The program memory contains 2K words which translate to 2048 instructions, since each 14-bit program
memory word is the same width as each device instruction. The data memory (RAM) contains 128 bytes.
There are also 22 I/O pins that are user-configurable on
a pin-to-pin basis. Some pins are multiplex ed with other
device functions. These functions include:
• External interrupt
• Change on PORTB interrupt
• Timer0 clock input
• Timer1 clock/oscillator
• Capture/Compare/PWM
• A/D converter

2.0MEMORY ORGANIZATION
There are two memory blocks in PIC16C72 Series
devices. These are the program memory and the data
memory. Each block has its own bus, so that access to
both blocks can occur during the same oscillator cycle.
The data memory can further be broken down into the
general purpose RAM and the Special Function
Registers (SFRs). The operation of the SFRs that
control the “core” are described here. The SFRs used
to control the peripheral modules are described in the
section discussing each individual peripheral module.
Additional information on device memory may be found
in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range Reference Manual,
DS33023.
2.1Pr
PIC16C72 Series devices have a 13-bit program
counter capable of addressing a 2K x 14 program
memory space. The address range for this program
memory is 0000h - 07FFh. Accessing a location above
the physically implemented address will cause a wraparound.
The reset vector is at 0000h and the interrupt vector is
at 0004h.

2.2Data Memory Organization
The data memory is partitioned into multiple banks
which contain the General Purpose Registers and the
Special Function Registers. Bits RP1 and RP0 are the
bank select bits.
Maintain this bit clear to ensure upward compatibility with future products.
Each bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes). The lower
locations of each bank are reserved for the Special
Function Registers. Abo v e the Special Function Registers are General Purpose Registers, implemented as
static RAM.
All implemented banks contain special function registers. Some “high use” special function registers from
one bank may be mirrored in another bank for code
reduction and quicker access (ex; the STATUS register
is in Bank 0 and Bank 1).
2.2.1GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE
The register file can be accessed either directly or indi-
rectly through the File Select Register FSR
(Section 2.5).
2.2.2SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS
The Special Function Registers are registers used by
the CPU and Peripheral Modules for controlling the
desired operation of the device. These registers are
implemented as static RAM.
The special function registers can be classified into two
sets (core and peripheral). Those registers associated
with the “core” functions are described in this section,
and those related to the operation of the peripheral features are described in the section of that peripheral feature.

2.2.2.1STATUS REGISTER
The STATUS register, shown in Figure 2-3, contains
the arithmetic status of the ALU, the RESET status and
the bank select bits for data memory.
The STATUS register can be the destination for any
instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS
register is the destination for an instruction that affects
the Z, DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is
disabled. These bits are set or cleared according to the
device logic. Furthermore, the T
writable. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the
STATUS register as destination may be different than
intended.
For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper-three
bits and set the Z bit. This lea v es the STATUS register
as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
O and PD bits are not
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the
STATUS register because these instructions do not
affect the Z, C or DC bits from the STATUS register . For
other instructions, not affecting any status bits, see the
"Instruction Set Summary."
Note 1: These devices do not use bits IRP and
RP1 (STATUS<7:6>). Maintain these bits
clear to ensure upward compatibility with
future products.
Note 2: The C and DC bits operate as a borro
and digit borrow bit, respectively, in subtraction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF
instructions for examples.

2.3PCL and PCLATH
The program counter (PC) specifies the address of the
instruction to fetch for execution. The PC is 13 bits
wide. The low byte is called the PCL register. This register is readable and writable. The high byte is called
the PCH register. This register contains the PC<12:8>
bits and is not directly readable or writable. All updates
to the PCH register go through the PCLATH register.
Figure 2-9 shows the four situations for the loading of
the PC. Example 1 shows how the PC is loaded on a
write to PCL (PCLATH<4:0> → PCH). Example 2
shows how the PC is loaded during a GOTO instruction
(PCLATH<4:3> → PCH). Example 3 shows ho w the PC
is loaded during a CALL instruction (PCLATH<4:3> →
PCH), with the PC loaded (PUSHed) onto the Top of
Stack. Finally, example 4 shows how the PC is loaded
during one of the return instructions where the PC is
loaded (POPed) from the Top of Stack.

2.3.1STACK
The stack allows a combination of up to 8 program calls
and interrupts to occur. The stack contains the return
address from this branch in program execution.
Midrange devices have an 8 level deep x 13-bit wide
hardware stack. The stack space is not part of either
program or data space and the stack pointer is not
readable or writable. The PC is PUSHed onto the stack
when a CALL instruction is executed or an interrupt
causes a branch. The stack is POPed in the event of a
RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction execution.
PCLATH is not modified when the stack is PUSHed or
POPed.
After the stack has been PUSHed eight times, the ninth
push overwrites the value that was stored from the first
push. The tenth push overwrites the second push (and
so on). An example of the overwriting of the stack is
shown in Figure 2-10.

2.4Program Memory Paging
The CALL and GOTO instructions provide 11 bits of
address to allow branching within any 2K program
memory page. When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction
the upper 2 bits of the address are provided by
PCLATH<4:3>. When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction,
the user must ensure that the page select bits are programmed so that the desired program memory page is
addressed. If a return from a CALL instruction (or interrupt) is executed, the entire 13-bit PC is pushed onto
the stack. Therefore, manipulation of the
PCLATH<4:3> bits are not required for the return
instructions (which POPs the address from the stack).
Note:PIC16C72 Series devices ignore paging
bit PCLATH<4>. The use of PCLATH<4>
as a general purpose read/write bit is not
recommended since this may affect
upward compatibility with future products.

2.5Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR
Registers
The INDF register is not a physical register. Addressing INDF actually addresses the register whose
address is contained in the FSR register (FSR is a
pointer
). This is indirect addressing.
EXAMPLE 2-1: INDIRECT ADDRESSING
• Register file 05 contains the value 10h
• Register file 06 contains the value 0Ah
• Load the value 05 into the FSR register
• A read of the INDF register will return the value of

(FSR = 06)
• A read of the INDR register now will return the

Reading INDF itself indirectly (FSR = 0) will produce
00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly results in a
no-operation (although STATUS bits may be affected).

3.0I/O PORTS
Some pins for these I/O ports are multiplexed with an
alternate function for the peripheral features on the
device. In general, when a peripheral is enabled, that
pin may not be used as a general purpose I/O pin.
Additional information on I/O ports may be found in the
PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Reference Manual,
DS33023.
3.1PORTA and the TRISA Register
PORTA is a 6-bit wide bi-directional por t. The corresponding 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.
Reading the PORTA register reads the status of the
pins whereas writing to it will write to the port latch. All
write operations are read-modify-write operations.
Therefore a write to a port implies that the port pins are
read, this value is modified, and then written to the port
data latch.
Pin RA4 is multiplexed with the Timer0 module clock
input to become the RA4/T0CKI pin. The RA4/T0CKI
pin is a Schmitt Trigger input and an open drain output.
All other RA port pins have TTL input levels and full
CMOS output drivers.
Other PORTA pins are multiplexed with analog inputs
and analog V
selected by clearing/setting the control bits in the
ADCON1 register (A/D Control Register1).
Note:On a Power-on Reset, these pins are con-
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.

3.2PORTB and the TRISB Register
PORTB is an 8-bit wide bi-directional port. The corresponding 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.

Each of the PORTB pins has a weak internal pull-up. A
single control bit can turn on all the pull-ups. This is performed by clearing bit RBPU
(OPTION<7>). The weak
pull-up is automatically turned off when the port pin is
configured as an output. The pull-ups are disab led on a
Power-on Reset.

Four of PORTB’s 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>).
This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The
user, in the interrupt service routine, can clear the interrupt in the following manner:
a) Any read or write of PORTB. 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.
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.

3.3PORTC and the TRISC Register
PORTC is an 8-bit wide bi-directional port. The corresponding 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.
PORTC is multiplex ed with se ver al peripheral functions
(T ab le 3-5). PORTC pins have Schmitt Trigger input
buffers.
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 output, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to
make a pin an input. Since the TRIS bit override is in
effect while the peripheral is enabled, read-modifywrite instructions (BSF, BCF, XORWF) with TRISC as
destination should be avoided. The user should refer to
the corresponding peripheral section for the correct
TRIS bit settings.

4.0TIMER0 MODULE
The Timer0 module timer/counter has the following features:
• 8-bit timer/counter
• Readable and writable
• Internal or external clock select
• Edge select for external clock
• 8-bit software programmable prescaler
• Interrupt on overflow from FFh to 00h
Figure 4-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer0
module.
Additional information on timer modules is available in
the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Reference Manual,
DS33023.
4.1Timer0 Operation
Timer0 can operate as a timer or as a counter.
Timer mode is selected by clearing bit T0CS
(OPTION_REG<5>). In timer mode, the Timer0 module will increment every instruction cycle (without prescaler). If the TMR0 register is wr itten, the increment is
inhibited for the following two instruction cycles. The
user can work around this by writing an adjusted value
to the TMR0 register.
Counter mode is selected by setting bit T0CS
(OPTION_REG<5>). In counter mode, Timer0 will
increment either on every rising or falling edge of pin
RA4/T0CKI. The incrementing edge is determined by
the Timer0 Source Edge Select bit T0SE
(OPTION_REG<4>). Clearing bit T0SE selects the rising edge. Restrictions on the external clock input are
discussed in 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 (T

OSC). Also, there is a delay in the actual
Additional information on external clock requirements
is available in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Reference Manual, DS33023.
4.2Prescaler
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer, respectively (Figure 4-2). For simplicity, this
counter is being referred to as “prescaler” throughout
this data sheet. Note that there is only one prescaler
available which is mutually e xclusiv ely shared betw een
the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. Thus, a
prescaler assignment for the Timer0 module means
that there is no prescaler for the Watchdog Timer, and
vice-versa.
The prescaler is not readable or writable.
The PSA and PS2:PS0 bits (OPTION_REG<3:0>)
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.
Setting bit PSA will assign the prescaler to the Watchdog Timer (WDT). When the prescaler is assigned to
the WDT, prescale values of 1:1, 1:2, ..., 1:128 are
selectable.
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions
writing to the TMR0 register (e.g. CLRF 1, MOVWF 1,
BSF 1,x....etc.) will clear the prescaler. When assigned
to WDT , a CLRWDT instruction will clear the prescaler
along with the WDT.
Note:Writing to TMR0 when the prescaler is
assigned to Timer0 will clear the prescaler
count, but will not change the prescaler
assignment.
4.2.1SWITCHING PRESCALER ASSIGNMENT
The prescaler assignment is fully under software con-
trol, i.e., it can be changed “on the fly” during program
execution.
Note:To avoid an unintended device RESET, a
specific instruction sequence (shown in the
PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Reference
Manual, DS3023) must be executed when
changing the prescaler assignment from
4.3Timer0 Interrupt
The TMR0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0 register overflows from FFh to 00h. This overflow sets bit
T0IF (INTCON<2>). The interr upt can be masked by
clearing bit T0IE (INTCON<5>). Bit T0IF must be
cleared in software 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.

followed even if the WDT is disabled.

The Timer1 module timer/counter has the following features:
• 16-bit timer/counter
(Two 8-bit registers; TMR1H and TMR1L)
• Readable and writable (Both registers)
• Internal or external clock select
• Interrupt on overflow from FFFFh to 0000h
• Reset from CCP module trigger
Timer1 has a control register, shown in Figure 5-1.
Timer1 can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing
control bit TMR1ON (T1CON<0>).
Figure 5-2 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer1
module.
Additional information on timer modules is available in
the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Reference Manual,
DS33023.
5.1Timer1 Operation
Timer1 can operate in one of these modes:
• As a timer
• As a synchronous counter
• As an asynchronous counter
The operating mode is determined by the clock select
bit, TMR1CS (T1CON<1>).
In timer mode, Timer1 increments every instruction
cycle. In counter mode, it increments on every rising
edge of the external clock input.
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.
Timer1 also has an internal “reset input”. This reset can
be generated by the CCP module (Section 7.0).

5.2Timer1 Oscillator
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 oscillator 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 5-1 shows the capacitor
selection for the Timer1 oscillator.
The Timer1 oscillator is identical to the LP oscillator.

proper oscillator start-up.

5.3Timer1 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>).
5.4Resetting Timer1 using a CCP Trigger
Output
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).
Timer1 must be configured for either timer or synchronized counter mode to take advantage of this f eature. If
Timer1 is running in asynchronous counter mode, this
reset operation may not work.
In the event that a write to Timer1 coincides with a 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
Timer1.
