two
types of secondary oscillator:
- High-Power Secondary Oscillator
- Low-Power Secondary Oscillator
These can be selected by using the SOSCSEL
(FOSC<5>) bit.
Fast Internal RC (FRC) Oscillator
- 8 MHz FRC Oscillator
- 500 kHz Lower Power FRC Oscillator
Low-Power Internal RC (LPRC) Oscillator
The primary oscillator and 8 MHz FRC sources have
the option of using the internal 4x PLL. The frequency
of the FRC clock source can optionally be reduced by
the programmable clock divider. The selected clock
source generates the processor and peripheral clock
sources.
The processor clock source is divided by two to produce
the internal instruction cycle clock, FCY. In this docu-
ment, the instruction cycle clock is also denoted by
FOSC/2. The internal instruction cycle clock, FOSC/2, can
be provided on the OSCO I/O pin for some operating
modes of the primary oscillator.
8.2 Initial Con fi guration on POR
The oscillator source (and operating mode) that is used
at a device Power-on Reset (POR) event is selected
using Configuration bit settings. The oscillator
Configuration bit settings are located in the Configuration
registers in the program memory (refer to Section 23.1
“Configuration Bits” for further details). The Primary
Oscillator Configuration bits, POSCMD<1:0>
(FOSC<1:0>), and the Initial Oscillator Select Configura-
tion bits, FNOSC<2:0> (FOSCSEL<2:0>), select the
oscillator source that is used at a POR. The FRC primary
oscillator with postscaler (FRCDIV) is the default (unpro-
grammed) selection. The secondary oscillator, or one of
the internal oscillators, may be chosen by programming
these bit locations. The EC mode frequency range
Configuration bits, POSCFREQ<1:0> (FOSC<4:3>),
optimize power consumption when running in EC
mode. The default configuration is “frequency range is
greater than 8 MHz”.
The Configuration bits allow users to choose between
the various clock modes, shown in Table 8-1.
8.2.1 CLOCK SWITCHING MODE
CONFIGURATION BITS
The FCKSM Configuration bits (FOSC<7:6>) are used
jointly to configure device clock switching and the
FSCM. Clock switching is enabled only when FCKSM1
is programmed (‘0’). The FSCM is enabled only when
FCKSM<1:0> are both programmed (‘00’).

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
8.3 Control Registers
The operation of the oscillator is controlled by three
Special Function Registers (SFRs):
OSCCON
•CLKDIV
•OSCTUN
The OSCCON register (Register 8-1) is the main con-
trol register for the oscillator. It controls clock source
switching and allows the monitoring of clock sources.
The Clock Divider register (Register 8-2) controls the
features associated with Doze mode, as well as the
postscaler for the FRC oscillator.
The FRC Oscillator Tune register (Register 8-3) allows
the user to fine tune the FRC oscillator over a range of
approximately ±12%. Each bit increment or decrement
changes the factory calibrated frequency of the FRC
oscillator by a fixed amount.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
8.4 Clock Switching Operation
With few limitations, applications are free to switch
between any of the four clock sources (POSC, SOSC,
FRC and LPRC) under software control and at any
time. To limit the possible side effects that could result
from this flexibility, PIC24F devices have a safeguard
lock built into the switching process.
8.4.1 ENABLING CLOCK SWITCHING
To enable clock switching, the FCKSM1 Configuration bit
in the FOSC Configuration register must be programmed
to ‘0’. (Refer to Section 23.1 “Configuration Bits” for
further details.) If the FCKSM1 Configuration bit is unpro-
grammed (‘1’), the clock switching function and FSCM
function are disabled. This is the default setting.
The NOSCx control bits (OSCCON<10:8>) do not
control the clock selection when clock switching is
disabled. However, the COSCx bits (OSCCON<14:12>)
will reflect the clock source selected by the FNOSCx
Configuration bits.
The OSWEN control bit (OSCCON<0>) has no effect
when clock switching is disabled; it is held at ‘0’ at all
times.
8.4.2 OSCILLATOR SWITCHING
SEQUENCE
At a minimum, performing a clock switch requires this
basic sequence:
1. If desired, read the COSCx bits (OSCCON<14:12>),
to determine the current oscillator source.
2. Perform the unlock sequence to allow a write to
the OSCCON register high byte.
3. Write the appropriate value to the NOSCx bits
(OSCCON<10:8>) for the new oscillator source.
4. Perform the unlock sequence to allow a write to
the OSCCON register low byte.
5. Set the OSWEN bit to initiate the oscillator
switch.
Once the basic sequence is completed, the system
clock hardware responds automatically as follows:
1. The clock switching hardware compares the
COSCx bits with the new value of the NOSCx
bits. If they are the same, then the clock switch
is a redundant operation. In this case, the
OSWEN bit is cleared automatically and the
clock switch is aborted.
2. If a valid clock switch has been initiated, the
LOCK (OSCCON<5>) and CF (OSCCON<3>)
bits are cleared.
3. The new oscillator is turned on by the hardware
if it is not currently running. If a crystal oscillator
must be turned on, the hardware will wait until
the OST expires. If the new source is using the
PLL, then the hardware waits until a PLL lock is
detected (LOCK = 1).
4. The hardware waits for 10 clock cycles from the
new clock source and then performs the clock
switch.
5. The hardware clears the OSWEN bit to indicate a
successful clock transition. In addition, the
NOSCx bits value is transferred to the COSCx
bits.
6. The old clock source is turned off at this time,
with the exception of LPRC (if WDT or FSCM
with LPRC as a clock source is enabled) or
SOSC (if SOSCEN remains enabled).
Note: The primary oscillator mode has three
different submodes (XT, HS and EC),
which are determined by the POSCMDx
Configuration bits. While an application
can switch to and from primary oscillator
mode in software, it cannot switch
between the different primary submodes
without reprogramming the device.
Note 1: The processor will continue to execute
code throughout the clock switching
sequence. Timing-sensitive code should
not be executed during this time.
2: Direct clock switches between any
primary oscillator mode with PLL and
FRCPLL mode are not permitted. This
applies to clock switches in either
direction. In these instances, the
application must switch to FRC mode as
a transition clock source between the two
PLL modes.
PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
DS39937B-page 88 Preliminary © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.
The following code sequence for a clock switch is
recommended:
1. Disable interrupts during the OSCCON register
unlock and write sequence.
2. Execute the unlock sequence for the OSCCON
high byte by writing 78h and 9Ah to
OSCCON<15:8> in two back-to-back instructions.
3. Write new oscillator source to the NOSCx bits in
the instruction immediately following the unlock
sequence.
4. Execute the unlock sequence for the OSCCON
low byte by writing 46h and 57h to
OSCCON<7:0> in two back-to-back instructions.
5. Set the OSWEN bit in the instruction immediately
following the unlock sequence.
6. Continue to execute code that is not
clock-sensitive (optional).
7. Invoke an appropriate amount of software delay
(cycle counting) to allow the selected oscillator
and/or PLL to start and stabilize.
8. Check to see if OSWEN is ‘0’. If it is, the switch
was successful. If OSWEN is still set, then check
the LOCK bit to determine the cause of failure.
The core sequence for unlocking the OSCCON register
and initiating a clock switch is provided in Example 8-1.
EXAMPLE 8-1: BASIC CODE SEQUENCE
FOR CLOCK SWITCHING
8.5 Reference Clock Output
In addition to the CLKO output (FOSC/2) available in
certain oscillator modes, the device clock in the
PIC24F04KA201 family devices can also be configured
to provide a reference clock output signal to a port pin.
This feature is available in all oscillator configurations
and allows the user to select a greater range of clock
submultiples to drive external devices in the
application.
This reference clock output is controlled by the
REFOCON register (Register 8-4). Setting the ROEN
bit (REFOCON<15>) makes the clock signal available
on the REFO pin. The RODIV bits (REFOCON<11:8>)
enable the selection of 16 different clock divider
options.
The ROSSLP and ROSEL bits (REFOCON<13:12>)
control the availability of the reference output during
Sleep mode. The ROSEL bit determines if the oscillator
on OSC1 and OSC2, or the current system clock
source, is used for the reference clock output. The
ROSSLP bit determines if the reference source is
available on REFO when the device is in Sleep mode.
To use the reference clock output in Sleep mode, both
the ROSSLP and ROSEL bits must be set. The device
clock must also be configured for one of the primary
modes (EC, HS or XT); otherwise, if the ROSEL bit is
not also set, the oscillator on OSC1 and OSC2 will be
powered down when the device enters Sleep mode.
Clearing the ROSEL bit allows the reference output
frequency to change as the system clock changes
during any clock switches.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
9.0 POWER-SAVING FEATURES
The PIC24F04KA201 family of devices provides the
ability to manage power consumption by selectively
managing clocking to the CPU and the peripherals. In
general, a lower clock frequency and a reduction in the
number of circuits being clocked constitutes lower
consumed power. All PIC24F devices manage power
consumption in four different ways:
Clock frequency
Instruction-based Sleep, Idle and Deep Sleep
modes
Software controlled Doze mode
Selective peripheral control in software
Combinations of these methods can be used to
selectively tailor an application’s power consumption,
while still maintaining critical application features, such
as timing-sensitive communications.
9.1 Clock Frequency and Clock
Switching
PIC24F devices allow for a wide range of clock
frequencies to be selected under application control. If
the system clock configuration is not locked, users can
choose low-power or high-precision oscillators by simply
changing the NOSC bits. The process of changing a
system clock during operation, as well as limitations to
the process, are discussed in more detail in Section 8.0
“Oscillator Configuration”.
9.2 Instruction-Based Power-Saving
Modes
PIC24F devices have two special power-saving modes
that are entered through the execution of a special
PWRSAV instruction. Sleep mode stops clock operation
and halts all code execution; Idle mode halts the CPU
and code execution, but allows peripheral modules to
continue operation. Deep Sleep mode stops clock
operation, code execution and all peripherals except
DSWDT. It also freezes I/O states and removes power
to SRAM and Flash memory.
The assembly syntax of the PWRSAV instruction is
shown in Example 9-1.
Sleep and Idle modes can be exited as a result of an
enabled interrupt, WDT time-out or a device Reset.
When the device exits these modes, it is said to
“wake-up”.
9.2.1 SLEEP MODE
Sleep mode has these features:
The system clock source is shut down. If an
on-chip oscillator is used, it is turned off.
The device current consumption will be reduced
to a minimum provided that no I/O pin is sourcing
current.
The I/O pin directions and states are frozen.
The Fail-Safe Clock Monitor does not operate
during Sleep mode since the system clock source
is disabled.
The LPRC clock will continue to run in Sleep
mode if the WDT with LPRC as a clock source is
enabled.
The WDT, if enabled, is automatically cleared
prior to entering Sleep mode.
Some device features or peripherals may
continue to operate in Sleep mode. This includes
items such as the input change notification on the
I/O ports, or peripherals that use an external clock
input. Any peripheral that requires the system
clock source for its operation will be disabled in
Sleep mode.
The device will wake-up from Sleep mode on any of
these events:
On any interrupt source that is individually
enabled
On any form of device Reset
On a WDT time-out
On wake-up from Sleep, the processor will restart with
the same clock source that was active when Sleep
mode was entered.

9.2.2 IDLE MODE
Idle mode has these features:
The CPU will stop executing instructions.
The WDT is automatically cleared.
The system clock source remains active. By
default, all peripheral modules continue to operate
normally from the system clock source, but can
also be selectively disabled (see Section 9.4
“Selective Peripheral Module Control”).
If the WDT or FSCM is enabled, the LPRC will
also remain active.
The device will wake from Idle mode on any of these
events:
Any interrupt that is individually enabled
Any device Reset
A WDT time-out
On wake-up from Idle, the clock is reapplied to the CPU
and instruction execution begins immediately, starting
with the instruction following the PWRSAV instruction or
the first instruction in the ISR.
9.2.3 INTERRUPTS COINCIDENT WITH
POWER SAVE INSTRUCTIONS
Any interrupt that coincides with the execution of a
PWRSAV instruction will be held off until entry into Sleep
or Idle mode has completed. The device will then
wake-up from Sleep or Idle mode.
9.2.4 DEEP SLEEP MODE
In PIC24F04KA201 family devices, Deep Sleep mode
is intended to provide the lowest levels of power
consumption available, without requiring the use of
external switches to completely remove all power from
the device. Entry into Deep Sleep mode is completely
under software control. Exit from Deep Sleep mode can
be triggered from any of the following events:
POR event
•MCLR
event
External Interrupt 0
Deep Sleep Watchdog Timer (DSWDT) time-out
The device has a dedicated Deep Sleep Brown-out
Reset (DSBOR) and a Deep Sleep Watchdog Timer
Reset (DSWDT) for monitoring voltage and time-out
events. The DSBOR and DSWDT are independent of
the standard BOR and WDT used with other
power-managed modes (Sleep, Idle and Doze).
9.2.4.1 Entering Deep Sleep Mode
Deep Sleep mode is entered by setting the DSEN bit in
the DSCON register, and then executing a SLEEP
instruction (PWRSAV #SLEEP_MODE) within one instruc-
tion cycle to minimize the chance that Deep Sleep will
be spuriously entered.
If the PWRSAV command is not given within one instruc-
tion cycle, the DSEN bit will be cleared by the hardware
and must be set again by the software before entering
Deep Sleep mode. The DSEN bit is also automatically
cleared when exiting the Deep Sleep mode.
The sequence to enter Deep Sleep mode is:
1. If the application requires the Deep Sleep WDT,
enable it and configure its clock source (see
Section 9.2.4.5 “Deep Sleep WDT for
details).
2. If the application requires Deep Sleep BOR,
enable it by programming the DSBOREN
Configuration bit (FDS<6>).
3. If needed, save any critical application context
data by writing it to the DSGPR0 and DSGPR1
registers (optional).
4. Enable Deep Sleep mode by setting the DSEN
bit (DSCON<15>).
5. Enter Deep Sleep mode by issuing 3 NOP
commands and then a PWRSAV #0 instruction.
Any time the DSEN bit is set, all bits in the DSWSRC
register will be automatically cleared.
9.2.4.2 Exiting Deep Sleep Mode
Deep Sleep mode exits on any one of the following events:
POR event on VDD supply. If there is no DSBOR
circuit to re-arm the VDD supply POR circuit, the
external VDD supply must be lowered to the
natural arming voltage of the POR circuit.
DSWDT time-out. When the DSWDT timer times
out, the device exits Deep Sleep.
Assertion (0’) of the MCLR pin.
Assertion of the INT0 pin (if the interrupt was
enabled before Deep Sleep mode was entered).
The polarity configuration is used to determine the
assertion level (‘0’ or ‘1’) of the pin that will cause
an exit from Deep Sleep mode. Exiting from Deep
Sleep mode requires a change on the INT0 pin
while in Deep Sleep mode.
Note: To re-enter Deep Sleep after a Deep Sleep
wake-up, allow a delay of at least 3 T
CY
after clearing the RELEASE bit.
© 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS39937B-page 93
PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
Exiting Deep Sleep mode generally does not retain the
state of the device and is equivalent to a Power-on
Reset (POR) of the device. Exceptions to this include
the DSGPRx registers and DSWSRC.
Wake-up events that occur from the time Deep Sleep
exits until the time the POR sequence completes are
ignored, and are not be captured in the DSWAKE
register.
The sequence for exiting Deep Sleep mode is:
1. After a wake-up event, the device exits Deep
Sleep and performs a POR. The DSEN bit is
cleared automatically. Code execution resumes
at the Reset vector.
2. To determine if the device exited Deep Sleep,
read the Deep Sleep bit, DPSLP (RCON<10>).
This bit will be set if there was an exit from Deep
Sleep mode. If the bit is set, clear it.
3. Determine the wake-up source by reading the
DSWAKE register.
4. Determine if a DSBOR event occurred during
Deep Sleep mode by reading the DSBOR bit
(DSCON<1>).
5. If application context data has been saved, read
it back from the DSGPR0 and DSGPR1
registers.
6. Clear the RELEASE bit (DSCON<0>).
9.2.4.3 Saving Context Data with the
DSGPR0/DSGPR1 Registers
As exiting Deep Sleep mode causes a POR, most
Special Function Registers reset to their default POR
values. In addition, because VDDCORE power is not
supplied in Deep Sleep mode, information in data RAM
may be lost when exiting this mode.
Applications which require critical data to be saved
prior to Deep Sleep may use the Deep Sleep General
Purpose registers, DSGPR0 and DSGPR1, or data
EEPROM (if available). Unlike other SFRs, the con-
tents of these registers are preserved while the device
is in Deep Sleep mode. After exiting Deep Sleep,
software can restore the data by reading the registers
and clearing the RELEASE bit (DSCON<0>).
9.2.4.4 I/O Pins During Deep Sleep
During Deep Sleep, the general purpose I/O pins retain
their previous states and the Secondary Oscillator
(SOSC) will remain running, if enabled. Pins that are
configured as inputs (TRIS bit set) prior to entry into
Deep Sleep remain high-impedance during Deep
Sleep. Pins that are configured as outputs (TRIS bit
clear) prior to entry into Deep Sleep remain as output
pins during Deep Sleep. While in this mode, they con-
tinue to drive the output level determined by their
corresponding LAT bit at the time of entry into Deep
Sleep.
Once the device wakes back up, all I/O pins continue to
maintain their previous states, even after the device
has finished the POR sequence and is executing appli-
cation code again. Pins configured as inputs during
Deep Sleep remain high-impedance and pins config-
ured as outputs continue to drive their previous value.
After waking up, the TRIS and LAT registers, and the
SOSCEN bit (OSCCON<1>) are reset. If firmware
modifies any of these bits or registers, the I/O will not
immediately go to the newly configured states. Once
the firmware clears the RELEASE bit (DSCON<0>) the
I/O pins are “released”. This causes the I/O pins to take
the states configured by their respective TRIS and LAT
bit values.
This means that keeping the SOSC running after
waking up requires the SOSCEN bit to be set before
clearing RELEASE.
If the Deep Sleep BOR (DSBOR) is enabled, and a
DSBOR or a true POR event occurs during Deep
Sleep, the I/O pins will be immediately released similar
to clearing the RELEASE bit. All previous state infor-
mation will be lost, including the general purpose
DSGPR0 and DSGPR1 contents.
If a MCLR Reset event occurs during Deep Sleep, the
DSGPRx, DSCON and DSWAKE registers will remain
valid and the RELEASE bit will remain set. The state of
the SOSC also will be retained. The I/O pins, however,
will be reset to their MCLR Reset state. Since
RELEASE is still set, changes to the SOSCEN bit
(OSCCON<1>) cannot take effect until the RELEASE
bit is cleared.
In all other Deep Sleep wake-up cases, application
firmware must clear the RELEASE bit in order to
reconfigure the I/O pins.
Note: Any interrupt pending when entering Deep
Sleep mode is cleared,
PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
DS39937B-page 94 Preliminary © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.
9.2.4.5 Deep Sleep WDT
To enable the DSWDT in Deep Sleep mode, program
the Configuration bit, DSWDTEN (FDS<7>). The
device Watchdog Timer (WDT) need not be enabled for
the DSWDT to function. Entry into Deep Sleep mode
automatically resets the DSWDT.
The DSWDT clock source is selected by the
DSWDTOSC Configuration bit (FDS<4>). The
postscaler options are programmed by the
DSWDTPS<3:0> Configuration bits (FDS<3:0>). The
minimum time-out period that can be achieved is
2.1 ms and the maximum is 25.7 days. For more
details on the FDS Configuration register and DSWDT
configuration options, refer to Section 23.0 “Special
Features”.
9.2.4.6 Switching Clocks in Deep Sleep Mode
The DSWDT may run from either SOSC or the LPRC
clock source. This allows the DSWDT to run without
requiring both the LPRC and SOSC to be enabled
together, reducing power consumption.
Under certain circumstances, it is possible for the
DSWDT clock source to be off when entering Deep
Sleep mode. In this case, the clock source is turned on
automatically (if DSWDT is enabled), without the need
for software intervention. However, this can cause a
delay in the start of the DSWDT counters. In order to
avoid this delay when using SOSC as a clock source,
the application can activate SOSC prior to entering
Deep Sleep mode.
9.2.4.7 Checking and Clearing the Status of
Deep Sleep
Upon entry into Deep Sleep mode, the status bit,
DPSLP (RCON<10>), becomes set and must be
cleared by the software.
On power-up, the software should read this status bit to
determine if the Reset was due to an exit from Deep
Sleep mode and clear the bit if it is set. Of the four
possible combinations of DPSLP and POR bit states,
three cases can be considered:
Both the DPSLP and POR bits are cleared. In this
case, the Reset was due to some event other
than a Deep Sleep mode exit.
The DPSLP bit is clear, but the POR bit is set.
This is a normal POR.
Both the DPSLP and POR bits are set. This
means that Deep Sleep mode was entered, the
device was powered down and Deep Sleep mode
was exited.
9.2.4.8 Power-on Resets (PORs)
VDD voltage is monitored to produce PORs. Since exit-
ing from Deep Sleep functionally looks like a POR, the
technique described in Section 9.2.4.7 “Checking
and Clearing the Status of Deep Sleep” should be
used to distinguish between Deep Sleep and a true
POR event.
When a true POR occurs, the entire device including
all Deep Sleep logic, (Deep Sleep registers, DSWDT,
etc.) is reset.
9.2.4.9 Summary of Deep Sleep Sequence
To review, these are the necessary steps involved in
invoking and exiting Deep Sleep mode:
1. Device exits Reset and begins to execute its
application code.
2. If DSWDT functionality is required, program the
appropriate Configuration bit.
3. Select the appropriate clock(s) for the DSWDT
(optional).
4. Enable and configure the DSWDT (optional).
5. Write context data to the DSGPRx registers
(optional).
6. Enable the INT0 interrupt (optional).
7. Set the DSEN bit in the DSCON register.
8. Enter Deep Sleep by issuing a PWRSV
#SLEEP_MODE command.
9. Device exits Deep Sleep when a wake-up event
occurs.
10. The DSEN bit is automatically cleared.
11. Read and clear the DPSLP status bit in RCON,
and the DSWAKE status bits.
12. Read the DSGPRx registers (optional).
13. Once all state related configurations are
complete, clear the RELEASE bit.
14. Application resumes normal operation.

9.2.5 INTERRUPTS COINCIDENT WITH
POWER SAVE INSTRUCTIONS
Any interrupt that coincides with the execution of a
PWRSAV instruction will be held off until entry into Sleep
or Idle mode is completed. The device will then
wake-up from Sleep or Idle mode.
9.3 Doze Mode
Generally, changing clock speed and invoking one of
the power-saving modes are the preferred strategies
for reducing power consumption. There may be
circumstances, however, where this is not practical. For
example, it may be necessary for an application to
maintain uninterrupted synchronous communication,
even while it is doing nothing else. Reducing system
clock speed may introduce communication errors,
while using a power-saving mode may stop
communications completely.
Doze mode is a simple and effective alternative method
to reduce power consumption while the device is still
executing code. In this mode, the system clock
continues to operate from the same source and at the
same speed. Peripheral modules continue to be
clocked at the same speed while the CPU clock speed
is reduced. Synchronization between the two clock
domains is maintained, allowing the peripherals to
access the SFRs while the CPU executes code at a
slower rate.
Doze mode is enabled by setting the DOZEN bit
(CLKDIV<11>). The ratio between peripheral and core
clock speed is determined by the DOZE<2:0> bits
(CLKDIV<14:12>). There are eight possible
configurations, from 1:1 to 1:128, with 1:1 being the
default.
It is also possible to use Doze mode to selectively reduce
power consumption in event driven applications. This
allows clock-sensitive functions, such as synchronous
communications, to continue without interruption while
the CPU Idles, waiting for something to invoke an
interrupt routine. Enabling the automatic return to
full-speed CPU operation on interrupts is enabled by set-
ting the ROI bit (CLKDIV<15>). By default, interrupt
events have no effect on Doze mode operation.
9.4 Selective Peri pheral Module
Control
Idle and Doze modes allow users to substantially
reduce power consumption by slowing or stopping the
CPU clock. Even so, peripheral modules still remain
clocked, and thus, consume power. There may be
cases where the application needs what these modes
do not provide: the allocation of power resources to
CPU processing with minimal power consumption from
the peripherals.
PIC24F devices address this requirement by allowing
peripheral modules to be selectively disabled, reducing
or eliminating their power consumption. This can be
done with two control bits:
The Peripheral Enable bit, generically named,
“XXXEN”, located in the module’s main control
SFR.
The Peripheral Module Disable (PMD) bit,
generically named, “XXXMD”, located in one of
the PMD Control registers.
Both bits have similar functions in enabling or disabling
its associated module. Setting the PMD bit for a module
disables all clock sources to that module, reducing its
power consumption to an absolute minimum. In this
state, the control and status registers associated with
the peripheral will also be disabled, so writes to those
registers will have no effect and read values will be
invalid. Many peripheral modules have a corresponding
PMD bit.
In contrast, disabling a module by clearing its XXXEN
bit disables its functionality, but leaves its registers
available to be read and written to. Power consumption
is reduced, but not by as much as the PMD bits are
used. Most peripheral modules have an enable bit;
exceptions include capture and compare modules.
To achieve more selective power savings, peripheral
modules can also be selectively disabled when the
device enters Idle mode. This is done through the control
bit of the generic name format, “XXXIDL”. By default, all
modules that can operate during Idle mode will do so.
Using the disable on Idle feature disables the module
while in Idle mode, allowing further reduction of power
consumption during Idle mode, enhancing power
savings for extremely critical power applications.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
10.0 I/O PORTS
All of the device pins (except VDD and VSS) are shared
between the peripherals and the parallel I/O ports. All
I/O input ports feature Schmitt Trigger inputs for
improved noise immunity.
10.1 Parallel I/O (PIO) Ports
A parallel I/O port that shares a pin with a peripheral is,
in general, subservient to the peripheral. The
peripheral’s output buffer data and control signals are
provided to a pair of multiplexers. The multiplexers
select whether the peripheral or the associated port
has ownership of the output data and control signals of
the I/O pin. The logic also prevents “loop through”, in
which a port’s digital output can drive the input of a
peripheral that shares the same pin. Figure 10-1
displays how ports are shared with other peripherals
and the associated I/O pin to which they are connected.
When a peripheral is enabled and the peripheral is
actively driving an associated pin, the use of the pin as
a general purpose output pin is disabled. The I/O pin
may be read, but the output driver for the parallel port
bit will be disabled. If a peripheral is enabled, but the
peripheral is not actively driving a pin, that pin may be
driven by a port.
All port pins have three registers directly associated
with their operation as digital I/O. The Data Direction
register (TRISx) determines whether the pin is an input
or an output. If the data direction bit is a ‘1’, then the pin
is an input. All port pins are defined as inputs after a
Reset. Reads from the Data Latch register (LATx), read
the latch. Writes to the latch, write the latch. Reads
from the port (PORTx), read the port pins, while writes
to the port pins, write the latch.
Any bit and its associated data and control registers
that are not valid for a particular device will be
disabled. That means the corresponding LATx and
TRISx registers and the port pin will read as zeros.
When a pin is shared with another peripheral or
function that is defined as an input only, it is
nevertheless regarded as a dedicated port because
there is no other competing source of outputs.

this group of PIC24F devices. It is not
intended to be a comprehensive reference

Ports, refer to the “PIC24F Family Refer-
ence Manual” , Section 12. “I/O Por ts with
Peripheral Pin Select (PP S)” (DS39711).
Note that the PIC24F04KA201 family
devices do not support Peripheral Pin
Select features.
Note: The I/O pins retain their state during Deep
Sleep. They will retain this state at
wake-up until the software restore bit
(RELEASE) is cleared.

10.1.1 OPEN-DRAIN CONFIGURATION
In addition to the PORT, LAT and TRIS registers for
data control, each port pin can also be individually
configured for either digital or open-drain output. This is
controlled by the Open-Drain Control register, ODCx,
associated with each port. Setting any of the bits
configures the corresponding pin to act as an
open-drain output.
The maximum open-drain voltage allowed is the same
as the maximum VIH specification.
10.2 Configuring Analog Port Pins
The use of the AD1PCFG and TRIS registers control
the operation of the A/D port pins. The port pins that are
desired as analog inputs must have their
corresponding TRIS bit set (input). If the TRIS bit is
cleared (output), the digital output level (VOH or VOL)
will be converted.
When reading the PORT register, all pins configured as
analog input channels will read as cleared (a low level).
Analog levels on any pin that is defined as a digital
input (including the ANx pins) may cause the input
buffer to consume current that exceeds the device
specifications.
10.2.1 I/O PORT WRITE/READ TIMING
One instruction cycle is required between a port
direction change or port write operation and a read
operation of the same port. Typically, this instruction
would be a NOP.
10.3 Input Change Notification
The input change notification function of the I/O ports
allows the PIC24F04KA201 family of devices to
generate interrupt requests to the processor in
response to a change of state on selected input pins.
This feature is capable of detecting input change of
states even in Sleep mode, when the clocks are
disabled. Depending on the device pin count, there are
up to 17 external signals (11 on 14-pin devices) that
may be selected (enabled) for generating an interrupt
request on a change of state.
There are six control registers associated with the CN
module. The CNEN1 and CNEN2 registers contain the
interrupt enable control bits for each of the CN input
pins. Setting any of these bits enables a CN interrupt
for the corresponding pins.
Each CN pin also has a weak pull-up/pull-down
connected to it. The pull-ups act as a current source
that is connected to the pin and the pull-downs act as a
current sink to eliminate the need for external resistors
when push button or keypad devices are connected.
On any pin, only the pull-up resistor or the pull-down
resistor should be enabled, but not both of them. If the
push button or the keypad is connected to VDD, enable
the pull-down, or if they are connected to VSS, enable
the pull-up resistors. The pull-ups are enabled
separately using the CNPU1 and CNPU2 registers,
which contain the control bits for each of the CN pins.
Setting any of the control bits enables the weak
pull-ups for the corresponding pins. The pull-downs are
enabled separately using the CNPD1 and CNPD2
registers, which contain the control bits for each of the
CN pins. Setting any of the control bits enables the
weak pull-downs for the corresponding pins.
When the internal pull-up is selected, the pin uses VDD
as the pull-up source voltage. When the internal
pull-down is selected, the pins are pulled down to VSS
by an internal resistor. Make sure that there is no
external pull-up source/pull-down sink when the
internal pull-ups/pull-downs are enabled.
EXAMPLE 10-1: PORT WRITE/READ EXAMPLE
Note: Pull-ups and pull-downs on change
notification pins should always be
disabled whenever the port pin is
configured as a digital output.

12.0 TIMER2/3
The Timer2/3 module is a 32-bit timer, which can also be
configured as two independent 16-bit timers with
selectable operating modes.
As a 32-bit timer, Timer2/3 operates in three modes:
Two independent 16-bit timers (Timer2 and
Timer3) with all 16-bit operating modes (except
Asynchronous Counter mode)
Single 32-bit timer
Single 32-bit synchronous counter
They also support these features:
Timer gate operation
Selectable prescaler settings
Timer operation during Idle and Sleep modes
Interrupt on a 32-bit Period register match
ADC Event Trigger
Individually, both of the 16-bit timers can function as
synchronous timers or counters. They also offer the
features listed above, except for the ADC event trigger
(this is implemented only with Timer3). The operating
modes and enabled features are determined by setting
the appropriate bit(s) in the T2CON and T3CON
registers. T2CON and T3CON are provided in generic
form in Register 12-1 and Register 12-2, respectively.
For 32-bit timer/counter operation, Timer2 is the least
significant word (lsw) and Timer3 is the most significant
word (msw) of the 32-bit timer.
To configure Timer2/3 for 32-bit operation:
1. Set the T32 bit (T2CON<3> = 1).
2. Select the prescaler ratio for Timer2 using the
TCKPS<1:0> bits.
3. Set the Clock and Gating modes using the TCS
and TGATE bits.
4. Load the timer period value. PR3 will contain the
msw of the value while PR2 contains the lsw.
5. If interrupts are required, set the interrupt enable
bit, T3IE; use the priority bits, T3IP<2:0>, to set
the interrupt priority.
While Timer2 controls the timer, the interrupt
appears as a Timer3 interrupt.
6. Set the TON bit (= 1).
The timer value, at any point, is stored in the register
pair, TMR<3:2>. TMR3 always contains the msw of the
count, while TMR2 contains the lsw.
To configure any of the timers for individual 16-bit
operation:
1. Clear the T32 bit in T2CON<3>.
2. Select the timer prescaler ratio using the
TCKPS<1:0> bits.
3. Set the Clock and Gating modes using the TCS
and TGATE bits.
4. Load the timer period value into the PRx register.
5. If interrupts are required, set the interrupt enable
bit, TxIE; use the priority bits, TxIP<2:0>, to set
the interrupt priority.
6. Set the TON bit (TxCON<15> = 1).
Note: This data sheet summarizes the features
of this group of PIC24F devices. It is not
intended to be a comprehensive reference
source. For more information on Timers,
refer to the “PIC24F Family Reference
Manual, Section 14. “Timers”
(DS39704).
Note: For 32-bit operation, T3CON control bits
are ignored. Only T2CON control bits are
used for setup and control. Timer2 clock
and gate inputs are utilized for the 32-bit
timer modules, but an interrupt is generated
with the Timer3 interrupt flags.

13.0 INPUT CAPTURE
The input capture module is used to capture a timer
value from one of two selectable time bases upon an
event on an input pin.
The input capture features are quite useful in
applications requiring frequency (Time Period) and
pulse measurement. Figure 13-1 depicts a simplified
block diagram of the input capture module.
The PIC24F04KA201 family devices have one input
capture channel. The input capture module has
multiple operating modes, which are selected via the
IC1CON register. The operating modes include:
Capture timer value on every falling edge of input
applied at the IC1 pin
Capture timer value on every rising edge of input
applied at the IC1 pin
Capture timer value on every 4th rising edge of
input applied at the IC1 pin
Capture timer value on every 16th rising edge of
input applied at the IC1 pin
Capture timer value on every rising and every
falling edge of input applied at the IC1 pin
Device wake-up from capture pin during CPU
Sleep and Idle modes
The input capture module has a four-level FIFO buffer.
The number of capture events required to generate a
CPU interrupt can be selected by the user.

14.0 OUTPUT COMPARE
14.1 Setup for Single Ou tput Pulse
Generation
When the OCM control bits (OC1CON<2:0>) are set to
100’, the selected output compare channel initializes
the OC1 pin to the low state and generates a single
output pulse.
To generate a single output pulse, the following steps
are required (these steps assume the timer source is
initially turned off, but this is not a requirement for the
module operation):
1. Determine the instruction clock cycle time. Take
into account the frequency of the external clock
to the timer source (if one is used) and the timer
prescaler settings.
2. Calculate time to the rising edge of the output
pulse relative to the TMRy start value (0000h).
3. Calculate the time to the falling edge of the pulse
based on the desired pulse width and the time to
the rising edge of the pulse.
4. Write the values computed in steps 2 and 3
above into the Output Compare 1 register,
OC1R, and the Output Compare 1 Secondary
register, OC1RS, respectively.
5. Set Timer Period register, PRy, to value equal to
or greater than the value in OC1RS, the Output
Compare 1 Secondary register.
6. Set the OCM bits to ‘100 and the OCTSEL
(OC1CON<3>) bit to the desired timer source.
The OC1 pin state will now be driven low.
7. Set the TON (TyCON<15>) bit to ‘1’, which
enables the compare time base to count.
8. Upon the first match between TMRy and OC1R,
the OC1 pin will be driven high.
9. When the incrementing timer, TMRy, matches
the Output Compare 1 Secondary register,
OC1RS, the second and trailing edge
(high-to-low) of the pulse is driven onto the OC1
pin. No additional pulses are driven onto the
OC1 pin and it remains low. As a result of the
second compare match event, the OC1IF inter-
rupt flag bit is set, which will result in an interrupt
if it is enabled, by setting the OC1IE bit. For
further information on peripheral interrupts, refer
to Section 7.0 “Interrupt Controller”.
10. To initiate another single pulse output, change
the Timer and Compare register settings, if
needed, and then issue a write to set the OCM
bits to ‘100’. Disabling and re-enabling of the
timer and clearing the TMRy register are not
required, but may be advantageous for defining
a pulse from a known event time boundary.
The output compare module does not have to be
disabled after the falling edge of the output pulse.
Another pulse can be initiated by rewriting the value of
the OC1CON register.
14.2 Setup for Continuous Output
Pulse Generation
When the OCM control bits (OC1CON<2:0>) are set to
101’, the selected output compare channel initializes
the OC1 pin to the low state and generates output
pulses on each and every compare match event.
For the user to configure the module for the generation
of a continuous stream of output pulses, the following
steps are required (these steps assume the timer
source is initially turned off, but this is not a requirement
for the module operation):
1. Determine the instruction clock cycle time. Take
into account the frequency of the external clock
to the timer source (if one is used) and the timer
prescaler settings.
2. Calculate time to the rising edge of the output
pulse relative to the TMRy start value (0000h).
3. Calculate the time to the falling edge of the pulse
based on the desired pulse width and the time to
the rising edge of the pulse.
4. Write the values computed in step 2 and 3 above
into the Output Compare 1 register, OC1R, and the
Output Compare 1 Secondary register, OC1RS,
respectively.
5. Set the Timer Period register, PRy, to a value
equal to or greater than the value in OC1RS.
6. Set the OCM bits to ‘101’ and the OCTSEL bit to
the desired timer source. The OC1 pin state will
now be driven low.
7. Enable the compare time base by setting the
TON (TyCON<15>) bit to ‘1’.
8. Upon the first match between TMRy and OC1R,
the OC1 pin will be driven high.
9. When the compare time base, TMRy, matches the
OC1RS, the second and trailing edge (high-to-low)
of the pulse is driven onto the OC1 pin.
10. As a result of the second compare match event,
the OC1IF interrupt flag bit is set.
11. When the compare time base and the value in its
respective Timer Period register match, the TMRy
register resets to 0x0000 and resumes counting.
12. Steps 8 through 11 are repeated and a con-
tinuous stream of pulses is generated
indefinitely. The OC1IF flag is set on each
OC1RS/TMRy compare match event.

of this group of PIC24F devices. It is not

14.3 Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM)
Mode
The following steps should be taken when configuring
the output compare module for PWM operation:
1. Set the PWM period by writing to the selected
Timer Period register (PRy).
2. Set the PWM duty cycle by writing to the OC1RS
register.
3. Write the OC1R register with the initial duty
cycle.
4. Enable interrupts, if required, for the timer and
output compare modules. The output compare
interrupt is required for PWM Fault pin
utilization.
5. Configure the output compare module for one of
two PWM Operation modes by writing to the
Output Compare Mode bits, OCM<2:0>
(OC1CON<2:0>).
6. Set the TMRy prescale value and enable the
time base by setting TON (TxCON<15>) = 1.
14.3.1 PWM PERIOD
The PWM period is specified by writing to PRy, the
Timer Period register. The PWM period can be
calculated using Equation 14-1.
EQUATION 14-1: CALCULATING THE PWM
PERIOD(1)
14.3.2 PWM DUTY CYCLE
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing to the
OC1RS register. The OC1RS register can be written to
at any time, but the duty cycle value is not latched into
OC1R until a match between PRy and TMRy occurs
(i.e., the period is complete). This provides a double
buffer for the PWM duty cycle and is essential for
glitchless PWM operation. In PWM mode, OC1R is a
read-only register.
Some important boundary parameters of the PWM duty
cycle include:
If the Output Compare 1 register, OC1R, is loaded
with 0000h, the OC1 pin will remain low (0% duty
cycle).
If OC1R is greater than PRy (Timer Period
register), the pin will remain high (100% duty
cycle).
If OC1R is equal to PRy, the OC1 pin will be low
for one time base count value and high for all
other count values.
See Example 14-1 for PWM mode timing details.
Table 14-1 provides an example of PWM frequencies
and resolutions for a device operating at 10 MIPS.
EQUATION 14-2: CALCULATION FOR MAXIMUM PWM RESOLUTION(1)
Note: The OC1R register should be initialized
before the output compare module is first
enabled. The OC1R register becomes a
read-only Duty Cycle register when the
module is operated in the PWM modes.
The value held in OC1R will become the
PWM duty cycle for the first PWM period.
The contents of the Output Compare 1
Secondary register, OC1RS, will not be
transferred into OC1R until a time base
period match occurs.
Note: A PRy value of N will produce a PWM
period of N + 1 time base count cycles. For
example, a value of 7 written into the PRy
register will yield a period consisting of
8 time base cycles.

15.0 SERIAL P ERIPHERAL
INTERFACE (SPI)
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) module is a
synchronous serial interface useful for communicating
with other peripheral or microcontroller devices. These
peripheral devices may be serial data EEPROMs, shift
registers, display drivers, A/D Converters, etc. The SPI
module is compatible with Motorola’s SPI and SIOP
interfaces.
The module supports operation in two buffer modes. In
Standard mode, data is shifted through a single serial
buffer. In Enhanced Buffer mode, data is shifted
through an 8-level FIFO buffer.
The module also supports a basic framed SPI protocol
while operating in either Master or Slave mode. A total
of four framed SPI configurations are supported.
The SPI serial interface consists of four pins:
SDI1: Serial Data Input
SDO1: Serial Data Output
SCK1: Shift Clock Input or Output
SS1: Active-Low Slave Select or Frame
Synchronization I/O Pulse
The SPI module can be configured to operate using 2,
3 or 4 pins. In the 3-pin mode, SS1 is not used. In the
2-pin mode, both SDO1 and SS1 are not used.
Block diagrams of the module in Standard and
Enhanced Buffer modes are displayed in Figure 15-1
and Figure 15-2.
The devices of the PIC24F04KA201 family offer one
SPI module on a device.
To set up the SPI module for the Standard Master mode
of operation:
1. If using interrupts:
a) Clear the respective SPI1IF bit in the IFS0
register.
b) Set the respective SPI1IE bit in the IEC0
register.
c) Write the respective SPI1IPx bits in the
IPC2 register to set the interrupt priority.
2. Write the desired settings to the SPI1CON1 and
SPI1CON2 registers with the MSTEN bit
(SPI1CON1<5>) = 1.
3. Clear the SPIROV bit (SPI1STAT<6>).
4. Enable SPI operation by setting the SPIEN bit
(SPI1STAT<15>).
5. Write the data to be transmitted to the SPI1BUF
register. Transmission (and reception) will start
as soon as data is written to the SPI1BUF
register.
To set up the SPI module for the Standard Slave mode
of operation:
1. Clear the SPI1BUF register.
2. If using interrupts:
a) Clear the respective SPI1IF bit in the IFS0
register.
b) Set the respective SPI1IE bit in the IEC0
register.
c) Write the respective SPI1IP bits in the IPC2
register to set the interrupt priority.
3. Write the desired settings to the SPI1CON1
and SPI1CON2 registers with the MSTEN bit
(SPI1CON1<5>) = 0.
4. Clear the SMP bit.
5. If the CKE bit is set, then the SSEN bit
(SPI1CON1<7>) must be set to enable the SS1
pin.
6. Clear the SPIROV bit (SPI1STAT<6>).
7. Enable SPI operation by setting the SPIEN bit
(SPI1STAT<15>).
Note: This data sheet summarizes the features of
this group of PIC24F devices. It is not
intended to be a comprehensive reference
source. For more information on the Serial
Peripheral Interface, refer to the “PIC24F
Family Reference Manual”, Section 23.
“Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)”
(DS39699).
Note: Do not perform read-modify-write operations
(such as bit-oriented instructions) on the
SPI1BUF register in either Standard or
Enhanced Buffer mode.
Note: In this section, the SPI module is referred
to as SPI1, or separately as SPI1. Special
Function Registers (SFRs) will follow a
similar notation. For example, SPI1CON1
or SPI1CON2 refers to the control register
for the SPI1 module.

16.0 INTER-INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
(I2C™)
The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C™) module is a serial
interface useful for communicating with other
peripheral or microcontroller devices. These peripheral
devices may be serial data EEPROMs, display drivers,
A/D Converters, etc.
The I2C module supports these features:
Independent master and slave logic
7-bit and 10-bit device addresses
General call address, as defined in the
I2C
protocol
Clock stretching to provide delays for the
processor to respond to a slave data request
Both 100 kHz and 400 kHz bus specifications
Configurable address masking
Multi-Master modes to prevent loss of messages
in arbitration
Bus Repeater mode, allowing the acceptance of
all messages as a slave regardless of the address
Automatic SCL
Figure 16-1 illustrates a block diagram of the module.
16.1 Pin Remapping Options
The I2C module is tied to a fixed pin. To allow flexibility
with peripheral multiplexing, the I2C1 module in 20-pin
devices can be reassigned to the alternate pins,
designated as SCL1 and SDA1 during device
configuration.
Pin assignment is controlled by the I2C1SEL
Configuration bit. Programming this bit (= 0) multiplexes
the module to the SCL1 and SDA1 pins.
16.2 Communicating as a Master in a
Single Master Environ ment
The details of sending a message in Master mode
depends on the communications protocol for the device
being communicated with. Typically, the sequence of
events is as follows:
1. Assert a Start condition on SDA1 and SCL1.
2. Send the I2C device address byte to the slave
with a write indication.
3. Wait for and verify an Acknowledge from the
slave.
4. Send the first data byte (sometimes known as
the command) to the slave.
5. Wait for and verify an Acknowledge from the
slave.
6. Send the serial memory address low byte to the
slave.
7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all data bytes are
sent.
8. Assert a Repeated Start condition on SDA1 and
SCL1.
9. Send the device address byte to the slave with
a read indication.
10. Wait for and verify an Acknowledge from the
slave.
11. Enable master reception to receive serial
memory data.
12. Generate an ACK or NACK condition at the end
of a received byte of data.
13. Generate a Stop condition on SDA1 and SCL1.
Note: This data sheet summarizes the features
of this group of PIC24F devices. It is not
intended to be a comprehensive reference
source. For more information on the
Inter-Integrated Circuit, refer to the

To compute the Baud Rate Generator (BRG) reload
value, use Equation 16-1.
EQUATION 16-1: COMPUTING BAUD RATE
RELOAD VALUE(1)
16.4 Slave Address Masking
The I2C1MSK register (Register 16-3) designates
address bit positions as “don’t care” for both 7-Bit and
10-Bit Addressing modes. Setting a particular bit
location (= 1) in the I2C1MSK register causes the slave
module to respond whether the corresponding address
bit value is ‘0’ or ‘1. For example, when I2C1MSK is set
to ‘00100000’, the slave module will detect both
addresses: ‘0000000’ and ‘00100000’.
To enable address masking, the Intelligent Peripheral
Management Interface (IPMI) must be disabled by
clearing the IPMIEN bit (I2C1CON<11>).

17.1 UART Baud Rate Generator (BRG)
The UART module includes a dedicated 16-bit Baud
Rate Generator (BRG). The U1BRG register controls
the period of a free-running, 16-bit timer. Equation 17-1
provides the formula for computation of the baud rate
with BRGH = 0.
EQUATION 17-1: UART BAUD RATE WITH
BRGH = 0(1)
Example 17-1 provides the calculation of the baud rate
error for the following conditions:
•F
CY = 4 MHz
Desired Baud Rate = 9600
The maximum baud rate (BRGH = 0) possible is
FCY/16 (for U1BRG = 0) and the minimum baud rate
possible is FCY/(16 * 65536).
Equation 17-2 provides the formula for computation of
the baud rate with BRGH = 1.
EQUATION 17-2: UART BAUD RATE WITH
BRGH = 1(1)
The maximum baud rate (BRGH = 1) possible is FCY/4
(for U1BRG = 0) and the minimum baud rate possible
is FCY/(4 * 65536).
Writing a new value to the U1BRG register causes the
BRG timer to be reset (cleared). This ensures the BRG
does not wait for a timer overflow before generating the
new baud rate.
EXAMPLE 17-1: BAUD RATE ERROR CALCULATION (BRGH = 0)(1)
Note 1: Based on FCY = FOSC/2, Doze mode
and PLL are disabled.
Baud Rate = FCY
16 • (U1BRG + 1)
FCY
16 • Baud Rate
U1BRG = 1
Baud Rate = FCY
4 • (U1BRG + 1)
FCY
4 • Baud Rate
U1BRG = 1
Note 1: Based on FCY = FOSC/2, Doze mode
and PLL are disabled.
Desired Baud Rate = FCY/(16 (U1BRG + 1))
Solving for UxBRG value:
U1BRG = ((FCY/Desired Baud Rate)/16) 1
U1BRG = ((4000000/9600)/16) 1
U1BRG = 25
Calculated Baud Rate = 4000000/(16 (25 + 1))
= 9 615
Error = (Calculated Baud Rate Desired Baud Rate)
Desired Baud Rate
= (9615 9600)/9600

17.2 Transmitting in 8-Bit Data Mode
1. Set up the UART:
a) Write appropriate values for data, parity and
Stop bits.
b) Write appropriate baud rate value to the
U1BRG register.
c) Set up transmit and receive interrupt enable
and priority bits.
2. Enable the UART.
3. Set the UTXEN bit (causes a transmit interrupt
two cycles after being set).
4. Write data byte to lower byte of U1TXREG word.
The value will be immediately transferred to the
Transmit Shift Register (TSR), and the serial bit
stream will start shifting out with the next rising
edge of the baud clock.
5. Alternately, the data byte may be transferred
while UTXEN = 0, and then, the user may set
UTXEN. This will cause the serial bit stream to
begin immediately because the baud clock will
start from a cleared state.
6. A transmit interrupt will be generated as per
interrupt control bit, UTXISEL1.
17.3 Transmitting in 9-Bit Data Mode
1. Set up the UART (as described in Section 17.2
“Transmitting in 8-Bit Data Mode”).
2. Enable the UART.
3. Set the UTXEN bit (causes a transmit interrupt
two cycles after being set).
4. Write U1TXREG as a 16-bit value only.
5. A word write to U1TXREG triggers the transfer
of the 9-bit data to the TSR. The serial bit stream
will start shifting out with the first rising edge of
the baud clock.
6. A transmit interrupt will be generated as per the
setting of control bit, UTXISEL1.
17.4 Break and Sync Tr ansmit
Sequence
The following sequence will send a message frame
header made up of a Break, followed by an auto-baud
Sync byte.
1. Configure the UART for the desired mode.
2. Set UTXEN and UTXBRK – sets up the Break
character.
3. Load the U1TXREG with a dummy character to
initiate transmission (value is ignored).
4. Write ‘55h’ to U1TXREG – loads the Sync
character into the transmit FIFO.
5. After the Break has been sent, the UTXBRK bit
is reset by hardware. The Sync character now
transmits.
17.5 Receiving in 8-Bit or 9-Bit Data
Mode
1. Set up the UART (as described in Section 17.2
“Transmitting in 8-Bit Data Mode”).
2. Enable the UART.
3. A receive interrupt will be generated when one
or more data characters have been received as
per interrupt control bit, URXISEL1.
4. Read the OERR bit to determine if an overrun
error has occurred. The OERR bit must be reset
in software.
5. Read U1RXREG.
The act of reading the UxRXREG character will move
the next character to the top of the receive FIFO,
including a new set of PERR and FERR values.
17.6 Operation of U1CTS and U1RTS
Control Pins
UART1 Clear to Send (U1CTS) and Request to Send
(U1RTS) are the two hardware-controlled pins that are
associated with the UART module. These two pins
allow the UART to operate in Simplex and Flow Control
modes. They are implemented to control the
transmission and reception between the Data Terminal
Equipment (DTE). The UEN<1:0> bits in the U1MODE
register configure these pins.
17.7 Infrared Support
The UART module provides two types of infrared UART
support: one is the IrDA clock output to support an
external IrDA encoder and decoder device (legacy
module support), and the other is the full
implementation of the IrDA encoder and decoder.
As the IrDA modes require a 16x baud clock, they will
only work when the BRGH bit (U1MODE<3>) is ‘0’.
17.7.1 EXTERNAL IrDA SUPPORT – IrDA
CLOCK OUTPUT
To support external IrDA encoder and decoder devices,
the U1BCLK pin (same as the U1RTS pin) can be
configured to generate the 16x baud clock. When
UEN<1:0> = 11, the U1BCLK pin will output the 16x
baud clock if the UART module is enabled; it can be
used to support the IrDA codec chip.
17.7.2 BUILT-IN IrDA ENCODER AND
DECODER
The UART has full implementation of the IrDA encoder
and decoder as part of the UART module. The built-in
IrDA encoder and decoder functionality is enabled
using the IREN bit (U1MODE<12>). When enabled
(IREN = 1), the receive pin (U1RX) acts as the input
from the infrared receiver. The transmit pin (U1TX) acts
as the output to the infrared transmitter.

18.0 HIGH/LOW-VOLTAGE DETECT
(HLVD)
The High/Low-Voltage Detect module (HLVD) is a
programmable circuit that allows the user to specify
both the device voltage trip point and the direction of
change.
An interrupt flag is set if the device experiences an
excursion past the trip point in the direction of change.
If the interrupt is enabled, the program execution will
branch to the interrupt vector address and the software
can then respond to the interrupt.
The HLVD Control register (see Register 18-1)
completely controls the operation of the HLVD module.
This allows the circuitry to be “turned off” by the user
under software control, which minimizes the current
consumption for the device.

a) Configure port pins as analog inputs and/or
select band gap reference inputs
(AD1PCFG<15:13>, AD1PCFG<9:6>).
b) Select voltage reference source to match
expected range on analog inputs
(AD1CON2<15:13>).
c) Select the analog conversion clock to match
the desired data rate with the processor
clock (AD1CON3<7:0>).
d) Select the appropriate sample/conversion
sequence (AD1CON1<7:5> and
AD1CON3<12:8>).
e) Select how conversion results are
presented in the buffer (AD1CON1<9:8>).
f) Select interrupt rate (AD1CON2<5:2>).
g) Turn on A/D module (AD1CON1<15>).
2. Configure A/D interrupt (if required):
a) Clear the AD1IF bit.
b) Select A/D interrupt priority.

Note 1: When the OFFCAL bit is set, inputs are disconnected and tied to AVSS. This sets the inputs of the A/D to
zero. Then, the user can perform a conversion. Use of the Calibration mode is not affected by AD1PCFG
contents nor channel input selection. Any analog input switches are disconnected from the A/D converter
in this mode. The conversion result is stored by the user software and used to compensate subsequent
conversions. This can be done by adding the two’s complement of the result obtained with the OFFCAL bit
set to all normal A/D conversions.

20.0 COMPARATOR MODULE
The comparator module provides two dual input
comparators. The inputs to the comparator can be
configured to use any one of four external analog
inputs, as well as a voltage reference input from either
the internal band gap reference divided by 2 (VBG/2) or
the comparator voltage reference generator.
The comparator outputs may be directly connected to
the CxOUT pins. When the respective COE equals ‘1’,
the I/O pad logic makes the unsynchronized output of
the comparator available on the pin.
A simplified block diagram of the module is displayed in
Figure 20-1. Diagrams of the possible individual
comparator configurations are displayed in
Figure 20-2.
Each comparator has its own control register,
CMxCON (Register 20-1), for enabling and configuring
its operation. The output and event status of all three
comparators is provided in the CMSTAT register
(Register 20-2).

21.0 COMPARATOR VOLTAGE
REFERENCE 21.1 Configuring the Comparator
Voltage Reference
The comparator voltage reference module is controlled
through the CVRCON register (Register 21-1). The
comparator voltage reference provides two ranges of
output voltage, each with 16 distinct levels. The range
to be used is selected by the CVRR bit (CVRCON<5>).
The primary difference between the ranges is the size
of the steps selected by the CVREF Selection bits
(CVR<3:0>), with one range offering finer resolution.
The comparator reference supply voltage can come
from either VDD and VSS, or the external VREF+ and
VREF-. The voltage source is selected by the CVRSS bit
(CVRCON<4>).
The settling time of the comparator voltage reference
must be considered when changing the CVREF output.

22.0 CHARGE TIME
MEA S U R E M ENT UNIT (C T M U)
The Charge Time Measurement Unit (CTMU) is a
flexible analog module that provides charge measure-
ment, accurate differential time measurement between
pulse sources and asynchronous pulse generation. Its
key features include:
Four edge input trigger sources
Polarity control for each edge source
Control of edge sequence
Control of response to edges
Time measurement resolution of one nanosecond
Accurate current source suitable for capacitive
measurement
Together with other on-chip analog modules, the CTMU
can be used to precisely measure time, measure
capacitance, measure relative changes in capacitance,
or generate output pulses that are independent of the
system clock. The CTMU module is ideal for interfacing
with capacitive-based touch sensors.
The CTMU is controlled through two registers,
CTMUCON and CTMUICON. CTMUCON enables the
module, and controls edge source selection, edge
source polarity selection, and edge sequencing. The
CTMUICON register selects the current range of
current source and trims the current.
22.1 Measuring Capacitance
The CTMU module measures capacitance by
generating an output pulse with a width equal to the
time between edge events on two separate input
channels. The pulse edge events to both input
channels can be selected from four sources: two
internal peripheral modules (OC1 and Timer1) and two
external pins (CTEDG1 and CTEDG2). This pulse is
used with the module’s precision current source to
calculate capacitance according to the relationship:
For capacitance measurements, the A/D Converter
samples an external capacitor (CAPP) on one of its
input channels after the CTMU output’s pulse. A
precision resistor (RPR) provides current source
calibration on a second A/D channel. After the pulse
ends, the converter determines the voltage on the
capacitor. The actual calculation of capacitance is
performed in software by the application.
Figure 22-1 displays the external connections used for
capacitance measurements, and how the CTMU and
A/D modules are related in this application. This
example also shows the edge events coming from
Timer1, but other configurations using external edge
sources are possible. A detailed discussion on
measuring capacitance and time with the CTMU
module is provided in the “PIC24F Family Reference
Manual”.

CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENT

this group of PIC24F devices. It is not

22.2 Measuring Time
Time measurements on the pulse width can be similarly
performed using the A/D module’s internal capacitor
(CAD) and a precision resistor for current calibration.
Figure 22-2 displays the external connections used for
time measurements, and how the CTMU and A/D
modules are related in this application. This example
also shows both edge events coming from the external
CTEDG pins, but other configurations using internal
edge sources are possible.
22.3 Pulse Generation and Delay
The CTMU module can also generate an output pulse
with edges that are not synchronous with the device’s
system clock. More specifically, it can generate a pulse
with a programmable delay from an edge event input to
the module.
When the module is configured for pulse generation
delay by setting the TGEN bit (CTMUCON<12>), the
internal current source is connected to the B input of
Comparator 2. A capacitor (CDELAY) is connected to
the Comparator 2 pin, C2INB, and the comparator
voltage reference, CVREF, is connected to C2INA.
CVREF is then configured for a specific trip point. The
module begins to charge CDELAY when an edge event
is detected. When CDELAY charges above the CVREF
trip point, a pulse is output on CTPLS. The length of the
pulse delay is determined by the value of CDELAY and
the CVREF trip point.
Figure 22-3 shows the external connections for pulse
generation, as well as the relationship of the different
analog modules required. While CTEDG1 is shown as
the input pulse source, other options are available. A
detailed discussion on pulse generation with the CTMU
module is provided in the “PIC24F Family Reference
Manual”.

23.1 Configuration Bits
The Configuration bits can be programmed (read as ‘0’),
or left unprogrammed (read as ‘1’), to select various
device configurations. These bits are mapped starting at
program memory location, F80000h. A complete list is
provided in Table 23-1. A detailed explanation of the
various bit functions is provided in Register 23-1 through

23.2 Watchdog Timer (WDT)
For the PIC24F04KA201 family of devices, the WDT is
driven by the LPRC oscillator. When the WDT is
enabled, the clock source is also enabled.
The nominal WDT clock source from LPRC is 31 kHz.
This feeds a prescaler that can be configured for either
5-bit (divide-by-32) or 7-bit (divide-by-128) operation.
The prescaler is set by the FWPSA Configuration bit.
With a 31 kHz input, the prescaler yields a nominal
WDT time-out period (TWDT) of 1 ms in 5-bit mode or
4 ms in 7-bit mode.
A variable postscaler divides down the WDT prescaler
output and allows for a wide range of time-out periods.
The postscaler is controlled by the Configuration bits,
WDTPS<3:0> (FWDT<3:0>), which allow the selection
of a total of 16 settings, from 1:1 to 1:32,768. Using the
prescaler and postscaler, time-out periods ranging from
1 ms to 131 seconds can be achieved.
The WDT, prescaler and postscaler are reset:
On any device Reset
On the completion of a clock switch, whether
invoked by software (i.e., setting the OSWEN bit
after changing the NOSC bits) or by hardware
(i.e., Fail-Safe Clock Monitor)
When a PWRSAV instruction is executed
(i.e., Sleep or Idle mode is entered)
When the device exits Sleep or Idle mode to
resume normal operation
•By a CLRWDT instruction during normal execution
If the WDT is enabled, it will continue to run during
Sleep or Idle modes. When the WDT time-out occurs,
the device will wake the device and code execution will
continue from where the PWRSAV instruction was
executed. The corresponding SLEEP or IDLE bits
(RCON<3:2>) will need to be cleared in software after
the device wakes up.
The WDT Flag bit, WDTO (RCON<4>), is not
automatically cleared following a WDT time-out. To
detect subsequent WDT events, the flag must be
cleared in software.
23.2.1 WINDOWED OPERATION
The Watchdog Timer has an optional Fixed Window
mode of operation. In this Windowed mode, CLRWDT
instructions can only reset the WDT during the last 1/4
of the programmed WDT period. A CLRWDT instruction
executed before that window causes a WDT Reset,
similar to a WDT time-out.
Windowed WDT mode is enabled by programming the
Configuration bit, WINDIS (FWDT<6>), to 0’.
23.2.2 CONTROL REGISTER
The WDT is enabled or disabled by the FWDTEN
Configuration bit. When the FWDTEN Configuration bit
is set, the WDT is always enabled.
The WDT can be optionally controlled in software when
the FWDTEN Configuration bit has been programmed
to ‘0’. The WDT is enabled in software by setting the
SWDTEN control bit (RCON<5>). The SWDTEN
control bit is cleared on any device Reset. The software
WDT option allows the user to enable the WDT for
critical code segments and disable the WDT during
non-critical segments for maximum power savings.

23.3 Deep Sleep Watchdog Timer
(DSWDT)
In PIC24F04KA201 family devices, in addition to the
WDT module, a DSWDT module is present which runs
while the device is in Deep Sleep, if enabled. It is
driven by either the SOSC or LPRC oscillator. The
clock source is selected by the Configuration bit,
DSWCKSEL (FDS<4>).
The DSWDT can be configured to generate a time-out at
2.1 ms to 25.7 days by selecting the respective
postscaler. The postscaler can be selected by the
Configuration bits, DSWDTPS<3:0> (FDS<3:0>). When
the DSWDT is enabled, the clock source is also enabled.
DSWDT is one of the sources that can wake-up the
device from Deep Sleep mode.
23.4 Program Verification and
Code Protection
For all devices in the PIC24F04KA201 family, code
protection for the general segment is controlled by the
Configuration bit, GSS0. This bit inhibits external reads
and writes to the program memory space; this has no
direct effect in normal execution mode.
Write protection is controlled by the GWRP bit for the
general segment in the Configuration Word. When this
bit is programmed to ‘0’, internal write and erase
operations to program memory are blocked.
23.5 In-Circuit Serial Programming
PIC24F04KA201 family microcontrollers can be
serially programmed while in the end application circuit.
This is simply done with two lines for clock (PGCx) and
data (PGDx) and three other lines for power, ground
and the programming voltage. This allows customers to
manufacture boards with unprogrammed devices and
then program the microcontroller just before shipping
the product. This also allows the most recent firmware
or a custom firmware to be programmed.

24.3 MPLAB C18 and MPLAB C30
C Compilers
The MPLAB C18 and MPLAB C30 Code Development
Systems are complete ANSI C compilers for
Microchip’s PIC18 and PIC24 families of microcon-
trollers and the dsPIC30 and dsPIC33 family of digital
signal controllers. These compilers provide powerful
integration capabilities, superior code optimization and
ease of use not found with other compilers.
For easy source level debugging, the compilers provide
symbol information that is optimized to the MPLAB IDE
debugger.
24.4 MPLINK Object Linker/
MPLIB Object Librari an
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.
The object linker/library features include:
Efficient linking of single libraries instead of many
smaller files
Enhanced code maintainability by grouping
related modules together
Flexible creation of libraries with easy module
listing, replacement, deletion and extraction
24.5 MPLAB ASM30 Assembler, Linker
and Librarian
MPLAB ASM30 Assembler produces relocatable
machine code from symbolic assembly language for
dsPIC30F devices. MPLAB C30 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:
Support for the entire dsPIC30F instruction set
Support for fixed-point and floating-point data
Command line interface
Rich directive set
Flexible macro language
MPLAB IDE compatibility
24.6 MPLAB SIM Software Simulator
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.
The MPLAB SIM Software Simulator fully supports
symbolic debugging using the MPLAB C18 and
MPLAB C30 C Compilers, and the MPASM and
MPLAB ASM30 Assemblers. The software simulator
offers the flexibility to develop and debug code outside
of the hardware laboratory environment, making it an
excellent, economical software development tool.

PIC24F04KA201 FAMILY
25.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY
The PIC24F instruction set adds many enhancements
to the previous PIC® MCU instruction sets, while
maintaining an easy migration from previous PIC MCU
instruction sets. Most instructions are a single program
memory word. Only three instructions require two
program memory locations.
Each single-word instruction is a 24-bit word divided
into an 8-bit opcode, which specifies the instruction
type and one or more operands, which further specify
the operation of the instruction. The instruction set is
highly orthogonal and is grouped into four basic
categories:
Word or byte-oriented operations
Bit-oriented operations
Literal operations
Control operations
Table 25-1 lists the general symbols used in describing
the instructions. The PIC24F instruction set summary
in Table 25-2 lists all the instructions, along with the
status flags affected by each instruction.
Most word or byte-oriented W register instructions
(including barrel shift instructions) have three
operands:
The first source operand, which is typically a
register ‘Wb’ without any address modifier
The second source operand, which is typically a
register ‘Ws’ with or without an address modifier
The destination of the result, which is typically a
register ‘Wd’ with or without an address modifier
However, word or byte-oriented file register instructions
have two operands:
The file register specified by the value, ‘f’
The destination, which could either be the file
register, ‘f’, or the W0 register, which is denoted
as ‘WREG’
Most bit-oriented instructions (including simple
rotate/shift instructions) have two operands:
The W register (with or without an address
modifier) or file register (specified by the value of
‘Ws’ or ‘f’)
The bit in the W register or file register (specified
by a literal value or indirectly by the contents of
register ‘Wb’)
The literal instructions that involve data movement may
use some of the following operands:
A literal value to be loaded into a W register or file
register (specified by the value of ‘k’)
The W register or file register where the literal
value is to be loaded (specified by ‘Wb’ or ‘f’)
However, literal instructions that involve arithmetic or
logical operations use some of the following operands:
The first source operand, which is a register ‘Wb’
without any address modifier
The second source operand, which is a literal
value
The destination of the result (only if not the same
as the first source operand), which is typically a
register ‘Wd’ with or without an address modifier
The control instructions may use some of the following
operands:
A program memory address
The mode of the table read and table write
instructions
All instructions are a single word, except for certain
double-word instructions, which were made
double-word instructions so that all of the required
information is available in these 48 bits. In the second
word, the 8 MSbs are ‘0’s. If this second word is
executed as an instruction (by itself), it will execute as
a NOP.
Most single-word instructions are executed in a single
instruction cycle, unless a conditional test is true or the
Program Counter (PC) is changed as a result of the
instruction. In these cases, the execution takes two
instruction cycles, with the additional instruction
cycle(s) executed as a NOP. Notable exceptions are the
BRA (unconditional/computed branch), indirect
CALL/GOTO, all table reads and writes, and
RETURN/RETFIE instructions, which are single-word
instructions but take two or three cycles.
Certain instructions that involve skipping over the
subsequent instruction require either two or three
cycles if the skip is performed, depending on whether
the instruction being skipped is a single-word or
two-word instruction. Moreover, double-word moves
require two cycles. The double-word instructions
execute in two instruction cycles.
Note: This chapter is a brief summary of the
PIC24F instruction set architecture and is
not intended to be a comprehensive
reference source.

Note 1: Data in “Typ” column is at 3.3V, 25°C unless otherwise stated. Parameters are for design guidance only
and are not tested.
2: Instruction cycle period (T
CY) equals two times the input oscillator time base period. All specified values are
based on characterization data for that particular oscillator type under standard operating conditions with
the device executing code. Exceeding these specified limits may result in an unstable oscillator operation
and/or higher than expected current consumption. All devices are tested to operate at “Min.” values with an
external clock applied to the OSCI/CLKI pin. When an external clock input is used, the “Max.” cycle time
limit is “DC” (no clock) for all devices.
3: Measurements are taken in EC mode. The CLKO signal is measured on the OSCO pin. CLKO is low for the
Q1-Q2 period (1/2 T
CY) and high for the Q3-Q4 period (1/2 TCY).
