1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW

This document cont a ins dev ice -specific information for the following devices:
• PIC18F2525 • PIC18LF2525
• PIC18F2620 • PIC18LF2620
• PIC18F4525 • PIC18LF4525
• PIC18F4620 • PIC18LF4620
This family offers the advantages of all PIC18 microcontrollers – namely, high computational perfor­mance at an economical price – with the addition of high-endurance, Enhanced Flash program memory. On top of these features, the PIC18F2525/2620/4525/ 4620 family introduces design enhancements that make these microcontrollers a logical choice for many high-performance, power sensitive applications.

1.1 New Core Features

1.1.1 nanoWatt TECHNOLOGY

All of the devices in the PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 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 core disabled but the peripherals still active. In these st ates, powe r consumpt ion can be reduced even further, to as little as 4%, of normal operation requirements.
On-the-Fly Mode Switching: The power- managed modes a re invo ked b y user code durin g operation, allowing the user to incorporate power-saving ideas into their application’s software design.
Low Consumption in Key Modules: The power requirements for both Timer1 and the Watchdog Timer are minimized. See Section 26.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for values.

1.1.2 MULTIPLE OSCILLATOR OPTIONS AND FEATURES

All of the devices in the PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 family offer ten different oscillator options, allowing users a wide range o f choices i n develo ping applica tion 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
an 8 MHz clock and an INTRC source (approximately 31 kHz), as well as a range of 6 user-selectable clock freq uen cies, between 125 kHz to 4 MHz, for a total of 8 clock frequencies. This option f ree s th e t w o os ci ll at or pins for use a s additional general purpose I/O.
• A Phase Lock Loop (PLL) frequency multiplier ,
available to both the High-Speed C rystal and Inter­nal Oscillator modes, which allows clock speeds of up to 40 MHz. Used with the internal oscillator, the PLL gives users a complete selection of clock speeds, from 31 kHz to 32 MHz – all without using an external crystal or clock circuit.
Besides its ava ilability as a cloc k source, the intern al oscillator block pro vid es a s t ab le re ference 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.
T wo-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.

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620

1.2 Other 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 rout ine 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.
Extended Instruction Set: The PIC18F2525/ 2620/4525/4620 family introduces an optional extension to the PIC18 ins truction set, whic h adds 8 new instructions and an Indexed Addressing mode. This extension, enabled as a device con­figuration option, has been specifically designed to optimize re-entrant application code originally developed in high-level languages, such as C.
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- sh ut d ow n, for disabling PWM output s on interrup t or other selec t conditions and auto-restart, to reactivate outputs once the condition has cleared.
Enhanced Addressable USART: This serial communication module is capable of standard RS-232 operation an d provides support for th e LIN bus protocol. Other enhancements include automatic baud rate detection and a 16-bit Baud Rate Generator for improved resolu tion. When the microcontroller is using the internal oscillator block, the EUSART provides stable operation for applications that talk to the outside world without using an external crystal (or its accompanying power requirement).
10-Bit A/D Converter: This module incorporates programmable acquisition time, allowing for a channel to be selected and a conversion to be initiated withou t wai ting for a sampling perio d and thus, reducing code overhead.
Extended Watchdog Timer (WDT): This enhanced version in corpora tes a 1 6-bit pre scale r, allowing an exte nded time-o ut rang e that is s ta ble across operating voltage and temperature. See Section 26.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for time-out periods.

1.3 Details on Individual Family Members

Devices in the PIC18F 2525/2620 /4525/4620 famil y are available in 28-pin and 40/44-pin packages. Block diagrams for the two groups are shown in Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2.
The devices are differentiated from each other in five ways:
1. Flash program memory (48Kbytes for
PIC18FX525 devices, 64Kbytes for PIC18FX620 devices).
2. A/D channels (10 for 28-pin devices, 13 for
40/44-pin devices).
3. I/O ports (3 bidirectio nal ports on 28 -pin devices,
5 bidirectional ports on 40/44-pin devices).
4. CCP and Enhanced CCP implementation
(28-pin devices have 2 standard CCP mod ules, 40/44-pin devices have one standard CCP module and one ECCP module).
5. Parallel Slave Port (present only on 40/44-pin
devices).
All other features fo r device s in this family are identi cal. These are summarized in Table1-1.

2.2 Crystal Oscil lator/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 manufacturer’s specifications.

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 may be used f or t est pu r pos es or t o sy nc hr o niz e o t he r logic. Figure 2-3 shows the pin connections for the EC Oscillator mode.

2.4 RC Oscillator

For timing insensitive applications, the “RC” and “RCIO” device options offer additional cost savings. The actual oscillator frequency is a function of several factors:
• supply voltage
• values of the external resistor (R capacitor (C
EXT)
• operating temperature
Given the same device, operating voltage and tempera­ture and component values, there will also be unit-to-unit frequency variations. These are due to factors such as:
• normal manufacturing variation
• difference in lead frame capacitance between package types (especially for low C
• variati ons within th e tolerance of limits of R
EXT
and C
In the RC Oscillator mode, the oscillator frequency divided by 4 is available on the OSC2 pin. This signal may be used f or t est pu r pos es or t o sy nc hr o niz e o t he r logic. Figure 2-5 shows how the R/C combination is connected.

2.5 PLL Frequency Multiplier

A Phase Locked Loop (PLL) circuit is provided as an option for users who wish to use a lower frequency 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 or users who require higher clock speeds from an internal oscillator.

2.5.1 HSPLL OSCILLATOR MODE

The HSPLL mode makes use of the HS Oscillator mode for frequencies up to 10 MHz. A PLL then multi­plies the oscilla tor outpu t frequen cy by 4 to produ ce an internal clock frequency up to 40 MHz. The PLLEN bit is not available in this oscillator mode.
The PLL is only available to the crystal oscillator when the FOSC3:FOSC0 Con figuration bit s are prog rammed for HSPLL mode (= 0110).
FIGURE 2-7: PLL BLOCK DIAGRAM
(HS MODE)
The RCIO Oscillator mode (Figure 2-6) functions like the RC mode, except that the OSC2 pin becomes an additional general purpose I/O pin. The I/O pin becomes bit 6 of PORTA (RA6).

2.5.2 PLL AND INTOSC

The PLL is also ava ilabl e to th e inte rnal os cill ator bl ock in selected oscillator modes. In this configuration, the PLL is enabled in software and generates a clock output of up to 32MHz. The operation of INTOSC with the PLL is describ ed in Sec tion 2.6.4 “PLL in INTOSC
Modes”.
PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620

2.6 Internal Oscillator Block

The PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices include an internal oscillator block which generates two different clock signals; either can be used as the microcontroller’s clock source. This may eliminate the need for external oscillator circuits on the OSC1 and/or OSC2 pins.
The main output (INTOSC) is an 8MHz clock source, which can be used to directly drive the device clock. It also drives a postscaler, which can provide a range of clock frequencies from 31 kHz to 4 MHz. The INTOSC output is enabled when a clock fre quency from 12 5 kHz to 8 MHz is selected.
The other clock source is the Internal RC oscillator (INTRC), which provides a nominal 31 kHz output. INTRC is enabled if it is selected as the device clock source; it is also ena bled autom atically when an y of the following are enabled:
• Power-up Timer
• Fail-Safe Clock Monitor
• Watchdog Timer
• Two-Speed 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 30).

2.6.1 INTIO MODES

Using the internal oscillator as the clock source eliminates the need for up to two external oscillator pins, 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 and output.
• In INTIO2 mode, OSC1 functions as RA7 and OSC2 functions as RA6, both for digital input and output.

2.6.2 INTOSC OUTPUT FREQUENCY

The internal oscillator block is calibrated at the factory to produce an INTOSC output frequency of 8.0 MHz.
The INTRC oscillator operates independently of the INTOSC source. Any changes in INTOSC across voltage and temperature are not necessarily reflected by changes in INTRC and vice versa.

2.6.3 OSCTUNE REGISTER

The internal oscillator’s output has been calibrated at the factory but can be adjusted in the user’s applica­tion. This is do ne by writi ng to the OSCT UNE regist er (Register 2-1). The tuning sensitivity is constant throughout the tuning range.
OSC/4,
When the OSCTUNE regis ter is mo di fied , the IN T O SC frequency will begin shifting to the new frequency. The INTRC clock will reach the new frequency within 8 clock cycles (approxima tely 8 * 32 μs=256μs). The INTOSC clock will stabilize within 1 ms. Code execu­tion continues during this shift. There is no indication that the shift has occurred.
The OSCTUNE register also implements the INTSRC and PLLEN bits, which control certain features of the internal oscillator block. The INTSRC bit allows users to select which internal oscillator provides the clock source when the 31 kHz frequency option is selected. This is covered in greater detail in Section 2.7.1 “Oscillator Control Register”.
The PLLEN bit controls the operation of the frequency multiplier, PLL, in internal oscillator modes.

2.6.4 PLL IN INTOSC MODES

The 4x frequency multiplier can be used with the internal oscillator block to produce faster device clock speeds than are normally possible with an internal oscillator. When enabled, the PLL produces a clock speed of up to 32MHz.
Unlike HSPLL mode, the PLL is controlled through software. The control bit, PLLEN (OSCTUNE<6>), is used to enable or disable its operation.
The PLL is available when the device is configured to use the internal oscillator block as its primary clock source (FOSC3:FOSC0 = 1001 or 1000). Additionally, the PLL will only function when the selected output fre­quency is either 4 MHz or 8 MHz (OSCCON<6:4> = 111 or 110). If both of these conditions are not met, the PLL is disabled.
The PLLEN control bit is only functional in those inter­nal oscillator modes where the PLL is available. In all other modes, it is forced to ‘0’ and is effectively unavailable.

2.6.5 INTOSC FREQUENCY DRIFT

The factory calibrates the internal oscillator block output (INTOSC) for 8 MHz. However, this frequency may drift as V 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 no effect on the INTRC clock source frequency.
Tuning the INTOSC source requires knowing when to make the adjustment, in which direction it should be made, and in some cases, how large a change is needed. Three compensation techniques are discussed in Section 2.6.5.1 “Compensating with
the EUSART”, Section 2.6.5.2 “Compensating with the Timers” and Section2.6.5.3 “Compensating with the CCP Module in Capture Mode”, but other
techniques may be used.

2.6.5.1 Compensating with the EUSART
An adjustment may be required when the EUSART begins to generate frami ng errors or rec eive s dat a with errors while in Asynchronous mode. Framing errors indicate that the device clock frequency is too high; to adjust for this, decrement the value in OSCTUNE to reduce the clock frequency. On the other hand, errors in data may suggest that the clock speed is too low; to compensate, increment OSCTUNE to increase the clock frequency.
2.6.5.2 Compensating with the Timers
This technique compares device 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 timer clocked by the reference generates interrupts. When 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 ru nning too fast. To adjust for this, decr ement the OSCTUNE register.
2.6.5.3 Compensating with the CCP Module 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 ti me of the first ev ent is capt ured 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 internal oscillator block is running too fast; to compensate, decrement the OSCTUNE register. If the measured time is much less than the calculated time, the internal oscillator block is running too slow; to compensate, increment the OSCTUNE register.

2.7 Clock Sources and Oscillator Switching

Like previous PIC18 devices, the PIC18F2525/2620/ 4525/4620 family includes a feature that allows the device clock source to be switched from the main oscillator to an alternate, low-frequency clock source. PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices offer two alternate clock sources. When an alternate clock source is enabled, the various power-managed operating modes are available.
Essentially, there are three clock sources for these devices:
• Primary oscillators
• Secondary oscillators
• Internal oscillator block
The primary oscillators include the Ex ternal Crystal and Resonator modes, the External RC modes, the External Clock modes and the internal oscillator block. The particular mode is defined by the FOSC3:FOSC0 Configuration bits. The details of these modes are covered earlier in this chapter.
The s econdary oscillators 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.
PIC18F2525/2620/452 5/46 20 d ev ic es o f fe r the Timer1 oscillator as a secon dary oscilla tor . This osc illator , in all power-managed modes, is often the time base for functions such as a Real-Time Clock (RTC).
Most often, a 32.768 kHz watch crystal is connected between the RC0/T1OSO/T13CKI and RC1/T1OSI pins. Like the LP Oscillator mode circuit, loading capacitors are also connected from each pin to ground.
The Timer1 oscillator is discussed in greater detail in Section 12.3 “Timer1 Oscillator”.
In addition to being a prim ary clock source, the internal oscillator block is available as a power-managed mode clock source. T he IN TR C s ource is also used as the clock source for several special features, such as the WDT and Fail-Safe Clock Monitor.
The clock sources for the PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices are shown in Figure 2-8. See Section 23.0 “Special Features of the CPU” for Configuration register details.

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620

2.7.1 OSCILLA TOR CONTROL REGISTER

The OSCCON register (Register 2-2) controls several aspects of the device clock’s operation, both in full-power operation and in power-managed modes.
The System Clock Select bits, SCS1:SCS0, select the clock source. The available clock sources are the primary clock (defined by the FOSC3:FOSC0 Configu­ration bits), the secondary clock (Timer1 oscillator) and the internal oscillator block. The clock source changes immediately after one or more of the bits is written to, following a brief clock transition interval. The SCS bits are cleared on all forms of Reset.
The Internal Oscillator Frequency Select bits (IRCF2:IRCF0) select the frequency output of the internal oscillator block to drive the device clock. The choices are the INTRC source, the INTOSC source (8 MHz) or one of the frequencies derived from the INTOSC postscaler (31.25 kHz to 4 MHz). If the internal oscillator block is supplying the device clock, changing the states of these bits will have an immedi­ate change on the internal oscillator’s output. On device Resets, the default output frequency of the internal oscillator block is set at 1 MHz.
When a nominal ou tput frequenc y of 31 kHz is selected (IRCF2:IRCF0 = 000), users may choose which inter­nal oscillator acts as the source. This is done with the INTSRC bit in the OSCTUNE register (OSCTUNE<7>). Setting this bit selects INTOSC as a 31.25 kHz clock source by enabling the divide-by-256 output of the INTOSC postscaler. Clearing INTSRC sel ects INTRC (nominally 31 kHz) as the clock source.
This option allows users to select the tunable and more precise INTOSC as a clock source, while maintaining power savings with a ve ry low clock speed. R egardless of the setting of INTSRC, INTRC always remains the clock source for features such as the Watchdog Timer and the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor.
The OSTS, IOFS and T1RUN bits indicate which cl ock source is currently providing the device clock. The OSTS bit indicates that the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) has timed out and the prim ary clock is providing the device clock in primary clock modes. The IOFS bit indicates when the internal oscillator block has stabi­lized and is providing the device clock in RC Clock modes. The T1RUN bit (T1CON<6>) indicates when the Timer1 oscillator is providing the device clock in secondary clock modes. In power-managed modes, only one of these three bits will be set at any time. If none of these bits are set, the INTRC is providing the clock or the internal o scillator bl ock has just s tarted and is not yet stable.
The IDLEN bit dete rmines if th e dev ice go es in to Slee p mode or one of the Idle modes when the SLEEP instruction is executed.
The use of the flag and control bits in the OSCCON register 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 at tem pt to se lec t a secondary clock source will be ignore d.
2: It is recommended that the Timer1
oscillator be operating and stable before selecting the secondary clock source or a very long delay may occur while the Timer1 oscillator starts.

2.7.2 OSCILLATOR TRANSITIONS

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices contain circuitry to prevent clock “glitches” when switching between clock sources. A short p ause in the device cl ock occurs during the clock switch. The length of this pause is the sum of two cycles of the old clock source and three to four cycles of the new clock source. This formula assumes that the new clock source is stable.
Clock transitions are discussed in greater detail in Section 3.1.2 “Entering Power-Managed Modes”.

2.8 Effects of Power-Managed Modes on the Various Clock Sources

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 oscil lating.
In secondary clock modes (SEC_RUN and SEC_IDLE), the Timer1 oscillator is operating and providing the device clock. The Timer1 oscillator may also 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 device clock source. The 31kHz INTRC output can be used d irectl y to provide the clock and may be enabled to support various special features, regardless of the power­managed mode (see Section 23.2 “Watchdog Timer
(WDT)”, Section 23.3 “Two-Speed Start-up” and Section 23.4 “Fail-Safe Clock Monitor” for more
information on WDT, Fail-Safe Clock Monitor and Two­Speed Start-up). The IN TOSC output at 8 MHz may be used directly to clock the device or may be divided down by the posts caler . The INTO SC output is disable d if the 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 increas e the current cons umed during S leep. The INTRC is required to support WDT operation. The Timer1 oscillator may be operating to support a Real-
Time Clock. Other features may be operating that do not require a device clock source (i.e., MSSP slave, PSP, INTx pins and others). Peripherals that may add significant current consumption are listed in
Section 26.2 “DC Characteristics”.

2.9 Power-up Delays

Power-up delays are controlled by two tim ers, so that no external Reset circuitry is required for most applications. The delays ensure that the device is kept in Reset until the device power supply is stable under normal circum­stances and the primary clock is operating and stable. For additional information on power-up delays, see Section 4.5 “Device Reset Timers”.
The first timer is the Power-up Timer (PWRT), which provides a fixed delay on power-up (parameter 33, Table 26-10). It is enabled by clearing (= 0) the PWRTEN
The second timer is the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST), intended to keep the chip in Reset 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 interval, T Table 26-10), following POR, while the controller becomes ready to execute instruc tions. This delay runs concurrently with any other delays. This may be the only delay that occurs when an y of the EC, RC or INTIO modes are used as the primary clock source.

3.0 POWER-MANAGED MODES

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices offer a total of seven operating modes for more efficient power management. These modes provide a variety of options for selective p ower conservation i n applications where resources may be limited (i.e., battery-powered devices).
There are three categories of power-managed modes:
• Run modes
• Idle modes
• Sleep mode
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 internal oscillator block); the Sleep mode does not use a clock source.
The power-managed modes include several power­saving features of fered on p reviou s PIC is the clock switching feature, offered in other PIC18 devices, allowing the controller to use the Timer1 oscil­lator in place of the primary oscillator. Also included is the Sleep mode, offered by all PIC devices, where all device clocks are stopped.

3.1 Selecting Power-Managed Modes

Selecting a power-managed mode requires two decisions: if the CPU is to be clocked or not and the selection of a clock source. The IDLEN bit (OSCCON<7>) controls CPU clocking, while the SCS1:SCS0 bits (OSCCON<1:0>) select the clock source. The individual modes, bit settings, clock sources and affected modules are summarized in Table 3-1.

devices. One

3.1.1 CLOCK SOURCES

The SCS1:SCS0 bits allow the sele ction of one o f three clock sources for power-managed modes. They are:
• the primary clock, as defined by the FOSC3:FOSC0 Configuration bits
• the secondary clock (the Timer1 oscillator)
• the internal oscillator block (for RC modes)
3.1.2 ENTERING POWER-MANAGED
MODES
Switching from one power-managed mode to another begins by loading the OSCCON register. The SCS1:SCS0 bits selec t the clock sourc e and determin e which Run or Idle mode is to be used. Changing these bits causes an immediate switch to the new clock source, assuming that it is running. The switch may also be sub ject to clock tr ansition delays. T hese are discussed in Section 3.1.3 “Clock Transitions and Status Indicators” and subsequent sections.
Entry to the power-managed Idle or Sleep modes is triggered by the execution of a SLEEP instruction. The actual mode that results depends on the status of the IDLEN bit.
Depending on the current mode and the mode being switched to, a change to a power-managed mode does not always require setting all of these bits. Many transitions may be done by changing the oscillator s elect bits, or changing the IDLEN bit, prior to issuing a SLEEP instruction. If the IDLEN bit is already configured correctly, it may only be necessary to perform a SLEEP instruction to switch to the desired mode.

3.1.3 CLOCK T RANSITIONS AND S TAT US INDICATORS

The length of the transition between clock sources is the sum of two cycles o f the old clo ck so urce an d three to four cycles of the ne w clock source. Thi s formula assumes that the new clock source is stable.
Three bits indicate the current clock source and its status. They are:
• OSTS (OSCCON<3>)
• IOFS (OSCCON<2>)
• T1RUN (T1CON<6>)
In general, only one of these bits will be set while in a given power-managed mode. When the OSTS bit is set, the primary clock is providing the device clock. When the IOFS bit is set, the INTOSC output is providing a stab le, 8 MHz clock source to a divider that actually drives the device clock. When the T1RUN bit is set, the Timer1 oscillator is providing the clock. If none of these bits are set, then either the INTRC clock source is cloc ki ng t he dev ic e, o r th e INTOSC source is not yet stable.
If the internal oscillator block is configured as the primary clock source by the FOSC3:FOSC0 Configuration bits, 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 another power-managed RC mode at the same frequency would clear the OSTS bit.

single IRCF bit. I f V possible to select a higher clock speed than is supported by the low VDD. Improper device operation may result if

3.1.4 MULTIPLE SLEEP COMMANDS

The power-managed mode that is invoked with the SLEEP instruction is determined by the setting of the IDLEN bit at the time the instruction is executed. If another SLEEP instruction is executed, the device will enter the power-ma nag ed mo de s pe ci fie d by ID L EN at that time. If IDLEN has changed, the device will enter the new power-managed mode specified by the new setting.

3.2 Run Modes

In the Run modes, clocks to both the core and peripherals are active. The difference between these modes is the clock source.

3.2.1 PRI_RUN MODE

The PRI_RUN mode is the normal, full-power execu­tion mode of the micr ocontroll er . Th is is also t he defau lt mode upon a devi ce Res et unless Two-Speed Start-up is enabled (see Section 23.3 “Two-Speed Start-up” for details). In this m ode, the OSTS bi t is set. Th e IOFS bit may be set if the internal oscillator block is the primary clock source (see Section 2.7.1 “Oscillator Control Register”).

3.2.2 SEC_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 os cillator. This gives users the option of lower power consumption w hile still u sing a high-accuracy clock source.
SEC_RUN mode is entered by setting the SCS1:SCS0 bits to ‘01’. The device clock source is switched to the Timer1 oscillator (see Figure3-1), 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 the SCS1:SCS0 bits are set to ‘01’, entry to SEC_RUN mode will not occur. If the Timer1 oscillator is enabled, but not yet running, devic e cloc ks will be de layed u ntil the oscillator has started. In such situa­tions, initial oscillator operation is far from stable and unpredictable operation may result.
On transitions from SEC_RUN mode to PRI_RUN, the peripherals and CPU continue to be clocked from the Timer1 oscillator while the primary clock is started. When the primary clo ck bec omes r eady, a clock switch back to the primary clock occurs (see Figure 3-2). When the clock switch is complete, the T1RUN bit is cleared, the OSTS bit is set and the primary clock is providing the clock. The IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up; the Timer1 oscillator continues to run.

3.2.3 RC_RUN MODE

In RC_RUN mode, the CPU and peripherals are clocked from the internal oscillator block using the INTOSC multiplexer. In this mode, the primary clock is shut down. When using the INTRC source, this mode provides the best power conservation of all the Run modes, while still executing code. It works well for user applications which are not hi ghly timing sensitive or do not require high-speed clocks at all times.
If the primary clock source is the internal oscillator block (either INTRC or INTOSC), 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.
© 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39626E-page 35
This mode is entered by setting the SCS1 bit to ‘1’. Although it is ignored, it is rec ommended that the SCS0 bit also be cleared; this is to maintain software compat­ibility with future devices. When the clock source is switched to the INTOSC multiplexer (see Figure 3-3), 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 clock speed.
Note: Caution should be used when modifying 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 V
DD.
Improper device operation may result if the V

If the IRCF bits and the INTSRC bit are all clear, the INTOSC output is not enabled and the IOFS bit will remain clear; there will be no indication of the current clock source. The INTRC source is providing the device clocks.
If the IRCF bits are changed from all clear (thus, enabling the INTOSC output), or if INTSRC is set, the IOFS bit becomes set after the INTOSC output becomes stable. Clocks to the device continue while the INTOSC source stabilizes after an interval of
IOBST.

On transitions from RC_RUN mode to PRI_RUN mode, the device continues to be clocked from the INTOSC multiplexer whil e the prim ary clock is st arted.

When the clock switch is complete, the IOFS bit is cleared, the OSTS bit is set and the primary clock is providing the device clock. The IDLEN and SCS bits are not af fe cte d by the switch. The INTRC source will continue to run if either the WDT or the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor is enabled.
If the IRCF bits w ere prev io us ly at a no n-z ero val ue, or if INTSRC was set before setting SCS1 and the INTOSC source was already stable, the IOFS bi t will remain set.

3.3 Sleep Mode

The power-managed Sleep mode in the PIC18F2525/ 2620/4525/4620 devices is identical to the legacy Sleep mode offered in all other PIC devices. It is entered by clearing the IDLEN bit (the default state on device Reset) and executing the SLEEP instruction. This shuts down the selected oscillator (Figure 3-5). All clock source status bits are cleared.
Entering the Sleep m ode from any other mo de does not require a clock switch. This is because no clocks are needed once the controller has entered Sleep. If the WDT is selected, the INTRC source will continue to operate. If the Timer1 oscillator is enabled, it will also continue to run.
When a wake ev ent occurs i n Sleep mo de (by int errupt, Reset or WDT time-out), the device will not be clocked until the clock source selected by the SCS1:SCS0 bits becomes ready (see Figure 3-6), or it will be clocked from the internal osc illator block if e ither the T wo-S peed Start-up or the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor are enabled (see Sec tion 23.0 “Special Features of the CPU”). In either case, the OS TS bit i s set wh en the p rimary cloc k is providing the device cl ocks. The IDLEN and SCS bit s are not affected by the w ake-up.

3.4 Idle Modes

The Idle modes allow the controller’s CPU to be selectively shut down while the peripherals continue to operate. Selecting a particular Idle mode allows users to further manage power consumption.
If the IDLEN bit i s set to a ‘1’ when a SLEEP inst ruction is executed, the periph erals will be cloc ked fro m the cloc k source selected us ing the SCS1:SCS 0 bits; howev er , the CPU will not be clocked. The clock source status bits are not affected. Setting IDLEN and executing a SLEEP instruction pr ovides a quick method of switchi ng from a given Run mo de to its correspon ding Idle mode.
If the WDT is selected, the INTRC source will continue to operate. If the T imer1 oscill ator is enable d, it will also continue to run.
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 wa ke even t occur s, CPU execution is delayed by an interval of T (parameter 38, Table 26-10) while it becomes ready to execute code. When the CPU begins executing code, it resumes with the same clock source for the current Idle mode. For example, when waking from RC_IDLE mode, the internal oscillator block will clock the CPU and peripherals (in other words, RC_RUN mode). The IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up.
While in any Idle mode or Sl eep mode, a WD T time­out will result in a WDT wake-up to the Run mode currently specified by the SCS1:SCS0 bits.

3.4.1 PRI_IDLE MODE

This mode is uni que among the thre e low-power Idle modes, in that it does not disable the primary device clock. For timing sensitive applications, this allows for the fastest resump tion of devic e operation w ith its mo re accurate pri mary clock source, si nce the cl ock source does not have to “warm-up” or transition from another oscillator.
PRI_IDLE mode is entered from PRI_RUN mode by setting the IDLEN bit and executing a SLEEP instruc­tion. If the device is in another Run mode, set IDLEN first, then clear the SCS bits and execute SLEEP. Although the CPU i s disab led, th e peri pherals cont inue to be clocked from the primary clock source specified by the FOSC3:FOSC0 Configuration bits. The OSTS bit remains set (see Figure3-7).
When a wake event occurs, the CPU is clocked from the primary clock source. A delay of interval T
CSD is
required between the wake event and when code execution starts. This is required to allo w the CPU to become ready to execut e instructions. After the wake­up, the OSTS bit remains set. The IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up (see Figure 3-8).

3.4.2 SEC_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 from SEC_RUN by
setting the IDLEN bit and executing a SLEEP instruction. If the device is in another Run mode, set the IDLEN bit first, then set the SCS1:SCS0 bits to ‘01’ and execute SLEEP. When the clock source is switched to the Timer1 oscillator, the primary oscillator is shut down, the OSTS bit is cleared and the T1RUN bit is set.
When a wake event occurs, the peripherals continue to be clocked from the Timer1 oscillator. After an interval
CSD following the wake event, the CPU b egins exe-
of T cuting code being cloc ked by the T im er1 oscil lator . Th e IDLEN and SCS bits are not affected by the wake-up; the Timer1 oscillator continues to run (see Figure3-8).
Note: The Timer1 oscillator should already be
running prior to entering SEC_IDLE mod e. If the T1OSCEN bit is not set when the SLEEP instruction is executed, the SLEEP instruction will be ignored and entry to SEC_IDLE mode will not occur. If the Timer1 oscillator is enabled but not yet running, peripheral clocks will be delayed until the oscillator has started. In such situations, initial oscillator operation is far from stable and unpredictable operation may result.

3.4.3 RC_IDLE MODE

In RC_IDLE mode, t he C PU is d is abl ed but th e p erip h­erals continue to b e c loc ke d fro m the internal oscilla t or block using the INTOSC multiplexer. This mode allows for controllable power cons ervation during Idl e periods .
From RC_RUN, this mode is entered by setting the IDLEN bit and executing a SLEEP instruction. If the device is in a nother Run mode, first s et IDLEN, th en set the SCS1 bit and execute SLEEP. Although its value is ignored, it is reco mmended that SCS0 also be cle ared; this is to maintain software compatibility with future devices. 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 mult iplexer , the primary oscillator is shut down and the OSTS bit is cleared.
If the IRCF bits are set to any non-zero value, or the INTSRC bit is set, the INTOSC output is enabled. The IOFS bit becomes set, after the INTOSC output becomes stable, after an interval of T (parameter 39, Table 26-10). Clocks to the peripherals continue while the INTOSC source stabilizes. If the IRCF bits were previously at a non-zero value, or INTSRC was set before the SLEEP instruction was executed and the INTOSC source was already stable, the IOFS bit will remain set. If the IRCF bits and INTSRC are all clear, the INTOSC output will not be enabled, the IOF S bit will remain c lear and t here will b e no indication of the current clock source.
When a wake event occurs, the peripherals continue to be clocked from the INTOSC multiplexer . After a delay of
CSD following the wake event, the CPU begins execut-
T ing code being clocked by the INTOSC multiplexer. 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 enabled.

3.5 Exiting Idle and Sleep Modes

An exit from Sleep mode or any of the Idle modes is triggered b y an interrupt , a Reset 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 “Run Modes”, Section 3.3 “Sleep Mode” and Section 3.4 “Idle Modes”).

3.5.1 EXIT BY INTERRUPT

Any of the available interrupt sources can cause the device to exit from an Idle mode or Sleep mode to a Run mode. To enable this functionality, an interrupt source must be enab led by s etti ng i t s en able bit in one of the INTCON or PIE registers. The exit sequence is initiated when the c orresponding interrupt flag bit is set.
On all exits fr om Idl e or Slee p mod es b y int erru pt, code execution branches to the interrupt vector if the GIE/ GIEH bit (INTC ON<7>) is set. Otherwise, code execut ion continues or resumes without branching (see Section 10.0 “Interrupts”).
A fixed delay of inter val T is required when leaving Sleep and Idle modes. This delay is required for the CPU to prepare for execution. Instructio n execution r esumes on th e first clock c ycle following this delay.
CSD following th e wake event

3.5.2 EXIT 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 device i s not exec uti ng code (al l Idle mode s and Sleep mode), the time-out will res ul t in a n ex it fro m th e power-managed mode (see Section 3.2 “Run Modes” and Section 3.3 “Sleep Mode”). 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 ins tru ction, 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 device clock source.

3.5.3 EXIT BY RESET

Normally, the device is held in Reset by the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) until the primary clock becomes ready. At that time, the OSTS bit is set and the device begins executing code. If the internal osc il lat or bl oc k i s the new clock source, the IOFS bit is set instead.
The exit delay time from Reset to the start of code execution depends on both the clock sources before and after the wake-up and the type of oscillator if the new clock source is the primary clock. Exit delays are summarized in Table 3-2.
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 Clock Monitor”) is enabled, the device may begin execution as soon as the Reset source ha s cle are d. Execution is clocked by the INTOSC multiplexer driven by the internal oscillator block. 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.

3.5.4 EXIT WITHOUT AN OSCILLATOR START-UP DELAY

Certain exits from power-managed modes do not invoke the OST at all. There are two cases:
• 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 instances, 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 delay of interval
CSD following the wake event is still required when
T leaving Sleep and Idle modes to allow the CPU to prepare for execution. Instruction execution resumes on the first clock cycle following this delay.

4.2 Master Clear (MCLR)

The MCLR pin provides a method for triggering an external Reset of the device. A Reset is generated by holding the pin low. Thes e device s have a no ise filter i n the MCLR
Reset path which detects and ignores small
pulses. The MCLR
pin is not drive n low by any inter nal Reset s,
including the WDT. In PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices, the MCLR
input can be disabled with the MCLRE Configuration bit. When MCLR
is disabled, the pin becomes a digital
input. See Section 9.5 “PORTE, TRISE and LATE
Registers” for more information.

4.3 Power-on Reset (POR)

A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip whenever V allows the device to start in the initialized state when VDD is adequate for operation.
To take advantage of the POR circuitry, tie the MCLR pin throug h a resis tor (1 k Ω to 10 kΩ) to VDD. This wi ll eliminate external RC components usually needed to create a Power-on Re set delay. A minimum rise rate for
DD is specified (parameter D004). For a slow rise
V time, see Figure 4-2.
When the device st arts normal operati on (i.e ., ex its the Reset condition), device operating parameters (voltage, frequency, temperature, etc.) must be met to ensure operation. If these conditions are not met, the device must be held in Reset until the operating conditions are met.
POR events are captured by the POR The state of the bit is set to ‘0’ whe never a POR occurs; it does not change for any other Reset event. POR is not reset to ‘1’ by any hardware event. To capture multiple events, the user manually resets the bit to ‘1’ in software following any POR.

4.4 Brown-out Reset (BOR)

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices implement a BOR circuit that provides the user with a number of configuration and power-saving options. The BOR is controlled by the BORV1:BORV0 and BOREN1:BOREN0 Configuration bits. There a re a total of four BOR configurations which are summarized in Table 4-1.
The BOR threshold is set by t he BOR V1:BOR V0 bit s. If BOR is enabled (any values of BOREN1:BOREN0, except ‘00’), any drop of V D005) for greater than T the device. A Reset may or may not occur if V below V Brown-out Reset until V

4.4.1 SOFTWARE ENABLED BOR

When BOREN1:BOREN0 = 01, the BOR can be enabled or disabled by the user in software. This is done with the control bit, SBOREN (RCON<6>). Setting SBOREN enables the BOR to function as previously described. Clearing SBOREN disables the BOR entirely. The SBOREN bit operates only in this mode; otherwise it is read as ‘0’.

Placing the BOR under software control gives the user the additional flexibility of tailoring the application to its environment withou t ha vi ng to reprogram the devi ce to change BOR configuration. It also allows the user to tailor device power consumption in software by elimi­nating the incremental current that the BOR consumes. While the BOR current is typically very small, it may have some impact in low-power applications.
Note: Even when BOR is under softw are control,
the BOR Reset voltage level is still set by the BORV1:BORV0 Configuration bits. It cannot be changed in software.

4.4.2 DETECTING BOR

4.4.3 DISABLING BOR IN SLEEP MODE

When BOREN1:BOREN0 = 10, the BOR remains under hardware control and operates as previously described. Whenever the device enters Sleep mode, however , the BOR is au tom ati ca lly dis abl ed . When the device returns to any other operating mode, BOR is automatically re-enabled.
This mode allows for applications to recover from brown-out situations, while actively executing code, when the device requires BOR protection the most. At the same time, it save s additional po wer in Sleep mod e by eliminating the small incremental BOR current.

4.5 Device Reset Timers

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices incorporate three separate on-chip timers that help regulate the Power-on Reset process. Their main function is to ensure that the device clock is stable before code is executed. These timers are:
• Power-up Timer (PWRT)
• Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
• PLL Lock Time -out

4.5.1 POWER-UP TIMER (PWRT)

The Power-up Timer (PWRT) of PIC18F2525/2620 / 4525/4620 devices is an 11-bit counter which uses the INTRC source as the clock input. This yields an approximate time interval of 2048 x 32 μs=65.6ms. While the PWRT is counting, the device is held in Reset.
The power-up time delay depe nd s on the INTRC cl oc k and will vary from chip to chip due to temperature and process variation. See DC parameter 33 for details.
The PWRT is enabled by clearing the PWRTEN Configuration bit.

4.5.2 OSCILLA TOR START-UP TIMER (OST)

The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) provides a 1024 oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delay after the PWRT delay is ov er (par a me t er 3 3 ). T h is en su re s t ha t 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.

4.5.3 PLL 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 separate timer is used to provide a fixed time-out tha t i s su f f i cient for the PLL to lock to the main oscillator frequency. This PLL lock time-o ut (T oscillator start-up time-out.
PLL) is typically 2 ms and follows the

4.5.4 TIME-OUT SEQUENCE

On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows:
1. After the POR pulse has cleared, PWRT time-out is invoked (if enabled).
2. Then, the OST is activated.
The total time-out will vary based on oscillator configu­ration and the status of the PWRT. Figure 4-3, Figure 4-4, Figure 4-5, Figure 4-6 and Figure 4-7 all depict time-out sequences on power-up, with the Power-up Timer enabled and the device operating in HS Oscillator mode. Figures 4-3 through 4-6 also apply to devices operating in XT or LP modes. For devices in RC mode and with the PWRT di sabled, ther e will be no time-out at all.
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, if MC LR is kept low long e nough, all ti me -out s will e xpire. Brin g­ing MCLR (Figure 4-5). This is useful for testing purposes or to synchronize more than one PIC18FXXXX device operating in parallel.

5.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION

There are three types of memory in PIC18 enhanced microcontroller devices:
• Program Memory
• Data RAM
• Data EEPROM As Harvard architecture dev ices, the dat a and progra m
memories use separate busses; this allows for con­current access of the two memory spaces. The data EEPROM, for practical purposes, can be regarded as a peripheral device, since it is addresse d and accessed through a set of control registers.
Additional detailed information on the operation of the Flash program memory is provided in Section 7.0 “Flash Program Memory”. Data EEPROM is discussed s eparately in Section 6.0 “Data EEPROM
Memory”.

5.1 Program Memory Organization

PIC18 microcontrollers implement a 21-bit program counter, which is capable of addressing a 2-Mbyte program memory sp ace. Accessi ng a loca tion betwee n the upper boundary of the physically implemented memory and the 2-Mbyte address will return all ‘0’s (a NOP instruction).
The PIC18F2525 and PIC18F4525 each have 48 Kbytes of Flash memory and can store up to 24,57 6 single-word instructions. The PIC18F2620 and PIC18F4620 each have 64 Kbytes of Flash memory and can store up to 32,768 single-word instructions.
PIC18 devices have two interrupt vectors. The Reset vector address is at 0000h and the interrupt vector addresses are at 0008h and 0018h.
The program memory maps for PIC18FX525 and PIC18FX620 devices are shown in Figure 5-1.

5.1.1 PROGRAM COUNTER

The Program Counter (PC ) specifies the address of th e instruction to fetch for execu tion. The PC is 21 bits wide and is contained in three separate 8-bit registers. The low byte, known as the PCL register, is both readable and writable. The high byt e, or PCH re gister, contains the PC<15:8> bits; i t is not directly re adable or writ able. Updates to the PCH register are perfo rmed through the PCLATH register. The upper byte is called PCU. This register contains the PC<20:16> bits; it is also not directly readable or writable. Updates to the PCU register are performed through the PCLATU register.
The contents of PCLATH and PCLATU are transferred to the program counter by any operation that writes PCL. Similarly, the upper two bytes of the program counter are transferred to P CLATH and PCLATU by an operation that reads PCL. This is useful for computed offsets to the PC (see Section 5.1.4.1 “Computed GOTO”).
The PC addresses bytes in the program memory. To prevent the PC from becoming misaligned with word instructions, the Least Significant bit of PCL is fixed to a value of ‘0’. The PC increments by 2 to address sequential instructions in the program memory.
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.

5.1.2 RETURN ADDRESS STACK

The return address s tack allows any co mb ination of up to 31 program calls and interrupts to occur. The PC is pushed onto th e stac k when a CALL or RCALL instruc­tion is executed or an interrupt is Acknowledged. The PC value is pulled off the stack on a RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction. PCLATU and PCLATH are not affected by any of the RETURN or CALL instructions.
The stack operates as a 31-word by 21-bit RAM and a 5-bit Stack Pointer, STKPTR. The stac k space is not part of either program or da ta sp ace. The Stack Point er is readable and writable and the address on the top of the stack is readable and writable through the top-of­stack Special File Registers. Data can also be pushed to, or popped from the stack, using these registers.
A CALL type instru ctio n cau ses a pu sh ont o the stack; the Stack Pointer is first incremented and the location pointed to by the Stack Pointer is written with the contents of the PC (already pointing to the instruction following the CALL). A RETURN type instruction causes a pop from the stack; the contents of the location pointed to by the STKPTR are transferred to the PC and then the Stack Pointer is decremented.
The Stack Pointer is initialized to ‘00000’ after all Resets. There is no RAM associated with the location corresponding to a Stack Pointer value of ‘00000’; this is only a Reset value. Stat us bit s in dic ate if the stack is full or has overflowed or has underflowed.
5.1.2.1 Top-of-Stack Access
Only the top of the return address stack (TOS) is readable and writable. A set of three registers, TOSU:TOSH:TOSL, hold the contents of the stack location pointed to by the STKPTR register (Figure 5-2). This allows users to implement a software stack if necessary. After a CALL, RCALL or interrupt, the software can read the pushed value by reading the TOSU:TOSH:TOSL registers. These values can be placed on a user-defined sof tware stack. At return time, the software can return these values to TOSU:TOSH:TOSL and do a return.
The user must disable the global interrupt enable bits while accessing the stack to prevent inadvertent stack corruption.

PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620
5.1.2.2 Return Stack Pointer (STKPTR)
The STKPTR register (Register5-1) contains the S tac 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. On 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 (RTOS) for return stack maintenance.
After the PC is pu sh ed ont o the s ta ck 31 time s (witho ut 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 description 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 bi t 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 until 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.
5.1.2.3 PUSH and POP Instructions
Since the Top-of-Stack is readable and writable, the ability to push value s on to the st ac k an d pul l values off the stack without disturbing normal program execution is a desirable feature. The PIC18 instruction set includes two instructions, PUSH and POP, that permit the TOS to be manipulated under software control. TOSU, TOSH and T OS L can be m odifie d to plac e dat a or a return address on the stack.
The PUSH instruction places the current PC value onto the stack. This increments the Stack Pointer and loads the current PC value onto the stack.
The POP instruction discards the current TOS by decre­menting the Stack Pointer. The previous value pushed onto the stack then becomes the TOS value.

5.1.2.4 Stack Full and Underflow Resets
Device Resets on stack overflow and stack underflow conditions are enabled by setting the STVREN bit in Configuration Register 4L. When STVREN is set, a ful l or underflow will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit and then cause a device Reset. When STVREN is cleared, a full or underflow condi tion will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit but not cause a device Reset. The STKFUL or STKUNF bits are cleared by the user software or a Power-on Reset.

5.1.3 FAST REGISTER STACK

A Fast Register Stack is provided for the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers, to provide a “fast return” option for interrupts. The stack for each register is onl y one level deep and is neith er readable no r writable. It is loaded with the curre nt val ue of the corres pondi ng reg­ister when the processor vectors for an interrupt. All interrupt so urces wi ll pu sh val ues int o the stack r egis­ters. The values in the registers are then loaded back into their associated registers if the RETFIE, FAST instruction is used to return from the interrupt.
If both low and high-priority interrupts are enabled, the stack registers cannot be used reliably to return from low-priority interrupts. If a high-priority interrupt occurs while servicing a low-priority interrupt, the stack regis­ter values stored by the low-priority interrupt will be overwritten. In these cases, 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 Fast Register Stack can be used to restore the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers at the end of a subroutin e 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 Re gister S tack. A RETURN, FAST instruction is then executed to resto re 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.

5.1.4 LOOK-UP TABLES IN PROGRAM MEMORY

There may be programming situations that require the creation of data structures, or look-up tables, in program memory. For PIC18 devices, look-up tables can be implemented in two ways:
• Computed GOTO
• Table Reads
5.1.4.1 Computed GOTO
A computed GOTO is accompli shed by adding an offset to the program counter. An example is shown in Example 5-2.
A look-up table can be formed with an ADDWF PCL instruction and a group of RETLW nn instructions. The W register is loaded with an of fs et into the table before executing a call to tha t t a ble . The first instruction o f th e called routine is the ADDWF PCL instruction. The next instruction executed will be one of the RETLW nn instructions that returns the value ‘nn’ 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.
EXAMPLE 5-2: COMP UTED GOTO USING
AN OFFSET VALUE
5.1.4.2 Table Reads and 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) register specifies the byte address and the Table Latch (TABLAT) register contains the da ta that is read from o r written to program memory. Data is transferred to or from program memory one byte at a time.
Table read and table write operations are discussed further in Section 7.1 “Table Reads and Table
Writes”.

5.2 PIC18 Instruction Cycle

5.2.1 CLOCKING SCHEME

The microcontroller clock input, whether from an internal or external source, is internally divided by four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature clocks (Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q 4). Internall y, the pro gram counte r is incremented on every Q1; the instruction is fetched from the program memory and latched into the instruction register during Q4. The instruction is decoded and execute d during the followin g Q1 throug h Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow are shown in Figure 5-3.
FIGURE 5-3: CLOCK/INSTRUCTION CYCLE

5.2.2 INSTRUCTION FLOW/PIPELINING

An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles: Q1 through Q4. The instruction fetch and execute are pipelined in such a manner that a fetch takes one instruction cycle, while the decode and execute take another instruction cycle. However, due to the pipe­lining, each instruction effectively executes in one cycle. If a n instruc tion caus es the pro gram coun ter to change (e.g., GOTO), then two cycles are required to complete the instruction (Example 5-3).
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 cycle s. D ata memory is re ad dur ing Q 2 (operand read) and written during Q4 (destination write).

5.2.3 INSTRUCTIONS 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). To maintain alignment with instruction bo undaries , the PC incr ements in step s of 2 and the LSb wi ll always read ‘0’ (see Section 5.1.1 “Program Counter”).
Figure 5-4 shows an example of how inst ruct ion word s are stored in the program memory.
The CALL and GOTO instructions have the absolute program 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 5-4 shows how the instruction GOTO 0006h is encoded in the program memory. Program branch instructions, which encode a relative address offset, operate in the same ma nner. 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 Set Summary” provides further details of the instruction set.
FIGURE 5-4: INSTRUCTIONS IN PROGRAM MEMORY

5.2.4 TWO-WORD INSTRUCTIONS

The standard PIC18 instruction set has four two-word instructions: CALL, MOVFF, GOTO and LSFR. In all cases, the second word of the in struc tion s always has ‘1111’ as its four M ost Signi fican t bit s; the other 12 bit s are literal data, usually a data memory address.
The use of ‘1111’ in the 4 MSbs of an instruction spec­ifies a special form of NOP. If the instruction is executed in proper sequence – immed iate ly af ter the first word – the data in the s econd w ord is ac cessed an d used by
the instruction seq ue nce . If the first word is skipped for some reason and the se cond word is ex ecuted by itsel f, a NOP is executed instead. This is necessary for cases when the two-word instruction is preceded by a condi­tional instruction that changes the PC. Example 5-4 shows how this works.
Note: See Section 5.6 “PIC18 Instruction
Execution and the Extended Instruc­tion Set” for information on two-word
instructions in the extended instruction set.

5.3 Data Memory Organization

Note: The operation of some aspects of data
memory are changed when the PIC18 extended instruction set is enabled. See
Section 5.5 “Data Memory and the Extended Instruction Set” for more
information.
The data memory in PIC18 devices is implemented as static RAM. Each register in the data memory has a 12-bit address, allowing up to 4096 bytes of data memory . The m emory sp ace is div ided into as many as 16 banks that contain 256 bytes each; PIC18F2525/ 2620/4525/4620 devices implement all 16 banks. Figure 5-5 shows the data memory organ ization for the PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620 devices.
The data memory contains Special Function Registers (SFRs) and General Purpose Registers (GPRs). The SFRs are used for control and status of the controller and peripheral functio ns, while GPRs are us ed for data storage and scratchpad operations in the user’s application. Any re ad of an unimpl emented location will read as ‘0’s.
The instruction set and architecture allow operations across all banks. The entire data memory may be accessed by Direct, Indirect or Indexed Addressing modes. Addressing modes are discussed later in this subsection.
To ensure that commonly used registers (SFRs and select GPRs) c an b e ac cess ed i n a si ngle cycle, PI C18 devices impl em ent an Ac ce ss Ba nk . Th is i s a 256-byte memory space that pr ovid es fa st acc ess to SFRs a nd the lower portion of GPR Bank 0 without using the BSR. Section 5.3.2 “Access Bank” provides a detailed description of the Access RAM.

5.3.1 BANK SELECT REGISTER (BSR)

Large areas of data memory require an efficient addressing scheme to make rapid access to any address possible. Ideally, this means that an entire address does not need to be provided for each read or write operation. For PIC18 devices, this is accom­plished with a RAM banking scheme. This divides the memory space into 16 contiguous banks of 256 bytes. Depending on the instruction, each location can be addressed directly by its full 12-bit address, or an 8-bit low-order address and a 4-bit Bank Pointer.
Most instruct ions in th e PIC18 in struct ion set ma ke us e of the Bank Pointer , known as the Ba nk Select Reg ister (BSR). This SFR holds the four Most Significant bit s of a location’s address; the instruction itself includes the 8 Least Significant bits. Only the four lower bits of the BSR are implemented (BSR3:BSR0). The upper four bits are unused; the y will always read ‘ 0’ and cannot be written to. The BSR can be l oaded direc tly b y using the MOVLB instruction.
The value of the BSR indicates the bank in data memory; the 8 bits in the instruction show the location in the bank and can be thought of as an offset from th e bank’s lower boundary. The relationship between the BSR’s value and the bank division in data memory is shown in Figure 5-6.
Since up to 16 reg isters m ay sh are the same l ow-ord er address, the user must alway s be careful to ensure that the proper bank is selected before performing a data read or write. For example, writing what should be program data to an 8-bit addre ss of F9 h, while the BSR is 0Fh, will end up resetting the program counter.
While any bank can be s el ec ted, only those banks th at are actually implemented can be read or written to. Writes to unimplemented banks are ignored, while reads from unimplemented banks will return ‘0’s. Even so, the STATUS register will still be affected as if the operation was successful. The data memory map in Figure 5-5 indicates which banks are implemented.
In the core PIC18 instruction set, only the MOVFF instruction fully specifies the 12-bit address of the source and target registers. This i nstruction ig nores the BSR completely when it ex ecutes. All o ther instruction s include only the low-order address as an operand and must use either the BSR or the Access Bank to locate their target registers.

5.3.2 ACCESS BANK

While the use of the BSR with an embedded 8-bit address allows users to address the entire range of data memory, it also means th at the user must a lways ensure that the correct bank is selected. Otherwise, data may be read from or written to the wrong location. This can be disastrous if a GPR is the intended target of an operation, but an SFR is written to instead. Verifying and/or changing the BSR for each read or write to data memory can become very inefficient.
T o stre amline acces s for the most commonl y used data memory locations, the data memory is configured with an Access Bank, which allows users to access a mapped block of memory without specifying a BSR. The Access Bank consists of the first 128 bytes of memory (00h-7Fh) in Bank 0 and the last 128 bytes of memory (80h-FFh) in Block 15 . The lower half is known as the “Access RAM” and is composed of GPRs. This upper half is also where the device’s SFRs are mapped. These two areas are mapped contiguously in the Access Bank and can be addressed in a linear fashion by an 8-bit address (Figure 5-5).
The Access Bank is used by core PIC18 instructions that include the Access RAM bit (the ‘a’ parameter in the instruction). When ‘a’ is equal to ‘1’, the instru ct ion uses the BSR and the 8-bit address included in the opcode for the data memory address. When ‘a’ is ‘0’,
however, the instruction is forced to use the Access Bank address map; the current value of the BSR is ignored entirely.
Using this “forced” addressing allows the instruction to operate on a data address in a single cycle, without updating the BSR first. For 8-bit addresses of 80h and above, this means th at use rs can ev aluate an d operate on SFRs more efficiently. The Access RAM below 80h is a good place for da ta values that the user might need to access rapidly, such as immediate computational results or common program variables. Access RAM also allows for faster and more code efficient context saving and switching of variables.
The mapping of the Access Bank is slightly different when the extended instruction set is enabled (XINST Configuration bit = 1). This is discussed in more d etail in Section 5.5.3 “Mapping the Access Bank in Indexed Literal Offset Addressing Mode”.

5.3.3 GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE

PIC18 devices may have banked memory in the GPR area. This is data RAM, which is available for use by all instructions. GPRs start at the bottom of Bank 0 (address 000h) and grow upwards towards the bottom of the SFR area. GPRs are not initialized by a Power-on Reset and are unchanged on all other Resets.

5.3.4 SPECIAL 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. SFRs start at the top of data memory (FF Fh) an d extend downw ard to oc cupy the top half of Bank 15 (F80h to FFFh). A list of these registers is given in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2.
The SFRs can be classified into two sets: those associ­ated with the “core” device functionality (ALU, Resets and interrupts) and those related to the peripheral functions. The reset and interrupt registers are described in their respective chapters, while the ALU’s STATUS register is described later in this section. Registers related to the operation of a peripheral feature are described in the chapter for that peripheral.
The SFRs are typically distributed among the peripherals whose fun cti ons th ey c ontr ol. U nus ed SFR locations are unimplemented and read as ‘0’s.

5.3.5 STATUS REGISTER

The STATUS register, shown in Register 5-2, contains the arithmetic status of the ALU. As wi th any other SFR, it can be the operand for any instruction.
If the ST ATUS register is the destination for an instruc­tion that affects the Z, DC, C, OV or N bits, the results of the instruction are not written; instead, the STATUS register is updated according to the instruction per­formed. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the STATUS register as its destination may be different than intended. As an example, CLRF STATUS will set the Z bit and leave the remaining Status bits unchanged (‘000u u1uu’).
It is recommended that only BCF, BSF, SWAPF , MOVFF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the STATUS register , b ecaus e thes e ins tructi ons d o not af fect t he Z, C, DC, OV or N bits in the STATUS register.
For other instructions that do not aff ect Status bi t s , se e the instruction set summaries in Table 24-2 and Table 24-3.
Note: The C and DC bits operate as the borrow
and digit borrow bits, respectively, in subtraction.

5.4 Data Addressing Modes

Note: The execution of some instructions in the
core PIC18 instruction set are changed when the PIC18 extended instruction set is enabled. See Section 5.5 “Data Memory and the Extended Instruction Set” for more information.
The data memory space can be addr essed in se veral ways. For most instructions, the addressing mode is fixed. Other instructions may use up to three modes, depending on whic h operands are used and whe ther or not the extended instruction set is enabled.
The addressing modes are:
• Inherent
• Literal
•Direct
•Indirect An additional addressing mode, Indexed Literal Offset,
is available when the extended instruction set is enabled (XINST Configuration bit = 1). Its operation is discussed in greater detail in Section 5.5.1 “Indexed Addressing with Literal Offset”.

5.4.1 INHEREN T AND LITERAL ADDRESSING

Many PIC18 control instructions do not need any argument at all; they either perform an operation that globally affects the device or they operate implicitly on one register. This addressing mode is know n as Inherent Addressing. Examples include SLEEP, RESET and DAW.
Other instructions work in a similar way but require an additional explicit argument in the opcode. This is known as Literal Addressing mode because they require some literal value as an argument. Examples include ADDLW and MOVLW, which respectively, add or move a literal value to the W register. Other examples include CALL and GOTO, which include a 20-bit program memory address.

5.4.2 DIRECT ADDRESSING

Direct Addressing specifies all or part of the source and/or destination address of the operation within the opcode itself. The options are specified by the arguments accompanying the instruction.
In the core PIC18 inst ruct ion se t, bit-ori ented and by te­oriented instructions use some version of Direct Addressing by default. All of these instructions include some 8-bit literal address as their Least Significant Byte. This address spec ifies either a re gister address in one of the banks of d ata RAM ( Section 5.3.3 “General Purpose Register File”) or a location in the Access Bank (Section 5.3.2 “Access Bank”) as the data source for the instruction.
© 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39626E-page 67
The Access RA M bit, ‘a ’, deter mine s how the address is interpreted. When ‘a’ is ‘1’, the contents of the BSR (Section 5.3.1 “Bank Select Register (BSR)”) are used with the address t o determin e the comple te 12-bit address of the reg ister. When ‘a’ is ‘0’, the address is interpreted as being a register in the Access Bank. Addressing that uses the Access RAM is sometimes also known as Direct Forced Addressing mode.
A few instructions, such as MOVFF, include the entire 12-bit address (either source or destination) in their opcodes. In these cases, the BSR is ignored entirely.
The destination of the operati on’s results is determined by the destination bit, ‘d ’. When ‘d’ is ‘1’, the re sult s a re stored back in th e s o ur c e re g is ter, overw rit i n g i ts or i gi­nal contents. When ‘d’ is ‘0’, the results are stored in the W register. Instructions without the ‘d’ argument have a destin ation tha t is i mplicit in the inst ruction; their destination is either the target register being operated on or the W register.

5.4.3 INDIRECT ADDRESSING

Indirect Addressin g allows the u ser to access a l ocation in data memory without giving a fixed address in the instruction. This is done by using File Select Registers (FSRs) as pointers to the location s to be read or written to. Since the FSRs are themselves located in RAM as Special Function Registers, they can also be directly manipulated under program control. This makes FSRs very useful in implementing data structures, such as tables and arrays in data memory.
The registers for Indirect Addressing are also implemented with Indirect File Operands (INDFs) that permit automatic mani pulati on of the poi nter value with auto-incrementing, auto-decrementing or offsetting with another va lue . Th is al lo ws f or e fficient code, us ing loops, such as the example of clearing an entire RAM bank in Example5-5.

5.4.3.1 FSR Registers and the INDF Operand
At the core of Indirect Addressing are three sets of registers: FSR0, FSR1 and FSR2. Each represents a pair of 8-bit registers, FSRnH and FSRnL. The four upper bits of the FSRnH register are not used so each FSR pair holds a 12-bi t va lue. T his repre sen ts a val ue that can address the entire range of the data memory in a linear fashion. The FSR register pairs, then, serve as pointers to data memory locations.
Indirect Addressing is accomplished with a set of Indirect File Operands, INDF0 through INDF2. These can be thought of as “virtual” registers: they are mapped in the SFR space but are not physically imple­mented. Reading or writin g to a particular INDF reg ister actually accesses its corresponding FSR register pair. A read from INDF1, for example, reads the data at the address indi cated by FSR 1H:FSR1L. Instructi ons that use the IND F registers a s operands actu ally use the contents of th eir co rrespon ding FS R as a poin ter to th e instruction’s target. The INDF operand is just a convenient way of using the pointer.
Because Indirect Ad dressing uses a fu ll 12-bit addr ess, data RAM banking is not necessary. Thus, the current contents of the BSR and the Access RAM bit have no effect on determining the target address.
5.4.3.2 FSR Registers and POSTI NC, POSTDEC, PREINC and PLUSW
In addition to the IND F operand, eac h FSR register pair also has four additional indirect operands. Like INDF, these are “virtual” registers that cannot be indirectly read or written to. Accessing these registers actually accesses the associated FSR register pair, but also performs a specifi c action on it s stored v alue. They ar e:
• POSTDEC: accesses the FSR value, then
automatically decrements it by 1 afterwards
• POSTINC: accesses the FSR value, then
automatically increments it by 1 afterwards
• PREINC: increments the FSR value by 1, then
uses it in the operation
• PLUSW: adds the signed value of the W register
(range of -127 to 128) t o that of th e FSR and uses the new value in the operation.
In this context, accessing an INDF register uses the value in the FSR registers with out changing the m. Sim­ilarly , acces sing a PLUSW register giv es the FSR v alue offset by that in the W registe r; neit her value is ac tuall y changed in the operation. Accessing the other virtual registers changes the value of the FSR registers.
Operations on the FSRs with POSTDEC, POSTINC and PREINC affect the entire register pair; that is, roll­overs of the FSRnL register from FFh to 00h ca rry over to the FSRnH register. On the other hand, results of these operations do not change the value of any flags in the STATUS register (e.g., Z, N, OV, etc.).
FIGURE 5-7: INDIRECT ADDRESSING
DS39626E-page 68 © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc.
PIC18F2525/2620/4525/4620
The PLUSW register can be used to implement a form of Indexed Addressing in the data memory space. By manipulating the value in the W register, users can reach addresses that are fixed offsets from pointer addresses. In some applications, this can be used to implement some powerful program control structure, such as software stacks, inside of data memory.
5.4.3.3 Operations by FSRs on FSRs
Indirect Addressing operations that target other FSRs or virtual registers represent special cases. For exam­ple, using an FSR to point to on e of the virtual regis ters will not result in successful operations. As a specific case, assume that FSR0H:FSR0L contains FE7h, the address of INDF1. Attempts to read the value of the INDF1 using INDF0 as an operand will return 00h. Attempts to write to INDF1 using I NDF0 as the operan d will result in a NOP.
On the other ha nd, u sing the v irtual reg isters to w rite to an FSR pair may n ot oc cur as plan ned. I n t hese cases , the value will be written to the FSR p air bu t withou t an y incrementing or decrementing. Thus, writing to INDF2 or POSTDEC2 will write the same value to the FSR2H:FSR2L.
Since the FSRs are physical registers mapped in the SFR space, they can be manipulated through all direct operations. Users should proceed cautiously when working on these registers, particularly if their code uses Indirect Addressing.
Similarly, operations by Indirect Addressing are gener­ally permitted on all other SFRs. Users should exercise the appropriate caution that they do not inadvertently change settings that might affect the operation of the device.

5.5 Data Memory and the Extended Instruction Set

Enabling the PIC18 extended instruction set (XINST Configuration bit = 1) significantly changes certain aspects of data me mory and it s addres sing. Specifically, the use of the Access Bank for many of the core PIC18 instructions is different; this is due to the introduction of a new addressing mode for the data memory spac e.
What does not change is just as im po rtant. The size of the data memory space is unchanged, as well as its linear addressing. The SFR map remains the same. Core PIC18 instructions can still operate in both Direct and Indirect Addressing mode; inherent and literal instructions do not change at all. Indirect Addressing with FSR0 and FSR1 also remains unchanged.

5.5.1 INDEXED ADDRESSING WITH LITERAL OFFSET

Enabling the PIC18 extended instruction set changes the behavior of Indirect Addressing using the FSR2 register pair within Access RAM. Under the proper conditions, instructions that use the Access Bank – that is, most bit-oriented and byte-oriented instructions – can invoke a form of Indexed Addressing using an offset specified in the instruction. This special addressing mode is known as Indexed Addressing with Literal Offset, or Indexed Literal Offse t mode.
When using the extended instruction set, this addressing mode requires the following:
• The use of the Access Bank is forced (‘a’ = 0);
and
• The file address arg um ent is less than or equal to
5Fh.
Under these conditions, the file address of the instruc­tion is not interpreted as the lower byte of an address (used with the BSR in Direct Addres sing), or as an 8-bit address in the Access Bank. Instead, the value is interpreted as an offset value to an Address Pointer, specified by FSR2. The offset and the contents of FSR2 are added to obtain the target address of the operation.

5.5.2 INSTRUCTIONS AFFECTED BY INDEXED LITERAL OFFSET MODE

Any of the core PIC18 instructions that can use Direct Addressing are potentially affected by the Indexed Literal Offset Addressing mode. This includes all byte-oriented and bit-oriented instructions, or almost one-half of the standard PIC18 instruction set. Instructions that onl y use Inherent or Literal Addr essing modes are unaffecte d.
Additionally, byte-oriented and bit-oriented instructions are not affected if they do not use the Access Bank (Access RAM bit is ‘1’), or include a fi le ad dres s of 60 h or above. Instructions meeting these criteria will continue to execute as be fore. A comp aris on of the di f­ferent possible addressing modes when the extended instruction set is enabled is shown in Figure 5-8.
Those who desire to use bit-oriented or byte-oriented instructions in the Indexed Literal Offset mode should note the changes to assembler syntax for this mode. This is described in more detail in Section 24.2.1 “Extended Instruction Syntax”.

EXAMPLE INSTRUCTION: ADDWF, f, d, a (Opcode: 0010 01da ffff ffff)
When ‘a’ = 0 and f 60h:
The instruction executes in Direct Forced mode. ‘f’ is inter­preted as a location in the Access RAM between 060h and 0FFh. This is the sam e as locations 060h to 07Fh (Bank 0) and F80h to FFFh (Bank 15) of data memory.
Locations below 60h are not available in this addressing mode.
When ‘a’ = 0 and f ≤ 5Fh:
The instruction executes in Indexed Literal Offset mode. ‘f’ is interpreted as an offset to the address value in FSR2. The two are added together to obtain the address of the target register for the instruction. The address can be anywhere in the data memory space.
Note that in this mode, the correct syntax is now:
ADDWF [k], d
where ‘k’ is the same as ‘f’.
When ‘a’ = 1 (all values of f):
The instruction executes in Direct mode (also known as Direct Long mode). ‘f’ is inter­preted as a location in one of the 16 banks of the data memory space. The bank is designated by the Bank Sel ect Register (BSR). The address can be in any implemented bank in the data memory space.

5.5.3 MAPPING THE ACCESS BANK IN INDEXED LITERAL OFFSET ADDRESSING MODE

The use of Indexed Literal Offset Addressing mode effectively chan ges how the first 96 locati ons of Access RAM (00h to 5Fh) are m ap ped . R at her tha n c on taining just the contents of the bottom half of Bank 0, this mode maps the contents from Bank 0 and a user-defined “window” that can be located anywhere in the data memory space. The value of FSR2 establishes the lower boundary of the addresses mapped into the window, while the upper boundary is defined by FSR2
Remapping of the Access Bank applies only to opera­tions using the Indexed Literal Offset Addressing mode. Operations that us e the BSR (Access RAM bit is ‘1’) will continue to use Direct Addressing as before.

6.0 DATA EEPROM MEMORY

The data EEPROM is a nonvolatile memory array, separate from the dat a RAM and program memory, that is used for long-term storage of program data. It is not directly mapped in either the register file or program memory space but is indirectly addressed through the Special Function Registers (SFRs). The EEPROM is readable and writab le during no rmal operati on over the entire V
Five SFRs are used to read and write to the data EEPROM as well as the program memory. They are:
• EECON1
• EECON2
• EEDATA
• EEADR
• EEADRH The data EEPROM allows byte read and write. When
interfaci ng to the data mem ory block, EEDATA holds the 8-bit data for read/write and the EEADRH:EEADR register pair holds the address of the EEPROM loc ation being accessed.
The EEPROM data memory is rated for high erase/write 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; it 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 Characteristics”) for exact limits.

6.1 EEADR and EEADRH Registers

The EEADRH:EEADR register pair is used to address the data EEPROM for read and write operations. EEADRH holds the two MSbits of the address; the upper 6 bits are i gnored. The 10- bit range of the pair can address a memory range of 1024 bytes (00h to 3FFh).

6.2 EECON1 and EECON2 Registers

DD range.
The EECON1 register (Register 6-1) is the control register for data and program memory access. Control bit EEPGD determines if the acce ss wi ll be to program or data EEPROM memory. When clear, operations will access the data EEPROM memory . When set, program memory is accessed.
Control bit, CFGS, determines if the access will be to the Configuration reg ist ers or to pro gram m em ory/data EEPROM memory. When set, subsequent operations access Configuration registers. When CFGS is clear, the EEPGD bit selects either Flash program or data EEPROM memory.
The WREN bit, when set, will allow a write operation. On power-up, the WREN bit is c lear . Th e WRERR bit is set in hardware when the WREN bit is set and cleared when the internal programming timer expires and the write operation is complete.
Note: Dur ing normal operatio n, the WRERR is
read as ‘1’. This can indicate that a write operation was prematurely terminated by a Reset, or a write operation was attempted improperly.
The WR control bit initiates write operations. The bit cannot be cleared, only set, in software; it is cleared in hardware at the completion of the write operation.
Note: The EEIF interrupt flag bit (PIR2<4>) is set
when the write is complete. It must be cleared in software.
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 7.1 “Tabl e Reads and Table Writes” regarding table reads.
The EECON2 register is not a physical register. It is used exclusively in the memory write and erase sequences. Reading EECON2 will read all ‘0’s.
Access to the data EEPROM is controlled by two registers: EECON1 and EECO N2. These are the same registers which control access to the program memory and are used in a similar manner for the data EEPROM.

6.3 Reading the Data EEPROM Memory

T o read a d ata memory loca tion, the user must write the address to the EEADRH:EEADR register pair , clear the EEPGD control bit (EECON1<7>) and then set control bit, RD (EECON1<0>). The data is available on the very next instruction cycle; therefore, the EEDATA register can be read by the next instruction. EEDATA will hold this valu e un til another read operation, or until it is written to by the user (during a write operation).
The basic process is shown in Example 6-1.

6.4 Writing to the Data EEPROM Memory

To write an EEPROM data location, the address must first be written to the EEADRH:EEADR register pair and the data written to the EEDATA register. The sequence in Example6-2 must be followed to initiate the write cycle.
The write will not begin if this sequence is not exactly followed (write 55h to EECON2, write 0AAh 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 , exc ept whe n u pdatin g the EEPROM. The WREN bit is not cleared by hardware.
After a write sequence has been initiated, EECON1, EEADRH: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 cannot be set with the same instruction.
At the completion of the write cycle, the WR bit is cleared in hardware and the EEPROM Interrupt Flag bit, EEIF, is set. The user may either enable this interrupt, or poll this bit. EEIF must be cleared by software.

6.5 Write 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.

6.6 Operation During Code-Protect

Data EEPROM memory has its own code-protect bits in Configuration Words. External read and write operations are disabled if code protection is 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.

6.7 Protection Against Spur ious Write

6.8 Using the Data EEPROM

The data EEPROM is a high-e ndurance, byte-a ddress­able 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. 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
There are conditions when the device may not want to
Example 6-3.
write to the data EEPROM memory. To protect against spurious EEPROM writes, various mechanisms have been implemented. On power-up, the WREN bit is cleared. In addition, writes to the EEPROM are b locked during the Power-up Timer period (T
PWRT,
parameter 33). The write initiate se quence and the WREN bit tog eth er
help prevent an accidental write during Brown-out Reset, power glitch or software malfunction.

EXAMPLE 6-3: DATA EEPROM REFRESH ROUTINE

Note: If data EEPROM is only used to store
constants and/or data that changes often, an array refresh is likely not required. See specification D124.

7.0 FLASH 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 64 bytes at a time. Program memory is erased in blocks of 64 bytes at a time. A bulk erase operation may not be issued from user code.
Writing or erasing program memory will cease instruction fetches 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.
DD

7.1 Table Reads and Table Writes

In order to read and write program memory, there are two operations that allow the processor to move bytes between the program memory sp ace and the dat a RAM:
• Table Read (TBLRD)
• Table Write (TBLWT) The program memory space is 16 bits wide, while the
data RAM space is 8 bits wide. Table reads and table writes move data between these two memory spaces through an 8-bit register (TABLAT).
Table read operations retrieve data from program memory and place it into the data RAM space. Figure 7-1 shows the operation of a table read with program memory and data RAM.
Table write opera tions s tor e data from t he da ta memo ry space into holding registers in program memory. The procedure to write the contents of the holding registers into program memory is detailed in Section 7.5 “Writing to Flash Program Memory”. Figure7-2 shows the operation of a table write with program memory and data RAM.
Table operations work with byte entities. A table block containing data, rather than program instructions, is not required to be word aligned. Therefore, a table block can start and end at any byte address. If a t able write is being used to write executable code into program memory, program instructions will need to be word-aligned.

7.2 Control 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

7.2.1 EECON1 AND EECON2 REGISTERS

The EECON1 register (Register 7-1) is the control register for memory acce sses. The EECO N2 register is not a physical register; it is used exclusively in the memory write and erase sequences. Reading EECON2 will read all ‘0’s.
The EEPGD control bit determines if th e access will be a program or data EEPROM memory access. When clear, any subsequent operations will operate on the data EEPROM memory. When set, any subsequent operations will operate on the program memory.
The CFGS control bit determines if the access will be to the Configuration/C alib ration re giste rs or to pro gram memory/data EEPROM memory. When set, subsequent operations will operate on Configuration registers regardless of EEPGD (see Section 23.0 “Special Features of the CPU”). When clear, memory selection access is determined by EEPGD.
The FREE bit, when set, will allow a program memory erase operation. When FREE is set, the erase operation is initiated on the next WR command. When FREE is clear , only wr ite s are enab led .
The WREN bit, when set, will allow a write operation. On power-up, the WREN bit is c lear . The WRERR bit is set in hardware when the WR bit is set and cleared when the internal programming timer expires and the write operation is complete.
Note: During normal operation, the WRERR
may read as ‘1’. This can indicate that a write operation was prematurely termi­nated by a Reset, or a write operation was attempted improperly.
The WR control bit initiates write operations. The bit cannot be cleared, only set, in software; it is cleared in hardware at the completion of the write operation.
Note: The EEIF interrupt flag bit (PIR2<4>) is set
when the write is complete. It must be cleared in software.

7.2.2 TABLAT – 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.

7.2.3 TBLPTR – TABLE POINTER REGISTER

The Table Poin ter (T BLPTR ) re gis ter add res se s a byte within the program memory. The TBLPTR is comprised of three SFR registers : Table Pointer Upper Byte, Table Pointer High Byte and Table Pointer Low Byte (TBLPTRU:TBLPTRH:TBLPTRL). These three regis­ters join to form a 22-bit wide po inter. The low-o rder 21 bits allow the device to address up to 2 Mbytes of program memory sp ace. Th e 22nd b it allow s acce ss to the Device ID, the user ID and the Configuration bits.
The Table Pointer register, TBLPTR, is used by the TBLRD and TBLWT instructi ons . T hes e i ns truc tio ns ca n update the TBLPTR in one of four ways based on the table operation. These operations are shown in T abl e 7-1. These operations on the TBLPTR only af fect the low-order 21 bits.

7.2.4 TABLE POINTER BOUNDARIES

TBLPTR is used in reads, writes and erases of the Flash program memory.
When a TBLRD is executed, al l 22 bits of th e T BLPT R determine which byte is read from program memory into TABL AT.
When a TBLWT is executed, the six LSbs of the Table Pointer register (TBLPTR<5 :0>) determine which o f the 64 program memory holding registers is written to. When the timed write to program memory begins (via the WR bit), the 16 MSbs of the TBLPTR (TBLPTR<21:6>) determine which program memory block of 64 bytes is written to. For more detail, see Section 7.5 “Writing to Flash Program Memory”.
When an erase of program memory is executed, the 16 MSbs of the T able Pointer reg ister (TBLPTR<21:6 >) point to the 64-byte block that will be erased. The Least Significant bits (TBLPTR<5:0>) are ignored.
Figure 7-3 describes the relevant boundaries of TBLPTR based on Flash program memory operations.

7.3 Reading the Flash Program Memory

The TBLRD instruction is used to retrieve data from program memory and places it into data RAM. Table reads from program memory are pe rformed one by te at a time.
TBLPTR poi nts to a byte address in pro gram space. Executing TBLRD places the byte pointed to into TABLAT. In addition, TBLPTR can be modified automatically for the next table read operation.
The internal program memory is typically organize d by words. The Least Sig nificant b it of th e address selects between the high and low bytes of the word. Figure 7-4 shows the interface between the internal program memory and the TABLAT.

7.4 Erasing Flash Program Memory

The minimum eras e block is 32 wo rds or 64 b ytes. Only through the use of an external programmer, or through ICSP control, can larger blocks of program memory be bulk erased. Word erase in the Flash array is not supported.
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 WREN bit must be set to enable write operations. The F REE bit is set to select an erase operation.
For protection, the wri te i ni tiat e s equ enc e f or EECO N2 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

7.4.1 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY ERASE SEQUENCE

The sequence of events for erasing a block of internal program memory location is:
1. Load Table Pointer register 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 0AAh 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. Re-enable interrupts.
cycle. The long write will be terminated by the internal programming timer.

7.5 Writing to Flash Program Memory

The minimum programming block is 32 words or 64 bytes. Word or byte programming is not supported.
Table writes are used internally to load the holding registers needed to program the Flash memory. There are 64 holding registers used by the table writes for programming.
Since the Table Latch (TABLAT) is only a single byte, the TBLWT instruction may need to be executed 64 times for each programming operation. All of the table write operations will essentially be short writes because only t he holding registers are writt en. At the end of updating the 64 holding registers, the EECON1 register must be written to in order to start the programming op eration with a l on g w rit e.
The long write is necessary for programming the internal Flash. Instructio n execu tion is halted wh ile in a long write cycle. The long write will be terminated by the internal programming timer.
The EEPROM on-chip timer controls the write time. The write/erase voltages are generated by an on-chip charge pump, rated to operate over the voltage range of the device.
Note: The default value of the holding registers on
device Resets and aft er write op eratio ns is FFh. A write of FFh to a holding register does not modify that byte. T his mea ns th at individual bytes of program memory may be modified, provided that the change does not attempt to chang e any bi t from a ‘0’ to a ‘1’. When modifying individual bytes, it is not necessary to load all 64 holding registers before executing a write ope ration.

FIGURE 7-5: TABLE WRITES TO FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY

7.5.1 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY WRITE SEQUENCE

The sequence of events for programming an internal program memory location should be:
1. Read 64 bytes into R AM.
2. Update data values in RAM as necessary.
3. Load Table Pointer register with address being
erased.
4. Execute the row erase procedure.
5. Load Table Pointer register with address of first
byte being written.
6. Write the 64 by tes in to the hold ing reg isters wi th
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 to enable byte writes.

8. Disable interrupts.
9. Write 55h to EECON2.
10. Write 0AAh to EECON2. 1 1. Set the WR bit. This will begin the write cycl e.
12. The CPU will stall for dura tion of t he write (a bout 2 m s using internal timer).
13. Re-enable interrupts.
14. Verify the memory (table read).
This procedure will require about 6 ms to update one row of 64 bytes of memory. An example of the required code is given in Example 7-3.
Note: Before setting the WR bit, the Table
Pointer address needs to be within the intended address range of the 64 bytes in the holding register.

7.5.2 WRITE 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.

If a write is termin ate d b y a n u npl anned event, such as loss of power or an unexpected Reset, the memory location just pr ogrammed shou ld be verifi ed and repr o­grammed if needed.

8.0 8 x 8 HARDWARE MULTIPLIER

8.1 Introduction

All PIC18 devices include an 8 x 8 hardware multiplier as part of the ALU. The multiplier pe rforms an unsigned operation and yields a 16-bit result that is stored in the product register pair, PRODH:PRODL. The multiplier’s operation does not affect any flags in the STATUS register.
Making multiplication a hardware operation allows it to be completed in a single instructi on cy cl e. This has the advantages of higher computational throughput and reduced code size for multiplication algorithms and allows the PIC18 devices to be used in many applica­tions previously reserved for digital signal processors. A comparison of various hardware and software multiply operations, along with the savings in memory and execution time, is shown in Table 8-1.

8.2 Operation

Example 8-1 shows the instruction seq uence for an 8 x 8 unsigned multiplication. Only one instruction is required when one of the arguments is already loaded in the WREG register.
Example 8-2 shows the sequence to do an 8 x 8 signe d multiplication. To account for the sign bits of the arguments, e ach argume nt’s Most Signi ficant b it (MSb) is tested and the appropriate subtractions are done.

9.0 I/O PORTS

Depending on the device selected and features enabled, there are up to five ports available. Some pins of the I/O ports are multiplexed with an alternate function from the peripheral features on the device. In general, when a periphe ral is ena bled, that pi n may not be used as a general purpose I/O pin.
Each port has three registers for its operation. These registers are:
• TRIS register (data direction register)
• PORT register (reads the lev els on the pin s of the device)
• LAT register (output latch)
The Data Latch (LAT register) is useful for read-modify­write operations on the value that the I/O pins are driving.
A simplified model of a generic I/O port, without the interfaces to other peripherals, is shown in Figure 9-1.
FIGURE 9-1: GENERIC I/O PORT
OPERATION
Reading the PORTA register reads the status of the pins, whereas writing to it, will write to the port latch.
The Data Latch (LA TA) register is also me mory mapped. Read-modify-write operations on the LA TA register read and write the latched output value for PORTA.
The RA4 pin is multiplexed with the Timer0 module clock input and one of the comparator outputs to become the RA4/T0CKI/C1OUT pin. Pins RA6 and RA7 are multiplexed with the main oscillator pins; they are enabled as oscillator or I/O pins by the selection of the main oscillator in the Configuration register (see Section 23.1 “Configuration Bits” for details). When they are not used as port pins, RA6 and RA7 and their associated TRIS and LAT bits are read as ‘0’.
The other PORTA pins are multiplexed with analog inputs, the analog V
REF+ and VREF- inputs and the
comparator voltage reference output. The op eration of pins RA3:RA0 and RA5 as A/D converter inputs is selected by clearing or setting the control bits in the ADCON1 register (A/D Control Register 1).
Pins RA0 through RA5 may also be used as comparator inputs or outputs by setting the appropriate bits in the CMCON re giste r . To use RA3:RA0 as digital inputs , it is also necessary to turn off the comparators.
Note: On a Power-on Reset, RA5 and RA3:RA0
are configured as analog inputs and read as ‘0’. RA4 is configured as a digital input.
The RA4/T0 CK I /C 1O UT pi n is a S c hm itt Trigg e r in p ut . All other PORTA pins hav e TTL input level s. All PORTA pins have full CMOS output drivers.
The TRISA register co ntrols the di rection of the PO RTA pins, even when they a re be ing used as analog input s . The user must ensure the bit s in the TRISA registe r are maintained set when using them as analog inputs.

9.1 PORTA, TRISA and LATA Registers

PORTA is a 8-bit wide, bidirectional port. The corre­sponding Data Direction register is TRISA. Setting a TRISA bit (= 1) will make the correspondi ng PORT A pin an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a high-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISA bit (= 0) will make the correspondin g POR TA pin an output (i .e., put the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).

9.2 PORTB, TRISB and LATB Registers

PORTB is an 8-bit wide, bidirectional port. The corresponding Data Direction register is TRISB. Setting a TRISB bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTB pin an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a high-imped ance mode). Cl earing a TRISB bit (= 0) will make the c orrespond ing POR TB pi n an out put (i.e., put the contents of the outpu t latch on the selected pi n).
The Data Latch register (LATB) is also memory mapped. Read-modify-write operations on the LATB register read and write the latched output value for PORTB.

EXAMPLE 9-2: INITIALIZI NG PORTB

Four of the PORTB pins (RB7:RB4) have an interrupt­on-change feature. Only pins configured as inputs can cause this interrupt to occur (i.e., any RB7:RB4 pin configured as an output is excluded from the interrupt­on-change comparison). The input pins (of RB7:RB4) are compared with the old value latched on the last read of PORTB. The “mismatch” outputs of RB7:RB4 are ORed together to generate the RB Port Change Interrupt with Flag bit, RBIF (INTCON<0>).
This interrupt can wake the device from the Sleep mode, or any of the Idle modes. The user, in the Interrupt Service Routine, can clear the interrupt in the following manner:
a) Any read or write of PORTB (except with the
MOVFF (ANY), PORTB instruction).

c) Clear flag bit, RBIF. A mismatch condition wil l contin ue to set flag bit , RBIF.
Reading PORTB and waiting 1 T
CY will end the
mismatch condition and allow flag bit, RBIF, to be cleared.
The interrupt-on-change feature is recommended for wake-up on key depression operation and operations where PORTB is only used for the interrupt-on-change feature. Polling of PORTB is not recommended while using the interrupt-on-change feature.
RB3 can be configured by the Configuration bit, CCP2MX, as the alternate peripheral pin for the CCP2 module (CCP2MX = 0).
Each of the PORTB pi ns has a w eak i nternal pul l-up. A single cont rol bit can turn on a ll the pull-ups. This is performed by clearing bit, RBPU weak pull-up is automatically turned off when the port pin is configured as an output. The pull-ups are disabled on a Power-on Reset.
Note: On a Power-on Reset, RB4:RB0 are
configured as analo g inputs by default and read as ‘0’; RB7:RB5 are configured as digital inputs.
By programming the Configuration bit, PBADEN, RB4:RB0 will alternatively be configured as digital inputs on POR.

9.3 PORTC, TRISC and LATC Registers

PORTC is an 8-bit wide, bidirectional port. The corresponding Data Direction register is TRISC. Set­ting a TRISC bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTC pin an i npu t (i .e., put the corresp on din g o utp ut driver in a high-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISC bit (= 0) will make the corresponding PORTC pin an output (i.e., put the contents of the output latch on the selected pi n).
The Data Latch register (LATC) is also memory mapped. Read-modify-write operations on the LATC register read and write the latched output value for PORTC.
PORTC is mul tiplexed with s everal peri pheral function s (Table 9-5). The pins have Schmitt Trigger input buffers. RC1 is normally configured by Configuration bit, CCP2MX, as the de fault peri pheral pin of the CC P2 module (default/erased state, CCP2MX = 1).
When enabling peripheral functions, care should be taken in defining TRIS bits for each PORTC pin. Some peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an output, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an input. The user should refer to the corresponding peripheral sectio n for additi onal informati on.
Note: On a Power-on Reset, these pins are
configured as digital inputs.
The contents of the TRISC register are affected by peripheral overrides. Reading TRISC always returns the current contents, even though a peripheral device may be overriding one or more of the pins.
