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.

Note 1: Optional multiplexing of CCP2 input/output with RB3 is enabled by selection of configuration bit.  
2: The high order bits of the Direct Address for the RAM are from the BSR register (except for the MOVFFinstruction).  
3: Many of the general purpose I/O pins are multiplexed with one or more peripheral module functions. The multiplexing combinations  
are device dependent.

2: The high order bits of the Direct Address for the RAM are from the BSR register (except for the MOVFFinstruction).  
3: Many of the general purpose I/O pins are multiplexed with one or more peripheral module functions. The multiplexing combinations  
are device dependent.

2.2  
Crystal Oscillator/Ceramic  
Resonators  
Note 1: Higher capacitance increases the stability  
of the oscillator, but also increases the  
start-up time.  
In XT, LP, HS or HS+PLL Oscillator modes, a crystal or  
ceramic resonator is connected to the OSC1 and  
OSC2 pins to establish oscillation. Figure 2-1 shows  
the pin connections.  
2: When operating below 3V VDD, or when  
using certain ceramic resonators at any  
voltage, it may be necessary to use  
high-gain HS mode, try a lower frequency  
resonator, or switch to a crystal oscillator.  
The PIC18FXX2 oscillator design requires the use of a  
parallel cut crystal.  
Note: Use of a series cut crystal may give a fre-  
quency out of the crystal manufacturers

For timing-insensitive applications, the “RC” and  
“RCIO” device options offer additional cost savings.  
The RC oscillator frequency is a function of the supply  
voltage, the resistor (REXT) and capacitor (CEXT) val-  
ues and the operating temperature. In addition to this,  
the oscillator frequency will vary from unit to unit due to  
normal process parameter variation. Furthermore, the  
difference in lead frame capacitance between package  
types will also affect the oscillation frequency, espe-  
cially for low CEXT values. The user also needs to take  
into account variation due to tolerance of external R  
and C components used. Figure 2-3 shows how the  
R/C combination is connected.

Oscillator Switching Feature  
The PIC18FXX2 devices include a feature that allows  
the system clock source to be switched from the main  
oscillator to an alternate low frequency clock source.  
For the PIC18FXX2 devices, this alternate clock source  
is the Timer1 oscillator. If a low frequency crystal (32  
kHz, for example) has been attached to the Timer1  
oscillator pins and the Timer1 oscillator has been  
enabled, the device can switch to a Low Power Execu-

2.6.1  
SYSTEM CLOCK SWITCH BIT  
Note: The Timer1 oscillator must be enabled and  
operating to switch the system clock  
source. The Timer1 oscillator is enabled by  
setting the T1OSCEN bit in the Timer1  
control register (T1CON). If the Timer1  
oscillator is not enabled, then any write to  
the SCS bit will be ignored (SCS bit forced  
cleared) and the main oscillator will  
continue to be the system clock source.  
The system clock source switching is performed under  
software control. The system clock switch bit, SCS  
(OSCCON<0>) controls the clock switching. When the  
SCS bit is ’0’, the system clock source comes from the  
main oscillator that is selected by the FOSC configura-  
tion bits in Configuration Register1H. When the SCS bit  
is set, the system clock source will come from the  
Timer1 oscillator. The SCS bit is cleared on all forms of  
RESET.

A timing diagram indicating the transition from the main  
oscillator to the Timer1 oscillator is shown in  
Figure 2-8. The Timer1 oscillator is assumed to be run-  
ning all the time. After the SCS bit is set, the processor  
is frozen at the next occurring Q1 cycle. After eight syn-  
chronization cycles are counted from the Timer1 oscil-  
lator, operation resumes. No additional delays are  
required after the synchronization cycles.  
2.6.2  
OSCILLATOR TRANSITIONS  
The PIC18FXX2 devices contain circuitry to prevent  
“glitches” when switching between oscillator sources.  
Essentially, the circuitry waits for eight rising edges of  
the clock source that the processor is switching to. This  
ensures that the new clock source is stable and that its  
pulse width will not be less than the shortest pulse  
width of the two clock sources.

Note 1: Delay on internal system clock is eight oscillator cycles for synchronization.  
The sequence of events that takes place when switch-  
ing from the Timer1 oscillator to the main oscillator will  
depend on the mode of the main oscillator. In addition  
to eight clock cycles of the main oscillator, additional  
delays may take place.  
If the main oscillator is configured for an external crys-  
tal (HS, XT, LP), then the transition will take place after  
an oscillator start-up time (TOST) has occurred. A timing  
diagram, indicating the transition from the Timer1 oscil-  
lator to the main oscillator for HS, XT and LP modes, is

If the main oscillator is configured for HS-PLL mode, an  
oscillator start-up time (TOST) plus an additional PLL  
time-out (TPLL) will occur. The PLL time-out is typically  
2 ms and allows the PLL to lock to the main oscillator  
frequency. A timing diagram indicating the transition  
from the Timer1 oscillator to the main oscillator for  
HS-PLL mode is shown in Figure 2-10.

switching currents have been removed, SLEEP mode  
achieves the lowest current consumption of the device  
(only leakage currents). Enabling any on-chip feature  
that will operate during SLEEP will increase the current  
consumed during SLEEP. The user can wake from  
SLEEP through external RESET, Watchdog Timer  
Reset, or through an interrupt.  
2.7  
Effects of SLEEP Mode on the  
On-Chip Oscillator  
When the device executes a SLEEP instruction, the  
on-chip clocks and oscillator are turned off and the  
device is held at the beginning of an instruction cycle  
(Q1 state). With the oscillator off, the OSC1 and OSC2  
signals will stop oscillating. Since all the transistor

With the PLL enabled (HS/PLL Oscillator mode), the  
2.8  
Power-up Delays  
time-out sequence following a Power-on Reset is differ-  
ent from other Oscillator modes. The time-out  
sequence is as follows: First, the PWRT time-out is  
invoked after a POR time delay has expired. Then, the  
Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) is invoked. However,  
this is still not a sufficient amount of time to allow the  
PLL to lock at high frequencies. The PWRT timer is  
used to provide an additional fixed 2 ms (nominal)  
time-out to allow the PLL ample time to lock to the  
incoming clock frequency.  
Power up delays are controlled by two timers, so that  
no external RESET circuitry is required for most appli-  
cations. The delays ensure that the device is kept in  
RESET, until the device power supply and clock are  
stable. For additional information on RESET operation,  
see Section 3.0.  
The first timer is the Power-up Timer (PWRT), which  
optionally provides a fixed delay of 72 ms (nominal) on  
power-up only (POR and BOR). The second timer is  
the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST), intended to keep  
the chip in RESET until the crystal oscillator is stable.

PIC18FXX2  
Most registers are not affected by a WDT wake-up,  
since this is viewed as the resumption of normal oper-  
ation. Status bits from the RCON register, RI, TO, PD,  
POR and BOR, are set or cleared differently in different  
RESET situations, as indicated in Table 3-2. These bits  
are used in software to determine the nature of the  
RESET. See Table 3-3 for a full description of the  
RESET states of all registers.  
3.0  
RESET  
The PIC18FXXX differentiates between various kinds  
of RESET:  
a) Power-on Reset (POR)  
b) MCLR Reset during normal operation  
c) MCLR Reset during SLEEP  
d) Watchdog Timer (WDT) Reset (during normal  
operation)  
A simplified block diagram of the On-Chip Reset Circuit  
is shown in Figure 3-1.  
e) Programmable Brown-out Reset (BOR)  
f) RESETInstruction  
The Enhanced MCU devices have a MCLR noise filter  
in the MCLR Reset path. The filter will detect and  
ignore small pulses.  
g) Stack Full Reset  
h) Stack Underflow Reset  
The MCLR pin is not driven low by any internal  
RESETS, including the WDT.  
Most registers are unaffected by a RESET. Their status  
is unknown on POR and unchanged by all other  
RESETS. The other registers are forced to a “RESET  
state” on Power-on Reset, MCLR, WDT Reset, Brown-  
out Reset, MCLR Reset during SLEEP and by the  
RESETinstruction.

Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)  
A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when

cuitry, just tie the MCLR pin directly (or through a resis-  
tor) to VDD. This will eliminate external RC components  
usually needed to create a Power-on Reset delay. A

The OST time-out is invoked only for XT, LP and HS  
modes and only on Power-on Reset or wake-up from  
SLEEP.  
When the device starts normal operation (i.e., exits the  
RESET condition), device operating parameters (volt-  
age, frequency, temperature, etc.) must be met to  
ensure operation. If these conditions are not met, the  
device must be held in RESET until the operating  
conditions are met.  
3.4  
PLL Lock Time-out  
With the PLL enabled, the time-out sequence following  
a Power-on Reset is different from other Oscillator  
modes. A portion of the Power-up Timer is used to pro-  
vide a fixed time-out that is sufficient for the PLL to lock  
to the main oscillator frequency. This PLL lock time-out  
(TPLL) is typically 2 ms and follows the oscillator  
start-up time-out (OST).

3.5  
Brown-out Reset (BOR)  
VDD  
A configuration bit, BOREN, can disable (if clear/  
programmed), or enable (if set) the Brown-out Reset  
circuitry. If VDD falls below parameter D005 for greater  
than parameter 35, the brown-out situation will reset  
the chip. A RESET may not occur if VDD falls below  
parameter D005 for less than parameter 35. The chip  
will remain in Brown-out Reset until VDD rises above  
BVDD. If the Power-up Timer is enabled, it will be  
invoked after VDD rises above BVDD; it then will keep  
the chip in RESET for an additional time delay  
(parameter 33). If VDD drops below BVDD while the  
Power-up Timer is running, the chip will go back into a  
Brown-out Reset and the Power-up Timer will be initial-  
ized. Once VDD rises above BVDD, the Power-up Timer  
will execute the additional time delay.

the event of MCLR/VPP pin breakdown due to  
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) or Electrical  
Overstress (EOS).  
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows:  
First, PWRT time-out is invoked after the POR time  
delay has expired. Then, OST is activated. The total  
time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration and  
the status of the PWRT. For example, in RC mode with  
the PWRT disabled, there will be no time-out at all.  
Figure 3-3, Figure 3-4, Figure 3-5, Figure 3-6 and  
Figure 3-7 depict time-out sequences on power-up.  
3.2  
Power-up Timer (PWRT)  
The Power-up Timer provides a fixed nominal time-out  
(parameter 33) only on power-up from the POR. The  
Power-up Timer operates on an internal RC oscillator.  
The chip is kept in RESET as long as the PWRT is  
active. The PWRT’s time delay allows VDD to rise to an  
acceptable level. A configuration bit is provided to  
enable/disable the PWRT.  
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, if MCLR  
is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire.  
Bringing MCLR high will begin execution immediately  
(Figure 3-5). This is useful for testing purposes or to  
synchronize more than one PIC18FXXX device operat-  
ing in parallel.  
The power-up time delay will vary from chip-to-chip due  
to VDD, temperature and process variation. See DC  
parameter D033 for details.

Special Function Registers, while Table 3-3 shows the

MEMORY ORGANIZATION  
There are three memory blocks in Enhanced MCU  
devices. These memory blocks are:  
• Program Memory  
• Data RAM  
• Data EEPROM  
Data and program memory use separate busses,  
which allows for concurrent access of these blocks.

memory and Data EEPROM is provided in Section 5.0  
and Section 6.0, respectively.  
4.1  
Program Memory Organization  
A 21-bit program counter is capable of addressing the  
2-Mbyte program memory space. Accessing a location  
between the physically implemented memory and the  
2-Mbyte address will cause a read of all ’0’s (a NOP  
instruction).  
The PIC18F252 and PIC18F452 each have 32 Kbytes  
of FLASH memory, while the PIC18F242 and  
PIC18F442 have 16 Kbytes of FLASH. This means that  
PIC18FX52 devices can store up to 16K of single word  
instructions, and PIC18FX42 devices can store up to  
8K of single word instructions.  
The RESET vector address is at 0000h and the  
interrupt vector addresses are at 0008h and 0018h.  
Figure 4-1 shows the Program Memory Map for  
PIC18F242/442 devices and Figure 4-2 shows the  
Program Memory Map for PIC18F252/452 devices.

4.2.2  
RETURN STACK POINTER  
(STKPTR)  
4.2  
Return Address Stack  
The return address stack allows any combination of up  
to 31 program calls and interrupts to occur. The PC  
(Program Counter) is pushed onto the stack when a  
CALLor RCALLinstruction is executed, or an interrupt  
is acknowledged. The PC value is pulled off the stack  
on a RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction.  
PCLATU and PCLATH are not affected by any of the  
RETURNor CALLinstructions.  
The STKPTR register contains the stack pointer value,  
the STKFUL (stack full) status bit, and the STKUNF  
(stack underflow) status bits. Register 4-1 shows the  
STKPTR register. The value of the stack pointer can be  
0 through 31. The stack pointer increments when val-  
ues are pushed onto the stack and decrements when  
values are popped off the stack. At RESET, the stack  
pointer value will be 0. The user may read and write the  
stack pointer value. This feature can be used by a Real  
Time Operating System for return stack maintenance.  
The stack operates as a 31-word by 21-bit RAM and a  
5-bit stack pointer, with the stack pointer initialized to  
00000b after all RESETS. There is no RAM associated  
with stack pointer 00000b. This is only a RESET value.  
During a CALLtype instruction, causing a push onto the  
stack, the stack pointer is first incremented and the  
RAM location pointed to by the stack pointer is written  
with the contents of the PC. During a RETURN type  
instruction, causing a pop from the stack, the contents  
of the RAM location pointed to by the STKPTR are  
transferred to the PC and then the stack pointer is  
decremented.  
After the PC is pushed onto the stack 31 times (without  
popping any values off the stack), the STKFUL bit is  
set. The STKFUL bit can only be cleared in software or  
by a POR.  
The action that takes place when the stack becomes  
full depends on the state of the STVREN (Stack Over-  
flow Reset Enable) configuration bit. Refer to  
Section 20.0 for a description of the device configura-  
tion bits. If STVREN is set (default), the 31st push will  
push the (PC + 2) value onto the stack, set the STKFUL  
bit, and reset the device. The STKFUL bit will remain  
set and the stack pointer will be set to ‘0’.  
The stack space is not part of either program or data  
space. The stack pointer is readable and writable, and  
the address on the top of the stack is readable and writ-  
able through SFR registers. Data can also be pushed  
to, or popped from, the stack using the top-of-stack  
SFRs. Status bits indicate if the stack pointer is at, or  
beyond the 31 levels provided.  
If STVREN is cleared, the STKFUL bit will be set on the  
31st push and the stack pointer will increment to 31.  
Any additional pushes will not overwrite the 31st push,  
and STKPTR will remain at 31.  
When the stack has been popped enough times to  
unload the stack, the next pop will return a value of zero  
to the PC and sets the STKUNF bit, while the stack  
pointer remains at 0. The STKUNF bit will remain set  
until cleared in software or a POR occurs.  
4.2.1  
TOP-OF-STACK ACCESS  
The top of the stack is readable and writable. Three  
register locations, TOSU, TOSH and TOSL hold the  
contents of the stack location pointed to by the  
STKPTR register. This allows users to implement a  
software stack if necessary. After a CALL, RCALLor  
interrupt, the software can read the pushed value by  
reading the TOSU, TOSH and TOSL registers. These  
values can be placed on a user defined software stack.  
At return time, the software can replace the TOSU,  
TOSH and TOSL and do a return.  
Note: Returning a value of zero to the PC on an  
underflow has the effect of vectoring the  
program to the RESET vector, where the  
stack conditions can be verified and  
appropriate actions can be taken.  
The user must disable the global interrupt enable bits  
during this time to prevent inadvertent stack  
operations.

PUSH AND POP INSTRUCTIONS  
4.2.4  
STACK FULL/UNDERFLOW RESETS  
Since the Top-of-Stack (TOS) is readable and writable,  
the ability to push values onto the stack and pull values  
off the stack without disturbing normal program execu-  
tion is a desirable option. To push the current PC value  
onto the stack, a PUSH instruction can be executed.  
This will increment the stack pointer and load the cur-  
rent PC value onto the stack. TOSU, TOSH and TOSL  
can then be modified to place a return address on the  
stack.  
These resets are enabled by programming the  
STVREN configuration bit. When the STVREN bit is  
disabled, a full or underflow condition will set the appro-  
priate STKFUL or STKUNF bit, but not cause a device  
RESET. When the STVREN bit is enabled, a full or  
underflow will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF  
bit and then cause a device RESET. The STKFUL or  
STKUNF bits are only cleared by the user software or  
a POR Reset.  
The ability to pull the TOS value off of the stack and  
replace it with the value that was previously pushed  
onto the stack, without disturbing normal execution, is  
achieved by using the POPinstruction. The POPinstruc-  
tion discards the current TOS by decrementing the  
stack pointer. The previous value pushed onto the  
stack then becomes the TOS value.

4.3  
Fast Register Stack  
4.4  
PCL, PCLATH and PCLATU  
A “fast interrupt return” option is available for interrupts.  
A Fast Register Stack is provided for the STATUS,  
WREG and BSR registers and are only one in depth.  
The stack is not readable or writable and is loaded with  
the current value of the corresponding register when  
the processor vectors for an interrupt. The values in the  
registers are then loaded back into the working regis-  
ters, if the FAST RETURNinstruction is used to return  
from the interrupt.  
The program counter (PC) specifies the address of the  
instruction to fetch for execution. The PC is 21-bits  
wide. The low byte is called the PCL register. This reg-  
ister is readable and writable. The high byte is called  
the PCH register. This register contains the PC<15:8>  
bits and is not directly readable or writable. Updates to  
the PCH register may be performed through the  
PCLATH register. The upper byte is called PCU. This  
register contains the PC<20:16> bits and is not directly  
readable or writable. Updates to the PCU register may  
be performed through the PCLATU register.  
A low or high priority interrupt source will push values  
into the stack registers. If both low and high priority  
interrupts are enabled, the stack registers cannot be  
used reliably for low priority interrupts. If a high priority  
interrupt occurs while servicing a low priority interrupt,  
the stack register values stored by the low priority inter-  
rupt will be overwritten.  
The PC addresses bytes in the program memory. To  
prevent the PC from becoming misaligned with word  
instructions, the LSB of PCL is fixed to a value of ’0’.  
The PC increments by 2 to address sequential  
instructions in the program memory.  
If high priority interrupts are not disabled during low pri-  
ority interrupts, users must save the key registers in  
software during a low priority interrupt.  
The CALL, RCALL, GOTO and program branch  
instructions write to the program counter directly. For  
these instructions, the contents of PCLATH and  
PCLATU are not transferred to the program counter.  
If no interrupts are used, the fast register stack can be  
used to restore the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers  
at the end of a subroutine call. To use the fast register  
stack for a subroutine call, a FAST CALL instruction  
must be executed.  
The contents of PCLATH and PCLATU will be trans-  
ferred to the program counter by an operation that  
writes PCL. Similarly, the upper two bytes of the pro-  
gram counter will be transferred to PCLATH and  
PCLATU by an operation that reads PCL. This is useful  
for computed offsets to the PC (see Section 4.8.1).  
Example 4-1 shows a source code example that uses  
the fast register stack.

The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by  
four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature  
clocks, namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the pro-  
gram counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, the  
instruction is fetched from the program memory and  
latched into the instruction register in Q4. The instruc-  
tion is decoded and executed during the following Q1  
through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow  
are shown in Figure 4-4.

A fetch cycle begins with the program counter (PC)  
incrementing in Q1.  
4.6  
Instruction Flow/Pipelining  
An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1,  
Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instruction fetch and execute are  
pipelined such that fetch takes one instruction cycle,  
while decode and execute takes another instruction  
cycle. However, due to the pipelining, each instruction  
effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction  
causes the program counter to change (e.g., GOTO)  
then two cycles are required to complete the instruction  
(Example 4-2).  
In the execution cycle, the fetched instruction is latched  
into the “Instruction Register” (IR) in cycle Q1. This  
instruction is then decoded and executed during the  
Q2, Q3, and Q4 cycles. Data memory is read during Q2  
(operand read) and written during Q4 (destination  
write).

All instructions are single cycle, except for any program branches. These take two cycles since the fetch instruction  
is “flushed” from the pipeline while the new instruction is being fetched and then executed.  
The CALLand GOTOinstructions have an absolute pro-

Instructions in Program Memory  
gram memory address embedded into the instruction.  
Since instructions are always stored on word bound-  
aries, the data contained in the instruction is a word  
address. The word address is written to PC<20:1>,  
which accesses the desired byte address in program  
memory. Instruction #2 in Figure 4-5 shows how the  
instruction “GOTO 000006h’ is encoded in the program  
memory. Program branch instructions which encode a  
relative address offset operate in the same manner.  
The offset value stored in a branch instruction repre-  
sents the number of single word instructions that the  
PC will be offset by. Section 20.0 provides further  
details of the instruction set.  
The program memory is addressed in bytes. Instruc-  
tions are stored as two bytes or four bytes in program  
memory. The Least Significant Byte of an instruction  
word is always stored in a program memory location  
with an even address (LSB =’0’). Figure 4-5 shows an  
example of how instruction words are stored in the pro-  
gram memory. To maintain alignment with instruction  
boundaries, the PC increments in steps of 2 and the  
LSB will always read ’0’ (see Section 4.4).

second word of the instruction is executed by itself (first  
word was skipped), it will execute as a NOP. This action  
is necessary when the two-word instruction is preceded  
by a conditional instruction that changes the PC. A pro-  
gram example that demonstrates this concept is shown  
in Example 4-3. Refer to Section 20.0 for further details  
of the instruction set.

TWO-WORD INSTRUCTIONS  
The PIC18FXX2 devices have four two-word instruc-  
tions: MOVFF, CALL, GOTOand LFSR. The second  
word of these instructions has the 4 MSBs set to 1’s  
and is a special kind of NOPinstruction. The lower 12  
bits of the second word contain data to be used by the  
instruction. If the first word of the instruction is exe-  
cuted, the data in the second word is accessed. If the

TABLE READS/TABLE WRITES  
4.8  
Lookup Tables  
A better method of storing data in program memory  
allows 2 bytes of data to be stored in each instruction  
location.  
Lookup tables are implemented two ways. These are:  
• Computed GOTO  
Table Reads  
Lookup table data may be stored 2 bytes per program  
word by using table reads and writes. The table pointer  
(TBLPTR) specifies the byte address and the table  
latch (TABLAT) contains the data that is read from, or  
written to program memory. Data is transferred to/from  
program memory, one byte at a time.  
4.8.1  
COMPUTED GOTO  
A computed GOTOis accomplished by adding an offset  
to the program counter (ADDWF PCL).  
A lookup table can be formed with an ADDWF PCL  
instruction and a group of RETLW 0xnn instructions.  
WREG is loaded with an offset into the table before  
executing a call to that table. The first instruction of the  
called routine is the ADDWF PCLinstruction. The next  
instruction executed will be one of the RETLW 0xnn  
instructions, that returns the value 0xnnto the calling  
function.  
A description of the Table Read/Table Write operation  
is shown in Section 3.0.  
The offset value (value in WREG) specifies the number  
of bytes that the program counter should advance.  
In this method, only one data byte may be stored in  
each instruction location and room on the return  
address stack is required.  
Note: The ADDWF PCL instruction does not  
update PCLATH and PCLATU. A read  
operation on PCL must be performed to  
update PCLATH and PCLATU.

4.9.1  
GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER

4.9  
Data Memory Organization  
The data memory is implemented as static RAM. Each  
register in the data memory has a 12-bit address,  
allowing up to 4096 bytes of data memory. Figure 4-6  
and Figure 4-7 show the data memory organization for  
the PIC18FXX2 devices.  
The register file can be accessed either directly or indi-  
rectly. Indirect addressing operates using a File Select  
Register and corresponding Indirect File Operand. The  
operation of indirect addressing is shown in  
Section 4.12.  
The data memory map is divided into as many as 16  
banks that contain 256 bytes each. The lower 4 bits of  
the Bank Select Register (BSR<3:0>) select which  
bank will be accessed. The upper 4 bits for the BSR are  
not implemented.  
Enhanced MCU devices may have banked memory in  
the GPR area. GPRs are not initialized by a Power-on  
Reset and are unchanged on all other RESETS.  
Data RAM is available for use as GPR registers by all  
instructions. The top half of Bank 15 (0xF80 to 0xFFF)  
contains SFRs. All other banks of data memory contain  
GPR registers, starting with Bank 0.  
The data memory contains Special Function Registers  
(SFR) and General Purpose Registers (GPR). The  
SFRs are used for control and status of the controller  
and peripheral functions, while GPRs are used for data  
storage and scratch pad operations in the user’s appli-  
cation. The SFRs start at the last location of Bank 15  
(0xFFF) and extend downwards. Any remaining space  
beyond the SFRs in the Bank may be implemented as  
GPRs. GPRs start at the first location of Bank 0 and  
grow upwards. Any read of an unimplemented location  
will read as ’0’s.  
4.9.2  
SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS  
The Special Function Registers (SFRs) are registers  
used by the CPU and Peripheral Modules for control-  
ling the desired operation of the device. These regis-  
ters are implemented as static RAM. A list of these  
registers is given in Table 4-1 and Table 4-2.  
The SFRs can be classified into two sets; those asso-  
ciated with the “core” function and those related to the  
peripheral functions. Those registers related to the  
“core” are described in this section, while those related  
to the operation of the peripheral features are  
described in the section of that peripheral feature.  
The entire data memory may be accessed directly or  
indirectly. Direct addressing may require the use of the  
BSR register. Indirect addressing requires the use of a  
File Select Register (FSRn) and a corresponding Indi-  
rect File Operand (INDFn). Each FSR holds a 12-bit  
address value that can be used to access any location  
in the Data Memory map without banking.  
The SFRs are typically distributed among the  
peripherals whose functions they control.  
The instruction set and architecture allow operations  
across all banks. This may be accomplished by indirect  
addressing or by the use of the MOVFFinstruction. The  
MOVFF instruction is a two-word/two-cycle instruction  
that moves a value from one register to another.  
The unused SFR locations will be unimplemented and  
read as '0's. See Table 4-1 for addresses for the SFRs.  
To ensure that commonly used registers (SFRs and  
select GPRs) can be accessed in a single cycle,  
regardless of the current BSR values, an Access Bank  
is implemented. A segment of Bank 0 and a segment of  
Bank 15 comprise the Access RAM. Section 4.10  
provides a detailed description of the Access RAM.

Access Bank  
4.11 Bank Select Register (BSR)  
The Access Bank is an architectural enhancement  
which is very useful for C compiler code optimization.  
The techniques used by the C compiler may also be  
useful for programs written in assembly.  
The need for a large general purpose memory space  
dictates a RAM banking scheme. The data memory is  
partitioned into sixteen banks. When using direct  
addressing, the BSR should be configured for the  
desired bank.  
This data memory region can be used for:  
BSR<3:0> holds the upper 4 bits of the 12-bit RAM  
address. The BSR<7:4> bits will always read ’0’s, and  
writes will have no effect.  
• Intermediate computational values  
• Local variables of subroutines  
• Faster context saving/switching of variables  
• Common variables  
A
MOVLB instruction has been provided in the  
instruction set to assist in selecting banks.  
• Faster evaluation/control of SFRs (no banking)  
If the currently selected bank is not implemented, any  
read will return all '0's and all writes are ignored. The  
STATUS register bits will be set/cleared as appropriate  
for the instruction performed.  
The Access Bank is comprised of the upper 128 bytes  
in Bank 15 (SFRs) and the lower 128 bytes in Bank 0.  
These two sections will be referred to as Access RAM  
High and Access RAM Low, respectively. Figure 4-6  
and Figure 4-7 indicate the Access RAM areas.  
Each Bank extends up to FFh (256 bytes). All data  
memory is implemented as static RAM.  
A bit in the instruction word specifies if the operation is  
to occur in the bank specified by the BSR register or in  
the Access Bank. This bit is denoted by the ’a’ bit (for  
access bit).  
A MOVFFinstruction ignores the BSR, since the 12-bit  
addresses are embedded into the instruction word.  
Section 4.12 provides a description of indirect address-  
ing, which allows linear addressing of the entire RAM  
space.  
When forced in the Access Bank (a = 0), the last  
address in Access RAM Low is followed by the first  
address in Access RAM High. Access RAM High maps  
the Special Function registers, so that these registers  
can be accessed without any software overhead. This is  
useful for testing status flags and modifying control bits.

the data from the address pointed to by  
FSR1H:FSR1L. INDFn can be used in code anywhere  
an operand can be used.  
4.12 Indirect Addressing, INDF and  
FSR Registers  
Indirect addressing is a mode of addressing data mem-  
ory, where the data memory address in the instruction  
is not fixed. An FSR register is used as a pointer to the  
data memory location that is to be read or written. Since  
this pointer is in RAM, the contents can be modified by  
the program. This can be useful for data tables in the  
data memory and for software stacks. Figure 4-9  
shows the operation of indirect addressing. This shows  
the moving of the value to the data memory address  
specified by the value of the FSR register.  
If INDF0, INDF1 or INDF2 are read indirectly via an  
FSR, all '0's are read (zero bit is set). Similarly, if  
INDF0, INDF1 or INDF2 are written to indirectly, the  
operation will be equivalent to a NOPinstruction and the  
STATUS bits are not affected.  
4.12.1  
INDIRECT ADDRESSING  
OPERATION  
Each FSR register has an INDF register associated  
with it, plus four additional register addresses. Perform-  
ing an operation on one of these five registers deter-  
mines how the FSR will be modified during indirect  
addressing.  
Indirect addressing is possible by using one of the  
INDF registers. Any instruction using the INDF register  
actually accesses the register pointed to by the File  
Select Register, FSR. Reading the INDF register itself,  
indirectly (FSR = 0), will read 00h. Writing to the INDF  
register indirectly, results in a no operation. The FSR  
register contains a 12-bit address, which is shown in  
Figure 4-10.  
When data access is done to one of the five INDFn  
locations, the address selected will configure the FSRn  
register to:  
• Do nothing to FSRn after an indirect access (no  
change) - INDFn  
The INDFn register is not a physical register. Address-  
ing INDFn actually addresses the register whose  
address is contained in the FSRn register (FSRn is a  
pointer). This is indirect addressing.  
• Auto-decrement FSRn after an indirect access  
(post-decrement) - POSTDECn  
• Auto-increment FSRn after an indirect access  
(post-increment) - POSTINCn  
Example 4-4 shows a simple use of indirect addressing  
to clear the RAM in Bank1 (locations 100h-1FFh) in a  
minimum number of instructions.  
• Auto-increment FSRn before an indirect access  
(pre-increment) - PREINCn  
• Use the value in the WREG register as an offset  
to FSRn. Do not modify the value of the WREG or  
the FSRn register after an indirect access (no  
change) - PLUSWn  
EXAMPLE 4-4:

;
When using the auto-increment or auto-decrement fea-  
tures, the effect on the FSR is not reflected in the  
STATUS register. For example, if the indirect address  
causes the FSR to equal '0', the Z bit will not be set.  
NEXT

; register and  
; inc pointer  
; All done with  
; Bank1?  
BTFSS FSR0H, 1  
GOTO NEXT  
Incrementing or decrementing an FSR affects all 12  
bits. That is, when FSRnL overflows from an increment,  
FSRnH will be incremented automatically.  
; NO, clear next  
; YES, continue  
CONTINUE  
Adding these features allows the FSRn to be used as a  
stack pointer, in addition to its uses for table operations  
in data memory.  
There are three indirect addressing registers. To  
address the entire data memory space (4096 bytes),  
these registers are 12-bit wide. To store the 12-bits of  
addressing information, two 8-bit registers are  
required. These indirect addressing registers are:  
Each FSR has an address associated with it that per-  
forms an indexed indirect access. When a data access  
to this INDFn location (PLUSWn) occurs, the FSRn is  
configured to add the signed value in the WREG regis-  
ter and the value in FSR to form the address before an  
indirect access. The FSR value is not changed.  
1. FSR0: composed of FSR0H:FSR0L  
2. FSR1: composed of FSR1H:FSR1L  
3. FSR2: composed of FSR2H:FSR2L  
If an FSR register contains a value that points to one of  
the INDFn, an indirect read will read 00h (zero bit is  
set), while an indirect write will be equivalent to a NOP  
(STATUS bits are not affected).  
In addition, there are registers INDF0, INDF1 and  
INDF2, which are not physically implemented. Reading  
or writing to these registers activates indirect address-  
ing, with the value in the corresponding FSR register  
being the address of the data. If an instruction writes a  
value to INDF0, the value will be written to the address  
pointed to by FSR0H:FSR0L. A read from INDF1 reads  
If an indirect addressing operation is done where the  
target address is an FSRnH or FSRnL register, the  
write operation will dominate over the pre- or  
post-increment/decrement functions.

For example, CLRF STATUSwill clear the upper three  
bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the STATUS register  
as 000u u1uu(where u= unchanged).  
4.13 STATUS Register  
The STATUS register, shown in Register 4-2, contains  
the arithmetic status of the ALU. The STATUS register  
can be the destination for any instruction, as with any  
other register. If the STATUS register is the destination  
for an instruction that affects the Z, DC, C, OV, or N bits,  
then the write to these five bits is disabled. These bits  
are set or cleared according to the device logic. There-  
fore, the result of an instruction with the STATUS  
register as destination may be different than intended.  
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,  
SWAPF, MOVFF and MOVWF instructions are used to  
alter the STATUS register, because these instructions  
do not affect the Z, C, DC, OV, or Nbits from the  
STATUS register. For other instructions not affecting  
any status bits, see Table 20-2.  
Note: The C and DC bits operate as a borrow and  
digit borrow bit respectively, in subtraction.

Table Reads and Table Writes  
5.0  
FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY  
In order to read and write program memory, there are  
two operations that allow the processor to move bytes  
between the program memory space and the data  
RAM:  
The FLASH Program Memory is readable, writable,  
and erasable during normal operation over the entire  
VDD range.  
A read from program memory is executed on one byte  
at a time. A write to program memory is executed on  
blocks of 8 bytes at a time. Program memory is erased  
in blocks of 64 bytes at a time. A bulk erase operation  
may not be issued from user code.  
Table Read (TBLRD)  
Table Write (TBLWT)  
The program memory space is 16-bits wide, while the  
data RAM space is 8-bits wide. Table Reads and Table  
Writes move data between these two memory spaces  
through an 8-bit register (TABLAT).  
Writing or erasing program memory will cease instruc-  
tion fetches until the operation is complete. The pro-  
gram memory cannot be accessed during the write or  
erase, therefore, code cannot execute. An internal pro-  
gramming timer terminates program memory writes  
and erases.  
Table Read operations retrieve data from program  
memory and places it into the data RAM space.  
Figure 5-1 shows the operation of a Table Read with  
program memory and data RAM.  
A value written to program memory does not need to be  
a valid instruction. Executing a program memory  
location that forms an invalid instruction results in a  
NOP.  
Table Write operations store data from the data mem-  
ory space into holding registers in program memory.  
The procedure to write the contents of the holding reg-  
isters into program memory is detailed in Section 5.5,  
'”Writing to FLASH Program Memory”. Figure 5-2  
shows the operation of a Table Write with program  
memory and data RAM.  
Table operations work with byte entities. A table block  
containing data, rather than program instructions, is not  
required to be word aligned. Therefore, a table block  
can start and end at any byte address. If a Table Write  
is being used to write executable code into program  
memory, program instructions will need to be word  
aligned.

Section 5.5.  
The FREE bit, when set, will allow a program memory  
erase operation. When the FREE bit is set, the erase  
operation is initiated on the next WR command. When  
FREE is clear, only writes are enabled.  
5.2  
Control Registers  
Several control registers are used in conjunction with  
the TBLRDand TBLWTinstructions. These include the:  
• EECON1 register  
• EECON2 register  
• TABLAT register  
• TBLPTR registers  
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 opera-  
tion. In these situations, the user can check the  
WRERR bit and rewrite the location. It is necessary to  
reload the data and address registers (EEDATA and  
EEADR), due to RESETvalues of zero.  
5.2.1  
EECON1 AND EECON2 REGISTERS  
EECON1 is the control register for memory accesses.  
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2  
will read all '0's. The EECON2 register is used  
exclusively in the memory write and erase sequences.  
Control bit WR initiates write operations. This bit cannot  
be cleared, only set, in software. It is cleared in hard-  
ware at the completion of the write operation. The  
inability to clear the WR bit in software prevents the  
Control bit EEPGD determines if the access will be a  
program or data EEPROM memory access. When  
clear, any subsequent operations will operate on the  
data EEPROM memory. When set, any subsequent  
operations will operate on the program memory.  
accidental or premature termination of  
operation.  
a write  
Note: Interrupt flag bit EEIF, in the PIR2 register,  
is set when the write is complete. It must  
be cleared in software.  
Control bit CFGS determines if the access will be to the  
configuration registers or to program memory/data  
EEPROM memory. When set, subsequent operations  
will operate on configuration registers, regardless of  
EEPGD (see “Special Features of the CPU”,  
Section 19.0). When clear, memory selection access is  
determined by EEPGD.

TABLAT - TABLE LATCH REGISTER  
5.2.4  
TABLE POINTER BOUNDARIES  
The Table Latch (TABLAT) is an 8-bit register mapped  
into the SFR space. The Table Latch is used to hold  
8-bit data during data transfers between program  
memory and data RAM.  
TBLPTR is used in reads, writes, and erases of the  
FLASH program memory.  
When a TBLRD is executed, all 22 bits of the Table  
Pointer determine which byte is read from program  
memory into TABLAT.  
5.2.3  
TBLPTR - TABLE POINTER  
REGISTER  
When a TBLWTis executed, the three LSbs of the Table  
Pointer (TBLPTR<2:0>) determine which of the eight  
program memory holding registers is written to. When  
the timed write to program memory (long write) begins,  
the 19 MSbs of the Table Pointer, TBLPTR  
(TBLPTR<21:3>), will determine which program mem-  
ory block of 8 bytes is written to. For more detail, see  
Section 5.5 (“Writing to FLASH Program Memory”).  
The Table Pointer (TBLPTR) addresses a byte within  
the program memory. The TBLPTR is comprised of  
three SFR registers: Table Pointer Upper Byte, Table  
Pointer High Byte and Table Pointer Low Byte  
(TBLPTRU:TBLPTRH:TBLPTRL). These three regis-  
ters join to form a 22-bit wide pointer. The low order 21  
bits allow the device to address up to 2 Mbytes of pro-  
gram memory space. The 22nd bit allows access to the  
Device ID, the User ID and the Configuration bits.  
When an erase of program memory is executed, the 16  
MSbs of the Table Pointer (TBLPTR<21:6>) point to the  
64-byte block that will be erased. The Least Significant  
bits (TBLPTR<5:0>) are ignored.  
The table pointer, TBLPTR, is used by the TBLRDand  
TBLWTinstructions. These instructions can update the  
TBLPTR in one of four ways based on the table opera-  
tion. These operations are shown in Table 5-1. These  
operations on the TBLPTR only affect the low order  
21 bits.  
Figure 5-3 describes the relevant boundaries of  
TBLPTR based on FLASH program memory  
operations.

TBLPTR points to a byte address in program space.  
Executing TBLRD places the byte pointed to into  
TABLAT. In addition, TBLPTR can be modified  
automatically for the next Table Read operation.  
5.3  
Reading the FLASH Program  
Memory  
The TBLRDinstruction is used to retrieve data from pro-  
gram memory and place into data RAM. Table Reads  
from program memory are performed one byte at a  
time.  
The internal program memory is typically organized by  
words. The Least Significant bit of the address selects  
between the high and low bytes of the word. Figure 5-4  
shows the interface between the internal program  
memory and the TABLAT.

FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY  
ERASE SEQUENCE  
5.4  
Erasing FLASH Program memory  
The minimum erase block is 32 words or 64 bytes. Only  
through the use of an external programmer, or through  
ICSP control can larger blocks of program memory be  
bulk erased. Word erase in the FLASH array is not  
supported.  
The sequence of events for erasing a block of internal  
program memory location is:  
1. Load table pointer with address of row being  
erased.  
When initiating an erase sequence from the micro-  
controller itself, a block of 64 bytes of program memory  
is erased. The Most Significant 16 bits of the  
TBLPTR<21:6> point to the block being erased.  
TBLPTR<5:0> are ignored.  
2. Set EEPGD bit to point to program memory,  
clear CFGS bit to access program memory, set  
WREN bit to enable writes, and set FREE bit to  
enable the erase.  
3. Disable interrupts.  
The EECON1 register commands the erase operation.  
The EEPGD bit must be set to point to the FLASH pro-  
gram memory. The WREN bit must be set to enable  
write operations. The FREE bit is set to select an erase  
operation.  
4. Write 55h to EECON2.  
5. Write AAh to EECON2.  
6. Set the WR bit. This will begin the row erase  
cycle.  
7. The CPU will stall for duration of the erase  
(about 2 ms using internal timer).  
For protection, the write initiate sequence for EECON2  
must be used.  
8. Re-enable interrupts.  
A long write is necessary for erasing the internal  
FLASH. Instruction execution is halted while in a long  
write cycle. The long write will be terminated by the  
internal programming timer.

operations will essentially be short writes, because only  
the holding registers are written. At the end of updating  
8 registers, the EECON1 register must be written to, to  
start the programming operation with a long write.  
5.5  
Writing to FLASH Program  
Memory  
The minimum programming block is 4 words or 8 bytes.  
Word or byte programming is not supported.  
The long write is necessary for programming the inter-  
nal FLASH. Instruction execution is halted while in a  
long write cycle. The long write will be terminated by  
the internal programming timer.  
Table Writes are used internally to load the holding reg-  
isters needed to program the FLASH memory. There  
are 8 holding registers used by the Table Writes for  
programming.  
The EEPROM on-chip timer controls the write time.  
The write/erase voltages are generated by an on-chip  
charge pump rated to operate over the voltage range of  
the device for byte or word operations.  
Since the Table Latch (TABLAT) is only a single byte,  
the TBLWT instruction has to be executed 8 times for  
each programming operation. All of the Table Write

PROTECTION AGAINST SPURIOUS  
WRITES  
Depending on the application, good programming  
practice may dictate that the value written to the mem-  
ory should be verified against the original value. This  
should be used in applications where excessive writes  
can stress bits near the specification limit.  
To protect against spurious writes to FLASH program  
memory, the write initiate sequence must also be fol-  
lowed. See “Special Features of the CPU”  
(Section 19.0) for more detail.

UNEXPECTED TERMINATION OF  
WRITE OPERATION  
5.6  
FLASH Program Operation During  
Code Protection  
If a write is terminated by an unplanned event, such as  
loss of power or an unexpected RESET, the memory  
location just programmed should be verified and repro-  
grammed if needed.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 situ-  
ations, users can check the WRERR bit and rewrite the  
location.  
See “Special Features of the CPU” (Section 19.0) for  
details on code protection of FLASH program memory.

6.0  
DATA EEPROM MEMORY  
The address register can address up to a maximum of  
256 bytes of data EEPROM.  
The Data EEPROM is readable and writable during  
normal operation over the entire VDD range. The data  
memory is not directly mapped in the register file  
space. Instead, it is indirectly addressed through the  
Special Function Registers (SFR).  
6.2  
EECON1 and EECON2 Registers  
EECON1 is the control register for EEPROM memory  
accesses.  
There are four SFRs used to read and write the  
program and data EEPROM memory. These registers  
are:  
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2  
will read all '0's. The EECON2 register is used  
exclusively in the EEPROM write sequence.  
• EECON1  
• EECON2  
• EEDATA  
• EEADR  
Control bits RD and WR initiate read and write opera-  
tions, respectively. These bits cannot be cleared, only  
set, in software. They are cleared in hardware at the  
completion of the read or write operation. The inability  
to clear the WR bit in software prevents the accidental  
or premature termination of a write operation.  
The EEPROM data memory allows byte read and write.  
When interfacing to the data memory block, EEDATA  
holds the 8-bit data for read/write and EEADR holds the  
address of the EEPROM location being accessed.  
These devices have 256 bytes of data EEPROM with  
an address range from 0h to FFh.  
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 opera-  
tion. In these situations, the user can check the  
WRERR bit and rewrite the location. It is necessary to  
reload the data and address registers (EEDATA and  
EEADR), due to the RESET condition forcing the  
contents of the registers to zero.  
The EEPROM data memory is rated for high erase/  
write cycles. A byte write automatically erases the loca-  
tion and writes the new data (erase-before-write). 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 parameter D122  
(Electrical Characteristics, Section 22.0) for exact  
limits.  
Note: Interrupt flag bit, EEIF in the PIR2 register,  
is set when write is complete. It must be  
cleared in software.

(EECON1<6>), and then set control bit RD  
(EECON1<0>). The data is available for the very next  
instruction cycle; therefore, the EEDATA register can  
be read by the next instruction. EEDATA will hold this  
value until another read operation, or until it is written to  
by the user (during a write operation).  
6.3  
Reading the Data EEPROM  
Memory  
To read a data memory location, the user must write the  
address to the EEADR register, clear the EEPGD con-  
trol bit (EECON1<7>), clear the CFGS control bit

cution (i.e., runaway programs). The WREN bit should  
be kept clear at all times, except when updating the  
EEPROM. The WREN bit is not cleared by hardware.  
6.4  
Writing to the Data EEPROM  
Memory  
To write an EEPROM data location, the address must  
first be written to the EEADR register and the data writ-  
ten to the EEDATA register. Then the sequence in  
Example 6-2 must be followed to initiate the write cycle.  
After a write sequence has been initiated, EECON1,  
EEADR and EDATA cannot be modified. The WR bit  
will be inhibited from being set unless the WREN bit is  
set. The WREN bit must be set on a previous instruc-  
tion. Both WR and WREN cannot be set with the same  
instruction.  
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. It is strongly  
recommended that interrupts be disabled during this  
code segment.  
At the completion of the write cycle, the WR bit is  
cleared in hardware and the EEPROM Write Complete  
Interrupt Flag bit (EEIF) is set. The user may either  
enable this interrupt, or poll this bit. EEIF must be  
cleared by software.  
Additionally, the WREN bit in EECON1 must be set to  
enable writes. This mechanism prevents accidental  
writes to data EEPROM due to unexpected code exe-

6.7  
Operation During Code Protect  
Depending on the application, good programming  
practice may dictate that the value written to the mem-  
ory should be verified against the original value. This  
should be used in applications where excessive writes  
can stress bits near the specification limit.  
Data EEPROM memory has its own code protect  
mechanism. External Read and Write operations are  
disabled if either of these mechanisms are enabled.  
The microcontroller itself can both read and write to the  
internal Data EEPROM, regardless of the state of the  
code protect configuration bit. Refer to “Special Features  
of the CPU” (Section 19.0) for additional information.  
6.6  
Protection Against Spurious Write  
There are conditions when the device 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, the WREN bit is cleared.  
Also, the Power-up Timer (72 ms duration) prevents  
EEPROM write.  
6.8  
Using the Data EEPROM  
The data EEPROM is a high endurance, byte address-  
able array that has been optimized for the storage of  
frequently changing information (e.g., program vari-  
ables or other data that are updated often). Frequently  
changing values will typically be updated more often  
than specification D124. If this is not the case, an array  
refresh must be performed. For this reason, variables  
that change infrequently (such as constants, IDs, cali-  
bration, etc.) should be stored in FLASH program  
memory.  
The write initiate sequence and the WREN bit together  
help prevent an accidental write during brown-out,  
power glitch, or software malfunction.  
A simple data EEPROM refresh routine is shown in  
Example 6-3.  
Note: If data EEPROM is only used to store con-  
stants and/or data that changes rarely, an  
array refresh is likely not required. See  
specification D124.

8 X 8 HARDWARE MULTIPLIER  
Introduction  
• Higher computational throughput  
• Reduces code size requirements for multiply  
algorithms  
An 8 x 8 hardware multiplier is included in the ALU of  
the PIC18FXX2 devices. By making the multiply a  
hardware operation, it completes in a single instruction  
cycle. This is an unsigned multiply that gives a 16-bit  
result. The result is stored into the 16-bit product regis-  
ter pair (PRODH:PRODL). The multiplier does not  
affect any flags in the ALUSTA register.  
The performance increase allows the device to be used  
in applications previously reserved for Digital Signal  
Processors.  
Table 7-1 shows a performance comparison between  
enhanced devices using the single cycle hardware mul-  
tiply, and performing the same function without the  
hardware multiply.

PIC18FXX2  
When the IPEN bit is cleared (default state), the inter-  
rupt priority feature is disabled and interrupts are com-  
patible with PICmicro® mid-range devices. In  
Compatibility mode, the interrupt priority bits for each  
source have no effect. INTCON<6> is the PEIE bit,  
which enables/disables all peripheral interrupt sources.  
INTCON<7> is the GIE bit, which enables/disables all  
interrupt sources. All interrupts branch to address  
000008h in Compatibility mode.  
8.0  
INTERRUPTS  
The PIC18FXX2 devices have multiple interrupt  
sources and an interrupt priority feature that allows  
each interrupt source to be assigned a high priority  
level or a low priority level. The high priority interrupt  
vector is at 000008h and the low priority interrupt vector  
is at 000018h. High priority interrupt events will over-  
ride any low priority interrupts that may be in progress.  
There are ten registers which are used to control  
interrupt operation. These registers are:  
When an interrupt is responded to, the Global Interrupt  
Enable bit is cleared to disable further interrupts. If the  
IPEN bit is cleared, this is the GIE bit. If interrupt priority  
levels are used, this will be either the GIEH or GIEL bit.  
High priority interrupt sources can interrupt a low  
priority interrupt.  
• RCON  
• INTCON  
• INTCON2  
• INTCON3  
• PIR1, PIR2  
• PIE1, PIE2  
• IPR1, IPR2  
The return address is pushed onto the stack and the  
PC is loaded with the interrupt vector address  
(000008h or 000018h). Once in the Interrupt Service  
Routine, the source(s) of the interrupt can be deter-  
mined by polling the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt  
flag bits must be cleared in software before re-enabling  
interrupts to avoid recursive interrupts.  
It is recommended that the Microchip header files sup-  
plied with MPLAB® IDE be used for the symbolic bit  
names in these registers. This allows the assembler/  
compiler to automatically take care of the placement of  
these bits within the specified register.  
The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits  
the interrupt routine and sets the GIE bit (GIEH or GIEL  
if priority levels are used), which re-enables interrupts.  
Each interrupt source, except INT0, has three bits to  
control its operation. The functions of these bits are:  
For external interrupt events, such as the INT pins or  
the PORTB input change interrupt, the interrupt latency  
will be three to four instruction cycles. The exact  
latency is the same for one or two-cycle instructions.  
Individual interrupt flag bits are set, regardless of the  
status of their corresponding enable bit or the GIE bit.  
• Flag bit to indicate that an interrupt event  
occurred  
• Enable bit that allows program execution to  
branch to the interrupt vector address when the  
flag bit is set  
Note: Do not use the MOVFFinstruction to modify  
any of the Interrupt control registers while  
any interrupt is enabled. Doing so may  
cause erratic microcontroller behavior.  
• Priority bit to select high priority or low priority  
The interrupt priority feature is enabled by setting the  
IPEN bit (RCON<7>). When interrupt priority is  
enabled, there are two bits which enable interrupts glo-  
bally. Setting the GIEH bit (INTCON<7>) enables all  
interrupts that have the priority bit set. Setting the GIEL  
bit (INTCON<6>) enables all interrupts that have the  
priority bit cleared. When the interrupt flag, enable bit  
and appropriate global interrupt enable bit are set, the  
interrupt will vector immediately to address 000008h or  
000018h, depending on the priority level. Individual  
interrupts can be disabled through their corresponding  
enable bits.

INTCON Registers  
Note: Interrupt flag bits are set when an interrupt  
condition occurs, regardless of the state of  
its corresponding enable bit or the global  
enable bit. User software should ensure  
the appropriate interrupt flag bits are clear  
prior to enabling an interrupt. This feature  
allows for software polling.  
The INTCON Registers are readable and writable reg-  
isters, which contain various enable, priority and flag  
bits.

INT0 Interrupt  
8.7  
TMR0 Interrupt  
External interrupts on the RB0/INT0, RB1/INT1 and  
RB2/INT2 pins are edge triggered: either rising, if the  
corresponding INTEDGx bit is set in the INTCON2 reg-  
ister, or falling, if the INTEDGx bit is clear. When a valid  
edge appears on the RBx/INTx pin, the corresponding  
flag bit INTxF is set. This interrupt can be disabled by  
clearing the corresponding enable bit INTxE. Flag bit  
INTxF must be cleared in software in the Interrupt Ser-  
vice Routine before re-enabling the interrupt. All exter-  
nal interrupts (INT0, INT1 and INT2) can wake-up the  
processor from SLEEP, if bit INTxE was set prior to  
going into SLEEP. If the global interrupt enable bit GIE  
is set, the processor will branch to the interrupt vector  
following wake-up.  
In 8-bit mode (which is the default), an overflow  
(FFh 00h) in the TMR0 register will set flag bit  
TMR0IF. In 16-bit mode, an overflow (FFFFh 0000h)  
in the TMR0H:TMR0L registers will set flag bit TMR0IF.  
The interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/  
clearing enable bit T0IE (INTCON<5>). Interrupt prior-  
ity for Timer0 is determined by the value contained in  
the interrupt priority bit TMR0IP (INTCON2<2>). See  
Section 10.0 for further details on the Timer0 module.  
8.8  
PORTB Interrupt-on-Change  
An input change on PORTB<7:4> sets flag bit RBIF  
(INTCON<0>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled  
by setting/clearing enable bit, RBIE (INTCON<3>).  
Interrupt priority for PORTB interrupt-on-change is  
determined by the value contained in the interrupt  
priority bit, RBIP (INTCON2<0>).  
Interrupt priority for INT1 and INT2 is determined by the  
value contained in the interrupt priority bits, INT1IP  
(INTCON3<6>) and INT2IP (INTCON3<7>). There is  
no priority bit associated with INT0. It is always a high  
priority interrupt source.  
8.9  
Context Saving During Interrupts  
During an interrupt, the return PC value is saved on the  
stack. Additionally, the WREG, STATUS and BSR regis-  
ters are saved on the fast return stack. If a fast return  
from interrupt is not used (See Section 4.3), the user  
may need to save the WREG, STATUS and BSR regis-  
ters in software. Depending on the user’s application,  
other registers may also need to be saved. Equation 8-1  
saves and restores the WREG, STATUS and BSR  
registers during an Interrupt Service Routine.

I/O PORTS  
Depending on the device selected, there are either five  
ports or three ports available. Some pins of the I/O  
ports are multiplexed with an alternate function from  
the peripheral features on the device. In general, when  
a peripheral is enabled, that pin may not be used as a  
general purpose I/O pin.  
CLRF LATA  
MOVLW 0x07  
MOVWF ADCON1  
MOVLW 0xCF  
Each port has three registers for its operation. These  
registers are:  
• TRIS register (data direction register)  
MOVWF TRISA  
• PORT register (reads the levels on the pins of the  
device)  
• LAT register (output latch)  
The data latch (LAT register) is useful for read-modify-  
write operations on the value that the I/O pins are  
driving.

PORTA is a 7-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-  
sponding Data Direction register is TRISA. Setting a  
TRISA bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTA pin  
an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a  
Hi-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).

full CMOS output drivers.

The other PORTA pins are multiplexed with analog

control bits in the ADCON1 register (A/D Control  
Register1).

Note 1: I/O pins have protection diodes to VDD and VSS.  
The TRISA register controls the direction of the RA  
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.

The interrupt-on-change feature is recommended for  
wake-up on key depression operation and operations  
where PORTB is only used for the interrupt-on-change  
feature. Polling of PORTB is not recommended while  
using the interrupt-on-change feature.

PORTB, TRISB and LATB  
Registers  
PORTB is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-  
sponding Data Direction register is TRISB. Setting a  
TRISB bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTB pin  
an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a  
Hi-Impedance mode). Clearing a TRISB bit (= 0) will  
make the corresponding PORTB pin an output (i.e., put  
the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).  
RB3 can be configured by the configuration bit  
CCP2MX as the alternate peripheral pin for the CCP2  
module (CCP2MX=’0’).

Each of the PORTB pins has a weak internal pull-up. A  
single control bit can turn on all the pull-ups. This is per-  
formed by clearing bit RBPU (INTCON2<7>). The  
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.

RB7:RB4 pins  
Note: On a Power-on Reset, these pins are  
RB7:RB5 in Serial Programming mode  
configured as digital inputs.  
Note 1: I/O pins have diode protection to VDD and VSS.  
Four of the PORTB pins, RB7:RB4, have an interrupt-  
on-change feature. Only pins configured as inputs can  
cause this interrupt to occur (i.e., any RB7:RB4 pin  
configured as an output is excluded from the interrupt-  
on-change comparison). The input pins (of RB7:RB4)  
are compared with the old value latched on the last  
read of PORTB. The “mismatch” outputs of RB7:RB4  
are OR’ed together to generate the RB Port Change  
Interrupt with flag bit, RBIF (INTCON<0>).  
2: To enable weak pull-ups, set the appropriate TRIS bit(s)  
and clear the RBPU bit (INTCON2<7>).  
Note 1: While in Low Voltage ICSP mode, the  
RB5 pin can no longer be used as a gen-  
eral purpose I/O pin, and should be held  
low during normal operation to protect  
against inadvertent ICSP mode entry.  
This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The  
user, in the Interrupt Service Routine, can clear the  
interrupt in the following manner:  
2: When using Low Voltage ICSP program-  
ming (LVP), the pull-up on RB5 becomes  
disabled. If TRISB bit 5 is cleared,  
thereby setting RB5 as an output, LATB  
bit 5 must also be cleared for proper  
operation.  
a) Any read or write of PORTB (except with the  
MOVFF instruction). This will end the mismatch  
condition.  
b) Clear flag bit RBIF.  
A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit RBIF.  
Reading PORTB will end the mismatch condition and  
allow flag bit RBIF to be cleared.

PORTC, TRISC and LATC  
Registers  
PORTC is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-  
sponding Data Direction register is TRISC. Setting a  
TRISC bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTC  
pin an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in  
a Hi-Impedance mode). Clearing a TRISC bit (= 0) will  
make the corresponding PORTC pin an output (i.e., put  
the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).  
RC1 is normally configured by configuration bit,  
CCP2MX, as the default peripheral pin of the CCP2  
module (default/erased state, CCP2MX = ’1’).

When enabling peripheral functions, care should be  
taken in defining TRIS bits for each PORTC pin. Some  
peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an out-  
put, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to  
make a pin an input. The user should refer to the corre-  
sponding peripheral section for the correct TRIS bit  
settings.  
Note: On a Power-on Reset, these pins are  
configured as digital inputs.

PORTD is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-  
sponding Data Direction register is TRISD. Setting a  
TRISD bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTD  
pin an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in  
a Hi-Impedance mode). Clearing a TRISD bit (= 0) will  
make the corresponding PORTD pin an output (i.e., put  
the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).

Parallel Slave Port  
The Parallel Slave Port is implemented on the 40-pin  
devices only (PIC18F4X2).  
PORTD operates as an 8-bit wide Parallel Slave Port,  
or microprocessor port when control bit, PSPMODE  
(TRISE<4>) is set. It is asynchronously readable and  
writable by the external world through RD control input  
pin, RE0/RD and WR control input pin, RE1/WR.

It can directly interface to an 8-bit microprocessor data  
bus. The external microprocessor can read or write the  
PORTD latch as an 8-bit latch. Setting bit PSPMODE  
enables port pin RE0/RD to be the RD input, RE1/WR  
to be the WR input and RE2/CS to be the CS (chip  
select) input. For this functionality, the corresponding  
data direction bits of the TRISE register (TRISE<2:0>)  
must be configured as inputs (set). The A/D port config-  
uration bits PCFG2:PCFG0 (ADCON1<2:0>) must be  
set, which will configure pins RE2:RE0 as digital I/O.

10.2.1 SWITCHING PRESCALER ASSIGNMENT  
10.1 Timer0 Operation  
Timer0 can operate as a timer or as a counter.  
The prescaler assignment is fully under software con-  
trol, (i.e., it can be changed “on-the-fly” during program  
execution).  
Timer mode is selected by clearing the T0CS bit. In  
Timer mode, the Timer0 module will increment every  
instruction cycle (without prescaler). If the TMR0L reg-  
ister is written, the increment is inhibited for the follow-  
ing two instruction cycles. The user can work around  
this by writing an adjusted value to the TMR0L register.  
10.3 Timer0 Interrupt  
The TMR0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0 reg-  
ister overflows from FFh to 00h in 8-bit mode, or FFFFh  
to 0000h in 16-bit mode. This overflow sets the TMR0IF  
bit. The interrupt can be masked by clearing the  
TMR0IE bit. The TMR0IE bit must be cleared in soft-  
ware by the Timer0 module Interrupt Service Routine  
before re-enabling this interrupt. The TMR0 interrupt  
cannot awaken the processor from SLEEP, since the  
timer is shut-off during SLEEP.  
Counter mode is selected by setting the T0CS bit. In  
Counter mode, Timer0 will increment, either on every  
rising or falling edge of pin RA4/T0CKI. The increment-  
ing edge is determined by the Timer0 Source Edge  
Select bit (T0SE). Clearing the T0SE bit selects the ris-  
ing edge. Restrictions on the external clock input are  
discussed below.  
When an external clock input is used for Timer0, it must  
meet certain requirements. The requirements ensure  
the external clock can be synchronized with the internal  
phase clock (TOSC). Also, there is a delay in the actual  
incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization.  
10.4 16-Bit Mode Timer Reads and  
Writes  
TMR0H is not the high byte of the timer/counter in  
16-bit mode, but is actually a buffered version of the  
high byte of Timer0 (refer to Figure 10-2). The high byte  
of the Timer0 counter/timer is not directly readable nor  
writable. TMR0H is updated with the contents of the  
high byte of Timer0 during a read of TMR0L. This pro-  
vides the ability to read all 16-bits of Timer0 without  
having to verify that the read of the high and low byte  
were valid due to a rollover between successive reads  
of the high and low byte.  
10.2 Prescaler  
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the Timer0  
module. The prescaler is not readable or writable.  
The PSA and T0PS2:T0PS0 bits determine the  
prescaler assignment and prescale ratio.  
Clearing bit PSA will assign the prescaler to the Timer0  
module. When the prescaler is assigned to the Timer0  
module, prescale values of 1:2, 1:4,..., 1:256 are  
selectable.  
A write to the high byte of Timer0 must also take place  
through the TMR0H buffer register. Timer0 high byte is  
updated with the contents of TMR0H when a write  
occurs to TMR0L. This allows all 16-bits of Timer0 to be  
updated at once.  
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions  
writing to the TMR0L register (e.g., CLRF TMR0,  
MOVWF TMR0, BSF TMR0, x....etc.) will clear the  
prescaler count.  
Note: Writing to TMR0L when the prescaler is  
assigned to Timer0 will clear the prescaler  
count, but will not change the prescaler  
assignment.

11.0 TIMER1 MODULE  
The Timer1 module timer/counter has the following  
features:  
Register 11-1 details the Timer1 control register. This  
register controls the Operating mode of the Timer1  
module, and contains the Timer1 oscillator enable bit  
(T1OSCEN). Timer1 can be enabled or disabled by  
setting or clearing control bit TMR1ON (T1CON<0>).

When TMR1CS = 0, Timer1 increments every instruc-  
tion cycle. When TMR1CS = 1, Timer1 increments on  
every rising edge of the external clock input or the  
Timer1 oscillator, if enabled.  
11.1 Timer1 Operation  
Timer1 can operate in one of these modes:  
• As a timer  
• As a synchronous counter  
• As an asynchronous counter  
When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is  
set), the RC1/T1OSI and RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI pins  
become inputs. That is, the TRISC<1:0> value is  
ignored, and the pins are read as ‘0’.  
The Operating mode is determined by the clock select  
bit, TMR1CS (T1CON<1>).  
Timer1 also has an internal “RESET input”. This  
RESET can be generated by the CCP module  
(Section 14.0).

11.2 Timer1 Oscillator  
11.4 Resetting Timer1 using a CCP  
Trigger Output  
A crystal oscillator circuit is built-in between pins T1OSI  
(input) and T1OSO (amplifier output). It is enabled by  
setting control bit T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>). The oscilla-  
tor is a low power oscillator rated up to 200 kHz. It will  
continue to run during SLEEP. It is primarily intended  
for a 32 kHz crystal. Table 11-1 shows the capacitor  
selection for the Timer1 oscillator.  
If the CCP module is configured in Compare mode to  
generate a “special event trigger” (CCP1M3:CCP1M0  
= 1011), this signal will reset Timer1 and start an A/D  
conversion (if the A/D module is enabled).  
Note: The special event triggers from the CCP1  
module will not set interrupt flag bit  
TMR1IF (PIR1<0>).  
The user must provide a software time delay to ensure  
proper start-up of the Timer1 oscillator.  
Timer1 must be configured for either Timer or Synchro-  
nized Counter mode to take advantage of this feature.  
If Timer1 is running in Asynchronous Counter mode,  
this RESET operation may not work.  
TABLE 11-1: CAPACITOR SELECTION FOR  
THE ALTERNATE  
OSCILLATOR

special event trigger from CCP1, the write will take  
precedence.

11.5 Timer1 16-Bit Read/Write Mode  
Note 1: Microchip suggests 33 pF as a starting  
Timer1 can be configured for 16-bit reads and writes  
(see Figure 11-2). When the RD16 control bit  
(T1CON<7>) is set, the address for TMR1H is mapped  
to a buffer register for the high byte of Timer1. A read  
from TMR1L will load the contents of the high byte of  
Timer1 into the Timer1 high byte buffer. This provides  
the user with the ability to accurately read all 16-bits of  
Timer1 without having to determine whether a read of  
the high byte followed by a read of the low byte is valid,  
due to a rollover between reads.  
point in validating the oscillator circuit.  
2: Higher capacitance increases the stability  
of the oscillator, but also increases the  
start-up time.  
3: Since each resonator/crystal has its own  
characteristics, the user should consult  
the  
resonator/crystal  
manufacturer  
for appropriate values of external  
components.  
4: Capacitor values are for design guidance  
A write to the high byte of Timer1 must also take place  
through the TMR1H buffer register. Timer1 high byte is  
updated with the contents of TMR1H when a write  
occurs to TMR1L. This allows a user to write all 16 bits  
to both the high and low bytes of Timer1 at once.  
only.  
11.3 Timer1 Interrupt  
The TMR1 Register pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) increments  
from 0000h to FFFFh and rolls over to 0000h. The  
TMR1 Interrupt, if enabled, is generated on overflow,  
which is latched in interrupt flag bit TMR1IF (PIR1<0>).  
This interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/  
clearing TMR1 interrupt enable bit, TMR1IE (PIE1<0>).  
The high byte of Timer1 is not directly readable or writ-  
able in this mode. All reads and writes must take place  
through the Timer1 high byte buffer register. Writes to  
TMR1H do not clear the Timer1 prescaler. The  
prescaler is only cleared on writes to TMR1L.

12.1 Timer2 Operation  
12.0 TIMER2 MODULE  
Timer2 can be used as the PWM time-base for the  
PWM mode of the CCP 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  
T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON<1:0>). The match out-  
put 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 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 of PR2  
• SSP module optional use of TMR2 output to  
generate clock shift  
The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared  
when any of the following occurs:  
Timer2 has a control register shown in Register 12-1.  
Timer2 can be shut-off by clearing control bit TMR2ON  
(T2CON<2>) to minimize power consumption.  
Figure 12-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer2  
module. Register 12-1 shows the Timer2 control regis-  
ter. The prescaler and postscaler selection of Timer2  
are controlled by this register.  
• a write to the TMR2 register  
• a write to the T2CON register  
• any device RESET (Power-on Reset, MCLR

12.2 Timer2 Interrupt  
12.3 Output of TMR2  
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.  
The output of TMR2 (before the postscaler) is fed to the  
Synchronous Serial Port module, which optionally uses  
it to generate the shift clock.

When TMR3CS = 0, Timer3 increments every instruc-  
tion cycle. When TMR3CS = 1, Timer3 increments on  
every rising edge of the Timer1 external clock input or  
the Timer1 oscillator, if enabled.  
13.1 Timer3 Operation  
Timer3 can operate in one of these modes:  
• As a timer  
• As a synchronous counter  
• As an asynchronous counter  
When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is  
set), the RC1/T1OSI and RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI pins  
become inputs. That is, the TRISC<1:0> value is  
ignored, and the pins are read as ‘0’.  
The Operating mode is determined by the clock select  
bit, TMR3CS (T3CON<1>).  
Timer3 also has an internal “RESET input”. This RESET  
can be generated by the CCP module (Section 14.0).

13.2 Timer1 Oscillator  
13.4 Resetting Timer3 Using a CCP  
Trigger Output  
The Timer1 oscillator may be used as the clock source  
for Timer3. The Timer1 oscillator is enabled by setting  
the T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>) bit. The oscillator is a low  
power oscillator rated up to 200 KHz. See Section 11.0  
for further details.  
If the CCP module is configured in Compare mode to  
generate a “special event trigger” (CCP1M3:CCP1M0  
= 1011), this signal will reset Timer3.  
Note: The special event triggers from the CCP  
module will not set interrupt flag bit,  
TMR3IF (PIR1<0>).  
13.3 Timer3 Interrupt  
The TMR3 Register pair (TMR3H:TMR3L) increments  
from 0000h to FFFFh and rolls over to 0000h. The  
TMR3 Interrupt, if enabled, is generated on overflow,  
which is latched in interrupt flag bit, TMR3IF  
(PIR2<1>). This interrupt can be enabled/disabled by  
setting/clearing TMR3 interrupt enable bit, TMR3IE  
(PIE2<1>).  
Timer3 must be configured for either Timer or Synchro-  
nized Counter mode to take advantage of this feature.  
If Timer3 is running in Asynchronous Counter mode,  
this RESET operation may not work. In the event that a  
write to Timer3 coincides with a special event trigger  
from CCP1, the write will take precedence. In this mode  
of operation, the CCPR1H:CCPR1L registers pair  
effectively becomes the period register for Timer3.

The operation of CCP1 is identical to that of CCP2, with  
the exception of the special event trigger. Therefore,  
operation of a CCP module in the following sections is  
described with respect to CCP1.  
14.0 CAPTURE/COMPARE/PWM  
(CCP) MODULES  
Each CCP (Capture/Compare/PWM) module contains  
a 16-bit register which can operate as a 16-bit Capture  
register, as a 16-bit Compare register or as a PWM  
Master/Slave Duty Cycle register. Table 14-1 shows  
the timer resources of the CCP Module modes.  
Table 14-2 shows the interaction of the CCP modules.

14.3.3  
SOFTWARE INTERRUPT  
14.3 Capture Mode  
When the Capture mode is changed, a false capture  
interrupt may be generated. The user should keep bit  
CCP1IE (PIE1<2>) clear to avoid false interrupts and  
should clear the flag bit, CCP1IF, following any such  
change in Operating mode.  
In Capture mode, CCPR1H:CCPR1L captures the  
16-bit value of the TMR1 or TMR3 registers when an  
event occurs on pin RC2/CCP1. An event is defined as  
one of the following:  
• every falling edge  
• every rising edge  
14.3.4  
CCP PRESCALER  
• every 4th rising edge  
• every 16th rising edge  
There are four prescaler settings, specified by bits  
CCP1M3:CCP1M0. Whenever the CCP module is  
turned off or the CCP module is not in Capture mode,  
the prescaler counter is cleared. This means that any  
RESET will clear the prescaler counter.  
The event is selected by control bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0  
(CCP1CON<3:0>). When a capture is made, the inter-  
rupt request flag bit CCP1IF (PIR1<2>) is set; it must be  
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.  
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 14-1 shows the recom-  
mended method for switching between capture pres-  
calers. This example also clears the prescaler counter  
and will not generate the “false” interrupt.  
14.3.1  
CCP PIN CONFIGURATION  
In Capture mode, the RC2/CCP1 pin should be  
configured as an input by setting the TRISC<2> bit.  
Note: If the RC2/CCP1 is configured as an out-  
put, a write to the port can cause a capture  
condition.

TIMER1/TIMER3 MODE SELECTION  
The timers that are to be used with the capture feature  
(either Timer1 and/or Timer3) must be running in Timer  
mode or Synchronized Counter mode. In Asynchro-  
nous Counter mode, the capture operation may not  
work. The timer to be used with each CCP module is  
selected in the T3CON register.

TIMER1/TIMER3 MODE SELECTION  
14.4 Compare Mode  
Timer1 and/or Timer3 must be running in Timer mode  
or Synchronized Counter mode if the CCP module is  
using the compare feature. In Asynchronous Counter  
mode, the compare operation may not work.  
In Compare mode, the 16-bit CCPR1 (CCPR2) register  
value is constantly compared against either the TMR1  
register pair value, or the TMR3 register pair value.  
When a match occurs, the RC2/CCP1 (RC1/CCP2) pin  
is:  
14.4.3  
SOFTWARE INTERRUPT MODE  
• driven High  
When generate software interrupt is chosen, the CCP1  
pin is not affected. Only a CCP interrupt is generated (if  
enabled).  
• driven Low  
• toggle output (High to Low or Low to High)  
• remains unchanged  
14.4.4  
SPECIAL EVENT TRIGGER  
The action on the pin is based on the value of control  
bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0 (CCP2M3:CCP2M0). At the  
same time, interrupt flag bit CCP1IF (CCP2IF) is set.  
In this mode, an internal hardware trigger is generated,  
which may be used to initiate an action.  
14.4.1  
CCP PIN CONFIGURATION  
The special event trigger output of CCP1 resets the  
TMR1 register pair. This allows the CCPR1 register to  
effectively be a 16-bit programmable period register for  
Timer1.  
The user must configure the CCPx pin as an output by  
clearing the appropriate TRISC bit.  
Note: Clearing the CCP1CON register will force  
the RC2/CCP1 compare output latch to the  
default low level. This is not the PORTC  
I/O data latch.  
The special trigger output of CCPx resets either the  
TMR1 or TMR3 register pair. Additionally, the CCP2  
Special Event Trigger will start an A/D conversion if the  
A/D module is enabled.  
Note: The special event trigger from the CCP2  
module will not set the Timer1 or Timer3  
interrupt flag bits.  
FIGURE 14-2:  
COMPARE MODE OPERATION BLOCK DIAGRAM  
Special Event Trigger will:  
Reset Timer1 or Timer3, but not set Timer1 or Timer3 interrupt flag bit,

14.5.1  
PWM PERIOD  
14.5 PWM Mode  
The PWM period is specified by writing to the PR2  
register. The PWM period can be calculated using the  
following formula:  
In Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode, the CCP1 pin  
produces up to a 10-bit resolution PWM output. Since  
the CCP1 pin is multiplexed with the PORTC data latch,  
the TRISC<2> bit must be cleared to make the CCP1  
pin an output.  
PWM period = (PR2) + 1] • 4 • TOSC •  
(TMR2 prescale value)  
Note: Clearing the CCP1CON register will force  
the CCP1 PWM output latch to the default  
low level. This is not the PORTC I/O data  
latch.  
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  
Figure 14-3 shows a simplified block diagram of the  
CCP module in PWM mode.  
• The CCP1 pin is set (exception: if PWM duty  
cycle = 0%, the CCP1 pin will not be set)  
For a step-by-step procedure on how to set up the CCP  
module for PWM operation, see Section 14.5.3.  
• The PWM duty cycle is latched from CCPR1L into  
CCPR1H  
Note: The Timer2 postscaler (see Section 12.0)  
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.

14.5.2  
PWM DUTY CYCLE  
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing to the  
CCPR1L register and to the CCP1CON<5:4> bits. Up  
to 10-bit resolution is available. The CCPR1L contains  
the eight MSbs and the CCP1CON<5:4> contains the  
two LSbs. This 10-bit value is represented by  
CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>. The following equation is  
used to calculate the PWM duty cycle in time:

occurs (i.e., the period is complete). In PWM mode,  
CCPR1H is a read only register.  
CCP1 pin and  
latch D.C.  
Note: 8-bit timer is concatenated with 2-bit internal Q clock or 2  
bits of the prescaler to create 10-bit time-base.  
The CCPR1H register and a 2-bit internal latch are  
used to double buffer the PWM duty cycle. This double  
buffering is essential for glitchless PWM operation.  
A PWM output (Figure 14-4) has a time-base (period)  
and a time that the output stays high (duty cycle). The  
frequency of the PWM is the inverse of the period  
(1/period).  
When the CCPR1H and 2-bit latch match TMR2 con-  
catenated with an internal 2-bit Q clock or 2 bits of the  
TMR2 prescaler, the CCP1 pin is cleared.

15.3 SPI Mode  
15.0 MASTER SYNCHRONOUS  
SERIAL PORT (MSSP)  
MODULE  
The SPI mode allows 8-bits of data to be synchronously  
transmitted and received, simultaneously. All four modes  
of SPI are supported. To accomplish communication,  
typically three pins are used:  
15.1 Master SSP (MSSP) Module  
Overview  
• Serial Data Out (SDO) - RC5/SDO  
• Serial Data In (SDI) - RC4/SDI/SDA  
• Serial Clock (SCK) - RC3/SCK/SCL/LVDIN  
The Master Synchronous Serial Port (MSSP) module is  
a serial interface useful for communicating with other  
peripheral or microcontroller devices. These peripheral  
devices may be serial EEPROMs, shift registers, dis-  
play drivers, A/D converters, etc. The MSSP module

SSPSR is the shift register used for shifting data in or  
out. SSPBUF is the buffer register to which data bytes  
are written to or read from.  
15.3.1  
REGISTERS  
The MSSP module has four registers for SPI mode  
operation. These are:  
In receive operations, SSPSR and SSPBUF together  
create a double buffered receiver. When SSPSR  
receives a complete byte, it is transferred to SSPBUF  
and the SSPIF interrupt is set.  
• MSSP Control Register1 (SSPCON1)  
• MSSP Status Register (SSPSTAT)  
• Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF)  
• MSSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly  
accessible  
During transmission, the SSPBUF is not double buff-  
ered. A write to SSPBUF will write to both SSPBUF and  
SSPSR.  
SSPCON1 and SSPSTAT are the control and status  
registers in SPI mode operation. The SSPCON1 regis-  
ter is readable and writable. The lower 6 bits of the  
SSPSTAT are read only. The upper two bits of the  
SSPSTAT are read/write.

SSPBUF register during transmission/reception of data  
will be ignored, and the write collision detect bit, WCOL  
(SSPCON1<7>), will be set. User software must clear  
the WCOL bit so that it can be determined if the follow-  
ing write(s) to the SSPBUF register completed  
successfully.  
15.3.2  
OPERATION  
When initializing the SPI, several options need to be  
specified. This is done by programming the appropriate  
control bits (SSPCON1<5:0>) and SSPSTAT<7:6>.  
These control bits allow the following to be specified:  
• Master mode (SCK is the clock output)  
• Slave mode (SCK is the clock input)  
• Clock Polarity (IDLE state of SCK)  
When the application software is expecting to receive  
valid data, the SSPBUF should be read before the next  
byte of data to transfer is written to the SSPBUF. Buffer  
full bit, BF (SSPSTAT<0>), indicates when SSPBUF  
has been loaded with the received data (transmission  
is complete). When the SSPBUF is read, the BF bit is  
cleared. This data may be irrelevant if the SPI is only a  
transmitter. Generally, the MSSP Interrupt is used to  
determine when the transmission/reception has com-  
pleted. The SSPBUF must be read and/or written. If the  
interrupt method is not going to be used, then software  
polling can be done to ensure that a write collision does  
not occur. Example 15-1 shows the loading of the  
SSPBUF (SSPSR) for data transmission.  
• Data input sample phase (middle or end of data  
output time)  
• Clock edge (output data on rising/falling edge of  
SCK)  
• Clock Rate (Master mode only)  
• Slave Select mode (Slave mode only)  
The MSSP consists of a transmit/receive Shift Register  
(SSPSR) and a buffer register (SSPBUF). The SSPSR  
shifts the data in and out of the device, MSb first. The  
SSPBUF holds the data that was written to the SSPSR,  
until the received data is ready. Once the 8 bits of data  
have been received, that byte is moved to the SSPBUF  
register. Then the buffer full detect bit, BF  
(SSPSTAT<0>), and the interrupt flag bit, SSPIF, are  
set. This double buffering of the received data  
(SSPBUF) allows the next byte to start reception before  
reading the data that was just received. Any write to the  
The SSPSR is not directly readable or writable, and  
can only be accessed by addressing the SSPBUF reg-  
ister. Additionally, the MSSP status register (SSPSTAT)  
indicates the various status conditions.

ENABLING SPI I/O  
15.3.4  
TYPICAL CONNECTION  
To enable the serial port, SSP Enable bit, SSPEN  
(SSPCON1<5>), must be set. To reset or reconfigure  
SPI mode, clear the SSPEN bit, re-initialize the  
SSPCON registers, and then set the SSPEN bit. This  
configures the SDI, SDO, SCK, and SS pins as serial  
port pins. For the pins to behave as the serial port func-  
tion, some must have their data direction bits (in the  
TRIS register) appropriately programmed. That is:  
Figure 15-2 shows a typical connection between two  
microcontrollers. The master controller (Processor 1)  
initiates the data transfer by sending the SCK signal.  
Data is shifted out of both shift registers on their pro-  
grammed clock edge, and latched on the opposite  
edge of the clock. Both processors should be pro-  
grammed to the same Clock Polarity (CKP), then both  
controllers would send and receive data at the same  
time. Whether the data is meaningful (or dummy data)  
depends on the application software. This leads to  
three scenarios for data transmission:  
• SDI is automatically controlled by the SPI module  
• SDO must have TRISC<5> bit cleared  
• SCK (Master mode) must have TRISC<3> bit  
cleared  
• Master sends data — Slave sends dummy data  
• Master sends data — Slave sends data  
• SCK (Slave mode) must have TRISC<3> bit set  
• SS must have TRISC<4> bit set  
• Master sends dummy data — Slave sends data  
Any serial port function that is not desired may be  
overridden by programming the corresponding data  
direction (TRIS) register to the opposite value.

Figure 15-3, Figure 15-5, and Figure 15-6, where the  
MSB is transmitted first. In Master mode, the SPI clock  
rate (bit rate) is user programmable to be one of the  
following:  
15.3.5  
MASTER MODE  
The master can initiate the data transfer at any time  
because it controls the SCK. The master determines  
when the slave (Processor 2, Figure 15-2) is to  
broadcast data by the software protocol.  
• FOSC/4 (or TCY)  
• FOSC/16 (or 4 • TCY)  
• FOSC/64 (or 16 • TCY)  
• Timer2 output/2  
In Master mode, the data is transmitted/received as  
soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI is  
only going to receive, the SDO output could be dis-  
abled (programmed as an input). The SSPSR register  
will continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin  
at the programmed clock rate. As each byte is  
received, it will be loaded into the SSPBUF register as  
if a normal received byte (interrupts and status bits  
appropriately set). This could be useful in receiver  
applications as a “Line Activity Monitor” mode.  
This allows a maximum data rate (at 40 MHz) of  
10.00 Mbps.  
Figure 15-3 shows the waveforms for Master mode.  
When the CKE bit is set, the SDO data is valid before  
there is a clock edge on SCK. The change of the input  
sample is shown based on the state of the SMP bit. The  
time when the SSPBUF is loaded with the received  
data is shown.  
The clock polarity is selected by appropriately program-  
ming the CKP bit (SSPCON1<4>). This then, would  
give waveforms for SPI communication as shown in

longer driven, even if in the middle of a transmitted  
byte, and becomes a floating output. External pull-up/  
pull-down resistors may be desirable, depending on the  
application.  
15.3.6  
SLAVE MODE  
In Slave mode, the data is transmitted and received as  
the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the  
last bit is latched, the SSPIF interrupt flag bit is set.  
Note 1: When the SPI is in Slave mode with SS  
pin control enabled (SSPCON<3:0> =  
0100), the SPI module will reset if the SS  
pin is set to VDD.  
While in Slave mode, the external clock is supplied by  
the external clock source on the SCK pin. This external  
clock must meet the minimum high and low times as  
specified in the electrical specifications.  
2: If the SPI is used in Slave mode with CKE  
set, then the SS pin control must be  
enabled.  
While in SLEEP mode, the slave can transmit/receive  
data. When a byte is received, the device will wake-up  
from sleep.  
When the SPI module resets, the bit counter is forced  
to 0. This can be done by either forcing the SS pin to a  
high level or clearing the SSPEN bit.  
15.3.7  
SLAVE SELECT  
SYNCHRONIZATION  
To emulate two-wire communication, the SDO pin can  
be connected to the SDI pin. When the SPI needs to  
operate as a receiver the SDO pin can be configured as  
an input. This disables transmissions from the SDO.  
The SDI can always be left as an input (SDI function),  
since it cannot create a bus conflict.  
The SS pin allows a Synchronous Slave mode. The  
SPI must be in Slave mode with SS pin control enabled  
(SSPCON1<3:0> = 04h). The pin must not be driven  
low for the SS pin to function as an input. The Data  
Latch must be high. When the SS pin is low, transmis-  
sion and reception are enabled and the SDO pin is  
driven. When the SS pin goes high, the SDO pin is no

SLEEP OPERATION  
15.3.10 BUS MODE COMPATIBILITY  
In Master mode, all module clocks are halted and the  
transmission/reception will remain in that state until the  
device wakes from SLEEP. After the device returns to  
Normal mode, the module will continue to transmit/  
receive data.  
Table 15-1 shows the compatibility between the  
standard SPI modes and the states the CKP and CKE  
control bits.  
TABLE 15-1: SPI BUS MODES  
In Slave mode, the SPI transmit/receive shift register  
operates asynchronously to the device. This allows the  
device to be placed in SLEEP mode and data to be  
shifted into the SPI transmit/receive shift register.  
When all 8 bits have been received, the MSSP interrupt  
flag bit will be set and if enabled, will wake the device  
from SLEEP.

REGISTERS  
15.4 I C Mode  
The MSSP module has six registers for I2C operation.  
These are:  
The MSSP module in I2C mode fully implements all  
master and slave functions (including general call sup-  
port) and provides interrupts on START and STOP bits  
in hardware to determine a free bus (multi-master func-  
tion). The MSSP module implements the Standard  
mode specifications, as well as 7-bit and 10-bit  
addressing.  
• MSSP Control Register1 (SSPCON1)  
• MSSP Control Register2 (SSPCON2)  
• MSSP Status Register (SSPSTAT)  
• Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF)  
• MSSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly  
accessible  
Two pins are used for data transfer:  
• Serial clock (SCL) - RC3/SCK/SCL  
• Serial data (SDA) - RC4/SDI/SDA  
• MSSP Address Register (SSPADD)  
SSPCON, SSPCON2 and SSPSTAT are the control  
and status registers in I2C mode operation. The  
SSPCON and SSPCON2 registers are readable and  
writable. The lower 6 bits of the SSPSTAT are read  
only. The upper two bits of the SSPSTAT are read/  
write.  
The user must configure these pins as inputs or outputs  
through the TRISC<4:3> bits.  
FIGURE 15-7:

OPERATION  
15.4.3.1  
Addressing  
Once the MSSP module has been enabled, it waits for  
a START condition to occur. Following the START con-  
dition, the 8-bits are shifted into the SSPSR register. All  
incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the  
clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is  
compared to the value of the SSPADD register. The  
address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth  
clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF  
and SSPOV bits are clear, the following events occur:  
The MSSP module functions are enabled by setting  
MSSP Enable bit, SSPEN (SSPCON<5>).  
The SSPCON1 register allows control of the I2C oper-  
ation. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON<3:0>) allow  
one of the following I2C modes to be selected:  
• I2C Master mode, clock = OSC/4 (SSPADD +1)  
• I2C Slave mode (7-bit address)  
• I2C Slave mode (10-bit address)  
• I2C Slave mode (7-bit address), with START and  
STOP bit interrupts enabled  
1. The SSPSR register value is loaded into the  
SSPBUF register.  
• I2C Slave mode (10-bit address), with START and  
STOP bit interrupts enabled  
• I2C Firmware controlled master operation, slave  
is IDLE  
Selection of any I2C mode, with the SSPEN bit set,  
forces the SCL and SDA pins to be open drain, pro-  
vided these pins are programmed to inputs by setting  
the appropriate TRISC bits. To guarantee proper oper-  
ation of the module, pull-up resistors must be provided  
externally to the SCL and SDA pins.  
2. The buffer full bit BF is set.  
3. An ACK pulse is generated.  
4. MSSP interrupt flag bit, SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set  
(interrupt is generated if enabled) on the falling  
edge of the ninth SCL pulse.  
In 10-bit Address mode, two address bytes need to be  
received by the slave. The five Most Significant bits  
(MSbs) of the first address byte specify if this is a 10-bit  
address. Bit R/W (SSPSTAT<2>) must specify a write  
so the slave device will receive the second address  
byte. For a 10-bit address, the first byte would equal  
11110 A9 A8 0’, where ‘A9’ and ‘A8’ are the two  
MSbs of the address. The sequence of events for 10-bit  
address is as follows, with steps 7 through 9 for the  
slave-transmitter:  
15.4.3  
SLAVE MODE  
In Slave mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be config-  
ured as inputs (TRISC<4:3> set). The MSSP module  
will override the input state with the output data when  
required (slave-transmitter).  
The I2C Slave mode hardware will always generate an  
interrupt on an address match. Through the mode  
select bits, the user can also choose to interrupt on  
START and STOP bits  
1. Receive first (high) byte of Address (bits SSPIF,  
BF and bit UA (SSPSTAT<1>) are set).  
2. Update the SSPADD register with second (low)  
byte of Address (clears bit UA and releases the  
SCL line).  
3. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and  
clear flag bit SSPIF.  
When an address is matched or the data transfer after  
an address match is received, the hardware automati-  
cally will generate the Acknowledge (ACK) pulse and  
load the SSPBUF register with the received value  
currently in the SSPSR register.  
4. Receive second (low) byte of Address (bits  
SSPIF, BF, and UA are set).  
5. Update the SSPADD register with the first (high)  
byte of Address. If match releases SCL line, this  
will clear bit UA.  
Any combination of the following conditions will cause  
the MSSP module not to give this ACK pulse:  
6. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and  
clear flag bit SSPIF.  
• The buffer full bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) was set  
before the transfer was received.  
7. Receive Repeated START condition.  
• The overflow bit SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) was set  
before the transfer was received.  
8. Receive first (high) byte of Address (bits SSPIF  
and BF are set).  
In this case, the SSPSR register value is not loaded  
into the SSPBUF, but bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set. The  
BF bit is cleared by reading the SSPBUF register, while  
bit SSPOV is cleared through software.  
9. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and  
clear flag bit SSPIF.  
The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and  
low for proper operation. The high and low times of the  
I2C specification, as well as the requirement of the  
MSSP module, are shown in timing parameter 100 and  
parameter 101.  
DS39564C-page 138

PIC18FXX2  
The ACK pulse from the master-receiver is latched on  
the rising edge of the ninth SCL input pulse. If the SDA  
line is high (not ACK), then the data transfer is com-  
plete. In this case, when the ACK is latched by the  
slave, the slave logic is reset (resets SSPSTAT regis-  
ter) and the slave monitors for another occurrence of  
the START bit. If the SDA line was low (ACK), the next  
transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF register.  
Again, pin RC3/SCK/SCL must be enabled by setting  
bit CKP.  
15.4.3.2  
Reception  
When the R/W bit of the address byte is clear and an  
address match occurs, the R/W bit of the SSPSTAT  
register is cleared. The received address is loaded into  
the SSPBUF register and the SDA line is held low  
(ACK).  
When the address byte overflow condition exists, then  
the no Acknowledge (ACK) pulse is given. An overflow  
condition is defined as either bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) is  
set, or bit SSPOV (SSPCON1<6>) is set.  
An MSSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer  
byte. The SSPIF bit must be cleared in software and  
the SSPSTAT register is used to determine the status  
of the byte. The SSPIF bit is set on the falling edge of  
the ninth clock pulse.  
An MSSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer  
byte. Flag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) must be cleared in soft-  
ware. The SSPSTAT register is used to determine the  
status of the byte.  
If SEN is enabled (SSPCON1<0>=1), RC3/SCK/SCL  
will be held low (clock stretch) following each data trans-  
fer. The clock must be released by setting bit CKP  
(SSPCON<4>). See Section 15.4.4 (“Clock Stretching”),  
for more detail.  
15.4.3.3  
Transmission  
When the R/W bit of the incoming address byte is set  
and an address match occurs, the R/W bit of the  
SSPSTAT register is set. The received address is  
loaded into the SSPBUF register. The ACK pulse will  
be sent on the ninth bit and pin RC3/SCK/SCL is held  
low, regardless of SEN (see “Clock Stretching”,  
Section 15.4.4, for more detail). By stretching the clock,  
the master will be unable to assert another clock pulse  
until the slave is done preparing the transmit data.The  
transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF register,  
which also loads the SSPSR register. Then pin RC3/  
SCK/SCL should be enabled by setting bit CKP  
(SSPCON1<4>). The eight data bits are shifted out on  
the falling edge of the SCL input. This ensures that the  
SDA signal is valid during the SCL high time  
(Figure 15-9).

CLOCK STRETCHING  
15.4.4.3  
Clock Stretching for 7-bit Slave  
Transmit Mode  
Both 7- and 10-bit Slave modes implement automatic  
clock stretching during a transmit sequence.  
7-bit Slave Transmit mode implements clock stretching  
by clearing the CKP bit after the falling edge of the  
ninth clock, if the BF bit is clear. This occurs,  
regardless of the state of the SEN bit.  
The SEN bit (SSPCON2<0>) allows clock stretching to  
be enabled during receives. Setting SEN will cause  
the SCL pin to be held low at the end of each data  
receive sequence.  
The user’s ISR must set the CKP bit before transmis-  
sion is allowed to continue. By holding the SCL line  
low, the user has time to service the ISR and load the  
contents of the SSPBUF before the master device can  
initiate another transmit sequence (see Figure 15-9).  
15.4.4.1  
Clock Stretching for 7-bit Slave  
Receive Mode (SEN = 1)  
In 7-bit Slave Receive mode, on the falling edge of the  
ninth clock at the end of the ACK sequence, if the BF  
bit is set, the CKP bit in the SSPCON1 register is auto-  
matically cleared, forcing the SCL output to be held  
low. The CKP being cleared to ‘0’ will assert the SCL  
line low. The CKP bit must be set in the user’s ISR  
before reception is allowed to continue. By holding the  
SCL line low, the user has time to service the ISR and  
read the contents of the SSPBUF before the master  
device can initiate another receive sequence. This will  
prevent buffer overruns from occurring (see  
Figure 15-13).  
Note 1: If the user loads the contents of SSPBUF,  
setting the BF bit before the falling edge of  
the ninth clock, the CKP bit will not be  
cleared and clock stretching will not occur.  
2: The CKP bit can be set in software,  
regardless of the state of the BF bit.  
15.4.4.4  
Clock Stretching for 10-bit Slave  
Transmit Mode  
In 10-bit Slave Transmit mode, clock stretching is con-  
trolled during the first two address sequences by the  
state of the UA bit, just as it is in 10-bit Slave Receive  
mode. The first two addresses are followed by a third  
address sequence, which contains the high order bits  
of the 10-bit address and the R/W bit set to ‘1’. After  
the third address sequence is performed, the UA bit is  
not set, the module is now configured in Transmit  
mode, and clock stretching is controlled by the BF flag,  
as in 7-bit Slave Transmit mode (see Figure 15-11).  
Note 1: If the user reads the contents of the  
SSPBUF before the falling edge of the  
ninth clock, thus clearing the BF bit, the  
CKP bit will not be cleared and clock  
stretching will not occur.  
2: The CKP bit can be set in software,  
regardless of the state of the BF bit. The  
user should be careful to clear the BF bit  
in the ISR before the next receive  
sequence, in order to prevent an overflow  
condition.  
15.4.4.2  
Clock Stretching for 10-bit Slave  
Receive Mode (SEN = 1)  
In 10-bit Slave Receive mode, during the address  
sequence, clock stretching automatically takes place  
but CKP is not cleared. During this time, if the UA bit is  
set after the ninth clock, clock stretching is initiated.  
The UA bit is set after receiving the upper byte of the  
10-bit address, and following the receive of the second  
byte of the 10-bit address with the R/W bit cleared to  
‘0’. The release of the clock line occurs upon updating  
SSPADD. Clock stretching will occur on each data  
receive sequence as described in 7-bit mode.  
Note: If the user polls the UA bit and clears it by  
updating the SSPADD register before the  
falling edge of the ninth clock occurs, and if  
the user hasn’t cleared the BF bit by read-  
ing the SSPBUF register before that time,  
then the CKP bit will still NOT be asserted  
low. Clock stretching on the basis of the  
state of the BF bit only occurs during a data  
sequence, not an address sequence.

PIC18FXX2  
15.4.4.5  
Clock Synchronization and  
the CKP bit  
If a user clears the CKP bit, the SCL output is forced to  
‘0’. Setting the CKP bit will not assert the SCL output  
low until the SCL output is already sampled low. If the  
user attempts to drive SCL low, the CKP bit will not  
assert the SCL line until an external I2C master device  
has already asserted the SCL line. The SCL output will  
remain low until the CKP bit is set, and all other  
devices on the I2C bus have de-asserted SCL. This  
ensures that a write to the CKP bit will not violate the  
minimum high time requirement for SCL (see  
Figure 15-12).

If the general call address matches, the SSPSR is  
transferred to the SSPBUF, the BF flag bit is set (eighth  
bit), and on the falling edge of the ninth bit (ACK bit),  
the SSPIF interrupt flag bit is set.  
15.4.5  
GENERAL CALL ADDRESS  
SUPPORT  
The addressing procedure for the I2C bus is such that  
the first byte after the START condition usually deter-  
mines which device will be the slave addressed by the  
master. The exception is the general call address,  
which can address all devices. When this address is  
used, all devices should, in theory, respond with an  
Acknowledge.  
When the interrupt is serviced, the source for the inter-  
rupt can be checked by reading the contents of the  
SSPBUF. The value can be used to determine if the  
address was device specific or a general call address.  
In 10-bit mode, the SSPADD is required to be updated  
for the second half of the address to match, and the UA  
bit is set (SSPSTAT<1>). If the general call address is  
sampled when the GCEN bit is set, while the slave is  
configured in 10-bit Address mode, then the second  
half of the address is not necessary, the UA bit will not  
be set, and the slave will begin receiving data after the  
Acknowledge (Figure 15-15).  
The general call address is one of eight addresses  
reserved for specific purposes by the I2C protocol. It  
consists of all 0’s with R/W = 0.  
The general call address is recognized when the Gen-  
eral Call Enable bit (GCEN) is enabled (SSPCON2<7>  
set). Following a START bit detect, 8-bits are shifted  
into the SSPSR and the address is compared against  
the SSPADD. It is also compared to the general call  
address and fixed in hardware.

Note: The MSSP Module, when configured in I2C  
Master mode, does not allow queueing of  
events. For instance, the user is not  
allowed to initiate a START condition and  
immediately write the SSPBUF register to  
initiate transmission before the START  
condition is complete. In this case, the  
SSPBUF will not be written to and the  
WCOL bit will be set, indicating that a write  
to the SSPBUF did not occur.  
15.4.6  
MASTER MODE  
Master mode is enabled by setting and clearing the  
appropriate SSPM bits in SSPCON1 and by setting the  
SSPEN bit. In Master mode, the SCL and SDA lines  
are manipulated by the MSSP hardware.  
Master mode of operation is supported by interrupt  
generation on the detection of the START and STOP  
conditions. The STOP (P) and START (S) bits are  
cleared from a RESET or when the MSSP module is  
disabled. Control of the I2C bus may be taken when the  
P bit is set or the bus is IDLE, with both the S and P bits  
clear.  
The following events will cause SSP interrupt flag bit,  
SSPIF, to be set (SSP interrupt if enabled):  
In Firmware Controlled Master mode, user code con-  
ducts all I2C bus operations based on START and  
STOP bit conditions.  
• START condition  
• STOP condition  
• Data transfer byte transmitted/received  
• Acknowledge Transmit  
• Repeated START  
Once Master mode is enabled, the user has six  
options.  
1. Assert a START condition on SDA and SCL.  
2. Assert a Repeated START condition on SDA  
and SCL.  
3. Write to the SSPBUF register initiating  
transmission of data/address.  
4. Configure the I2C port to receive data.  
5. Generate an Acknowledge condition at the end  
of a received byte of data.  
6. Generate a STOP condition on SDA and SCL.

I2C Master Mode Operation  
A typical transmit sequence would go as follows:  
1. The user generates a START condition by set-  
15.4.6.1  
The master device generates all of the serial clock  
pulses and the START and STOP conditions. A trans-  
fer is ended with a STOP condition or with a Repeated  
START condition. Since the Repeated START condi-  
tion is also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the  
I2C bus will not be released.  
ting  
the  
START  
enable  
bit,  
SEN  
(SSPCON2<0>).  
2. SSPIF is set. The MSSP module will wait the  
required start time before any other operation  
takes place.  
3. The user loads the SSPBUF with the slave  
address to transmit.  
In Master Transmitter mode, serial data is output  
through SDA, while SCL outputs the serial clock. The  
first byte transmitted contains the slave address of the  
receiving device (7 bits) and the Read/Write (R/W) bit.  
In this case, the R/W bit will be logic '0'. Serial data is  
transmitted 8 bits at a time. After each byte is transmit-  
ted, an Acknowledge bit is received. START and STOP  
conditions are output to indicate the beginning and the  
end of a serial transfer.  
4. Address is shifted out the SDA pin until all 8 bits  
are transmitted.  
5. The MSSP Module shifts in the ACK bit from the  
slave device and writes its value into the  
SSPCON2 register (SSPCON2<6>).  
6. The MSSP module generates an interrupt at the  
end of the ninth clock cycle by setting the SSPIF  
bit.  
In Master Receive mode, the first byte transmitted con-  
tains the slave address of the transmitting device  
(7 bits) and the R/W bit. In this case, the R/W bit will be  
logic '1'. Thus, the first byte transmitted is a 7-bit slave  
address followed by a '1' to indicate receive bit. Serial  
data is received via SDA, while SCL outputs the serial  
clock. Serial data is received 8 bits at a time. After each  
byte is received, an Acknowledge bit is transmitted.  
START and STOP conditions indicate the beginning  
and end of transmission.  
7. The user loads the SSPBUF with eight bits of  
data.  
8. Data is shifted out the SDA pin until all 8 bits are  
transmitted.  
9. The MSSP Module shifts in the ACK bit from the  
slave device and writes its value into the  
SSPCON2 register (SSPCON2<6>).  
10. The MSSP module generates an interrupt at the  
end of the ninth clock cycle by setting the SSPIF  
bit.  
The baud rate generator used for the SPI mode opera-  
tion is used to set the SCL clock frequency for either  
100 kHz, 400 kHz or 1 MHz I2C operation. See  
Section 15.4.7 (“Baud Rate Generator”), for more  
detail.  
11. The user generates a STOP condition by setting  
the STOP enable bit PEN (SSPCON2<2>).  
12. Interrupt is generated once the STOP condition  
is complete.

Once the given operation is complete (i.e., transmis-  
sion of the last data bit is followed by ACK), the internal  
clock will automatically stop counting and the SCL pin  
will remain in its last state.  
15.4.7  
BAUD RATE GENERATOR  
In I2C Master mode, the baud rate generator (BRG)  
reload value is placed in the lower 7 bits of the  
SSPADD register (Figure 15-17). When a write occurs  
to SSPBUF, the baud rate generator will automatically  
begin counting. The BRG counts down to 0 and stops  
until another reload has taken place. The BRG count is  
decremented twice per instruction cycle (TCY) on the  
Q2 and Q4 clocks. In I2C Master mode, the BRG is  
reloaded automatically.  
Table 15-3 demonstrates clock rates based on  
instruction cycles and the BRG value loaded into  
SSPADD.

the contents of SSPADD<6:0> and begins counting.  
This ensures that the SCL high time will always be at  
least one BRG rollover count, in the event that the clock  
is held low by an external device (Figure 15-18).  
15.4.7.1  
Clock Arbitration  
Clock arbitration occurs when the master, during any  
receive, transmit or Repeated START/STOP condition,  
de-asserts the SCL pin (SCL allowed to float high).  
When the SCL pin is allowed to float high, the baud rate  
generator (BRG) is suspended from counting until the  
SCL pin is actually sampled high. When the SCL pin is

I2C MASTER MODE START  
CONDITION TIMING  
15.4.8.1  
WCOL Status Flag  
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a START  
sequence is in progress, the WCOL is set and the con-  
tents of the buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t  
occur).  
To initiate a START condition, the user sets the START  
condition enable bit, SEN (SSPCON2<0>). If the SDA  
and SCL pins are sampled high, the baud rate genera-  
tor is reloaded with the contents of SSPADD<6:0> and  
starts its count. If SCL and SDA are both sampled high  
when the baud rate generator times out (TBRG), the  
SDA pin is driven low. The action of the SDA being  
driven low, while SCL is high, is the START condition  
and causes the S bit (SSPSTAT<3>) to be set. Follow-  
ing this, the baud rate generator is reloaded with the  
contents of SSPADD<6:0> and resumes its count.  
When the baud rate generator times out (TBRG), the  
SEN bit (SSPCON2<0>) will be automatically cleared  
by hardware, the baud rate generator is suspended,  
leaving the SDA line held low and the START condition  
is complete.  
Note: Because queueing of events is not  
allowed, writing to the lower 5 bits of  
SSPCON2 is disabled until the START  
condition is complete.  
Note: If at the beginning of the START condition,  
the SDA and SCL pins are already sam-  
pled low, or if during the START condition  
the SCL line is sampled low before the  
SDA line is driven low, a bus collision  
occurs, the Bus Collision Interrupt Flag,  
BCLIF is set, the START condition is  
aborted, and the I2C module is reset into its  
IDLE state.

START CONDITION TIMING  
Immediately following the SSPIF bit getting set, the  
user may write the SSPBUF with the 7-bit address in  
7-bit mode, or the default first address in 10-bit mode.  
After the first eight bits are transmitted and an ACK is  
received, the user may then transmit an additional eight  
bits of address (10-bit mode) or eight bits of data (7-bit  
mode).  
15.4.9  
A Repeated START condition occurs when the RSEN  
bit (SSPCON2<1>) is programmed high and the I2C  
logic module is in the IDLE state. When the RSEN bit is  
set, the SCL pin is asserted low. When the SCL pin is  
sampled low, the baud rate generator is loaded with the  
contents of SSPADD<5:0> and begins counting. The  
SDA pin is released (brought high) for one baud rate  
generator count (TBRG). When the baud rate generator  
times out, if SDA is sampled high, the SCL pin will be  
de-asserted (brought high). When SCL is sampled  
high, the baud rate generator is reloaded with the con-  
tents of SSPADD<6:0> and begins counting. SDA and  
SCL must be sampled high for one TBRG. This action is  
then followed by assertion of the SDA pin (SDA = 0) for  
15.4.9.1  
WCOL Status Flag  
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a Repeated  
START sequence is in progress, the WCOL is set and  
the contents of the buffer are unchanged (the write  
doesn’t occur).  
Note: Because queueing of events is not  
allowed, writing of the lower 5 bits of

one TBRG while SCL is high. Following this, the RSEN  
,
bit (SSPCON2<1>) will be automatically cleared and  
the baud rate generator will not be reloaded, leaving  
the SDA pin held low. As soon as a START condition is  
detected on the SDA and SCL pins, the S bit  
(SSPSTAT<3>) will be set. The SSPIF bit will not be set  
until the baud rate generator has timed out.  
Note 1: If RSEN is programmed while any other  
event is in progress, it will not take effect.  
2: A bus collision during the Repeated  
START condition occurs if:  
• SDA is sampled low when SCL goes  
from low to high.  
• SCL goes low before SDA is  
asserted low. This may indicate that  
another master is attempting to  
transmit a data "1".

15.4.10 I2C MASTER MODE  
TRANSMISSION  
15.4.10.3 ACKSTAT Status Flag  
In Transmit mode, the ACKSTAT bit (SSPCON2<6>) is  
cleared when the slave has sent an Acknowledge (ACK  
= 0), and is set when the slave does not Acknowledge  
(ACK = 1). A slave sends an Acknowledge when it has  
recognized its address (including a general call) or  
when the slave has properly received its data.  
Transmission of a data byte, a 7-bit address, or the  
other half of a 10-bit address is accomplished by simply  
writing a value to the SSPBUF register. This action will  
set the buffer full flag bit, BF, and allow the baud rate  
generator to begin counting and start the next transmis-  
sion. Each bit of address/data will be shifted out onto  
the SDA pin after the falling edge of SCL is asserted  
(see data hold time specification parameter 106). SCL  
is held low for one baud rate generator rollover count  
(TBRG). Data should be valid before SCL is released  
high (see data setup time specification parameter 107).  
When the SCL pin is released high, it is held that way  
for TBRG. The data on the SDA pin must remain stable  
for that duration and some hold time after the next fall-  
ing edge of SCL. After the eighth bit is shifted out (the  
falling edge of the eighth clock), the BF flag is cleared  
and the master releases SDA. This allows the slave  
device being addressed to respond with an ACK bit  
during the ninth bit time if an address match occurred  
or if data was received properly. The status of ACK is  
written into the ACKDT bit on the falling edge of the  
ninth clock. If the master receives an Acknowledge, the  
Acknowledge status bit, ACKSTAT, is cleared. If not,  
the bit is set. After the ninth clock, the SSPIF bit is set  
and the master clock (baud rate generator) is sus-  
pended until the next data byte is loaded into the  
SSPBUF, leaving SCL low and SDA unchanged  
(Figure 15-21).  
15.4.11 I2C MASTER MODE RECEPTION  
Master mode reception is enabled by programming the  
receive enable bit, RCEN (SSPCON2<3>).  
Note: In the MSSP module, the RCEN bit must  
be set after the ACK sequence or the  
RCEN bit will be disregarded.  
The baud rate generator begins counting, and on each  
rollover, the state of the SCL pin changes (high to low/  
low to high) and data is shifted into the SSPSR. After  
the falling edge of the eighth clock, the receive enable  
flag is automatically cleared, the contents of the  
SSPSR are loaded into the SSPBUF, the BF flag bit is  
set, the SSPIF flag bit is set and the baud rate genera-  
tor is suspended from counting, holding SCL low. The  
MSSP is now in IDLE state, awaiting the next com-  
mand. When the buffer is read by the CPU, the BF flag  
bit is automatically cleared. The user can then send an  
Acknowledge bit at the end of reception, by setting the  
Acknowledge sequence enable bit, ACKEN  
(SSPCON2<4>).  
15.4.11.1 BF Status Flag  
After the write to the SSPBUF, each bit of address will  
be shifted out on the falling edge of SCL until all seven  
address bits and the R/W bit are completed. On the fall-  
ing edge of the eighth clock, the master will de-assert  
the SDA pin, allowing the slave to respond with an  
Acknowledge. On the falling edge of the ninth clock, the  
master will sample the SDA pin to see if the address  
was recognized by a slave. The status of the ACK bit is  
loaded into the ACKSTAT status bit (SSPCON2<6>).  
Following the falling edge of the ninth clock transmis-  
sion of the address, the SSPIF is set, the BF flag is  
cleared and the baud rate generator is turned off until  
another write to the SSPBUF takes place, holding SCL  
low and allowing SDA to float.  
In receive operation, the BF bit is set when an address  
or data byte is loaded into SSPBUF from SSPSR. It is  
cleared when the SSPBUF register is read.  
15.4.11.2 SSPOV Status Flag  
In receive operation, the SSPOV bit is set when 8 bits  
are received into the SSPSR and the BF flag bit is  
already set from a previous reception.  
15.4.11.3 WCOL Status Flag  
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a receive is  
already in progress (i.e., SSPSR is still shifting in a data  
byte), the WCOL bit is set and the contents of the buffer  
are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur).  
15.4.10.1 BF Status Flag  
In Transmit mode, the BF bit (SSPSTAT<0>) is set  
when the CPU writes to SSPBUF and is cleared when  
all 8 bits are shifted out.  
15.4.10.2 WCOL Status Flag  
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a transmit is  
already in progress (i.e., SSPSR is still shifting out a  
data byte), the WCOL is set and the contents of the  
buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur).  
WCOL must be cleared in software.

15.4.12 ACKNOWLEDGE SEQUENCE  
TIMING  
15.4.13 STOP CONDITION TIMING  
A STOP bit is asserted on the SDA pin at the end of a  
receive/transmit by setting the STOP sequence enable  
bit, PEN (SSPCON2<2>). At the end of a receive/trans-  
mit the SCL line is held low after the falling edge of the  
ninth clock. When the PEN bit is set, the master will  
assert the SDA line low. When the SDA line is sampled  
low, the baud rate generator is reloaded and counts  
down to 0. When the baud rate generator times out, the  
SCL pin will be brought high, and one TBRG (baud rate  
generator rollover count) later, the SDA pin will be  
de-asserted. When the SDA pin is sampled high while  
SCL is high, the P bit (SSPSTAT<4>) is set. A TBRG  
later, the PEN bit is cleared and the SSPIF bit is set  
(Figure 15-24).  
An Acknowledge sequence is enabled by setting the  
Acknowledge  
sequence  
enable  
bit,  
ACKEN  
(SSPCON2<4>). When this bit is set, the SCL pin is  
pulled low and the contents of the Acknowledge data bit  
are presented on the SDA pin. If the user wishes to gen-  
erate an Acknowledge, then the ACKDT bit should be  
cleared. If not, the user should set the ACKDT bit before  
starting an Acknowledge sequence. The baud rate gen-  
erator then counts for one rollover period (TBRG) and the  
SCL pin is de-asserted (pulled high). When the SCL pin  
is sampled high (clock arbitration), the baud rate gener-  
ator counts for TBRG. The SCL pin is then pulled low. Fol-  
lowing this, the ACKEN bit is automatically cleared, the  
baud rate generator is turned off and the MSSP module  
then goes into IDLE mode (Figure 15-23).  
15.4.13.1 WCOL Status Flag  
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a STOP sequence  
is in progress, then the WCOL bit is set and the con-

15.4.14 SLEEP OPERATION  
15.4.17 MULTI -MASTER COMMUNICATION,  
BUS COLLISION, AND BUS  
ARBITRATION  
While in SLEEP mode, the I2C module can receive  
addresses or data, and when an address match or  
complete byte transfer occurs, wake the processor  
from SLEEP (if the MSSP interrupt is enabled).  
Multi-Master mode support is achieved by bus arbitra-  
tion. When the master outputs address/data bits onto  
the SDA pin, arbitration takes place when the master  
outputs a '1' on SDA, by letting SDA float high and  
another master asserts a '0'. When the SCL pin floats  
high, data should be stable. If the expected data on  
SDA is a '1' and the data sampled on the SDA pin = '0',  
then a bus collision has taken place. The master will set  
the Bus Collision Interrupt Flag BCLIF and reset the I2C  
port to its IDLE state (Figure 15-25).  
15.4.15 EFFECT OF A RESET  
A RESET disables the MSSP module and terminates  
the current transfer.  
15.4.16 MULTI-MASTER MODE  
In Multi-Master mode, the interrupt generation on the  
detection of the START and STOP conditions allows the  
determination of when the bus is free. The STOP (P)  
and START (S) bits are cleared from a RESET or when  
the MSSP module is disabled. Control of the I2C bus  
may be taken when the P bit (SSPSTAT<4>) is set, or  
the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear. When the  
bus is busy, enabling the SSP interrupt will generate the  
interrupt when the STOP condition occurs.  
If a transmit was in progress when the bus collision  
occurred, the transmission is halted, the BF flag is  
cleared, the SDA and SCL lines are de-asserted, and  
the SSPBUF can be written to. When the user services  
the bus collision Interrupt Service Routine, and if the  
I2C bus is free, the user can resume communication by  
asserting a START condition.  
If a START, Repeated START, STOP, or Acknowledge  
condition was in progress when the bus collision  
occurred, the condition is aborted, the SDA and SCL  
lines are de-asserted, and the respective control bits in  
the SSPCON2 register are cleared. When the user ser-  
vices the bus collision Interrupt Service Routine, and if  
the I2C bus is free, the user can resume communication  
by asserting a START condition.  
In multi-master operation, the SDA line must be moni-  
tored for arbitration, to see if the signal level is the  
expected output level. This check is performed in  
hardware, with the result placed in the BCLIF bit.  
The states where arbitration can be lost are:  
• Address Transfer  
• Data Transfer  
The master will continue to monitor the SDA and SCL  
pins. If a STOP condition occurs, the SSPIF bit will be set.  
• A START Condition  
• A Repeated START Condition  
• An Acknowledge Condition  
A write to the SSPBUF will start the transmission of  
data at the first data bit, regardless of where the  
transmitter left off when the bus collision occurred.  
In Multi-Master mode, the interrupt generation on the  
detection of START and STOP conditions allows the  
determination of when the bus is free. Control of the I2C  
bus can be taken when the P bit is set in the SSPSTAT  
register, or the bus is IDLE and the S and P bits are  
cleared.

If the SDA pin is sampled low during this count, the  
BRG is reset and the SDA line is asserted early  
(Figure 15-28). If, however, a '1' is sampled on the SDA  
pin, the SDA pin is asserted low at the end of the BRG  
count. The baud rate generator is then reloaded and  
counts down to 0, and during this time, if the SCL pins  
are sampled as '0', a bus collision does not occur. At  
the end of the BRG count, the SCLpin is asserted low.  
15.4.17.1 Bus Collision During a START  
Condition  
During a START condition, a bus collision occurs if:  
a) SDA or SCL are sampled low at the beginning of  
the START condition (Figure 15-26).  
b) SCL is sampled low before SDA is asserted low  
(Figure 15-27).  
During a START condition, both the SDA and the SCL  
pins are monitored.  
Note: The reason that bus collision is not a factor  
during a START condition is that no two  
bus masters can assert a START condition  
at the exact same time. Therefore, one  
master will always assert SDA before the  
other. This condition does not cause a bus  
collision, because the two masters must be  
allowed to arbitrate the first address follow-  
ing the START condition. If the address is  
the same, arbitration must be allowed to  
continue into the data portion, Repeated  
START or STOP conditions.  
If the SDA pin is already low, or the SCL pin is already  
low, then all of the following occur:  
• the START condition is aborted,  
• the BCLIF flag is set, and  
• the MSSP module is reset to its IDLE state  
(Figure 15-26).  
The START condition begins with the SDA and SCL  
pins de-asserted. When the SDA pin is sampled high,  
the baud rate generator is loaded from SSPADD<6:0>  
and counts down to 0. If the SCL pin is sampled low  
while SDA is high, a bus collision occurs, because it is  
assumed that another master is attempting to drive a  
data '1' during the START condition.

reloaded and begins counting. If SDA goes from high to  
low before the BRG times out, no bus collision occurs  
because no two masters can assert SDA at exactly the  
same time.  
15.4.17.2 Bus Collision During a Repeated  
START Condition  
During a Repeated START condition, a bus collision  
occurs if:  
If SCL goes from high to low before the BRG times out  
and SDA has not already been asserted, a bus collision  
occurs. In this case, another master is attempting to  
transmit a data ’1’ during the Repeated START  
condition, Figure 15-30.  
a) A low level is sampled on SDA when SCL goes  
from low level to high level.  
b) SCL goes low before SDA is asserted low, indi-  
cating that another master is attempting to  
transmit a data ’1’.  
If, at the end of the BRG time-out both SCL and SDA  
are still high, the SDA pin is driven low and the BRG is  
reloaded and begins counting. At the end of the count,  
regardless of the status of the SCL pin, the SCL pin is  
driven low and the Repeated START condition is  
complete.  
When the user de-asserts SDA and the pin is allowed  
to float high, the BRG is loaded with SSPADD<6:0>  
and counts down to 0. The SCL pin is then de-asserted,  
and when sampled high, the SDA pin is sampled.  
If SDA is low, a bus collision has occurred (i.e., another  
master is attempting to transmit  
a
data ’0’,  
Figure 15-29). If SDA is sampled high, the BRG is

The STOP condition begins with SDA asserted low.  
When SDA is sampled low, the SCL pin is allowed to  
float. When the pin is sampled high (clock arbitration),  
the baud rate generator is loaded with SSPADD<6:0>  
and counts down to 0. After the BRG times out, SDA is  
sampled. If SDA is sampled low, a bus collision has  
occurred. This is due to another master attempting to  
drive a data '0' (Figure 15-31). If the SCL pin is sampled  
low before SDA is allowed to float high, a bus collision  
occurs. This is another case of another master  
attempting to drive a data '0' (Figure 15-32).  
15.4.17.3 Bus Collision During a STOP  
Condition  
Bus collision occurs during a STOP condition if:  
a) After the SDA pin has been de-asserted and  
allowed to float high, SDA is sampled low after  
the BRG has timed out.  
b) After the SCL pin is de-asserted, SCL is  
sampled low before SDA goes high.

16.0 ADDRESSABLE UNIVERSAL  
SYNCHRONOUS  
ASYNCHRONOUS RECEIVER  
TRANSMITTER (USART)  
The Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver  
Transmitter (USART) module is one of the two serial  
I/O modules. (USART is also known as a Serial Com-  
munications Interface or SCI.) The USART can be con-  
figured as a full duplex asynchronous system that can  
communicate with peripheral devices, such as CRT ter-  
minals and personal computers, or it can be configured  
as a half-duplex synchronous system that can commu-  
nicate with peripheral devices, such as A/D or D/A  
integrated circuits, serial EEPROMs, etc.  
The USART can be configured in the following modes:  
• Asynchronous (full-duplex)  
• Synchronous - Master (half-duplex)  
• Synchronous - Slave (half-duplex)  
In order to configure pins RC6/TX/CK and RC7/RX/DT  
as the Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver  
Transmitter:  
• bit SPEN (RCSTA<7>) must be set (= 1),  
• bit TRISC<6> must be cleared (= 0), and  
• bit TRISC<7> must be set (=1).  
Register 16-1 shows the Transmit Status and Control  
Register (TXSTA) and Register 16-2 shows the  
Receive Status and Control Register (RCSTA).

Example 16-1 shows the calculation of the baud rate  
error for the following conditions:  
16.1 USART Baud Rate Generator  
(BRG)  
• FOSC = 16 MHz  
• Desired Baud Rate = 9600  
• BRGH = 0  
The BRG supports both the Asynchronous and Syn-  
chronous modes of the USART. It is a dedicated 8-bit  
baud rate generator. The SPBRG register controls the  
period of a free running 8-bit timer. In Asynchronous  
mode, bit BRGH (TXSTA<2>) also controls the baud  
rate. In Synchronous mode, bit BRGH is ignored.  
Table 16-1 shows the formula for computation of the  
baud rate for different USART modes, which only apply  
in Master mode (internal clock).  
• SYNC = 0  
It may be advantageous to use the high baud rate  
(BRGH = 1) even for slower baud clocks. This is  
because the FOSC/(16(X + 1)) equation can reduce the  
baud rate error in some cases.  
Writing a new value to the SPBRG register causes the  
BRG timer to be reset (or cleared). This ensures the  
BRG does not wait for a timer overflow before  
outputting the new baud rate.  
Given the desired baud rate and Fosc, the nearest inte-  
ger value for the SPBRG register can be calculated  
using the formula in Table 16-1. From this, the error in  
baud rate can be determined.  
16.1.1  
SAMPLING  
The data on the RC7/RX/DT pin is sampled three times  
by a majority detect circuit to determine if a high or a  
low level is present at the RX pin.

PIC18FXX2  
flag bit TXIF (PIR1<4>) is set. This interrupt can be  
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit TXIE  
( PIE1<4>). Flag bit TXIF will be set, regardless of the  
state of enable bit TXIE and cannot be cleared in soft-  
ware. It will reset only when new data is loaded into the  
TXREG register. While flag bit TXIF indicated the sta-  
tus of the TXREG register, another bit, TRMT  
(TXSTA<1>), shows the status of the TSR register. Sta-  
tus bit TRMT is a read-only bit, which is set when the  
TSR register is empty. No interrupt logic is tied to this  
bit, so the user has to poll this bit in order to determine  
if the TSR register is empty.  
16.2 USART Asynchronous Mode  
In this mode, the USART uses standard non-return-to-  
zero (NRZ) format (one START bit, eight or nine data  
bits and one STOP bit). The most common data format  
is 8-bits. An on-chip dedicated 8-bit baud rate genera-  
tor can be used to derive standard baud rate frequen-  
cies from the oscillator. The USART transmits and  
receives the LSb first. The USART’s transmitter and  
receiver are functionally independent, but use the  
same data format and baud rate. The baud rate gener-  
ator produces a clock, either x16 or x64 of the bit shift  
rate, depending on bit BRGH (TXSTA<2>). Parity is not  
supported by the hardware, but can be implemented in  
software (and stored as the ninth data bit).  
Asynchronous mode is stopped during SLEEP.  
Note 1: The TSR register is not mapped in data  
memory, so it is not available to the user.  
2: Flag bit TXIF is set when enable bit TXEN  
is set.  
Asynchronous mode is selected by clearing bit SYNC  
(TXSTA<4>).  
To set up an asynchronous transmission:  
The USART Asynchronous module consists of the  
following important elements:  
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate  
baud rate. If a high speed baud rate is desired,  
set bit BRGH (Section 16.1).  
• Baud Rate Generator  
• Sampling Circuit  
2. Enable the asynchronous serial port by clearing  
bit SYNC and setting bit SPEN.  
• Asynchronous Transmitter  
• Asynchronous Receiver  
3. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit TXIE.  
4. If 9-bit transmission is desired, set transmit bit  
TX9. Can be used as address/data bit.  
16.2.1  
USART ASYNCHRONOUS  
TRANSMITTER  
5. Enable the transmission by setting bit TXEN,  
which will also set bit TXIF.  
The USART transmitter block diagram is shown in  
Figure 16-1. The heart of the transmitter is the Transmit  
(serial) Shift Register (TSR). The shift register obtains  
its data from the read/write transmit buffer, TXREG. The  
TXREG register is loaded with data in software. The  
TSR register is not loaded until the STOP bit has been  
transmitted from the previous load. As soon as the  
STOP bit is transmitted, the TSR is loaded with new  
data from the TXREG register (if available). Once the  
TXREG register transfers the data to the TSR register  
(occurs in one TCY), the TXREG register is empty and  
6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit  
should be loaded in bit TX9D.  
7. Load data to the TXREG register (starts  
transmission).  
Note: TXIF is not cleared immediately upon load-  
ing data into the transmit buffer TXREG.  
The flag bit becomes valid in the second  
instruction cycle following the load  
instruction.

16.2.3  
SETTING UP 9-BIT MODE WITH  
ADDRESS DETECT  
The receiver block diagram is shown in Figure 16-4.  
The data is received on the RC7/RX/DT pin and drives  
the data recovery block. The data recovery block is  
actually a high speed shifter operating at x16 times the  
baud rate, whereas the main receive serial shifter oper-  
ates at the bit rate or at FOSC. This mode would  
typically be used in RS-232 systems.  
This mode would typically be used in RS-485 systems.  
To set up an Asynchronous Reception with Address  
Detect Enable:  
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate  
baud rate. If a high speed baud rate is required,  
set the BRGH bit.  
2. Enable the asynchronous serial port by clearing  
the SYNC bit and setting the SPEN bit.  
To set up an Asynchronous Reception:  
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate  
baud rate. If a high speed baud rate is desired,  
set bit BRGH (Section 16.1).  
3. If interrupts are required, set the RCEN bit and  
select the desired priority level with the RCIP bit.  
4. Set the RX9 bit to enable 9-bit reception.  
5. Set the ADDEN bit to enable address detect.  
6. Enable reception by setting the CREN bit.  
2. Enable the asynchronous serial port by clearing  
bit SYNC and setting bit SPEN.  
3. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit RCIE.  
4. If 9-bit reception is desired, set bit RX9.  
5. Enable the reception by setting bit CREN.  
7. The RCIF bit will be set when reception is com-  
plete. The interrupt will be acknowledged if the  
RCIE and GIE bits are set.  
6. Flag bit RCIF will be set when reception is com-  
plete and an interrupt will be generated if enable  
bit RCIE was set.  
8. Read the RCSTA register to determine if any  
error occurred during reception, as well as read  
bit 9 of data (if applicable).  
7. Read the RCSTA register to get the ninth bit (if  
enabled) and determine if any error occurred  
during reception.  
9. Read RCREG to determine if the device is being  
addressed.  
10. If any error occurred, clear the CREN bit.  
8. Read the 8-bit received data by reading the  
RCREG register.  
11. If the device has been addressed, clear the  
ADDEN bit to allow all received data into the  
receive buffer and interrupt the CPU.  
9. If any error occurred, clear the error by clearing  
enable bit CREN.  
10. If using interrupts, ensure that the GIE and PEIE  
bits in the INTCON register (INTCON<7:6>) are  
set.

(PIE1<4>). Flag bit TXIF will be set, regardless of the  
state of enable bit TXIE, and cannot be cleared in soft-  
ware. It will reset only when new data is loaded into the  
TXREG register. While flag bit TXIF indicates the status  
of the TXREG register, another bit TRMT (TXSTA<1>)  
shows the status of the TSR register. TRMT is a read  
only bit, which is set when the TSR is empty. No inter-  
rupt logic is tied to this bit, so the user has to poll this  
bit in order to determine if the TSR register is empty.  
The TSR is not mapped in data memory, so it is not  
available to the user.  
16.3 USART Synchronous Master  
Mode  
In Synchronous Master mode, the data is transmitted in  
a half-duplex manner (i.e., transmission and reception  
do not occur at the same time). When transmitting data,  
the reception is inhibited and vice versa. Synchronous  
mode is entered by setting bit SYNC (TXSTA<4>). In  
addition, enable bit SPEN (RCSTA<7>) is set in order  
to configure the RC6/TX/CK and RC7/RX/DT I/O pins  
to CK (clock) and DT (data) lines, respectively. The  
Master mode indicates that the processor transmits the  
master clock on the CK line. The Master mode is  
entered by setting bit CSRC (TXSTA<7>).  
To set up a Synchronous Master Transmission:  
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate  
baud rate (Section 16.1).  
16.3.1  
USART SYNCHRONOUS MASTER  
TRANSMISSION  
2. Enable the synchronous master serial port by  
setting bits SYNC, SPEN, and CSRC.  
3. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit TXIE.  
4. If 9-bit transmission is desired, set bit TX9.  
5. Enable the transmission by setting bit TXEN.  
The USART transmitter block diagram is shown in  
Figure 16-1. The heart of the transmitter is the Transmit  
(serial) Shift Register (TSR). The shift register obtains  
its data from the read/write transmit buffer register  
TXREG. The TXREG register is loaded with data in  
software. The TSR register is not loaded until the last  
bit has been transmitted from the previous load. As  
soon as the last bit is transmitted, the TSR is loaded  
with new data from the TXREG (if available). Once the  
TXREG register transfers the data to the TSR register  
(occurs in one TCYCLE), the TXREG is empty and inter-  
rupt bit TXIF (PIR1<4>) is set. The interrupt can be  
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit TXIE  
6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit  
should be loaded in bit TX9D.  
7. Start transmission by loading data to the TXREG  
register.  
Note: TXIF is not cleared immediately upon load-  
ing data into the transmit buffer TXREG.  
The flag bit becomes valid in the second  
instruction cycle following the load  
instruction.

6. If a single reception is required, set bit SREN.  
For continuous reception, set bit CREN.  
Once Synchronous mode is selected, reception is  
enabled by setting either enable bit SREN  
(RCSTA<5>), or enable bit CREN (RCSTA<4>). Data is  
sampled on the RC7/RX/DT pin on the falling edge of  
the clock. If enable bit SREN is set, only a single word  
is received. If enable bit CREN is set, the reception is  
continuous until CREN is cleared. If both bits are set,  
then CREN takes precedence.  
7. Interrupt flag bit RCIF will be set when reception  
is complete and an interrupt will be generated if  
the enable bit RCIE was set.  
8. Read the RCSTA register to get the ninth bit (if  
enabled) and determine if any error occurred  
during reception.  
9. Read the 8-bit received data by reading the

To set up a Synchronous Master Reception:  
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate  
baud rate (Section 16.1).  
10. If any error occurred, clear the error by clearing  
bit CREN.  
2. Enable the synchronous master serial port by  
setting bits SYNC, SPEN and CSRC.  
11. If using interrupts, ensure that the GIE and PEIE  
bits in the INTCON register (INTCON<7:6>) are  
set.  
3. Ensure bits CREN and SREN are clear.

To set up a Synchronous Slave Transmission:  
16.4 USART Synchronous Slave Mode  
1. Enable the synchronous slave serial port by set-  
ting bits SYNC and SPEN and clearing bit  
CSRC.  
Synchronous Slave mode differs from the Master mode  
in the fact that the shift clock is supplied externally at  
the RC6/TX/CK pin (instead of being supplied internally  
in Master mode). This allows the device to transfer or  
receive data while in SLEEP mode. Slave mode is  
entered by clearing bit CSRC (TXSTA<7>).  
2. Clear bits CREN and SREN.  
3. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit TXIE.  
4. If 9-bit transmission is desired, set bit TX9.  
5. Enable the transmission by setting enable bit  
TXEN.  
16.4.1  
USART SYNCHRONOUS SLAVE  
TRANSMIT  
6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit  
should be loaded in bit TX9D.  
The operation of the Synchronous Master and Slave  
modes are identical, except in the case of the SLEEP  
mode.  
7. Start transmission by loading data to the TXREG  
register.  
If two words are written to the TXREG and then the  
SLEEPinstruction is executed, the following will occur:  
8. If using interrupts, ensure that the GIE and PEIE  
bits in the INTCON register (INTCON<7:6>) are  
set.  
a) The first word will immediately transfer to the  
TSR register and transmit.  
b) The second word will remain in TXREG register.  
c) Flag bit TXIF will not be set.  
d) When the first word has been shifted out of TSR,  
the TXREG register will transfer the second  
word to the TSR and flag bit TXIF will now be  
set.  
e) If enable bit TXIE is set, the interrupt will wake  
the chip from SLEEP. If the global interrupt is  
enabled, the program will branch to the interrupt  
vector.

RECEPTION  
1. Enable the synchronous master serial port by  
setting bits SYNC and SPEN and clearing bit  
CSRC.  
The operation of the Synchronous Master and Slave  
modes is identical, except in the case of the SLEEP  
mode and bit SREN, which is a “don't care” in Slave  
mode.  
2. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit RCIE.  
3. If 9-bit reception is desired, set bit RX9.  
4. To enable reception, set enable bit CREN.  
If receive is enabled by setting bit CREN prior to the  
SLEEPinstruction, then a word may be received during  
SLEEP. On completely receiving the word, the RSR  
register will transfer the data to the RCREG register,  
and if enable bit RCIE bit is set, the interrupt generated  
will wake the chip from SLEEP. If the global interrupt is  
enabled, the program will branch to the interrupt vector.  
5. Flag bit RCIF will be set when reception is com-  
plete. An interrupt will be generated if enable bit  
RCIE was set.  
6. Read the RCSTA register to get the ninth bit (if  
enabled) and determine if any error occurred  
during reception.  
7. Read the 8-bit received data by reading the

CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE  
The Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter module has five  
inputs for the PIC18F2X2 devices and eight for the  
PIC18F4X2 devices. This module has the ADCON0  
and ADCON1 register definitions that are compatible  
with the mid-range A/D module.  
The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 17-1, con-  
trols the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1  
register, shown in Register 17-2, configures the  
functions of the port pins.  
The A/D allows conversion of an analog input signal to  
a corresponding 10-bit digital number.

The analog reference voltage is software selectable to  
either the device’s positive and negative supply voltage  
(VDD and VSS), or the voltage level on the RA3/AN3/  
VREF+ pin and RA2/AN2/VREF- pin.  
Each port pin associated with the A/D converter can be  
configured as an analog input (RA3 can also be a  
voltage reference) or as a digital I/O.  
The ADRESH and ADRESL registers contain the result  
of the A/D conversion. When the A/D conversion is  
complete, the result is loaded into the ADRESH/  
ADRESL registers, the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0<2>) is  
cleared, and A/D interrupt flag bit, ADIF is set. The block  
diagram of the A/D module is shown in Figure 17-1.  
The A/D converter has a unique feature of being able  
to operate while the device is in SLEEP mode. To oper-  
ate in SLEEP, the A/D conversion clock must be  
derived from the A/D’s internal RC oscillator.  
The output of the sample and hold is the input into the  
converter, which generates the result via successive  
approximation.  
A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET  
state. This forces the A/D module to be turned off and  
any conversion is aborted.

Power-on Reset.  
5. Wait for A/D conversion to complete, by either:  
• Polling for the GO/DONE bit to be cleared  
(interrupts disabled)  
OR  
After the A/D module has been configured as desired,  
the selected channel must be acquired before the con-  
version is started. The analog input channels must  
have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as an  
input. To determine acquisition time, see Section 17.1.  
After this acquisition time has elapsed, the A/D conver-  
sion can be started. The following steps should be  
followed for doing an A/D conversion:  
• Waiting for the A/D interrupt  
6. Read A/D Result registers (ADRESH/ADRESL);  
clear bit ADIF if required.  
7. 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.  
1. Configure the A/D module:  
17.1 A/D Acquisition Requirements  
• Configure analog pins, voltage reference and  
digital I/O (ADCON1)  
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 17-2. The  
source impedance (RS) and the internal sampling  
switch (RSS) impedance directly affect the time  
required to charge the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling  
switch (RSS) impedance varies over the device voltage  
(VDD). The source impedance affects the offset voltage  
at the analog input (due to pin leakage current). The  
maximum recommended impedance for analog  
sources is 2.5 kΩ. After the analog input channel is  
selected (changed), this acquisition must be done  
before the conversion can be started.  
• Select A/D input channel (ADCON0)  
• Select A/D conversion clock (ADCON0)  
• Turn on A/D module (ADCON0)  
2. Configure A/D interrupt (if desired):  
• Clear ADIF bit  
• Set ADIE bit  
• Set GIE bit  
• Set PEIE bit  
3. Wait the required acquisition time.  
4. Start conversion:  
• Set GO/DONE bit (ADCON0)  
Note: When the conversion is started, the hold-  
ing capacitor is disconnected from the  
input pin.

To calculate the minimum acquisition time,  
Equation 17-1 may be used. This equation assumes  
that 1/2 LSb error is used (1024 steps for the A/D). The

to meet its specified resolution.

17.2 Selecting the A/D Conversion Clock  
17.3 Configuring Analog Port Pins  
The A/D conversion time per bit is defined as TAD. The  
A/D conversion requires 12 TAD per 10-bit conversion.  
The source of the A/D conversion clock is software  
selectable. The seven possible options for TAD are:  
The ADCON1, TRISA and TRISE registers control the  
operation of the A/D port pins. The port pins that are  
desired as analog inputs, must have their corresponding  
TRIS bits set (input). If the TRIS bit is cleared (output),  
the digital output level (VOH or VOL) will be converted.  
• 2 TOSC  
The A/D operation is independent of the state of the  
CHS2:CHS0 bits and the TRIS bits.  
• 4 TOSC  
• 8 TOSC  
• 16 TOSC  
Note 1: When reading the port register, all pins con-  
figured as analog input channels will read  
as cleared (a low level). Pins configured as  
digital inputs will convert an analog input.  
Analog levels on a digitally configured input  
will not affect the conversion accuracy.  
• 32 TOSC  
• 64 TOSC  
• Internal A/D module RC oscillator (2-6 μs)  
For correct A/D conversions, the A/D conversion clock  
(TAD) must be selected to ensure a minimum TAD time  
of 1.6 μs.  
2: Analog levels on any pin that is defined as  
a digital input (including the AN4:AN0  
pins) may cause the input buffer to con-  
sume current that is out of the device’s  
specification.  
Table 17-1 shows the resultant TAD times derived from  
the device operating frequencies and the A/D clock  
source selected.

(or the last value written to the ADRESH:ADRESL reg-  
isters). After the A/D conversion is aborted, a 2 TAD wait  
is required before the next acquisition is started. After  
this 2 TAD wait, acquisition on the selected channel is  
automatically started. The GO/DONE bit can then be  
set to start the conversion.  
17.4 A/D Conversions  
Figure 17-3 shows the operation of the A/D converter  
after the GO bit has been set. Clearing the GO/DONE  
bit during a conversion will abort the current conver-  
sion. The A/D result register pair will NOT be updated  
with the partially completed A/D conversion sample.  
That is, the ADRESH:ADRESL registers will continue  
to contain the value of the last completed conversion  
Note: The GO/DONE bit should NOT be set in  
the same instruction that turns on the A/D.

The appropriate analog input channel must be selected  
and the minimum acquisition done before the “special  
17.5 Use of the CCP2 Trigger  
An A/D conversion can be started by the “special event  
trigger” of the CCP2 module. This requires that the  
CCP2M3:CCP2M0 bits (CCP2CON<3:0>) be pro-  
grammed as 1011and 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 (or Timer3) counter will be reset to zero.  
Timer1 (or Timer3) is reset to automatically repeat the  
A/D acquisition period with minimal software overhead

If the A/D module is not enabled (ADON is cleared), the  
“special event trigger” will be ignored by the A/D  
module, but will still reset the Timer1 (or Timer3)  
counter.

The Low Voltage Detect circuitry is completely under  
software control. This allows the circuitry to be “turned  
off” by the software, which minimizes the current  
consumption for the device.  
18.0 LOW VOLTAGE DETECT  
In many applications, the ability to determine if the  
device voltage (VDD) is below a specified voltage level  
is a desirable feature. A window of operation for the  
application can be created, where the application soft-  
ware can do “housekeeping tasks” before the device  
voltage exits the valid operating range. This can be  
done using the Low Voltage Detect module.  
Figure 18-1 shows a possible application voltage curve  
(typically for batteries). Over time, the device voltage  
decreases. When the device voltage equals voltage VA,  
the LVD logic generates an interrupt. This occurs at  
time TA. The application software then has the time,  
until the device voltage is no longer in valid operating  
range, to shutdown the system. Voltage point VB is the  
minimum valid operating voltage specification. This  
occurs at time TB. The difference TB - TA is the total  
time for shutdown.  
This module is a software programmable circuitry,  
where a device voltage trip point can be specified.  
When the voltage of the device becomes lower then the  
specified point, an interrupt flag is set. If the interrupt is  
enabled, the program execution will branch to the inter-  
rupt vector address and the software can then respond  
to that interrupt source.

The block diagram for the LVD module is shown in  
Figure 18-2. A comparator uses an internally gener-  
ated reference voltage as the set point. When the  
selected tap output of the device voltage crosses the  
set point (is lower than), the LVDIF bit is set.  
supply voltage is equal to the trip point, the voltage  
tapped off of the resistor array is equal to the 1.2V  
internal reference voltage generated by the voltage  
reference module. The comparator then generates an  
interrupt signal setting the LVDIF bit. This voltage is  
software programmable to any one of 16 values (see  
Figure 18-2). The trip point is selected by  
programming the LVDL3:LVDL0 bits (LVDCON<3:0>).  
Each node in the resistor divider represents a “trip  
point” voltage. The “trip point” voltage is the minimum  
supply voltage level at which the device can operate  
before the LVD module asserts an interrupt. When the

The LVD module has an additional feature that allows  
the user to supply the trip voltage to the module from  
an external source. This mode is enabled when bits  
LVDL3:LVDL0 are set to 1111. In this state, the com-  
parator input is multiplexed from the external input pin,  
LVDIN (Figure 18-3). This gives users flexibility,  
because it allows them to configure the Low Voltage  
Detect interrupt to occur at any voltage in the valid  
operating range.

The following steps are needed to set up the LVD  
module:  
18.2 Operation  
Depending on the power source for the device voltage,  
the voltage normally decreases relatively slowly. This  
means that the LVD module does not need to be con-  
stantly operating. To decrease the current require-  
ments, the LVD circuitry only needs to be enabled for  
short periods, where the voltage is checked. After  
doing the check, the LVD module may be disabled.  
1. Write the value to the LVDL3:LVDL0 bits  
(LVDCON register), which selects the desired  
LVD Trip Point.  
2. Ensure that LVD interrupts are disabled (the  
LVDIE bit is cleared or the GIE bit is cleared).  
3. Enable the LVD module (set the LVDEN bit in  
the LVDCON register).  
Each time that the LVD module is enabled, the circuitry  
requires some time to stabilize. After the circuitry has  
stabilized, all status flags may be cleared. The module  
will then indicate the proper state of the system.  
4. Wait for the LVD module to stabilize (the IRVST  
bit to become set).  
5. Clear the LVD interrupt flag, which may have  
falsely become set until the LVD module has  
stabilized (clear the LVDIF bit).  
6. Enable the LVD interrupt (set the LVDIE and the  
GIE bits).  
Figure 18-4 shows typical waveforms that the LVD  
module may be used to detect.

18.2.1  
REFERENCE VOLTAGE SET POINT  
18.3 Operation During SLEEP  
The Internal Reference Voltage of the LVD module may  
be used by other internal circuitry (the Programmable  
Brown-out Reset). If these circuits are disabled (lower  
current consumption), the reference voltage circuit  
requires a time to become stable before a low voltage  
condition can be reliably detected. This time is invariant  
of system clock speed. This start-up time is specified in  
electrical specification parameter 36. The low voltage  
interrupt flag will not be enabled until a stable reference  
voltage is reached. Refer to the waveform in Figure 18-4.  
When enabled, the LVD circuitry continues to operate  
during SLEEP. If the device voltage crosses the trip  
point, the LVDIF bit will be set and the device will wake-  
up from SLEEP. Device execution will continue from  
the interrupt vector address if interrupts have been  
globally enabled.  
18.4 Effects of a RESET  
A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET  
state. This forces the LVD module to be turned off.  
18.2.2  
CURRENT CONSUMPTION  
When the module is enabled, the LVD comparator and  
voltage divider are enabled and will consume static cur-  
rent. The voltage divider can be tapped from multiple  
places in the resistor array. Total current consumption,  
when enabled, is specified in electrical specification  
parameter #D022B.

19.1 Configuration Bits  
19.0 SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE  
CPU  
The configuration bits can be programmed (read as '0'),  
or left unprogrammed (read as '1'), to select various  
device configurations. These bits are mapped starting  
at program memory location 300000h.  
There are several features intended to maximize sys-  
tem reliability, minimize cost through elimination of  
external components, provide power saving Operating  
modes and offer code protection. These are:  
The user will note that address 300000h is beyond the  
user program memory space. In fact, it belongs to the  
configuration memory space (300000h - 3FFFFFh),  
which can only be accessed using Table Reads and  
Table Writes.  
• OSC Selection  
• RESET  
- Power-on Reset (POR)  
- Power-up Timer (PWRT)  
- Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)  
- Brown-out Reset (BOR)  
• Interrupts  
Programming the configuration registers is done in a  
manner similar to programming the FLASH memory  
(see Section 5.5.1). The only difference is the configu-  
ration registers are written a byte at a time. The  
sequence of events for programming configuration  
registers is:  
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
• SLEEP  
1. Load table pointer with address of configuration  
register being written.  
• Code Protection  
• ID Locations  
2. Write a single byte using the TBLWTinstruction.  
• In-Circuit Serial Programming  
3. Set EEPGD to point to program memory, set the  
CFGS bit to access configuration registers, and  
set WREN to enable byte writes.  
All PIC18FXX2 devices have a Watchdog Timer, which  
is permanently enabled via the configuration bits or  
software controlled. It runs off its own RC oscillator for  
added reliability. There are two timers that offer neces-  
sary 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 on  
power-up only, designed to keep the part in RESET  
while the power supply stabilizes. With these two tim-  
ers on-chip, most applications need no external  
RESET circuitry.  
4. Disable interrupts.  
5. Write 55h to EECON2.  
6. Write AAh to EECON2.  
7. Set the WR bit. This will begin the write cycle.  
8. CPU will stall for duration of write (approximately  
2 ms using internal timer).  
9. Execute a NOP.  
10. Re-enable interrupts.  
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 or through an interrupt. Several oscillator  
options are also made available to allow the part to fit  
the application. The RC oscillator option saves system  
cost, while the LP crystal option saves power. A set of  
configuration bits are used to select various options.

PIC18FXX2  
The WDT time-out period values may be found in the  
Electrical Specifications (Section 22.0) under parame-  
ter D031. Values for the WDT postscaler may be  
assigned using the configuration bits.  
19.2 Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
The Watchdog Timer is a free running on-chip RC oscil-  
lator, which does not require any external components.  
This RC oscillator is separate from the RC oscillator of  
the OSC1/CLKI pin. That means that the WDT will run,  
even if the clock on the OSC1/CLKI and OSC2/CLKO/  
RA6 pins of the device has been stopped, for example,  
by execution of a SLEEPinstruction.  
Note: The CLRWDTand SLEEPinstructions clear  
the WDT and the postscaler, if assigned to  
the WDT and prevent it from timing out and  
generating a device RESET condition.  
During normal operation, a WDT time-out generates a  
device RESET (Watchdog Timer Reset). If the device is  
in SLEEP mode, a WDT time-out causes the device to  
wake-up and continue with normal operation (Watch-  
dog Timer Wake-up). The TO bit in the RCON register  
will be cleared upon a WDT time-out.  
Note: When a CLRWDT instruction is executed  
and the postscaler is assigned to the WDT,  
the postscaler count will be cleared, but the  
postscaler assignment is not changed.  
The Watchdog Timer is enabled/disabled by a device  
configuration bit. If the WDT is enabled, software exe-  
cution may not disable this function. When the WDTEN  
configuration bit is cleared, the SWDTEN bit enables/  
disables the operation of the WDT.  
19.2.1  
CONTROL REGISTER  
Register 19-14 shows the WDTCON register. This is a  
readable and writable register, which contains a control  
bit that allows software to override the WDT enable  
configuration bit, only when the configuration bit has  
disabled the WDT.

WDT POSTSCALER  
The WDT has a postscaler that can extend the WDT  
Reset period. The postscaler is selected at the time of  
the device programming, by the value written to the  
CONFIG2H configuration register.

External MCLR Reset will cause a device RESET. All  
other events are considered a continuation of program  
execution and will cause a “wake-up”. The TO and PD  
bits in the RCON register can be used to determine the  
cause of the device RESET. The PD bit, which is set on  
power-up, is cleared when SLEEP is invoked. The TO  
bit is cleared, if a WDT time-out occurred (and caused  
wake-up).  
19.3 Power-down Mode (SLEEP)  
Power-down mode is entered by executing a SLEEP  
instruction.  
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared, but  
keeps running, the PD bit (RCON<3>) is cleared, the  
TO (RCON<4>) bit is set, and the oscillator driver is  
turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had  
before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving  
high, low or hi-impedance).  
When the SLEEPinstruction is being executed, the next  
instruction (PC + 2) is pre-fetched. 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 SLEEPinstruction. If the GIE bit is  
set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after  
the SLEEP instruction and then branches to the inter-  
rupt address. In cases where the execution of the  
instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the user  
should have a NOPafter the SLEEPinstruction.  
For lowest current consumption in this mode, place all  
I/O pins at either VDD or VSS, ensure no external cir-  
cuitry is drawing current from the I/O pin, power-down  
the A/D and disable external clocks. Pull all I/O pins  
that are hi-impedance inputs, high or low externally, to  
avoid switching currents caused by floating inputs. The  
T0CKI input should also be at VDD or VSS for lowest  
current consumption. The contribution from on-chip  
pull-ups on PORTB should be considered.  
The MCLR pin must be at a logic high level (VIHMC).  
19.3.2  
WAKE-UP USING INTERRUPTS  
19.3.1  
WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP  
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:  
The device can wake-up from SLEEP through one of  
the following events:  
1. External RESET input on MCLR pin.  
• If an interrupt condition (interrupt flag bit and inter-  
rupt enable bits are set) occurs before the execu-  
tion of a SLEEPinstruction, the SLEEPinstruction  
will complete as a NOP. Therefore, the WDT and  
WDT postscaler will not be cleared, the TO bit will  
not be set and PD bits will not be cleared.  
2. Watchdog Timer Wake-up (if WDT was  
enabled).  
3. Interrupt from INT pin, RB port change or a  
Peripheral Interrupt.  
The following peripheral interrupts can wake the device  
from SLEEP:  
• If the interrupt condition occurs during or after  
the execution of a SLEEPinstruction, the device  
will immediately wake-up from SLEEP. The  
SLEEPinstruction will be completely executed  
before the wake-up. Therefore, the WDT and  
WDT postscaler will be cleared, the TO bit will be  
set and the PD bit will be cleared.  
1. PSP read or write.  
2. TMR1 interrupt. Timer1 must be operating as  
an asynchronous counter.  
3. TMR3 interrupt. Timer3 must be operating as  
an asynchronous counter.  
4. CCP Capture mode interrupt.  
Even if the flag bits were checked before executing a  
SLEEP instruction, it may be possible for flag bits to  
become set before the SLEEPinstruction completes. To  
determine whether a SLEEPinstruction executed, test  
the PD bit. If the PD bit is set, the SLEEP instruction  
was executed as a NOP.  
5. Special event trigger (Timer1 in Asynchronous  
mode using an external clock).  
6. MSSP (START/STOP) bit detect interrupt.  
7. MSSP transmit or receive in Slave mode  
(SPI/I2C).  
8. USART RX or TX (Synchronous Slave mode).  
9. A/D conversion (when A/D clock source is RC).  
10. EEPROM write operation complete.  
11. LVD interrupt.  
To ensure that the WDT is cleared, a CLRWDTinstruction  
should be executed before a SLEEPinstruction.  
Other peripherals cannot generate interrupts, since  
during SLEEP, no on-chip clocks are present.

Each of the five blocks has three code protection bits  
associated with them. They are:  
19.4 Program Verification and  
Code Protection  
• Code Protect bit (CPn)  
The overall structure of the code protection on the  
PIC18 FLASH devices differs significantly from other  
PICmicro devices.  
• Write Protect bit (WRTn)  
• External Block Table Read bit (EBTRn)  
Figure 19-3 shows the program memory organization  
for 16- and 32-Kbyte devices, and the specific code  
protection bit associated with each block. The actual  
locations of the bits are summarized in Table 19-3.  
The user program memory is divided into five blocks.  
One of these is a boot block of 512 bytes. The remain-  
der of the memory is divided into four blocks on binary  
boundaries.

outside of that block is not allowed to read, and will  
result in reading ‘0’s. Figures 19-4 through 19-6  
illustrate Table Write and Table Read protection.  
19.4.1  
PROGRAM MEMORY  
CODE PROTECTION  
The user memory may be read to or written from any  
location using the Table Read and Table Write instruc-  
tions. The device ID may be read with Table Reads.  
The configuration registers may be read and written  
with the Table Read and Table Write instructions.  
Note: Code protection bits may only be written to  
a ‘0’ from a ‘1’ state. It is not possible to  
write a ‘1’ to a bit in the ‘0’ state. Code pro-  
tection bits are only set to ‘1’ by a full chip  
erase or block erase function. The full chip  
erase and block erase functions can only  
be initiated via ICSP or an external  
programmer.  
In User mode, the CPn bits have no direct effect. CPn  
bits inhibit external reads and writes. A block of user  
memory may be protected from Table Writes if the  
WRTn configuration bit is ‘0’. The EBTRn bits control  
Table Reads. For a block of user memory with the  
EBTRn bit set to ‘0’, a Table Read instruction that  
executes from within that block is allowed to read. A  
Table Read instruction that executes from a location

To use the In-Circuit Debugger function of the micro-  
controller, the design must implement In-Circuit Serial  
Programming connections to MCLR/VPP, VDD, GND,  
RB7 and RB6. This will interface to the In-Circuit  
Debugger module available from Microchip or one of  
the third party development tool companies.  
19.4.2  
DATA EEPROM  
CODE PROTECTION  
The entire Data EEPROM is protected from external  
reads and writes by two bits: CPD and WRTD. CPD  
inhibits external reads and writes of Data EEPROM.  
WRTD inhibits external writes to Data EEPROM. The  
CPU can continue to read and write Data EEPROM  
regardless of the protection bit settings.  
19.8 Low Voltage ICSP Programming  
The LVP bit configuration register CONFIG4L enables  
low voltage ICSP programming. This mode allows the  
microcontroller to be programmed via ICSP using a  
VDD source in the operating voltage range. This only  
means that VPP does not have to be brought to VIHH,  
but can instead be left at the normal operating voltage.  
In this mode, the RB5/PGM pin is dedicated to the pro-  
gramming function and ceases to be a general purpose  
I/O pin. During programming, VDD is applied to the  
MCLR/VPP pin. To enter Programming mode, VDD must  
be applied to the RB5/PGM, provided the LVP bit is set.  
The LVP bit defaults to a (‘1’) from the factory.  
19.4.3  
CONFIGURATION REGISTER  
PROTECTION  
The configuration registers can be write protected. The  
WRTC bit controls protection of the configuration regis-  
ters. In User mode, the WRTC bit is readable only. WRTC  
can only be written via ICSP or an external programmer.  
19.5 ID Locations  
Eight memory locations (200000h - 200007h) are des-  
ignated as ID locations, where the user can store  
checksum or other code identification numbers. These  
locations are accessible during normal execution  
through the TBLRD and TBLWTinstructions, or during  
program/verify. The ID locations can be read when the  
device is code protected.  
Note 1: The High Voltage Programming mode is  
always available, regardless of the state  
of the LVP bit, by applying VIHH to the  
MCLR pin.  
2: While in low voltage ICSP mode, the RB5  
pin can no longer be used as a general  
purpose I/O pin, and should be held low  
during normal operation to protect  
against inadvertent ICSP mode entry.  
The sequence for programming the ID locations is sim-  
ilar to programming the FLASH memory (see  
Section 5.5.1).  
19.6  
In-Circuit Serial Programming  
3: When using low voltage ICSP program-  
ming (LVP), the pull-up on RB5 becomes  
disabled. If TRISB bit 5 is cleared,  
thereby setting RB5 as an output, LATB  
bit 5 must also be cleared for proper  
operation.  
PIC18FXXX microcontrollers can be serially pro-  
grammed while in the end application circuit. This is  
simply done with two lines for clock and data, and three  
other lines for power, ground and the programming  
voltage. This allows customers to manufacture boards  
with unprogrammed devices, and then program the  
microcontroller just before shipping the product. This  
also allows the most recent firmware or a custom  
firmware to be programmed.  
If Low Voltage Programming mode is not used, the LVP  
bit can be programmed to a '0' and RB5/PGM becomes  
a digital I/O pin. However, the LVP bit may only be pro-  
grammed when programming is entered with VIHH on  
MCLR/VPP.  
19.7 In-Circuit Debugger  
It should be noted that once the LVP bit is programmed  
to 0, only the High Voltage Programming mode is avail-  
able and only High Voltage Programming mode can be  
used to program the device.  
When the DEBUG bit in configuration register  
CONFIG4L is programmed to a '0', the In-Circuit  
Debugger functionality is enabled. This function allows  
simple debugging functions when used with MPLAB®  
IDE. When the microcontroller has this feature  
enabled, some of the resources are not available for  
general use. Table 19-4 shows which features are  
consumed by the background debugger.  
When using low voltage ICSP, the part must be sup-  
plied 4.5V to 5.5V, if a bulk erase will be executed. This  
includes reprogramming of the code protect bits from  
an on-state to off-state. For all other cases of low volt-  
age ICSP, the part may be programmed at the normal  
operating voltage. This means unique user IDs, or user  
code can be reprogrammed or added.

The literal instructions may use some of the following  
operands:  
20.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY  
The PIC18FXXX instruction set adds many enhance-  
ments to the previous PICmicro instruction sets, while  
maintaining an easy migration from these PICmicro  
instruction sets.  
• A literal value to be loaded into a file register  
(specified by ‘k’)  
• The desired FSR register to load the literal value  
into (specified by ‘f’)  
Most instructions are a single program memory word  
(16-bits), but there are three instructions that require  
two program memory locations.  
• No operand required  
(specified by ‘—’)  
The control instructions may use some of the following  
operands:  
Each single word instruction is a 16-bit word divided  
into an OPCODE, which specifies the instruction type  
and one or more operands, which further specify the  
operation of the instruction.  
• A program memory address (specified by ‘n’)  
• The mode of the Call or Return instructions  
(specified by ‘s’)  
The instruction set is highly orthogonal and is grouped  
into four basic categories:  
• The mode of the Table Read and Table Write  
instructions (specified by ‘m’)  
Byte-oriented operations  
Bit-oriented operations  
Literal operations  
• No operand required  
(specified by ‘—’)  
All instructions are a single word, except for three dou-  
ble-word instructions. These three instructions were  
made double-word instructions so that all the required  
information is available in these 32 bits. In the second  
word, the 4-MSbs are 1’s. If this second word is exe-  
cuted as an instruction (by itself), it will execute as a  
NOP.  
Control operations  
The PIC18FXXX instruction set summary in Table 20-2  
lists byte-oriented, bit-oriented, literal and control  
operations. Table 20-1 shows the opcode field  
descriptions.  
Most byte-oriented instructions have three operands:  
All single word instructions are executed in a single  
instruction cycle, unless a conditional test is true or the  
program counter is changed as a result of the instruc-  
tion. In these cases, the execution takes two instruction  
cycles with the additional instruction cycle(s) executed  
as a NOP.  
1. The file register (specified by ‘f’)  
2. The destination of the result  
(specified by ‘d’)  
3. The accessed memory  
(specified by ‘a’)  
The file register designator 'f' specifies which file  
register is to be used by the instruction.  
The double-word instructions execute in two instruction  
cycles.  
The destination designator ‘d’ specifies where the  
result of the operation is to be placed. If 'd' is zero, the  
result is placed in the WREG register. If 'd' is one, the  
result is placed in the file register specified in the  
instruction.  
One instruction cycle consists of four oscillator periods.  
Thus, for an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, the normal  
instruction execution time is 1 μs. If a conditional test is  
true or the program counter is changed as a result of an  
instruction, the instruction execution time is 2 μs.  
Two-word branch instructions (if true) would take 3 μs.  
All bit-oriented instructions have three operands:  
1. The file register (specified by ‘f’)  
Figure 20-1 shows the general formats that the  
instructions can have.  
2. The bit in the file register  
(specified by ‘b’)  
All examples use the format ‘nnh’ to represent a  
3. The accessed memory  
(specified by ‘a’)  
hexadecimal number, where ‘h’ signifies  
hexadecimal digit.  
a
The bit field designator 'b' selects the number of the bit  
affected by the operation, while the file register desig-  
nator 'f' represents the number of the file in which the  
bit is located.  
The Instruction Set Summary, shown in Table 20-2,  
lists the instructions recognized by the Microchip  
Assembler (MPASMTM).  
Section 20.1 provides a description of each instruction.

Note 1: When a PORT register is modified as a function of itself (e.g., MOVF PORTB, 1, 0), 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'.  
2: If this instruction is executed on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be cleared if assigned.  
3: If Program Counter (PC) is modified or a conditional test is true, the instruction requires two cycles. The second cycle is  
executed as a NOP.  
4: Some instructions are 2-word instructions. The second word of these instructions will be executed as a NOP, unless the  
first word of the instruction retrieves the information embedded in these 16-bits. This ensures that all program memory  
locations have a valid instruction.  
5: If the Table Write starts the write cycle to internal memory, the write will continue until terminated.

The contents of W are AND’ed with  
register 'f'. If 'd' is 0, the result is  
stored in W. If 'd' is 1, the result is  
stored back in register 'f' (default). If  
‘a’ is 0, the Access Bank will be  
selected. If ‘a’ is 1, the BSR will not  
be overridden (default).  
The 2’s complement number ’2n’ is  
added to the PC. Since the PC will  
have incremented to fetch the next  
instruction, the new address will be  
PC+2+2n. This instruction is then  
a two-cycle instruction.

The 2’s complement number ’2n’ is  
added to the PC. Since the PC will  
have incremented to fetch the next

Description:  
Subtract register 'f' and carry flag  
(borrow) from W (2’s complement  
method). If 'd' is 0, the result is  
stored in W. If 'd' is 1, the result is  
stored in register 'f' (default). If ’a’ is  
0, the Access Bank will be selected,  
overriding the BSR value. If ’a’ is 1,  
then the bank will be selected as  
per the BSR value (default).  
Description:  
The power-down status bit (PD) is  
cleared. The time-out status bit  
(TO) is set. Watchdog Timer and  
its postscaler are cleared.  
The processor is put into SLEEP  
mode with the oscillator stopped.

link relocatable objects from pre-compiled libraries,  
using directives from a linker script.  
The MPLAB ICE universal in-circuit emulator is intended  
to provide the product development engineer with a  
complete microcontroller design tool set for PICmicro  
microcontrollers (MCUs). Software control of the  
MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator is provided by the  
MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE),  
which allows editing, building, downloading and source  
debugging from a single environment.  
The MPLIB object librarian is a librarian for pre-  
compiled code to be used with the MPLINK object  
linker. When a routine from a library is called from  
another source file, only the modules that contain that  
routine will be linked in with the application. This allows  
large libraries to be used efficiently in many different  
applications. The MPLIB object librarian manages the  
creation and modification of library files.  
The MPLAB ICE 2000 is a full-featured emulator sys-  
tem with enhanced trace, trigger and data monitoring  
features. Interchangeable processor modules allow the  
system to be easily reconfigured for emulation of differ-  
ent processors. The universal architecture of the  
MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator allows expansion to  
support new PICmicro microcontrollers.  
The MPLINK object linker features include:  
• Integration with MPASM assembler and MPLAB  
C17 and MPLAB C18 C compilers.  
The MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator system has been  
designed as a real-time emulation system, with  
advanced features that are generally found on more  
expensive development tools. The PC platform and  
Microsoft® Windows environment were chosen to best  
make these features available to you, the end user.  
• Allows all memory areas to be defined as sections  
to provide link-time flexibility.  
The MPLIB object librarian features include:  
• Easier linking because single libraries can be  
included instead of many smaller files.  
• Helps keep code maintainable by grouping  
related modules together.  
21.7 ICEPIC In-Circuit Emulator  
• Allows libraries to be created and modules to be  
added, listed, replaced, deleted or extracted.  
The ICEPIC low cost, in-circuit emulator is a solution  
for the Microchip Technology PIC16C5X, PIC16C6X,  
PIC16C7X and PIC16CXXX families of 8-bit One-  
Time-Programmable (OTP) microcontrollers. The mod-  
ular system can support different subsets of PIC16C5X  
or PIC16CXXX products through the use of inter-  
changeable personality modules, or daughter boards.  
The emulator is capable of emulating without target  
application circuitry being present.  
21.5 MPLAB SIM Software Simulator  
The MPLAB SIM software simulator allows code devel-  
opment in a PC-hosted environment by simulating the  
PICmicro series microcontrollers on an instruction  
level. On any given instruction, the data areas can be  
examined or modified and stimuli can be applied from  
a file, or user-defined key press, to any of the pins. The  
execution can be performed in single step, execute  
until break, or trace mode.  
The MPLAB SIM simulator fully supports symbolic debug-  
ging using the MPLAB C17 and the MPLAB C18 C com-  
pilers and the MPASM assembler. The software simulator  
offers the flexibility to develop and debug code outside of  
the laboratory environment, making it an excellent multi-  
project software development tool.

Voltage on any pin with respect to VSS (except VDD, MCLR, and RA4) ......................................... -0.3V to (VDD + 0.3V)  
Voltage on VDD with respect to VSS ......................................................................................................... -0.3V to +7.5V  
Voltage on MCLR with respect to VSS (Note 2) ......................................................................................... 0V to +13.25V  
Voltage on RA4 with respect to Vss............................................................................................................... 0V to +8.5V  
Total power dissipation (Note 1) ...............................................................................................................................1.0W  
Maximum current out of VSS pin ...........................................................................................................................300 mA  
Maximum current into VDD pin ..............................................................................................................................250 mA  
Input clamp current, IIK (VI < 0 or VI > VDD)...................................................................................................................... 20 mA  
Output clamp current, IOK (VO < 0 or VO > VDD) .............................................................................................................. 20 mA  
Maximum output current sunk by any I/O pin..........................................................................................................25 mA  
Maximum output current sourced by any I/O pin ....................................................................................................25 mA  
Maximum current sunk by PORTA, PORTB, and PORTE (Note 3) (combined)...................................................200 mA  
Maximum current sourced by PORTA, PORTB, and PORTE (Note 3) (combined)..............................................200 mA  
Maximum current sunk by PORTC and PORTD (Note 3) (combined)..................................................................200 mA  
Maximum current sourced by PORTC and PORTD (Note 3) (combined).............................................................200 mA  
Note 1: Power dissipation is calculated as follows:  
Pdis = VDD x {IDD - IOH} + {(VDD-VOH) x IOH} + (VOl x IOL)  
2: Voltage spikes below VSS at the MCLR/VPP pin, inducing currents greater than 80 mA, may cause latchup.  
Thus, a series resistor of 50-100Ω should be used when applying a “low” level to the MCLR/VPP pin, rather  
than pulling this pin directly to VSS.  
3: PORTD and PORTE not available on the PIC18F2X2 devices.  
† 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.

MCLR = VDD; WDT enabled/disabled as specified.  
3: 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 hi-impedance state and tied to VDD or VSS, and all  
features that add delta current disabled (such as WDT, Timer1 Oscillator, BOR,...).  
4: For RC osc configuration, current through REXT is not included. The current through the resistor can be  
estimated by the formula Ir = VDD/2REXT (mA) with REXT in kOhm.  
5: The LVD and BOR modules share a large portion of circuitry. The ΔIBOR and ΔILVD currents are not additive.  
Once one of these modules is enabled, the other may also be enabled without further penalty.

Legend: Shading of rows is to assist in readability of the table.  
Note 1: This is the limit to which VDD can be lowered in SLEEP mode, or during a device RESET, without losing RAM data.  
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.  
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 enabled/disabled as specified.  
3: 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 hi-impedance state and tied to VDD or VSS, and all  
features that add delta current disabled (such as WDT, Timer1 Oscillator, BOR,...).  
4: For RC osc configuration, current through REXT is not included. The current through the resistor can be  
estimated by the formula Ir = VDD/2REXT (mA) with REXT in kOhm.  
5: The LVD and BOR modules share a large portion of circuitry. The ΔIBOR and ΔILVD currents are not additive.  
Once one of these modules is enabled, the other may also be enabled without further penalty.

Note 1: Instruction cycle period (TCY) equals four times the input oscillator time-base period for all configurations  
except PLL. All specified values are based on characterization data for that particular oscillator type under  
standard operating conditions with the device executing code. Exceeding these specified limits may result in  
an unstable oscillator operation and/or higher than expected current consumption. All devices are tested to  
operate at “min.” values with an external clock applied to the OSC1/CLKI pin. When an external clock input  
is used, the “max.” cycle time limit is “DC” (no clock) for all devices.

2: A Fast mode I C bus device can be used in a Standard mode I C bus system, but the requirement TSU:DAT 250 ns  
must then be met. This will automatically be the case if the device does not stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If  
such a device does stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line.

APPENDIX C: CONVERSION  
APPENDIX D: MIGRATION FROM  
BASELINE TO  
CONSIDERATIONS  
ENHANCED DEVICES  
This appendix discusses the considerations for con-  
verting from previous versions of a device to the ones  
listed in this data sheet. Typically, these changes are  
due to the differences in the process technology used.  
An example of this type of conversion is from a  
PIC16C74A to a PIC16C74B.  
This section discusses how to migrate from a Baseline  
device (i.e., PIC16C5X) to an Enhanced MCU device  
(i.e., PIC18FXXX).  
The following are the list of modifications over the  
PIC16C5X microcontroller family:

APPENDIX E: MIGRATION FROM  
MID-RANGE TO  
APPENDIX F: MIGRATION FROM  
HIGH-END TO  
ENHANCED DEVICES  
ENHANCED DEVICES  
A detailed discussion of the differences between the  
mid-range MCU devices (i.e., PIC16CXXX) and the  
enhanced devices (i.e., PIC18FXXX) is provided in  
AN716, “Migrating Designs from PIC16C74A/74B to  
PIC18F442”. The changes discussed, while device  
specific, are generally applicable to all mid-range to  
enhanced device migrations.  
A detailed discussion of the migration pathway and dif-  
ferences between the high-end MCU devices (i.e.,  
PIC17CXXX) and the enhanced devices (i.e.,  
PIC18FXXX) is provided in AN726, “PIC17CXXX to  
PIC18FXXX Migration”. This Application Note is  
available as Literature Number DS00726.
