PIC16C7X
1.0GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PIC16C7X is a family of
mance, CMOS, fully-static, 8-bit microcontrollers with
integrated analog-to-digital (A/D) converters, in the
PIC16CXX mid-range family.
All PIC16/17 microcontrollers employ an advanced
RISC architecture. The PIC16CXX microcontroller f amily has enhanced core features, eight-level deep stack,
and multiple internal and external interrupt sources.
The separate instruction and data buses of the Harvard
architecture allow a 14-bit wide instruction word with
the separate 8-bit wide data. The two stage instruction
pipeline allows all instructions to execute in a single
cycle, except for program branches which require two
cycles. A total of 35 instructions (reduced instruction
set) are available . Additionally, a large register set gives
some of the architectural innovations used to achie v e a
very high performance.
PIC16CXX microcontrollers typically achieve a 2:1
code compression and a 4:1 speed improvement over
other 8-bit microcontrollers in their class.
The PIC16C72 has 128 bytes of RAM and 22 I/O pins.
In addition several peripheral features are available
including: three timer/counters, one Capture/Compare/
PWM module and one serial port. The Synchronous
Serial Port can be configured as either a 3-wire Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI) or the two-wire Inter-Integrated Circuit (I
8-bit A/D is provided. The 8-bit resolution is ideally
suited for applications requiring low-cost analog interface, e.g. thermostat control, pressure sensing, etc.
The PIC16C73/73A devices have 192 bytes of RAM,
while the PIC16C76 has 368 byes of RAM. Each de vice
has 22 I/O pins. In addition, several peripheral features
are available including: three timer/counters, two Capture/Compare/PWM modules and two serial ports. The
Synchronous Serial Port can be configured as either a
3-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or the two-wire
Inter-Integrated Circuit (I
chronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter
(USART) is also known as the Serial Communications
Interface or SCI. Also a 5-channel high-speed 8-bit A/
D is provided.The 8-bit resolution is ideally suited for
applications requiring low-cost analog interface, e.g.
thermostat control, pressure sensing, etc.
The PIC16C74/74A devices have 192 bytes of RAM,
while the PIC16C77 has 368 bytes of RAM. Each
device has 33 I/O pins. In addition several peripheral
features are available including: three timer/counters,
two Capture/Compare/PWM modules and two serial
ports. The Synchronous Serial Port can be configured
as either a 3-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or
the two-wire Inter-Integrated Circuit (I
versal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART) is also known as the Serial
Communications Interface or SCI. An 8-bit Parallel
Slave Port is provided. Also an 8-channel high-speed
2
C) bus. Also a 5-channel high-speed
low-cost, high-perfor-
2
C) bus. The Universal Syn-
2
C) bus. The Uni-
8-bit A/D is provided. The 8-bit resolution is ideally
suited for applications requiring low-cost analog interface, e.g. thermostat control, pressure sensing, etc.
The PIC16C7X family has special features to reduce
external components, thus reducing cost, enhancing
system reliability and reducing power consumption.
There are four oscillator options, of which the single pin
RC oscillator provides a low-cost solution, the LP oscillator minimizes power consumption, XT is a standard
crystal, and the HS is for High Speed crystals. The
SLEEP (power-down) feature provides a power saving
mode. The user can wake up the chip from SLEEP
through several external and internal interrupts and
resets.
A highly reliable Watchdog Timer with its own on-chip
RC oscillator provides protection against software lockup.
A UV erasable CERDIP packaged version is ideal for
code development while the cost-effective One-TimeProgrammable (OTP) version is suitable for production
in any volume.
The PIC16C7X family fits perfectly in applications ranging from security and remote sensors to appliance control and automotive. The EPROM technology makes
customization of application programs (transmitter
codes, motor speeds, receiver frequencies, etc.)
extremely fast and convenient. The small footprint
packages make this microcontroller series perfect for
all applications with space limitations. Low cost, low
power , high perf ormance, ease of use and I/O fle xibility
make the PIC16C7X very versatile ev en in areas where
no microcontroller use has been considered before
(e.g. timer functions, serial communication, capture
and compare, PWM functions and coprocessor applications).
1.1F
Users familiar with the PIC16C5X microcontroller family will realize that this is an enhanced version of the
PIC16C5X architecture. Please refer to Appendix A for

Devices
Microchip offers a QTP Programming Service for factory production orders. This service is made available
for users who choose not to program a medium to high
quantity of units and whose code patterns have stabilized. The devices are identical to the OTP devices but
with all EPROM locations and configuration options
already programmed by the factory. Certain code and
prototype verification procedures apply before production shipments are available. Please contact your local
Microchip Technology sales office for more details.
2.4Serializ
Production (SQTP
Microchip offers a unique programming service where
a few user-defined locations in each device are programmed with different serial numbers. The serial numbers may be random, pseudo-random, or sequential.
Serial programming allows each device to have a
unique number which can serve as an entry-code,
password, or ID number.

Devices
The availability of OTP devices is especially useful for
customers who need the flexibility for frequent code
updates and small volume applications.
The OTP devices, packaged in plastic packages, permit the user to program them once. In addition to the
program memory, the configuration bits must also be
programmed.

3.0ARCHITECTURAL OVERVIEW
The high performance of the PIC16CXX family can be
attributed to a number of architectural features commonly found in RISC microprocessors. To begin with,
the PIC16CXX uses a Harvard architecture, in which,
program and data are accessed from separate memories using separate buses. This improves bandwidth
over traditional v on Neumann architecture in which program and data are fetched from the same memory
using the same bus. Separating program and data
buses further allows instructions to be sized differently
than the 8-bit wide data word. Instruction opcodes are
14-bits wide making it possible to have all single word
instructions. A 14-bit wide program memory access
bus fetches a 14-bit instruction in a single cycle. A twostage pipeline overlaps fetch and execution of instructions (Example 3-1). Consequently, all instructions (35)
execute in a single cycle (200 ns @ 20 MHz) e xcept f or
program branches.
The table below lists program memory (EPROM) and
data memory (RAM) for each PIC16C7X device.

The PIC16CXX can directly or indirectly address its
register files or data memory. All special function registers, including the program counter, are mapped in the
data memory. The PIC16CXX has an orthogonal (symmetrical) instruction set that makes it possible to carry
out any operation on any register using any addressing
mode. This symmetrical nature and lack of ‘special
optimal situations’ make programming with the
PIC16CXX simple yet efficient. In addition, the learning
curve is reduced significantly.
Program
Memory
Data Memory
PIC16CXX devices contain an 8-bit ALU and working
register. The ALU is a general purpose arithmetic unit.
It performs arithmetic and Boolean functions between
the data in the working register and any register file.
The ALU is 8-bits wide and capable of addition, subtraction, shift and logical operations. Unless otherwise
mentioned, arithmetic operations are two's complement in nature. In two-operand instructions, typically
one operand is the working register (W register). The
other operand is a file register or an immediate constant. In single operand instructions, the operand is
either the W register or a file register.
The W register is an 8-bit working register used for ALU
operations. It is not an addressable register.
Depending on the instruction executed, the ALU may
affect the values of the Carry (C), Digit Carry (DC), and
Zero (Z) bits in the STATUS register. The C and DC bits
operate as a borro
respectively, in subtraction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF
instructions for examples.
Note 1: Higher order bits are from the STATUS register.
2: Brown-out Reset is not available on the PIC16C74.

3.1Clocking Scheme/Instruction Cycle
The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by
four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature
clocks namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the program counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, the
instruction is fetched from the program memory and
latched into the instruction register in Q4. The instruction is decoded and executed during the following Q1
through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow
is shown in Figure 3-4.

3.2Instruction Flow/Pipelining
An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1,
Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instr uction 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 3-1).
A fetch cycle begins with the program counter (PC)
incrementing in Q1.
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).

4.1Program Memory Organization
The PIC16C7X family has a 13-bit program counter
capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory
space. The amount of program memory available to
each device is listed below:
Device
PIC16C722K x 140000h-07FFh
PIC16C734K x 140000h-0FFFh
PIC16C73A4K x 140000h-0FFFh
PIC16C744K x 140000h-0FFFh
PIC16C74A4K x 140000h-0FFFh
PIC16C768K x 140000h-1FFFh
PIC16C778K x 140000h-1FFFh
For those devices with less than 8K program memory,
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.

Applicable Devices
72 73 73A 74 74A 76 77
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.
Each bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes). The lower
locations of each bank are reserved for the Special
Function Registers. Above 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.
4.2.1GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE
The register file can be accessed either directly , or indi-
rectly through the File Select Register FSR
(Section 4.5).
Note 1: PORTD, PORTE, TRISD, and TRISE are unimplemented on the PIC16C76, read as '0'.

4.2.2.1STATUS REGISTER
Applicable Devices
72 73 73A 74 74A 76 77
The ST ATUS register, shown in Figure 4-7, 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.
O and PD bits are not
For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper-three
bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the STATUS register
as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the
STATUS register because these instructions do not
affect the Z, C or DC bits from the STA TUS register. For
other instructions, not affecting any status bits, see the
"Instruction Set Summary."
Note 1: For those devices that 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.

73 73A 74 74A 76 77
The program counter (PC) is 13-bits wide. The low byte
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and
writable register. The upper bits (PC<12:8>) are not
readable, but are indirectly writable through the
PCLATH register. On any reset, the upper bits of the
PC will be cleared. Figure 4-17 shows the two situations for the loading of the PC. The upper example in
the figure shows how the PC is loaded on a write to
PCL (PCLATH<4:0> → PCH). The lower example in
the figure shows how the PC is loaded during a CALL
or GOTO instruction (PCLATH<4:3> → PCH).

Note 1: There are no status bits to indicate stack

Note 2: There are no instructions/mnemonics
called PUSH or POP. These are actions
that occur from the execution of the
CALL, RETURN, RETLW, and RETFIE
instructions, or the vectoring to an interrupt address.
4.4Program Memory Paging
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
PIC16C7X devices are capable of addressing a continuous 8K word block of program memory. The CALL andGOTO instructions provide only 11 bits of address to
allow branching within any 2K program memory page.
When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction the upper 2 bits
of the address are provided by PCLATH<4:3>. When
doing a CALL or GOTO 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:PIC16C7X devices with 4K or less of pro-
gram memory 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.
4.3.1COMPUTED GOTO
A computed GOTO is accomplished by adding an off-
set to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When doing
a table read using a computed GOTO method, care
should be exercised if the tab le location crosses a PCL
memory boundary (each 256 byte block). Refer to the
application note
“Implementing a Table Read"
(AN556).
4.3.2STACK
The PIC16CXX family has an 8 lev el 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 affected by a PUSH or POP operation.
The stack operates as a circular buff er . This means that
after the stack has been PUSHed eight times, the ninth
push overwrites the value that was stored from the first
push. The tenth push overwrites the second push (and
so on).
DS30390E-page 40 1997 Microchip Technology Inc.
PIC16C7X
Example 4-1 shows the calling of a subroutine in
page 1 of the program memory. This example assumes
that PCLATH is saved and restored by the interrupt service routine (if interrupts are used).
The INDF register is not a physical register . Addressing
the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF register. Any instruction using the INDF register actually
accesses 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 (although status bits
may be affected). An effective 9-bit address is obtained
by concatenating the 8-bit FSR register and the IRP bit
(STATUS<7>), as shown in Figure 4-18.
A simple program to clear RAM locations 20h-2Fh
using indirect addressing is shown in Example 4-2.
For register file map detail see Figure 4-4, and Figure 4-5.

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.
5.1PORTA and TRISA Registers
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
PORTA is a 6-bit latch.
The RA4/T0CKI pin is a Schmitt Trigger input and an
open drain output. All other RA port pins hav e TTL input
levels and full CMOS output drivers. All pins have data
direction bits (TRIS registers) which can configure
these pins as output or input.
Setting a TRISA register bit puts the corresponding output driver in a hi-impedance mode. Clearing a bit in the
TRISA register puts the contents of the output latch on
the selected pin(s).
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.
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.

PORTB is an 8-bit wide bi-directional port. The corresponding data direction register is TRISB. Setting a bit
in the TRISB register puts the corresponding output
driver in a hi-impedance input mode. Clearing a bit in
the TRISB register puts the contents of the output latch
on the selected pin(s).

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 disabled 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. an y 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.
This interrupt on mismatch feature, together with software configurable pull-ups on these four pins allow
easy interface to a keypad and make it possible for
wake-up on key-depression. Refer to the Embedded
Control Handbook,
Stroke"
(AN552).
"Implementing Wake-Up on Key
Note:For the PIC16C73/74, if a change on the
I/O pin should occur when the read operation is being executed (start of the Q2
cycle), then interrupt flag bit RBIF may not
get set.
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.

PORTC is an 8-bit bi-directional port. Each pin is individually configurable as an input or output through the
TRISC register. PORTC is multiplexed with several
peripheral functions (Table 5-5). 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.

PORTE has three pins RE0/RD/AN5, RE1/WR/AN6
and RE2/CS
/AN7, which are individually configurable
as inputs or outputs. These pins have Schmitt Trigger
input buffers.
I/O PORTE becomes control inputs for the microprocessor port when bit PSPMODE (TRISE<4>) is set. In
this mode, the user must make sure that the
TRISE<2:0> bits are set (pins are configured as digital
inputs) and that register ADCON1 is configured for digital I/O. In this mode the input buffers are TTL.
Figure 5-9 shows the TRISE register, which also controls the parallel slave port operation.
PORTE pins are multiplexed with analog inputs. The
operation of these pins is selected by control bits in the
ADCON1 register. When selected as an analog input,
these pins will read as '0's.
TRISE controls the direction of the RE pins, even when
they are being used as analog inputs. The user must
make sure to keep the pins configured as inputs when
using them as analog inputs.

read followed by a write operation. The BCF and BSF
instructions, for example, read the register into the
CPU, ex ecute the bit operation and write the result back
to the register. Caution must be used when these
instructions are applied to a port with both inputs and
outputs defined. For example, a BSF operation on bit5
of PORTB will cause all eight bits of PORTB to be read
into the CPU. Then the BSF operation takes place on
bit5 and PORTB is written to the output latches. If
another bit of PORTB is used as a bi-directional I/O pin
(e.g., bit0) and it is defined as an input at this time, the
input signal present on the pin itself would be read into
the CPU and rewritten to the data latch of this particular
pin, overwriting the previous content. As long as the pin
stays in the input mode, no problem occurs . However, if
bit0 is switched to an output, the content of the data
latch may now be unknown.
Reading the port register, reads the values of the port
pins. Writing to the port register writes the value to the
port latch. When using read-modify-write instructions
(ex. BCF, BSF , etc.) on a port, the value of the port pins
is read, the desired operation is done to this value, and
this value is then written to the port latch.
Example 5-4 shows the effect of two sequential readmodify-write instructions on an I/O port.

A pin actively outputting a Low or High should not be
driven from external devices at the same time in order
to change the level on this pin (“wired-or”, “wired-and”).
The resulting high output currents may damage the
chip.
5.6.2SUCCESSIVE OPERATIONS ON I/O PORTS
The actual write to an I/O port happens at the end of an
instruction cycle, whereas for reading, the data must be
valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle (Figure 5-
10). Therefore, care must be exercised if a write followed by a read operation is carried out on the same I/
O port. The sequence of instructions should be such to
allow the pin voltage to stabilize (load dependent)
before the next instruction which causes that file to be
read into the CPU is executed. Otherwise, the previous
state of that pin may be read into the CPU rather than
the new state. When in doubt, it is better to separate
these instructions with a NOP or another instruction not
accessing this I/O port.

5.7Parallel Slave Port
Applicable Devices
72 73 73A 74 74A 76 77
PORTD operates as an 8-bit wide Parallel Slave Port,
or microprocessor port when control bit PSPMODE
(TRISE<4>) is set. In slave mode it is asynchronously
readable and writable by the e xternal world through RD
control input pin RE0/RD/AN5 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
WR
CS
sponding data direction bits of the TRISE register
(TRISE<2:0>) must be configured as inputs (set) and
the A/D port configuration bits PCFG2:PCFG0
(ADCON1<2:0>) must be set, which will configure pins
RE2:RE0 as digital I/O.
There are actually two 8-bit latches, one for data-out
(from the PIC16/17) and one for data input. The user
writes 8-bit data to PORTD data latch and reads data
from the port pin latch (note that they have the same
address). In this mode, the TRISD register is ignored,
since the microprocessor is controlling the direction of
data flow.
A write to the PSP occurs when both the CS
lines are first detected low. When either the CS or WR
lines become high (level triggered), then the Input
Buffer Full status flag bit IBF (TRISE<7>) is set on the
Q4 clock cycle, following the next Q2 cycle, to signal
the write is complete (Figure 5-12). The interrupt flag bit
PSPIF (PIR1<7>) is also set on the same Q4 clock
cycle. IBF can only be cleared by reading the PORTD
input latch. The input Buffer Overflow status flag bit
IBOV (TRISE<5>) is set if a second write to the P arallel
Slave P ort is attempted when the previous b yte has not
been read out of the buffer.
A read from the PSP occurs when both the CS
lines are first detected low. The Output Buffer Full status flag bit OBF (TRISE<6>) is cleared immediately
(Figure 5-13) indicating that the PORTD latch is waiting
to be read by the external bus. When either the CS
RD
bit PSPIF is set on the Q4 clock cycle, following the
next Q2 cycle, indicating that the read is complete.
OBF remains low until data is written to PORTD by the
user firmware.
When not in Parallel Slav e P ort mode, the IBF and OBF
bits are held clear. However, if flag bit IBOV was previously set, it must be cleared in firmware.
An interrupt is generated and latched into flag bit
PSPIF when a read or write operation is completed.
PSPIF must be cleared by the user in firmware and the
interrupt can be disabled by clearing the interrupt
enable bit PSPIE (PIE1<7>).

6.0OVERVIEW OF TIMER
MODULES
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
The PIC16C72, PIC16C73/73A, PIC16C74/74A,
PIC16C76/77 each have three timer modules.
Each module can generate an interrupt to indicate that
an event has occurred (i.e. timer overflow). Each of
these modules is explained in full detail in the follo wing
sections. The timer modules are:
• Timer0 Module (Section 7.0)
• Timer1 Module (Section 8.0)
• Timer2 Module (Section 9.0)
6.1Timer0 Overview
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
The Timer0 module is a simple 8-bit overflow counter.
The clock source can be either the internal system
clock (Fosc/4) or an external clock. When the clock
source is an external clock, the Timer0 module can be
selected to increment on either the rising or falling
edge.
The Timer0 module also has a programmable prescaler option. This prescaler can be assigned to either
the Timer0 module or the Watchdog Timer. Bit PSA
(OPTION<3>) assigns the prescaler, and bits PS2:PS0
(OPTION<2:0>) determine the prescaler value. Timer0
can increment at the following rates: 1:1 (when prescaler assigned to Watchdog timer), 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16,
1:32, 1:64, 1:128, and 1:256 (Timer0 only).
Synchronization of the external clock occurs after the
prescaler. When the prescaler is used, the external
clock frequency may be higher then the device’s frequency. The maximum frequency is 50 MHz, given the
high and low time requirements of the clock.
6.2Timer1 Overview
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
Timer1 is a 16-bit timer/counter. The clock source can
be either the internal system clock (Fosc/4), an external
clock, or an external crystal. Timer1 can operate as
either a timer or a counter. When operating as a
counter (external clock source), the counter can either
operate synchronized to the device or asynchronously
to the device. Asynchronous operation allo ws Timer1 to
operate during sleep, which is useful for applications
that require a real-time clock as well as the power savings of SLEEP mode.
Timer1 also has a prescaler option which allows
Timer1 to increment at the following rates: 1:1, 1:2, 1:4,
and 1:8. Timer1 can be used in conjunction with the
Capture/Compare/PWM module. When used with a
CCP module, Timer1 is the time-base for 16-bit Capture or the 16-bit Compare and must be synchronized
to the device.
6.3Timer2 Overview
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
Timer2 is an 8-bit timer with a programmable prescaler
and postscaler, as well as an 8-bit period register
(PR2). Timer2 can be used with the CCP1 module (in
PWM mode) as well as the Baud Rate Generator for
the Synchronous Serial Port (SSP). The prescaler
option allows Timer2 to increment at the following
rates: 1:1, 1:4, 1:16.
The postscaler allows the TMR2 register to match the
period register (PR2) a programmable number of times
before generating an interrupt. The postscaler can be
programmed from 1:1 to 1:16 (inclusive).
6.4CCP Overview
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
The CCP module(s) can operate in one of these three
modes: 16-bit capture, 16-bit compare, or up to 10-bit
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM).
Capture mode captures the 16-bit value of TMR1 into
the CCPRxH:CCPRxL register pair. The capture event
can be programmed for either the falling edge, rising
edge, fourth rising edge, or the sixteenth rising edge of
the CCPx pin.
Compare mode compares the TMR1H:TMR1L register
pair to the CCPRxH:CCPRxL register pair. When a
match occurs an interrupt can be generated, and the
output pin CCPx can be forced to given state (High or
Low), TMR1 can be reset (CCP1), or TMR1 reset and
start A/D conversion (CCP2). This depends on the control bits CCPxM3:CCPxM0.
PWM mode compares the TMR2 register to a 10-bit
duty cycle register (CCPRxH:CCPRxL<5:4>) as well as
to an 8-bit period register (PR2). When the TMR2 register = Duty Cycle register, the CCPx pin will be forced
low. When TMR2 = PR2, TMR2 is cleared to 00h, an
interrupt can be generated, and the CCPx pin (if an output) will be forced high.

7.0TIMER0 MODULE
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
The Timer0 module timer/counter has the f ollowing f eatures:
• 8-bit timer/counter
• Readable and writable
• 8-bit software programmable prescaler
• Internal or external clock select
• Interrupt on overflow from FFh to 00h
• Edge select for external clock
Figure 7-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer0
module.
Timer mode is selected by clearing bit T0CS
(OPTION<5>). In timer mode, the Timer0 module will
increment every instruction cycle (without prescaler). If
the TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited
for the following two instruction cycles (Figure 7-2 and
Figure 7-3). The user can work around this by writing
an adjusted value to the TMR0 register.
Counter mode is selected by setting bit T0CS
(OPTION<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<4>). Clear ing
bit T0SE selects the rising edge. Restr ictions on the
external clock input are discussed in detail in
Section 7.2.
The prescaler is mutually exclusively shared between
the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. The prescaler assignment is controlled in software by control bit
PSA (OPTION<3>). Clearing bit PSA will assign the
prescaler to the Timer0 module. The prescaler is not
readable or writable. When the prescaler is assigned to
the Timer0 module, prescale values of 1:2, 1:4, ...,
1:256 are selectable. Section 7.3 details the operation
of the prescaler.
7.1Timer0 Interrupt
Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
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. See
Figure 7-4 for Timer0 interrupt timing.

7.2Using Timer0 with an External Clock
Applicable Devices
72

When an external clock input is used for Timer0, it m ust
meet certain requirements. The requirements ensure
the external clock can be synchronized with the internal
phase clock (T
incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization.
7.2.1EXTERNAL CLOCK SYNCHRONIZATION
When no prescaler is used, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization
of T0CKI with the internal phase clocks is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks (Figure 7-5).
Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to be high for at
least 2Tosc (and a small RC delay of 20 ns) and low for
at least 2Tosc (and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer to
OSC). Also, there is a delay in the actual
When a prescaler is used, the external clock input is
divided by the asynchronous ripple-counter type prescaler so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. For
the external clock to meet the sampling requirement,
the ripple-counter must be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to have a period of at
least 4Tosc (and a small RC delay of 40 ns) divided by
the prescaler value. The only requirement on T0CKI
high and low time is that they do not violate the minimum pulse width requirement of 10 ns. Ref er to parameters 40, 41 and 42 in the electrical specification of the
desired device.
7.2.2TMR0 INCREMENT DELAY
Since the prescaler output is synchronized with the
internal clocks, there is a small delay from the time the
external clock edge occurs to the time the Timer0 module is actually incremented. Figure 7-5 shows the dela y
from the external clock edge to the timer incrementing.

Applicable Devices
72
73 73A 74 74A 76 77
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer, respectively (Figure 7-6). For simplicity, this
counter is being referred to as “prescaler” throughout
this data sheet. Note that there is only one prescaler
available which is m utually exclusively shared between
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
The PSA and PS2:PS0 bits (OPTION<3:0>) determine
the prescaler assignment and prescale ratio.
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions
writing to the TMR0 register (e.g. CLRF 1, MOVWF 1,
BSF 1,x....etc.) will clear the prescaler. When
assigned to WDT, a CLRWDT instruction will clear the
prescaler along with the Watchdog Timer. The prescaler is not readable or writable.
Note:Writing to TMR0 when the prescaler is
assigned to Timer0 will clear the prescaler
count, but will not change the prescaler
assignment.

7.3.1SWITCHING 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, the
following instruction sequence (shown in
Example 7-1) must be executed when
changing the prescaler assignment from
Timer0 to the WDT. This sequence must
be followed even if the WDT is disabled.

The Timer1 module is a 16-bit timer/counter consisting
of two 8-bit registers (TMR1H and TMR1L) which are
readable and writable. The TMR1 Register pair
(TMR1H:TMR1L) increments from 0000h to FFFFh
and 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>).
Timer1 can operate in one of two modes:
• As a timer
• As a counter
The operating mode is determined by the clock select
bit, TMR1CS (T1CON<1>).
In timer mode, Timer1 increments every instruction
cycle. In counter mode, it increments on every rising
edge of the external clock input.
Timer1 can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing
control bit TMR1ON (T1CON<0>).
Timer1 also has an internal “reset input”. This reset can
be generated by either of the two CCP modules
(Section 10.0). Figure 8-1 shows the Timer1 control
register.
For the PIC16C72/73A/74A/76/77, when the Timer1
oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is set), the RC1/
T1OSI/CCP2 and RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI pins become
inputs. That is, the TRISC<1:0> value is ignored.
For the PIC16C73/74, when the Timer1 oscillator is
enabled (T1OSCEN is set), RC1/T1OSI/CCP2 pin
becomes an input, however the RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI
pin will have to be configured as an input by setting the
TRISC<0> bit.

When an external clock input is used for Timer1 in synchronized counter mode, it must meet certain requirements. The external clock requirement is due to
internal phase clock (Tosc) synchronization. Also, there
is a delay in the actual incrementing of TMR1 after synchronization.
When the prescaler is 1:1, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization
of T1CKI with the internal phase clocks is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is
necessary for T1CKI to be high for at least 2Tosc (and
a small RC delay of 20 ns) and low for at least 2Tosc
(and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer to the appropriate electrical specifications, parameters 45, 46, and 47.
When a prescaler other than 1:1 is used, the external
clock input is divided by the asynchronous ripplecounter type prescaler so that the prescaler output is
symmetrical. In order for the external clock to meet the
sampling requirement, the ripple-counter must be
taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T1CKI
to have a period of at least 4Tosc (and a small RC delay
of 40 ns) divided by the prescaler value. The only
requirement on T1CKI high and low time is that the y do
not violate the minimum pulse width requirements of
10 ns). Refer to the appropriate electrical specifications, parameters 40, 42, 45, 46, and 47.

If control bit T1SYNC (T1CON<2>) is set, the external
clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to
increment asynchronous to the internal phase clocks.
The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can
generate an interrupt on overflow which will wake-up
the processor. However, special precautions in software are needed to read/write the timer (Section 8.3.2).
In asynchronous counter mode, Timer1 can not be
used as a time-base for capture or compare operations.

certain minimum high time and low time requirements.
Refer to the appropriate Electrical Specifications Section, timing parameters 45, 46, and 47.
8.3.2READING AND WRITING TIMER1 IN
ASYNCHRONOUS COUNTER MODE
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L while the timer is running,
from an external asynchronous clock, will guarantee a
valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the
user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer
in two 8-bit values itself poses certain problems since
the timer may overflow between the reads.
For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop
the timer and write the desired values. A write contention may occur by writing to the timer registers while the
register is incrementing. This may produce an unpredictable value in the timer register.
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care.
Example 8-1 is an example routine to read the 16-bit
timer value. This is useful if the timer cannot be
stopped.

The CCP2 module is not implemented on the
PIC16C72 device.
If the CCP1 or CCP2 module is configured in compare
mode to generate a “special event trigger"
(CCP1M3:CCP1M0 = 1011), this signal will reset
Timer1.
Note:The special event triggers from the CCP1
and CCP2 modules will not set interrupt
flag bit TMR1IF (PIR1<0>).
Timer1 must be configured for either timer or synchronized counter mode to take advantage of this feature.
If Timer1 is running in asynchronous counter mode, this
reset operation may not work.
In the event that a write to Timer1 coincides with a special event trigger from CCP1 or CCP2, the write will
take precedence.
In this mode of operation, the CCPRxH:CCPRxL registers pair effectively becomes the period register for
Timer1.

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. Both the CCP1 and
CCP2 modules are identical in operation, with the
exception of the operation of the special event trigger.
Table 10-1 and Table 10-2 show the resources and
interactions of the CCP module(s). In the following sections, the operation of a CCP module is described with
respect to CCP1. CCP2 operates the same as CCP1,
except where noted.

In Capture mode, CCPR1H:CCPR1L captures the
16-bit value of the TMR1 register when an ev ent occurs
on pin RC2/CCP1. An event is defined as:
• Every falling edge
• Every rising edge
• Every 4th rising edge
• Every 16th rising edge
An event is selected by control bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0
(CCP1CON<3:0>). When a capture is made, the interrupt request flag bit CCP1IF (PIR1<2>) is set. It must
be cleared in software. If another capture occurs bef ore
the value in register CCPR1 is read, the old captured
value will be lost.
10.1.1CCP PIN CONFIGURATION
In Capture mode, the RC2/CCP1 pin should be config-
ured 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.

10.1.4CCP PRESCALER
There are four prescaler settings, specified by bits
CCP1M3:CCP1M0. Whenever the CCP module is
turned off, or the CCP module is not in capture mode,
the prescaler counter is cleared. This means that any
reset will clear the prescaler counter.
Switching from one capture prescaler to another may
generate an interrupt. Also, the prescaler counter will
not be cleared, therefore the first capture may be from
a non-zero prescaler. Example 10-1 shows the recommended method for switching between capture prescalers. This example also clears the prescaler counter
and will not generate the “false” interrupt.

In Compare mode, the 16-bit CCPR1 register value is
constantly compared against the TMR1 register pair
value. When a match occurs, the RC2/CCP1 pin is:
• Driven High
• Driven Low
• Remains Unchanged
The action on the pin is based on the value of control
bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0 (CCP1CON<3:0>). At the
same time, interrupt flag bit CCP1IF is set.

10.2.1CCP PIN CONFIGURATION
The user must configure the RC2/CCP1 pin as an out-
put by clearing the TRISC<2> bit.
Note:Clearing the CCP1CON register will force
the RC2/CCP1 compare output latch to the
default low level. This is not the data latch.
10.2.2TIMER1 MODE SELECTION
Timer1 must be running in Timer mode or Synchro-
nized Counter mode if the CCP module is using the
compare feature. In Asynchronous Counter mode, the
compare operation may not work.
10.2.3SOFTWARE INTERRUPT MODE
When generate software interrupt is chosen the CCP1
pin is not affected. Only a CCP interrupt is generated (if
enabled).
10.2.4SPECIAL EVENT TRIGGER
In this mode, an internal hardware trigger is generated
which may be used to initiate an action.
The special event trigger output of CCP1 resets the
TMR1 register pair. This allows the CCPR1 register to
effectively be a 16-bit progr ammab le period register for
Timer1.
The special trigger output of CCP2 resets the TMR1
register pair, and starts an A/D conversion (if the A/D
module is enabled).
For the PIC16C72 only, the special event trigger output
of CCP1 resets the TMR1 register pair, and starts an
A/D conversion (if the A/D module is enabled).
Note:The special event trigger from the
CCP1and CCP2 modules will not set interrupt flag bit TMR1IF (PIR1<0>).

In Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode, the CCPx pin
produces up to a 10-bit resolution PWM output. Since
the CCP1 pin is multiplexed with the POR TC data latch,
the TRISC<2> bit must be cleared to make the CCP1

The PWM period is specified by writing to the PR2 reg-
ister. The PWM period can be calculated using the following formula:
PWM period = [(PR2) + 1] • 4 • T
OSC•
(TMR2 prescale value)
PWM frequency is defined as 1 / [PWM period].
When TMR2 is equal to PR2, the f ollowing three e v ents
occur on the next increment cycle:
• TMR2 is cleared
• The CCP1 pin is set (exception: if PWM duty
cycle = 0%, the CCP1 pin will not be set)
• The PWM duty cycle is latched from CCPR1L into
CCPR1H
Note:The Timer2 postscaler (see Section 9.1) 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.
10.3.2PWM 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:
CCPR1L and CCP1CON<5:4> can be written to at any
time, but the duty cycle value is not latched into
CCPR1H until after a match between PR2 and TMR2
occurs (i.e., the period is complete). In PWM mode,
CCPR1H is a read-only register.
The CCPR1H register and a 2-bit internal latch are
used to double buffer the PWM duty cycle. This double
buffering is essential for glitchless PWM operation.
When the CCPR1H and 2-bit latch match TMR2 concatenated with an internal 2-bit Q clock or 2 bits of the
TMR2 prescaler, the CCP1 pin is cleared.

10.3.3SET-UP FOR PWM OPERATION
The following steps should be taken when configuring
the CCP module for PWM operation:
1. Set the PWM period by writing to the PR2 register.
2. Set the PWM duty cycle by writing to the
CCPR1L register and CCP1CON<5:4> bits.
3. Make the CCP1 pin an output by clearing the
TRISC<2> bit.
4. Set the TMR2 prescale value and enable Timer2
by writing to T2CON.
5. Configure the CCP1 module for PWM operation.

11.1SSP Module Overview
The Synchronous Serial Port (SSP) module is a serial
interface useful for communicating with other peripheral or microcontroller devices. These peripheral
devices may be Serial EEPROMs, shift registers, display drivers, A/D converters, etc. The SSP module can
operate in one of two modes:
• Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
• Inter-Integrated Circuit (I
The SSP module in I
PIC16C7X devices that hav e an SSP module. However
the SSP Module in SPI mode has differences between
the PIC16C76/77 and the other PIC16C7X devices.
The register definitions and operational description of
SPI mode has been split into two sections because of
the differences between the PIC16C76/77 and the
other PIC16C7X devices. The default reset values of
both the SPI modules is the same regardless of the
device:

This section contains register definitions and operational characteristics of the SPI module for the
PIC16C72, PIC16C73, PIC16C73A, PIC16C74,

The SPI mode allows 8-bits of data to be synchronously transmitted and received simultaneously. To
accomplish communication, typically three pins are
used:
• Serial Data Out (SDO)
• Serial Data In (SDI)
• Serial Clock (SCK)
Additionally a fourth pin may be used when in a slave
mode of operation:
• Slave Select (SS
)
When initializing the SPI, several options need to be
specified. This is done by programming the appropriate
control bits in the SSPCON register (SSPCON<5:0>).
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 (Output/Input data on the Rising/
Falling edge of SCK)
• Clock Rate (Master mode only)
• Slave Select Mode (Slave mode only)
The SSP 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 b yte is mo v ed to the SSPBUF
register. Then the Buffer Full bit, BF (SSPSTAT<0>)
and 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 SSPBUF register during
transmission/reception of data will be ignored, and the
write collision detect bit, WCOL (SSPCON<7>) will be
set. User software must clear bit WCOL so that it can
be determined if the following write(s) to the SSPBUF
completed successfully. When the application software
is expecting to receive v alid data, the SSPB UF register
should be read before the next byte of data to transfer
is written to the SSPBUF register. The Buffer Full bit BF
(SSPSTAT<0>) indicates when the SSPBUF register
has been loaded with the received data (transmission
is complete). When the SSPBUF is read, bit BF is
cleared. This data may be irrelevant if the SPI is only a
transmitter. Generally the SSP Interrupt is used to
determine when the transmission/reception has completed. The SSPBUF register 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 11-1 shows the loading
of the SSPBUF (SSPSR) register for data transmission.
The shaded instruction is only required if the received
data is meaningful.

The block diagram of the SSP module, when in SPI
mode (Figure 11-3), shows that the SSPSR register is
not directly readable or writable, and can only be
accessed from addressing the SSPBUF register. Additionally, the SSP status register (SSPSTAT) indicates
the various status conditions.

To enable the serial port, SSP enable bit SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>) must be set. To reset or reconfigure SPI
mode, clear enable bit SSPEN, re-initialize SSPCON
register, and then set enable bit SSPEN. This configures the SDI, SDO, SCK, and SS
pins as serial port
pins. For the pins to behave as the serial port function,
they must hav e their data direction bits (in the TRIS register) appropriately programmed. That is:
• SDI must have TRISC<4> set
• SDO must have TRISC<5> cleared
• SCK (Master mode) must have TRISC<3>
cleared
• SCK (Slave mode) must have TRISC<3> set
•SS
must have TRISA<5> set (if implemented)
Any serial port function that is not desired may be overridden by programming the corresponding data direction (TRIS) register to the opposite value. An example
would be in master mode where you are only sending
data (to a display driver), then both SDI and SS
could
be used as general purpose outputs by clearing their
corresponding TRIS register bits.
Figure 11-4 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 programmed clock edge, and latched on the opposite edge
of the clock. Both processors should be programmed 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:
• Master sends data — Slave sends dummy data
• Master sends data — Slave sends data
• Master sends dummy data — Slave sends data
The master can initiate the data transfer at any time
because it controls the SCK. The master deter mines
when the slave (Processor 2) is to broadcast data by
the software protocol.
In master mode the data is transmitted/received as
soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI is
only going to receive, the SCK output could be disabled
(programmed as an input). The SSPSR register will
continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin at
the 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.
In slave mode, the data is transmitted and received as
the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the
last bit is latched interrupt flag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is
set.
The clock polarity is selected by appropriately programming bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). This then would give
waveforms for SPI communication as shown in
Figure 11-5 and Figure 11-6 where the MSB is transmitted first. In master mode , the SPI clock r ate (bit rate)
is user programmable to be one of the following:
• Fosc/4 (or T
• Fosc/16 (or 4 • T
• Fosc/64 (or 16 • T
CY)
CY)
CY)
• Timer2 output/2
This allows a maximum bit clock frequency (at 20 MHz)
of 5 MHz. When in slave mode the external clock must
meet the minimum high and low times.
In sleep mode, the slave can transmit and receive data
and wake the device from sleep.

The SS pin allows a synchronous slave mode. The
SPI must be in slave mode (SSPCON<3:0> = 04h)
and the TRISA<5> bit must be set the for synchronous slave mode to be enabled. When the SS
pin is
low, transmission and reception are enabled and
the SDO pin is driven. When the SS
pin goes high,
the SDO pin is no longer driven, even if in the middle of a transmitted byte, and becomes a floating
output. If the SS
pin is taken low without resetting
SPI mode, the transmission will continue from the
point at which it was taken high. External pull-up/
pull-down resistors may be desirab le, depending on the
application.
To emulate two-wire communication, the SDO pin can
be connected to the SDI pin. When the SPI needs to
operate as a receiver the SDO pin can be configured as
an 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.

11.3.1SPI MODE FOR PIC16C76/77
The SPI mode allows 8-bits of data to be synchro-
nously transmitted and received simultaneously. To
accomplish communication, typically three pins are
used:
• Serial Data Out (SDO) RC5/SDO
• Serial Data In (SDI) RC4/SDI/SDA
• Serial Clock (SCK) RC3/SCK/SCL
Additionally a fourth pin may be used when in a slave
mode of operation:
• Slave Select (SS
) RA5/SS/AN4
When initializing the SPI, several options need to be
specified. This is done by programming the appropriate
control bits in the SSPCON register (SSPCON<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)
• Clock edge (output data on rising/falling edge of
SCK)
• Clock Rate (Master mode only)
• Slave Select Mode (Slave mode only)
The SSP 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 b yte is mo v ed to the SSPBUF
register. Then the buffer full detect bit BF
(SSPSTAT<0>) and interrupt flag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>)
are set. This double buffering of the received data
(SSPBUF) allows the next b yte to start reception before
reading the data that was just received. An y write to the
SSPBUF register during transmission/reception of data
will be ignored, and the write collision detect bit WCOL
(SSPCON<7>) will be set. User softw are must clear the
WCOL bit so that it can be determined if the following
write(s) to the SSPBUF register completed successfully. When the application software is expecting to
receive valid data, the SSPBUF should be read before
the next byte of data to transfer is written to 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,
bit BF is cleared. This data may be irrelevant if the SPI
is only a transmitter. Generally the SSP Interrupt is
used to determine when the transmission/reception
has completed. The SSPBUF must be read and/or written. If the interrupt method is not going to be used, then
software polling can be done to ensure that a write collision does not occur. Example 11-2 shows the loading
of the SSPBUF (SSPSR) for data transmission. The
shaded instruction is only required if the received data
is meaningful.

The block diagram of the SSP module, when in SPI

from addressing the SSPBUF register. Additionally, the
SSP status register (SSPSTAT) indicates the various
status conditions.

To enable the serial port, SSP Enable bit, SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>) must be set. To reset or reconfigure SPI
mode, clear bit SSPEN, re-initialize the SSPCON register, and then set bit SSPEN. This configures the SDI,
SDO, SCK, and SS
pins as serial port pins. For the pins
to behave as the serial port function, they must have
their data direction bits (in the TRISC register) appropriately programmed. That is:
• SDI must have TRISC<4> set
• SDO must have TRISC<5> cleared
• SCK (Master mode) must have TRISC<3>
cleared
• SCK (Slave mode) must have TRISC<3> set

must have TRISA<5> set
Any serial port function that is not desired may be overridden by programming the corresponding data direction (TRIS) register to the opposite value. An example
would be in master mode where you are only sending
data (to a display driver), then both SDI and SS
could
be used as general purpose outputs by clearing their
corresponding TRIS register bits.
Figure 11-10 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 programmed clock edge, and latched on the opposite edge
of the clock. Both processors should be programmed to
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 firmware. This leads to three scenar ios for
data transmission:
• Master sends data — Slave sends dummy data
• Master sends data — Slave sends data
The master can initiate the data transfer at any time
because it controls the SCK. The master deter mines
when the slave (Processor 2) is to broadcast data by
the firmware protocol.
In master mode the data is transmitted/received as
soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI is
only going to receive, the SCK output could be disabled
(programmed as an input). The SSPSR register will
continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin at
the 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.
In slave mode, the data is transmitted and received as
the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the
last bit is latched the interrupt flag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>)
is set.
The clock polarity is selected by appropriately programming bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). This then would give
waveforms for SPI communication as shown in
Figure 11-11, Figure 11-12, and Figure 11-13 where
the MSB is transmitted first. In master mode, the SPI
clock rate (bit rate) is user programmable to be one of
the following:
•F
OSC/4 (or TCY)
•F
OSC/16 (or 4 • TCY)
•F
OSC/64 (or 16 • TCY)
• Timer2 output/2
This allows a maximum bit clock frequency (at 20 MHz)
of 5 MHz. When in slave mode the external clock must
meet the minimum high and low times.
In sleep mode, the slave can transmit and receive data
and wake the device from sleep.
The SS pin allows a synchronous slave mode. The
SPI must be in slave mode (SSPCON<3:0> = 04h)
and the TRISA<5> bit must be set for the synchronous slave mode to be enabled. When the SS
pin is
low, transmission and reception are enabled and
the SDO pin is driven. When the SS
pin goes high,
the SDO pin is no longer driven, even if in the middle of a transmitted byte, and becomes a floating
output. If the SS
pin is taken low without resetting
SPI mode, the transmission will continue from the
point at which it was taken high. External pull-up/
pull-down resistors may be desirab le, depending on the
application.
.
Note:When the SPI is in Slave Mode with SS pin
control enabled, (SSPCON<3:0> = 0100)
the SPI module will reset if the SS
to V
Note:If the SPI is used in Slave Mode with
CKE = '1', then the SS
enabled.
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 I
the Philips Corporation. The original specification, or
standard mode, was for data transfers of up to 100
Kbps. The enhanced specification (fast mode) is also
supported. This device will communicate with both
standard and fast mode devices if attached to the same
bus. The clock will determine the data rate.
2
The I
C interface employs a comprehensiv e protocol to
ensure reliable transmission and reception of data.
When transmitting data, one device is the “master”
which initiates transfer on the bus and generates the
clock signals to permit that transfer, while the other
device(s) acts as the “slave.” All portions of the slave
protocol are implemented in the SSP module’s hardware, except general call support, while portions of the
master protocol need to be addressed in the
PIC16CXX software. Table 11-3 defines some of the
2
I
C bus terminology. For additional information on the

ment “

address. When a master wishes to initiate a data transfer, it first transmits the address of the device that it
wishes to “talk” to. All devices “listen” to see if this is
their address. Within this address, a bit specifies if the
master wishes to read-from/write-to the slave device.
The master and slave are always in opposite modes
(transmitter/receiver) of operation during a data transfer . That is they can be thought of as operating in either
of these two relations:

11.4.1INITIATING AND TERMINATING DATA
TRANSFER
During times of no data transfer (idle time), both the
clock line (SCL) and the data line (SDA) are pulled high
through the external pull-up resistors. The START and
STOP conditions determine the start and stop of data
transmission. The STAR T condition is defined as a high
to low transition of the SDA when the SCL is high. The
STOP condition is defined as a low to high transition of
the SDA when the SCL is high. Figure 11-14 shows the
START and STOP conditions. The master generates
these conditions for starting and terminating data transfer. Due to the definition of the START and STOP conditions, when data is being transmitted, the SDA line
can only change state when the SCL line is low.

11.4.2ADDRESSING I2C DEVICES
There are two address formats. The simplest is the
7-bit address format with a R/W
more complex is the 10-bit address with a R/W
bit (Figure 11-15). The
bit
(Figure 11-16). For 10-bit address format, two bytes
must be transmitted with the first five bits specifying this
to be a 10-bit address.
11.4.3TRANSFER ACKNOWLEDGE
All data must be transmitted per byte, with no limit to the
number of bytes transmitted per data transfer. After
each byte, the slave-receiver generates an acknowledge bit (A
CK) (Figure 11-17). When a slave-receiver
doesn’t acknowledge the slave address or received
data, the master must abort the transfer. The slave
must leave SDA high so that the master can generate
the STOP condition (Figure 11-14).

If the master is receiving the data (master-receiver), it
generates an acknowledge signal for each received
byte of data, except for the last byte. To signal the end
of data to the slave-transmitter, the master does not
generate an acknowledge (not acknowledge). The
slave then releases the SDA line so the master can
generate the STOP condition. The master can also
generate the STOP condition during the acknowledge
pulse for valid termination of data transfer.
If the slave needs to delay the transmission of the next
byte, holding the SCL line low will force the master into
a wait state. Data transfer continues when the slave
releases the SCL line. This allows the slav e to mov e the
received data or fetch the data it needs to transfer
before allowing the clock to start. This wait state technique can also be implemented at the bit level,
Figure 11-18. The sla ve will inherently stretch the cloc k,
when it is a transmitter, b ut will not when it is a receiver.
The slave will have to clear the SSPCON<4> bit to
enable clock stretching when it is a receiver.

Figure 11-19 and Figure 11-20 show Master-transmitter and Master-receiver data transfer sequences.
When a master does not wish to relinquish the bus (by
generating a STOP condition), a repeated START condition (Sr) must be generated. This condition is identical to the start condition (SDA goes high-to-low while

11.4.4MULTI-MASTER
2
The I
C protocol allows a system to have more than
one master. This is called multi-master. When two or
more masters try to transfer data at the same time, arbitration and synchronization occur.
11.4.4.1ARBITRATION
Arbitration takes place on the SDA line, while the SCL
line is high. The master which transmits a high when
the other master transmits a low loses arbitration
(Figure 11-22), and turns off its data output stage. A
master which lost arbitration can generate clock pulses
until the end of the data byte where it lost arbitration.
When the master devices are addressing the same
device, arbitration continues into the data.

SCL
11.2.4.2 Clock Synchronization
Clock synchronization occurs after the devices have
started arbitration. This is performed using a
wired-AND connection to the SCL line. A high to low
transition on the SCL line causes the concerned
devices to start counting off their low period. Once a
device clock has gone low, it will hold the SCL line low
until its SCL high state is reached. The low to high transition of this clock may not change the state of the SCL
line, if another device clock is still within its low period.
The SCL line is held low by the device with the longest
low period. Devices with shorter low periods enter a
high wait-state, until the SCL line comes high. When
the SCL line comes high, all devices start counting off
their high periods. The first device to complete its high
period will pull the SCL line low. The SCL line high time
is determined by the device with the shortest high
period, Figure 11-23.

Masters that also incorporate the slave function, and
have lost arbitration must immediately switch over to
slave-receiver mode. This is because the winning master-transmitter may be addressing it.
Arbitration is not allowed between:
• A repeated START condition
• A STOP condition and a data bit
• A repeated START condition and a STOP condi-
tion
Care needs to be taken to ensure that these conditions
do not occur.

11.5SSP I2C Operation
The SSP module in I2C mode fully implements all slave
functions, except general call support, and provides
interrupts on start and stop bits in hardware to facilitate
firmware implementations of the master functions. The
SSP module implements the standard mode specifications as well as 7-bit and 10-bit addressing. Two pins
are used for data transfer. These are the
RC3/SCK/SCL pin, which is the clock (SCL), and the
RC4/SDI/SDA pin, which is the data (SDA). The user
must configure these pins as inputs or outputs through
the TRISC<4:3> bits. The SSP module functions are
enabled by setting SSP Enable bit SSPEN (SSPCON<5>).

The SSP module has five registers for I2C operation.
These are the:
• SSP Control Register (SSPCON)
• SSP Status Register (SSPSTAT)
• Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF)
• SSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly accessible
• SSP Address Register (SSPADD)
The SSPCON register allows control of the I2C operation. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON<3:0>) allow
one of the following I

2
Selection of any I
C mode, with the SSPEN bit set,
forces the SCL and SDA pins to be open drain, provided these pins are programmed to inputs by setting
the appropriate TRISC bits.
The SSPSTAT register gives the status of the data
transfer. This information includes detection of a
START or STOP bit, specifies if the received byte was
data or address if the next byte is the completion of
10-bit address, and if this will be a read or write data
transfer. The SSPSTAT register is read only.
The SSPBUF is the register to which transfer data is
written to or read from. The SSPSR register shifts the
data in or out of the device. In receive operations, the
SSPBUF and SSPSR create a doubled buffered
receiver . This allows reception of the next byte to begin
before reading the last byte of receiv ed data. When the
complete byte is received, it is transferred to the
SSPBUF register and flag bit SSPIF is set. If another
complete byte is received before the SSPBUF register
is read, a receiver overflow has occurred and bit
SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) is set and the byte in the
SSPSR is lost.
The SSPADD register holds the slave address. In 10-bit
mode, the user first needs to write the high byte of the
address (1111 0 A9 A8 0). Following the high byte
address match, the low byte of the address needs to be
loaded (A7:A0).

11.5.1SLAVE MODE
In slave mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be config-
ured as inputs (TRISC<4:3> set). The SSP module will
override the input state with the output data when
required (slave-transmitter).
When an address is matched or the data transfer after
an address match is received, the hardware automatically will generate the acknowledge (A
then load the SSPBUF register with the received value
currently in the SSPSR register.
There are certain conditions that will cause the SSP
module not to give this A
(or both):
a) The buffer full bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) was set
before the transfer was received.
b) The overflow bit SSPO V (SSPCON<6>) w as set
before the transfer was received.
In this case, the SSPSR register value is not loaded
into the SSPBUF, but bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set.
Table 11-4 shows what happens when a data transfer
byte is received, given the status of bits BF and SSPO V.
The shaded cells show the condition where user software did not properly clear the overflow condition. Flag
bit BF is cleared by reading the SSPBUF register while
bit SSPOV is cleared through software.
The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and
low for proper operation. The high and low times of the
2
I
C specification as well as the requirement of the SSP
module is shown in timing parameter #100 and parameter #101.
11.5.1.1ADDRESSING
Once the SSP module has been enabled, it waits for a
START condition to occur. Following the START condition, the 8-bits are shifted into the SSPSR register. All
incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the
clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is
compared to the value of the SSPADD register. The

address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth
clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF
and SSPOV bits are clear, the following events occur:
a) The SSPSR register value is loaded into the
SSPBUF register.
b) The buffer full bit, BF is set.
c) An A
d) SSP interrupt flag bit, SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set
In 10-bit address mode, two address bytes need to be
received by the slav e (Figure 11-16). The fiv e Most Significant bits (MSbs) of the first address byte specify if
this is a 10-bit address. Bit R/W
specify a write so the slave device will receive the second address byte. For a 10-bit address the first byte
would equal ‘1111 0 A9 A8 0’, where A9 and A8 are
the two MSbs of the address. The sequence of events
for 10-bit address is as follows, with steps 7- 9 for
slave-transmitter:

11.5.2MASTER MODE
Master mode of operation is supported in firmware
using interrupt generation on the detection of the
START and STOP conditions. The STOP (P) and
START (S) bits are cleared from a reset or when the
SSP module is disabled. The STOP (P) and START (S)
bits will toggle based on the START and STOP conditions. Control of the I
2
C bus may be taken when the P
bit is set, or the bus is idle and both the S and P bits are
clear.
In master mode the SCL and SDA lines are manipulated by clearing the corresponding TRISC<4:3> bit(s).
The output level is always low, irrespective of the
value(s) in PORTC<4:3>. So when transmitting data, a
'1' data bit must have the TRISC<4> bit set (input) and
a '0' data bit must have the TRISC<4> bit cleared (output). The same scenario is true for the SCL line with the
TRISC<3> bit.
The following events will cause SSP Interrupt Flag bit,
SSPIF, to be set (SSP Interrupt if enabled):
• START condition
• STOP condition
• Data transfer byte transmitted/received
Master mode of operation can be done with either the
slave mode idle (SSPM3:SSPM0 = 1011) or with the
slave active. When both master and slave modes are
enabled, the software needs to differentiate the
source(s) of the interrupt.
11.5.3MULTI-MASTER MODE
In multi-master mode, the interrupt generation on the
detection of the START and STOP conditions allows
the determination of when the bus is free. The STOP
(P) and START (S) bits are cleared from a reset or
when the SSP module is disabled. The STOP (P) and
START (S) bits will toggle based on the START and
STOP conditions. Control of the I
2
C bus may be taken
when bit P (SSPSTAT<4>) is set, or the bus is idle and
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.
In multi-master operation, the SDA line must be monitored to see if the signal level is the expected output
level. This check only needs to be done when a high
level is output. If a high level is expected and a low lev el
is present, the device needs to release the SDA and
SCL lines (set TRISC<4:3>). There are two stages
where this arbitration can be lost, these are:
• Address T r ansfer
• Data T r ansfer
When the slave logic is enabled, the slave continues to
receive. If arbitration was lost during the address transfer stage, communication to the device may be in
progress. If addressed an A
CK pulse will be generated.
If arbitration was lost during the data transfer stage, the
device will need to re-transfer the data at a later time.
TABLE 11-5:REGISTERS ASSOCIATED WITH I2C OPERATION
The Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver
Transmitter (USART) module is one of the two serial
I/O modules. (USART is also known as a Serial Communications Interface or SCI). The USART can be configured as a full duplex asynchronous system that can
communicate with peripheral devices such as CRT terminals and personal computers, or it can be configured
as a half duplex synchronous system that can communicate 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)
Bit SPEN (RCSTA<7>), and bits TRISC<7:6>, have to
be set in order to configure pins RC6/TX/CK and RC7/
RX/DT as the Universal Synchronous Asynchronous
Receiver Transmitter.
