The PIC12F510/16F506 devices from Microchip
T ec hnology are lo w-cost, hig h-performance , 8-bit, fullystatic, Flash-based CMOS microcontrollers. They
employ a RISC architecture with only 33 single-word/
single-cycle instructions. All instructions are singlecycle except for program branches, which take two
cycles. The PIC12F510/16F506 devices deliver
performance in an o rder of m agnitu de hig her than their
competitors in the same pric e category . The 12-bi t wide
instructions are highly symmetrical, resulting in a
typical 2:1 code compression over other 8-bit
microcontrollers in i ts class . The easy-to-use a nd easyto-remember instr ucti on se t reduc es de velop ment time
significantly.
The PIC12F510/16F506 products are equipped with
special features that reduce system cost and power
requirements. The Power-on Reset (POR) and Device
Reset Timer (DRT) eliminate the need for external
reset circuitry. There are four oscillator configurations
to choose from (six on the PIC16F506), including
INTOSC Internal Oscillator mode and the power-saving
LP (Low-pow er) Osci llator mode. Po wer-sa ving Sle ep
mode, Watchdog Timer and code protection features
improve system cost, power and reliability.
The PIC12F510/16 F506 de vi ce s a ll ow th e c us tom er to
take full advantage of Microchip’s price leadership in
Flash programmable microcontrollers, while benefiting
from the Flash programmable flexibi lit y.
The PIC12F510/16F506 products are supported by a
full-featured macr o assembl er , a s oftware simulator, an
in-circuit emulator, a ‘C’ compiler, a low-cost
development programmer and a full featured programmer. All the tools are supported on IBM
compatible machines.

1.1Applications
The PIC12F510/16F506 devices fit in applications
ranging from personal care appliances and security
systems to low-power remote transmitters/receivers.
The Flash technology makes customizing application
programs (transmitter codes, appliance settings,
receiver frequencies, etc.) extremely fast and convenient. The small footpri nt p ackag es, for t hrough h ole or
surface mounting, make these microcontrollers perfect
for applications with space limitations. Low-cost, lowpower, high-performance, ease-of-use and I/O flexibility make the PIC12F510/16F506 devices very versatile, even in areas where no microcontroller use has
been considered b efore (e.g., tim er functions, lo gic and
PLDs in larger system s and co processor applications ).

2.1Quick Turn Programming (QTP)
Devices
Microchip offers a QTP programming service for
factory production orders. This service is made
available for users who choose not to program
medium-to-high quantity units and whose code
patterns have stabilized. The devices are identical to
the Flash devices, bu t w ith all Fla sh l oc ati ons and fus e
options already programmed by the factory. Certain
code and prototype verification procedures do apply
before production shipments are available. Please
contact your loc al Microchi p Techn ology sales office for
more details.
2.2Serialized Quick Turn
Programming
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.
The high performance of the PIC12F510/16F506
devices can be attributed to a number of architectural
features commonly found in RISC microprocessors.
The PIC12F510/16F506 devices use a Harvard architecture in which program and data are accessed on
separate buses. This improves bandwidth over traditional von Neumann architectures where program and
data are fetch ed on the sa me bu s. Separating progra m
and data memor y further allow s instructions to be sized
differently than the 8-bit wide data word. Instruction
opcodes are 12 bit s wide, making it p ossible to have all
single-word instructions. A 12-bit wide program memory access bus fetches a 12-bit instruction in a single
cycle. A two-stage pipeline overlaps fetch and execution of instructions. Consequently, all instructions (33)
execute in a si ngle cycle (200 ns @ 20 MHz, 1 μs @
4 MHz) except for program branches.
Table 3-1 lists program memory (Flash) and data
memory (RAM) for the PIC12F510/16F506 devices.

The PIC12F510/16F506 devices can directly or indirectly address its register files and data memory. All
Special Function Registers (SFR), including the PC,
are mapped in the data memory. The PIC12F510/
16F506 devices have a highly orthogonal (symmetrical) instruc tion set that makes it possible to carry ou t
any operat ion, on any regis ter, using any addressing
mode. This symmetrical nature and lack of “special
optimal situations” make programming with the
PIC12F510/16F506 devices simple, yet efficient. In
addition, the learning curve is reduced significantly.
The PIC12F510/16F506 devices contain an 8-bit ALU
and working register. The ALU is a general purpose
arithmetic unit. It performs arithmetic and Boolean
functions between d ata in the worki ng register and an y
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, one
operand is typica lly t he W (working) regis ter. T he oth er
operand is either a file register or an immediate
constant. In sing le-operand instr uctions, the operan d is
either the W register or a file register.
The W register is an 8-bit workin g 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 ST ATUS register . The C and DC bit s
operate as a borrow
tively, in subtraction. See the SUBWF and ADDWF
instructions for examples.
A simplified block diagram is shown in Figure 3-1 for
PIC12F510 with the corresponding device pins described
in Table 3-2. A simplified block diagram for PIC16F506 is
shown in Figure 3-2 with the corresponding device pins
described in T able 3-3.
The clock input (OSC1/CLKIN pin) is internally divided
by four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature
clocks, namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the PC
is incremented every Q1 and the instruction is fetched
from program memory and latched into the instruction
register in Q4. It is decoded and executed during the
following Q1 through Q4. The clocks and instruction
execution flow is s hown in Figure3-3 and Example 3-1.

3.2Instruction Flow/Pipelining
An instruction cy cle consists of four Q cycles (Q1, Q2,
Q3 and Q4). The instruction fetch and execute are
pipelined such that fetch takes one instruction cycle,
while decode and execute take another instruction
cycle. However, due to the pipelining, each instruction
effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction
causes the PC to change (e.g ., GOTO), t hen two c yc le s
are required to complete the ins tructi on (Exampl e 3-1).
A fetch cycle begins with the PC incrementing in Q1.
In the execution cy cle, the fetched instruction i s latched
into the Instruction Register (IR) in cycle Q1. This
instruction is then decoded and executed during the
Q2, Q3 and Q4 c ycles. Dat a m emory is read during Q2
(operand read) and written during Q4 (destination
write).

All instructions are si ngle cycle, except for any program bra nches. These tak e two cycles, since th e fetch instruction
is “flushed” from the pipeline, while the new instruction is being fetched and then executed.
The PIC12F510/16F506 memories are organized into
program memory and data memory. For devices with
more than 512 bytes of program memory, a paging
scheme is used. Program memory pages are accessed
using one ST A TUS regi ster bit. For the PIC12F510 and
PIC16F506, with data memory register files of more
than 32 registers, a banking scheme is used. Data
memory banks are accessed using the File Select
Register (FSR).
4.1Program Memory Organization for
the PIC12F510/16F506
The PIC12F510/16F506 devices have a 10-bit
Program Counter (PC) c apable o f addressing a 2K x 12
program memory space.
Only the first 1K x 12 (0000 h-03FFh) are physically
implemented (see Figure 4- 1). Accessing a location
above these boundaries will cause a wraparound
within the 1K x 12 space. The effective Reset vector
is a 0000h (see Figure 4-1). Location 03FFh contains
the internal clock oscillator calibration value. This
value should never be overwritten.

Data memory is composed of registers or bytes of
RAM. Therefore, d ata memory for a device is spec ifie d
by its register file. The register file is divided into two
functional groups: Special Function Registers (SFR)
and General Purpose Registers (GPR).
The Special Function Registers include the TMR0
register, the Program Counter (PCL), the STATUS
register, the I/O registers (ports) and the File Select
Register (FSR). In addition, Specia l Function Registe rs
are used to control the I/O port configuration and
prescaler options.
The General Purpose Registers are used for data and
control information under com mand of the instructions .
For the PIC12F510, the register file is composed of 10
Special Function Registers, 6 General Purpose
Registers and 32 General Purpose Registers acces sed
by banking (see Figure 4-5).
For the PIC16F506, the register file is composed of 13
Special Function Registers, 3 General Purpose
Registers and 64 General Purpose Registers acces sed
by banking (see Figure 4-6).
4.2.1GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER
FILE
The General Pu rpose Registe r file is accessed either
directly or indirectly through the File Select Register
(FSR). See Section 4.8 “Indirect Data Addressing:
The Special Function Registers (SFRs) are registers
used by the CPU and per ipheral functio ns to con trol the
operation of the device (see Table 4-1).
The Special Function Registers can be classified into
two sets. The Special Function Registers associated
with the “core” functions are described in this section.
Those related to the operation of the peripheral
features are described in the section for each
peripheral feature.

This register contains the arithmetic status of the ALU,

The STATUS register can be the destination for any
instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS

As a program instruction is executed, the Program
Counter (PC) will contain the address of the next
program instruction to be executed. The PC value is
increased by one every instruction cycle, unless an
instruction changes the PC.
For a GOTO instruction, bits 8:0 of the PC are provided
by the GOTO instruction word. The Program Counter
(PCL) is mapped to PC<7:0>. Bit 5 of the STATUS
register provides page information to bit 9 of the PC
(Figure4-4).
For a CALL instruction, or any instruction where the
PCL is the destination, bits 7:0 of the PC again are
provided by the instruction word. However, PC<8>
does not come from the instruct ion word, but is alway s
cleared (Figure 4-4).
Instructions where t he PCL is the des tinati on or modif y
PCL instructi ons include MOVWF PC, ADDWF PC and
BSF PC, 5.
Note:Because PC<8> is cleared in the CALL
instruction or any modify PCL instruction,
all subroutine calls or computed jumps are
limited to the first 256 locations of any
program me mory page (512 words long).

4.6.1EFFECTS OF RESET
The PC is set upon a Reset, which means that the PC
addresses the last location in the last page (i.e., the
oscillator calibration instruction). After executing
MOVLW XX, the PC will roll over to location 00h and
begin executing user code.
The STATUS register page preselect bits are cleared
upon a Reset, which m eans that p age0 is preselected.
Therefore, upon a Reset, a GOTO instruction will
automatically c ause the program t o jump to page0 until
the value of the page bits is altered.
4.7Stack
The PIC12F510/16F 506 de vi ce s h av e a 2-d ee p, 12-bit
wide hardware PUSH/POP stack.
A CALL instru ction will PUSH the curre nt value of S t ack
1 into Stack 2 and then PUSH the current PC value,
incremented by one, into Stack Level 1. If more than
two sequential CALLs are executed, only the most
recent two return addresses are stored.
A RETLW instruction will POP the contents of Stack
Level 1 into the PC and then copy Stack Level 2
contents into S t ack Level 1. If more tha n two sequentia l
RETLWs are execute d, the stack will be fi lled with the
address previously stored in Stack Level 2.
Note 1: The W register will be loaded with the lit-
eral value spec ified in the ins truction. This
is particularly useful for the implementation of data look-up tables within the
program memory.
2: There are no Status bits to indicate stack
overflows or stack underflow conditions.
3: There are no instruction mnemonics
called PUSH or POP. These are actions
that occur from the e xecution of the CALL
and RETLW instructions.
The INDF register is not a physi cal register. Addressing
INDF actually address es the reg ister whos e addres s is
contained in the FSR regis ter (FSR is a pointer). This is
indirect addressing.

• Register file 07 contains the value 10h
• Register file 08 contains the value 0Ah
• Load the value 07 into the FSR register
• A read of the INDF regi ster will return the value
of 10h
• Increment the value of the FSR register by one
(FSR = 08)
• A read of the INDR register now will return the
value of 0Ah.
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).
A simple program to clear RAM locations 10h-1Fh
using indirect addres sing is shown in Example 4-1.

As with any other register, the I/O register(s) can be
written and read under pro gram contro l. However, read
instructions (e.g., MOVF PORTB, W) always read th e I/O
pins independent of the pin’s Input/Output modes. On
Reset, all I/O ports are defined as input (inputs are at
high-impedance) since the I/O control registers are all
set.
Note:On the PIC12F510, I/O PORTB is refer-
enced as GPIO. On the PIC16F506, I/O
PORTB is referenced as PORTB.
5.1PORTB/GPIO
PORTB/GPIO is an 8-bit I/O register. Only the loworder 6 bits a re used ( RB/GP<5: 0>). Bits 7 and 6 are
unimplemented and read as ‘0’s. Please note that RB3/
GP3 is an input only pin. The Configuration Word can
set several I/O ’ s t o a lte rnate fu nc tio ns. When acting as
alternate function s, the pins wil l read as ‘0’ during a port
read. Pins RB0/GP0, RB1/GP1, RB3/GP3 and RB4
(PIC16F506 only) can be configured with weak pull-up
and also for wake-up on change. The wake-up on
change and weak pull-up functions are not pin selectable. If RB3/GP3/MCLR
pull-up is always on and wake-u p on change for this pin

is configured as MCLR, weak
5.4I/O Interfacing
The equivalent circuit for an I/O port pin is shown in
Figure 5-1. All port pins, except RB3/GP3 which is
input only, may be used for both input and output operations. For input operations, these ports are non-latching. Any input must be present until read by an input
instruction (e.g., MOVF PORTB, W). The outputs are
latched and remain unchanged until the output latch is
rewritten. To use a port pin as output, the corresponding directio n contro l bit in TR IS must be c leared (= 0).
For use as an input, the corresponding TRIS bit must
be set. Any I/O pin (except RB3/GP3) can be
programmed individually as input or output.

Note:A read of the port reads the pins, not the
output data latches. That is, if an output
driver on a pin is enabled and driven high
but the external system is holding it low, a
read of the port will indicate that the pin is
low.

TA BLE 5-7:REQUIREMENTS FOR DIGITA L PIN OPERATION (PIC16F506 PORTC)
Some instructions operate internally as read followed
by write operations. For example, the BCF and BSF
instructions read the entire port into the CPU, execute
the bit operation and re-write the result. Caution must
be used when these inst ructions ar e applied to a port
where one or more pins are used as input/ outputs. For
example, a BSF operation on bit 5 of PORTB/ GPIO wil l
cause all eight bit s of PORTB/GPIO to be read into the
CPU, bit 5 to be set a nd th e P ORTB /G P IO val u e to be
written to the output latches. If another bit of PORTB/
GPIO is used as a bidirectional I/O pi n (say bit ‘0’) and
it is defined as an input at this time, the input signal
present on the pin itself wo uld be read into the CPU and
rewritten to the data latch o f this p articular pin , overwriting the previous c ontent. As l ong as the p in stay s in the
Input mode, no problem occurs. However, if bit ‘0’ is
switched into Output mode later on, the content of the
data latch m ay now be unknown.
Example 5-1 shows the effect of two sequential
Read-Modify-Write instructions (e.g., BCF, BSF, etc.)
on an I/O port.
A pin actively outputting a high or a low 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 out put current s may damag e
the chip.
be ‘--00 pppp’. The 2nd BCF caused RB5 to
be latched as the pin value (High).
5.5.2SUCCESSIVE OPERATIONS ON I/O
PORTS
The actual write to a n I/O port happen s at the e nd of an
instructio n cycle. Where as for readi ng, the data mu st
be valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle
(Figure 5-14). 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
allow the pin voltage to stabilize (load dependent)
before the next instruction causes the file to be read
into the CPU. Otherwise, the prev ious 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.

Figure 6-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer0
module.
Timer mode is selected by clearing the T0CS bit
(OPTION<5>). In Timer mode, the Ti mer0 module will
increment every ins tru cti on cy cl e (w i tho ut p r es ca ler). If
TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited for
the following two cycles (Figure 6-2 and Figure 6-3).
The user can work around this by writing an adjusted
value to the TMR0 register.
There are two types of Counter mo de. The first Counter

connection between the comparator and the Timer0.
The second way is selected by setting the T0CS bit

and clearing the COUTEN
bit (CM1CON0<6>). This
bit (CM1CON0)
allows the output of t he compa rator onto the T0 CKI pin,
while keeping the T0CKI input active. Therefore, any
comparator change on the COUT pin is fed back into
the T0CKI input. The T0SE bit (OPTION<4>) determines the source edge. Clearing the T0SE bit selects
the rising edge. Res trictio ns on t he exte rnal c lock inp ut

The prescaler may be used by either the Timer0
module or the Watchdog Timer, but not both. The
prescaler assignment is controlled in software by the
control bit PSA (OPTION<3>). Cleari ng the PSA bit will
assign the prescaler to Timer0. The prescaler is not
readable or writabl e. When the prescaler is assi gned to
the Timer0 module, prescale values of 1:2, 1:4,...,
1:256 are selectable. Section 6.2 “Prescaler” details
the operation of the prescaler.
A summary of registers associated with the Timer0
module is found in Table 6-1.

When an external clock input i s used for T i mer0, it must
meet certain requ ir e me nts. The ex t er na l cl oc k req u ir ement is due to internal phas e clock (TOSC) synchroniza-
tion. Also, there is a dela y in the ac tual inc remen ting of
Timer0 after synchronization.
When a prescaler is used, the external clock input is
divided by the asynchronous ripple counter-type
prescaler, so that t he presc aler out put is symmetric al.
For the external clock to meet the sampling requirement, the ripple counter must be taken into ac count.

SYNCHRONIZATION
When no pr escal er is us ed, t he ex ternal clock inpu t is
the same as the prescaler outp ut. Th e synchronization
of an external clock with the internal phase clocks is
accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the
Q2 and Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks
(Figure 6-4). Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI or the
comparator output to be high for at least 2T

6.1.2TIMER0 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 6-4 shows the
delay from the external clock edge to the timer
incrementing.

6.2Prescaler
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer (WDT), respectiv ely (see Section FIGURE 10-12: “Watchdog Timer Block Diagram”). For simplicity, this counter is being referred to as “prescaler”
throughout this data sheet.
Note:The prescaler may be used by either the

Thus, a prescaler assignment for the

The PSA and PS<2:0> bits (OPTION<3:0>) determine
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 WDT. The prescaler is
neither readable nor writable. On a Reset, the
prescaler contains all ‘0’s.
The prescaler assignment is fully under software
control (i. e., it can b e changed “ on-the- fly” dur ing program execution). To avoid an unintended de vice Rese t,
the following instruction sequence (Example6-1) must
be executed when changing the prescaler assignment
To change prescaler from the WDT to the Timer0

7.2Comparator Reference
An internal reference signa l may be used depend ing on
the comparator operatin g mode. T he analo g signal th at
is present at V in- is c ompa red to the signal a t V in+, and
the digital outpu t of the com parator is adjusted accordingly (Figure 7-3). Please see Section 8.0 “Compara-tor Voltage Reference Module” for internal reference
specifications.
7.3Comparator Response Time
Response time is the minimum time after selecting a
new reference voltage or input source before the comparator output is to ha ve a valid level. If the co mpara tor
inputs are changed, a delay must be used to allow the
comparator to settle to its new state. Please see
Table 13-1 for comparator response time
specifications.
7.4Comparator Output
The comparator output is read through the CM1CON0
or CM2CON0 register. This bit is read-only. The
comparator output may also be used internally, see
Figure 7-3.
7.6Comparator Operation During
Sleep
When the compa rator is activ e and the devi ce is place d
in Sleep mode, the comparator remains active. While
the comparator is powered-up, higher Sleep currents,
shown in the power-down current specification, will
occur. To minimize power consumption while in Sleep
mode, turn off the comparator before entering Sleep.
7.7Effects of Reset
A POR Reset forces the CM2CON0 register to its
Reset state. This forces the Comparator module to be
in the comparator Reset mode. This ensures that all
potential inputs are analog inputs. Device current is
minimized when analog inputs are present at Reset
time. The comp arat or w il l be powe r ed-d own d uri ng th e
Reset interval.
7.8Analog Input Connection
Considerations
A simplified circuit for an analog input is shown in
Figure 7-4. Since the analog pins are connected to a
digital output, they have reverse biased diodes to VDD
and VSS. The analog input, th erefore, must be b etween
V
SS and VDD. If the input voltage deviates from this
range by more than 0.6V in either direction, one of the
diodes is forward biased and a latch-up may occur. A
maximum source impedance of 10 kΩ is recommended for the analog sources. Any external component connected to an analog input pin, such as a
capacitor or a Zener diode, should have very little
leakage current.
The Comparator Voltage Reference module also
allows the selection of an internally generated voltage
reference for one of the comparator inputs. The
VRCON register (Register 8-1) controls the Voltage
Reference module shown in Figure 8-1.
8.1Configuring The Voltage
Reference
The voltage reference can output 32 distinct voltage
levels; 16 in a high range and 16 in a low range.
Equation 8-1 determines the output voltages:
EQUATION 8-1:
VRR = 1 (low range): CVREF = (VR3:VR0/24) x VDD
VRR = 0 (high range):
CV
REF = (VDD/4) + (VR3:VR0 x VDD/32)
8.2Voltage Reference Accuracy/Error
The full range of VSS to VDD cannot be realized due to
construction of the module. The transistors on the top
and bottom of the resistor ladder network (Figure 8-1)

The A/D Converter allows conversion of an analog
signal into an 8-bit digital signal.
9.1Clock Divisors
The ADC has 4 clock source settings ADCS<1:0>.
There are 3 divisor values 32, 16 and 8. The fourth setting is INTOSC with a divisor of 4. These settings will
allow a proper conv ersion when usin g an external os cillator at speeds from 20 MHz to 350 kHz. Using an
external oscillator at a frequency below 350 kHz
requires the ADC oscillator setting to be INTOSC/8 for
valid ADC results.
The ADC requires 13 T
conversion. The div isor values do no t affect the nu mber
of TAD periods required to perform a conversion. The
divisor values determine the length of the T
When the ADCS<1:0> bits are changed while an ADC
conversion is in pro cess, the new ADC c lock source will
not be selected un til the next co nversion is st arted. This
clock source selection will be lost when the device
enters Sleep.
Note:The ADC clock is derived from the instruc-
tion clock. The ADCS divisors are then
applied to create the ADC clock
9.1.1VOLTAGE REFERENCE
There is no external vo ltage reference for the ADC. The
ADC reference voltage will always be V
9.1.2ANALOG MODE SELECTION
The ANS<1:0> bits are used to configure pins for analog input. Upon any Reset ANS<1:0> defaults to 11.
This configures pins AN0, AN1 and AN2 as analog
inputs. The comparator output C1OUT will override
AN2 as an input if the comparator output is enabled.
Pins configured as analog inputs are not available for
digital output. Users should not change the ANS bits
while a conversion is in process. ANS bits are active

Note:It is the users responsibility to ensure that
use of the ADC and comparator simultaneously on the same pin, does not
adversely affect the signal being
monitored or adversely effect device
operation.
When the CHS<1:0> bits are changed during an ADC
conversion, the new channel will not be selected until
the current conversion is completed. This allows the
current conversion to complete with valid results. All
channel selection information will be lost when the
device enters Sleep.

9.1.3ADC CHANNEL SELECTION
The CHS bits are used to select the analog channel to
be sampled by th e ADC. The CHS<1:0> bits ca n be
changed at any time without adversely effecting a conversion. To acquire an analog signal the CHS<1:0>
selection must match one of the pin(s) selected by the
ANS<1:0> bits. When the ADC is on (ADON = 1) and a
channel is selected that is also being used by the
comparator, then both the comparato r and the ADC will
see the analog voltage on the pin.
This ADC does not have a dedicated ADC clock, and
therefore, no conversion in Sleep is possible. If a
conversion is underway and a Sleep command is
executed, the GO/DONE
This will stop any conversion in process and powerdown the ADC module to conserve power. D ue to the
nature of the conv ersion process, the ADRES may contain a partial conversion. At least 1 bit must have been
converted prior t o Sleep to ha ve partia l conversi on data
in ADRES. The ADCS and CHS bits are reset to their
default condition; ANS<1: 0> = 11 and CHS<1: 0> = 11.

9.1.6ANALOG CONVERSION RESULT
REGISTER
The ADRES register contains the results of the last
conversion. These results are present during the sampling period of the next analog conversion process.
After the sampling period is over, ADRES is cleared
(= 0). A ‘leading one’ is then right shifted into the
ADRES to serve as an internal conversion complete
bit. As each bit weight, starting with the MSB, is converted, the leading one is shifted right and the converted bit is stuffed into ADRES. After a total of 9 right
shifts of the ‘l eading on e’ have t aken pl ace, the conversion is complete ; the ‘ leadin g one ’ has been shifte d out

What sets a mic rocontroller apart from other processors are special circuits that deal with the n eeds of rea ltime applications. The PIC12F510/16F506
microcontrollers have a host of such features intended
to maximize syst em reliability, minimize cost through
elimination of external components, provide powersaving operating modes and offer code protection.
These features are:
• Oscillator Selection
• Reset:
- Power-on Reset (P OR)
- Device Reset Timer (DR T)
- Wake-up from Sleep on Pin Change
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)
• Sleep
• Code Protection
• ID Locations
• In-Circuit Serial Programming™ (ICSP™)
•Clock Out
The PIC12F510/16F506 devices have a Watchdog
Timer, which can be shut off only thr ough Configur ation

reliability . If using HS (PIC16F506), XT or LP sel ectable

10.2.3EXTERNAL CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
CIRCUIT
Either a prepackaged oscillator or a simple oscillator
circuit with TTL gates can be used as an external
crystal oscillator circuit. Prepackaged oscillators
provide a wide operating range and better stability. A
well-designed cry stal oscillat or will provid e good performance with TTL gates. Two types of crystal oscillator
circuits can b e used: one with parallel resonance or one
with series resonance.
Figure 10-3 shows implementation of a parallel resonant oscillator circu it. Th e circu it is desi gned to u se the
fundamental frequency of the crystal. The 74AS04
inverter performs the 180-degree phase shift that a
parallel oscill ator requires. The 4 .7 kΩ resistor provides
the negative feedback for stability. The 10 kΩ potentiometers bias the 74AS04 in the linear region. This
circuit could be used for external oscillator designs.

10.2.4EXTERNAL RC OSCILLATOR
For timing insensitive applications, the EXTRC device
option offers ad ditional cos t savings. Th e EXTRC oscillator frequency is a function of the supply voltage, the
resistor (R
operating temperatu re. In a ddition to this, the oscillator
frequency will vary from unit to unit due to normal process paramete r variatio n. Further more, the d ifference
in lead frame capacitance between package types will
also affect the oscillation frequency, especially for low
EXT values. The user also needs to take into account
C
variation due to tolerance of external R and C
components used.
Figure 10-5 shows how the R/C combination is
connected to the PIC12F510/16F506 devices. For
EXT values below 5.0 kΩ, the oscillator op eration may
R
become unstable or stop completely. For very high
REXT values (e.g., 1 MΩ), the oscillator becomes
sensitive to noise, humidity and leakage. Thus, we
recommend keeping REXT between 5.0 kΩ and
100 kΩ.
Although the oscillator will operate with no external
capacitor (C
EXT = 0 pF), we recommend using values
above 20 pF for noise and stability reasons. With no
capacitanc e or small external capacitance, the oscillation frequency ca n vary dramatically due to changes in
external capacit a nce s, such as PC B trace ca pacitance
or package lead frame capacitance.
Section 13.0 “Electrical Characteristics”, shows RC
frequency variation from part-to-part due to normal
process variation. The variation is larger for larger values of R (since leakage current variation will affect RC
frequency more for large R) and for smal ler values of C
(since variation of input capacitance will affect RC
frequency more).
Also, see the Electrical Specifications section for
variation of oscillator frequency due to V

to operating temperature for given R, C and V

For applications where a clock is already available
elsewhere, users may directly drive the PIC12F510/

In addition, a ca librati on in structi on is progra mmed into
the last address of me mory, which contains the calib ration value for the internal RC oscillator. This location is
always uncode protected, regardless of the code-protect settings. This valu e is programmed as a MOVLW XX
instruction where XX is the calibration value, and is
placed at the Re set v ector. This will load the W reg ister
with the calibration value upon Reset and the PC will
then roll over to the users program at address 0x000.
The user then has the op tion of writing the value to the
OSCCAL Register (05h) or ignoring it.
OSCCAL, when writte n to with the cali bration value, will
“trim” the internal oscillator to remove process variation
from the oscillator frequency.
Note:Erasing the device will also erase the pre-
programmed internal calibration value for
the internal oscillator. The calibration
value must be read prior to erasing the
part so it can be reprogramm ed correctly
later.
For the PIC12F510/16F506 devices, only bits <7:1> of
OSCCAL are implemented. Bits CAL6-CAL0 are used
for calibration. Adjusting CAL6-CAL0 from ‘0000000’
to ‘1111111’ changes the clock speed. See
Register 4-3 for more information.
Note:The 0 bit of OSCCAL is unimplemented
and should be written as ‘0’ when modifying OSCCAL for compatibility with future
devices.
The device differentiates between various kinds of
Reset:
• Power-on Reset (POR)
•MCLR
•MCLR
• WDT time-out Reset during normal operation
• WDT time-out Reset during Sleep
• Wake-up from Sleep on pin change
• Wake-up from Sleep on comparator change

The PIC12F510/16F506 devices incorporate an onchip Power-on Reset (POR) circuitry, which provides

When the devices start normal operation (exit the

A simplified block diagram of the on-chip Power-on

The Power-on Reset circuit and the Device Reset

Reset latch is set and the DRT is reset. The DRT timer
begins counting once it detects MCLR
to be high. After
the time-out period, it will reset the Reset latch and thus
end the on-chip Reset signal.

Note:When the devices start normal operation
(exit the Reset condition), device operating parameters (voltage, frequency, temperature, etc.) must be met to ensure
operation. If these conditions are not met,
the device must be held in Reset until the
operating conditions are met.
For additional information, refer to Application Notes
AN522 “Power-Up Considerations” (DS00522) and
AN607 “Power-up Trouble Shooting” (DS00607).
On the PIC12F510/16F506 devices, the DRT runs any
time the device is powered up. DRT runs from Reset
and varies based on oscillator s election an d Reset typ e
(see Table 10-6).
The DRT operates on an internal RC oscillator. The
processor is kept in Reset as long as the D RT is active.
The DRT delay allows V
and for the oscillator to stabilize.
Oscillator circuit s, based on cry stals or cerami c resonators, require a certain time after power-up to establish
a stable osc illation. The on -chip DRT k eeps the de vices

has reached a logic high (VIH MCLR) level.
MCLR
Programming (GP3/RB3)/MCLR
using an external RC network connected to the MCLR
input is not required in most case s. This allo ws savings
in cost-sensi tive and/or space restr icted applications,
as well as allowing the use of the (GP3/RB3)/MCLR/
PP pin as a general purpose input.

applications using the WDT to wake from Sleep mode
automatically.

The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a free running on-chip
RC oscillator that does not require any external
components. This RC oscillator is separate from the
external RC oscillator of the (GP5/RB5)/OSC1/CLKIN
pin and the interna l 4/8 MHz oscillator. Th is means that
the WDT will run even if the main processor clock has
been stopped, for example, by execution of a SLEEP
instruction. During normal operation or Sleep, a WDT

postscaler , if as signed to the WDT, and prevents it from
timing out and generating a device Reset.
The SLEEP instruction resets the WDT and the
postscaler, if assigned to the WDT. This gives the
maximum Sleep time before a WDT wake-up Reset.

10.8Reset on Brown-out
A brown-out is a condition where device power (VDD)
dips below its minimum value, but no t to zero, and the n
recovers. The device should be reset in the event of a
brown-out.
To reset PIC12F510/16F506 devices when a brownout occurs, external brown-out protection circuits may
be built, as shown in Figure 10-13 and Figure 10-14.

A device may be powered down (Sleep) and later
powered up (wake-up from Sleep).
10.9.1SLEEP
The Power-Down mode is entered by executing a
SLEEP instruction.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but
keeps running, the TO
bit (STATUS<3>) is cleared and the oscillator driver is
turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had
before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving
high, driving low or high-impedance).
Note:A device Reset generated by a WDT
time-will not drive the MCLR
For lowest current consumption while powered down,
the T0CKI input should be at V
(GP3/RB3)/MCLR
level if MCLR
is enabled.
10.9.2WAKE-UP FR OM SLEEP
The device can wake -up from Sleep through one of th e
following events:
1.An external Reset input on (GP3/RB3)/MCLR/
PP pin when configured as MCLR.
V
2.A Watchdog Timer Time-out Reset (if WDT was
enabled).
3.A change-on-input pin GP0/RB0, GP1/RB1,
GP3/RB3 or RB4 when wake-up on change is
enabled.
4.A change in the comparator ouput bits, C1OUT
and C2OUT (if co mparat or wake-u p is enable d).
These events cause a device Reset. The TO
CWUF and GPWUF/RBWU F bits can be used to determine the cause of device Reset. The TO bit is cleared
if a WDT time-ou t occurre d (and cau sed wake -up). The
PD bit, which is set on power-up, is cleared when
SLEEP is invoked. The CWUF bit i ndica tes a chang e in
comparator output state while the device wa s i n Sleep.
The GPWUF/RB WUF bit indicates a cha nge in state

Protection
If the code protecti on bit has not been p rogrammed, the
on-chip program memory can be read out for
verification purposes.
The first 64 locations and the last location (OSCCAL)
can be read, regardless of the code protection bit
setting.
The last memory loca tion can be read reg ardless of the
code protection bit setting on the PIC12F510/16F506
devices.
10.11 ID Locations
Four memory locations are designated as ID locations
where the user can store checksum or other code
identification numbers. These locations are not
accessible during normal execution, but are readable
and writable during Program/ Verify.
Use only the lower 4 bit s of the ID locati ons and alw ays
program the upper 8 bits as ‘0’s.
(1)
.
Note:Caution: Right before entering Sleep,
read the input pins. When in Sleep, wakeup occurs when the values at the pins
change from the state they were in at the
last reading. If a wake-up on change
occurs and the pi ns are not read before reentering Sleep, a wake-up will occur
immediately even if no pins change while
in Sleep mode.
The PIC12F510/16F506 microcontrollers can be
serially programme d while in the en d application circuit.
This is simply done with two lines for clock and data,
and three other lines for power, ground and the
programming voltage. This allows customers to manufacture boards with unprogrammed devices and then
program the microcontroller just before shipping the
product. This a lso al lows the m ost rec ent f irmw are, o r
a custom firmware, to be programmed.
The devices are placed into a Program/Verify mode by
holding the G P1/RB1 and GP0/RB0 p ins low whil e raising the MCLR
ming specification). GP1/RB1 becomes the
programming clock and GP0/RB0 becomes the
programmi ng data. Both GP1/R B1 and GP0/RB0 ar e
Schmitt Trigger inputs in this mode.
After Reset, a 6-bit command is supplied to the device.
Depending on the command and if the command was a
Load or a Read, 14 bits of program data are then supplied to or from the device. For co mplete det ails of serial
programming, please refer to the PIC12F510/16F506
Programming Specifications.
A typical In-Circuit Serial Programming connection is
shown in Figure 10-16.
The PIC16 instruction set is highly orthogonal and is
comprised of three basic categories.
• Byte-oriented operations
• Bit-oriented operations
• Literal and control operations
Each PIC16 instruction is a 12-bit word divided into an
opcode, which specifies the instruction type, and one
or more operands which further specify the operation
of the instruction. The formats for each of the categories is presented in Figure 11-1, while the various
opcode fields are summarized in Table 11-1.
For byte-oriented instructions, ‘f’ represents a file
register designator and ‘d’ represents a destination
designator. The file register designator specifies which
file register is to be used by the instruction.
The destination des ignator specifies w here the result of
the operation is to be placed. If ‘d’ is ‘0’, the result is
placed in the W register. If ‘d’ is ‘1’, the result is placed
in the file register specified in the instruction.
For bit-oriented instru ctions, ‘b’ represents a bit field
designator which selects the number of the bits
affected by the operation, while ‘f’ represents the
number of the file in which the bit is located.
For literal and control operations, ‘k’ represents an
8 or 9-bit constant or literal value.
All instructions are executed within a single instruction
cycle, unless a conditional test is true or the program
counter is changed as a result of an instruction. In this
case, the execution takes two instruction cycles. One
instruction cycle consists of four oscillator periods.
Thus, for an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, the normal
instruction exec ution time is 1 μs. If a conditional test is
true or the program counter is changed as a result of an
instruction, the instruction execution time is 2 μs.
Figure 11-1 shows the three general formats that the
instructions can have. All examples in the figure use
the following format to represent a hexadecimal
number:
0xhhh
where ‘h’ signifies a hexadecimal digit.

2: When an I/O register is modified as a function of itself (e.g. MOVF PORTB, 1), the value used will be that
value present on the pins t hemse lves . For examp le, if the dat a la tch is ‘1’ for a pi n conf igured a s inpu t and
is driven low by an external device, the data will be written back with a ‘0’.
3: The instruction TRIS f, where f = 6, causes the contents of the W register to be written to the tri-state
latches of PORTB. A ‘1’ forces the pin to a high-impedance state and disables the output buffers.
4: If this instruction is executed on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be
cleared (if assigned to TMR0).
