PIC16(L)F1784/6/7 Silicon Errata and Data Sheet Clarification

PIC16(L)F1784/6/7
PIC16(L)F1784/6/7 Family
Silicon Errata and Data Sheet Clarification
The PIC16(L)F1784/6/7 family devices that you have
received conform functionally to the current Device
Data Sheet (DS41637C), except for the anomalies
described in this document.
For example, to identify the silicon revision level
using MPLAB IDE in conjunction with a hardware
debugger:
1.
The silicon issues discussed in the following pages are
for silicon revisions with the Device and Revision IDs
listed in Table 1. The silicon issues are summarized in
Table 2.
2.
3.
The errata described in this document will be addressed
in future revisions of the PIC16(L)F1784/6/7 silicon.
4.
Note:
This document summarizes all silicon
errata issues from all revisions of silicon,
previous as well as current. Only the
issues indicated in the last column of
Table 2 apply to the current silicon
revision (C1).
5.
Data Sheet clarifications and corrections start on page
5, following the discussion of silicon issues.
The silicon revision level can be identified using the
current version of MPLAB® IDE and Microchip’s
programmers, debuggers, and emulation tools, which
are available at the Microchip corporate web site
(www.microchip.com).
TABLE 1:
Using the appropriate interface, connect the
device to the hardware debugger.
Open an MPLAB IDE project.
Configure the MPLAB IDE project for the
appropriate device and hardware debugger.
Based on the version of MPLAB IDE you are
using, do one of the following:
a) For MPLAB IDE 8, select Programmer >
Reconnect.
b) For MPLAB X IDE, select Window >
Dashboard and click the Refresh Debug
Tool Status icon (
).
Depending on the development tool used, the
part number and Device Revision ID value
appear in the Output window.
Note:
If you are unable to extract the silicon
revision level, please contact your local
Microchip sales office for assistance.
The DEVREV values for the various PIC16(L)F1784/6/7
silicon revisions are shown in Table 1.

Silicon Errata Issues
Note:
This document summarizes all silicon
errata issues from all revisions of silicon,
previous as well as current. Only the
issues indicated by the shaded column in
the following tables apply to the current
silicon revision (C1).
1. Module: Comparator
2.2 64 MHz Clock
When the Configuration bits select both PLL
enabled and INTOSC as the default system clock,
then the 64 MHz PSMC clock will not operate after
a device Reset until the IRCF<3:0> bits of the
OSCCON register are set to '111x'. The IRCF bits
can then be set to any desired value and the
64 MHz clock will continue to operate.
Work around
The comparator operation in Low-Power, LowSpeed mode (CxSP = 0) may not perform properly.
Ensure that the PLLEN bit of the CONFIG2
register is cleared when the FOSC<2:0> bits of the
CONFIG1
register
select
the
INTOSC
(FOSC<2:0> = '100').

3.1 Low-Power Sleep (PIC16F1784/6/7 devices
only)
When the device is in low-power Sleep (VREGPM
= 1 and SLEEP instruction is executed), a MCLR
Reset will be reported as a POR Reset:
When the period and falling edge sources are from
the same asynchronous input, then a race
condition may occur where the period is detected
before the falling edge. When this occurs, the
falling edge properly terminates the cycle but
subsequent rising edge inputs are ignored.
Work around
Work around
Use Normal-Power Sleep mode (VREGPM = 0).
To configure the PSMC for fixed off-time and
variable frequency, set the following:
Affected Silicon Revisions
• Period = Asynchronous feedback
• Rising Event = Synchronous @
PSMCxPH = 0
• Falling Event = Synchronous @
PSMCxDC = Off Time
• Output inverted so drive time is from falling
event to period event.

4. Module: CPU
4.1 BRA/BRW
If a BRA or BRW instruction is executed
concurrently with an interrupt event, the ISR
routine can restore the PC to an incorrect value.
Work around
Use the GOTO instruction rather than the BRA or
BRW instruction.

5.1 CCP3 Capture (PIC16(L)F1784/7 only)

6.1 MSSP SPI Mode
In Master and Slave mode, when the CKE bit is
cleared to ‘0’, then received data bytes may have

improperly received as a ‘0’.
Work around
Set both master and slave CKE bits to ‘1’.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
