NOTES:
DS39599C-page 6 2003 Microchip Technology Inc.
PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320
1.0DEVICE OVERVIEW
This documen t conta i ns dev ic e spec if i c in for m at i on fo r
the following devices:
• PIC18F2220• PIC18F4220
• PIC18F2320• PIC18F4320
This family offers the advantages of all PIC18 microcontrollers – namely, high computational performance
at an economical price with the addition of highendurance Enhanced Flash program memory. On top
of these features, the PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320
family introduces design enhancements that make
these microcontrollers a logical choice for many
high-performance, power sensitive applications.
1.1New Core Features
1.1.1nanoWatt TECHNOLOGY
All of the devices in the PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320
family incorporate a range of features that can significantly reduce power consumption during operation.
Key items include:
• Alternate Run Modes: By clocking the controller
from the Timer1 source or the internal oscillator
block, power consumption during code execution
can be reduced by as much as 90%.
• Multiple Idle Modes: The controller can also run
with its CPU c ore disable d, but the pe ripherals are
still active. In these states, power consumption can
be reduced even further, to as little as 4% of normal
operation requirements.
• On-the-fly Mode Switching: The power managed
modes are invoked by user code during operation,
allowing th e user to inco rpor ate po wer sav ing id eas
into their application’s software design.
• Lower Consumption in Key Modules: The power
requirements for both Timer1 and the Watchdog
Timer have been reduced by up to 80%, with typical
values of 1.8 and 2.2 µA, respectively.
1.1.2MULTIPLE OSCILLATOR OPTIONS
AND FEATURES
All of the devices in the PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320
family offer nine different oscillator options, allowing
users a wide ran ge of choice s in develo ping applic ation
hardware. These include:
• Four Crystal modes using crystals or ceramic
resonators.
• Two External Clock modes offering the option of
using two pins (oscillator input and a divide-by-4
clock output) or one pin (oscillator input with the
second pin reassigned as general I/O).
• Two External RC Oscillator modes with the same
pin options as the External Clock modes.
• An internal oscillator block, which provides a 31 kHz
INTRC clock and an 8 MHz clock with 6 program
selectable divider ratios (4 MHz to 125 kHz) for a
total of 8 clock frequencies.
Besides its ava ilability as a cloc k source, the intern al
oscillator block pro vid es a s t ab le re fere nce source that
gives the family additional features for robust
operation:
• Fail-Safe Clock Monitor: This option constantly
monitors the main clock source against a reference
signal provided by the internal oscillator. If a clock
failure occurs, the controller is switched to the
internal oscillator block, allowing for continued
low-speed operation or a safe application shutdown.
• Two-Speed Start-up: This option allows the internal
oscillator to serve as the clock source from Power-on
Reset, or wake-up from Sleep mode, until the primary
clock source is available. This allows for code execution during what would otherwise be the clock start-up
interval and can even allow an application to perform
routine background activities and return to Sleep
without returning to full power operation.
1.2Other Special Features
• Memory Endurance: The Enhanced Flash cells for
both program memory and data EEPROM are rated
to last for many thousands of erase/write cycles – up
to 100,000 for program memory and 1,000,000 for
EEPROM. Data retention without refresh is
conservatively estimated to be greater than 40 years.
• Self-programmability: These devices can write to
their own program memory spaces under internal
software control. By using a bootloader routine
located in the protected Boot Block at the top of program memory, it becomes possible to create an
application that can update itself in the field.
• Enhanced CCP Module: In PWM mode, this
module provides 1, 2 or 4 modulated outputs for
controlling half-bridge and full-bridge drivers. Other
features include Auto-Shutdown for disabling PWM
outputs on interrupt or other select conditions and
Auto-Restart to reactivate outputs once the
condition has cleared.
• Addressable USART: This serial communication
module is capable of standard RS-232 operation
using the internal oscillator block, removing the
need for an external crystal (and its accompanying
power requirement) in applications that talk to the
outside world.
• 10-bit A/D Converter: This module incorporates
programmable acquisition time, allowing for a channel to be sel ected and a convers ion to be initiated
without waiting for a sampling period and thus,
reduce code overhead.
• Extended Watchdog Timer (WDT): This enhanced
version incorporates a 16-bit prescaler, allowing a
time-out ra nge from 4 ms to over 2 mi nutes, that is
stable across operating voltage and temperature.

2.2Crystal Oscillator/Ceramic
Resonators
In XT, LP, HS or HSPLL Oscillator modes, a crystal or
ceramic resonator is connected to the OSC1 and
OSC2 pins to establish oscillation. Figure 2-1 shows
the pin connections.
The oscillator design requires the use of a parallel cut
crystal.
Note:Use of a series cut crystal may give a fre-
quency out of the crystal manufacturers
specifications.

2: When operating below 3V V
using certain ceramic resonators at any
voltage, it may be necessary to use the
HS mode or switch to a crystal oscillator.
3: Since each resonator/crystal has its own
characteristics, the user should consult

A Phase Locked Loop (PLL) circuit is provided as an
option for users who wish to use a lower frequency
crystal oscillator circuit, or to clock the device up to its
highest rated frequency from a crystal oscillator. This
may be useful for customers who are concerned with
EMI due to high-frequency crystals.
The HSPLL mode make s use of the HS mode osc illator
for frequencies up t o 10 MHz. A PLL then multipl ies the
oscillator output frequency by 4 to produce an internal
clock frequency up to 40 MHz.
The PLL is enabled only when the oscillator configuration bits are programmed for HSPLL mode. If
programmed for any other mode, the PLL is not
enabled.

2.4External Clock Input
The EC and ECIO Oscillator mode s require an externa l
clock source to be conn ected to the OSC1 pi n. There is
no oscillator start-up time required after a Power-on
Reset or after an exit from Sleep mode.
In the EC Oscillator mode, the oscillator frequency
divided by 4 is available on the OSC2 pin. This signal

2.5RC Oscillator
For timing insensitive applications, the “RC” and
“RCIO” device options offer additional cost savings.
The RC oscillator frequency is a function of the supply
voltage, the resistor (R
ues and the operating temperature. In addition to this,
the oscillator frequency will vary from uni t to unit due to
normal manufacturing variation. Furthermore, the difference in lead frame capacitance between package
types will also affect the oscillation frequency, especially for low C
EXT values. The user also needs to take
into account variation due to tolerance of external R
and C components used. Figure 2-6 shows how the
R/C combination is connected.
In the RC Oscillator mode, the oscillator frequency
divided by 4 is available on the OSC2 pin. This signal

2.6Internal Oscillator Block
The PIC18F2X20/4X20 devices include an internal
oscillator block wh ich generat es two dif ferent cl ock signals. Either can be used as the system’s clock source.
This can eliminate the need for external oscillator
circuits on the OSC1 and/or OSC2 pins.
The main output (INTOSC) is an 8 MHz clock source
which can be used to directly drive the system clock. It
also drives a postscaler which can provide a range of
clock frequencies from 125 kHz to 4 MHz. The
INTOSC output is enabled when a system clock
frequency from 125 kHz to 8 MHz is selected.
The other clock source is the internal RC oscillator
(INTRC) which provides a 31 kHz output. The INTRC
oscillator is enabled by selecting the internal oscillator
block as the system clock source or when any of the
following are enabled:
• Power-up Timer
• Fail-Safe Clock Monitor
• Watchdog Timer
• Two-Spe ed Start-up
These features are discussed in greater detail in
Section 23.0 “Special Features of the CPU”.
The clock source frequency (INTOSC direct, INTRC
direct or INTOSC postscaler) is selected by configuring
the IRCF bits of the OSCCON register (page 26).
2.6.1INTIO MODES
Using the internal oscillator as the clock source can
eliminate the need for up to two external oscillator pin s
which can then be used for digital I/O. Two distinct
configurations are available:
• In INTIO1 mode, the OSC2 pin outputs F
while OSC1 functions as RA 7 fo r dig it a l in put a nd
output.
• In INTIO2 mode, OSC1 functions as RA7 and
OSC2 functions as RA6, both for digital input and
output.
OSC/4,
2.6.2INTRC OUTPUT FREQUENCY
The internal oscillator block is calibrated at the factory
to produce an INTOSC output frequency of 8.0 MHz.
This changes the frequency of the INTRC source from
its nominal 31.25 kHz. Peripherals and features that
depend on the INTRC source will be affected by this
shift in frequency.
Once set during factory calibration, the INTRC
frequency will remain within ±1% as temperature and
DD change across their full specified operating
V
ranges.
2.6.3OSCTUNE REGISTER
The internal oscillator’s output has been calibrated at
the factory but c an be adjusted in the user's ap plication.
This is done by writing to the OSCTUNE register
(Register 2-1). The tuning sensitivity is constant
throughout the tuning range.
When the OSCTUNE regis ter is mo di fied , the IN T O SC
and INTRC frequencies will begin shifting to the new
frequency. The INTRC clock will reach the new frequency within 8clock cycles (approximately
8*32µs = 256 µs). The INTOSC clock will stabilize
within 1 ms. Code execution conti nues du ring th is shift.
There is no indicati on that th e shift ha s occurre d. Operation of features that depend on the INTRC clock
source frequency, such as the WDT, Fail-Safe Clock
Monitor and peripherals, will also be affected by the
change in frequency.

2.7Clock Sources and Oscillator
Switching
Like previous PIC18 devices, the PIC18F2X20 and
PIC18F4X20 devices include a feature that allows the
system clock source to be switched from the main
oscillator to an alternate low-frequency clock source.
PIC18F2X20/4X20 devices offer two alternate clock
sources. When enabled, these give additional options
for switching to the various power managed operating
modes.
Essentially, there are three clock sources for these
devices:
• Primary oscillators
• Secondary oscillators
• Internal oscillator block
The primary oscillators include the E xternal Crystal
and Resonator modes, the External RC modes, the
External Clock modes and the internal oscillator block.
The particular mod e is defined on POR by the content s
of Configuration Register 1H. The details of these
modes are covered earlier in this chapter.
The s econdary oscillat ors are those external sources
not connected to the OSC1 or OSC2 pins. These
sources may continue to operate even after the
controller is placed in a power managed mode.
PIC18F2X20/4X20 devices offer only the Timer1
oscillator as a seco ndary oscilla tor . This oscil lator , in all
power managed modes, is often the time base for
functions such as a real-time clock.
Most often, a 32.768 kHz watch crystal is connected
between the RC0/T1OSO/ T1CKI and RC1 /T1OSI pins.
Like the LP mode oscillator circuit, loading capacitors
are also connected from each pin to ground.
The Timer1 oscillator is discussed in greater detail in
Section 12.2 “Timer1 Oscillator”.
In addition to being a p rimary clock source, the internaloscillator block is available as a power managed
mode clock source. The INTRC source is a lso us ed as
the clock source for several special features, such as
the WDT and Fail-Safe Clock Monitor.
The clock sources for the PIC18F2X20/4X20 devices
are shown in Figure 2-8. See Section 12.0 “Timer1
Module” for further details of th e Timer1 os cillator . See
Section 23.1 “Configuration Bits” for Configuration
register details.
2.7.1OSCILLATOR CONTROL REGISTER
The OSCCON register (Register 2-2) controls several
aspects of the system clock’s operation, both in full
power operation and in power managed modes.
The System Clock Select bits, SCS1:SCS0, select the
clock source that is used when the device is operating
in power managed modes. The ava ilable c lock sou rces
are the primary clock (defined in Configuration
Register 1H), the secondary clock (Timer1 oscillator)
and the internal oscillator block. The clock selection
has no effect until a SLEEP instruction is executed and
the device enters a power managed mode of opera tion.
The SCS bits are cleared on all forms of Reset.
The Internal Oscill ator Select bit s, IRCF2:IRCF0, select
the frequency output of the interna l oscill ator block th at
is used to dr ive t he sys tem clo ck. Th e choi ces are t he
INTRC source, the INTOSC source (8 MHz) or one of
the six frequencies derived from the INTOSC
postscaler (125kHz to 4 MHz). If the internal oscillator
block is supplying the system clock, changing the
states of thes e bits w ill ha ve an immedi ate cha nge on
the internal oscillator’s output.
The OSTS, IOFS and T1RUN bits ind icate wh ich cl oc k
source is currently providing the system clock. The
OSTS indicates that the Oscillator Start-up Timer has
timed out and the prima ry clock is providin g the system
clock in pri mary clock mode s. The IOFS b it indicates
when the internal oscillator block has stabilized and is
providing the system clock in RC Clock modes. The
T1RUN bit (T1CON<6>) indicates when the Timer1
oscillator is providing the system clock in secondary
clock modes. If none of th ese bit s are set, th e INTRC is
providing the system clock, or the internal oscillator
block has just started and is not yet stable.
The IDLEN bit controls the selective shutdown of the
controller’s CPU in power managed mo des. The use of
these bits is discussed in more detail in Section 3.0
“Power Managed Modes”.
Note 1: The Timer1 oscillator must be enabled to
select the secondary clock source. The
Timer1 osc illator is enabled by s etting the
T1OSCEN bit in th e T imer1 C ontrol re gister (T1CON<3>). If the Timer1 oscillator
is not enabled, then any atte mpt to set the
SCS0 bit will be ignored.
2: It is recommended that the Timer1
oscillator be operating and stable before
executing the SLEEP instr u ct ion or a very
long delay may occur while the Timer1
oscillator starts.

2.7.2OSCIL LAT OR TRANSITIONS
The PIC18F2X20/4X20 de vices contain ci rcuitry to prevent clocking “glitches” when switching between clock
sources. A short p aus e in the sy stem c lock o ccurs during the clock switch. The length of this pause is
between 8 and 9 clock pe riods of the n ew clock sourc e.
This ensures that the new clock source is stable and
that its pulse width will not be less than the shortest
pulse width of the two clock sources.
Clock transitions are discussed in greater detail in
Section 3.1.2 “Entering Power Managed Modes”.
2.8Effects of Power Managed Modes
on the Various Clock Sources
When the device executes a SLEEP instruction, the
system is switched to one of the power managed
modes, depending on the state of the IDLEN and
SCS1:SCS0 bits of the OSCCON register. See
Section 3.0 “Power Managed Modes” for details.
When PRI_IDLE mode is selected, the designated primary oscillator continues to run without interruption.
For all other power managed modes, the oscillator
using the OSC1 pin is disabled. The OSC1 pin (and
OSC2 pin, if used by the o scillat or) will sto p oscillat ing.
In secondary clock modes (SEC_RUN and
SEC_IDLE), the Timer1 oscillator is op erat ing an d p roviding the s ystem clo ck. The T ime r1 osci llator m ay als o
run in all power managed modes if required to clock
Timer1 or Timer3.
In internal oscillator modes (RC_RUN and RC_IDLE),
the internal oscillator block provides the system clock
source. The INTRC output can be used directly to
provide the system clock and may be enabled to
support various special features, regardless of the
power managed mode (see Section 23.2 “Watchdog
Timer (WDT)” through Section 23.4 “Fail-Safe Clock
Monitor”). The INTOSC output at 8 MHz may be used
directly to clock the system or may be divided down
first. The INTOSC out put is disabled if the sy stem clock
is provided directly from the INTRC output.
If the Sleep mode is selected, all clock sources are
stopped. Since all the transistor switching currents
have been stopped, Sleep mode achieves the lowest
current consumption of the device (only leakage
currents).
Enabling any on-chip feature that will operate during
Sleep will increase the current co nsumed duri ng Sleep.
The INTRC is required to support WDT operation. The
Timer1 oscillator may be operating to support a realtime clock. Ot her features may be operating that do n ot
require a system clock source (i.e., SSP slave, PSP,
INTn pins, A/D conversions and others).
2.9Power-up Delays
Power-up delays are c ontrolled by two ti mers so that no
external Reset circuitry is required for most applications. The delays ensure that the device is kept in
Reset until the device powe r supply i s stable under normal circumstan ces and the pri mary clock is ope rating
and stable. For additional information on power-up
delays, see Section 4.1 “Power-on Reset (POR)”
through Section 4.5 “Brown-out Reset (BOR)”.
The first timer is the Power-up Timer (PWRT) which
provides a fixed delay on power-up (parameter 33,
Table 26-10), if enabled, in Configuration Register 2L.
The second timer is the Oscillator Start-up Timer
(OST), intended to keep the chip in Rese t until the crystal oscillator is stable (LP, XT and HS modes). The OST
does this by counting 1024 oscillator cycles before
allowing the oscillator to clock the device.
When the HSPLL Oscillator mode is selected, the
device is kept in Res et for an add iti onal 2ms, following
the HS mode OST delay, so the PLL can lock to the
incoming clock frequ enc y.
There is a delay of 5 to 10 µs, following POR, while the
controller becomes ready to execute instructions. This
delay runs concurrently with any other delays. This
may be the only del ay that occurs when any o f the EC ,
RC or INTIO modes are used as the primary clock
source.

3.0POWER MANAGED MODES
The PIC18F2X20 and PIC18F4X20 devices offer a total
of six operating modes for more efficient power
management (see Table 3-1). These operating modes
provide a variety of options for selective power
conservation in applications where resources may be
limited (i.e., battery-powered devices).
There are three categories of power managed modes:
• Sleep mode
• Idle modes
• Run modes
These categories define which portions of the device
are clocked and some times , what sp eed. The R un and
Idle modes may use any of the three available clock
sources (primary, secondary or INTOSC multiplexer);
the Sleep mode does not use a clock source.
The clock switching feature offered in other PIC18
devices (i.e., using the Timer1 oscillator in place of the
primary oscillator) and the Sleep mode offered by all
PICmicro
stopped) are both offered in the PIC18F2X20/4X20
devices (SEC_RUN and Sleep modes, respectively).
However, additional power managed modes are available that allow the u ser greater flexibili ty in dete rmining
what portions of the device are operating. The power
managed modes are event driven; that is, some
specific event must occur for the device to enter or
(more particularly) exit these operating modes.
®
devices (where all system clocks are
For PIC18F2X20/4X20 devices, the power managed
modes are invoked by using the existing SLEEP
instruction. All modes exit to PRI_RUN mode when triggered by an interrupt, a Reset, or a WDT time-out
(PRI_RUN mode is the normal full power execution
mode; the CPU and peri phe rals are cl ock ed by the p rimary oscillator source). In addition, power managed
Run modes may also exit to Sleep mode or their
corresponding Idle mode.
3.1Selecting Power Managed Modes
Selecting a power managed mode requires deciding if
the CPU is to be clocked or not and selecting a clock
source. The IDLEN bit co ntro ls CPU c lo ck ing whil e th e
SC1:SCS0 bits select a clock source. The individual
modes, bit settings, clock sources and affected
modules are summarized in Table 3-1.
3.1.1CLOCK SOURCES
The clock source is selected by setting the SCS bits of
the OSCCON register. Three clock sources are available for use in power manag ed Idle modes: th e primary
clock (as configured in Configuration Register 1H), the
secondary clock (Timer1 oscillator) and the internal
oscillator block. The secondary and internal oscillator
block sources are available for the power managed
modes (PRI_RUN mode is the normal full power execution mode; the CPU and peripherals are clocked by
the primary oscillator source).
Note 1: Includes INTOSC and INTOSC postscaler, as well as the INTRC source.

3.1.2ENTERING POWER MANAGED
MODES
In general, entry, exit and switching between power
managed clock sources requires clock source
switching. In each case, the sequence of events is the
same.
Any change in the power managed mode begins with
loading the OSCCON register and executing a SLEEP
instruction. The SCS1:SCS0 bits select one of three
power managed clock sources; the primary clock (as
defined in Configuration R egister 1H), the s econdary
clock (the Timer1 os cillator) and the inte rnal osci llator
block (used i n RC mode s). Mo dif ying the SCS bits wi ll
have no effec t until a SLEEP instruction is executed.
Entry to the power managed mode is triggered by the
execution of a SLEEP instruction.
Figure 3-5 shows how the system is clocked while
switching from the primary clock to the Timer1 oscillator. When the SLEEP instruction is executed, clocks to
the device are stopped at the beginning of the next
instruction cycle. Eight clock cycles from the new clock
source are counted to synchronize with the new clock
source. After eight clock pulses from the new clock
source are counted, clocks from the new clock source
resume clocking the system. The actual length of the
pause is betwe en eight and nine cl ock periods from the
new clock source. This ensures that the new clock
source is stab le a nd th at its pulse wid th wil l not be less
than the shortest pulse width of the two clock sources.
Three bits in dicat e the current cloc k so urce: OSTS an d
IOFS in the OSCCON register and T1RUN in the
T1CON register. Only one o f these bit s will be se t while
in a power managed mode othe r than PRI_RUN. Whe n
the OSTS bit is set, the primary clock is providing the
system clock. When the IOFS bit is set, the INTOSC
output is providing a stable 8MHz clock source and is
providing the sy stem cl ock. When the T1R UN bit is set,
the Timer1 oscillator is providing the system clock. If
none of these bits are set, then either the INTRC clock
source is cloc ki ng t he sy ste m or the INTOSC sourc e i s
not yet stable.
If the internal oscillator block is configured as the primary clock source in Configuration Register 1H, then
both the OSTS and IOFS bits may be set when in
PRI_RUN or PRI_IDLE modes. This indicates that the
primary clock (INTOSC output) is generating a stable
8 MHz output. Entering a power managed RC mode
(same frequency) would clear the OSTS bit.
Note 1: Caution should be used when m odifying a
single IRCF bit. If V
possible to select a higher clock speed
than is supported by the low VDD.
Improper device operation may result if
the VDD/FOSC specifications are violated.
2: Executing a SLEEP instruction does not
necessarily place the device into Sleep
mode; executing a SLEEP instruction is
simply a trigger to place th e controller in to
a power managed mode selected by the
OSCCON register, one of which is Sleep
mode.
DD is less than 3V, it is
3.1.3MULTIPLE SLEEP COMMANDS
The power managed mode that is invoked with the
SLEEP instruction is determined by the settings of the
IDLEN and SCS bits at the time the instruction is executed. If another SLEEP instruction is executed, the
device will enter the power manag ed mode spe cified by
these same bits at that time. If the bits have changed,
the device will enter the new power managed mode
specified by the new bit settings.
3.1.4COMPARISONS BETWEEN RUN
AND IDLE MODES
Clock source selection for the Run modes is identical to
the corresponding Idle modes. When a SLEEP instruction is executed, the SCS bits in the OSCCON register
are used to switch to a different clock source. As a
result, if there is a ch ange of clock sour ce at th e ti me a
SLEEP instruction is ex ecuted, a clock swi tch will occur .
In Idle modes, the CPU is not clocked and is not running. In Run mode s, the CPU is clocked and executin g
code. This difference modifies the operation of the
WDT when it times out. I n Id le modes, a WDT time-o ut
results in a wake from power managed modes. In Run
modes, a WDT time-out results in a WDT Reset (see
Table 3-2).
During a wake-up from an Idle mode, the CPU starts
executing code by entering the corresponding Run
mode until the primary clock becomes ready. When the
primary clock becomes ready, the clock source is automatically switched to the primary clock. The IDLEN and
SCS bits are unchanged during and after the wake-up.
Figure 3-2 shows how the system is clocked dur ing the
clock source switch. The example assumes the device
was in SEC_IDLE or SEC_RUN mode when a wake is
triggered (the primary clock was configured in HSPLL
mode).

Unchanged from Run mode.
3.2Sleep Mode
The power managed Sleep mode in the PIC18F2X20/
4X20 devices is identical to that offered in all other
PICmicro controllers. It is entered by clearing the
IDLEN and SCS1:SCS0 bits (this is the Reset state)
and executing the SLEEP instruction. This s huts down
the primary oscillator and the OSTS bit is cleared (see
Figure 3-1).
When a wake ev ent occurs i n Sleep mo de (by int errupt,
Reset or WDT time-out), th e system w ill not be cloc ked
until the primary clock source becomes ready (see
Figure 3-2), or it will be clocked from the internal
oscillator block if either the Two-Speed Start-up or the
Fail-Safe Clock Monitor are enabl ed (see Section 23.0“Special Features of the CPU”). In either case, the
OSTS bit is set whe n t he primary clock is providing the
system clocks. The IDLEN and SCS bits are not
affected by the wake-u p.
3.3Idle Modes
The IDLEN bit allows the controller’s CPU to be
selectively shut down while the peripherals continue to
operate. Clearing ID LEN allows t he CPU to be cl ocked.
Setting IDLEN disables clocks to the CPU, effectively
stopping program execution (see Register 2-2). The
peripherals continue to be clocked regardless of the
setting of the IDLEN bit.
There is one exception to ho w the IDLEN bit functions.
When all the low-power OSCCON bits are cleared
(IDLEN:SCS1:SCS0 = 000), the device enters Sleep
mode upon the execu tion of the SLEEP instruction. This
is both the Reset state of the OSCCON register and the
setting that selects Sleep mode. This maintains compatibility with other PICmicro devices that do not offer
power managed modes.
If the Idle Enable bit, IDLEN (OSCCON<7>), is set to a
‘1’ when a SLEEP instruction is executed, the
peripherals will be clocked from the clock source
selected using the SCS1 :SCS0 bits ; however, the CPU
will not be clocked. Since the CPU is not executing
instructions, the only exits from any of the Idle modes
are by interrupt, WDT time-out or a Reset.
When a wake-up event occurs, CPU execution is
delayed approxim ately 10µs while it becomes ready to
execute code. When the CPU begins executing code,
it is clocked by the same clock source as was selected
in the power managed mode (i.e., when waking from
RC_IDLE mode, the internal oscillator block will clock
the CPU and peripherals unti l the primar y clock so urce
becomes ready – this is essentially RC_RUN mode).
This continues until the primary clock source becomes
ready. When the primary clock becomes ready, the
OSTS bit is set and the system clock source is
switched to the primary clock (see Figure 3-4). The
IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up.
While in any Idle mode or the Sleep m ode, a WDT time-out
will result in a W DT wak e-up t o full power op erat ion.

3.3.1PRI_IDLE MODE
This mode is unique among the three Low-Power Idle
modes in that it does not disable the primary system
clock. For timing sensitive applications, this allows for
the fastest resumption of device operation, with its
more accurate primary clock source, since the clock
source does not have to “warm up” or transition from
another oscillator.
When a wake-up event occurs, the CPU is clocked
from the primary clock source. A delay of approximately 10 µs is required between the wake-up event
and when code execution starts. This is required to
allow the CPU to bec ome ready to exec ute instructions.
After the wake-up, the OSTS bit remains set. The
IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wak e-up
(see Figure 3-4).
PRI_IDLE mode is entered by setting the IDLEN bit,
clearing the SCS bits and executing a SLEEP instruction. Although the CPU is disabled, the peripherals
continue to be clocked from the primary clock source
specified in Configuration Register 1H. The OSTS bit
remains set in PRI_IDLE mode (see Figure 3-3).

3.3.2SEC_ID LE MO DE
In SEC_IDLE mode, the CPU is disabled but the
peripherals continue to be clocked from the Timer1
oscillator. This mode is entered by setting the IDLEN
bit, modifying to SCS1:SCS0 = 01 and executing a
SLEEP instruction. When the clock source is switched
to the Timer1 oscillator (see Figure 3-5), the primary
oscillator is shut down, th e OSTS bit is cleared and the
T1RUN bit is set.
Note:The Timer1 oscillator should already be
running prior to entering SEC_IDLE mod e.
When a wake-up event occurs, the peripherals continue
to be clocked from th e Timer1 oscillator. After a 10 µs
delay following the wake-up event, the CPU begins executing code, being clocked by the Timer1 oscillator. The
microcontroller operates in SE C_RUN mode until the
primary clock becomes ready. When the primary clock
becomes ready, a clock switch back to the primary clock
occurs (see Figure 3-6). When the clock switch is complete, the T1RUN bit is cleared , the OSTS bit is set and
the primary clock is providing the system clock. The
IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wa ke-up;
the Timer1 oscillator continues to run.
If the T1OSCEN bit is not set when trying to set the SCS0 bit (OSCCON<0>),
the write to SCS0 will not occur. If the
Timer1 oscillator is enabled but not yet
running, peripheral clocks will be delayed
until the os cill at or ha s start ed; in su ch si tuations, initial oscillator operation is far
from stable and unpredictable operation
may result.

3.3.3RC_IDLE MODE
In RC_IDLE mode, t he C PU is d isabled but the peripherals continue to b e c loc ke d fro m t he internal oscilla tor
block using the INTOSC multiplexer. This mode allows
for controllable power cons ervation during Idl e periods .
This mode is entered by setting the IDLEN bit, setting
SCS1 (SCS0 is ignored) and executing a SLEEP
instruction. The INTOSC multiplexer may be used to
select a higher clock frequency by modifying the IRCF
bits before exec uti ng th e SLEEP instruction. When the
clock source is switched to the INTOSC multiplexer
(see Figure 3-7), the primary oscillator is shut down
and the OSTS bit is cleared.
If the IRCF bits are set to a non-zero value (thus
enabling the INTOSC output), the IOFS bit becomes
set after the INTOSC output becomes stable, in about
1 ms. Clocks to the peripherals continue while the
INTOSC source stabilizes. If the IRCF bits were previ-
was executed and the INTOSC source was already
stable, the IOFS bit will remain set. If the IRCF bits are
all clear, the INTOSC output is not enabled and the
IOFS bit will remain clear; there will be no indication of
the current cl ock source.
When a wake-up event occurs, the peripherals continue to be clocked from the INTOSC multiplexer. After
a 10 µs delay following the wake-up event, the CPU
begins executing code, being clocked by the INTOSC
multiplexer. The microcontroller operates in RC_RUN
mode until the primar y clock bec omes read y. When the
primary cloc k becomes ready, a clock switc h back to
the primary clock occurs (see Figure 3-8). When the
clock switch is complete, the IOFS bit is cleared, the
OSTS bit is set and the primary clock is providing the
system clock. The I DLEN and SCS bi ts are not a ffected
by the wake-up. The INT RC sour ce will c ontinu e to run
if either the WDT or the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor is
enabled.

3.4Run Modes
If the IDLEN bit is clear when a SLEEP instruction is
executed, the CPU and peripherals are both clocked
from the source selected using the SCS1:SCS0 bits.
While these operating mo des may not aff ord the power
conservation of Idle or Sleep modes, they do allow the
device to continue executing instructions by using a
lower frequency clock source. RC_RUN mode also
offers the possibility of executing code at a frequency
greater than the primary clock.
Wake-up from a power managed Run mode can be
triggered by an interrupt, or any Reset, to return to full
power operation. As the CPU i s exec uti ng c od e in Ru n
modes, several additional exits from Run modes are
possible. They inclu de exit to Sleep m ode, exit to a correspondin g Idl e mode , and ex it by exec uting a RESET
instruction. While the device is in any of the power
managed Run modes, a WDT time-out will result in a
WDT Reset.
3.4.1PRI_RUN MODE
The PRI_RUN mode is the normal full power execution
mode. If the SLEEP instruction is never executed, the
microcontroller opera tes in this m ode (a SLEEP instruction is executed to enter all other power managed
modes). All other power managed modes exit to
PRI_RUN mode when an interrupt or WDT time-out
occur.
There is no entry to PRI_RUN mode. The OSTS bit is
set. The IOFS bit may be set if the internal oscillator
block is the primary clock source (see Section2.7.1“Oscillator Control Register”).
3.4.2SEC_RUN MODE
The SEC_RUN mode is the compatible mode to the
“clock switching” feature offered in other PIC18
devices. In this mode, the CPU and peripherals are
clocked from the T imer1 osci llator. This gives users the
option of lower power c onsumption w hile still using a
high accuracy clock source.
SEC_RUN mode is entered by clearing the IDLEN bit,
setting SCS1:SCS0 = 01 and executing a SLEEP
instruction. The system clo ck source is switched to the
Timer1 oscillator (see Figure 3-9), the primary oscillator is shut down, the T1RUN bit (T1CON<6>) is set and
the OSTS bit is cleared.
Note:The Timer1 oscillator should already be
running prior to entering SEC_RU N mode.
If the T1OSCEN bit is not set when trying to set the SCS0 bit, the write to
SCS0 will not occur. If t he Timer1 oscilla-
tor is enabled, but not ye t run nin g, s ys tem
clocks will be delayed until the oscillator
has started; in such sit uation s, initi al osci llator operation is far from stable and
unpredictable operation may result.
When a wake-up event occurs, the peripherals and
CPU continue to be c locked fro m the Timer1 oscilla tor
while the primary clock is started. When the primary
clock becomes ready, a clock switch back to the primary
clock occurs (see Figure 3-6). When the clock switch is
complete, the T1RUN bit is cleared, the OSTS bit is set
and the primary clock is providing the system clock. The
IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wa ke-up;
the Timer1 oscillator continues to run.
Firmware can force an exit from SE C_RUN mode. By
clearing the T1OSC EN bit (T1CON<3>), an exit from
SEC_RUN back to normal full po wer operation is triggered. The Timer1 oscillator will continue to run and
provide the system clock even though the T1OSCEN bit
is cleared. The prim ary clock is started. When the primary clock becomes ready, a clock switch back to the
primary clock occurs (see Figure 3-6). When the clock
switch is complete, the Timer1 oscillator is disabled, the
T1RUN bit is cleared, t he OSTS bit is set and the primary clock is providing the system clock. The IDLEN
and SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up.

3.4.3RC_RUN MODE
In RC_RUN mode, the CPU and peripherals are
clocked from the internal oscillator block using the
INTOSC multiplexer and the primary clock is shut
down. When using the INTRC source, this mode provides the best power con servation of all the Run mode s
while still ex ecuting code. I t works well for use r applic ations which are not highly timing sensitive or do not
require high-speed clocks at all times.
If the primary clock source is the internal oscillator
block (either of the INTIO1 or INTIO2 os cillator s), there
are no distinguishable differences between PRI_RUN
and RC_RUN modes during execution. However, a
clock switch delay will occur during entry to, and exit
from, RC_RUN mode. Therefore, if the primary clock
source is the internal oscillator block, the use of
RC_RUN mode is not recommended.
This mode is ente red by c lea rin g th e IDLEN b it, se ttin g
SCS1 (SCS0 is ignored) and executing a SLEEP
instruction. The IRCF bits may select the clock
frequency before the SLEEP instruction is executed.
When the clock source is switched to the INTOSC
multiplexer (see Figure 3-10), the primary oscillator is
shut down and the OSTS bit is cleared.
The IRCF bits may be modified at any time to immediately change the system clock speed. Executing a
SLEEP instruction is not required to select a new clock
frequency from the INTOSC multiplexer.
Note:Cautio n s hou ld be u se d w he n m odi fy ing a
single IRCF bit. If V
DD is less than 3V, it is
possible to select a higher clock speed
than is supported by the low VDD.
Improper device operation may result if
the VDD/FOSC specifications are violated.
If the IRCF bits are all clear, the INTOSC output is not
enabled and the IOFS bit wi ll remain clear; there will be
no indication of the current clock source. The INTRC
source is providing the system clocks.
If the IRCF bits are changed from all clear (thus
enabling the INTOSC output), the IOFS bit becomes
set after the INTOSC out put becom es stab le. Clocks to
the system continue while the INTOSC source
stabilizes in approximately 1ms.
If the IRCF bits were previously at a non-zero value
before the SLEEP instruction was executed and the
INTOSC source was already stable, the IOFS bit will
remain set.
When a wake-up event occurs , the system continues to
be clocked from the INTOSC multiplexer while the primary clock is st arted. When t he primary cl ock become s
ready, a clock switch to the primary clock occurs (see
Figure 3-8). When the clock switch is complete, the
IOFS bit is cleared, the O STS bit is se t and the prim ary
clock is providing the system clock. The IDLEN and
SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up. The INTRC
source will continue to run if either the WDT or the
Fail-Safe Clock Monitor is enab led .

3.4.4EXIT TO IDLE MODE
An exit from a power managed Run mode to its corresponding Idle mode is executed by setting the IDLEN
bit and executing a SLEEP instruction. The CPU is
halted at the beginning of the instruction following the
SLEEP instruction. There are no changes to any of the
clock source status bits (OSTS, IOFS or T1RUN).
While the CPU is halte d, the periphe rals c ontin ue to b e
clocked from the previously selected clock source.
3.4.5EXIT TO SLEEP MODE
An exit from a power managed Run mode to Sleep
mode is executed by clearing the IDLEN and
SCS1:SCS0 bits and executing a SLEEP instruction.
The code is no diff erent than the me thod used to invoke
Sleep mode from the normal operating (full power)
mode.
The primary clock and internal oscillator block are disabled. The INTRC will continue to operate if the WDT
is enabled. The Timer1 oscillator will continue to run, if
enabled, in the T1C ON regis ter. All clock sourc e st atus
bits are cleared (OSTS, IOFS and T1RUN).
3.5Wake-up From Power Managed
Modes
An exit from any of the power managed modes is triggered by an interrupt, a Rese t, or a WDT time -out. This
section discusses the triggers that cause exits from
power managed modes. The clocking subsystem
actions are discussed in each of the power managed
modes (see Section 3.2 “Sleep Mode” through
Section 3.4 “Run Modes”).
Note:If application code is timing sensitive, it
should wait for the OSTS bi t to become set
before continuing. Use the interval during
the low-power exit sequence (before
OSTS is set) to perform timing insensitive
“housekeeping” tasks.
Device behavior during Low-Power mode exits is
summarized in Table 3-3.
3.5.1EXIT BY INTERRUPT
Any of the available interrupt sources can cause the
device to exit a power managed mode and resume full
power operation. To enable this functionality, an interrupt source must be e nab le d by s etti ng its enable bit i n
one of the INTCON or PIE register s. The exit sequenc e
is initiated when the corresponding interrupt flag bit is
set. On all exits from Lower Power mode by interrupt,
code execution branches to the interrupt vector if the
GIE/GIEH bit (INTCON<7>) is set. Otherwise, code
execution continues or resumes without branching
(see Section 9.0 “Interrupts”).

3.5.2EXIT BY RESET
Normally, the device is held in Reset by the Oscillator
Star t-up Timer (OST) until the primary clock (defi ned in
Configuration Register 1H) becomes ready. At that
time, the OSTS bit is set and the device begins
executing code.
Code execution can begin before the primary clock
becomes ready. If either the Two-Speed Start-up (see
Section 23.3 “Two-Speed Start-up”) or Fail-Safe
Clock Monitor (see Section 23.4 “Fail-Safe ClockMonitor”) are enabled in Configuration Register 1H,
the device may begin execution as soon as the Reset
source has cleared. Execution is clocked by the
INTOSC multiplexer driven by the internal oscillator
block. Since the OSCCON register is cleared fo llowing
all Resets, the INTRC clock source is selected. A higher
speed clock may be selected by modifying the IRCF bits
in the OSCCON register. Execution is clocked by the
internal oscillator block until either the primary clock
becomes ready, or a power managed mode is entered
before the primary clock becomes ready; the primary
clock is then shut down.
3.5.3EXIT BY WDT TIME-OUT
A WDT time-out will cause different actions depending
on which power managed mode the device is in when
the time-out occurs.
If the devic e is not exec uti ng co de (al l Id le mo des and
Sleep mode), the time -out wi ll resu lt i n a w ake-up from
the power managed mode (see Section 3.2 “SleepMode” through Section 3.4 “Run Modes”).
If the device is executing code (all Run modes), the
time-out will result in a WDT Reset (see Section 23.2“Watchdog Timer (WDT)”).
The WDT timer and postscaler are cleared by executing a SLEEP or CLRWDT instruction, the loss of a
currently selected clock source (if the Fail-Safe Clock
Monitor is enabled) and modifying the IRCF bits in the
OSCCON register if the internal oscillator block is the
system clock source.
3.5.4EXIT WITHOUT AN OSCILLATOR
START-UP DELAY
Certain exits from power managed modes do not
invoke the OST at all. These are:
• PRI_IDLE mode, where the primary clock source
is not stopped; and
• the primary clock source is not any of the LP, XT,
HS or HSPLL modes.
In these cases, the primary clock source either does
not require an oscillator start-up delay, since it is
already running (PRI_IDLE), or normally does not
require an oscillator start-up delay (RC, EC and INTIO
Oscillator modes).
However, a fixed del ay (a ppro xi ma tel y 10 µs) following
the wake-up event is required when leaving Sleep and
Idle modes. This delay is required for the CPU to prepare for execution. Instruction execution resumes on
the first clock cycle following this delay.
3.6INTOSC Frequency Drift
The factory calibrates the internal oscillator block
output (INTOSC) for 8 MHz. However, this frequency
may drift as VDD or temperature changes, which can
affect the controller operation in a variety of ways.
It is possible to adjust the INTOSC frequency by modifying the value in the OSCTUNE register. This has the
side effect that the INTRC clock source frequency is
also affected. However, the features that use the
INTRC source often do not require an exact frequency.
These features inc lude the Fail-Safe Clock Moni tor, the
Watchdog Timer and the RC_RUN/RC_IDLE modes
when the INTRC clock source is selected.
Being able to adjust the INTOSC requires knowing
when an adjustment is required, in which direction it
should be made and in some cases, how large a
change is needed. Three examples are shown but
other techniques may be used .
DS39599C-page 40 2003 Microchip Technology Inc.
PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320
3.6.1EXAMPLE – USART
An adjustment may be indicated when the USART
begins to generate framing errors or receives data
with errors while in Asynchronous mode. Framing
errors indicate that the system clock frequency is too
high – try decrementing the value in the OSCTUNE
register to reduce the system cl ock frequency. Errors in
data may suggest that the system clock speed is too
low – increment OSCTUNE.
3.6.2EXAMPLE – TIMERS
This technique compares system clock speed to some
reference clock. Two timers may be used; one timer is
clocked by the peripheral clock, while the other is
clocked by a fixed reference source, such as the
Timer1 oscillat or.
Both timers are cleared but the tim er clocked by the reference generates interr upts. Whe n an interrupt occurs ,
the internally clocked timer is read and both timers are
cleared. If the internally clocked timer value is greater
than expected, then the internal oscillator block is
running too fast – decrement OSCTUNE.
3.6.3EXAMPLE – CCP IN CAPTURE
MODE
A CCP module can use free running Timer1 (or
Timer3), cl oc ked by the internal oscillator block and an
external event with a known period (i.e., AC power frequency). The time of the first event is captured in the
CCPRxH:CCPRxL registers and is recorded for use
later. When the second event causes a capture, the
time of the first event is su btra cte d fro m the tim e of th e
second event. Since the period of the external event is
known, the time difference between events can be
calculated.
If the measured time is much greater than the
calculated time, the i nternal oscillator block is ru nning
too fast – decreme nt OSCT UNE. I f the me asured time
is much less than the calculated time, the internal
oscillator block is running too slow – increment

and BOR, are set or cleared differently in different

Reset situations as indicated in Table 4-2. These bits
are used in software to determine the nature of the

When the device st arts normal operati on (i.e ., ex its the

ensure operation. If these conditions are not met, the
device must be held in Reset until the operating

4.3Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) provides a 1024
oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delay after the
PWRT delay is over (para meter #33). Th is ensures th at
the crystal oscillator or resonator has started and
stabilized.
The OST time-out is invoked only for XT, LP, HS and
HSPLL modes and only on Power-on Reset, or on exit
from most power managed modes .
4.4PLL Lock Time-out
With the PLL enabled in its PLL mode, the time-out
sequence following a Power-on Reset is slightly
different from other oscillator modes. A portion of the
Power-up Tim er is used to provi de a fixed time-ou t that
is sufficient f or the PLL to loc k to the main os cillator f requency. This PLL lock time-out (T
PLL) is typically 2 ms
and follows the oscillator start-up time-out.
4.5Brown-out Reset (BOR)
A configuration bit, BOREN, can disable (if clear/
programmed) or enable (if set) the Brown- out Reset circuitry. If V
greater than T
ation will reset the chip. A Reset may not occur if V
DD falls below VBOR (parameter D005) for
BOR (parameter #35), the brown-out sit u-
DD
falls below VBOR for less than TBOR. The chip will
remain in Brown-out Reset until V
DD rises above VBOR .
If the Power-up T imer is enable d, it will be invo ked after
DD rises above VBOR; it then will keep the chip in
V
Reset for an additional time delay T
#33). If V
DD drops below VBOR while the Power-up

not automatically enable the PWRT.
4.6Time-out Sequence
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows:

4.2Power-up Timer (PWRT)
The Power-up Timer (PWRT) of the PIC18F2X20/4X20
devices is an 11-bit counter, which uses the INTRC
source as the clock input. This yields a count of
2048 x 32 µs = 65.6 ms. While the PWRT is counting,
the device is held in Reset.

Figure 4-3, Figure 4-4, Figure 4-5, Figure 4-6 and

instruction).
The PIC18F2220 and PIC18F4220 each have
4 Kbytes of Flash memory and can store up to 2,048
single-word instructions.
The PIC18F2320 and PIC18F4320 each have

5.2Return Address Stack
The return address s tack allows any co mbination of up
to 31 program calls and interrupts to occur. The PC
(Program Counter) is pushed onto the stack when a
CALL or RCALL instruction is execute d or an interrup t is
Acknowledged. The PC val ue is pul led of f th e stack on
a RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruct ion. P CLATU
and PCLATH are not affected by any of the RETURN or
CALL instructions.
The stack operates as a 31-word by 21-bit RAM and a
5-bit stack pointer, with the stack pointer initialized to
00000b after all Resets. There is no RAM associated
with stack pointer 00000b. This is only a Reset value.
During a CALL type instruc tion, causing a pu sh onto the
stack, the stack pointer is first incremented and the
RAM location pointed to by the stack pointer is written
with the contents of the PC (already pointing to the
instruction following the CALL). During a RETURN type
instruction, causing a pop from the stack, the contents
of the RAM location pointed to by the STKPTR are
transferred to the PC and then the stack pointer is
decremented.
The stack space is not part of either program or data
space. The stack po inter is r eadabl e and writabl e and
the address on the top of the stac k is readab le and writable through the top-of-stack Special File Registers.
Data can also be pushed to, or popped from, the stack
using the top-of-stack SFRs. Status bits indicate if the
stack is full, has overflowed or underflowed.
5.2.1TOP-OF-STACK ACCESS
The top of the stack is readable and writable. Three
register locations, TOSU, TOSH and TOSL, hold the
contents of the stack location pointed to by the
STKPTR register (Figure 5-3). This allows users to
implement a software stack if nece ssary . Afte r a CALL,RCALL or interrupt, the software can read the pushed
value by reading the TOSU, TO SH and TOSL regis ters.
These values can b e placed on a user define d software
stack. At return time, the software can replace the
TOSU, TOSH and TOSL and do a return.
The user must disable the global interrupt enable bits
while accessing the stack to prevent inadvertent stack
corruption.
5.2.2RETURN STACK POINTER
(STKPTR)
The STKPTR register (Re giste r 5-1) contains the st ac k
pointer value, the STKFUL (Stack Full) status bit and
the STKUNF (Stack Underflow) status bits. The value
of the stack pointer can be 0 through 31. The stack
pointer increments before values are pushed onto the
stack and decrements after values are popped off the
stack. At Reset, the stack pointer value will be zero.
The user may read and write the stack pointer value.
This feature can be used by a Real-Time Operating
System for return stack maintenance.
After the PC is pus hed on to the st ack 31 tim es (wi thout
popping any values off the stack), the STKFUL bit is
set. The STKFUL bit is cleared by software or by a
POR.
The action that takes place when the stack becomes
full depends on the state of the STVREN (Stack Overflow Reset Enable) configuration bit. (Refer to
Section 23.1 “Configuration Bits” for a descript ion of
the device configuration bits.) If STVREN is set
(default), the 31st push will push the (PC + 2) value
onto the stack, set the STKFUL bit and reset the
device. The STKFUL bit will remain set and the stack
pointer will be set to zero.
If STVREN is cleared, the STKFUL bit will be set on the
31st push and the stack pointer will increment to 31.
Any additional pushes will not overwrite the 31st push,
and STKPTR will remain at 31.
When the stack has been popped enough times to
unload the stac k, the next pop will ret urn a value of zero
to the PC and sets the STKUNF bit, while the stack
pointer remains at zero. The STKUNF bit will remain
set until cleared by software or a POR occurs.
Note:Returning a value of zero to the PC on an
underflow has the effect of vectoring the
program to the Reset vector, where the
stack conditions can be verified and
appropriate actions can be taken. This is
not the same as a Reset, as the contents
of the SFRs are not affected.

5.2.3PUSH AND POP INSTRUCTIONS
Since the Top-of-Stack (TOS) is rea dab le a nd w ritable,
the ability to push valu es onto the stack and pull va lues
off the sta ck, withou t disturbi ng normal program ex ecution, is a desirable optio n. To push the current PC value
onto the stack, a PUSH instruction can be executed.
This will i ncrem ent th e stack point er and load the cu rrent PC value onto the stack. TOSU, TOSH and TOSL
can then be modified to place data or a return address
on the stack.
The ability to pull the TOS value off of the stack and
replace it with the value that was previously pushed
onto the stack, without disturbing normal execution, is
achieved by using the POP inst ruction. T he POP instru ction discards the current TOS by decrementing the
stack pointer. The previous value pushed onto the
stack then becomes the TOS value.
5.2.4STACK FULL/UNDERFLOW RESETS
These Resets are enabled by programming the
STVREN bit in Configuration Register 4L. When the
STVREN bit is cleared, a full or underf low conditi on will
set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit but not
cause a device Reset. When the STVREN bit is set, a
full or underflow condition will set the appropriate
STKFUL or STKUNF bit and then cause a device
Reset. The STKFUL or STKUNF bits are cl eared by the
user software or a POR Reset.

PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320
5.3Fast Register Stack
A “fast return” option is available for interrupts. A Fast
Register Stack is provided for the Status, WREG and
BSR registers and are only one in depth. The stack is
not readable or writable and is loaded with the current
value of the correspo nding regi ster when the pro cessor
vectors for an interrupt. The values in the registers are
then loaded back into the working registers if the
RETFIE, FAST instruction is used to return from the
interrupt.
All interrupt sources w ill push va lues into the stack registers. If both low and high priority interrupts are
enabled, the stack registers cannot be used reliably to
return from low priority interrupt s. If a high pri ority interrupt occurs while servicing a low priority interrupt, the
stack register v al ues s tor ed by the l ow p riori ty in terru pt
will be overwritten. Users must save the key registers
in software during a low priority interrupt.
If interrupt priority is not used, all interrupts ma y use the
Fast Register Stack for returns from interrupt.
If no interrupts are used, the F ast Register S ta ck can be
used to restore the S tatus, WR EG and BSR registers at
the end of a subroutine call. To use the Fast Register
Stack for a subroutine call, a CALL label, FAST
instruction must be executed to save the Status,
WREG and BSR registers to the Fast Register S tack. A
RETURN, FAST instruction is then ex ec uted to re sto r e
these registers from the Fast Register Stack.
Example 5-1 shows a source code example that uses
the Fast Register Stack during a subroutine call and
return.
5.4PCL, PCLATH and PCLATU
The Program Counter (PC) s pecifies the ad dress of the
instruction to fetch for execution. The PC is 21-bits
wide. The low byte, known as the PCL register, is both
readable and writable. The high byte, or PCH register,
contains the PC<15 :8> bit s and is not direc tly read able
or writable. Updates to the PCH register may be performed through the PCLATH register. The upper byte i s
called PCU. This register contains the PC<20:16> bits
and is not directly readable or writable. Updates to the
PCU register may be performed through the PCLATU
register.
The contents of PCLATH and PCLATU will be transferred to the program counter by any operation that
writes PCL. Similarly, the upper two bytes of the program counter will be transferred to PCLATH and
PCLATU by an operation that reads PCL. This is useful
for computed offsets to the PC (see Section 5.8.1“Computed GOTO”).
The PC addresses bytes in the program memory. To
prevent the PC from becoming misaligned with word
instructions, the LSB of PCL is fixed to a value of ‘0’.
The PC increments by 2 to address sequential
instructions in the program memo ry.
The CALL, RCALL, GOTO and program branch
instructions write to the program counter directly. For
these instructions, the contents of PCLATH and
PCLATU are not transferred to the program counter.

5.5Clocking Scheme/Instruction
Cycle
The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by
four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature
clocks, namely Q1, Q 2, 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
are shown in Figure5-4.

5.6Instruction Flow/Pipelining
An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1,
Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instruc tio n fetch and execute ar e
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 program counter to change (e.g., GOTO),
then two cycles are req uired to c omplete the ins truction
(Example 5-2).
A fetch cycle begins with the Program Counter (PC)
incrementing in Q1.
In the execution cy cle, the fetch ed 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).

5.7Instructions in Program Memory
The program memory is addressed in bytes. Instructions are stored as two bytes or four bytes in program
memory. The Least Significant Byte of an instruction
word is always stored in a program memory location
with an even address (LSB = 0). Figure 5-5 shows an
example of how instructi on words are stored in the program memory. To maintain alignment with instruction
boundaries, the PC increments in steps of 2 and the
LSB will always read ‘0’ (see Section 5.4 “PCL,PCLATH and PCLATU”).
The CALL and GOTO instruc tions have the absolute p ro-
gram memory address embedded into the instruction.
Since instructions are always stored on word boundaries, the data contained in the instruction is a word
address. The word address is written to PC<20:1>,
which accesses the desired byte address in program
memory. Instruction #2 in Figure 5-5 shows how the
instruction ‘GOTO 000006h’ is encoded in the program
memory. Program branch i nst ructions, which encode a
relative address offset, operate in the same manner.
The offset value stored in a branch instruction represents the number of single-word instructions that the
PC will be offset by. Section 24.0 “Instruction SetSummary” provides further details of the instruction
set.
PIC18F2X20/4X20 devic es have four two-wor d instructions: MOVFF, CALL, GOTO and LFSR. The second
word of these instructions has the 4 MSBs set to ‘1’s
and is decoded as a NOP instruction. The lower 12 bits
of the second word contain data to be used by the
instruction. If the first word of the instruction is executed, the data in the second word is accessed. If the
second word of the in struction is executed by itself (firs t
word was skipped), it will exec ute as a NOP. This action
is necessary when the two-word inst ruction is prec eded
by a conditional instruction that results in a skip operation. A program example that demonstrates this concept is shown in Example 5-3. Refer to Section 24.0“Instruction Set Summary” for further details of the
instruction set.

5.8Look-up Tables
Look-up tables are implemented two ways:
• Computed GOTO
• Table Reads
5.8.1COMPUTED GOTO
A computed GOTO is accomplish ed by adding an of fset
to the program counter. An example is shown in
Example 5-4.
A look-up table can be formed with an ADDWF PCL
instruction and a group of RETLW 0xnn instructions.
WREG is loaded with an offset into the table before
executing a call to tha t t able. The first instru ction of the
called routine is the ADDWF PCL instruction. The next
instruction executed will be one of the RETLW 0xnn
instructions that returns the value 0xnn to the calling
function.
The offset value (in WREG) specifies the number of
bytes that the program counter should advance and
should be multiples of 2 (LSB = 0).
In this method, only one data byte may be stored in
each instruction location and room on the return
address stack is required.

5.8.2TABLE READS/TABLE WRITES
A better method of storing data in program memory
allows two bytes of dat a to be stored in each instruction
location.
Look-up table data may be stored two bytes per program word by using table reads and writes. The table
pointer (TBLPTR) specifies the byte address and the
table latch (TABLAT) contains the data that is read
from, or written to pro gram memory. Data is transferred
to/from program memory, one byte at a time.
The Table Read/Table Write operation is discussed
further in Section 6.1 “Table Reads and Table
Writes”.
5.9Data Memory Organization
The data memory is im ple me nte d as st atic RAM. Each
register in the data memory has a 12-bit address,
allowing up to 4096 bytes of data memory. Figure 5-6
shows the data memory organization for the
PIC18F2X20/4X20 devices.
The data memory map is divided into as many as 16
banks that contain 256 bytes each. The lower 4 bits of
the Bank Select Register (BSR<3:0>) select which
bank will be access ed. Th e uppe r 4 bit s o f the BSR a re
not implemented.
The data memory contains Special Function Registers
(SFR) and General Purpose Registers (GPR). The
SFRs are used for control and status of the controller
and peripheral functions, while GPRs are us ed for data
storage and scratch pad operations in the user’s application. The SFRs start at the last location of Bank 15
(FFFh) and extend towa rds F80h. Any remain ing space
beyond the SFRs in the bank may be implemented as
GPRs. GPRs start at the first location of Bank 0 and
grow upwards. Any re ad of a n un im ple me nte d l oca tion
will read as ‘0’s.
The entire data memory may be accessed directly or
indirectly. Direct add ress in g m ay re qui re the use of the
BSR register. Indirect addressing requires the use of a
File Select Register (FSRn) and a corresponding Indirect File Operand (INDFn). Each FSR holds a 12-bit
address value that can be used to access any location
in the data memory map without banking. See
Section 5.12 “Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR
Registers” for indirect addressing details.
The instruction set and architecture allow operations
across all banks. This ma y be accompli shed by indirec t
addressing or by the us e of th e MOVFF instruction. The
MOVFF instruction is a two-word/two-cycle instruction
that moves a value from one register to another.
To ensure that commonly used registers (SFRs and
select GPRs) can be accessed in a single cycle,
regardless of the current BSR values, an Access Bank
is implemented. A s egment of Bank 0 and a segme nt of
Bank 15 comprise the Access RAM. Section 5.10“Access Bank” provides a detailed description of the
Access RAM.
5.9.1GENERAL PURPOSE
REGISTER FILE
Enhanced MCU devices may have banked memory in
the GPR area. GPRs are not initialized by a Power-on
Reset and are unchanged on all other Resets.
Data RAM is available for use as GPR registers by all
instructions. The second half of Bank 15 (F80h to
FFFh) contains SFRs. All other banks of data memory
contain GPRs, starting with Bank 0.

5.9.2SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS
The Special Function Registers (SFRs) are registers
used by the CPU and p eripheral modul es for controllin g
the desired operation of the device. These reg isters are
implemented as static RAM. A list of these registers is
given in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2.
The SFRs can be classified into two sets: those asso-
“core” are described i n this section, whil e tho se rel ate d
to the operation of the peripheral features are
described in the section of that periphe ral feature.
The SFRs are typically distributed among the
peripherals whose functions they control.

5.10 Access Bank
The Access Bank is an architectural enhancement
which is very useful for C compiler code optimization.
The techniques used by the C compiler may also be
useful for programs written in assembly.
This data memory region can be used for:
• Intermediate computational values
• Local variables of subroutines
• Faster context saving/switching of variables
• Common variables
• Faster evaluation/control of SFRs (no banking)
The Access Bank is comprised of the last 128 bytes in
Bank 15 (SFRs) and the first 128 bytes in Bank 0.
These two sections will be referred to as Access RAM
High and Access RAM Low, respectively. Figure 5-6
indicates the Access RAM areas.
A bit in the instruction word spec ifie s if the opera tion is
to occur in the bank spec ifi ed by the BSR register or in
the Access Bank. This bit is denoted as the ‘a’ bit (for
access bit).
When forced in the Access Bank (a = 0), the last
address in Access RAM Low is followed by the first
address in Access RAM High. Access RAM High maps
the Special Function Registers, so these registers can
be accessed without any software overhead. This is
useful for testing st atus flags and m odifying control bit s.
5.1 1Bank Select Register (BSR)
The need for a large general purpose memory space
dictates a RAM banking scheme. The data memory is
partitioned into as ma ny as six teen ban ks. When using
direct addressing, th e BSR should be confi gured for the
desired bank.
BSR<3:0> holds the upper 4 bits of the 12-bit RAM
address. The BSR<7:4> bits will always read ‘0’s and
writes will have no effect (see Figure 5-7).
A MOVLB instruction has been provided in the
instruction set to assist in selecting banks.
If the currently selected bank is not implemented, any
read will return all ‘0’s and all writes are ignored. The
Stat us register bit s will be set/clea red as appropriate for
the instruction performed.
Each Bank extends up to FFh (256 bytes). All data
memory is implemented as static RAM.
A MOVFF instruction ignores the BSR since the 12-bit
addresses are embedded into the instruction word.
Section 5.12 “Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR
Registers” provides a description of indirect address-
ing which allows linear addressing of the entire RAM
space.

5.12Indirect Addressing, INDF and
FSR Registers
Indirect addressing is a mode of addressing dat a memory, where the data memory address in the instruction
is not fixed. An FSR regis ter i s u sed as a poi nte r to th e
data memory location that i s to be read or written. Since
this pointer is in RAM, the cont en t s c an be mo difi ed by
the program. This can be useful for data tables in the
data memory and for software stacks. Figure 5-8
shows how the fetched instruction is modified prior to
being executed.
Indirect addressing is possible by using one of the
INDF registers. Any ins tru cti on u si ng the IN DF reg ist er
actually accesses the register pointed to by the File
Select Register, FSR. Reading the INDF register itself,
indirectly (FSR = 0), will read 00h. Writing to the INDF
register indirectly, results in a no operation. The FSR
register contains a 12-bit address which is shown in
Figure 5-9.
The INDFn register is not a physical register. Addressing INDFn actually addresses the register whose
address is contained in the FSRn register (FSRn is a
pointer); t his is indir ect addressing.
Example 5-5 shows a simple use of indirect add ressing
to clear the RAM in Bank 1 (locations 100h-1FFh) in a
minimum number of instructions.

CONTINUE; YES, continue
There are three indirect addressing registers. To
address the entire data memory space (4096 bytes),
these registers are 12 bits wide. To store the 12 bits of
addressing information, two 8-bit registers are
required:
1.FSR0: composed of FSR0H:FSR0L
2.FSR1: composed of FSR1H:FSR1L
3.FSR2: composed of FSR2H:FSR2L
In addition, there are registers INDF0, INDF1 and
INDF2, which are not physically implemented. Reading
or writing to these registers activates indirect addressing with the value in the corresponding FSR register
being the a ddress of the data. If an instruction writes a
value to INDF0, th e v al ue will be w ritten to the address
pointed to by FSR 0H:FSR0L. A read f rom INDF 1 reads
the data from the address pointed to by
FSR1H:FSR1L. INDFn can be used in code anywhere
an operand can be used.
If INDF0, I NDF1 or INDF2 are re ad indirectly via an
FSR, all ‘0’s are read (zero bit is set). Similarly, if
INDF0, INDF1 or INDF2 are written to indirectly, the
operation will be equivale nt to a NOP instruction and the
status bits are not affected.

Each FSR register has an INDF register associated
with it, plus four addition al register addresses. Perform ing an operation using one of these five registers
determines how the FSR will be modified during
indirect addressing.
When data access is performed using one of the five
INDFn locations, the address selected will configure
the FSRn register to:
• Do nothing to FSRn after an indirect access (no
change) – INDFn
• Auto-decrement FSRn after an indirect acce ss
(post-decrement) – POSTDECn
• Auto-increment FSRn after an indirect access
(post-increment) – POSTINCn
• Auto-increment FS Rn before an indirect access
(pre-increment) – PREINCn
• Use the value in the WREG register as an offset
to FSRn. Do not mo dify the va lue of the WREG or
the FSRn register after an indirect access (no
change) – PLUSWn
When using the auto-increment or auto-decrement
features, the effect on the FSR is not reflected in the
Status register. For example, if the indirect address
causes the FSR to equal ‘0’, the Z bit will not be set.
Auto-incrementing or auto-decrementing an FSR
affects all 12 bits. That is, when FSRnL overflows from
an increment, FSRnH will be incremented
automatically.
Adding these features allows the FSRn to be used as a
stack pointer, in addition to its use for table operations
in data memo ry.
Each FSR has an address associated with it that performs an indexed indirect access. When a data access
to this INDFn location (PLUSWn) occurs, the FSRn is
configured to add th e s ig ned v alu e in the WREG register and the value in F S R to f orm the add res s befo re a n
indirect access. The FSR value is not changed. The
WREG offset range is -128 to +127.
If an FSR register contains a value that poin ts to one of
the INDFn, an indirect rea d will read 00h (zero b it is set)
while an indirect write will be equivalent to a NOP
(status bi ts are not affected).
If an indire ct addressing wr ite is performed when the
target address is an FSRnH or FSRnL register, the
data is written to the FSR register but no pre- or
post-increment/decrement is performed.

5.13Status Register
The St atus register , s hown in Register5-2, contains the
arithmetic status of the ALU. The Status register can be
the operand for any instruction as with any other register. I f the S tatus re gister is the des tination for an instruction that affects the Z, DC, C, OV or N bits, then the
write to these five bit s is dis abled . These b its are set or
cleared according to the device logic. Therefore, the
result of an instruction with the Status register as
destination may be different than intended.

For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper three
bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the Status register
as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,SWAPF, MOVFF and MOVWF instructions are used to

6.0FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY
The Flash program memory is readable, writable and
erasable during normal operation over the entire V
range.
A read from program memory is executed on one byte
at a time. A write to program memory is executed on
blocks of 8 byt es at a time. Program mem ory is erased
in blocks of 64 bytes at a time. A bulk erase operation
may not be issued from user code.
While writing or erasing program memory, instruction
fetches cease until the operation is complete. The
program memory cannot be accessed during the write
or erase, therefore, code cannot execute. An internal
programming timer terminates program memory writes
and erases.
A value written to progra m memory does not nee d to be
a valid instruction. Executing a program memory
location that forms an invalid instruction results in a
NOP.
6.1Table Reads and Table Writes
In order to read and write program memory, there are
two operati ons that all ow the pro cess o r to m ove by tes
between the program memory space and the data
RAM:
• Table Read (TBLRD)
• Table Write (TBLWT)
DD
The program memory space is 16 bits wide while the
data RAM space is 8 bits wide. Table reads and table
writes move data between these two memory spaces
through an 8-bit register (TABLAT).
Table read operations retrieve data from program
memory and place it into TABLAT in the data RAM
space. Figure 6-1 shows the operation of a table read
with program memory and data RAM.
Table write operations store data from TABLAT in the
data memory space into holding registers in program
memory. The procedure to write the contents of the
holding registers into program memory is detailed in
Section 6.5 “Writing to Flash Program Memory”.
Figure 6-2 shows the operation of a table write with
program memory and data RAM.
Table operations work with byte entities. A table block
containing d ata, rather than prog ram instruct ions, is n ot
required to be word aligned. Therefore, a table block
can start and en d at any byte ad dress. If a table wr ite is
being used to write executable code into program
memory, program instructions will need to be word
aligned (TBLPTRL<0> = 0).
The EEPROM on-chip timer controls the write and
erase times. The write and erase voltages are generated by an on-chip charge pump rated to operate over
the voltage range of the device for byte or word
operations.

6.2Control Registers
Several control registers are used in conjunction with
the TBLRD and TBLWT instructions. These include the:
• EECON1 register
• EECON2 register
• TABLAT register
• TBLPTR registers
6.2.1EECON1 AND EECO N2 REGISTERS
EECON1 is the control register for memory accesses.
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2
will read all ‘0’s. The EECON2 register is used
exclusively in the memory write and erase sequences.
Control bit, EEPGD, determines if the a cces s wil l be to
program or data EEPROM memory. When clear,
operations will access the data EEPROM memory.
When set, pr ogram memory is accessed.
Control bit, CFGS, determines if the access will be to
the configuration registers or to program memory/data
EEPROM memory. When set, subsequent operations
access configuration registers. When CFGS is clear,
the EEPGD bit selects either program Flash or data
EEPROM memory.
The FREE bit controls program memory erase operations. When the FREE bit is set, the erase operation is
initiated on the next WR command. When FREE is
clear, only writes are enabled.
The WREN bit enables and disables erase and write
operations. When set, erase and write operations are
allowed. When clear, erase and write operations are
disabled – the WR bit can not be set while the W REN bit
is clear . Thi s process helps to preve nt accident al w rites
to memory due to errant (unexpected) code execution.
Firmware should keep the WREN bit clear at all times
except when starting erase or write operations. Once
firmware has set the WR bit, the WREN bit may be
cleared. Clearing the WREN bit will not affect the
operation in progress.
The WRERR bit is set when a write operation is interrupted by a Reset. In these situations, the user can
check the WRERR bit and rewrite the location . It will be
necessary to reload the data and address registers
(EEDA T A and EEADR) as these registers hav e cleared
as a result of the Reset.
Control bits, RD and WR, start read and erase/write
operations, respec tively. These bi ts are set by fi rmware
and cleared by hardware at the completion of the
operation.
The RD bit cannot be set when accessing program
memory (EEPGD = 1). Program memory is read using
table read instruc tions. See Section 6.3 “Reading the
Flash Program Memory” regarding table reads.
Note:Interrupt flag bit, EEIF in the PIR2 regi ster,
is set when the write is complete. It must
be cleared in software.

6.2.2TABLAT – TABLE LATCH REGISTER
The Table Latch (TABLAT) is an 8-bit register mapped
into the SFR space. The Table Latch register is used to
hold 8-bit data during data transfers between program
memory and data RAM.
6.2.3TBLPTR – TABLE POINTER
REGISTER
The Table Poi nte r (TBLPTR) register addresses a by te
within the program memory. The TBLPTR is comprised
of three SFR registers : Table Pointer Upper Byte, Table
Pointer High Byte and Table Pointer Low Byte
(TBLPTRU:TBLPTRH:TBLPTRL). These three registers join to form a 22-bit wide pointer. The low order
21 bits allow the device to address up to 2 Mbytes of
program memory space. Setting the 22nd bit allows
access to the device ID, the user ID and the
configuration bit s.
The table pointer, TBLPTR, is used by the TBLRD and
TBLWT instructions. These instructions can update the
TBLPTR in one of four ways based on the table operation. These operations are shown in Table 6-1. These
operations on the TBLPTR only affect the low order
21 bits.
6.2.4 TABLE POINTER BOUNDARIES
TBLPTR is used in reads, writes and erases of the
Flash program memory.
When a TBLRD is executed, all 22 bits of the Table
Pointer determine which byte is read from program or
configuration memory into TABLAT.
When a TBLWT is executed, the three LSbs of the Table
Pointer (TBLPTR<2:0>) determine which of the eight
program memory holding registers is written to. When
the timed write to program memory (long write) begins,
the 19 MSbs of the TBLPTR (TBLPT R<21:3>) will determine which program memory block of 8 bytes is written
to (TBLPTR<2:0> are ignored). For more detail, see
Section 6.5 “Writing to Flash Program Memory”.
When an erase of program memory is executed, the
16 MSbs of the T able Poi nter (TBLPT R<21:6>) p oint to
the 64-byte block that will be erased. The Least
Significant bits (TBLPTR<5:0>) are ignored.
Figure 6-3 describes the relevant boundaries of
TBLPTR based on Flash program memory operations.

The TBLRD instruction is used to retrieve data from
program memory and place it into data RAM. Table

words. The Least Significant b it of th e address selects
between the high and low bytes of the word. Figure 6-4

reads from program memory are pe rformed one by te at
a time.
TBLPTR points to a byte address in program space.
Executing a TBLRD instruction places the byte pointed
to into TABLAT. In addition, TBLPTR can be modified
automatically for the next table read operation.

6.4Erasing Flash Program Memory
The minimum erase block size is 32 words or 64 bytes
under firmware control. Only through the use of an
external programmer, or through ICSP control, can
larger blocks of program memory be bulk eras ed. Word
erase in Flash memory is not supported.
When initiating an erase sequence from the microcontroller itself, a blo ck of 64 bytes of program memo ry
is erased. The Most Significant 16 bits of the
TBLPTR<21:6> point to the block being erased;
TBLPTR<5:0> are ignored.
The EECON1 register comma nds the erase operation.
The EEPGD bit must be set to point to the Flash program memory. The CFGS bit must be clear to access
program Flash and data EEPROM memory. The
WREN bit must be set to enable write operations. The
FREE bit is set to select an erase operation. The WR
bit is set as part of the required instruction sequence
(as shown in Example 6-2) and starts the actual erase
operation. It is not necessary to load the TABLAT
register with any data as it is ignored.
For protection, the write initiate sequence using
EECON2 must be used.
A long write is nec essa ry for erasin g the i nternal Flash.
Instruction execution is halted while in a long write
cycle. The long write will be terminated by the internal
programming timer.
6.4.1FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY
ERASE SEQUENCE
The sequence of events for erasing a block of internal
program memory location is:
1.Load Table Pointer with address of row being
erased.
2.Set the EECON1 register for the erase operation:
• set EEPGD bit to point to program
memory;
• clear the CFGS bit to access program
memory;
• set WREN bit to enable writes;
• set FREE bit to enable the erase.
3.Disable interrupts.
4.Write 55h to EECON2.
5.Write AAh to EECON2.
6.Set the WR bit. This will begin the row erase
cycle.
7.The CPU will stall for duration of the erase
(about 2 ms using internal timer).
8.Execute a NOP.
9.Re-enable interrupts.

The programming block size is 4 words or 8 bytes.
Word or byte programming is not supported.
Table writ es are us ed inte rnally to load th e holdi ng registers needed to program the Flas h memory. There are
8 holding registers used by the table writes for
programming.
Since the Table Latch (TABLAT) is only a single byte,
the TBLWT instruction has to be executed 8 times for
each programming operation. All of the table write
operations will essenti ally be short wr ites becaus e only
the holding registers are w ritte n. At the end of upda ting
8 registers, the EECON1 register must be w ritten to, to
start the programming operation with a long write.
The long write is necessary for programming the internal Flash. Instruc tion exe cution is halted w hile in a long
write cycle. The long write will be terminated by the
internal programming timer.

6.5.1FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY WRITE
SEQUENCE
The sequence of events for programming an internal
program memory location should be:
1.Read 64 bytes into RAM.
2.Update data values in RAM as necessary.
3.Load Table Pointer with address being erased.
4.Do the row erase procedure (see Section 6.4.1
“Flash Program Memory Erase Sequence”).
5.Load Table Pointer with address of first byte
being written.
6.Write the first 8 bytes into the holding registers
with auto-increment.
7.Set the EECON1 register for the w rite operation:
• set EEPGD bit to point to program
memory;
• clear the CFGS bit to access program
memory;
• set WREN bit to enable byte writes.
8.Disable interrupts.
9.Write 55h to EECON2.
10. Write AAh to EECON2.
1 1. Set the WR bit. This will begin the write cycle.
12. The CPU will stall for dura tion of t he write (about
2 ms using internal timer).
13. Execute a NOP.
14. Re-enable interrupts.
15. Repeat steps 6-14 seven times, to write 64
bytes.
16. Verify the memory (table read).
This procedure will require about 18 ms to update one
row of 64 bytes of memory. An example of the required
code is given in Example 6-3.

EXAMPLE 6-3:WRITING TO FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY (CONTINUED)
Depending on the application, good programming
practice may dictate that the value written to the memory should be verified against the original value. This
should be used in applications where excessive writes
can stress bits near the specification limit.

(Section 23.5 “Program Verification and Code Pro-tection”) for details on code protection of Flash
program memory.

WRITE OPERATION
If a write is termin ate d b y a n u npl anned event, such a s
loss of power or an unexpected Reset, the memory
location just pr ogrammed shou ld be verifi ed and rep rogrammed if needed. The WRERR bit is set when a
write oper ation is interr upted by a MCLR
Reset, or a
WDT Time-out Reset, during normal operation. In
these situations, users can check the WRERR bit and
rewrite the location.

7.0DATA EEPROM MEMORY
The data EEPROM is re adable and writ able durin g normal operation over the entire V
memory is not directly mapped in the register file
space. Instead, it is indirectly addressed through the
Special Function Registers (SFR).
There are four SFRs used to read and write the
program and data EEPROM memory. These registers
are:
• EECON1
• EECON2
• EEDA TA
• EEADR
The EEPROM data memory allows byte read and write.
When interfacing to the data memory block, EEDATA
holds the 8-bit data for read/write and EEADR holds the
address of the EEPROM location being accessed.
These devices have 256 bytes of data EEPROM with
an address range from 00h to FFh.
The EEPROM data memory is rated for high erase/w rite
cycle endurance. A byte write automatically erases the
location and writes the new data (erase-before-write). The
write time is controlled by an on-chip timer. The write time
will vary with voltage and temperature, as well as from
chip to chip. Please refer to parameter D122 (Table 26-1
in Section 26.0 “Electrical Ch aracteristics”) for exact
limits.
7.1 EEADR
The address register can address 256 bytes of data
EEPROM.
7.2EECON1 and EECON2 Registers
EECON1 is the control register for memory accesses.
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2
will read all ‘0’s. The EECON2 register is used
exclusively in the memory write and erase sequences.
Control bit EEPGD determines if the access will be to
program or data EEPROM memory. When clear, operations will access the data EEPROM memory. When
set, program memory is accessed.
DD range. The data
Control bit CFGS determines if the access will be to the
configuration registers or to program memory/data
EEPROM memory. When set, subsequent operations
access configuration registers. When CFGS is clear,
the EEPGD bit selects either program Flash or data
EEPROM memory.
The WREN bit enables and disables erase and write
operations. When set, erase and write operations are
allowed. When clear, erase and write operations are
disabled; the WR bit ca nno t be s et whi le t he WREN b it
is clear. This mechanism helps to prevent accidental
writes to memory due to errant (unexpected) code
execution.
Firmware should keep the WREN bit clear at all times
except when starting erase or write operations. Once
firmware has set the WR bit, the WREN bit may be
cleared. Clearing the WREN bit will not affect the
operation in progress.
The WRERR bit is set when a write operation is interrupted by a Reset. In these situations, the user can
check the WRERR b it and rewrite the locati on. It is necessary to reload the data and address registers
(EEDATA and EEADR), as these registers have
cleared as a result of the Reset.
Control bits, RD and WR, start read and erase/write
operations, respec tively . These bits a re set by firmwa re
and cleared by hardware at the completion of the
operation.
The RD bit cannot be set when accessing program
memory (EEPGD = 1). Program memory is read using
table read instructions. See Section 6.1 “T able Read s
and Table Writes” regarding table reads.
Note:Interrupt flag bit, EEIF in the PIR2 regi ster,
is set when write is complete. It must be
cleared in software.

7.3Reading the Data EEPROM
Memory
T o read a d ata memory loca tion, the user must write the
address to the EEADR register, clear the EEPGD control bit (EECON1<7>) and then set control bit, RD
(EECON1<0>). The data is available for the very next
instruction cycle; therefore, the EEDATA register can
be read by the next instruction. EEDATA will hold this
value until another re ad opera tion o r unt il it is writ ten to
by the user (during a write operation).
7.4Writing to the Data EEPROM
Memory
To write an EEPROM data location, the address must
first be written to the EEADR register and the data
written to the EEDATA register. The sequence in
Example 7-2 must be followed to in itiate the write cycle.
The write will not begin if this sequence is not exactly
followed (write 55h to E ECON2, write AAh to EECON2,
then set WR bit) for each byte. It is strongly recommended that interrupts be disabled during this
code segment.
Additionally, the WREN bit in EECON1 must be set to
enable writes. This mechanism prevents accidental
writes to data EEPROM due to unexpected code execution (i.e., runaway programs). The WREN bit should
be kept clear at all times except when updating the
EEPROM. The WREN bit is not cleared by hardware.
After a write sequence has been initiated, EECON1,
EEADR and EEDATA cannot be modified. The WR bit
will be inhibited from being set unless the WREN bit is
set. The WREN bit must be set on a previous instruction. Both WR and WREN c an not be se t with th e s am e
instruction.
At the completion of the write cycle, the WR bit is
cleared in hardware and the EEPROM Interrupt Flag b it
(EEIF) is set. The user may either enable this interrupt
or poll this bit. EEIF must be cleared by software.
7.5Write Verify
Depending on the application, good programming
practice may dictate that the value written to the memory should be verified against the original value. This
should be used in applications where excessive writes
can stress bits near the specification limit.
7.6Protection Against Spurious Write
There are conditions when the device may not want to
write to the data EEPROM memory. To protect against
spurious EEPROM writes, various mechanisms have
been built-i n. On power-up, the WR EN bit is cleared.
Also, the Power-up Timer (72 ms duration) prevents
EEPROM write.
The write initiate sequence and the WREN bi t tog eth er
help prevent an accidental write during brown-out,
power glitch, or software malfunction.

7.7Operation During Code-Protect
Data EEPROM memory has its own code-protect bit s in
configuration words. External read and write operations are disabled if either of these mechanisms are
enabled.
The microcontroller i tself can both re ad and wr ite to the
internal Data EEPROM regardless of the state of the
code-protect configuration bit. Refer to Section 23.0“Special Features of the CPU” for additional
information.
7.8Using the Data EEPROM
The data EEPROM is a hi gh-endu rance, byte a ddress able array that has been optimized for the storage of
frequently changing information (e.g., program variables or other data that are updated often). Frequently
changing values will typically be updated more often
than specification D124 or D124A. If this is not the
case, an array refresh must be performed. For this
reason, variables that change infrequently (such as
constants, IDs, calibration, etc.) should be stored in
Flash program memory.
A simple data EEPROM refresh routine is shown in
Example 7-3.
Note:If data EEPROM is only used to store

An 8 x 8 hardware multiplier is included in the ALU of
the PIC18F2X20/4X20 devi ces. By making the multipl y
a hardware o perati on, i t compl etes in a sing le in struction cycle. This is an unsigned multiply that gives a
16-bit result. The result is stored into the 16-bit product
register pair (PR ODH:PRODL). The m ultip lier d oes not

• Higher computational throughput
• Reduces code size requirements for multiply
algorithms
The performance incre ase allows the device to be used

Example 8-3 shows the sequence to do a 16 x 16
unsigned multiply. Equation 8-1 shows the algorithm
that is used. The 32-bit re sult is st ored in four re gisters,
RES3:RES0.
Example 8-4 shows the sequence to do a 16 x 16

used. The 32-bit result is stored in four registers,

is tested and the appropriate subtractions are done.
The PIC18F2320/4320 devices have multiple interrupt
sources and an interrupt priority feature that allows
each interrupt source to be assigned a high priority
level or a low priority level. The high priority interrupt
vector is at 000008h and the low prio rity interrupt vector
is at 000018h. High priority interrupt events will
interrupt any low priority interrupts that may be in
progress.
There are ten registers which are used to control
interrupt operation. These registers are:
• RCON
•INTCON
• INTCON2
• INTCON3
• PIR1, PIR2
• PIE1, PIE2
• IPR1, IPR2
It is recommended that the Microchip header files
supplied with MPLAB
names in these registers. This allows the assembler/
compiler to automatical ly ta ke care of the pla ceme nt of
these bits within the specified register.
In general, each interrupt source has three bits to
control its operation. The functions of these bits are:
• Flag bit to indicate that an interrupt event
occurred
• Enable bit that allows program execution to
branch to the interrupt vector address when the
flag bit is set
• Priority bit to select high priority or low priority
(most interrupt sources have priority bits)
The interrupt priority feature is enabled by setting the
IPEN bit (RCON<7>). When interrupt priority is
enabled, there are two bits which enable interrupts
globally . Setti ng the GIEH bit (INTC ON<7>) enable s all
interrupts that have the priority bit set (high priority).
Setting the GIEL bit (INTCON<6>) enables all interrupts that have the priority bit cleared (low priority).
When the interrupt flag, enable bit and appropriate
global interrupt enable bit are set, the interrupt wi ll vector immediately to address 000008h or 000018h,
depending on the priority bit setting. Individual interrupts can be disabled through their corresponding
enable bits.
®
IDE be used for the symb olic bit
When the IPEN bit is cleared (default state), the
interrupt priority feature is disabled and interrupts are
compatible with PICmicro
patibility mode, th e interrupt priority bits for each sourc e
have no effect. INTCON<6> is the PEIE bit which
enables/disables all peripheral interrupt sources.
INTCON<7> is the GIE bit which enables/disables all
interrupt sources. All interrupts branch to address
000008h in Compatibility mode.
When an interrupt is responded to, the global interrupt
enable bit is cleared to disable further interrupts. If the
IPEN bit is cleared, this is the GIE bit. If interru pt priority
levels are used, this wi ll be either the GIEH or G IEL bit.
High priority interrupt sources can interrupt a low
priority interrupt. Low priority interrupts are not
processed while high priority interrupts are in progress.
The return address is pushed onto the stack and the
PC is loaded with the interrupt vector address
(000008h or 000018h). Once in the Interrupt Service
Routine, the source(s) of the interrupt can be determined by polling the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt
flag bits must be cleared in s oftware be fore re-enab ling
interrupts to avoid recursive interrupts.
The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits
the interrupt routine and set s the GIE bit (GIEH or GI EL
if priority levels are used) which re-enables interrupts.
For external interrupt events, such as the INT pins or
the PORTB input chang e interrupt, the i nterrupt latenc y
will be three to four instruction cycles. The exact
latency is the same for one or two-cycle instructions.
Individual interrupt flag bits are set regardless of the
status of their corresponding enable bit or the GIE bit.
Note:Do not use the MOVFF instruction to modify
any of the interrupt control registers while
any interrupt is enabled. Doing so may
cause erratic microcontroller behavior.

9.3PIE Registers
The PIE registers contain the individual enable bits for
the peripheral interrupts. Due to the number of peripheral interrupt sources, there are two Peripheral Interrupt Enable registe rs (PIE1, PIE2). Wh en IPEN = 0, the
PEIE bit must be set to enable any of these peripheral
interrupts.

9.4IPR Registers
The IPR registers contain the individual priority bits for
the peripheral interrupts. Due to the number of peripheral interrupt sources, there are two Peripheral Interrupt Priority registers (IPR1, IPR2). Using the priority
bits requires that the In terrupt Priority Enabl e (IPEN) bit
be set.
