1.1 Clocking Scheme/Instruction
Cycle
The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by
four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature
clocks, namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the pro-
gram counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, the
instruction is fetched from the program memory and
latched into the instruction register in Q4. The instruc-
tion is decoded and executed during the following Q1
through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow
are shown in Figure 1-2.
1.2 I nstruction Flow/ P ipelining
An Instruction Cycle consists of four Q cycles (Q1,
Q2, Q3 and Q 4). The instruc tio n fe tch and ex ecu t e a re
pipelined, such that fetch takes one instruction cycle,
while decode and execute takes another instruction
cycle. However, due to the pipelining, each instruction
effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction
causes the program counter to change (e.g. GOTO),
then tw o cycles are req uired to com plete the ins truction
(Example 1-1).
A fetch cycle begins with the program counter (PC)
incrementing in Q1.
In the ex ecution cycle , the fetched instruction i s latched
into the Instruction Register in cycle Q1. This instruc-
tion is then decoded and executed during the Q2, Q3,
and Q4 cycles. Data memory is read during Q2 (oper-
and read) and written during Q4 (destination write).

2.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION
2.1 Program Memory Organization
The PIC16C925/926 family has a 13-bit program
counter capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program
memory space.
For the PIC16C925, only the first 4K x 14 (0000h-
0FFFh) are physically implemented. Accessing a loca-
tion above the physically implemented addresses will
cause a wraparound. The RESET vector is at 0000h
and the interrupt vector is at 0004h.

2.2 Data Memory Organization
The data memory is partitioned into four banks which
cont ain the General Purpose R egisters a nd the Specia l
Function Registers. Bits RP1 and RP0 are the bank
select bits.
The lower locations of each Bank are reserved for the
Special Function Registers. Above the Special Func-
tion Registers are General Purpose Registers imple-
mented as static RAM. All four banks contain special
function registers. Some high use special function
register s are mirrored in other ba nks for code reduc tion
and quicker access.
2.2. 1 GENER AL PURPOSE REGISTER
FILE
The registe r file can be accesse d eith er directly, or indi-
rectly through the File Select Register FSR
(Section 2.6).
The follow ing General Purp ose Registers are no t phys-
ically implemented:
F0h-FFh of Bank 1
170h-17Fh of Bank 2
1F0h-1FFh of Bank 3
These locations are used for common access across
banks.

2.3 Special Function Registers
The Special Function Registers (SFRs) are registers
used by the CPU and Peripheral Modules for control-
ling the desired operation of the device. These regis-
ters are implem ented as static RAM.
The spec ial function regi sters can be clas sified into two
sets, core and peripheral. Those registers associated
with the core functions are described in this section.
Those related to the operation of the peripheral
features are described in the section of that peripheral
feature.

2.3.1 STATUS REGISTER
The STATUS register, shown in Register 2-1, contains
the ar ithmetic st atus of th e ALU, the RESET st atus and
the bank select bits for data memory.
The STATUS register can be the destination for any
instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS
register is the destination for an instruction that affects
the Z, DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is
disabl ed. These bit s are set or clea red according to the
device logic. Furthermore, the TO and PD bits are not
writable. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the
STATUS register as destination may be different than
intended.
For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper-three
bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the STATUS register
as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,
SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the
STATUS register because these instructions do not
affe ct the Z, C or D C bits from th e ST ATU S register . For
other in str uct ion s, no t affec ting any st at us bi ts, see the
Instruction Set Summary.

2.4 PCL and PCLATH
The progra m counter (PC) is 13-bits wide. Th e low byte
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and
writable register. The upper bits (PC<12:8>) are not
readable, but are indirectly writable through the
PCLATH register. On any RESET, the upper bi t s of the
PC will b e clea red. Fig ure 2-5 sho ws the tw o sit uation s
for the l oading of th e PC. The up per ex ample in the fi g-
ure shows how the PC is loaded on a write to PCL
(PCLATH<4:0> PCH). The low e r ex ampl e i n th e fig-
ure shows how the PC is loaded during a CALL or GOTO
instruction ( PCLATH<4:3> PCH).
FIGURE 2-5: LOADING OF PC IN
DIFFERENT SITUATIONS
2.4.1 COMPUTED GOTO
A comput ed GOTO is a ccom pli shed by a ddi ng a n offset
to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When doing a
table read using a computed GOTO method, care
should be ex ercise d if th e t able loca tion c rosse s a PCL
memory boundary (each 256 byte block). Refer to the
application note Implementin g a T able Read (AN556).
2.4.2 STACK
The PIC16CXXX family has an 8-level deep x 13-bit
wide hardware stack. The stack space is not part of
either program or data space and the stack pointer is not
readable or writable. The PC is PUSHed onto the stack
when a CALL instruction is executed, or an interrupt
causes a branch. The stack is POPed in t he event of a
RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction execution.
PCLATH is not affected by a PUSH or POP operation.
The st ack operates as a circular buf fer . This means that
after the st ack h as be en PU SHed ei ght ti mes, the nin th
push ov erwrit es the v alue tha t was stor ed fro m the first
push. The tenth p us h ov erw ri tes the se cond pus h (an d
so on).
2.5 Program Memory Paging
PIC16C925/926 devices are capable of addressing a
continuous 8K word block of program memory. The
CALL and GOTO instructions provide only 11-bits of
address to allow branching within any 2K program
memory page. When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction,
the upper 2-bits of the address are provided by
PCLATH<4:3>. When doing a CALL or GOTO instruc-
tion, the us er must ensu re tha t the p a ge s ele ct bi ts are
programmed so that the desired program memory
page is addressed. If a return from a CALL instr uction
(or interrupt) is executed , the entire 13-bit PC is pushed
onto the stack. Therefore, manipulation of the
PCLATH<4:3> bits is not required for the RETURN
instructions (which POPs the address from the stack).
Example 2-1 shows the calling of a subroutine in
page 1 of the prog ram memory. This examp le assume s
that PCLATH is saved and restored by the Interrupt
Service Routine (if interrupts are used).

instructions, or the vectoring to an
interr upt add ress.
Note: The contents of the PCLATH register are
unchanged after a RETURN or RETFIE
instruction is executed. The user must

2.6 Indirect Addressing, INDF and
FSR Registers
The INDF register is no t a physica l register. Addres sing
the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF reg-
ister. Any instruction using the INDF register actually
acces ses the register pointed to by the File Select R eg-
ister (FSR). Reading the INDF register itself, indirectly
(FSR = 0) , wi ll pro duce 00h. Writing to th e IN DF regi s-
ter indirectly results in a no operation (although status
bits may be affected). An effective 9-bit address is
obtained by concatenating the 8-bit FSR register and
the IRP bit (STATUS<7>), as shown in Figure 2-6.
A simple program to clear RAM locations 20h-2Fh
using indirect addressing is shown in Example 2-2.

3.0 READING PROGRAM MEMORY
The Program Memory is readable during normal oper-
ation over the entire VDD range. It is indirectly
addressed through Special Function Registers (SFR).
Up to 14-bit numbers can be stored in memory for use
as calib ration param eters, serial numb ers, packe d 7-bit
ASCII, etc . Ex ecuti ng a program m emory lo cat ion co n-
ta ining dat a that forms an inv alid instructi on result s in a
NOP.
There are five SFRs used to read the program and
memory. These registers are:
PMCON1
PMDATA
PMDATH
PMADR
PMADRH
The program memory allows word reads. Program
memory access allows for checksum calculation and
reading ca libration t ables.
When interfacing to the program memory block, the
PMDATH:PMDATA registers form a two-byte word,
which holds the 14-bit data for reads. The
PMADRH:PMADR registers form a two-byte word,
which holds the 13-bit address of the location being
accessed. These devices can have from 4K words to
8K words of program memory, with an address range
from 0h to 3FFFh.
The unused upper bits in both the PMDATH and
PMADRH registers are not implemented and read as
0s.
3.1 PMADR
The addres s registers can addr ess up to a maximum of
8K words of program memory.
When selecting a program address value, the MSByte
of the address is written to the PMADRH register and
the LSByte is writte n to the PMADR regist er . The upper
MSbits of PMADRH must always be clear.
3.2 PMCON1 Register
PMCON1 is the control register for memory accesses.
The control bit RD initiates read operations. This bit
cannot be cl eare d, onl y set, in soft wa re. It is cl eare d in
hardware at the completion of the read operation.

3.3 Readi ng the Program Memory
A program me mory location may be read by wri ting two
bytes of the address to the PMADR and PMADRH reg-
isters, and then setting control bit RD (PMCON1<0>).
Once the read control bit is set, the microcontroller will
use the next two instruction cycles to read the data. The
data is available in the PMDATA and PMDATH regis-
ters after the NOP instruction. Therefore, it can be read
as two bytes in th e follow ing instruc tions. The PMDAT A
and PMD A TH registe rs will hold th is value until anoth er
read operation.
EXAMPLE 3-1: PROGRAM READ
3.4 Operation During Code Protect
If th e progr am memor y is not co de pro tecte d, the pr o-
gram memory control can read anywhere within the
program memory.
If the entire program memory is code protected, the
program m emory con trol can re ad anywh ere within the
program memory.
If only part of the program memory is code protected,
the program memory control can read the unprotected
segment and cannot read the protected segment. The
protected area cannot be read, because it may be
possible to write a downloading routine into the
unprotected segment.

4.0 I/O PORTS
Some p ins for these po rts are multip lexed wit h an alt er-
nate function for the peripheral features on the device.
In general, when a peripheral is enabled, that pin may
not be used as a general purpose I/O pin.
4.1 PORTA and TRISA Register
The RA4/T0CKI pin is a Schmitt Trigger input and an
open drain output. All other RA port pins have TTL
input levels and full CMOS output drivers. All RA pins
have data direction bits (TRISA register), which can
configure these pins as output or input.
Setting a bit in the TR ISA regi ster pu ts the co rrespon d-
ing output driver in a Hi-Impedance mode. Clearing a
bit in t he TR ISA registe r pu ts the cont ent s of the outp ut
latch on the selected pin.
Reading the PORTA register reads the status of the
pins, where as wri tin g to i t will write to th e po rt lat ch. All
write operations are read-modify-write operations.
Therefore , a write to a port implies that the port pins are
read, thi s valu e is mod ified, and the n writ ten to th e port
data l atch.
Pin RA4 is multiplexed with the Timer0 module clock
input to be come th e RA4/T0C KI pin. The othe r PORTA
pins are multiplexed with analog inputs and the analog
VREF input. The operation of each pin is selected by
clearin g/setting the control bit s in the ADCO N1 register
(A/D Control Register1).
The TRISA register controls the direction of the RA
pins, ev en when they are being us ed as ana lo g inputs .
The user mu st ensure the bit s in the TRISA regi ster are
maintained set when using them as an alog i nputs.

4.2 PORTB and TRISB Register
PORTB is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-
sponding data direction register is TRISB. Setting a bit
in the TRISB register puts the corresponding output
driver in a Hi-Impedance Input mode. Clearing a bit in
the TRISB regi ster puts the c ontents of the output latc h
on the selected pin(s).
EXAMPLE 4- 2: INITIALIZING PORTB
Each of th e POR TB pins has a we ak inte rnal pul l-up. A
single control bit can turn on all the pull-ups. This is per-
formed by clearing bit RBPU (OPTION<7>). The weak
pull-up is automatically turned off when the port pin is
configu red as an ou tput. The pu ll-up s are also di sabled
on a Power-on Reset.
FIGURE 4-3: BLOCK DIAGRAM OF
RB3:RB0 PINS
Four of the PORTB pins (RB7:RB4) have an
interrupt-on-change feature. Only pins configured as
inputs can cause this interrupt to occur (i.e., any
RB7:RB4 pin configured as an output is excluded from
the interrupt-on-change comparison). The input pins (of
RB7:RB4) are compared with the old value latched on
the last read of PORTB. The mismatch outputs of
RB7:RB4 are ORed together to generate the RB Port
Change Interrupt with flag bit RBIF (INTCON<0>).
This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The
user, in the Interrupt Service Routine, can clear the
interr upt in the foll owin g man ner:
a) Any read or write of PORTB. This will end the
mismatch condition.
b) Clear flag bit RBIF.
A mism at c h c ond it i on wi ll co nti n ue to s et f lag bi t RB IF.
Reading PORTB will end the mismatch condition, and
allow flag bit RBIF to be cleared.
This interrupt-on-mismatch feature, together with soft-
ware configurable pull-ups on these four pins, allow easy
interface to a keypad and make it possible for wake-up on
key depression. Refer to the Embedded Control Hand-
book, Implementing Wake-Up on Key S troke (AN552).
The interrupt-on-change feature is recommended for
wake-up on key depression operation and operations
where PORTB is only used for the interrupt-on-change
feature. Polling of PORTB is not recommended while
using the interrupt-on-change feature.

4.3 PORTC and TRISC Register
PORT C is a 6-bit, bi-directional port. Each pin is individ-
ually configurable as an input or output through the
TRISC register. PORTC is multiplexed with several
peripheral functions (Table 4-5). PORTC pins have
Schmitt Trigger input buffers .
When enabling peripheral functions, care should be
taken in defini ng TRIS bi t s fo r each POR T C pin. Som e
peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an out-
put, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to
make a pin an input. Since the TRIS bit override is in
effect while the peripheral is enabled, read-
modify-write instructions (BSF, BCF, XORWF) with
TRISC as destination should be avoided. The user
should refer to the correspon ding perip heral sect ion for
the correct TRIS bit settings.

4.8 I/O Programming Considerations
4.8.1 BI-DIRECTIONAL I/O PORTS
Any instruction which writes, operates internally as a
read followed by a write operation. The BCF and BSF
instructions, for example, read the register into the
CPU, execute the bit operation and write the result
back to the register. Caution must be used w h en t hes e
instructions are applied to a port with both inputs and
outputs defined. For example, a BSF operation on bit5
of POR TB wil l caus e all ei ght bit s of POR TB to b e read
into the CPU. Then the BSF operation takes place on
bit5 and PORTB is written to the output latches. If
another bit of PORTB is used as a bi- directional I/O pin
(e.g., bit0) and it is defined as an input at this time, the
input si gnal presen t on th e pi n itself wo uld be rea d in to
the CPU and rewri tten to the dat a latch of this p articular
pin, ov erwriting the previous co ntent. As long as the pin
stays in the input mode, no problem occurs. However,
if bit0 is switched into output mode later on, the con-
tents of the data latch may now be unknown.
Reading the port register reads the values of the port
pins. W ri ting to the port regis te r, writes the val ue to the
port latch. When using read-modify-write instructions
(e.g. BCF, BSF) on a port , the v alu e of the po rt pi ns i s
read, the desired operation is done to this value, and
this value is then written to the port latch.
Example 4-8 shows the effect of two sequential
read-modify-write instructions on an I/O port. A pin
actively outputting a Low or High should not be driven
from external devices at the same time, in order to
change the level on this pin (wired-or, wired-and).
The resulting high output currents may damage the
chip.
EXAMPLE 4-8: READ-MODIFY-WRITE
INSTRUCTIONS ON AN
I/O PORT
4.8.2 SUCCESSIVE OPERATIONS ON I/O
PORTS
The actu al write to an I/O port happen s at the e nd of a n
instruction cycle, whereas for reading, the data must be
valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle
(Figure 4-10). Therefore, care must be exercised if a
write followed by a read operation is carried out on the
same I/O port. The sequence of instructions should be
such to allow the pin voltage to stabilize (load depen-
dent) befo re th e next ins truc tio n, w h ic h c aus es that file
to be read into the CPU, is executed. Otherwise, the
previous state of that pin may be read into the CPU,
rather than the new st a te. Whe n in doubt, it is bet ter to
separate these instructions with a NOP, or another
instruction not accessing this I/O port.

increm ent ev ery ins tru cti on cycl e (without p r es ca ler). If
the TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited
for the following two instruction cycles (Figure 5-2 and
Figure 5-3). The user can work around this by writing
an adjusted value to the TMR0 register.
Counter mode is selected by setting bit T0CS
(OPT ION<5>). In Counte r mode, Timer0 will incre ment
either on ev ery rising, or fall ing edge of pin RA4/T0 CKI.
The incrementing edge is determined by the Timer0
Source Edge Select bit T0SE (OPTION<4>). Clearing
bit T0SE selects the rising edge. Restrictions on the
external clock input are discussed in detail in
Section 5.2.
The prescaler is mutually exclusively shared between
the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. The
prescaler assignment is controlled in software by con-
trol bit PSA (OP TION<3>). Cle aring bit PSA will assign
the prescaler to the Timer0 module. The prescaler is
not readable or writable. When the prescaler is
assign ed to t he Timer0 mod ule, p resca le val ues o f 1:2,
1:4,..., 1:256 are selectable. Section 5.3 details the
operation of the prescaler.
5.1 Timer0 Interrupt
The TMR0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0 reg-
ister overflows from FFh to 00h. This overflow sets bit
TMR0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be masked
by clearing bit T0IE (INTCON<5>). Bit TMR0IF must be
cleared in software by the T imer0 mo dule Interrupt Ser-
vice Routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The
TMR0 interrupt cannot awaken the processor from
SLEEP, since the timer is shut-off during SLEEP.
Figure 5-4 displays the Timer0 interrupt timing.

5.2 Using Timer0 with an External
Clock
When an external cl ock input i s used for T ime r0, it must
meet certain requirements. The requirements ensure
the external clock c an be synchronized with the internal
phase clock (TOSC). Also, there is a del ay in the actual
incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization.
5.2.1 EXTERNAL CLOCK
SYNCHRONIZATION
When no pr escal er is used, t he ex tern al clo ck inp ut is
the same as the pre sc al er outp ut. Th e sy nch ron iz atio n
of T0CKI with the internal phase clocks is accom-
plishe d by sampling the prescale r output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks (Figure 5-5).
Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to be high for at
least 2TOSC (and a s mall RC dela y of 20 ns) and lo w for
at least 2TOSC (and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer
to the electrical specification of the desired device.
When a prescaler is used, the external clock input is
divided by the asynchronous ripple counter type pres-
caler, so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. For
the external clock to meet the sampling requirement,
the ripple counter must be taken into account. There-
fore, it is necessary for T0CKI to have a period of at
least 4TOSC (and a small RC delay of 40 ns) divid ed by
the prescaler value. The only requirement on T0CKI
high and low time is that they do not violate the mini-
mum pulse width requirement of 10 ns. Refer to param-
eters 40, 4 1 an d 42 i n the electr ica l s pec ifi ca tio n of th e
desired device.
5.2.2 TMR0 INCREMENT DELAY
Since the prescaler output is synchronized with the
internal clocks, there is a small delay from the time the
external clock ed ge occurs to th e time the T im er0 mod-
ule is actuall y increm ented. F igure 5-5 sho ws the delay
from the e xte rnal cl oc k e dge to the ti me r inc r ementing.

5.3 Prescaler
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer (Figure 5-6). For simplicity, this counter is being
referred to as prescaler throughout this data sheet.
Note that the prescaler may be used by either the
Time r0 m od ule or the WDT, but not b oth. Th us, a pres-
caler assignment for the Timer0 module means that
there is no pres cale r for the Watchdog T i mer, and vic e-
versa.
The PSA and PS2:PS0 bit s (OP TION<3:0>) de termine
the prescaler assignment and prescale ratio.
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions
writing to the TMR0 regist er (e.g. CLRF 1, MOVWF 1,
BSF 1,x....etc.) will clear the prescaler count. When
assigned to WDT, a CLRWDT instruction will clear the
prescaler count along with the Watchdog Timer. The
prescaler is not readable or writable.
FIGURE 5-6: BLOCK DIAGRAM OF THE TIMER0/WDT PRESCALER
Note: Writing to TMR0 when the prescaler is
assign ed to T imer0 , will clear th e prescaler
count, but will not change the prescaler
assignment.

6.0 TIMER1 MODULE
Timer1 is a 16-bit timer/counter consisting of two 8-bit
registers (TMR1H and TMR1L), which are readable
and writable. The TMR1 Register pair
(TMR1H:TMR1L) increments from 0000h to FFFFh
and roll s over to 0000h. The TMR1 Interrupt, if enable d,
is generated on overflow, which is latched in interrupt
flag bit, TMR1IF (PIR1<0>). This interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing TMR1 interrupt
enable bit, TMR1IE (PIE1<0>).
Timer1 can operate in one of two modes:
As a timer
As a counter
The operating mode is determined by the clock select
bit, TMR1CS (T1CON<1>).
In Timer mode, Timer1 increments every instruction
cycle. In Counter mode, it increments on every rising
edge of the external clock input.
Timer1 can be turned on and off using the control bit
TMR1ON (T1CON<0>).
Timer1 also has an internal RESET input. This
RESET can be generated by the CCP module
(Section 8.0). Register 6-1 shows the Timer1 control
register.
When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is
set), the RC1/T1OSI and RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI pins
become inputs, regardless of the TRISC<1:0>. RC1
and RC0 will be read as 0.

6.1 Timer1 Operation in Timer Mode
Timer mode is selected by clearing the TMR1CS
(T1CON<1>) bit. In this mode, the input clock to the
timer is FOSC/4. The synchronize control bit T1SYNC
(T1CON<2>) has no effect since the internal clock is
always in sync.
6.2 Timer1 Operat ion in Synchronized
Counter Mode
Counter mode is selected by setting bit TMR1CS. In
this mod e, the timer incr ement s on every risin g edge of
clock input on pin RC1/T1OSI when bit T1OSCEN is
set, or pin RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI when bit T1OSCEN is
cleared.
If T1SYNC is cleared, then the external clock input is
synchronized with internal phase clocks. The synchro-
nization is done after the prescaler stage. The pres-
caler is an asynchronous ripple counter.
In this configuration, during SLEEP mode, Timer1 will
not increment even if the external clock is present,
since the synchronization circuit is shut-off. The pres-
caler however will continue to increment.
6.2. 1 EXTERNAL CLOCK INPUT TIMING
FOR SYNCHRONIZED COUNTER
MODE
When an external clock in put is used for T imer1 in Syn-
chronized Counter mode, it must meet certain require-
ments. The external clock requirement is due to
internal phase clock (TOSC) synchronization. Also,
there is a delay in the actual incrementing of TMR1
after synchronization.
When the prescaler is 1:1, the external clock input is
the same as the pre sc ale r outp ut. The synch r on iza tio n
of T1CKI with the internal phase clocks is accom-
plishe d by sampli ng the prescale r output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is
necess ary for T1C KI to be hi gh for at leas t 2TOSC (and
a small RC delay of 20 ns), and low for at least 2TOSC
(and a small RC dela y of 20 ns ). Refer to the app rop r i-
ate electrical specifications, parameters 45, 46, and 47.
When a prescaler other than 1:1 is used, the external
clock input is divided by the asynchronous ripple
counter type prescaler, so that the prescaler output is
symmetrical. In order for the external clock to meet the
sampling requirement, the ripple coun ter must be taken
into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T1CKI to
have a period of at least 4TOSC (and a small RC delay
of 40 ns), divided by the prescaler value. The only
requirem ent on T1CK I high and l ow time is that th ey do
not violate the minimum pulse width requirements of
10 ns). Refer to the appropriate electrical specifica-
tions, parameters 40, 42, 45, 46, and 47.

6.3 Timer1 Operation in
Asynchronous Counter Mode
If control bit T1SYNC (T1CON<2>) is set, the external
clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to
increment asynchronous to the internal phase clocks.
The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can
generate an interrupt-on-overflow which will wake-up
the processor. However, special precautions in soft-
ware are needed to read from, or write to the Timer1
register pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) (Section 6.3.2).
In Asynchronous Counter mode, Timer1 cannot be
used as a time-base for capture or compare opera-
tions.
6.3.1 EXTERNAL CLOCK INPUT TIMING
WITH UNSYNCHRONIZED CLOCK
If control bit T1SYNC is set, the timer will increment
comple tely as ynch ronous ly. The in put cloc k mus t meet
certain minimum high time and low time requirements,
as specified in timing parameters 45, 46, and 47.
6.3.2 READIN G AND WRITING TMR1 IN
ASYNCHRONOUS COUNTER
MODE
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L, whi le the timer is running
from an external asynchronous clock, will ensure a
valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the
user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer
in two 8-b it va lue s itself, poses certain problems , si nc e
the timer may overflow between the reads.
For writes , it is re commend ed that th e user s imply sto p
the timer and write the desired values. A write conten-
tion may occur by writing to the timer registers while the
register is incrementing. This may produce an unpre-
dictable value in the timer register.
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care.
Example 6-1 is an example routine to read the 16-bit
timer value. This is useful if the timer cannot be
stopped.

6.4 Timer1 Oscillator
A crystal oscillator circu it is built-in between pins T1OSI
(input) and T1OSO (amplifier output). It is enabled by
setting control b it T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>). The osc illa-
tor is a low power oscillator rated up to 200 kHz. It will
continue to run during SLEEP. It is primarily intended
for a 32 kHz crystal. Table 6-1 shows the capacitor
selection for the Timer 1 oscillator.
The Timer1 oscillator is identical to the LP oscillator.
The user m us t prov id e a so ftwa re tim e de lay to en su re

6.5 Resetting Ti me r1 Us ing the CCP
Trigger Output
If the CCP1 module is configured in Compare mode to
generate a special event trigger (CCP1M3:CCP1M0
= 1011), this signal will reset Timer1.
T imer 1 must be c onfigured fo r either T ime r or Synch ro-
nized C ou nter m od e, to t a ke adv antage of this feature.
If Timer1 is running in Asynchronous Counter mode,
this reset operation may not work.
In the event that a write to Timer1 coincides with a
specia l event tri gger from CCP 1, the write will t ake pre-
cedence.
In this mode of o peration, the CCPR1H:CCPR1L regis-
ters pair effectively become the period register for
Timer1.
6.6 Resetting of Ti mer1 Register Pair
(TMR1H:TMR1L)
TMR1H and TMR1L registers are not reset on a POR
or any o ther RESET, except by the CCP1 specia l event
trigger.
T1CON register is reset to 00h on a Power-on Reset.
In any other RESET, the register is unaffected.

7.0 TIMER2 MODULE
Timer2 is an 8-bit timer with a prescaler and a
postscaler. It can be used as the PWM time-base for
the PWM mo de of the CCP modu le. It can also be used
as a time-base for the Master mode SPI clock. The
TMR2 register is readable and writable, and is cleared
on any device RESET.
The in put cloc k (FOSC/4) has a prescale option of 1:1,
1:4, or 1:16 (selected by control bits
T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON<1: 0>)).
The Timer2 module has an 8-bit period register, PR2.
TMR2 increments from 00h until it matches PR2 and
then resets to 00h on the next increment cycle. PR2 is
a readable and writable register. The PR2 register is
set during RESET.
The match output of TMR2 goes through a 4-bit
postscaler (which gives a 1:1 to 1:16 scaling inclusive)
to generate a TMR2 interrupt (latched in flag bit
TMR2IF, (PIR1<1>)).
Time r2 c an be s hu t-off by clea ring c ontrol bi t TMR2ON
(T2CON<2>) to minimize power consumption.
Figure 7-1 shows the Ti mer2 control register.
7.1 Timer2 Prescaler and Postscaler
The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared
when any of the following occurs:
a write to the TMR2 register

8.0 CAPTURE/COMPARE/ PWM
(CCP) MODULE
The CCP (C ap ture /Com p a r e/PW M) m od ule co nt ai ns a
16-bit register which can operate as a 16-bit capture
register, as a 16-bit compare register, or as a PWM
master/slave duty cycle register. Table 8-1 shows the
timer resources used by the CCP module.
The Capture/Compare/PWM Register1 (CCPR1) is
comprised of two 8-bit registers: CCPR1L (low byte)
and C CPR1H (high byte). T he CCP1C ON register con-
trols the ope rati on o f CCP1 . All thre e are read abl e an d
writable.
Register 8-1 shows the CCP1CON register.
For use of the CCP module, refer to the Embedded
Control Handb ook, Using the CCP Modu les (AN594).

8.1 Capture Mode
In Capture mode, CCPR1H:CCPR1L captures the
16-bit val ue of the TMR1 register when an event occurs
on pin RC2/CCP1 (Figure 8-1). An event can be
selected to be one of the following:
Every falling edge
Every rising edge
Every 4th rising edge
Every 16th rising edge
An event is selected by control bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0
(CCP1CON<3:0>). When a capture is made, the inter-
rupt request flag bit CCP1IF (PIR1<2>) is set. It must
be cle ared in so ftware. If a nother captu re occurs b efore
the value in register CCPR1 is read, the old captured
value is overwritten with the new captured value.
8.1.1 CCP PIN CONFIGURATION
In Capt ure m od e, th e R C2/CCP1 pin shoul d b e config-
ured as an i nput by setting t he TRISC<2> bit.
FIGURE 8-1: CAPTURE MODE
OPERATION BLOCK
DIAGRAM
8.1.2 TIMER1 MODE SELECTION
Timer1 must be running in Timer mode, or Synchro-
nized Counter mode, for the CCP module to use the
capture feature. In Asynchronous Counter mode, the
capture ope ration may not wo rk.
8.1.3 SOFTWARE INTERRUPT
When the Capture mode is changed, a false capture
interrupt may be generated. The user should keep
enable b it CCP1 IE (PIE1<2>) c lear to av oid fal se inter-
rupts and should clear flag bit CCP1IF following any
such chan ge in ope rati ng mod e.
8.1.4 CCP PRESCALER
There are four prescaler settings, specified by bits
CCP1M3:CCP1M0. Whenever the CCP module is
turned off, or the CCP module is not in Capture mode,
the prescaler counter is cleared. This means that any
RESET will clear the prescaler counter.
Switching from one capture prescaler to another may
generate an interrupt. Also, the prescaler counter will
not be cleare d, therefore , the first cap ture may be from
a non-zero prescaler. Example 8-1 shows the recom-
mended method for switching between capture pres-
calers. This example also clears the prescaler counter
and will not generate the false interrupt.

Note: If the RC2/CCP1 pin is configured as an

ture condition.

8.2 Compare Mode
In C ompare mo de, t he 16- bit CC PR1 re gist er va lue is
constantly compared against the TMR1 register pair
value. Whe n a match occu rs, the RC2/CCP1 pin is:
Driven high
Driven low
Remains unchanged
The action on the pin is based on the value of control
bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0 (CCP1CON<3:0>). At the
same time, a compare interrupt is also generated.
FIGURE 8-2: COMPARE MODE
OPERATION BLOCK
DIAGRAM
8.2.1 CCP PIN CONFIGURATION
The user must configure the RC2/CCP1 pin as an out-
put by clearing the TRISC<2> bit.
8.2.2 TIMER1 MODE SELECTION
Timer1 must be running in Timer mode, or Synchro-
nized Counter mode, if the CCP module is using the
compare feature. In Asynchronous Counter mode, the
compare operation may not work.
8.2.3 SOFTWARE INTERRUPT MODE
When Generate Software Interrupt is chosen, the
CCP1 pin is not affected. Only a CCP interrupt is gen-
erated (if enabled).
8.2.4 SPECIAL EVENT TRIGGER
In this mode, an internal hardware trigger is generated
which may be used to initiate an action.
The special event trigger output of CCP1 resets the
TMR1 register pair and starts an A/D conversion. This
allows the CCPR1H:CCPR1L register pair to ef fectively
be a 16-bit programmable period register for Timer1.
Note: Clearing the CCP1CON register will force
the RC2/CCP1 co mpare outp ut latch to the
default low level. This is not the PORTC
I/O data latch.

8.3 PWM Mode
In Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode, the CCP1 pin
produces up to a 10-bit resolution PWM output. Since
the CCP1 pin is multiplexed with the PORTC data latch,
the TRISC<2> bit must be cleared to make the CCP1
pin an out put.
Figure 8-3 shows a simplified block diagram of the
CCP module in PWM mode.
For a ste p-by-step proc edure on how t o set up the CC P
module for PWM operation, see Section 8.3.3.
FIGURE 8-3: SIMPLIFIED PWM BLOCK
DIAGRAM
A PWM output (Figure 8-4) has a time-base (period)
and a time that the output stays high (duty cycle). The
frequency of the PWM is the inverse of the period
(1/period).
FIGURE 8-4: PWM OUTPUT
8.3.1 PWM PE RIO D
The PWM p eriod is spec ified by writi ng to the PR2 reg-
ister. The PWM period can be calculated using the fol-
lowing formula:
PWM period = [ (PR2) + 1 ] • 4 • TOSC
(TMR2 prescale value)
PWM frequency is defined as 1 / [PWM period].
When TM R2 is equal to PR2, t he following three event s
occur on the next increment cycle:
TMR2 is cleared
The CCP1 pin is set (exception: if PWM duty
cycle = 0%, the CCP1 pin will not be set)
The PWM duty cycle is latched from C CPR1L into
CCPR1H
8.3.2 PWM DUTY CYCLE
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing to the
CCPR1L register and to the CCP1CON<5:4> bits. Up
to 10 -bit re soluti on is a vailabl e; the C CPR1L c ontains
the eight MSbs and CCP1CON<5:4> contains the two
LSbs. This 10-bit value is represented by
CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>. The following equation is
used to calculate the PWM duty cycle in time:
PWM duty cycle = (CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>)
TOSC (TMR2 pr escale value)
CCPR1L and CCP1CON<5:4> can be written to at any
time, but the duty cycle value is not latched into
CCPR1H until after a match between PR2 and TMR2
occurs (i.e., the period is complete). In PWM mode,
CCPR1H is a read only register.
The CCPR1H register and a 2-bit internal latch are
used to dou ble buf fer th e PWM duty cycle. Thi s doubl e
buffering is essential for glitchless P WM operation.
When the CCPR1H and 2-bit latch match TMR2, con-
catenate d with an in terna l 2-b it Q clo ck , or 2 bits of the
TMR2 prescaler, the CCP1 pin is cleared.
The maximum PWM resolution (bits) for a given PWM
frequency is given by the equation:
Note: Clearing the CCP1CON register will force
the CCP1 PWM output latch to the default
low level. This is not the PORTC I/O data
latch.

quency than the PWM output.

EQUATION 8-1: EXAMPLES OF PWM PERIOD AND DUTY CYCLE CALCULATION
At most, an 8-bit resolution duty cycle can be obtained
from a 31 .25 kHz fre quency and a 8 MHz osci llator , i.e .,
0 CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4> 255. Any value g reater
than 255 will result in a 100% duty cycle.
In order to achieve higher resolution, the PWM fre-
quency must be decreased. In order to achieve higher
PWM frequency, the resolution must be decreased.
Table 8-2 lists example PWM frequencies and resolu-
tions for FOSC = 8 MHz. TMR2 prescaler and PR2 val-
ues are also sho w n.
8.3.3 SET-UP FOR PWM OPERATION
The following steps should be taken when configuring
the CCP module for PWM operation:
1. Set the PWM period by writing to the PR2
register.
2. Set the PWM duty cycle by writing to the
CCPR1L register and CCP1CON<5:4> bits.
3. Make the CCP1 pin an output by clearing the
TRISC<2> bit.
4. Set the TMR2 prescale value and e nable Timer2
by writing to T2CON.
5. Configure the CCP module for PWM operation.
TABLE 8-2: EXAMPLE PWM FREQUENCIES AND RESOLUTIONS AT 8 MHz
1. Find the value of the PR2 register, given:
Desired PWM frequency = 31.25 kHz
FOSC = 8 MHz
TMR2 prescale = 1
From the equat ion f or PWM period in Section 8.3.1,
1 / 31.25 kHz = [ (PR2) + 1 ] 4 1/8 MHz 1
or 32 µs = [ (PR2) + 1 ] 4 125 ns 1 = [ (PR2) + 1 ] 0.5 µs
PR2 = (32 µs / 0.5 µs) - 1
PR2 = 63
2. Find the maximum resolution of the duty cycle that can be used with a 31.25 kHz frequency and
8 MHz oscillator.
From the equation from maximum PWM resolution in Section 8.3.2,
1 / 31.25 kHz = 2PWM RESOLUTION 1 / 8 MHz 1
or 32 µs= 2

accomplish communication, typically three pins are
used:
Serial Data Out (SDO) RC5/SDO
Serial Data In (SDI) RC4/SDI
Serial Clock (SCK) RC3/SCK
Additionally, a fourth pin may be used when in a Slave
mode of operation:
Slave Select (SS) RA5/AN4/SS
When initializing the SPI, several options need to be
specif ied. This is done by progra mming the ap propriate
control bits in the SSPCON register (SSPCON<5:0>)
and SSPSTAT<7:6>. These control bits allow the fol-
lowing to be specified:
Master mode (SCK is the clock outpu t)
Slave mode (SCK is the clock input)
Clock Polarity (Idle state of SCK)
Clock Edge (output data on rising/falling edge of
SCK)
Clock Rate (Master mode onl y)
Slave Select mode (Slave mode only)
The SSP consists of a transmit/receive shift register
(SSPSR) and a buf fer register (SSPBUF). The SSPSR
shifts the data in and out of the device, MSb first. The
SSPBUF holds the data tha t was written to the SSPSR,
until the received data is ready. Once the 8-bits of data
have bee n received, that byte is moved to the SSPBUF
register. Then, the buffer full detect bit, BF
(SSPSTAT<0>), and interrupt flag bit, SSPIF
(PIR1<3>), are set. This double buffering of the
received data (SSPBUF) allows the next byte to start
reception before reading the data that was just
received. Any write to the SSPBUF register during
transmission/reception of data will be ignored, and the
write colli sion det ec t bit, WCOL (SSPCON<7>), wil l be
set. User software must clear the WCOL bit so that it
can be determined if the following write(s) to the
SSPBUF register completed successfully. When the
application software is expecting to receive valid data,
the SSPBUF should be read before the next byte of
data to transfer is written to th e SSPBUF. Buffer full bit,
BF (SSPSTA T <0>), in dicates when SSPBUF h as been
loaded with the received data (transmission is com-
plete). When the SSPBUF is read, bit BF is cleared.
This dat a may be irrelevant if the SPI is only a transmit-
ter. Generally, the SSP interrupt is used to determine
when the transmission/reception has completed. The
SSPBUF must be read and/or written. If the interrupt
method is not going to be used, then software polling
can be done to ensure that a write collision does not
occur. Example 9-1 shows the loading of the SSPBUF
(SSPSR) for data transmission. The MOVWF RXDATA
instruction (shaded) is only requi red if the received data
is meaning ful.
EXAMPLE 9-1: LOADING THE SSPBUF
(SSPSR) REGISTER
The block diagram of the SSP module, when in SPI
mode (Figure 9-1), shows that the SSPSR is not
directly readable o r writa ble, and c an only be a ccessed
from add ressing the SSPBUF regis ter. Additiona lly, the
SSP status register (SSPSTAT) indicates the various
status conditions.

To enable the serial port, SSP enable bit, SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>) must be set. To reset or reconfigure
SPI mode, clear bit SSPEN, re-initialize the SSPCON
register, and then set bit SSPEN. This configures the
SDI, SDO, SCK, and SS pins as serial port pins. For the
pins to behave as the serial port function, they must
have their data direction bits (in the TRISC register)
appropriately programmed. That is:
SDI must have TRISC<4> set
SDO must have TRISC<5> cleared
SCK (Master mode) must have TRISC<3>
cleared
SCK (Slave mode) must have TRISC<3> set
SS must have TRISA<5> set and ADCON must
be configured such that RA5 is a digital I/O
Any seri al port fu nction th at is no t desired may be over-
ridden by programming the corresponding data direc-
tion (TRIS) register to the opposite value. An example
woul d b e in M ast er mo de, whe r e yo u are on l y se nd ing
data (to a display driver), then both SDI and SS could
be used as general purpose outputs by clearing their
corresponding TRIS register bits.
Figure 9-2 shows a typical connection between two
microcontrollers. The master controller (Processor 1)
initiates the data transfer by sending the SCK signal.
Data is shifted out of both shift registers on their pro-
grammed clock edge, and latched on the opposite
edge of the clock. Both processors should be pro-
gramme d to sa me Clo ck Polarity (CKP), th en both con-
trollers would send and receive data at the same time.
Whether the data is meaningful (or dummy data),
depends on the application software. This leads to
three scenarios for data transmission:
Master sends data Slave sends dummy data
Master sends data Slave sends dat a
Master send s dummy data Slave sends data
The master can initiate the data transfer at any time
because it controls the SCK. The master determines
when the slave (Processor 2) is to broadcast data by
the firmware pr otocol.
In Master mode, the data is transmitted/received as
soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI is
only going to receive, the SCK output could be disabled
(programmed as an input). The SSPSR register will
continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin at
the program med clock ra te. As each byte is received, it
will be loaded into the SSPBUF register as if a normal
received byte (interrupts and status bits appropriately
set). This could be useful in receiver applications as a
line activity monitor mo de.
In Slave m ode , the dat a is transmi tted and rece iv ed a s
the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the
last bit is latched, the interrupt flag bi t SSPIF (PIR1<3>)
is set.
The clock polarity is selected by app ropriately program-
ming bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). This then, would give
waveforms for SPI communication as shown in
Figure 9-3, Figure 9-4, a nd Fig ure 9-5, where the M SB
is transmitted first. In Master mode, the SPI clock rate
(bit rate) is user programmable to be one of the
following:
FOSC/4 (or TCY)
FOSC/16 (or 4 TCY)
FOSC/64 (or 16 TCY)
Timer2 output/2
This allows a maximum bit clock frequency (at 8 MHz)
of 2 MH z. When in Sl ave mode, the ex ternal cloc k must
meet the minimum high and low times.
In SLEEP mode, the slave can transmit and receive
data and wake the device from SLEEP.

The SS pin allows a Synchronous Slave mode. The
SPI must be in Slave mode (SSPCON<3:0> = 04h)
and the TRISA<5> bit must be set for the Synchro-
nous Slave mode to be enabled. When the SS pin
is low, transmission and reception are enabled and
the SDO pin is driven. When the SS pin goes high,
the SDO pin is no longer driven, even if in the mid-
dle of a transmitted byte and becomes a floating
output. External pull-up/pull-down resistors may be
desirable, depending on the application. To emulate two-wire communication, the SDO pin can
be connected to the SDI pin. When the SPI needs to
operate as a receiver, the SDO pin can be configured
as an in put. This d isables transmissi ons from th e SDO.
The SDI can always be left as an input (SDI function)
since it cann ot cre ate a bus con flict.

9.2 I 2C Overview
This section provides an overview of the Inter-
Integrated Circuit (I 2C) bus, with Section 9.3 discuss-
ing the operation of the SSP module in I2C mode.
The I2C bus i s a tw o-wire se rial in terf ace de velop ed by
the Philips Corporation. The original specification, or
standard mode, was for data transfers of up to 100
Kbps. An enhanced specification, or fast mode is not
supported. This device will communicate with fast
mode devices if attached to the same bus.
The I2C interface employs a comprehensive pr otocol to
ensure reliable transmission and reception of data.
When transmitting data, one device is the master
which initiates transfer on the bus and generates the
clock signals to permit that transfer, while the other
device(s) acts as the slave. All portions of the slave
protocol are implemented in the SSP modules hard-
ware, ex cept general ca ll s up port, whil e po rtio ns of th e
master protocol need to be addressed in the
PIC16CXXX software. Table 9-2 defines some of the
I2C bus terminology. For additional information on the
I2C interface specification, refer to the Philips docu-
ment #93 9839340011, The I2C bus and how to use it,
which can be obtained from the Philips Corporation.
In the I2C interface protocol, each device has an
address . When a m aster wishe s to initi ate a dat a trans-
fer, it first transmits the address of the device that it
wishes to talk to. All devices listen to see if this is
their address. Within this address, a bit specifies if the
master wishes to read from/write to the slave device.
The master and slave are always in opposite modes
(transmitter/receiver) of operation during a data trans-
fer . That is, they can be thought of as op erating in either
of these two rel ations:
Master-transmitter and Slave-receiver
Slave-transmitter and Master-receiver
In both cases, the master generates the clock signal.
The output stages of the clock (SCL) and data (SDA)
lines must have an open drain or open collector, in
order to perform the wired-AND function of the bus.
External pull-up resistors are used to ensure a high
level w hen no device is pulli ng the li ne dow n. The num -
ber of devices that may be attached to the I 2C bus is
lim ited onl y by the maxi mum bus l oadin g specifi cati on
of 400 pF.
9.2.1 INITIATING AND TERMINATING
DATA TRANSFER
During times of no data transfer (idle time), both the
clock line (SCL) and th e data lin e (SDA) are pulled high
through the external pull-up resistors. The START and
STOP conditions determine the start and stop of data
transmission. The START condition is defined as a
high to l ow t rans iti on of th e SD A whe n the SC L is h ig h.
The STOP condition is defined as a low to high transi-
tion of the SDA when the SCL is hi gh. Figure 9-6 shows
the START and STOP conditions. The master gener-
ates these conditions for starting and terminating data
transfer. Due to the definition of the START and STOP
conditions, when data is being transmitted, the SDA
line can only change state when the SCL line is low.

9.2.2 ADDRESSING I2C DEVICES
There are two address formats. The simplest is the
7-bit address format with a R/W bit (Figure 9-7). The
more complex is the 10-bit address with a R/W bit
(Figure 9-8). F or 10-b it addr ess forma t, two b ytes mus t
be transmitted with the first five bits specifying this to be
a 10-bit address.
FIGURE 9-7: 7-BIT ADDRESS FORMAT
FIGURE 9-8: I2C 10-BIT ADDRESS
FORMAT
9.2.3 TRANSFER ACKNOWLEDGE
All data must be transmitted per byte, with no limit to
the num ber of bytes transmit ted per da ta t ransfe r. After
each byte, the slave-receiver generates an Acknowl-
edge b it (ACK) (see Figure 9-9). When a slave-receiver
doesnt acknowledge the slave address or received
data, the master must abort the transfer. The slave
must leave SDA high so that the master can generate
the STOP condition (Figure 9-6).
FIGURE 9-9: SLAVE-RECEIVER
ACKNOWLEDGE
If the master is receiving the data (master-receiver), it
generates an Acknowledge signal for each received
byte of data, except for the last byte. To signal the end
of data to the slave-transmitter, the master does not
generate an Acknowledge (Not Acknowledge). The
slave then releases the SDA line so the master can
generate the STOP condition. The master can also
generate the STOP condition during the Acknowledge
pulse for valid termination of data transfer.
If the slav e n eed s to delay th e transmis s ion of the nex t
byte, h ol din g the SC L l ine l ow will fo rce the m as ter in to
a wait state. Data transfer continues when the slave
releases the SCL line. This allows the slave to move
the received data, or fetch the data it needs to transfer
before allowing the clock to start. This wait state tech-
nique can also be implemented at the bit level,
Figure 9-10. The slave will inherently stretch the clock
when it is a transmit ter , but will not wh en it is a receiver .
The slave will have to clear the SSPCON<4> bit to
enable clock stretching when it is a receiver.

Figure 9-11 and Figure 9-12 show master-transmitter
and Master-receiver data transfer sequences.
When a master does not wish to relinquish the bus (by
generating a STOP condition), a Repeated START
condition (Sr) must be generated. This condition is
identical to the ST ART condition (SDA goes high-to-low
while SCL is high), but occurs after a data transfer
Acknowledge pu lse (not the bus-free state). This al lows
a master to send commands to the slave and then
receive the requested information, or to address a dif-
ferent slave device. This sequence is shown in
Figure 9-13.

9.2.4 MULTI-MASTER
The I2C protocol allows a system to have more than
one master. This is called multi-master. When two or
more masters try to transfer data at the same time,
arbit rati on and sy nc hronizati on occ ur.
9.2.4.1 Arbitration
Arbitration takes place on the SDA line, while the SCL
line is high. The master, which transmits a high when
the other master transmits a low, loses arbitration
(Figure 9-14) and turns off it s data output st age. A mas-
ter, which lost arbitration can generate clock pulses
until the end of the data byte where it lost arbitration.
When the master devices are addressing the same
device, arbitration continues into the data.
FIGURE 9-14: MULTI-MASTER
ARBITRATION
(TWO MASTERS)
Masters that also incorporate the slave function and
have lost arbitration, must immediately switch over to
Slave-Receiver mode. This is because the winning
master-transmitter may be addressing it.
Arbitration is not allowed between:
A Repeated START condition
A STOP condition and a data bit
A Repeated START condition and a STOP
condition
Care ne eds t o be t aken to ensure that t hese c ondit ions
do not occur.
9.2.4.2 Clock Synchronization
Clock synchronization occurs after the devices have
started arbitration. This is performed using a
wired-AND connection to the SCL line. A high to low
transition on the SCL line causes the concerned
devices to start counting off their low period. Once a
device clock has gone low, it will hold the SCL line low
until it s SCL high state is reac hed. The low to high tran-
sition of this cloc k ma y not cha nge the st ate of the SCL
line, if another device clock is still within its low period.
The SCL li ne i s he ld l ow by the devi ce w i th the lon ges t
low period. Devices with shorter low periods enter a
high wait st ate, until the SCL line comes high. When the
SCL line comes high, all devices start counting off their
high periods. The first device to complete its high
period w ill pull the SCL li ne low. The SCL line hig h time
is determined by the device with the shortest high
period, Figure 9-15.

9.3 SSP I 2C Operation
The SSP module in I2C mode fully implement s all slav e
functions, except general call support, and provides
interrupts on START and STOP bits in hardware to
facilitate firmware implementations of the master func-
tions. Th e SSP mod ule imple ment s the st andard m ode
specifications as well as 7-bit and 10-bit addressing.
Two pins are used for data transfer. These are the
RC3/SCK/SCL pin, which is the clock (SCL), and the
RC4/SDI/SDA pin, which is the data (SDA). The user
must configure these pins as inputs or outputs through
the TRISC<4:3> bits. The SSP module functions are
enabled by setting SSP enable bit, SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>).
FIGURE 9-16: SSP BLOCK DIAGRAM
(I2C MODE)
The SSP module has five registers for I2C operation.
These are the:
SSP Control Register (SSPCON)
SSP Status Register (SSPSTAT)
Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF)
SSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly
accessible
SSP Address Register (SSPADD)
The SSPCON register allows control of the I2C opera-
tion. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON<3:0>) allow
one of the following I2C modes to be selected:
I2C Slave mode (7-bit address)
I2C Slave mode (10-bit address)
I2C Slave mode (7-bit address), with START and
STOP bit interrupts enabled
I2C Slave mo de (10-bit address) , with STA RT and
STOP bit interrupts enabled
I2C Firmware controlled Master mode, slave is
idle
Selection of any I2C mode, with the SSPEN bit set,
forces the SCL and SDA pins to be open drain, pro-
vided these pins are programmed to inputs by setting
the appropriate TRISC bits.
The SSPSTAT register gives the status of the data
transfer. This information includes detection of a
START or STOP bit, specifies if the received byte was
data or address, if the next byte is the completion of
10-bit address, and if this will be a read or write data
transfer. The SSPSTAT register is read only.
The SSPBUF is the register to which transfer data is
written to or read from. The SSPSR register shifts the
data i n or out of the device . In r eceiv e ope ratio ns, t he
SSPBUF and SSPSR create a doubled buffered
receive r . This a llows recep tion of the nex t byte to begin
before r eading the la st byte of rece ived dat a. When the
complete byte is received, it is transferred to the
SSPBUF register and flag bit SSPIF is set. If another
complete byte is received before the SSPBUF register
is read, a receiver overflow has occurred and bit
SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) is set and the byte in the
SSPSR is lost.
The SSPADD register holds the slave address. In
10-bit mo de, the user needs to write the high byte of the
address (1111 0 A9 A8 0). Following the high byte
address match, the low byte of the address needs to be
loaded (A7:A0).

9.3.1 SLAVE MODE
In Slave mod e, the SCL and SDA pins mu st be co nfi g-
ured as input s (TRISC<4 :3> set). The SSP module will
override the input state with the output data when
required (slave-transmitter).
When an address is matched or the data transfer after
an add res s mat ch i s rece ived , th e ha rdw are au tom ati-
cally will generate the Acknowledge (ACK) pulse, and
then loa d the SSPBUF re gister wi th th e re ce ive d valu e
currently in the SSPSR register.
There are certain conditions that will cause the SSP
modul e not to give thi s ACK pulse. These are if either
(or both):
a) The buffer full bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) was set
before the transfer was received.
b) The overflow b it SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) was set
before the transfer was received.
In this case, the SSPSR register value is not loaded
into the SSPBUF, but bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set.
Table 9-3 shows what happens when a data transfer
byte is received, given the status of bits BF and
SSPOV. The shaded cells show the condition where
user s oftw are d id no t prope rly c lear th e ove rflow condi-
tion. Flag bit BF i s clear ed by reading the SSPBUF reg-
ister while bit SSPOV is cleared through software.
The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and
low time for proper operation. The high and low times
of the I2C specification as well as the requirement of
the SSP module is shown in timing parameter #100
and parameter #101.
9.3.1.1 Addressing
Once the SSP module has been enabled, it waits for a
START conditi on to occu r. Following the START condi-
tion, the 8-bits are shifted into the SSPSR register. All
incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the
clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is
compared to the value of the SSPADD register. The
address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth
clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF
and SSPOV bits are clear, the following events occur:
a) The SSPSR register value is loaded into the
SSPBUF register.
b) The buffer full bit, BF is set.
c) An ACK pulse is generated.
d) SSP interrupt flag bit, SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set
(inter rupt is generated if en abled) - on the falling
edge of the ninth SCL pulse.
In 10-bit Address mode, two address bytes need to be
received by the slave (Figure 9-8). The five Most Sig-
nificant bits (MSbs) of the first address byte specify if
this is a 10-bit address. Bit R/W (SSPSTAT<2>) must
specif y a w rite so t he s lav e d evi ce wi ll rece iv e the sec-
ond address byte. For a 10-bit address the first byte
would equal 1111 0 A9 A8 0, where A9 and A8 are
the two MSbs of the address. The sequence of events
for a 10-bit address is as follows, with steps 7- 9 for
slave-transmitter:
1. Receive first (high) byte of Address (bits SSPIF,
BF, and bit UA (SSPSTAT<1>) are set).
2. Update the SSPADD register with second (low)
byte of Address (clears bit UA and releases the
SCL line).
3. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and
clear flag bit SSPIF.
4. Receive second (low) byte of Address (bits
SSPIF, BF, and UA are set).
5. Update the SSPADD register wi th the firs t (hig h)
byte of Ad dress , if mat ch rele ases SCL line, this
will clear bit UA.
6. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and
clear flag bit SSPIF.
7. Receive Repeated START condition.
8. Receive first (high) byte of Address (bits SSPIF
and BF are set).
9. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and
clear flag bit SSPIF.

9.3.1.2 Reception
When the R/W bit of the address byte is clear and an
address match occurs, the R/W bit of the SSPSTAT
register is cleare d. The re ceived ad dress is loa ded in to
the SSPBUF register.
When the address byte overflow condition exists, then
no Acknowledge (ACK) pulse is given. An overflow
condition is defined as either bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) is
set, or bit SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) is set.
An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer
byte. F lag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) mu st be cle ared in so ft-
ware. The SSPSTAT register is used to determine the
status of the byte.
FIGURE 9-17: I2C WAVEFORMS FOR RECEPTION (7-BIT ADDRESS)
9.3.1.3 Transmission
When the R/W bit of the incoming address byte is set
and an address match occurs, the R/W bit of the
SSPSTAT register is set. The received address is
loaded into the SSPBUF register. The ACK pulse will
be sent on the ninth bit, and pin RC3/SCK/SCL is held
low. The transmit data must be loaded into the
SSPBUF register, which also loads the SSPSR regis-
ter . The n, pin RC3/SCK/SCL shou ld be enabled by set-
ting bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). The master must monitor
the SCL p in p rior t o as se rting anothe r cl oc k pu ls e. Th e
slave devices may be holding off the master by stretch-
ing the clock. The eight data bits are shifted out on the
falling edge of the SCL input. This ensures that the
SDA signal is valid during the SCL high time
(Figure 9-18).
An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer
byte. Flag bit SSPIF must be cleared in software, and
the SSPSTAT register is used to determine the status
of the byte. Flag bit SSPIF is set on the falling edge of
the ninth clock pulse.
As a slave-transmitter, the ACK pulse from the mas-
ter-receiver is latched on the rising edge of the ninth
SCL input pulse. If the SDA line was high (not ACK),
then the data transfer is complete. When the ACK is
latched by the slave, the slave logic is reset and the
slave then monitors for another occurrence of the
START bit. If the SDA lin e was low (ACK), the t rans mit
data must be loaded into the SSPBUF register, which
also loads the SSPSR register. Then, pin
RC3/SCK/SCL should be enabled by setting bit CKP.

9.3.2 MASTER MODE
Master mode of operation is supported, in firmware,
using interrupt generation on the detection of the
START and STOP conditions. The STOP (P) and
START (S) bit s are cle ared from a RESET, or when the
SSP module is disabled. The STOP and START bits
will toggle based on the START and STOP conditions.
Control of the I 2C bus may be taken when the P bit is
set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear.
In Master mode, the SCL and SDA lines are manipu-
lated by cleari ng the c orresp onding TRISC<4 :3> bit(s ).
The output level is always low, irrespective of the
value(s ) i n PO R T C <4:3 >. So w h en tran sm itti ng da t a, a
1 data bit must have the TRISC<4> bit set (input) and
a 0 data bit mus t hav e th e TRISC <4 > bit clea red (o ut-
put). The same scenario is true for the SCL line with the
TRISC< 3> bit.
The following events will cause SSP Interrupt Flag bit,
SSPIF, to be set (SSP Interrupt if enabled):
START condition
STOP condition
Data transfer byte transmitted/received
Master mode of operation can be done with either the
Slave mode idle (SSPM3:SSPM0 = 1011), or with the
slave active. When both Master and Slave modes are
enabled, the software needs to differentiate the
source(s) of the interrupt.
9.3.3 MULTI-MASTER MODE
In Multi-Master mode, the interrupt generation on the
detection of the START and STOP conditions allows
the determination of when the bus is free. The STOP
(P) and START (S) bits are cleared from a RESET or
when the SSP module is disabled. The STOP and
START bit s wil l tog gle ba sed on the START and ST O P
conditions. Control of the I 2C bus may be taken when
bit P (SSPSTAT<4>) is set, or the bus is idle, with bo th
the S an d P b its cl e ar. Wh en t he bu s is b us y, enabl i ng
the SSP interrupt will generate the interrupt when the
STOP condition occurs.
In multi-master operation, the SDA line must be moni-
tored to see if the signal level is the expected output
level. This check only needs to be done when a high
level is output. If a high level is e xpect ed and a low level
is present, the device needs to release the SDA and
SCL lines (set TRISC<4:3>). There are two stages
where this arbitration can be lost, they are:
Address Transfer
Data Tr ansfe r
When the slav e log ic is enab led, th e sla ve co ntinue s to
receive . If arbitrati on was l ost during the address trans-
fer stage, communication to the device may be in
progress. If addressed, an ACK pulse will be gener-
ated. If arbitration was lost during the data transfer
stage, the device will need to re-transfer the data at a
later time.

10.0 ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL
CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE
The Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Converter module has five
inputs.
The ana log inpu t char ges a sample and hol d ca pac itor.
The output of th e sample and hold capacitor is the input
into the c on ve rter. The con ve rter then gen era t es a dig-
ital result o f this analog level vi a successive approxima-
tion. The A/D conversion of the analog input signal
results in a corresponding 10-bit digital number. The
A/D module has high and low voltage reference input,
that is software selecta ble to som e combination of VDD,
VSS, RA2 or RA3.
The A/D converter has a unique feature of being able
to operate while the device is in SLEEP mode. To
oper at e in SL EE P, the A/D cl oc k must b e de ri ve d fr om
the A/Ds internal RC oscillator.
The A/D module has four registers. These registers
are:
A/D Result High Register (ADRESH)
A/D Result Low Register (ADRESL)
A/D Control Register0 (ADCON0)
A/D Control Register1 (ADCON1)
The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 10-1, con-
trols the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1
register, shown in Register 10-2, configures the func-
tions of the port pins. The port pins can be configured
as analog inputs (RA3 can also be the voltage refer-
ence), or as digital I/O.

10.1 A/D Acquisition Requirements
For the A/D converter to meet its specified accuracy,
the charge holding capacitor (CHOLD) must be allowed
to fully charge to the input channel voltage level. The
analog input model is shown in Figure 10-2. The
source impedance (RS) and the internal sampling
switch (RSS) impedance directly affect the time
required to charge the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling
switch (RSS) impedanc e varie s over the device vol tag e
(VDD), see Figure 10-2. The maximum recom-
mended im pedance for ana log sources is 10 k . As
the impedance is decreased, the acquisition time may
be decreased. After the analog input channel is
selected (changed), this acquisition must be done
before the conversion can be started.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time,
Equation 10-1 may be used. This equation assumes
that 1/2 LSb error is used (1024 st eps for the A/D). The
1/2 LSb er ror is the ma ximu m error allow ed for the A/D
to meet its specified resolution.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time, TACQ, see
the PICmicro Mid-Range Reference Manual
(DS33023).

10.2 Selecting the A/D Conversion
Clock
The A/D conversion time per bit is defined as TAD. The
A/D conversion requires a minimum 12TAD per 10-bit
conversion. The source of the A/D conversion clock is
software selected. The four possible options for TAD
are:
2TOSC
8TOSC
32TOSC
Internal A/D module RC oscillator
For correct A/D conversions, the A/D conversion clock
(TAD) must be selected to ensure a minimum TAD time
of 1.6 µs.
Table 10-1 shows the resultant TAD tim es de ri ve d f ro m
the device operating frequencies and the A/D clock
source selected.
TABLE 10-1: TAD vs. MAXIMUM DEVICE OPERATING FREQUENCIES (ST ANDARD DEVICES (C))
AD Clock Source (TAD) Maximum Device Frequency

2TOSC 00 1.25 MHz
8TOSC 01 5 MHz
32TOSC 10 20 MHz
RC(1 , 2, 3) 11 (Note 1)
Note 1: The R C source has a typical TAD time of 4 µs, but can vary between 2-6 µs.
2: When the device frequencies are greater than 1 MHz, the RC A/D conversion clock source is only recom-
mended for SLEEP operation.
3: For extended voltage devices (LC), please refer to the Electrical Specifications section.

10.3 Configuring Analog Port Pins
The AD CO N1 and TR I S re gis te r s co ntro l the oper atio n
of the A/D port pins. The port pins that are desired as
analog inputs must have their corresponding TRIS bits
set (input ). If the TRIS bit is cleared (out put) , the digit al
output level (VOH or VOL) will be converted.
The A/D operation is independent of the state of the
CHS<2:0> bits and the TRIS bits.
10.4 A/D Conversions
Clearing the GO/DONE bit during a conversion will
abort the current conversion. The A/D result register
pair will NOT be updated with the partially completed
A/D conversion sample. That is, the ADRESH:ADRESL
registers will continue to contain the value of the last
completed conversion (or the last value written to the
ADRESH:ADRESL registers). Af ter the A/D conversion
is aborted, a 2TAD wait is required before the next
acquisition is started. After this 2TAD wait, acquisition
on the selected channel is automatically started. After
this, the GO/DONE bit can be set to start the
conversion.
In Figure 10-3, after the GO bit is se t, the first ti me seg-
ment has a minimum of TCY and a maxi mum of TAD.
FIGURE 10-3: A/D CONVERSION TAD CYCLES
10.4.1 A/D RESULT REGISTERS
The ADRESH:ADRESL register pair is the location
where the 10-bit A/D result is loaded at the completion
of the A/D convers ion. Thi s register pair is 16-bit s wide.
The A/D mo dule gives the flexi bility to lef t or right justif y
the 10-bit result in the 16-bit result register. The A/D
Format Select bit (ADFM) controls this justification.
Figure 10-4 sh ows the ope ration of the A/D result jus ti-
fication. The extra bits are loaded with 0s. When an
A/D result will not overwrite these locations (A/D dis-
able), thes e regi sters ma y be used as two general pur-
pos e 8-bit registers.
Note 1: When reading the port register, any pin
configu red as an a nalog inpu t ch annel wil l
read as cleared (a low level). Pins config-
ured as digital inputs will convert an ana-
log input. Analog levels on a digitally
configu r ed inp ut w i ll not af fect the conv er-

2: Analog le vels on any pin that is defined as
a digital input (including the AN<4:0>
pins), may cause the input buffer to con-
sume current that is out of the device
specifications.
Note: The GO/DONE bit should NOT be set in
the same instruction that turns on the A/D.

10.5 A/D Operation During SLEEP
The A/D module can operate during SLEEP mode. This
requires that the A/D clock source be set to RC
(ADCS<1:0> = 11). When the RC clock source is
selected, the A/D module waits one instruction cycle
before starting the conversion. This allows the SLEEP
instruction to be executed, which eliminates all digital
switchi ng noise fro m the conv ersion. Whe n the conver-
sion i s comple ted, the GO /DONE bit will be cleared and
the result loaded into the ADRES register. If the A/D
interrupt is enabled, the device will wake-up from
SLEEP. If the A/D interrupt is no t enabled, the A/D mod-
ule will then be turned off, although the ADON bit will
remain set.
When the A/D clock sour ce is anoth er clock optio n (not
RC), a SLEEP instruction will ca use the present conver-
sion t o be aborte d and the A/D mod ule to be turned of f,
though the ADON bit will remain set.
Turnin g off the A/D places the A/D mo du le in its low est
current consumption state.
10.6 Effects of a RESET
A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET
state. This forces the A/D module to be turned off, and
any conversion is aborted. All A/D input pins are con-
figured as analog inputs.
The value that is in the ADRESH:ADRESL registers is
not modified for a Power-on Reset. The
ADRESH:ADRESL registers w ill cont ain unkno wn data
after a Power-on Reset.

Note: For the A/D module to operate in SLEEP,

sion to occur during SLEEP, ensure the

11.0 LCD MODULE
The LCD module generates the timing control to drive
a sta tic or multipl exed LCD p anel, with supp ort for up to
32 segments multiplexed with up to four commons. It
also provides control of the LCD pixel data.
The interface to the module consists of 3 control regis-
ters (LCDCON, LCDSE, and LCDPS), used to define
the timin g requirem ents of the LCD panel and up to 16
LCD data registers (LCD00-LCD15) that represent the
array of the pixel data. In normal operation, the control
registers are configured to match the LCD panel being
used. Prim arily, the initializa tion info rmatio n consi st s of
select ing the numbe r of com mons requ ired by the LC D
panel, and then spe ci fyi ng the LCD fram e clo ck rate to
be used by the panel.
Once the module is initialized for the LCD panel, the
indivi dual b it s of the LCD dat a re gisters are c leared /set
to represent a clear/dark pixel, respectively.
Once the module is configured, the LCDEN
(LCDCON <7>) bit is used to enable or dis able the LCD
module. The LCD panel can also operate during
SLEEP by clearing the SLPEN (LCDCON<6>) bit.
Figure 11-2 through Figure 11-5 provides waveforms
for static, half-duty cycle, one-third-duty cycle, and
quarter-duty cycl e dr ive s.

11.1 LCD Timing
The LCD module has 3 possible clock source inputs
and supports static, 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4 multiplexing.
11.1.1 TIMING CLOCK SOURCE
SELECTION
The clock sources for the LCD timing generation are:
Internal R C oscil la tor
Timer1 osci llat or
System clock divided by 256
The first timing source is an internal RC oscillator which
runs at a nominal frequency of 14 kHz. This oscillator
provides a lower speed clock which may be used to
continue running the LCD while the processor is in
SLEEP. The RC oscillator will power-down when it is
not selected or when the LCD module is disabled.
The second source is the Timer1 external oscillator.
This os cilla tor p rovide s a lowe r sp eed cl ock whi ch ma y
be used to co ntinue runn ing the LCD w hil e the pro ces -
sor is in SLEEP. It is assumed that the frequency pro-
vided on this oscillator will be 32 kHz. To use the
Timer1 oscillator as a LCD module clock source, it is
only necessary to set the T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>) bit.
The third source is the system clock divided by 256.
This divider ratio is chosen to provide about 32 kHz
output when the external oscillator is 8 MHz. The
divide r is no t progra mmab le. Inste ad the LCDPS re gis-
ter is used to set the LCD frame clock rate.
All of the cl ock s ource s ar e sel ected with bit s CS1 :CS0
(LCDCON<3:2>). Refer to Register 11-1 for details of
the register programming.

11.2 LCD Interrupt s
The LCD timing generation provides an interrupt that
defines the LCD frame timing. This interrupt can be
used to co ord ina te the writin g of th e pi xe l data with the
start of a new frame. Writing pixel data at the frame
boundary allows a visual ly crisp transit ion of the image.
This in terrupt c an als o be us ed to s ynchroni ze externa l
events to the LCD. For example, the interface to an
external segment driver, such as a Microchip AY0438,
can be synchronized for segment data update to the
LCD frame.
A new frame is defined to begin at the leading edge of
the COM0 common signal. The interrupt will be set
immediately after the LCD controller completes
accessing all pixel data required for a frame. This will
occur at a fixed interval before the frame boundary
(TFINT), as shown in Figure 11-7. The LCD controller
will begin to access data for the next frame within the
interval fro m th e i nte rrupt to w h en the c ont roll er begins
to access data after the interrupt (TFWR). New data
must be written within TFWR, as this is when the LCD
controller will begin to access the data for the next
frame.

ment signals.

11.4 Operation During SLEEP
The LCD module can operate during SLEEP. The
selection is controlled by bit SLPEN (LCDCON<6>).
Setting the SLPEN bit allows the LCD module to go to
SLEEP. Clearing the SLPEN bit allows the module to
continue to operate during SLEEP.
If a SLEEP instructio n is executed an d SLPEN = 1, the
LCD module will cease all functions and go into a very
low current consumption mode. The module will stop
operation immediately and drive the minimum LCD
voltage on both segment and common lines. Figure
1 1-8 shows this o peration. To ensure that the LCD com-
ple tes th e fram e, the SLEEP instruction sh ould be exe-
cuted immediately after a LCD frame boundary. The
LCD interrupt can be used to determine the frame
boundary. See Section 11.2 for the formulas to calcu-
late the delay.
If a SLEEP instruc tion is exec uted and SLPEN = 0, the
module will continue to display the current contents of
the LCDD registers. To allow the module to continue
operation while in SLEEP, the clock source must be
either the internal RC oscillator or Timer1 external
oscillator. While in SLEEP, the LCD data cannot be
changed. The LCD module current consumption will
not decrease in this mode, however, the overall con-
sumpt ion of t he devi ce will be lowe r due to shut-d own
of the core and other peripheral functions.

11.5 Voltage Generation
There are two methods for LCD voltage generation:
internal charge pump, or external resistor ladder.
11.5.1 CHARGE PUMP
The LCD charge pump is shown in Figure 11-9. The
1.0V - 2.3V regulator will establish a stable base volt-
age from the varying battery voltage. This regulator is
adjustable through the range by connecting a variable
external res ist or f rom VLCD AD J to g r oun d. T he p ote n-
tiometer provides contrast adjustment for the LCD. This
base voltage is connected to VLCD1 on the charge
pump. The charge pump boosts VLCD1 into VLCD2 =
2*VLCD1 and VLCD3 = 3 * VLCD1. When the charge
pump is not operating, Vlcd3 will be internally tied to
VDD. See the Electrical Specifications section for

12.0 SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE
CPU
What sets a microcontroller apart from other proces-
sors are special circuits to deal with the needs of real
time appl ications. The PIC16CXXX famil y has a host of
such features, intended to maximize system reliability,
minimize cost through elimination of external compo-
nent s, provide p ower saving opera ting modes an d offer
code protection. These are:
Oscillator Selection
RESET
- Power-on Reset (POR)
- Power-up Timer (PWRT)
- Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
- Brown-out Reset (BOR)
Interrupts
Watchdog Ti mer (WDT)
SLEEP
Code Protection
ID Locations
In-Circuit Serial Programming
The PIC16CXXX has a Watchdog Ti mer which can be
shut-off only through configuration bits. It runs off its
own RC oscillator for added reliability.
There are two timers that offer necessary delays on
power-up. One is the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST),
intended to keep the chip in RESET until the crystal
oscillator is stable. The other is the Power-up Timer
(PWRT), which provides a fixed delay of 72 ms (nomi-
nal) on power-up only, designed to keep the part in
RESET while the power supply stabilizes. With these
two tim ers on-chip, most app lic ati ons ne ed no ext erna l
RESET circuitry.
SLEEP mode is designed to offer a very low current
power-down mode. The user can wake-u p from SLEEP
through ex ternal RESET, W atchdo g T imer W ake-up, or
through an interrupt.
Several oscillator options are also made available to
allow the part to fit the application. The RC oscillator
option saves system cost, while the LP crystal option
saves power. A set of configuration bits are used to
select various options.
12.1 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 in pro-
gram memory location 2007h.
The user will note that address 2007h is beyond the user
program memory s pace and can be accessed only dur-
ing programming.

12.2 Oscillator Configurations
12.2.1 OSCILLATOR TYPES
The PIC16CXXX can be operated in four different oscil-
lator modes. The user can program two configuration
bits (FOSC1 and FOSC0) to select one of these four
modes:
LP Low Power Crystal
XT Crystal/Resonator
HS High Speed Crystal/Resonator
RC Resistor/Capacitor
12.2.2 CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR/CERAMIC
RESONATORS
In XT, LP, or HS modes a crystal or ceramic resonator
is connected to the OSC1/CLKIN and OSC2/CLKOUT
pins to establish oscillation (Figure 12-1). The
PIC16CXXX os cillator des ign requ ires the use of a p ar-
allel cut crystal. Use of a series cut crystal may give a
frequency out of the crystal manufacturers specifica-
tions. When in XT, LP, or HS modes, the device can
have an external clock source to drive the
OSC1/CLKIN pin (Figure 12-2).

12.2.3 EXTERNAL CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
CIRCUIT
Eith er a p repa ck ag ed o sc il l ato r can b e us e d, or a s i m-
ple oscillator circuit with TTL gates can be built. Pre-
packaged oscillators provide a wide operating range
and better stability. A well designed crystal oscillator
will provide good performance with TTL gates. Two
types o f crys tal oscil lator c ircuit s can be use d: one w ith
series resonance, or one with parallel resonance.
Figure 12-3 shows implementation of a parallel reso-
nant osc illato r circu it. The ci rcuit i s desi gned to u se the
fundamental frequency of the crystal. The 74AS04
inverter performs the 180-de gree phase shift that a p ar-
allel oscillator requires. The 4.7 k resistor provides
the negative feedback for stability. The 10 k potenti-
ometer biases the 74AS04 in the linear region. This
could be used for external oscillator designs.
FIGURE 12-3: EXTERNAL PARALLEL
RESONANT CRYSTAL
OSCILLATOR CIRCUIT
Figure 12-4 shows a series resonant oscillator circuit.
This circ uit is also designe d to use the fundame ntal fre-
quency of the crystal. The inverter performs a
180-degree phase shift in a series resonant oscillator
circuit . The 330 k resistors provide the negative feed-
back to bias the inverters in their linear region.
FIGURE 12-4: EXTERNAL SERIES
RESONANT CRYSTAL
OSCILLATOR CIRCUIT
12.2.4 RC OSCILLATOR
For timing insensitive applications, the RC device
option off ers ad diti ona l cos t sav in gs . The RC osc il lat or
frequenc y is a fun ction of the suppl y vo ltage, the resis -
tor (REXT) and capacitor (CEXT) values, a nd the o perat-
ing temperature. In addition to this, the oscillator
frequency will vary from unit to unit due to normal pro-
cess parameter variation. Furthermore, the difference
in lead frame capacitance between package types will
also affect the oscillation frequency, especially for low
CEXT values. The user also needs to take into account
vari ati on d ue to to ler anc e of e xte rn al R and C c ompo -
nents used. Figure 12-5 shows how the R/C combina-
tion is connected to the PIC16CXXX. For REXT values
below 2.2 k, the oscillator operation may become
unst able, or stop completel y . For very high REXT value s
(e.g. 1 M), the oscillator becomes sensitive to noise,
humidity and leakage. Thus, we recommend to keep
REXT between 3 k and 100 k.
Although the oscillator will operate with no external
capacit or (C EXT = 0 pF), we recommend using values
above 2 0 p F for noi se an d s t ability reas on s. With no or
small external capacitance, the oscillation frequency
can vary dramatically due to changes in external
capa citance s, such as PCB trac e capacit ance, or p ack-
age lead frame capacitance.
See chara cterization dat a for desired dev ice for RC fre-
quency variation from part to part, due to normal pro-
cess vari ation. The va riation is lar ger for larger R (since
leakage current v ariation w ill aff ect RC freque ncy more
for large R) and for smaller C (since variation of input
capacitance will affect RC frequency more).
See characterization data for desired device for varia-
tion of oscillator frequency, due to VDD for given
REXT/CEXT values, as well as frequency variation due
to operating temperature for given R, C, and VDD
values.
The oscillator frequency, divided by 4, is available on
the OSC2/CLKOUT pin, and can be used for test pur-
poses or to synchronize other logic (see Figure 1-2 for
waveform).

12.3 RESET
The PIC16C9XX differentiates between various kinds
of RESET:
Power-on Reset (POR)
MCLR Reset during normal operation
MCLR Reset during SLEEP
WDT Reset (normal operation)
Brown-out Reset (BOR)
Some registers are not affected in any RESET condi-
tion; the ir stat us is unk nown on POR and un changed i n
any other RESET. Most other registers are reset to a
RESET state on Power-on Reset (POR), on the
MCLR and WDT Reset, and on MCLR Reset during
SLEEP. They are not affected by a WDT Wake-up,
which is viewed as the res umption of no rmal op eration.
The TO and PD b it s are set or cl eare d d iffere ntly i n di f-
ferent RESET situations, as indicated in Table 12-4.
These bi ts are used in software to determine the n ature
of the RESET. See Table 12-6 for a full description of
RESET states of all registers.
A simplif ied block diagra m of the On-Chip Rese t Circuit
is sh own in Figure 12-6.
The devices all have a MCLR noise filter in the MCLR
Reset path. The filter will detect and ignore small
pulses.
It should be noted that a WDT Reset does not drive
MCLR pin low.

12.4 Power-on Reset (POR),
Power-up Timer (PWRT),
Brown-out Reset (BOR) and
Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
12.4.1 POWER-ON RESET (POR)
A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when
VDD rise is detected (in the range of 1.5V - 2.1V). To
take advantage of the POR, just tie the MCLR pin
directly (or through a resistor) to VDD. This will elimi-
nate ext ernal RC comp onents us ually needed to create
a Power-on Reset. A maximum rise time for VDD is
spec ifie d. See Electrical Specif ications for details.
When the device starts normal operation (exits the
RESET condition), device operating parameters (volt-
age, frequency, temperature, etc.) must be met to
ensure operation. If these conditions are not met, the
device must be held in RESET until the operating con-
ditions are met.
For additional information, refer to Application Note
AN607, Power-up Trouble Shooting.
12.4.2 POWER-UP TIMER (PWRT)
The Power-up Timer provides a fixed 72 ms nominal
time-out on power-up only, from the POR. The
Power-up Timer operates on an internal RC oscillator.
The chip is kept in RESET as long as the PWRT is
active . The PWR T s ti me delay allows VDD to rise to an
acceptable level. A configuration bit is provided to
enable/disable the PWRT.
The pow er-up time dela y will vary from chip to chip due
to VDD, temperature, and process variation. See DC
parameters for details.
12.4.3 OSCILLATOR START-UP TIMER
(OST)
The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST), if enabled, pro-
vides 1024 oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delay
after the PWRT delay (if the PWRT is enabled). This
helps to ensure that the crystal oscillator or resonator
has started and stabilized.
The OST time-out is invoked only for XT, LP and HS
modes and only on Power-on Reset or wake-up from
SLEEP.
12.4.4 BROWN-OUT RESET (BOR)
The configuration bit, BOREN, can enable or disable
the Brown-out Reset circuit. If VDD falls below VBOR
(parameter D005, about 4V) for longer than TBOR
(param et er #35, about 10 0µS), the brown-out s ituatio n
will reset the device. If VDD falls below VBOR for less
than TBOR, a RESET may not occur.
Once the brown-out occurs, the device will remain in
Brown-out Reset until VDD rises above VBOR. The
Power-up Timer, if enabled, then keeps the device in
RESET for TPWRT (parameter #33, about 72mS). If
VDD should fall below VBOR during TPWRT, the
Brown-out Reset process will restart when VDD rises
above VBOR with the Power-up Timer Reset. The
Power-up Timer is enabled separately from Brown-out
Reset.
12.4.5 TIME-OUT SEQUENCE
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows:
First, PWRT time-out is invoked after the POR time
delay has expired. Then, OST is activated. The total
time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration and
the st a tus of the PWRT. For exampl e, in R C m ode wi th
the PWRT disabled, there will be no time-out at all.
Figure 12-7, Figure 12-8, and Figure 12-9 depict
time-out sequences on power-up.
Since the time-outs occur from the PO R pulse, if MCLR
is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire. Then
bringing MCLR high will begin execution immediately
(Figure 12-8). This is useful for testing purposes or to
synchronize more than one PIC16CXXX device oper-
ating in parallel.
Table 12-5 shows the RESET conditions for some spe-
cial function registers, while Table 12-6 shows the
RESET conditio ns for all the regist ers .
12.4.6 POWER CONTROL/STATUS
REGISTER (PCON)
The Power Control/Status Register, PCON, has up to
two bits depending upon the device.
Bit0 is Brown-out Reset Status bit, BOR. Bit BOR is
unknown on a Power-on Reset. It must then be set by
the user and checked on subsequent RESETS to see if
bit BOR cleared, indicating a BOR occurred. When the
Brown-out Reset is disabled, the state of the BOR bit is
unpredictable and is, therefore, not valid at any time.
Bit1 is Power-on Reset Status bit POR. It is cl eare d on
a Power-on Reset and unaffected otherwise. The user
must set this bit following a Power-on Reset.

12.5 Interrupts
The PIC16C925/926 family has nine sources of
interrupt:
External int errup t RB0/INT
TMR0 overflo w interru pt
PORTB change interrupts
(pins RB7:RB4)
A/D Interrupt
TMR1 overflo w interru pt
TMR2 matches period interrupt
CCP1 interrupt
Synchron ou s seri al port int errup t
LCD module inter rupt
The interru pt control register (INTCON) reco rds individ-
ual interrupt requests in flag bits. It also has individual
and global interrupt enable bits.
A global interrupt enable bit, GIE (INTCON<7>),
enables (if set) all unmasked interrupts, or disables (if
cleared ) all i nterrupt s. W hen bit GIE i s enab led, a nd an
interrupts flag bit and mask bit are s et, the int errupt wil l
vector immediately. Individual interrupts can be dis-
abled through their corresponding enable bits in vari-
ous registers. Individual interrupt bits are set,
regardless of the status of the GIE bit. The GIE bit is
cleared on RESET.
The return from interrupt instruction, RETFIE, exits
the interrupt routine as well as sets the GIE bit, which
re-enables interrupts.
The RB0/INT pin interrupt, the RB port change interrupt
and the TMR 0 over flo w interru pt f lag s are co nt a ine d in
the INTCON register.
The peripheral interrupt flags are contained in the spe-
cial function register, PIR1. The corresponding inter-
rupt enable bits are contained in special function
register, PIE1, and the peripheral interr upt enabl e bit is
contained in spe ci al func ti on r egi ste r, INTCON.
When an interrupt is responded to, the GIE bit is
cleared to disable any further interrupts, the return
address is pu sh ed o nto the s t ac k and the PC is lo ade d
with 0004h. Once in the Interrupt Service Routine the
source(s) of the interrupt can be determined by polling
the i nterr upt flag bits. T he inte rrupt flag bi t(s) mu st be
cleared in software before re-enabling interrupts to
avoid recursive interrupts.
For external interrupt events, such as the RB0/INT pin
or RB Port change interrupt, the interrupt latency will be
three or four instruction cycles. The exact latency
depends when the interrupt event occurs
(Fig ure 12-11 ). Th e la tenc y is t he s ame f or one or two
cycle instructions. Individual interrupt flag bits are set,
regardless of the status of their corresponding mask
bit, PEIE bit, or the GIE bit.

les s of the status of their corresponding
mask bit, or the GIE bit.

FIGURE 12-11: INT PIN INTERRUPT TIMING
12.5.1 INT INTERRUPT
External interrupt on RB0/INT pin is edge triggered:
either rising if bit INTEDG (OPTION_REG<6>) is set,
or fall ing , if th e IN TEDG bit i s cl ea r. When a va li d edg e
appears on the RB0/INT pin, flag bit INTF
(INTCON<1>) is set. This interrupt can be disabled by
clearing enable bit INTE (INTCON<4>). Flag bit INTF
must be cleared in software in the Interrupt Service
Routin e before re-enablin g this interrupt. The INT in ter-
rupt can wake-up the processor from SLEEP, if bit INTE
was set prior to going into SLEEP. The status of global
interrupt enable bit, GIE, decides whether or not the
processor branches to the interrupt vector following
wake-up. See Section 12.8 for details on SLEEP mode.
12.5.2 TMR0 INTERRUPT
An overflow (FFh 00h) in the TMR0 register will set
flag bit, TMR0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit,
TMR0IE (INTCON<5>) (Section 5.0).
12.5.3 PORTB INTCON CHAN GE
An input change on PORTB<7:4> sets flag bit RBIF
(INTCON<0>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled
by setting/clearing enable bit, RBIE (INTCON<4>)
(Section 4.2).

12.6 Context Saving During Interrupts
During an interrupt, only the return PC value is saved
on the stack. T ypically , users may wish to save key reg-
isters during an interrupt, i.e., the W and STATUS reg-
isters. This will have to be implemented in software.
Exampl e 12 -1 stores an d restores the STA TU S, W , and
PCLATH registers. The register, W_TEMP, must be
defined in each bank and must be defined at the same
offset from the bank base address (i.e., if W_TEMP is
defined at 0x20 in bank 0, it must also be defined at
0xA0 in bank 1).
The code in the example:
e) Stores the W register.
f) Stores the STATUS register in bank 0.
g) Stores the PCLATH register.
h) Executes the ISR code.
i) Restores the STATUS register (and bank select
bit).
j) Restores the W and PCLATH registers.
EXAMPLE 12-1: SAVING STATUS, W, AND PCLATH REGISTERS IN RAM
MOVWF W_TEMP ;Copy W to TEMP register, could be bank one or zero
SWAPF STATUS,W ;Swap status to be saved into W
CLRF STATUS ;bank 0, regardless of current bank, Clears IRP,RP1,RP0
MOVWF STATUS_TEMP ;Save status to bank zero STATUS_TEMP register
MOVF PCLATH, W ;Only required if using pages 1, 2 and/or 3
MOVWF PCLATH_TEMP ;Save PCLATH into W
CLRF PCLATH ;Page zero, regardless of current page

12.7 W atchdog Ti mer (WDT)
The W atchdog T imer is a free running on-chip RC oscil-
lator, whi ch does not require any ex ternal comp onent s.
This RC oscillator is separate from the RC oscillator of
the OSC1/CLKIN pin. That means that the WDT will
run, even if the clock on the OSC1/CLKIN and
OSC2/CLKOUT pins of the device has been stopped,
for example, by execution of a SLEEP instructi on. Dur-
ing normal operation, a WDT time-out generates a
device RESET (W atchdog T imer Reset). If the device is
in SLEEP mode, a WDT time-out causes the device to
wake-up and continue with normal operation (Watch-
dog Timer Wake-up). The WDT can be permanently
disabled by clearing configuration bit WDTE
(Section 12.1).
12.7.1 WDT PERIOD
The WDT ha s a nomi nal time -out peri od of 18 ms (wi th
no presca ler) . The tim e-o ut peri ods vary wi th tem pe ra-
ture, VDD and process variations from part to part (see
DC specs). If longer time-out periods are desired, a
prescaler with a division ratio of up to 1:128 can be
assign ed to the WD T un der so ftw are c ontrol , by w ritin g
to the OPTION register. Thus, time-out periods up to
2.3 seconds can be realized.
The CLRWDT and SLEEP instructions clear the WDT
and the postscaler, if assigned to the WDT, prevent it
from timing out and generating a device RESET
condition.
The TO bit in the STATUS regi ster will be cleare d upon
a Watchdog Timer time-out.
12.7.2 WDT PROGRAMMING
CONSIDERATIONS
It should also be taken into account that under worst
case conditions (VDD = Min., Temperature = Max., and
Max. WDT prescaler) it may take several seconds
before a WDT time-out occurs.
FIGURE 12-12: WATCHDOG TIMER BLOCK DIAGRAM
FIGURE 12-13: SUMMARY OF WATCHDOG TIMER REGISTERS
Note: When a CLRWDT instruction is executed
and the prescaler is assigned to the WDT,

PIC16C925/926
12.8 Power-down Mode (SLEEP)
Power-down mode is entered by executing a SLEEP
instruction.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but
keep s runni ng, the PD bit (STATUS<3>) is cleared , th e
TO (STATUS<4>) bit is set, and the oscillator driver is
turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had,
before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving
high, low, or hi-impedance).
For lo west curr ent con sum pti on in this mo de, plac e all
I/O pins at either VDD, or VSS, ensure no external cir-
cuitr y is dr awing cu rrent from th e I/O pi n, powe r-dow n
the A/D, disable external clocks. Pull all I/O pins that
are hi-impeda nce inputs, high or low externally , to avoid
switching currents caused by floating inputs. The
T0CKI input should also be at VDD or VSS for lowest
current consumption. The contribution from on-chip
pull-ups on PORTB should also be considered.
The MCLR pin must be at a logic high level (VIHMC).
12.8.1 WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP
The device can wake-up from SLEEP through one of
the following events:
1. External RESET input on MCLR pin.
2. Watchdog Timer Wake-up (if WDT was
enabled).
3. Interrupt from RB0/INT pin, RB port change, or
peripheral interrupt.
External MCLR Reset will cause a device RESET. All
other events are considered a continuation of program
execut ion and c aus e a wake-up. The T O and PD bits
in the STATUS register can be used to determine the
cause of device RESET. The PD bit, which is set on
power-up is cleared when SLEEP is invoked. The TO bit
is cleared if a WDT time-out occurred (and caused
wake-up).
The follo wing periph eral interrupt s can wake the device
from SLEEP:
1. TMR1 interrupt. T im er1 must be operati ng as an
asynchronous counter.
2. SSP (START/STOP) bit detect interrupt.
3. SSP transmit or receive in Slave mode
(SPI/I2C).
4. CCP Capture mode interrupt.
5. A/D conversion (when A/D clock source is RC).
6. Special event trigger (Timer1 in Asynchronous
mode using an external clock).
7. LCD module.
Other peripherals can not generate interrupts since
during SLEEP, no on-chip Q clocks are present.
When the SLEEP instruction is being executed, the next
instruction (PC + 1) is pre-fetched. For the device to
wake-up thro ugh an interrupt eve nt, the co rres pon ding
interrupt enable bit must be set (enabled). Wake-up is
regardless of the state of the GIE bit. If the GIE bit is
clear (disabled), the device continues execution at the
ins tructi on afte r the SLEEP instruction. If the GIE bit is
set (enabled), the device executes the instru ction after
the SLEEP instruction and then branches to the inter-
rupt address (0004h). In cases where the execution of
the instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the
user should have a NOP after the SLEEP instruction.
12.8.2 WAKE-UP USING INTERRUPTS
When global interrupts are disabled (GIE cleared) and
any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit
and inte rrupt fla g bit s et, one of the fo llow ing wil l occur:
If the interrupt occurs before the execution of a
SLEEP instru ct ion , the SLEEP instruction will com-
plete as a NOP. Therefore, the WDT and WDT
pos tscaler will not be cleared, the TO bit will not
be set and PD bits will not be cle are d.
If the interrupt occurs during or after the execu-
tion of a SLEEP instructi on, the device will im me-
diately wa ke-up from SLEEP. The SLEEP
instruction will be completely executed before the
wake-up. Therefore, the WDT and WDT
pos tscaler will be cleared, the TO bit will be set
and the PD bit will be cleared.
Even if the flag bits were checked before executing a
SLEEP instruction, it may be possible for flag bits to
become set before the SLEEP inst ruction comple tes. To
determine whether a SLEEP instr uction ex ecuted , test
the PD bit. If the PD bit is set, the SLEEP instruction
was executed as a NOP.
To ensure that the WDT is cleared, a CLRWDT instru c-
tion should be executed before a SLEEP instruction.

12.9 Program Verification/Code
Protection
If the code protection bit(s) have not been pro-
grammed, the on-chip program memory can be read
out for ver ification purposes.
12.10 ID Locations
Four memory locatio ns (2000h - 2003h) are designate d
as ID locations, w here the user can store checksum or
other code identification numbers. These locations are
not accessible during normal execution, but are read-
able and writable during program/verify. It is recom-
mended that only the four Least Significant bits of the
ID location are used.
12.11 In-Circuit Serial Progra mming
PIC16CXXX microcontrollers can be serially pro-
grammed while in the end application circuit. This is
simply don e with two lines fo r clock and dat a, 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 firm-
ware to be programmed.
The device is placed into a Program/Verify mode by
holding the RB6 and RB7 pins low, while raising the
MCLR (VPP) pin from VIL to VIHH (see programming
specification). RB6 becomes the programming clock
and RB7 becomes the programming data. Both RB6
and RB7 are Schmitt Trigger inputs in this mode.
After RESET, to place the device into Program/Verify
mode, the program counter (PC) is at location 00h. A
6-bit com mand is then supp lied to the device . Depen d-
ing on the command, 14-bits of program data are then
supplied to or from the device, depending if the com-
mand was a load or a read. For complete details of
serial programming, please refer to the PIC16C6X/7X
Programming Specifications (Literature #DS30228).

13.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY
Each PIC16CXXX instruction is a 14-bit word divided
into an OPCODE which specifies the instruction type
and one or more operands which further specify the
operation of the instruction. The PIC16CXXX instruc-
tion set sum mary in Table 13- 2 list s byte-oriented, bit-
oriented, and literal and control operations.
Table 13-1 shows the opcode field descriptions.
The instruction set is highly orthogonal and is grouped
into three basi c categories :
Byte-oriented operations
Bit-oriented operations
Literal and cont rol operations
For byte-oriented i nst ruc tio ns, 'f' rep res ents a file reg-
ister designator and 'd' represents a destination desig-
nator. The file register designator specifies which file
register is to be used by the instruction.
The desti nation designator specifies where the result of
the operation is to be placed. If 'd' is zero, the result is
placed in the W register . If 'd' is one, the result is placed
in the file register specified in the instruction.
For bit-oriented instructions, 'b' represents a bit field
design ator whic h sel ec t s the numb er of the bi t affected
by the oper ation, w hile 'f' represent s the add ress of the
file in which the bit is located.
For literal and control operations, 'k' represents an
eight or eleven bit constant or literal value.
FIGURE 13-1: GENERAL FORMAT FOR
INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 13-1: OPCODE FIELD
DESCRIPTIONS
All instructions are executed within one single instruc-
tion cycle, unless a conditional test is true, or the pro-
gram counter is changed, as a result of an instruction.
In this c ase, the execu tion t a kes two i nstruc tio n cycles ,
with the second cycle executed as a NOP. O ne inst ruc-
tion cycle consists of four oscillator periods. Thus, for
an osc illator frequency of 4 M Hz, th e normal i nstructio n
executi on time is 1 µs . If a conditional test is true, or th e
program counter is changed, as a result of an instruc-
tion, the instruction execution time is 2 µs.
Table 13-2 lists the instructions recognized by the
MPASMTM assembler.
Figur e 13-1 shows t he general fo rmats th at the instruc -
tions can have.
All examples use the format 0xnn to represent a
hexadecimal number.

Note 1: When an I/O register is modified as a function of itself ( e.g., MOVF PORTB, 1), t he value used will be that value present
on the pins themselves. For example, if the data latch is 1 for a pin configured as input and is driven low by an external
device, the data will be written back with a 0.
2: If this instruction is executed on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be cleared if
assigned to the Timer0 Module.
3: If Program Counter (PC) is modified or a conditional test is true, the instruction requires two cycles. The second cycle is
executed as a NOP.

14.1 MPLAB Integrated Development
Environment Software
The MPLAB IDE software brings an ease of software
development previously unseen in the 8-bit microcon-
troller market. The MPLAB IDE is a Windows®-based
application that contains:
An interface to debugging tools
- simulator
- programmer (so ld sep ara tely )
- emulat or (sold separ atel y)
- in-circuit debugger (sold separately)
A full-featured editor
A project manager
Customizable toolbar and key mapping
A status bar
On-line help
The MPLAB IDE allows you to:
Edit your source files (either a ssembly or C)
One touch assemble (or compile) and download
to PICmicro emulator and simulator tools (auto-
matically updates all project information)
Debug us ing :
- source file s
- absolu te listing file
- machine code
The ability to use MPLAB IDE with multiple debugging
tools allows users to easily switch from the cost-
effective simulator to a full-featured emulator with
minimal retraining.
14.2 MPASM Assembler
The MPASM assembler is a full-featured universal
macro assembler for all PICmicro MCUs.
The MPASM assembler has a command line interface
and a Windows shell. It can be used as a stand-alone
application on a Windows 3.x or greater system, or it
can be us ed through MPLAB ID E. The MP ASM assem-
bler generates relocatable object files for the MPLINK
object linker, Intel® standard HEX files, MAP files to
detail memory usage and symbol reference, an abso-
lute LST file that contains source lines and generated
machine code, and a COD file for debugging.
The MPASM assembler features include:
Integration into MPLAB IDE projects.
User-defined macros to streamline assembly
code.
Conditional assembly for multi-purpose source
files.
Directives that allow complete control over the
assembly process.
14.3 MPLAB C17 and MPLAB C18
C Compilers
The MPLAB C1 7 and MP LAB C18 Code De vel op me nt
Systems are complete ANSI C compilers for
Microchips PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX family of
microc ontrollers, re spectively. These compilers provide
powerful integration capabilities and ease of use not
found with other compilers.
For easier source level debugging, the compilers pro-
vide symbol information that is compatible with the
MPLAB IDE memory display.
PIC16C925/926
DS39544A-page 134 Preliminary 2001 Microchip Technology Inc.
14.4 MPLINK Object Linker/
MPLIB Object Librari an
The MPLINK object linker combines relocatable
objects created by the MPASM assembler and the
MPLAB C17 and MPLAB C18 C compilers. It can also
link relocatable objects from pre-compiled libraries,
using directives from a linker script.
The MPLIB object librarian is a librarian for pre-
compiled code to be used with the MPLINK object
linker. When a routine from a library is called from
another source file, only the modules that contain that
routine w ill be linked in with the ap plicatio n. This allo ws
large libraries to be used efficiently in many different
applications. The MPLIB object librarian manages the
creation and modification of library files.
The MPLINK object linker features include:
Integration with MPASM assembler and MPLAB
C17 and MPLAB C18 C compilers.
Allows a ll m emo ry are as t o be defined as se ctions
to provide l ink -time flex ibi lity.
The MPLIB object librarian features include:
Easier linking because single libraries can be
included instead of many smaller files.
Helps keep code maintainable by grouping
related modules together.
Allows libraries to be created and modules to be
added, listed, replaced, deleted or extracted.
14.5 MPLAB SIM Software Simulator
The MPL AB SIM sof tware simul ator allow s code de vel-
opment in a PC-hosted environment by simulating the
PICmicro series microcontrollers on an instruction
level. On any given instruction, the data areas can be
examined or modified and stimuli can be applied from
a file, or user-defined ke y press, to an y of the pins. The
execution can be performed in single step, execute
until break, or trace mode.
The MPLAB SIM simulator fully supports symbolic debug-
ging using the MPLAB C17 and the MPLAB C18 C com-
pilers and the MP ASM assembler . The software simulator
offers the flexibility to develop and debug code outside of
the laborat ory envir onment, making it an excelle nt multi-
project software development tool.
14.6 MPLAB ICE High Performance
Universal In-Circuit Emulator with
MPLAB IDE
The MPLAB ICE universal in-circuit emulator is intended
to provide the product development engineer with a
complete microcontroller design tool set for PICmicro
microcontrollers (MCUs). Software control of the
MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator is provided by the
MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE),
which allows editi ng, buildin g, downlo ading and so urce
debugging from a single environment.
The MPLAB ICE 2000 is a full-featured emulator sys-
tem with enhanced trace, trigger and data monitoring
featur es. Interchangea ble processo r modules al low the
system to be easily reconfigured for emulation of differ-
ent processors. The universal architecture of the
MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator allows expansion to
support new PICmic ro mi cro con trol le rs.
The MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator system has been
designed as a real-time emulation system, with
advanced features that are generally found on more
expensive development tools. The PC platform and
Microsoft® Windows environment were chosen to best
make these features available to you, the end user.
14.7 ICEPIC In-Circuit Emulator
The ICEPIC low cost, in-circuit emulator is a solution
for the Microchip Technology PIC16C5X, PIC16C6X,
PIC16C7X and PIC16CXXX families of 8-bit One-
T ime-Programmable (OTP) microcontrollers. The mod-
ular sy stem can su pport dif feren t subset s of PIC16 C5X
or PIC16CXXX products through the use of inter-
changeable personality modules, or daughter boards.
The emulator is capable of emulating without target
applic atio n circ ui try bei ng pres en t.
