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and may be superseded by updates.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

MEMORY ORGANIZATION
2.1
Program Memory Organization
2.2
The PIC16F684 has a 13-bit program counter capable
of addressing an 8k x 14 program memory space. Only
the first 2k x 14 (0000h-07FFh) for the PIC16F684 is
physically implemented. Accessing a location above
these boundaries will cause a wrap around within the
first 2k x 14 space. The Reset vector is at 0000h and
the interrupt vector is at 0004h (see Figure 2-1).
FIGURE 2-1:
PROGRAM MEMORY MAP
AND STACK FOR THE
PIC16F684
CALL, RETURN
RETFIE, RETLW
The data memory (see Figure 2-2) is partitioned into
two banks, which contain the General Purpose Registers (GPR) and the Special Function Registers (SFR).
The Special Function Registers are located in the first
32 locations of each bank. Register locations 20h-7Fh
in Bank 0 and A0h-BFh in Bank 1 are General Purpose
Registers, implemented as static RAM. Register
locations F0h-FFh in Bank 1 point to addresses
70h-7Fh in Bank 0. All other RAM is unimplemented
and returns ‘0’ when read. RP0 (Status<5>) is the bank
select bit.
RP0 = 0: → Bank 0 is selected
RP0 = 1: → Bank 1 is selected

GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER
FILE
FIGURE 2-2:
The register file is organized as 128 x 8 in the
PIC16F684. Each register is accessed, either directly
or indirectly, through the File Select Register (FSR)
(see Section 2.4 “Indirect Addressing, INDF and
FSR Registers”).
2.2.2
SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS
The Special Function Registers are registers used by
the CPU and peripheral functions for controlling the
desired operation of the device (see Table 2-1). These
registers are static RAM.
The special registers can be classified into two sets:
core and peripheral. The Special Function Registers
associated with the “core” are described in this section.
Those related to the operation of the peripheral
features are described in the section of that peripheral
feature.

2.2.2.1
Status Register
The Status register, shown in Register 2-1, contains:
• the arithmetic status of the ALU
• the Reset status
• the bank select bits for data memory (SRAM)
The Status register can be the destination for any
instruction, like any other register. If the Status register
is the destination for an instruction that affects the Z,
DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is disabled. These bits are set or cleared according to the
device logic. Furthermore, the TO and PD bits are not
writable. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the
Status register as destination may be different than
intended.
REGISTER 2-1:
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 affect
any Status bits. For other instructions not affecting any
Status bits, see the “Instruction Set Summary”.
Note 1: Bits IRP and RP1 (Status<7:6>) are not
used by the PIC16F684 and should be
maintained as clear. Use of these bits is
not recommended, since this may affect
upward compatibility with future products.
2: The C and DC bits operate as a Borrow
and Digit Borrow out bit, respectively, in
subtraction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF
instructions for examples.

Note 1: For borrow, the polarity is reversed. A subtraction is executed by adding the two’s

loaded with either the high-order or low-order bit of the source register.

PCL and PCLATH
The Program Counter (PC) is 13 bits wide. The low byte
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and
writable register. The high byte (PC<12:8>) is not
directly readable or writable and comes from PCLATH.
On any Reset, the PC is cleared. Figure 2-3 shows the
two situations for the loading of the PC. The upper
example in Figure 2-3 shows how the PC is loaded on a
write to PCL (PCLATH<4:0> → PCH). The lower example in Figure 2-3 shows how the PC is loaded during a
CALL or GOTO instruction (PCLATH<4:3> → PCH).

COMPUTED GOTO
A computed GOTO is accomplished by adding an offset
to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When performing a table read using a computed GOTO method, care
should be exercised if the table location crosses a PCL
memory boundary (each 256-byte block). Refer to the
Application Note AN556, “Implementing a Table Read”
(DS00556).
2.3.2
Indirect Addressing, INDF and
FSR Registers
The INDF register is not a physical register. Addressing
the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF
register. Any instruction using the INDF register
actually accesses data pointed to by the File Select
Register (FSR). Reading INDF itself indirectly will
produce 00h. Writing to the INDF register 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 and the IRP bit
(Status<7>), as shown in Figure 2-4.
A simple program to clear RAM location 20h-2Fh using
indirect addressing is shown in Example 2-1.
PCLATH
2.3.1
2: There are no instructions/mnemonics
called PUSH or POP. These are actions
that occur from the execution of the
CALL, RETURN, RETLW and RETFIE
instructions or the vectoring to an
interrupt address.
2.4
PCL
PC
12
Note 1: There are no Status bits to indicate stack
overflow or stack underflow conditions.
LOADING OF PC IN
DIFFERENT SITUATIONS
PCH

The stack operates as a circular buffer. This means that
after the stack has been PUSHed eight times, the ninth
push overwrites the value that was stored from the first
push. The tenth push overwrites the second push (and
so on).
EXAMPLE 2-1:
INDIRECT ADDRESSING

MOVWFFSR ;to RAM
NEXT
CLRFINDF ;clear INDF register
INCFFSR ;INC POINTER
BTFSSFSR,4;all done?
GOTONEXT ;no clear next
CONTINUE
;yes continue
STACK
The PIC16F684 Family has an 8-level x 13-bit wide
hardware stack (see Figure 2-1). 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
the event of a RETURN,
RETLW or a RETFIE
instruction execution. PCLATH is not affected by a
PUSH or POP operation.

• Selectable system clock source between external

• Two-Speed Clock Start-up mode, which minimizes latency between external oscillator start-up

Clock Source Modes
Clock source modes can be classified as external or
internal.
External Clock Modes
3.3.1
OSCILLATOR START-UP TIMER (OST)
If the PIC16F684 is configured for LP, XT or HS modes,
the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) counts 1024 oscillations from the OSC1 pin, following a Power-on Reset
(POR) and the Power-up Timer (PWRT) has expired (if
configured), or a wake-up from Sleep. During this time,
the program counter does not increment and program
execution is suspended. The OST ensures that the
oscillator circuit, using a quartz crystal resonator or
ceramic resonator, has started and is providing a stable
system clock to the PIC16F684. When switching
between clock sources a delay is required to allow the
new clock to stabilize. These oscillator delays are
shown in Table 3-1.
• External clock modes rely on external circuitry for
the clock source. Examples are oscillator modules
(EC mode), quartz crystal resonators or ceramic
resonators (LP, XT and HS modes), and
Resistor-Capacitor (RC mode) circuits.
• Internal clock sources are contained internally
within the PIC16F684. The PIC16F684 has two
internal oscillators, the 8 MHz High-Frequency
Internal Oscillator (HFINTOSC) and 31 kHz
Low-Frequency Internal Oscillator (LFINTOSC).
The system clock can be selected between external or
internal clock sources via the System Clock Selection
(SCS) bit (see Section 3.5 “Clock Switching”).
TABLE 3-1:
3.3
In order to minimize latency between external oscillator
start-up and code execution, the Two-Speed Clock
Start-up mode can be selected (see Section 3.6
“Two-Speed Clock Start-up Mode”).

static, stopping the external clock input will have the
effect of halting the device while leaving all data intact.
Upon restarting the external clock, the device will
resume operation as if no time had elapsed.

FIGURE 3-4:
LP, XT, HS MODES
The LP, XT and HS modes support the use of quartz
crystal resonators or ceramic resonators connected to
the OSC1 and OSC2 pins (Figure 3-1). The mode
selects a low, medium or high gain setting of the
internal inverter-amplifier to support various resonator
types and speed.
LP Oscillator mode selects the lowest gain setting of
the internal inverter-amplifier. LP mode current consumption is the least of the three modes. This mode is
best suited to drive resonators with a low drive level
specification, for example, tuning fork type crystals.
XT Oscillator mode selects the intermediate gain
setting of the internal inverter-amplifier. XT mode
current consumption is the medium of the three modes.
This mode is best suited to drive resonators with a
medium drive level specification, for example,
low-frequency/AT-cut quartz crystal resonators.
HS Oscillator mode selects the highest gain setting of
the internal inverter-amplifier. HS mode current
consumption is the highest of the three modes. This
mode is best suited for resonators that require a high
drive setting, for example, high-frequency/AT-cut
quartz crystal resonators or ceramic resonators.

EXTERNAL RC MODES
3.4
The External Resistor-Capacitor (RC) modes support
the use of an external RC circuit. This allows the
designer maximum flexibility in frequency choice while
keeping costs to a minimum when clock accuracy is not
required. There are two modes, RC and RCIO.
In RC mode, the RC circuit connects to the OSC1 pin.
The OSC2/CLKOUT pin outputs the RC oscillator
frequency divided by 4. This signal may be used to
provide a clock for external circuitry, synchronization,
calibration, test or other application requirements.
Figure 3-5 shows the RC mode connections.

In RCIO mode, the RC circuit is connected to the OSC1

(RA4). Figure 3-6 shows the RCIO mode connections.
RCIO MODE
In INTRC mode, the OSC1 pin is available for general
purpose I/O. The OSC2/CLKOUT pin outputs the
selected internal oscillator frequency divided by 4. The
CLKOUT signal may be used to provide a clock for
external circuitry, synchronization, calibration, test or
other application requirements.
In INTRCIO mode, the OSC1 and OSC2 pins are
available for general purpose I/O.

The RC oscillator frequency is a function of the supply
voltage, the resistor (REXT) and capacitor (CEXT)
values and the operating temperature. Other factors
affecting the oscillator frequency are:
• threshold voltage variation
• component tolerances
• packaging variations in capacitance
The output of the HFINTOSC connects to a postscaler
and multiplexer (see Figure 3-1). One of seven
frequencies can be selected via software using the
IRCF bits (see Section 3.4.4 “Frequency Select Bits
(IRCF)”).
The HFINTOSC is enabled by selecting any frequency
between 8 MHz and 125 kHz (IRCF ≠ 000) as the
system clock source (SCS = 1), or when Two-Speed
Start-up is enabled (IESO = 1 and IRCF ≠ 000).
The HF Internal Oscillator (HTS) bit (OSCCON<2>)
indicates whether the HFINTOSC is stable or not.
The user also needs to take into account variation due
to tolerance of external RC components used.

OSCTUNE Register
The HFINTOSC is factory calibrated but can be
adjusted in software by writing to the OSCTUNE
register (Register 3-1).
The OSCTUNE register has a tuning range of ±12%.
The default value of the OSCTUNE register is ‘0’. The
value is a 5-bit two’s complement number. Due to
process variation, the monotonicity and frequency step
cannot be specified.
REGISTER 3-1:
When the OSCTUNE register is modified, the
HFINTOSC frequency will begin shifting to the new
frequency. The HFINTOSC clock will stabilize within
1 ms. Code execution continues during this shift. There
is no indication that the shift has occurred.
OSCTUNE does not affect the LFINTOSC frequency.
Operation of features that depend on the LFINTOSC
clock source frequency, such as the Power-up Timer
(PWRT), Watchdog Timer (WDT), Fail-Safe Clock
Monitor (FSCM) and peripherals, are not affected by the
change in frequency.

LFINTOSC
3.4.5
The Low-Frequency Internal Oscillator (LFINTOSC) is
an uncalibrated (approximate) 31 kHz internal clock
source.
The output of the LFINTOSC connects to a postscaler
and multiplexer (see Figure 3-1). 31 kHz can be
selected via software using the IRCF bits (see
Section 3.4.4 “Frequency Select Bits (IRCF)”). The
LFINTOSC is also the frequency for the Power-up
Timer (PWRT), Watchdog Timer (WDT) and Fail-Safe
Clock Monitor (FSCM).

FREQUENCY SELECT BITS (IRCF)
The output of the 8 MHz HFINTOSC and 31 kHz
LFINTOSC connects to a postscaler and multiplexer
(see Figure 3-1). The Internal Oscillator Frequency
select bits, IRCF<2:0> (OSCCON<6:4>), select the
frequency output of the internal oscillators. One of eight
frequencies can be selected via software:
•
•
•
•
•
•

•
When switching between the LFINTOSC and the
HFINTOSC, the new oscillator may already be shut
down to save power. If this is the case, there is a 10 µs
delay after the IRCF bits are modified before the
frequency selection takes place. The LTS/HTS bits will
reflect the current active status of the LFINTOSC and
the HFINTOSC oscillators. The timing of a frequency
selection is as follows:

CLKOUT is now connected with the new clock.
HTS/LTS bits are updated as required.
Clock switch is complete.
If the internal oscillator speed selected is between
8 MHz and 125 kHz, there is no start-up delay before
the new frequency is selected. This is because the old

Clock Switching
The system clock source can be switched between
external and internal clock sources via software using
the System Clock Select (SCS) bit.
3.5.1
SYSTEM CLOCK SELECT (SCS) BIT
The System Clock Select (SCS) bit (OSCCON<0>)
selects the system clock source that is used for the
CPU and peripherals.
• When SCS = 0, the system clock source is
determined by configuration of the FOSC<2:0>
bits in the Configuration Word register (CONFIG).
• When SCS = 1, the system clock source is
chosen by the internal oscillator frequency
selected by the IRCF bits. After a Reset, SCS is
always cleared.
Note:
3.5.2
Any automatic clock switch, which may
occur from Two-Speed Start-up or
Fail-Safe Clock Monitor, does not update
the SCS bit. The user can monitor the
OSTS (OSCCON<3>) to determine the
current system clock source.
OSCILLATOR START-UP TIME-OUT
STATUS BIT
The Oscillator Start-up Time-out Status (OSTS) bit
(OSCCON<3>) indicates whether the system clock is
running from the external clock source, as defined by
the FOSC bits, or from internal clock source. In
particular, OSTS indicates that the Oscillator Start-up
Timer (OST) has timed out for LP, XT or HS modes.
3.6
Two-Speed Clock Start-up Mode
When the PIC16F684 is configured for LP, XT or HS
modes, the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) is enabled
(see Section 3.3.1 “Oscillator Start-up Timer
(OST)”). The OST timer will suspend program execution until 1024 oscillations are counted. Two-Speed
Start-up mode minimizes the delay in code execution
by operating from the internal oscillator as the OST is
counting. When the OST count reaches 1024 and the
OSTS bit (OSCCON<3>) is set, program execution
switches to the external oscillator.
3.6.1
Two-Speed Start-up mode is configured by the
following settings:
• IESO = 1 (CONFIG<10>) Internal/External Switch
Over bit.
• SCS = 0.
• FOSC configured for LP, XT or HS mode.
Two-Speed Start-up mode is entered after:
• Power-on Reset (POR) and, if enabled, after
PWRT has expired, or
• Wake-up from Sleep.
If the external clock oscillator is configured to be anything other than LP, XT or HS mode, then Two-Speed
Start-up is disabled. This is because the external clock
oscillator does not require any stabilization time after
POR or an exit from Sleep.
3.6.2
1.
2.
Two-Speed Start-up mode provides additional power
savings by minimizing the latency between external
oscillator start-up and code execution. In applications
that make heavy use of the Sleep mode, Two-Speed
Start-up will remove the external oscillator start-up
time from the time spent awake and can reduce the
overall power consumption of the device.
3.
4.
This mode allows the application to wake-up from
Sleep, perform a few instructions using the INTOSC
as the clock source and go back to Sleep without
waiting for the primary oscillator to become stable.

Fail-Safe Clock Monitor
The Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) is designed to
allow the device to continue to operate in the event of
an oscillator failure. The FSCM can detect oscillator
failure at any point after the device has exited a Reset
or Sleep condition and the Oscillator Start-up Timer
(OST) has expired.

The frequency of the internal oscillator will depend
upon the value contained in the IRCF bits
(OSCCON<6:4>). Upon entering the Fail-Safe
condition, the OSTS bit (OSCCON<3>) is automatically cleared to reflect that the internal oscillator is
active and the WDT is cleared. The SCS bit
(OSCCON<0>) is not updated. Enabling FSCM does
not affect the LTS bit.
The FSCM sample clock is generated by dividing the
INTRC clock by 64. This will allow enough time
between FSCM sample clocks for a system clock edge
to occur. Figure 3-8 shows the FSCM block diagram.
On the rising edge of the sample clock, the monitoring
latch (CM = 0) will be cleared. On a falling edge of the
primary system clock, the monitoring latch will be set
(CM = 1). In the event that a falling edge of the sample
clock occurs, and the monitoring latch is not set, a clock
failure has been detected. The assigned internal
oscillator is enabled when FSCM is enabled, as
reflected by the IRCF.
Note:
Two-Speed Start-up is automatically
enabled when the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor
mode is enabled.
Note:
Primary clocks with a frequency ≤ ~488 Hz
will be considered failed by the FSCM. A
slow starting oscillator can cause an
FSCM interrupt.
Clock
Failure
Detected
The FSCM function is enabled by setting the FCMEN
bit in the Configuration Word register (CONFIG). It is
applicable to all external clock options (LP, XT, HS, EC,
RC or IO modes).
In the event of an external clock failure, the FSCM will
set the OSFIF bit (PIR1<2>) and generate an oscillator
fail interrupt if the OSFIE bit (PIE1<2>) is set. The
device will then switch the system clock to the internal
oscillator. The system clock will continue to come from
the internal oscillator unless the external clock recovers
and the Fail-Safe condition is exited.
3.7.1
FAIL-SAFE CONDITION CLEARING
The Fail-Safe condition is cleared after a Reset, the
execution of a SLEEP instruction, or a modification of
the SCS bit. While in Fail-Safe condition, the
PIC16F684 uses the internal oscillator as the system
clock source. The IRCF bits (OSCCON<6:4>) can be
modified to adjust the internal oscillator frequency
without exiting the Fail-Safe condition.
The Fail-Safe condition must be cleared before the
OSFIF flag can be cleared.

The system clock is normally at a much higher frequency than the sample clock. The relative frequencies in

RESET OR WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP
The FSCM is designed to detect oscillator failure at
any point after the device has exited a Reset or Sleep
condition and the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) has
expired. If the external clock is EC or RC mode,
monitoring will begin immediately following these
events.
For LP, XT or HS mode, the external oscillator may
require a start-up time considerably longer than the
FSCM sample clock time, a false clock failure may be
detected (see Figure 3-9). To prevent this, the internal
oscillator is automatically configured as the system
clock and functions until the external clock is stable
(the OST has timed out). This is identical to
Two-Speed Start-up mode. Once the external oscillator is stable, the LFINTOSC returns to its role as the
FSCM source.
Note:
Due to the wide range of oscillator start-up
times, the Fail-Safe circuit is not active
during oscillator start-up (i.e., after exiting
Reset or Sleep). After an appropriate
amount of time, the user should check the
OSTS bit (OSCCON<3>) to verify the
oscillator start-up and system clock
switchover has successfully completed.

There are as many as twelve general purpose I/O pins
available. Depending on which peripherals are
enabled, some or all of the pins may not be available as
general purpose I/O. In general, when a peripheral is
enabled, the associated pin may not be used as a
general purpose I/O pin.

PORTA and the TRISA Registers
PORTA is a 6-bit wide, bidirectional port. The
corresponding data direction register is TRISA
(Register 4-2). Setting a TRISA bit (= 1) will make the
corresponding PORTA pin an input (i.e., put the
corresponding output driver in a High-impedance
mode). Clearing a TRISA bit (= 0) will make the
corresponding PORTA pin an output (i.e., put the
contents of the output latch on the selected pin). The
exception is RA3, which is input only and its TRIS bit
will always read as ‘1’. Example 4-1 shows how to
initialize PORTA.
Reading the PORTA register (Register 4-1) reads the
status of the pins, whereas writing to it will write to the
port latch. All write operations are read-modify-write
operations. Therefore, a write to a port implies that the
port pins are read, this value is modified and then
written to the port data latch. RA3 reads ‘0’ when
MCLRE = 1.

Additional Pin Functions
Every PORTA pin on the PIC16F684 has an interrupton-change option and a weak pull-up option. RA0 has
an Ultra Low-Power Wake-up option. The next three
sections describe these functions.
4.2.1
WEAK PULL-UPS
Each of the PORTA pins, except RA3, has an individually configurable internal weak pull-up. Control bits
WPUAx enable or disable each pull-up. Refer to
Register 4-3. Each weak pull-up is automatically turned
off when the port pin is configured as an output. The
pull-ups are disabled on a Power-on Reset by the
RAPU bit (OPTION_REG<7>). A weak pull-up is automatically enabled for RA3 when configured as MCLR
and disabled when RA3 is an I/O. There is no software
control of the MCLR pull-up.
The TRISA register controls the direction of the
PORTA pins, even when they are being used as analog
inputs. The user must ensure the bits in the TRISA
register are maintained set when using them as analog
inputs. I/O pins configured as analog input always read
‘0’.
Note:
The ANSEL (91h) and CMCON0 (19h)
registers must be initialized to configure
an analog channel as a digital input. Pins
configured as analog inputs will read ‘0’.

4.2.2
INTERRUPT-ON-CHANGE
Each of the PORTA pins is individually configurable as
an interrupt-on-change pin. Control bits IOCAx enable
or disable the interrupt function for each pin. Refer to
Register 4-4. The interrupt-on-change is disabled on a
Power-on Reset.
For enabled interrupt-on-change pins, the values are
compared with the old value latched on the last read of
PORTA. The ‘mismatch’ outputs of the last read are
OR’d together to set the PORTA Change Interrupt Flag
bit (RAIF) in the INTCON register (Register 2-3).
This interrupt can wake the device from Sleep. The
user, in the Interrupt Service Routine, clears the
interrupt by:
a)
Any read or write of PORTA. This will end the
mismatch condition, then,
Clear the flag bit RAIF.
b)
A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit RAIF.
Reading PORTA will end the mismatch condition and
allow flag bit RAIF to be cleared. The latch holding the
last read value is not affected by a MCLR nor BOD
Reset. After these resets, the RAIF flag will continue to
be set if a mismatch is present.
Note:
REGISTER 4-4:
If a change on the I/O pin should occur
when the read operation is being executed
(start of the Q2 cycle), then the RAIF
interrupt flag may not get set.

4.2.3
ULTRA LOW-POWER WAKE-UP
The Ultra Low-power Wake-up (ULPWU) on RA0
allows a slow falling voltage to generate an interrupton-change on RA0 without excess current consumption. The mode is selected by setting the ULPWUE bit
(PCON<5>). This enables a small current sink which
can be used to discharge a capacitor on RA0.
To use this feature, the RA0 pin is configured to output
‘1’ to charge the capacitor, interrupt-on-change for RA0
is enabled, and RA0 is configured as an input. The
ULPWUE bit is set to begin the discharge and a SLEEP
instruction is performed. When the voltage on RA0 drops
below VIL, an interrupt will be generated which will cause
the device to wake-up. Depending on the state of the
GIE bit (INTCON<7>), the device will either jump to the
interrupt vector (0004h) or execute the next instruction
when the interrupt event occurs. See Section 4.2.2
“Interrupt-on-change” and Section 12.4.3 “PORTA
Interrupt” for more information.
This feature provides a low-power technique for
periodically waking up the device from Sleep. The
time-out is dependent on the discharge time of the RC
circuit on RA0. See Example 4-2 for initializing the
Ultra Low-Power Wake-up module.
DS41202C-page 34
The series resistor provides overcurrent protection for
the RA0 pin and can allow for software calibration of
the time-out (see Figure 4-1). A timer can be used to
measure the charge time and discharge time of the
capacitor. The charge time can then be adjusted to provide the desired interrupt delay. This technique will
compensate for the affects of temperature, voltage and
component accuracy. The Ultra Low-power Wake-up
peripheral can also be configured as a simple
Programmable Low Voltage Detect or temperature
sensor.
Note:
For more information, refer to AN879,

Wake-up Module” Application Note

TIMER0 MODULE
Counter mode is selected by setting the T0CS bit
(OPTION_REG<5>). In this mode, the Timer0 module
will increment either on every rising or falling edge of
pin RA2/T0CKI. The incrementing edge is determined
by
the
source
edge
(T0SE)
control
bit
(OPTION_REG<4>). Clearing the T0SE bit selects the
rising edge.
The Timer0 module timer/counter has the following
features:
•
•
•
•
•
•
8-bit timer/counter
Readable and writable
8-bit software programmable prescaler

Additional information on the Timer0
module is available in the “PICmicro®
Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manual” (DS33023).
Timer0 Interrupt
A Timer0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0
register timer/counter overflows from FFh to 00h. This
overflow sets the T0IF bit (INTCON<2>). The interrupt
can be masked by clearing the T0IE bit (INTCON<5>).
The T0IF bit must be cleared in software by the Timer0
module Interrupt Service Routine before re-enabling
this interrupt. The Timer0 interrupt cannot wake the
processor from Sleep since the timer is shut off during
Sleep.
Timer0 Operation
Timer mode is selected by clearing the T0CS bit
(OPTION_REG<5>). In Timer mode, the Timer0
module will increment every instruction cycle (without
prescaler). If TMR0 is written, the increment is inhibited
for the following two instruction cycles. The user can
work around this by writing an adjusted value to the
TMR0 register.

Counter mode has specific external clock
requirements. Additional information on

Using Timer0 with an External
Clock
When no prescaler is used, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization
of T0CKI, with the internal phase clocks, is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is
necessary for T0CKI to be high for at least 2 TOSC (and
a small RC delay of 20 ns) and low for at least 2 TOSC
(and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer to the electrical
specification of the desired device.
Note:
The ANSEL (91h) and CMCON0 (19h)
registers must be initialized to configure
an analog channel as a digital input. Pins
configured as analog inputs will read ‘0’.

EXAMPLE 5-1:
Prescaler
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer. For simplicity, this counter will be referred to as
“prescaler” throughout this data sheet. The prescaler
assignment is controlled in software by the control bit
PSA (OPTION_REG<3>). Clearing the PSA bit will
assign the prescaler to Timer0. Prescale values are
selectable via the PS<2:0> bits (OPTION_REG<2:0>).
The prescaler is not readable or writable. When
assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions writing
to the TMR0 register (e.g., CLRF 1, MOVWF 1,
BSF 1, x....etc.) will clear the prescaler. When
assigned to WDT, a CLRWDT instruction will clear the
prescaler along with the Watchdog Timer.
5.4.1
SWITCHING PRESCALER
ASSIGNMENT
The prescaler assignment is fully under software
control (i.e., it can be changed “on the fly” during
program execution). To avoid an unintended device
Reset,
the
following
instruction
sequence
(Example 5-1 and Example 5-2) must be executed
when changing the prescaler assignment from Timer0
to WDT.

6.1
Timer1 Modes of Operation
6.3
Timer1 can operate in one of three modes:
• 16-bit Timer with prescaler
• 16-bit Synchronous counter
• 16-bit Asynchronous counter
In Timer mode, Timer1 is incremented on every instruction cycle. In Counter mode, Timer1 is incremented on
the rising edge of the external clock input T1CKI. In
addition, the Counter mode clock can be synchronized
to the microcontroller system clock or run
asynchronously.
In Counter and Timer modules, the counter/timer clock
can be gated by the Timer1 gate, which can be
selected as either the T1G pin or Comparator 2 output.
If an external clock oscillator is needed (and the
microcontroller is using the INTOSC without CLKOUT),
Timer1 can use the LP oscillator as a clock source.
Note:
6.2
In Counter mode, a falling edge must be
registered by the counter prior to the first
incrementing rising edge.
Timer1 has four prescaler options allowing 1, 2, 4 or 8
divisions of the clock input. The T1CKPS bits
(T1CON<5:4>) control the prescale counter. The
prescale counter is not directly readable or writable;
however, the prescaler counter is cleared upon a write
to TMR1H or TMR1L.
6.4
Timer1 Gate
Timer1 gate source is software configurable to be the
T1G pin or the output of Comparator 2. This allows the
device to directly time external events using T1G or
analog events using Comparator 2. See CMCON1
(Register 8-2) for selecting the Timer1 gate source.
This feature can simplify the software for a Delta-Sigma
A/D converter and many other applications. For more
information on Delta-Sigma A/D converters, see the
Microchip web site (www.microchip.com).
Note:
Timer1 Interrupt
The Timer1 register pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) increments
to FFFFh and rolls over to 0000h. When Timer1 rolls
over, the Timer1 interrupt flag bit (PIR1<0>) is set. To
enable the interrupt on rollover, you must set these bits:
Timer1 Prescaler
TMR1GE bit (T1CON<6>) must be set to
use either T1G or C2OUT as the Timer1
gate source. See Register 8-2 for more
information on selecting the Timer1 gate
source.
Timer1 gate can be inverted using the T1GINV bit
(T1CON<7>), whether it originates from the T1G pin or
Comparator 2 output. This configures Timer1 to
measure either the active-high or active-low time
between events.
• Timer1 interrupt enable bit (PIE1<0>)
• PEIE bit (INTCON<6>)
• GIE bit (INTCON<7>)
The interrupt is cleared by clearing the TMR1IF bit in
the Interrupt Service Routine.
Note:
The TMR1H:TTMR1L register pair and the
TMR1IF bit should be cleared before
enabling interrupts.

Timer1 Operation in
Asynchronous Counter Mode
6.6
A crystal oscillator circuit is built-in between pins OSC1
(input) and OSC2 (amplifier output). It is enabled by
setting control bit, T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>). The
oscillator is a low-power oscillator rated up to 32 kHz. It
will continue to run during Sleep. It is primarily intended
for a 32 kHz crystal. Table 3-1 shows the capacitor
selection for the Timer1 oscillator.
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
software are needed to read/write the timer (see
Section 6.5.1 “Reading and Writing Timer1 in
Asynchronous Counter Mode”).
Note:
6.5.1
The Timer1 oscillator is shared with the system LP
oscillator. Thus, Timer1 can use this mode only when
the primary system clock is derived from the internal
oscillator. As with the system LP oscillator, the user
must provide a software time delay to ensure proper
oscillator start-up.
The ANSEL (91h) and CMCON0 (19h)
registers must be initialized to configure
an analog channel as a digital input. Pins
configured as analog inputs will read ‘0’.
TRISA5 and TRISA4 bits are set when the Timer1
oscillator is enabled. RA5 and RA4 read as ‘0’ and
TRISA5 and TRISA4 bits read as ‘1’.
READING AND WRITING TIMER1 IN
ASYNCHRONOUS COUNTER
MODE
Note:
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L while the timer is running
from an external asynchronous clock will ensure a valid
read (taken care of in hardware). However, the user
should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer in two
8-bit values itself, poses certain problems, since the
timer may overflow between the reads.
6.7
Timer1 Operation During Sleep
• Timer1 must be on (T1CON<0>)
• TMR1IE bit (PIE1<0>) must be set
• PEIE bit (INTCON<6>) must be set
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care.
Examples in the “PICmicro® Mid-Range MCU Family
Reference Manual” (DS33023) show how to read and
write Timer1 when it is running in Asynchronous mode.
The device will wake-up on an overflow. If the GIE bit
(INTCON<7>) is set, the device will wake-up and jump
to the Interrupt Service Routine (0004h) on an overflow.
If the GIE bit is clear, execution will continue with the
next instruction.

The oscillator requires a start-up and

T1OSCEN should be set and a suitable
delay observed prior to enabling Timer 1.
Timer1 can only operate during Sleep when setup in
Asynchronous Counter mode. In this mode, an external
crystal or clock source can be used to increment the
counter. To set up the timer to wake the device:
For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop
the timer and write the desired values. A write contention may occur by writing to the timer registers, while
the register is incrementing. This may produce an
unpredictable value in the timer register.

TIMER2 MODULE
7.1
The Timer2 module timer has the following features:
•
•
•
•
•
•
8-bit timer (TMR2 register)
8-bit period register (PR2)
Readable and writable (both registers)
Software programmable prescaler (1:1, 1:4, 1:16)
Software programmable postscaler (1:1 to 1:16)
Interrupt on TMR2 match with PR2
Timer2 has a control register shown in Register 7-1.
TMR2 can be shut-off by clearing control bit, TMR2ON
(T2CON<2>), to minimize power consumption.
Figure 7-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer2
module. The prescaler and postscaler selection of
Timer2 are controlled by this register.
Timer2 Operation
Timer2 can be used as the PWM time base for the
PWM mode of the ECCP module. The TMR2 register is
readable and writable, and is cleared on any device
Reset. The input clock (FOSC/4) has a prescale option
of 1:1, 1:4 or 1:16, selected by control bits
T2CKPS<1:0> (T2CON<1:0>). 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>)).
The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared
when any of the following occurs:
• A write to the TMR2 register
• A write to the T2CON register
• Any device Reset (Power-on Reset, MCLR Reset,
Watchdog Timer Reset, or Brown-out Reset)
TMR2 is not cleared when T2CON is written.

Timer2 Interrupt
The Timer2 module has an 8-bit period register, PR2.
Timer2 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
initialized to FFh upon Reset.

COMPARATOR MODULE
The comparator module contains two analog
comparators. The inputs to the comparators are
multiplexed with I/O port pins RA0, RA1, RC0 and
RC1, while the outputs are multiplexed to pins RA2
and RC4. An on-chip Comparator Voltage Reference
(CVREF) can also be applied to the inputs of the
comparators.
REGISTER 8-1:
The CMCON0 register (Register 8-1) controls the
comparator input and output multiplexers. A block
diagram of the various comparator configurations is
shown in Figure 8-3.

Comparator Operation
A single comparator is shown in Figure 8-1 along with
the relationship between the analog input levels and
the digital output. When the analog input at VIN+ is less
than the analog input VIN-, the output of the comparator
is a digital low level. When the analog input at VIN+ is
greater than the analog input VIN-, the output of the
comparator is a digital high level. The shaded areas of
the output of the comparator in Figure 8-1 represent
the uncertainty due to input offsets and response time.

Analog Input Connection
Considerations
A simplified circuit for an analog input is shown in
Figure 8-2. Since the analog pins are connected to a
digital output, they have reverse biased diodes to VDD
and VSS. The analog input, therefore, must be between
VSS and VDD. If the input voltage deviates from this
range by more than 0.6V in either direction, one of the
diodes is forward biased and a latch-up may occur. A
maximum source impedance of 10 kΩ is recommended
for the analog sources. Any external component
connected to an analog input pin, such as a capacitor
or a Zener diode, should have very little leakage
current.

The polarity of the comparator output can be inverted
by setting the CxINV bits (CMCON0<5:4>). Clearing
CxINV results in a non-inverted output. A complete

and the polarity bit is shown in Table 8-1.

To use CIN+ and CIN- pins as analog

Comparator Configuration
There are eight modes of operation for the comparators. The CMCON0 register is used to select these
modes. Figure 8-3 shows the eight possible modes.
If the Comparator mode is changed, the comparator
output level may not be valid for the specified mode

Comparator Outputs
8.5
The comparator outputs are read through the
CMCON0 register. These bits are read-only. The
comparator outputs may also be directly output to the
RA2 and RC4 I/O pins. When enabled, multiplexers in
the output path of the RA2 and RC4 pins will switch
and the output of each pin will be the unsynchronized
output of the comparator. The uncertainty of each of
the comparators is related to the input offset voltage
and the response time given in the specifications.
Figure 8-4 and Figure 8-5 show the output block
diagram for Comparator 1 and 2.
The TRIS bits will still function as an output enable/
disable for the RA2 and RC4 pins while in this mode.
The polarity of the comparator outputs can be changed
using the C1INV and C2INV bits (CMCON0<5:4>).
Timer1 gate source can be configured to use the T1G
pin or Comparator 2 output as selected by the T1GSS
bit (CMCON1<1>). This feature can be used to time the
duration or interval of analog events. The output of
Comparator 2 can also be synchronized with Timer1 by
setting the C2SYNC bit (CMCON1<0>). When
enabled, the output of Comparator 2 is latched on the
falling edge of Timer1 clock source. If a prescaler is
used with Timer1, Comparator 2 is latched after the
prescaler. To prevent a race condition, the Comparator
2 output is latched on the falling edge of the Timer1
clock source and Timer1 increments on the rising edge
of its clock source. See the Comparator 2 Block
Diagram (Figure 8-5) and the Timer1 Block Diagram
(Figure 6-1) for more information.
x = Bit is unknown
Comparator Interrupts
The comparator interrupt flags are set whenever there
is a change in the output value of its respective comparator. Software will need to maintain information about
the status of the output bits, as read from
CMCON0<7:6>, to determine the actual change that
has occurred. The CxIF bits, PIR1<4:3>, are the
Comparator Interrupt Flags. This bit must be reset in
software by clearing it to ‘0’. Since it is also possible to
write a ‘1’ to this register, a simulated interrupt may be
initiated.
The CxIE bits (PIE1<4:3>) and the PEIE bit
(INTCON<6>) must be set to enable the interrupts. In
addition, the GIE bit must also be set. If any of these
bits are cleared, the interrupt is not enabled, though the
CxIF bits will still be set if an interrupt condition occurs.
The user, in the Interrupt Service Routine, can clear the
interrupt in the following manner:
a)
Any read or write of CMCON0. This will end the
mismatch condition.
Clear flag bit CxIF.
b)
A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit CxIF.
Reading CMCON0 will end the mismatch condition and
allow flag bit CxIF to be cleared.
Note:
If a change in the CMCON0 register
(CxOUT) should occur when a read
operation is being executed (start of the Q2
cycle), then the CxIF (PIR1<4:3>) interrupt
flag may not get set.
It is recommended to synchronize Comparator 2 with
Timer1 by setting the C2SYNC bit when Comparator 2
is used as the Timer1 gate source. This ensures Timer1
does not miss an increment if Comparator 2 changes
during an increment.

8.6.2
Comparator Reference
The comparator module also allows the selection of an
internally generated voltage reference for one of the
comparator inputs. The VRCON register (Register 8-3)
controls the voltage reference module shown in
Figure 8-6.
8.6.1
VOLTAGE REFERENCE
ACCURACY/ERROR
The full range of VSS to VDD cannot be realized due to
the construction of the module. The transistors on the
top and bottom of the resistor ladder network
(Figure 8-6) keep CVREF from approaching VSS or
VDD. The exception is when the module is disabled by
clearing the VREN bit (VRCON<7>). When disabled,
the reference voltage is VSS when VR<3:0> is ‘0000’
and the VRR (VRCON<5>) bit is set. This allows the
comparators to detect a zero-crossing and not
consume CVREF module current.
CONFIGURING THE VOLTAGE
REFERENCE
The voltage reference can output 32 distinct voltage
levels, 16 in a high range and 16 in a low range.
The following equation determines the output voltages:
The voltage reference is VDD derived and therefore, the
CVREF output changes with fluctuations in VDD. The
tested absolute accuracy of the comparator voltage
Reference can be found in Section 15.0 “Electrical
Specifications”.
EQUATION 8-1:
VRR = 1 (low range): CVREF = (VR3:VR0/24) X VDD
VRR = 0 (high range):
CVREF = (VDD/4) + (VR3:VR0 X VDD/32)

8.7
Comparator Response Time
8.9
Response time is the minimum time, after selecting a
new reference voltage or input source, before the
comparator output is ensured to have a valid level. If
the internal reference is changed, the maximum delay
of the internal voltage reference must be considered
when using the comparator outputs. Otherwise, the
maximum delay of the comparators should be used
(Table 15-8).
8.8
Effects of a Reset
A device Reset forces the CMCON0, CMCON1 and
VRCON registers to their Reset states. This forces the
comparator module to be in the Comparator Reset
mode, CM<2:0> = 000 and the voltage reference to its
off state. Thus, all potential inputs are analog inputs
with the comparator and voltage reference disabled to
consume the smallest current possible.
Operation During Sleep
The comparators and voltage reference, if enabled
before entering Sleep mode, remain active during
Sleep. This results in higher Sleep currents than shown
in the power-down specifications. The additional
current consumed by the comparator and the voltage
reference is shown separately in the specifications. To
minimize power consumption while in Sleep mode, turn
off the comparator, CM<2:0> = 111, and voltage
reference, VRCON<7> = 0.
While the comparator is enabled during Sleep, an interrupt will wake-up the device. If the GIE bit
(INTCON<7>) is set, the device will jump to the interrupt vector (0004h), and if clear, continues execution
with the next instruction. If the device wakes up from
Sleep, the contents of the CMCON0, CMCON1 and
VRCON registers are not affected.

There are two options for the voltage reference to the
A/D converter: either VDD is used, or an analog voltage
applied to VREF is used. The VCFG bit (ADCON0<6>)
controls the voltage reference selection. If VCFG is set,
then the voltage on the VREF pin is the reference;
otherwise, VDD is the reference.
ANALOG PORT PINS
The ANS<7:0> bits (ANSEL<7:0>) and the TRIS bits
control the operation of the A/D port pins. Set the
corresponding TRIS bits to set the pin output driver to
its high-impedance state. Likewise, set the corresponding ANSEL bit to disable the digital input buffer.

The A/D conversion cycle requires 11 TAD. The source
of the conversion clock is software selectable via the
ADCS bits (ADCON1<6:4>). There are seven possible
clock options:
For correct conversion, the A/D conversion clock
(1/TAD) must be selected to ensure a minimum TAD of

Shaded cells are outside of recommended range.
The A/D RC source has a typical TAD time of 4 µs for VDD > 3.0V.
These values violate the minimum required TAD time.
For faster conversion times, the selection of another clock source is recommended.
When the device frequency is greater than 1 MHz, the A/D RC clock source is only recommended if the
conversion will be performed during Sleep.
If the conversion must be aborted, the GO/DONE bit
can be cleared in software. The ADRESH:ADRESL
registers will not be updated with the partially complete
A/D
conversion
sample.
Instead,
the
ADRESH:ADRESL registers will retain the value of the
previous conversion. After an aborted conversion, a
2 TAD delay is required before another acquisition can
be initiated. Following the delay, an input acquisition is
automatically started on the selected channel.
STARTING A CONVERSION
The A/D conversion is initiated by setting the
GO/DONE bit (ADCON0<1>). When the conversion is
complete, the A/D module:
• Clears the GO/DONE bit
• Sets the ADIF flag (PIR1<6>)
• Generates an interrupt (if enabled)
Note:

The GO/DONE bit should not be set in the
same instruction that turns on the A/D.

CONFIGURING THE A/D
EXAMPLE 9-1:
After the A/D module has been configured as desired,
the selected channel must be acquired before the
conversion is started. The analog input channels must
have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as inputs.
To determine sample time, see Section 15.0 “Electrical Specifications”. After this sample time has
elapsed, the A/D conversion can be started.
These steps should be followed for an A/D conversion:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Configure the A/D module:
• Configure analog/digital I/O (ANSEL)
• Configure voltage reference (ADCON0)
• Select A/D input channel (ADCON0)
• Select A/D conversion clock (ADCON1)
• Turn on A/D module (ADCON0)
Configure A/D interrupt (if desired):
• Clear ADIF bit (PIR1<6>)
• Set ADIE bit (PIE1<6>)
• Set PEIE and GIE bits (INTCON<7:6>)
Wait the required acquisition time.
Start conversion:
• Set GO/DONE bit (ADCON0<0>)
Wait for A/D conversion to complete, by either:
• Polling for the GO/DONE bit to be cleared
(with interrupts disabled); OR
• Waiting for the A/D interrupt
Read A/D Result register pair
(ADRESH:ADRESL), clear bit ADIF if required.
For next conversion, go to step 1 or step 2 as
required. The A/D conversion time per bit is
defined as TAD. A minimum wait of 2 TAD is
required before the next acquisition starts.

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 9-4. The source
impedance (RS) and the internal sampling switch (RSS)
impedance directly affect the time required to charge
the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling switch (RSS) impedance varies over the device voltage (VDD), see
Figure 9-4. The maximum recommended impedance
for analog sources is 10 kΩ. As the impedance is
decreased, the acquisition time may be decreased.
EQUATION 9-1:
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 9-1
may be used. This equation assumes that 1/2 LSb error is
used (1024 steps for the A/D). The 1/2 LSb error is the
maximum error allowed for the A/D to meet its specified
resolution.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time, TACQ, see
the “PICmicro® Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manual” (DS33023).
ACQUISITION TIME
TACQ = Amplifier Settling Time + Hold Capacitor Charging Time + Temperature Coefficient
= TAMP + TC + TCOFF
= 2 µs + TC + [(Temperature -25°C)(0.05 µs/°C)]
TC = CHOLD (RIC + RSS + RS) In(1/2047)
= -120 pF (1 kΩ + 7 kΩ + 10 kΩ) In(0.0004885)
= 16.47 µs
TACQ = 2 µs + 16.47 µs + [(50°C-25°C)(0.05 µs/°C)]
= 19.72 µs
Note 1: The reference voltage (VREF) has no effect on the equation, since it cancels itself out.
2: The charge holding capacitor (CHOLD) is not discharged after each conversion.
3: The maximum recommended impedance for analog sources is 10 kΩ. This is required to meet the pin
leakage specification.

A/D Operation During Sleep
The A/D converter module can operate during Sleep.
This requires the A/D clock source to be set to the
internal oscillator. When the RC clock source is
selected, the A/D waits one instruction before starting
the conversion. This allows the SLEEP instruction to be
executed, thus eliminating much of the switching noise
from the conversion. When the conversion is complete,
the GO/DONE bit is cleared and the result is loaded
into the ADRESH:ADRESL registers.
FIGURE 9-5:
If the A/D interrupt is enabled, the device awakens from
Sleep. If the GIE bit (INTCON<7>) is set, the program
counter is set to the interrupt vector (0004h), if GIE is
clear, the next instruction is executed. If the A/D interrupt is not enabled, the A/D module is turned off,
although the ADON bit remains set.
When the A/D clock source is something other than
RC, a SLEEP instruction causes the present conversion
to be aborted, and the A/D module is turned off. The
ADON bit remains set.

Effects of Reset
A device Reset forces all registers to their Reset state.
Thus, the A/D module is turned off and any pending
conversion is aborted. The ADRESH:ADRESL
registers are unchanged.
9.5
Use of the ECCP Trigger
An A/D conversion can be started by the “special event
trigger” of the ECCP module. This requires that the
CCP1M3:CCP1M0
bits
(CCP1CON<3:0>)
be
programmed as ‘1011’ and that the A/D module is
enabled (ADON bit is set). When the trigger occurs, the
GO/DONE bit will be set, starting the A/D conversion
and the Timer1 counter will be reset to zero. Timer1 is
reset to automatically repeat the A/D acquisition period
with minimal software overhead (moving the
ADRESH:ADRESL to the desired location).
 2004 Microchip Technology Inc.
VREF
Zero-Scale
Transition
The appropriate analog input channel must be selected
and the minimum acquisition done before the “special
event trigger” sets the GO/DONE bit (starts a
conversion).
If the A/D module is not enabled (ADON is cleared),
then the “special event trigger” will be ignored by the
A/D module, but will still reset the Timer1 counter. See
Section 11.0 “Enhanced Capture/Compare/PWM
(ECCP) Module” for more information.

DATA EEPROM MEMORY
The EEPROM data memory is readable and writable
during normal operation (full VDD range). This memory
is not directly mapped in the register file space.
Instead, it is indirectly addressed through the Special
Function Registers. There are four SFRs used to read
and write this memory:
•
•
•
•
EECON1
EECON2 (not a physically implemented register)
EEDAT
EEADR
EEDAT holds the 8-bit data for read/write, and EEADR
holds the address of the EEPROM location being
accessed. PIC16F684 has 256 bytes of data EEPROM
with an address range from 0h to FFh.
REGISTER 10-1:
The EEPROM data memory allows byte read and write.
A byte write automatically erases the location and
writes the new data (erase before write). The EEPROM
data memory is rated for high erase/write cycles. The
write time is controlled by an on-chip timer. The write
time will vary with voltage and temperature as well as
from chip-to-chip. Please refer to AC Specifications in
Section 15.0 “Electrical Specifications” for exact
limits.
When the data memory is code-protected, the CPU
may continue to read and write the data EEPROM
memory. The device programmer can no longer access
the data EEPROM data and will read zeroes.
Additional information on the data EEPROM is
available in the “PICmicro® Mid-Range MCU Family
Reference Manual” (DS33023).

EECON1 and EECON2 Registers
EECON1 is the control register with four low-order bits
physically implemented. The upper four bits are nonimplemented and read as ‘0’s.
Control bits RD and WR initiate read and write,
respectively. These bits cannot be cleared, only set in
software. They are cleared in hardware at completion
of the read or write operation. The inability to clear the
WR bit in software prevents the accidental, premature
termination of a write operation.
can check the WRERR bit, clear it and rewrite the
location. The data and address will be cleared. Therefore, the EEDAT and EEADR registers will need to be
re-initialized.
Interrupt flag, EEIF bit (PIR1<7>), is set when write is
complete. This bit must be cleared in software.
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2
will read all ‘0’s. The EECON2 register is used
exclusively in the data EEPROM write sequence.
Note:
The WREN bit, when set, will allow a write operation.
On power-up, the WREN bit is clear. The WRERR bit is
set when a write operation is interrupted by a MCLR
Reset, or a WDT Time-out Reset during normal
operation. In these situations, following Reset, the user

Reading the EEPROM Data
Memory
After a write sequence has been initiated, clearing the
WREN bit will not affect this write cycle. The WR bit will
be inhibited from being set unless the WREN bit is set.
To read a data memory location, the user must write the
address to the EEADR register and then set control bit
RD (EECON1<0>), as shown in Example 10-1. The
data is available, in the very next cycle, in the EEDAT
register. Therefore, it can be read in the next
instruction. EEDAT holds this value until another read,
or until it is written to by the user (during a write
operation).

The write will not initiate if the above sequence is not
exactly followed (write 55h to EECON2, write AAh to
EECON2, then set WR bit) for each byte. We strongly
recommend that interrupts be disabled during this
code segment. A cycle count is executed during the
required sequence. Any number that is not equal to the
required cycles to execute the required sequence will
prevent the data from being written into the EEPROM.
Additionally, the WREN bit in EECON1 must be set to
enable write. This mechanism prevents accidental
writes to data EEPROM due to errant (unexpected)
code execution (i.e., lost programs). The user should
keep the WREN bit clear at all times, except when
updating EEPROM. The WREN bit is not cleared
by hardware.

Write Verify
Depending on the application, good programming
practice may dictate that the value written to the data
EEPROM should be verified (see Example 10-3) to the
desired value to be written.
EXAMPLE 10-3:
Writing to the EEPROM Data
Memory
To write an EEPROM data location, the user must first
write the address to the EEADR register and the data
to the EEDAT register. Then the user must follow a
specific sequence to initiate the write for each byte, as
shown in Example 10-2.
Required
Sequence
At the completion of the write cycle, the WR bit is
cleared in hardware and the EE Write Complete
Interrupt Flag bit (EEIF) is set. The user can either
enable this interrupt or poll this bit. The EEIF bit
(PIR1<7>) register must be cleared by software.

USING THE DATA EEPROM
The data EEPROM is a high-endurance, byte addressable array that has been optimized for the storage of
frequently changing information. The maximum
endurance for any EEPROM cell is specified as Dxxx.
D120 or D120A specify a maximum number of writes to
any EEPROM location before a refresh is required of
infrequently changing memory locations.
10.4.2
EEPROM ENDURANCE
A hypothetical data EEPROM is 64 bytes long and has
an endurance of 1M writes. It also has a refresh parameter of 10M writes. If every memory location in the cell
were written the maximum number of times, the data
EEPROM would fail after 64M write cycles. If every
memory location save one were written the maximum
number of times, the data EEPROM would fail after
63M write cycles, but the one remaining location could
fail after 10M cycles. If proper refreshes occurred, then
the lone memory location would have to be refreshed
six times for the data to remain correct.

Protection Against Spurious Write
There are conditions when the user may not want to
write to the data EEPROM memory. To protect against
spurious EEPROM writes, various mechanisms have
been built in. On power-up, WREN is cleared. Also, the
Power-up
Timer
(64 ms
duration)
prevents
EEPROM write.
The write initiate sequence and the WREN bit together
help prevent an accidental write during:
• Brown-out
• Power Glitch
• Software Malfunction
TABLE 10-1:

10.6
Data EEPROM Operation During
Code-Protect
Data memory can be code-protected by programming
the CPD bit in the Configuration Word register
(Register 12-1) to ‘0’.
When the data memory is code-protected, the CPU is
able to read and write data to the data EEPROM. It is
recommended to code-protect the program memory
when code-protecting data memory. This prevents
anyone from programming zeroes over the existing
code (which will execute as NOPs) to reach an added
routine, programmed in unused program memory,
which outputs the contents of data memory.
Programming unused locations in program memory to
‘0’ will also help prevent data memory code protection
from becoming breached.

Capture Mode
In Capture mode, CCPR1H:CCPR1L captures the
16-bit value of the TMR1 register when an event occurs
on pin RC5/CCP1/P1A. An event is defined as one of
the following and is configured by CCP1CON<3:0>:
•
•
•
•
Every falling edge
Every rising edge
Every 4th rising edge
Every 16th rising edge
When a capture is made, the interrupt request flag bit,
CCP1IF (PIR1<5>), is set. The interrupt flag must be
cleared in software. If another capture occurs before
the value in register CCPR1 is read, the old captured
value is overwritten by the new captured value.
11.1.1
CCP1 PIN CONFIGURATION
In Capture mode, the RC5/CCP1/P1A pin should be
configured as an input by setting the TRISC<5> bit.
Note:
If the RC5/CCP1/P1A pin is configured as
an output, a write to the port can cause a
capture condition.
FIGURE 11-1:

ECCP PRESCALER
There are four prescaler settings specified by bits
CCP1M<3:0> (CCP1CON<3:0>). Whenever the ECCP
module is turned off, or the ECCP module is not in
Capture mode, the prescaler counter is cleared. 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 cleared; therefore, the first capture may be from
a non-zero prescaler. Example 11-1 shows the recommended method for switching between capture
prescalers. This example also clears the prescaler
counter and will not generate the “false” interrupt.

Enhanced PWM Mode
Figure 11-3 shows a simplified block diagram of PWM
operation.
The Enhanced CCP module produces up to a 10-bit
resolution PWM output and may have up to four
outputs, depending on the selected operating mode.
These outputs, designated P1A through P1D, are
multiplexed with I/O pins on PORTC. The pin
assignments are summarized in Table 11-3.
FIGURE 11-3:

11.3.2
PWM PERIOD
A PWM output (Figure 11-4 and Figure 11-5) has a time
base (period) and a time that the output is active (duty
cycle). The PWM period is specified by writing to the
PR2 register. The PWM period can be calculated using
the following formula:
The following equation is used to calculate the PWM
duty cycle in time:
EQUATION 11-2:
PWM duty cycle = ( CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4> ) •
T OSC • (TMR2 prescale value)
EQUATION 11-1:
When the CCPR1H and 2-bit latch match TMR2,
concatenated with an internal 2-bit Q clock or 2 bits of
the TMR2 prescaler, the appropriate PWM pin is
toggled. In Dual PWM mode, the pin will be toggled
after the dead band time has expired.
PWM period = [ ( PR2 ) + 1 ] • 4 • T OSC •
(TMR2 prescale value)
PWM frequency is defined as 1 / [PWM period].
When TMR2 is equal to PR2, the following three events
occur on the next increment cycle:
• TMR2 is cleared
• The appropriate PWM pin toggles. In Dual PWM
mode, this occurs after the dead band delay
expires (exception: if PWM duty cycle = 0%, the
pin will not be set)
• The PWM duty cycle is latched from CCPR1L into
CCPR1H
Note:
11.3.3
The maximum PWM resolution for a given PWM
frequency is given by the formula:
EQUATION 11-3:
The Timer2 postscaler (see Section 7.1
“Timer2 Operation”) is not used in the
determination of the PWM frequency. The
postscaler could be used to have a servo
update rate at a different frequency than
the PWM output.
PWM DUTY CYCLE
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing to the
CCPR1L
register
and
to
the
DC1B<1:0>
(CCP1CON<5:4>) bits. Up to 10 bits of resolution is
available. The CCPR1L contains the eight MSbs and
the DC1B<1:0> contains the two LSbs. CCPR1L and
DC1B<1:0> can be written to at any time. In PWM
mode, CCPR1H is a read-only register. This 10-bit
value is represented by CCPR1L (CCP1CON<5:4>).
TABLE 11-4:
F OSC
log  -------------------------------------------------------------
 F PWM • TMR2 Prescaler
Resolution = --------------------------------------------------------------------------- bits
log ( 2 )
All control registers are double buffered and are loaded
at the beginning of a new PWM cycle (the period
boundary when Timer2 resets) in order to prevent
glitches on any of the outputs. The exception is the
PWM delay register, which is loaded at either the duty
cycle boundary or the period boundary (whichever
comes first). Because of the buffering, the module
waits until the timer resets, instead of starting immediately. This means that enhanced PWM waveforms do
not exactly match the standard PWM waveforms, but
are instead offset by one full instruction cycle (4 TOSC).
Note:
If the PWM duty cycle value is longer than
the PWM period, the assigned PWM pin(s)
will remain unchanged.

HALF-BRIDGE MODE
In the Half-bridge Output mode, two pins are used as
outputs to drive push-pull loads. The PWM output signal is output on the RC5/CCP1/P1A pin, while the complementary PWM output signal is output on the
RC4/C2OUT/P1B pin (Figure 11-6). This mode can be
used for half-bridge applications, as shown in
Figure 11-7, or for full-bridge applications, where four
power switches are being modulated with two PWM
signals.
In Half-bridge Output mode, the programmable dead
band delay can be used to prevent shoot-through
current in half-bridge power devices. The value of bits
PDC<6:0> (PWM1CON<6:0>) sets the number of
instruction cycles before the output is driven active. If
the value is greater than the duty cycle, the corresponding output remains inactive during the entire
cycle. See Section 11.3.6 “Programmable Dead
Band Delay” for more details of the dead band delay
operations.
Since the P1A and P1B outputs are multiplexed with
the PORTC<5:4> data latches, the TRISC<5:4> bits
must be cleared to configure P1A and P1B as outputs.

Direction Change in Full-Bridge
Mode
In the Full-bridge Output mode, the P1M1 bit
(CCP1CON<7>) allows user to control the
Forward/Reverse direction. When the application firmware changes this direction control bit, the module will
assume the new direction on the next PWM cycle.
Just before the end of the current PWM period, the
modulated outputs (P1B and P1D) are placed in their
inactive state, while the unmodulated outputs (P1A and
P1C) are switched to drive in the opposite direction. This
occurs in a time interval of (4 TOSC*(Timer2 Prescale
value)) before the next PWM period begins. The Timer2
prescaler will be either 1, 4 or 16, depending on the
value of the T2CKPS<1:0> bits (T2CON<1:0>). During
the interval from the switch of the unmodulated outputs
to the beginning of the next period, the modulated outputs (P1B and P1D) remain inactive. This relationship is
shown in Figure 11-10.
Figure 11-11 shows an example where the PWM
direction changes from forward to reverse, at a near
100% duty cycle. At time t1, the output P1A and P1D
become inactive, while output P1C becomes active. In
this example, since the turn off time of the power
devices is longer than the turn on time, a shoot-through
current may flow through power devices QC and QD
(see Figure 11-9) for the duration of ‘t’. The same
phenomenon will occur to power devices QA and QB
for PWM direction change from reverse to forward.
If changing PWM direction at high duty cycle is required
for an application, one of the following requirements
must be met:
1.
2.
Reduce PWM duty cycle for one PWM period
before changing directions.
Use switch drivers that can drive the switches off
faster than they can drive them on.
Other options to prevent shoot-through current may
exist.
Note that in the Full-bridge Output mode, the ECCP
module does not provide any dead band delay. In
general, since only one output is modulated at all times,
dead band delay is not required. However, there is a
situation where a dead band delay might be required.
This situation occurs when both of the following
conditions are true:
1.
2.
The direction of the PWM output changes when
the duty cycle of the output is at or near 100%.
The turn off time of the power switch, including
the power device and driver circuit, is greater
than the turn on time.

PROGRAMMABLE DEAD BAND
DELAY
11.3.7
In half-bridge applications where all power switches are
modulated at the PWM frequency at all times, the
power switches normally require more time to turn off
than to turn on. If both the upper and lower power
switches are switched at the same time (one turned on,
and the other turned off), both switches may be on for
a short period of time until one switch completely turns
off. During this brief interval, a very high current
(shoot-through current) may flow through both power
switches, shorting the bridge supply. To avoid this
potentially destructive shoot-through current from
flowing during switching, turning on either of the power
switches is normally delayed to allow the other switch
to completely turn off.
In the Half-bridge Output mode, a digitally programmable dead band delay is available to avoid
shoot-through current from destroying the bridge
power switches. The delay occurs at the signal transition from the non-active state to the active state. See
Figure 11-6 for illustration. The lower seven bits of the
PWM1CON register (Register 11-2) sets the delay
period in terms of microcontroller instruction cycles
(TCY or 4 TOSC).
ENHANCED PWM
AUTO-SHUTDOWN
When the ECCP is programmed for any of the
enhanced PWM modes, the active output pins may be
configured for auto-shutdown. Auto-shutdown immediately places the enhanced PWM output pins into a
defined shutdown state when a shutdown event
occurs.
A shutdown event can be caused by either of the two
comparators or the INT pin (or any combination of
these three sources). The comparators may be used to
monitor a voltage input proportional to a current being
monitored in the bridge circuit. If the voltage exceeds a
threshold, the comparator switches state and triggers a
shutdown. Alternatively, a digital signal on the INT pin
can also trigger a shutdown. The auto-shutdown
feature can be disabled by not selecting any
auto-shutdown sources. The auto-shutdown sources to
be used are selected using the ECCPAS<2:0> bits
(ECCPAS<6:4>).
When a shutdown occurs, the output pins are
asynchronously placed in their shutdown states, specified by the PSSAC<1:0> and PSSBD<1:0> bits
(ECCPAS<3:0>). Each pin pair (P1A/P1C and
P1B/P1D) may be set to drive high, drive low, or be
tri-stated (not driving). The ECCPASE bit
(ECCPAS<7>) is also set to hold the enhanced PWM
outputs in their shutdown states.
The ECCPASE bit is set by hardware when a shutdown
event occurs. If Auto-restarts are not enabled, the
ECCPASE bit is cleared by firmware when the cause of
the shutdown clears. If Auto-restarts are enabled, the
ECCPASE bit is automatically cleared when the cause
of
the
auto-shutdown
has
cleared.

Auto-shutdown and Auto-restart
11.3.8
The auto-shutdown feature can be configured to allow
auto-restarts of the module following a shutdown event.
This is enabled by setting the PRSEN bit of the
PWM1CON register (PWM1CON<7>).
In Shutdown mode with PRSEN = 1 (Figure 11-12), the
ECCPASE bit will remain set for as long as the cause
of the shutdown continues. When the shutdown condition clears, the ECCPASE bit is cleared. If PRSEN = 0
(Figure 11-13), once a shutdown condition occurs, the
ECCPASE bit will remain set until it is cleared by firmware. Once ECCPASE is cleared, the enhanced PWM
will resume at the beginning of the next PWM period.
Note:
Writing to the ECCPASE bit is disabled
while a shutdown condition is active.
Independent of the PRSEN bit setting, whether the
auto-shutdown source is one of the comparators or
INT, the shutdown condition is a level. The ECCPASE
bit cannot be cleared as long as the cause of the shutdown persists.
The Auto-shutdown mode can be forced by writing a ‘1’
to the ECCPASE bit.
FIGURE 11-12:
START-UP CONSIDERATIONS
When the ECCP module is used in the PWM mode, the
application hardware must use the proper external
pull-up and/or pull-down resistors on the PWM output
pins. When the microcontroller is released from Reset,
all of the I/O pins are in the high-impedance state. The
external circuits must keep the power switch devices in
the off state, until the microcontroller drives the I/O pins
with the proper signal levels, or activates the PWM
output(s).
The CCP1M<1:0> bits (CCP1CON<1:0>) allow the
user to choose whether the PWM output signals are
active-high or active-low for each pair of PWM output
pins (P1A/P1C and P1B/P1D). The PWM output polarities must be selected before the PWM pins are configured as outputs. Changing the polarity configuration
while the PWM pins are configured as outputs is not
recommended since it may result in damage to the
application circuits.
The P1A, P1B, P1C and P1D output latches may not
be in the proper states when the PWM module is initialized. Enabling the PWM pins for output at the same
time as the ECCP module may cause damage to the
application circuit. The ECCP module must be enabled
in the proper Output mode and complete a full PWM
cycle before configuring the PWM pins as outputs. The
completion of a full PWM cycle is indicated by the
TMR2IF bit being set as the second PWM period
begins.

OPERATION IN SLEEP MODE
11.3.11
SETUP FOR PWM OPERATION
In Sleep mode, all clock sources are disabled. Timer2
will not increment, and the state of the module will not
change. If the ECCP pin is driving a value, it will
continue to drive that value. When the device wakes
up, it will continue from this state.
The following steps should be taken when configuring
the ECCP module for PWM operation:
11.3.9.1

3.
OPERATION WITH FAIL-SAFE
CLOCK MONITOR
1.
If the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor is enabled, a clock failure
will force the ECCP to be clocked from the internal
oscillator clock source, which may have a different
clock frequency than the primary clock.
See Section 3.0 “Clock Sources” for additional
details.
11.3.10
4.
EFFECTS OF A RESET
Any Reset will force all ports to Input mode and the
ECCP registers to their Reset states.
This forces the Enhanced CCP module to reset to a
state compatible with the standard CCP module.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE
CPU
The PIC16F684 has a host of features intended to
maximize system reliability, minimize cost through
elimination of external components, provide power
saving features and offer code protection.
These features are:
• Reset
- Power-on Reset (POR)
- Power-up Timer (PWRT)
- Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
- Brown-out Detect (BOD)
• Interrupts
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)
• Oscillator selection
• Sleep
• Code protection
• ID Locations
• In-Circuit Serial Programming
 2004 Microchip Technology Inc.
The PIC16F684 has 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 64 ms
(nominal) on power-up only, designed to keep the part
in Reset while the power supply stabilizes. There is also
circuitry to reset the device if a brown-out occurs, which
can use the Power-up Timer to provide at least a 64 ms
Reset. With these three functions-on-chip, most
applications need no external Reset circuitry.
The Sleep mode is designed to offer a very low -current
Power-down mode. The user can wake-up from Sleep
through:
• External Reset
• Watchdog Timer Wake-up
• An interrupt
Several oscillator options are also made available to
allow the part to fit the application. The INTOSC option
saves system cost while the LP crystal option saves
power. A set of configuration bits are used to select
various options (see Register 12-1).

The PIC16F684 differentiates between various kinds of
Reset:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
f)
Power-on Reset (POR)
WDT Reset during normal operation
WDT Reset during Sleep
MCLR Reset during normal operation
MCLR Reset during Sleep
Brown-out Detect (BOD)
A simplified block diagram of the On-Chip Reset Circuit
is shown in Figure 12-1.
Some registers are not affected in any Reset condition;
their status is unknown on POR and unchanged in any
other Reset. Most other registers are reset to a “Reset
state” on:
•
•
•
•
•
They are not affected by a WDT wake-up since this is
viewed as the resumption of normal operation. TO and
PD bits are set or cleared differently in different Reset
situations, as indicated in Table 12-2. These bits are
used in software to determine the nature of the Reset.
See Table 12-4 for a full description of Reset states of
all registers.
The MCLR Reset path has a noise filter to detect and
ignore small pulses. See Section 15.0 “Electrical
Specifications” for pulse-width specifications.

POWER-ON RESET
FIGURE 12-2:
The on-chip POR circuit holds the chip in Reset until
VDD has reached a high enough level for proper
operation. To take advantage of the POR, simply
connect the MCLR pin through a resistor to VDD. This
will eliminate external RC components usually needed
to create Power-on Reset. A maximum rise time for
VDD is required. See Section 15.0 “Electrical Specifications” for details. If the BOD is enabled, the maximum rise time specification does not apply. The BOD
circuitry will keep the device in Reset until VDD reaches
VBOD (see Section 12.3.5 “Brown-Out Detect
(BOD)”).
Note:
The POR circuit does not produce an
internal Reset when VDD declines. To
re-enable the POR, VDD must reach Vss
for a minimum of 100 µs.
When the device starts normal operation (exits the
Reset condition), device operating parameters (i.e.,
voltage, 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
conditions are met.
For additional information, refer to Application Note
AN607, “Power-up Trouble Shooting” (DS00607).

POWER-ON RESET (POR)
The on-chip POR circuit holds the chip in Reset until
VDD has reached a high enough level for proper
operation. To take advantage of the POR, simply
connect the MCLR pin through a resistor to VDD. This
will eliminate external RC components usually needed
to create Power-on Reset. A maximum rise time for
VDD is required. See Section 15.0 “Electrical Specifications” for details. If the BOD is enabled, the maximum rise time specification does not apply. The BOD
circuitry will keep the device in Reset until VDD reaches
VBOD (see Section 12.3.5 “Brown-Out Detect
(BOD)”).
Note:
It should be noted that a WDT Reset does not drive
MCLR pin low.
The behavior of the ESD protection on the MCLR pin
has been altered from early devices of this family.
Voltages applied to the pin that exceed its specification
can result in both MCLR Resets and excessive current
beyond the device specification during the ESD event.
For this reason, Microchip recommends that the MCLR
pin no longer be tied directly to VDD. The use of an RC
network, as shown in Figure 12-2, is suggested.
RECOMMENDED MCLR
CIRCUIT
The POR circuit does not produce an
internal Reset when VDD declines. To
re-enable the POR, VDD must reach Vss
for a minimum of 100 µs.
When the device starts normal operation (exits the
Reset condition), device operating parameters (i.e.,
voltage, 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
conditions are met.
For additional information, refer to Application Note
AN607, “Power-up Trouble Shooting” (DS00607).
An internal MCLR option is enabled by clearing the
MCLRE bit in the Configuration Word register. When
cleared, MCLR is internally tied to VDD and an internal
weak pull-up is enabled for the MCLR pin. In-Circuit
Serial Programming is not affected by selecting the
internal MCLR option.

12.3.4
POWER-UP TIMER (PWRT)
If VDD falls below VBOD for greater than parameter
(TBOD) (see Section 15.0 “Electrical Specifications”), the Brown-out situation will reset the device.
This will occur regardless of VDD slew rate. A Reset is
not insured to occur if VDD falls below VBOD for less
than parameter (TBOD).
The Power-up Timer provides a fixed 64 ms (nominal)
time-out on power-up only, from POR or Brown-out
Detect. The Power-up Timer operates from the 31 kHz
LFINTOSC oscillator. For more information, see
Section 3.4 “Internal Clock Modes”. The chip is kept
in Reset as long as PWRT is active. The PWRT delay
allows the VDD to rise to an acceptable level. A configuration bit, PWRTE, can disable (if set) or enable (if
cleared or programmed) the Power-up Timer. The
Power-up Timer should be enabled when Brown-out
Detect is enabled, although it is not required.
On any Reset (Power-on, Brown-out Detect, Watchdog
timer, etc.), the chip will remain in Reset until VDD rises
above VBOD (see Figure 12-3). The Power-up Timer
will now be invoked, if enabled and will keep the chip in
Reset an additional 64 ms.
Note:
The Power-up Timer delay will vary from chip-to-chip
and vary due to:
• VDD variation
• Temperature variation
• Process variation
See DC parameters for details
“Electrical Specifications”).
12.3.5
If VDD drops below VBOD while the Power-up Timer is
running, the chip will go back into a Brown-out Detect
and the Power-up Timer will be re-initialized. Once VDD
rises above VBOD, the Power-up Timer will execute a
64 ms Reset.

BOD CALIBRATION
The PIC16F684 stores the BOD calibration values in
fuses located in the Calibration Word register (2008h).
The Calibration Word register is not erased when using
the specified bulk erase sequence in the “PIC12F6XX/
16F6XX
Memory
Programming
Specification”
(DS41204) and thus, does not require reprogramming.
The BODEN0 and BODEN1 bits in the Configuration
Word register select one of four BOD modes. Two
modes have been added to allow software or hardware
control of the BOD enable. When BODEN<1:0> = 01,
the SBODEN bit (PCON<4>) enables/disables the
BOD allowing it to be controlled in software. By selecting BODEN<1:0>, the BOD is automatically disabled in
Sleep to conserve power and enabled on wake-up. In
this mode, the SBODEN bit is disabled. See
Register 12-1 for the configuration word definition.

TIME-OUT SEQUENCE
12.3.8
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows: first,
PWRT time-out is invoked after POR has expired, then
OST is activated after the PWRT time-out has expired.
The total time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration and PWRTE bit status. For example, in EC mode
with PWRTE bit erased (PWRT disabled), there will be
no time-out at all. Figure 12-4, Figure 12-5 and
Figure 12-6 depict time-out sequences. The device can
execute code from the INTOSC while OST is active by
enabling Two-Speed Start-up or Fail-Safe Monitor (see
Section 3.6.2 “Two-Speed Start-up Sequence” and
Section 3.7 “Fail-Safe Clock Monitor”).
The Power Control register PCON (address 8Eh) has
two status bits to indicate what type of Reset that last
occurred.
Bit 0 is BOD (Brown-out). BOD is unknown on Poweron Reset. It must then be set by the user and checked
on subsequent Resets to see if BOD = 0, indicating that
a Brown-out has occurred. The BOD Status bit is a
“don’t care” and is not necessarily predictable if the
brown-out circuit is disabled (BODEN<1:0> = 00 in the
Configuration Word register).
Bit 1 is POR (Power-on Reset). It is a ‘0’ on Power-on
Reset and unaffected otherwise. The user must write a
‘1’ to this bit following a Power-on Reset. On a
subsequent Reset, if POR is ‘0’, it will indicate that a
Power-on Reset has occurred (i.e., VDD may have
gone too low).
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, if MCLR
is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire. Then,
bringing MCLR high will begin execution immediately
(see Figure 12-5). This is useful for testing purposes or
to synchronize more than one PIC16F684 device
operating in parallel.
For more information, see Section 4.2.3 “Ultra LowPower Wake-up” and Section 12.3.5 “Brown-Out
Detect (BOD)”.

Interrupts
For external interrupt events, such as the INT pin or
PORTA change interrupt, the interrupt latency will be
three or four instruction cycles. The exact latency
depends upon when the interrupt event occurs (see
Figure 12-8). The latency is the same for one or twocycle instructions. Once in the Interrupt Service
Routine, the source(s) of the interrupt can be
determined by polling the interrupt flag bits. The
interrupt flag bit(s) must be cleared in software before
re-enabling interrupts to avoid multiple interrupt
requests.
The PIC16F684 has 11 sources of interrupt:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
External Interrupt RA2/INT
TMR0 Overflow Interrupt
PORTA Change Interrupts
2 Comparator Interrupts
A/D Interrupt
Timer1 Overflow Interrupt
Timer2 Match Interrupt
EEPROM Data Write Interrupt
Fail-Safe Clock Monitor Interrupt
Enhanced CCP Interrupt
Note 1: Individual interrupt flag bits are set,
regardless of the status of their
corresponding mask bit or the GIE bit.
2: When an instruction that clears the GIE
bit is executed, any interrupts that were
pending for execution in the next cycle
are ignored. The interrupts, which were
ignored, are still pending to be serviced
when the GIE bit is set again.
The Interrupt Control register (INTCON) and Peripheral
Interrupt Request Register 1 (PIR1) record individual
interrupt requests in flag bits. The INTCON register
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 interrupts. Individual interrupts can be
disabled through their corresponding enable bits in the
INTCON register and PIE1 register. GIE is cleared on
Reset.
The Return from Interrupt instruction, RETFIE, exits
the interrupt routine, as well as sets the GIE bit,
which re-enables unmasked interrupts.
The following interrupt flags are contained in the
INTCON register:
• INT Pin Interrupt
• PORTA Change Interrupt
• TMR0 Overflow Interrupt
The peripheral interrupt flags are contained in the
special register, PIR1. The corresponding interrupt
enable bit is contained in special register, PIE1.
The following interrupt flags are contained in the PIR1
register:
•
•
•
•

For additional information on Timer1, Timer2,
comparators, A/D, data EEPROM or Enhanced CCP
modules, refer to the respective peripheral section.
12.4.1
RA2/INT INTERRUPT
External interrupt on RA2/INT pin is edge-triggered;
either rising if the INTEDG bit (Option<6>) is set, or
falling, if the INTEDG bit is clear. When a valid edge
appears on the RA2/INT pin, the INTF bit
(INTCON<1>) is set. This interrupt can be disabled by
clearing the INTE control bit (INTCON<4>). The INTF
bit must be cleared in software in the Interrupt Service
Routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The RA2/INT
interrupt can wake-up the processor from Sleep, if the
INTE bit was set prior to going into Sleep. The status of
the GIE bit decides whether or not the processor
branches to the interrupt vector following wake-up
(0004h). See Section 12.7 “Power-Down Mode
(Sleep)” for details on Sleep and Figure 12-10 for
timing of wake-up from Sleep through RA2/INT
interrupt.
Note:
The ANSEL (91h) and CMCON0 (19h)
registers must be initialized to configure
an analog channel as a digital input. Pins
configured as analog inputs will read ‘0’.
When an interrupt is serviced:
• The GIE is cleared to disable any further interrupt.
• The return address is pushed onto the stack.
• The PC is loaded with 0004h.

TMR0 INTERRUPT
12.4.3
An overflow (FFh → 00h) in the TMR0 register will set
the T0IF (INTCON<2>) bit. The interrupt can be
enabled/disabled
by
setting/clearing
T0IE
(INTCON<5>) bit. See Section 5.0 “Timer0 Module”
for operation of the Timer0 module.
An input change on PORTA change sets the RAIF
(INTCON<0>) bit. The interrupt can be enabled/
disabled by setting/clearing the RAIE (INTCON<3>)
bit. Plus, individual pins can be configured through the
IOCA register.
Note:
FIGURE 12-7:

If a change on the I/O pin should occur
when the read operation is being executed
(start of the Q2 cycle), then the RAIF
interrupt flag may not get set.

Context Saving During Interrupts
During an interrupt, only the return PC value is saved
on the stack. Typically, users may wish to save key
registers during an interrupt (e.g., W and Status
registers). This must be implemented in software.
Since the lower 16 bytes of all banks are common in the
PIC16F684 (see Figure 2-2), temporary holding
registers, W_TEMP and STATUS_TEMP, should be
placed in here. These 16 locations do not require
banking and therefore, make it easier to context save
and restore. The same code shown in Example 12-1
can be used to:
•
•
•
•
•
Store the W register
Store the Status register
Execute the ISR code
Restore the Status (and Bank Select Bit register)
Restore the W register
Note:
The PIC16F684 normally does not require
saving the PCLATH. However, if
computed GOTOs are used in the ISR and
the main code, the PCLATH must be
saved and restored in the ISR.

12.6
Watchdog Timer (WDT)
For PIC16F684, the WDT has been modified from
previous PIC16 devices. The new WDT is code and
functionally compatible with previous PIC16 WDT
modules and adds a 16-bit prescaler to the WDT. This
allows the user to have a scaler value for the WDT and
TMR0 at the same time. In addition, the WDT time-out
value can be extended to 268 seconds. WDT is cleared
under certain conditions described in Table 12-7.
A new prescaler has been added to the path between
the INTRC and the multiplexers used to select the path
for the WDT. This prescaler is 16 bits and can be
programmed to divide the INTRC by 32 to 65536,
giving the WDT a nominal range of 1 ms to 268s.
12.6.2
WDT CONTROL
The WDTE bit is located in the Configuration Word
register. When set, the WDT runs continuously.
The WDT derives its time base from the 31 kHz
LFINTOSC. The LTS bit does not reflect that the
LFINTOSC is enabled.
When the WDTE bit in the Configuration Word register
is set, the SWDTEN bit (WDTCON<0>) has no effect.
If WDTE is clear, then the SWDTEN bit can be used to
enable and disable the WDT. Setting the bit will enable
it and clearing the bit will disable it.
The value of WDTCON is ‘---0 1000’ on all Resets.
This gives a nominal time base of 16 ms, which is
compatible with the time base generated with previous
PIC16 microcontroller versions.
The PSA and PS<2:0> bits (OPTION_REG) have the
same function as in previous versions of the PIC16
Family of microcontrollers. See Section 5.0 “Timer0
Module” for more information.
12.6.1
Note:
WDT OSCILLATOR
When the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
is invoked, the WDT is held in Reset,
because the WDT Ripple Counter is used
by the OST to perform the oscillator delay
count. When the OST count has expired,
the WDT will begin counting (if enabled).

Power-Down Mode (Sleep)
The Power-down mode is entered by executing a
SLEEP instruction.
If the Watchdog Timer is enabled:
•
•
•
•
•
WDT will be cleared but keeps running.
PD bit in the Status register is cleared.
TO bit is set.
Oscillator driver is turned off.
I/O ports maintain the status they had before SLEEP
was executed (driving high, low or high-impedance).
For lowest current consumption in this mode, all I/O
pins should be either at VDD or VSS, with no external
circuitry drawing current from the I/O pin and the
comparators and CVREF should be disabled. I/O pins
that are high-impedance inputs should be pulled 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 PORTA should be
considered.
The MCLR pin must be at a logic high level.
Note:
12.7.1
It should be noted that a Reset generated
by a WDT time-out does not drive MCLR
pin low.
WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP
The device can wake-up from Sleep through one of the
following events:
1.
2.
3.
External Reset input on MCLR pin.
Watchdog Timer wake-up (if WDT was
enabled).
Interrupt from RA2/INT pin, PORTA change or a
peripheral interrupt.
The first event will cause a device Reset. The two latter
events are considered a continuation of program
execution. The TO 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. TO bit is cleared if WDT wake-up
occurred.
The following peripheral interrupts can wake the device
from Sleep:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
TMR1 interrupt. Timer1 must be operating as an
asynchronous counter.
ECCP Capture mode interrupt.
Special event trigger (Timer1 in Asynchronous
mode using an external clock).
A/D conversion (when A/D clock source is RC).
EEPROM write operation completion.
Comparator output changes state.
Interrupt-on-change.
External Interrupt from INT pin.
 2004 Microchip Technology Inc.
Other peripherals cannot generate interrupts since
during Sleep, no on-chip clocks are present.
When the SLEEP instruction is being executed, the next
instruction (PC + 1) is prefetched. For the device to
wake-up through an interrupt event, the corresponding
interrupt enable bit must be 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
instruction after the SLEEP instruction. If the GIE bit is
set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after
the SLEEP instruction, then branches to the interrupt
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.
Note:
If the global interrupts are disabled (GIE is
cleared), but any interrupt source has both
its interrupt enable bit and the corresponding interrupt flag bits set, the device will
immediately wake-up from Sleep. The
SLEEP instruction is completely executed.
The WDT is cleared when the device wakes up from
Sleep, regardless of the source of wake-up.
12.7.2
WAKE-UP USING INTERRUPTS
When global interrupts are disabled (GIE cleared) and
any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit
and interrupt flag bit set, one of the following will occur:
• If the interrupt occurs before the execution of a
SLEEP instruction, the SLEEP instruction will
complete as a NOP. Therefore, the WDT and WDT
prescaler and postscaler (if enabled) will not be
cleared, the TO bit will not be set and the PD bit
will not be cleared.
• If the interrupt occurs during or after the
execution of a SLEEP instruction, the device will
immediately wake-up from Sleep. The SLEEP
instruction will be completely executed before the
wake-up. Therefore, the WDT and WDT prescaler
and postscaler (if enabled) 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 instruction completes. To
determine whether a SLEEP instruction executed, 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 instruction
should be executed before a SLEEP instruction.

Code Protection
If the code protection bit(s) have not been
programmed, the on-chip program memory can be
read out using ICSP™ for verification purposes.
Note:
PC + 2
The entire data EEPROM and Flash
program memory will be erased when the
code protection is turned off. See the
“PIC12F6XX/16F6XX Memory Programming Specification” (DS41204) for more
information.
ID Locations
Four memory locations (2000h-2003h) are designated
as ID locations where the user can store checksum or
other code identification numbers. These locations are
not accessible during normal execution but are
readable and writable during Program/Verify mode.
Only the Least Significant 7 bits of the ID locations are
used.
12.10 In-Circuit Serial Programming
The PIC16F684 microcontrollers can be serially
programmed while in the end application circuit. This is
simply done with two lines for clock and data and three
other lines for:
This allows customers to manufacture boards with
unprogrammed devices and then program the microcontroller just before shipping the product. This also
allows the most recent firmware or a custom firmware
to be programmed.
The device is placed into a Program/Verify mode by
holding the RA0 and RA1 pins low, while raising the
MCLR (VPP) pin from VIL to VIHH. See the “PIC12F6XX/
16F6XX
Memory
Programming
Specification”
(DS41204) for more information. RA0 becomes the
programming data and RA1 becomes the programming
clock. Both RA0 and RA1 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 command is then supplied to the device.
Depending on the command, 14 bits of program data
are then supplied to or from the device, depending on
whether the command was a load or a read. For
complete details of serial programming, please refer to
the “PIC12F6XX/16F6XX Memory Programming
Specification” (DS41204).

12.11 In-Circuit Debugger
Since in-circuit debugging requires access to the data
and MCLR pins, MPLAB® ICD 2 development with an
14-pin device is not practical. A special 20-pin
PIC16F684 ICD device is used with MPLAB ICD 2 to
provide separate clock, data and MCLR pins and frees
all normally available pins to the user.
A special debugging adapter allows the ICD device to
be used in place of a PIC16F684 device. The
debugging adapter is the only source of the ICD device.
When the ICD pin on the PIC16F684 ICD device is held
low, the In-Circuit Debugger functionality is enabled.
This function allows simple debugging functions when
used with MPLAB ICD 2. When the microcontroller has
this feature enabled, some of the resources are not
available for general use. Table 12-9 shows which
features are consumed by the background debugger.

INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY
The PIC16F684 instruction set is highly orthogonal and
is comprised of three basic categories:
• Byte-oriented operations
• Bit-oriented operations
• Literal and control operations
For example, a CLRF GPIO instruction will read GPIO,
clear all the data bits, then write the result back to
GPIO. This example would have the unintended result
of clearing the condition that set the GPIF flag.
TABLE 13-1:
Each PIC16 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 formats for each of the categories
is presented in Figure 13-1, while the various opcode
fields are summarized in Table 13-1.
Field
Table 13-2 lists the instructions recognized by the
MPASMTM assembler. A complete description of each
instruction is also available in the “PICmicro® MidRange MCU Family Reference Manual” (DS33023).
For byte-oriented instructions, ‘f’ represents a file
register designator and ‘d’ represents a destination
designator. The file register designator specifies which
file register is to be used by the instruction.
The destination 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
designator, which selects the bit affected by the
operation, while ‘f’ represents the address of the file in
which the bit is located.
Register file address (0x00 to 0x7F)
W
Working register (accumulator)
b
Bit address within an 8-bit file register
k
Literal field, constant data or label
x
Don’t care location (= 0 or 1).
The assembler will generate code with x = 0.
It is the recommended form of use for
compatibility with all Microchip software tools.
d
Destination select; d = 0: store result in W,
d = 1: store result in file register f.
Default is d = 1.
PC
Program Counter
TO
Time-out bit
PD
Power-down bit
FIGURE 13-1:
One instruction cycle consists of four oscillator periods;
for an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, this gives a normal
instruction execution time of 1 µs. All instructions are
executed within a single instruction cycle, unless a
conditional test is true, or the program counter is
changed as a result of an instruction. When this occurs,
the execution takes two instruction cycles, with the
second cycle executed as a NOP.
To maintain upward compatibility with
future products, do not use the OPTION
and TRIS instructions.
All instruction examples use the format ‘0xhh’ to
represent a hexadecimal number, where ‘h’ signifies a
hexadecimal digit.

Any instruction that specifies a file register as part of
the instruction performs a Read-Modify-Write (R-M-W)
operation. The register is read, the data is modified,
and the result is stored according to either the instruction, or the destination designator ‘d’. A read operation
is performed on a register even if the instruction writes
to that register.

When an I/O register is modified as a function of itself (e.g., MOVF GPIO, 1), the 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’.
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.
If the Program Counter (PC) is modified, or a conditional test is true, the instruction requires two cycles. The second
cycle is executed as a NOP.
Additional information on the mid-range instruction set is available in the “PICmicro® Mid-Range MCU
Family Reference Manual” (DS33023).

MPLAB Integrated Development
Environment Software
The MPLAB IDE software brings an ease of software
development previously unseen in the 8/16-bit microcontroller market. The MPLAB IDE is a Windows®
based application that contains:
• An interface to debugging tools
- simulator
- programmer (sold separately)
- emulator (sold separately)
- in-circuit debugger (sold separately)
• A full-featured editor with color coded context
• A multiple project manager
• Customizable data windows with direct edit of
contents
• High-level source code debugging
• Mouse over variable inspection
• Extensive on-line help
The MPLAB IDE allows you to:
• Edit your source files (either assembly or C)
• One touch assemble (or compile) and download
to PICmicro emulator and simulator tools
(automatically updates all project information)
• Debug using:
- source files (assembly or C)
- mixed assembly and C
- machine code
MPLAB IDE supports multiple debugging tools in a
single development paradigm, from the cost effective
simulators, through low-cost in-circuit debuggers, to
full-featured emulators. This eliminates the learning
curve when upgrading to tools with increasing flexibility
and power.
14.2
MPASM Assembler
The MPASM assembler is a full-featured, universal
macro assembler for all PICmicro MCUs.
The MPASM assembler generates relocatable object
files for the MPLINK object linker, Intel® standard HEX
files, MAP files to detail memory usage and symbol reference, absolute LST files that contain source lines and
generated machine code and COFF files for
debugging.
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

C Compilers
14.6
The MPLAB C17 and MPLAB C18 Code Development
Systems are complete ANSI C compilers for
Microchip’s PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX family of
microcontrollers. These compilers provide powerful
integration capabilities, superior code optimization and
ease of use not found with other compilers.
For easy source level debugging, the compilers provide
symbol information that is optimized to the MPLAB IDE
debugger.
14.4
MPLINK Object Linker/
MPLIB Object Librarian
The MPLINK object linker combines relocatable
objects created by the MPASM assembler and the
MPLAB C17 and MPLAB C18 C compilers. It can link
relocatable objects from precompiled libraries, using
directives from a linker script.
The MPLIB object librarian manages the creation and
modification of library files of precompiled code. When
a routine from a library is called from a source file, only
the modules that contain that routine will be linked in
with the application. This allows large libraries to be
used efficiently in many different applications.
The object linker/library features include:
• Efficient linking of single libraries instead of many
smaller files
• Enhanced code maintainability by grouping
related modules together
• Flexible creation of libraries with easy module
listing, replacement, deletion and extraction
14.5
MPLAB C30 C Compiler
MPLAB C30 is distributed with a complete ANSI C
standard library. All library functions have been validated and conform to the ANSI C library standard. The
library includes functions for string manipulation,
dynamic memory allocation, data conversion, timekeeping and math functions (trigonometric, exponential
and hyperbolic). The compiler provides symbolic
information for high-level source debugging with the
MPLAB IDE.
DS41202C-page 122
MPLAB ASM30 assembler produces relocatable
machine code from symbolic assembly language for
dsPIC30F devices. MPLAB C30 compiler uses the
assembler to produce it’s object file. The assembler
generates relocatable object files that can then be
archived or linked with other relocatable object files and
archives to create an executable file. Notable features
of the assembler include:
•

Power dissipation is calculated as follows: PDIS = VDD x {IDD – ∑ IOH} + ∑ {(VDD – VOH) x IOH} + ∑(VOl x IOL).
† NOTICE: Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the
device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those
indicated in the operation listings of this specification is not implied. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for
extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note:
Voltage spikes below VSS at the MCLR pin, inducing currents greater than 80 mA, may cause latch-up.
Thus, a series resistor of 50-100 Ω should be used when applying a “low” level to the MCLR pin, rather than
pulling this pin directly to VSS.

Note 1: The test conditions for all IDD measurements in active operation mode are: OSC1 = external square wave,
from rail to rail; all I/O pins tri-stated, pulled to VDD; MCLR = VDD; WDT disabled.
2: The supply current is mainly a function of the operating voltage and frequency. Other factors, such as I/O
pin loading and switching rate, oscillator type, internal code execution pattern and temperature, also have
an impact on the current consumption.
3: The peripheral current is the sum of the base IDD or IPD and the additional current consumed when this
peripheral is enabled. The peripheral ∆ current can be determined by subtracting the base IDD or IPD
current from this limit. Max values should be used when calculating total current consumption.
4: The power-down current in Sleep mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power-down current is
measured with the part in Sleep mode, with all I/O pins in high-impedance state and tied to VDD.

† Data in ‘Typ’ column is at 5V, 25°C unless otherwise stated. These parameters are for design guidance
only and are not tested.
Note 1: Instruction cycle period (TCY) equals four times the input oscillator time base period. All specified values
are based on characterization data for that particular oscillator type under standard operating conditions
with the device executing code. Exceeding these specified limits may result in an unstable oscillator
operation and/or higher than expected current consumption. All devices are tested to operate at ‘min’
values with an external clock applied to OSC1 pin. When an external clock input is used, the ‘max’ cycle
time limit is ‘DC’ (no clock) for all devices.

In the event the full Microchip part number cannot be marked on one line, it will
be carried over to the next line thus limiting the number of available characters
for customer specific information.
Standard PICmicro device marking consists of Microchip part number, year code, week code, and
traceability code. For PICmicro device marking beyond this, certain price adders apply. Please check
with your Microchip Sales Office. For QTP devices, any special marking adders are included in QTP
