1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW

This documen t conta i ns dev ic e spec if i c in for m at i on fo r the following devices:
• PIC18F6525
• PIC18F6621
• PIC18F8525
• PIC18F8621 This family offers the advantages of all
PIC18 microcontrollers – namely, high computational performance at an economical price – with the addition of high-end urance Enhan ced Flash pro gram memory. The PIC18F6525/6621/8 525/8621 fa mily als o provide s an enhanced range of program memory options and versatile analog fea tures that mak e it ideal fo r complex, high performance applications.

1.1 Key Features

1.1.1 EXPANDED MEMORY

The PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 family provides ample room for application code and includes members with 48 Kbytes or 64 Kbytes of code space.
Other memory features are:
Data RAM and Data EEPROM: The PIC18F6525/ 6621/8525/8621 family also provides plenty of room for application da t a. T he devices have 3840 bytes of data RAM, as well as 1024bytes of data EEPROM for long term retention of nonvolatile data.
Memory Endurance: The Enhanced Flash cells for both program memory and data EEPROM are rated to last for many thou sands of erase/write cycl es – 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.

1.1.2 EXTERNAL MEMORY INTERFACE

In the unlikely event t hat 64 Kbytes of program memo ry is inadequate for an ap plica tion, th e PIC1 8F8525 /8621 members of the family also implement an external memory interface. This allows the controller’s internal program counter to address a memory space of up to 2 MBytes, permitting a level of data access that few 8-bit devices can claim.
With the addition of new operati ng mode s, the ext ernal memory interface offers many new options, including:
• Operating the microcontr oller entirely f rom external memory
• Using combinations of on-chip and external memory, up to the 2-Mbyte limit
• Using external Flash memory for reprogrammable application code or large data tables
• Using external RAM devices for storing large amounts of variable data

1.1.3 EASY MIGRATION

Regardless of the memory size, all devices share the same rich set of peripherals, allowing for a smooth migration path as applications grow and evolve.
The consistent pinout scheme used throughout the entire family also aids in migrating to the next larger device. This is true when moving between the 64-pin members, between the 80-pin members, or even Jumping From 64-pin To 80-pin Devices.

1.1.4 OTHER SPECI AL FE A TU RES

Communications: The PIC18F6525/6621/8525/ 8621 family incorporates a range of serial communi­cation peripherals, including 2 independent Enhanced USARTs and a Master SSP module capa­ble of both SPI and I2C (Master and Slave) modes of operation. Also, for PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 devices, one of the general purpose I/O ports can be reconfigured as an 8-bit Parallel Slave Port for direct processor to processor communications.
CCP Modules: All devices in the family incorporate two Capture/Compare/PWM (CCP) modules and three Enhanced CCP (ECCP) modules to maximize flexibility in control applications. Up to four different time bases may be used to perform several different operations at once. Each of the three ECCPs offer up to four PWM outputs, allowing for a total of 12 PWMs. The ECCPs also offer many beneficial features, including polarity selection, Programmable Dead Time, Auto-Shutdown and Restart and Half-Bridge and Full-Bridge Output modes.
Analog Features: All devices in the family feature 10-bit A/D converters with up to 16 input channels, as well a s the a bility t o perfor m conver sions du ring Sleep mode and auto-acquisition conversions. Also included are dual analog comparators with programmable input and output configuration, a programmable Low-Voltage Detect module and a Programmable Brown-out Reset module.
Self-programmability: These devices can write to their own program memory spaces under internal software control. By using a bootloader routine located in the protected boot block at the top of program memor y, it become s possible to crea te an application that can update itself in the field.

2.2 Crystal Oscilla tor/Ceramic Resonators

In XT , LP, HS, HS+PLL or HS+SPLL Oscillator modes, a crystal or ceramic resonator is connected to the OSC1 and OSC2 pins to establish oscil lation. Figure 2-1 shows the pin connections.
The PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 oscillator design requires the use of a parallel cut crystal.
Note: Use of a series cut crystal may give a
frequency out of the cryst al manu facturer s specifications.

2.3 RC Oscillator

For timing insensitive applications, the “RC” and “RCIO” device options offer additional cost savings. The RC oscillator frequency is a function of the supply voltage, the resistor (R values and the operating temperature. In addition to this, the oscillator frequency will vary from unit to unit due to normal process parameter variation. Further­more, the difference in lead frame capacitance between package types will also affect the oscillation frequency, especially for low C also needs to take into account variation due to tolerance of external R and C components used. Figure 2-3 shows how the R/C combination is connected.
In the RC Oscillator mode, the oscillator frequency divided by 4 is available on the OSC2 pin. This signal may be used f or t e st pu r pos es or t o sy nc hr o n iz e ot he r logic.

2.6 Oscillator Switching Feature

The PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 devices include a feature that allows the system clock source to be switched from the main oscillator to an alternate low frequency clock source. For the PIC18F6525/6621/ 8525/8621 devices, this alternate clock source is the Timer1 osc illator. If a low-frequency cryst al (32 kHz , for example) has been attached to the Timer1 oscillator pins and the Timer1 oscillator has been enabled, the device can switch to a low-power execution mode.

2.6.1 SYSTEM CLOCK SWITCH BIT

The system clock sourc e sw it ching is performed under software control. The system clock switch bits, SCS1:SCS0 (OSCCON<1:0>), control the clock switching. When the SCS0 bit is ‘0’, the system clock source comes from the main oscillator that is selected by the FOSC configuration bits in the CONFIG1H Configurat ion register. When the SCS0 bi t is set, the system clock source will come from the Timer1 oscillator . The SCS0 bit i s cleared on all form s of Reset.
When the FOSC bits are programmed for Soft ware PLL mode, the SCS1 bit can be used to select between primary oscillator/clock and PLL output. The SCS1 bit will only have an effect on the system clock if the PLL is enabled (PLLEN = 1) and locked (LOC K = 1), else it will be forced cleared. When programmed with Configuration Controlled PLL, the SCS1 bit will be forced clear.
Note: The Timer1 oscillator must be enabled
and operating to switch the system clock source. The Timer1 oscillator is enabled by setting the T1OSCEN bit in the Timer1 Control register (T1CON). If the Timer1 oscillator is not enabled, then any write to the SCS0 bit will be ignored (SCS0 bit forced cleared) and the main osci llator w ill continue to be the system clock source.

2.6.2 OSCILLATOR TRANSITIONS

PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 devices contain circuitry to prevent “glitches” when switching between oscillator sources. Essentially, the circuitry waits for eight rising edges of the clock source that the processor is switch­ing to. This e ns ures t hat the new clock source is stable and that its pulse wid th will not be less than the sho rtest pulse width of the two clock sources.
A timing diagram indicating the transition from the main oscillator to the Timer1 oscillator is s hown in Figure2-8. The Timer1 oscillator is assumed to be running all the time. After the SCS0 bit is set, the processor i s frozen at the next occurring Q1 cycle. After eight synchronization cycles are counted from the Timer1 oscillator, operation resumes. No additional delays are required after the synchronization cycles.

The sequence of events that takes place when switch­ing from the Timer1 oscillator to the main oscillator will depend on the mode of the main oscillator. In addition to eight clock cycles of the main oscillator, additional delays may take place.
If the main oscillator is configured for an external crystal (HS, XT, LP), then the transition will take place after an oscillator start-up time (T
OST) has occurred. A
timing diagram, indicating the transition from the Timer1 oscillator to the main oscillator for HS, XT and LP modes, is shown in Figure 2-9.

2.8 Power-up Delays

Power-up delays are con trolled by two time rs so that no external Reset circuitry is required for most applications. The delays ensure that the device is kept in Reset un til the device p ower supply and clock are stable. For additional information on Reset operation, see Section 3.0 “Reset”.
The first timer is the Power-up Timer (PWRT) which optionally provid es a fix ed delay of 72 ms (nominal) on power-up only (POR and BOR). The second timer is
With the PLL enable d (HS+PL L a nd EC + PLL oscillator mode), the time-out sequence following a Power-on Reset is different from other oscillator modes. The time-out sequence is as follows: First, the PWRT time­out is invoked after a POR time delay has expired. Then, the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) is invoked. However, this is still not a sufficient amount of time to allow the PLL to lock at high frequencies. The PWRT timer is used to provide an additional fixed 2 ms (nominal) t ime- ou t to al low t he P LL am ple t ime to lo ck to the incoming clock frequency.

3.1 Power-on Reset (POR)

A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when
DD rise is detected. To take advantage of the POR
V circuitry, tie the MCLR resistor to V
DD. This will eliminate external RC
pin through a 1 k to 10 k
components usually needed to create a Power-on Reset delay. A minimum rise rate for V
DD is specified
(parameter D004) . For a s low rise t ime, see F igure 3-2. When the device st arts normal operation (i.e., exits 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.

3.2 Power-up Timer (PWRT)

The Power-up Timer provides a fixed nominal time-out (parameter 33) only on power-up from the POR. The Power-up Timer operates on an internal RC oscillator. The chip is kept in Reset as long as the PWRT is active. The PWRT’s time delay allows VDD to rise to an acceptable level. A configuration bit is provided to enable/disable the PWRT.
The power-up time delay will vary fr om chip-to-ch ip due
DD, temperature and process variation. See DC
to V parameter 33 for details.

3.3 Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)

The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) provides a 1024 oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delays after the PWRT delay is over (parameter 32). This ensures that the crystal oscillator or resonator has started and stabilized.
The OST time-out is invoked only for XT, LP and HS modes and only on Power-on Reset, or wake-up from Sleep.

3.4 PLL Lock Time-out

With the PLL enabled, the time-ou t sequen ce foll owin g a Power-on Reset is different from other oscillator modes. A portion of the Po wer-up Timer is used to pro­vide a fixed time-out th at is suff icient for the PLL to lock to the main oscillator fre quenc y. This PLL lock time-out
PLL) is typically 2 ms and follows the oscillator
(T start-up time-out.

3.5 Brown-out Reset (BOR)

A configuration bit, BOR, can disable (if clear/ programmed) or enable (if set) the Brown-out Reset circuitry. If V
DD falls below parameter D005 for greater
than parameter 35, the brown-out situation will reset the chip. A Reset may not occur if VDD falls below parameter D005 for less than parameter 35. The chip will remain in Brown-out Reset until VDD rise s above
DD. If the Power-up Timer is enabled, it will be
BV invoked after V
DD rises above BVDD; it then will keep
the chip in Reset for an additional time delay (parameter 33). If VDD drops below BVDD while the Power-up Timer is running, the chip will go back into a Brown-out Reset and the Power-up Timer will be initialized . Once V
DD rises above BVDD, the Power-up
Timer will execute the additional time delay.

3.6 Time-out Sequence

On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows: First, PWRT time-out is invoked after the POR time delay has expi red. Then, OST is activ ated. The total time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration and the status of th e PWRT. For example, in RC mode wi th the PWRT disabled, there will be no time-out at all. Figure 3-3, Figure 3-4, Figure 3-5, Figure 3-6 and Figure 3-7 depict time-out sequences on power-up.
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, the time-outs will expire if MCLR Bringing MCLR
high will begin execution immediately (Figure 3-5). This is useful for testing purposes or to synchronize more than one PIC18F6525/6621/8525/ 8621 device operating in parallel.

4.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION

There are three memory blocks in PIC18F6525/6621/ 8525/8621 devices. They are:
• Program Memory
• Data RAM
• Data EEPROM Data and program m emory use sep arate bus ses which
allow for concurrent access of these blocks. Additional detailed information for Flash program memory and data EEPROM is provided in Section 5.0 “Flash
Program Memory” and Section 7.0 “Data EEPROM Memory”, respectively.
In addition to on-chip Flash, the PIC18F8525/8621 devices are also capable of accessing external program memory through an external memory bus. Depending on the se lected operati ng mod e (disc usse d in Section 4.1.1 “PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 Program Memory Modes”), the controllers may access either internal or external program memory exclusively, or both internal and external memory in selected blocks. Additional information on the external memory interface is provided in Section 6.0 “External
Memory Interface”.

4.1 Program Memory Organization

A 21-bit program counter is capable of addressing the 2-Mbyte program memory space. Accessing a location between the physically implemented memory and the 2-Mbyte address will cause a read of all ‘0’s (a NOP instruction).
The PIC18F6525 and PIC18F8525 each have 48 Kbytes of on-chip Flash memory, while the PIC18F6621 and PIC18F8621 have 64 Kbytes of Flash. This means that PIC18FX525 devices can store inter­nally up to 24,576 single-word instructions and PIC18FX621 devices can store up to 32,768 single-word instructions.
The Reset vector address is at 0000h and the interru pt vector addresses are at 0008h and 0018h.
Figure 4-1 shows the program memory map for PIC18FX525 devices, while Figure 4-2 shows the program memory map for PIC18FX621 devices.

4.1.1 PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 PROGRAM MEMORY MODES

PIC18F8525/8621 device s diff er signific antly from the ir PIC18 predecessors in their utilization of program memory . In addition t o availa ble on-ch ip Flash program memory, these controllers can also address up to 2 Mbytes of external program memory through the external memory interface. There are four distinct operating modes available to the controllers:
• Microprocessor (MP)
• Microprocessor with Boot Block (MPBB)
• Extended Microcontroller (EMC)
• Microcontroller (MC)
The Program Memory mode is determined by setting the two Least Significant bits of the CONFIG3L Configuration Byte register as shown in Register 4-1 (see Section 24.1 “Configuration Bits” for additional details on the device configuration bits).
The Program Memory modes operate as follows:
•The Microprocessor Mode permits access only
to external program memory; the contents of the on-chip Flash memory are ignored. The 21-bit program counter permits access to a 2-Mbyte linear program memory space.
• The Microprocessor with Boot Block Mode
accesses on-chip Flash memory from addresses 000000h to 0007FFh. Above this, external program memory is accessed all the way up to the 2-Mbyte limit. Program execution automatically switches between the two memories as required.
• The Microcontroller Mode accesses only
on-chip Flash memory. Attempts to read above the physical limit of the on-chip Flash (BFFFh for the PIC18FX525, FFFFh for the PIC18FX621) causes a read of all ‘0’s (a NOP instruction). The Microcontroller mode is also the only operating mode available to PIC18F6525/6621 devices.
•The Extended Microcontroller Mode allows
access to both internal and external program memories as a single block. The device can access its entire on-chip Flash memory; above this, the device accesses external program memory up to the 2-Mbyte program space limit. As with Boot Block mode, ex ecution a utomatica lly switches between the two memories as required.
In all modes, the microcontroller has complete access to data RAM and EEPROM.
Figure 4-3 compares t he me mo ry m aps of the different program memory modes. The differences between on-chip and external memory access limitations are more fully explained in Table 4-1.

4.2 Return Address St ack

The return address s tack allows any combinatio n of up to 31 program calls and interrupts to occur. The PC (Program Counter) is pushed onto the stack when a CALL or RCALL instruction is 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, with the Stack Pointer initialized to 00000b after all Resets. There is no RAM associated with Stack Pointer 00000b. This is only a Reset value. During a CALL type instruc tion caus ing a push o nto the stack, the Stack Pointer is first incremented and the RAM location pointed to by the Stack Pointer is written with the contents of the PC. During a RETURN type instruction causing a pop from the stack, the contents of the RAM location point ed to by the STKP TR reg ister are transferred to the PC and then the Stack Pointer is decremented.
The stack space is not part of either program or data space. The Stack Pointer is readable and writable and the address on the top of the stack is readable and writable through SFR registers. Data can also be pushed to, or po pped f rom the stac k usi ng the Top-of­Stack SFRs. Status bits indicate if the Stack Pointer is at or beyond the 31 levels provided.

4.2.1 TOP-OF-STACK ACCESS

The top of the stack is readable and writable. Three register locations, TOSU, TOSH and TOSL, hold the contents of the stack location pointed to by the STKPTR register. 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 and TOSL registers. These values can be placed on a us er defined s oftware st ack. At return time, the software can replace the TOSU, TOSH and TOSL and do a return.
The user must disable the global interrupt enable bits during this time to prevent inadvertent stack operations.

4.2.2 RETURN STACK POINTER (STKPTR)

The STKPTR register contai ns the S t ack Poi nter valu e, the STKFUL (Stack Full) status bit and the STKUNF (Stack Underflow) status bits. Register 4-2 shows the STKPTR register . T he value of the St ack Pointer ca n be 0 through 31. The Stack Pointer increments when values are pushed onto the stack and decrements when values are popped off the stack. At Reset, the Stack Pointer value will be ‘0’. The user may read and write the Stack Pointer value. Thi s feature can be used by a real-time operating system for return stack maintenance.
After the PC is pus hed on to the st ack 31 tim es (wi thout popping any values off the stack), the STKFUL bit is set. The STKFUL bit can on ly be cleared in so ftware 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 25.0 “Instruction Set Summary” 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 ‘0’.
If STVREN is cleared, the STKFUL bit will be set on the 31st push and the Stack Pointer will increment to 31. Any additional pushes will not overwrite the 31st push and STKPTR will remain at 31.
When the stack has been popped enough times to unload the stac k, the next pop will ret urn a value of zero to the PC and sets the STKUNF bit, while the Stack Pointer remains at ‘0’. The STKUNF bit will remain set until cleared in software or a POR occurs.
Note: Returning a value of zero to the PC on an
underflow has the effect of vectoring the program to the Reset vector, where the stack conditions can be verified and appropriate actions can be taken.

4.2.3 PUSH AND POP INSTRUCTIONS

Since the Top-of-Stack (TOS) is readable and writable, the ability to push valu es onto the stack and pull va lues off the stack, without disturbing normal program execution, is a des irable optio n. To push the current PC value onto the stack, a PUSH instruction can be executed. This will increment the Stack Pointer and load the current PC val ue onto th e sta ck. TOSU, TOSH and TOSL can then be modified to place a return address on the stack.
The ability to pull the TOS value off of the stack and replace it with the value that was previously pushed onto the stack, without disturbing normal execution, is achieved by using the POP instruction. The POP instruction discards th e current TOS by decrem enting the Stack Pointer. The previous value pushed onto the stack then becomes the TOS value.
2005 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39612B-page 43

4.2.4 STACK FULL/UNDERFLOW RESETS

These Resets are enabled by programming the STVREN configuration bit. When the STVREN bit is disabled, a full or underflow condition will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit, but not cause a device Rese t. Wh en t he ST VRE N bit is en abl ed, a full or underflow condition will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit and then cause a device Reset. The STKFUL or STKUNF bits are only cleared by the user software or a Power-on Reset.
PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621

4.3 Fast Register Stack

A “fast interrupt return” optio n is available for in terrupts. A fast register stack is provided for the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers and is onl y one in depth. The stack is not readable or writable and is loaded with the current value of the corresponding register when the processor vectors for an interrupt. The values in the registers are then loaded back into the working registers if the FAST RETURN instruction is used to return from the interrupt.
A low or high priority interrupt source will push values into the stack registers. If both low and high priority interrupts are enabled, the stack registers cannot be used reliably for 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.
If high priority interrupts are not disabled during low priority inte rr up ts, us e rs mu st save th e key r eg ist er s in software during a low priority interrupt.
If no interrupts are used, the fast register stack can be used to restore the STA TUS, WR EG and BSR regis ters at the end of a subr out ine ca ll. To use the fast registe r stack for a subroutine call, a FAST CALL instruction must be executed.
Example 4-1 shows a source code example that uses the fast register stack.

4.4 PCL, PCLATH and PCLATU

The Program Counter (PC) s pecifies the ad dress of the instruction to fetch for execution. The PC is 21 bits wide. The low byte is called the PCL register; this reg­ister is readable and writable. The high byte is called the PCH register. This register contains the PC<15:8> bits and is not directly readable or writable; updates to the PCH register may be performed through the PCLATH register. The upper byte is called PCU. This register contains th e PC<20 :16> bit s an d is not d irectly readable or writable; updates to the PCU register may be performed through the PCLATU register.
The PC addresses bytes in the program memory. To prevent the PC from becoming misaligned with word instructions, the LSB of the PCL is fixed to a value of ‘0’. The PC increments by 2 to address sequential instructions in the program memo ry.
The CALL, RCALL, GOTO and program branch instruc­tions write to the program counter directly. For these instructions, the contents of PCLA TH and PCLATU a re not transferred to the program counter.
The contents of PCLATH and PCLATU will be transferred to the program counter by a n operatio n that writes PCL. Similarly, the upper two bytes of the program counter will be transferred to PCLATH and PCLATU by an operation that reads PCL. This is useful for computed offsets to the PC (see Section 4.8.1
“Computed GOTO”).
4.5 Clocking Scheme/Instruction
Cycle
The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature clocks, namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the Program Cou nter (PC) is increment ed every Q1, the instruction is fetched from the program memory and latched into the Instruction Register (IR) in Q4. The instruction is decoded and executed during the following Q1 through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow are shown in Figure 4-5.

4.6 Instruction Flow/Pipelining

An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instruc ti on fe tch and execute are pipelined such that fetch takes one instruction cycle, while decode and execute take another instruction cycle. However, due to the pipelining, each instruction effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction causes the program counter to change (e.g., GOTO),
A fetch cycle begins with the Program Counter (PC) incrementing in Q1.
In the execution cy cle, the fetch ed instruction i s latched into the “Instruction Register” (IR) in cycle Q1. This instruction is then decoded and executed during the Q2, Q3 and Q4 c ycles. Dat a m emory is read during Q2 (operand read) and written during Q4 (destination write).
then two cycles are re quired to com plete the inst ruction (Example 4-2).

4.7 Instructions in Program Memory

word boundaries, the data contained in the instruction is a word address. The word address is written to
The program memory is addressed in bytes. Instruc­tions are stored as two bytes or four bytes in program memory. The Least Significant Byte of an instruction word is always stored in a program memory location with an even address (LSB = 0). Figure 4-6 shows an example of how instructi on words are stored in the pro­gram memory. To maintain alignment with instruction boundaries, the PC increments in steps of 2 and the LSB will always read ‘0’ (see Section 4.4 “PCL, PCLATH and PCLATU”).
PC<20:1> which accesses the desired byte address in program memory. Instruction #2 in Figure 4-6 shows how the instruction “GOTO 000006h” is encod ed in the program memory. Program branch instructions, which encode a relative address offset, operate in the same manner . The offset value stored in a branch inst ruc tio n represents the number of single-word instructions that the PC will be of fse t by. Section 25.0 “Instruction Set Summary” provides further details of the instruction
set. The CALL and GOTO instructions have an absolute program memory address embedded into the
instruction. Since instructions are always stored on

4.7.1 TWO-WORD INSTRUCTIONS

The PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 devices have four two-word instructions: MOVFF, CALL, GOTO and LFSR. The second word of t hes e ins tru cti ons h as the 4 M SBs set to ‘1’s and is a special kind of NOP instru ct ion . The lower 12 bits of the second word contain data to be used by the instru ction. If the fi rst word of the i nstruction is executed, the data in the second word is accessed.
If the second word of the ins truction is executed by itself (first word was skipped), it will execute as a NOP. This action is necessary when the two-word instruction is preceded by a co nd i ti ona l in st ru ct i on t h at c han ge s t he PC. A program example that demonstrates this con cept is shown in Example 4-3. Refer to Section 25.0 “Instruction Set Summary” for further details of the instruction set.

4.8 Look-up Tables

Look-up tables are implemented two ways. These are:
• Computed GOTO
• Table Reads

4.8.1 COMPUTED GOTO

A computed GOTO is accomplish ed by adding an offset to the program counter (ADDWF PCL).
A look-up table can be formed with an ADDWF PCL instruction and a group of RETLW 0xnn instructions. WREG is loaded with a n o ffset into the table be fore exe­cuting a call to that t able. Th e first instruction of the c alled
routine is the ADDWF PCL instruction. The next instruction executed will be one of the RETLW 0xnn instructions that returns the valu e 0xnn to the calling function.
The offset v alue (val ue in WR EG) sp ecifies the numb er of bytes that the program counter should advance.
In this method, only one data byte may be stored in each instruction location and room on the return address stack is required.
Note: The ADDWF PCL instruction does not
update PCLATH and PCLATU. A read operation on PCL must be performed to update PCLATH and PCLATU.
EXAMPLE 4-4: COMPUTED GOTO USING AN OFFSET VALUE
MAIN: ORG 0x0000
TABLE MOVF PCL, F ; A simple read of PCL will update PCLATH, PCLATU
MOVLW 0x00 CALL TABLE
ORG 0x8000
RLNCF W, W ; Multiply by 2 to get correct offset in table ADDWF PCL ; Add the modified offset to force jump into table RETLW ‘A’ RETLW ‘B’ RETLW ‘C’ RETLW ‘D’ RETLW ‘E’ END

4.8.2 TABLE READS/TABLE WRITES

A better method of storing data in program memory allows 2 bytes of data to be stored in each instruction location.
Look-up table data may be stored 2 bytes per program word by using tab le reads and writes. The Table Pointer (TBLPTR) specifies the byte address and the Table Latch (TABLAT) contains the data that is read from, or written to program memory. Data is transferred to/from

4.10 Access Bank

The Access Bank is an architectural enhancement, which is very useful for C compiler code optimization. The techniques used by the C compiler may also be useful for programs written in assembly.
This data memory region can be used for:
• Intermediate computational values
• Local variables of subroutines
• Faster context saving/switching of variables
• Common variables
• Faster evaluation/control of SFRs (no banking) The Access Bank is comprised of the upper 160 bytes
in Bank 15 (SFRs) and the lower 96 bytes in Bank 0. These two sections will be referred to as Access RAM High and Access RAM Low, respectively. Figure 4-7 indicates the Access RAM areas.
A bit in the instruction word spec ifie s if the opera tion is to occur in the bank spec ifi ed by the BSR register or in the Access Bank. This bit is denoted by the ‘a’ bit (for access bit).
When forced in the Access Bank (a = 0), the last address in Access RAM Low is followed by the first address in Access RAM High. Access RAM High maps the Special Function R egisters so that these r egisters can be accessed without any software overhead. This is useful for testing status flags and modifying control bits.

4.1 1 Bank Select Register (BSR)

The need for a large general purpose memory space dictates a RAM banking scheme. The data memory is partitioned into sixteen banks. When using direct addressing, the BSR should be configured for the desired bank.
BSR<3:0> holds the upper 4 bits of the 12-bit RAM address. The BSR<7:4> bits will always read ‘0’s and writes will have no effect.
A MOVLB instruction has been provided in the instruction set to assist in selecting banks.
If the currently selected bank is not implemented, any read will return all ‘0’s and all writes are ignored. The ST ATUS register bit s wil l b e set/c le ared as ap prop ria te for the instruction performed.
Each Bank extends up to FFh (256 bytes). All data memory is implemented as static RAM.
A MOVFF instruction ignores the BSR since the 12-bit addresses are embedded into the instruction word.
Section 4.12 “Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR Registers” provides a description of indirect address-
ing which allows linear addressing of the entire RAM space.

4.12 Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR Registers

Indirect addressing is a mode of addressing dat a mem­ory, where the data memory address in the instruction is not fixed. An FSR regis ter i s u sed as a poi nte r to th e data memory location that i s to be read or written. Since this pointer is in RAM, the cont en t s c an be mo difi ed by the program. This can be useful for data tables in the data memory and for software stacks. Figure 4-9 shows the operation of indirect addressing. This shows the moving of the value to the data memory address specified b y the value of the FSR register.
Indirect addressing is possible by using one of the INDF registers. Any instruction using the INDF register actually accesses the register pointed to by the File Select Register, FSR. Reading the INDF register itself indirectly (FSR = 0), will read 00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly, results in a no operation (NOP). The FSR register contains a 12-bit address whic h is shown in Figure 4-10.
The INDFn register is not a physical register. Address­ing INDFn actually addresses the register whose address is contained in the FSRn register (FSRn is a pointer). T his is indir ect addressing.
Example 4-5 shows a simple use of indire ct addressin g to clear the RAM in Bank 1 (locations 100h-1FFh) in a minimum number of instructions.
EXAMPLE 4-5: HOW TO CLEAR RAM
(BANK 1) USING INDIRECT ADDRESSING
LFSR FSR0, 0x100 ;
NEXT CLRF POSTINC0 ; Clear INDF
; register and ; inc pointer
BTFSS FSR0H, 1 ; All done with
; Bank1?
GOTO NEXT ; NO, clear next
CONTINUE ; YES, continue
There are three indirect addressing registers. To address the entire data memory space (4096 bytes), these registers are 12 bits wide. To store the 12 bits of addressing information, two 8-bit registers are required. These indirect addres si ng regi ste r s are:
1. FSR0: composed of FSR0H:FSR0L
2. FSR1: composed of FSR1H:FSR1L
3. FSR2: composed of FSR2H:FSR2L
In addition, there are registers INDF0, INDF1 and INDF2, which are not physically implemented. Reading or writing to these registers activates indirect address­ing, with the value in the corresponding FSR register being the a ddress of the data. If an instruction writes a value to INDF0, th e v al ue will be w ritten to the address pointed to by FSR 0H:FSR0L. A read f rom INDF 1 reads
the data from the address pointed to by FSR1H:FSR1L. INDFn can be used in code anywhere an operand can be used.
If INDF0, I NDF1 or INDF2 are re ad indirectly via an FSR, all ‘0’s are read (zero bit is set). Similarly, if INDF0, INDF1 or INDF2 are written to indirectly, the operation will be equivale nt to a NOP instruction and the Status bits are not affected.

4.12.1 INDIRECT ADDRESSING OPERATION

Each FSR register has an INDF register associated with it, plus four addition al register addresses. Perform ­ing an operation on one of these five registers determines how the FSR will be modified during indirect addressing.
When data access is done to one of the five INDFn locations, the address selected will configure the FSRn register to:
• Do nothing to FSRn after an indirect access (no
change) – INDFn.
• Auto-decrement FSRn after an indir ect access
(post-decrement) – POSTDECn.
• Auto-increment FSRn after an indirect access
(post-increment) – POSTINCn.
• Auto-increment FSRn before an indirect a c cess
(pre-increment) – PREINCn.
• Use the value in the WREG register as an offset
to FSRn. Do not mo dify the va lue of the WREG or the FSRn register after an indirect access (no change) – PLUSWn.
When using the auto-increment or auto-decrement features, the effect on the FSR is not reflected in the STATUS register. For example, if the indirect address causes the FSR to equal ‘0’, the Z bit will not be set.
Incrementing or decrementing an FSR affects all 12 bits. That is, when FSRnL overflows from an increment, FSRnH will be incremented automatically.
Adding these features allows the FSRn to be used as a Stac k Pointer in addi tion to its uses for table ope rations in data memo ry.
Each FSR has an address associated with it that performs an indexed indirect access. When a data access to this INDFn location (PLUSWn) occurs, the FSRn is configured to add the signed value in the WREG register and the value in FSR to form the address before an indirect access. The FSR value is not changed.
If an FSR register contains a value that poin ts to one of the INDFn, an indirect read will read 00h (zero bit is set), whil e an i ndi re ct wri te will be equ ival ent t o a NOP (Status bits are not affected).
If an indirect addressing operation is done where the target address is an FSRnH or FSRnL register, the write operation will dominate over the pre- or post-increment/decrement functions.

4.13 STATUS Register

The STATUS register, shown in Register4-3, contains the arithmetic status of the ALU. As wi th any other SFR, it can be the operand for any instruction.
If the STATUS register is the destination for an instruc­tion that affects the Z, DC, C, OV or N bit s, the result s of the instruction are not written; instead, the status is updated according to the instruction performed. There­fore, the result of an instruction with the STA TUS register as its destination may be different than intended. As an example, CLRF STATUS will set the Z bit and leave the remaining Sta tus bit s unc hanged (‘000u u1uu’).

5.0 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 8 byt es at a time. Program memory is erase d 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

5.1 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 5-1 shows the operation of a table read with program memory and data RAM.
Table write operations store data from the data memory space into holding registers in program memory. The procedure to write the contents of the holding registers into program memory is detailed in Section 5.5 “Writing to Flash Program Memory”. Figure 5-2 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.

5.2 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

5.2.1 EECON1 AND EECON2 REGISTERS

EECON1 is the control register for memory accesses. EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2
will read all ‘0’s. The EECON2 register is used exclusively in the memory write and erase sequences.
Control bit, EEPGD, determines if the access will be 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.
Control bit, CFGS, determines if the access will be to the Configuration/Calibration registers or to program memory/data EEPROM memory. When set, subsequent operations will operate on Configuration registers regardless of EEPGD (see Section 24.0 “Special Features o f the CPU”). Wh en clear , memory selection access is determined by EEPGD.
The FREE bit, when set, will allow a program memory erase operation. When the FREE bit 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 . T he WRERR bit is set when a write operation is interrupted by a MCLR Reset or a WDT Time-out Reset during normal opera­tion. In these situations, the user can check the WRERR bit and rewrite the location. It is necessary to reload the data and address regi sters (EEDATA and EEADR) due to Reset values of zero.
Note: Durin g normal o peration, t he WRERR bi t
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. The inability to clear the WR bit in software prevents the accidental or premature termination of a write operation.
Note: Interrupt flag bit, EEIF in the PIR2 registe r ,
is set when the write is complete. It must be cleared in software.

5.2.2 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.

5.2.3 TBLPTR – TABLE POINTER REGISTER

The Table Pointer register (TBL P TR ) ad dre sses a by te within the program memory. The TBLPTR is comprised of three SFR registers : Table Point er Upper By te, 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-order 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, TBLPTR, is used by the TBLRD and TBLWT instructions. These instructions can update the TBLPTR in one of four ways based on the table opera­tion. These operations are shown in Table 5-1. These operations on the TBLPTR only affect the low-order 21 bits.

5.2.4 TABLE POINTER BOUNDARIES

TBLPTR is used in reads, writes and erases of the Flash program memory.
When a TBLRD is executed, all 22 bits of the TBLPTR determine which byte is read from program memory into TABL AT.
When a TBLWT is executed, th e three LSbs o f the Table Pointer register (TBLP TR<2:0>) determine which of the eight program memory holding registers is written to. When the timed write to program memory (long write) begins, the 19 MSbs of the TBLPTR (TBLPTR<21:3>) will determine which program memory block of 8 bytes is written to. For mo re det ail, see Sectio n 5.5 “Writing to Flash Program Memory”.
When an erase of program memory is executed, the 16 MSbs of the Table Pointer register (TBLPTR<21:6>) point to the 64-byte block that will be erased . The Least Significant bits (TBLPTR<5:0>) are ignored.
Figure 5-3 describes the relevant boundaries of TBLPTR based on Flash program memory operations.

5.3 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 points to a byte address in program 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 Significant b it of th e address selects between the high and low bytes of the word. Figure 5-4 shows the interface between the internal program memory and the TABLAT.

5.4 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

5.4.1 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 AAh to EECON2.
6. Set the WR bit. This will begin the row erase
cycle.
7. The CPU will stall for duration of the erase
(about 2 ms using internal timer).
8. Re-enable interrupts.

5.5 Writing to Flash Program Memory

The minimum programmi ng block is 4 words or 8 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 8 holding registers used by the table writes for programming.
Since the Table Latch (TABLAT) is only a single byte, the TBLWT instruction has to be executed 8 times for each programming operation. All of the table write operations will e ssenti ally be sh ort wr ites bec ause only
the holding registers are w ritte n. At the end of upda ting 8 registers, the EECON1 register must be w ritten to, to start the programming operation with a long write.
The long write is necessary for programming the internal Flash. 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 for byte or word operations.

5.5.1 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY WRITE SEQUENCE

The sequence of events for programming an internal program memory location should b e:
1. Read 64 bytes in to RAM.
2. Update data values in RAM as necessary.
3. Load Table Pointer register with address being
erased.
4. Do the row erase procedure.
5. Load Table Pointer register with address of first
byte being written.
6. Write the first 8 bytes into the holding registers
with auto-increment.
7. Set the EECON1 register for the write operatio n:
• 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 AAh to EECON2. 1 1. Set the WR bit. This will begin the write cycle.
12. The CPU will st all for d uration o f the w rite (abo ut 2 ms using internal timer).
13. Re-enable interrupts.
14. Repeat steps 6-14 seven times to write 64 bytes.
15. Verify the memory (table read).
This procedure will require about 18 ms to update one row of 64 bytes of memory. An example of the required code is given in Example 5-3.
Note: Before setting the WR bit, the Table
Pointer address needs to be within the intended address range of the eight bytes in the holding register.

5.5.2 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.

5.5.3 UNEXPECTED TERMINATION OF WRITE OPERATION

5.5.4 PROTECTION AGAINST SPURIOUS WRITES

To protect against spurious writes to Flash program memory, the write initiate sequence must also be followed. See Section 24.0 “Sp eci al F eatu res of the

INTERFACE
Note: The external memory interface is not
implemented on PIC18F6525/6621 (64-pin) devices.
The external memory interface is a feature of the PIC18F8525/8621 devices that allows the controller to access external memory devices (such as Flash, EPROM, SRAM, etc.) as program or data memory.
The physical implementation of the interface uses 27 pins. These pins are reserved for external address/ data bus functions; they are multiplexed with I/O port pins on four ports. Three I/O ports are multiplexed with the address/data bus, while the fourth port is multipl exed with the bus control signals. The I/O port functions are enabled when the EBDIS bit in the MEMCON register is set (see Register 6-1). A list of the multiplexed pins and their functions is provided in Table 6-1.
As implemented in the PIC18F8525/8621 devices, the interface operates in a similar manner to the external memory interface introduced on PIC18C601/801 micro­controllers. The most notable difference is that the interface on PIC18F8525/8621 devices only operates in 16-bit modes. The 8-bit mode is not supported.
For a more complete discussion of the op erating modes that use the external memory interface, refer to
Section 4.1.1 “PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 Program Memory Modes”.

6.1 Program Memory Modes and the External Memory Interface

As previously noted, PIC18F8525/8621 controllers are capable of operating in any one of four program mem­ory modes using combinations of on-chip and external program memory. The functions of the multi plexe d po rt pins depends on the program memory mode selected, as well as the setting of the EBDIS bit.
In Microprocessor Mode, the external bus is always active and the port pins have only the external bus function.
In Microcontroller Mode, the bus is not active and the pins have their port functions only. Writes to the MEMCOM register are not permitted.
In Microprocessor with Boot Block or Extended Microcontroller Mode, the external program memory bus shares I/O port functions on the pins. When the device is fetching or doing table read/table write oper­ations on the external program memory space, the pins will have the external bus function. If the device is fetching and accessin g inte rnal program memory loca­tions only, the EBDIS control bit will change the pins from external memory to I/O port functions. When EBDIS = 0, the pins function as the external bus. When EBDIS = 1, the pins function as I/Oports.

If the device fetches or accesses external memory while EBDIS = 1, the pins will switch to external bus. If the EBDIS bit is set by a program executing from external memory, the action of setting the bit will be delayed until the program branches into the internal memory. At that time, the pins will change from external bus to I/O ports.
When the device is exec uting out of internal memory (EBDIS = 0) in Microprocessor with Boot Block mode or Extended Microcontroll er mode, the control signals will NOT be active. They will go to a state where th e AD<15:0> and A<19:16> are tri-state; the CE WRH

6.2 16-Bit Mode

The external memory interface implemented in PIC18F8525/8621 devices operates only in 16-bit mode. The mode selec tion i s not softw are c onfigu rabl e but is programmed via the configuration bits.
The WM1:WM0 bits in the MEMCON register determine three types of connections in 16-bit mode. They are referred to as:
• 16-bit Byte Write
• 16-bit Word Write
• 16-bit Byte Select These three different configurations allow the designer
maximum flexibility in using 8-bit and 16-bit memory devices.
For all 16-bit modes, the Address Latch Enable (ALE) pin indicates that the address bits, A15:A0, are available on the external memory interface bus. Following the address latch, the Output Enable signal

) is active at any time that the microcontroll er
In Byte Select mode, JEDEC st andard Flash me mories will require BA0 for the byte address line and one I/O line, to select betw een Byte an d Word mode. The other 16-bit modes do not nee d BA0. J EDE C st a ndard static RAM memories will use the UB
or LB signals for byte
selection.

6.2.1 16-BIT BYTE WRITE MODE

Figure 6-1 shows an example of 16-bit Byte Write mode for PIC18F8525/8621 devices. This mode is used for two separate 8-bit memories connected for 16-bit operation. This generally includes basic EPROM and Flash devices. It allows table writes to byte-wide external memories.
During a TBLWT instruction cycle, the TABLAT data is presented on the upper and lower bytes of the AD15:AD0 bus. The appropriate WRH line is strobed on the LSb of the TBLPTR.

6.2.2 16-BIT WORD WRITE MODE

Figure 6-2 shows an example of 16-bit Word Write mode for PIC18F8525/8621 devices. This mode is used for word-wide memories which include some of the EPROM and Flash type memories. This mode allows opcode fetche s and table read s from all forms of 16-bit memory and table writes to any type of word­wide external memories. This method makes a distinction between TBLWT cycles to even or odd addresses.
During a TBLWT cycle to an even address (TBLPTR<0> = 0), the TABLAT data is transferred to a
During a TBLWT cycle to an odd address (TBLPTR<0> = 1), th e TABLAT data is p resented on the upper byte of the AD15:AD0 bus. The contents of the holding latch are pre sented on the lower byte of the AD15:AD0 bus.

6.2.3 16-BIT BYTE SELECT MODE

Figure 6-3 shows an example of 16-bit Byte Select mode for PIC18F8525 /8621 dev ices. This mode a llows table write operations to word-wide external memories with byte selection capability. This generally includes both word-wide Flash and SRAM devices.
During a TBLWT cycle, the TABLAT data is pr esented
Flash and SRAM devices use different control signal combinations to implement Byte Select mode. JEDEC standard Flash memories require that a controller I/O port pin be connected to the memory’s BY TE/WORD pin to provide the select si gna l. The y als o use the BA0 signal from the controller as a byte address. JEDEC standard static RAM memories, on the other hand, use the UB
on the upper an d lower byte of th e AD1 5:AD0 b us. Th e
signal is strobed for each write cycle; the WRL
WRH pin is not used. The BA0 or UB/LB signals are used to select the byte to be written based on the Least Significant bit of the TBLPTR register.

7.0 DATA EEPROM MEMORY

The data EEPROM is readable and writable during normal operation over the entire V memory is not directly mapped in the register file space. Instead, it is indirectly addressed through the Special Function Registers (SFR).
There are five SFRs used to read and write the program and data EEPROM memory. These registers are:
• EECON1
• EECON2
• EEDATA
• EEADRH
• EEADR The EEPROM data memory allows byte read and write.
When interfacing to the data memory block, EEDATA holds the 8-bit data for read/write. EEADR and EEADRH hold the address of the EEPROM location being accessed. These devices have 1024 bytes of data EEPROM with an address range from 00h to 3FFh.
The EEPROM data memory is rated for high erase/ write cycles. A byt e write autom atically er ases the loc a­tion and writes the new data (erase-before-write). The write time is controlled by an on-chip timer. The write time will vary with vo ltag e and tempe rat ure, as wel l as from chip-to-chip. Please refer to parameter D122 (Section 27.0 “Elec trica l Cha racte risti cs”) for exact limits.
DD range. Th e data

7.1 EEADR and EEADRH

The address register pair can address up to a maximum of 1024 bytes of data EEPROM. The two Most Significant bits of the address are stored in EEADRH, while the remaining eight Least Significant bits are stored in EEADR. The six Most Significant bits of EEADRH are unused and are read as ‘0’.

7.2 EECON1 and EECON2 Registers

EECON1 is the control register for EEPROM memory accesses.
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2 will read all ‘0’s. The EECON2 register is used exclusively in the EEPROM write sequence.
Control bits RD and WR initiate read and write operations, respec tiv el y. These bits ca nno t be cle are d, only set in software. They are cleared in hardware at the completion of the read or write operation. The inability to clear the WR bit in software prevents the accidental or premature termination of a write operation.
Note: Durin g normal o peration, t he WRERR bi t
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 WREN bit, when set, will allow a write operation. On power-up, the WREN bit is c lear . Th e WRERR bit is set when a write operation is interrupted by a MCLR Reset or a WDT Time-out Reset during normal operation. In these situations, the user can check the WRERR bit and rewrite the location. It is necessary to reload the data and address regi sters (EEDATA and EEADR) due to the Reset condition forcing the contents of the registers to zero.
Note: Interrupt flag bit, EEIF in the PIR2 registe r ,
is set when write is complete. It must be cleared in software.

7.3 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>), clear the CFGS
control bit (EECON1<6>) and then set the RD control bit (EECON1<0>). The data is available for the very next instruction cycle; therefore, the EEDATA register can be read by the next instruction. EEDATA will hold this value until another read operation or until it is written to by the user (during a write operation).

7.4 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. Then the sequence in Example7-2 must be followed to initiate the write cycle.
The write will not initiate if the above sequence is not exactly followed (write 55h to EECON2, write AAh to EECON2, then set WR bit) for each byte. It is strongly recommended that interrupts be disabled during this code segment.
Additionally, the WREN bit in EECON1 must be set to enable writes. This mechanism prevents accidental writes to data EEPROM due to unexpected code
execution (i.e., runaway programs). The WREN bit should be kept clear at all times except when updating the EEPROM. The WREN bit is not cleared by hardware.
After a write sequence has been initiated, EECON1, EEADRH, EEADR and EEDATA cannot be modified. The WR bit will be inhibited from being set unless the WREN bit is set. 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 th e EEPROM Write Complete Interrupt Flag bit (EEIF) is set. The user may either enable this interrupt or poll this bit. EEIF must be cleared by software.

PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621

7.5 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.

7.6 Protection Against Spurious Write

There are c onditions when the user may no t want to write to the data EEPROM memory. To protect against spurious EEPROM writes, various mechanisms have been built -in. On powe r-up, the WR EN bit is cl eared. Also, the Power-up Timer (72 ms duration) prevents EEPROM write.
The write initiate se quence and the WREN bit together help prevent an accidental write during brown-out, power glitch or software malfunction.

7.7 Operation During Code-Protect

Data EEPROM memory has its own code-protect mechanism. External read and write operations are disabled if either of these mechanisms are enabled. Refer to Section 24.0 “Special Features of the
CPU”, for additional information.

7.8 Using the Data EEPROM

The data EEPROM is a high endurance, byte addressable 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 ar ray r efr esh m ust be pe rfor med . For this reason, variables that change infrequently (such as constants, IDs, calibration, etc.) should be stored in Flash program memory.
A simple data EEPROM refresh routine is shown in Example 7-3.

An 8 x 8 hardware multiplier is included in the ALU of the PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 devices. By making the multiply a hardware operation, it completes in a single instruction cycle. This is an unsigned multiply that gives a 16-bit result. The result is stored in the 16-bit product register pair (PRODH:PRODL). The multiplier does not affect any flags in the ALUSTA register.
Making the 8 x 8 multiplier execute in a single cycle gives the following advantages:
• Higher computational throughput
• Reduces code size requirements for multiply algorithms
The performance increas e allows the device to be used in applications previously reserved for Digital Signal Processors.
Table 8-1 shows a perf ormance comparison be tween Enhanced devices using the single-cycle hardware multiply and performing the same function without the hardware multiply.

8.2 Operation

Example 8-1 shows the sequence to do an 8 x 8 unsigned multiply. Only one instruction is required when one argument of the multiply is already loaded in the WREG register.
Example 8-2 shows the se quence to do an 8 x 8 si gned multiply. To account for the signed bits of the arguments, e ach argu ment’ s Most Signific ant bit (MSb) is tested and the appropriate subtractions are done.

9.0 INTERRUPTS

The PIC18F6525/6621/8525/8621 devices have multi­ple interrupt sources and an interrupt priority feature that allows each in terru pt source to be assigned a high or a low prio rity leve l. T he hi gh pr io rit y in terr upt ve cto r is at 000008h, while the low priority interrupt vector is at 000018h. High priority interrupt events will override any low priority interrupts that may be in progress.
There are t hirteen r egisters which are used to c ontrol interrupt operation. They are:
• RCON
•INTCON
• INTCON2
• INTCON3
• PIR1, PIR2, PIR3
• PIE1, PIE2, PIE3
• IPR1, IPR2, IPR3 It is recommended that the Microchip header files
supplied with MPLAB names in these registers. This allows the assembler/ compiler to automatical ly ta ke care of the pla ceme nt of these bits within the specified register.
Each interrupt source has three bits to control its operation. The functions of these bits are:
• Flag bit to indicate that an interrupt event occurred
• Enable bit that allows program execution to branch to the interrupt vector address when the flag bit is set
• Priority bit to select high priority or low priority
The interrupt priority feature is enabled by setting the IPEN bit (RCON<7>). When interrupt priority is enabled, there are two bits which enable interrupts globally . Setti ng the GIEH bit (INTC ON<7>) enable s all interrupts that hav e the priority bit set. Setting the GIEL bit (INTCON<6>) enables all interrupts that have the priority bit cleared. When the interrupt flag, enable bit and appropriate global interrupt enable bit are set, the interrupt will vec tor imm ediat ely to addre ss 00 0008h or 000018h, depending on the priority level. Individual interrupts can be disabled through their corresponding enable bits.
®
IDE be used for the symb olic bit
When the IPEN bit is cleared (default state), the interrupt priority feature is disabled and interrupts are compatible with PICmicro Compatibilit y mode, the in terrupt prior ity bits for each source have no effect. INTCON<6> is the PEIE bit which enables/disab les all periph eral interrupt s ources. INTCON<7> is the GIE bit which enables/disables all interrupt sources. All interrupts branch to address 000008h in Compatibility mode.
When an interrupt is responded to, the global interrupt enable bit is cleared to disable further interrupts. If the IPEN bit is cleared, this is the GIE bit. If interru pt priority levels are used, this wi ll be either the GIEH or G IEL bit. High priority interrupt sources can interrupt a low priority interrupt.
The return address is pushed onto the stack and the PC is loaded with the interrupt vector address (000008h or 000018h). Once in the Interrupt Service Routine, the source(s) of the interrupt can be deter­mined by polling the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bits must be cleared in s oftware be fore re-enab ling interrupts to avoid recursive interrupts.
The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits the interrupt routine and set s the GIE bit (GIEH or GI EL if priority levels are used) which re-enables interrupts.
For external interrupt events, such as the INT pins or the PORTB input chang e interrupt, the i nterrupt latenc y will be three to four instruction cycles. The exact latency is the same for one or two-cycle instructions. Individual interrupt flag bits are set regardless of the status of their corresponding enable bit or the GIE bit.

9.4 IPR Registers

The IPR registers contain the individual priority bits for the peripheral interrupts. Due to the number of peripheral interrup t s ources , th ere are thre e Peripheral Interrupt Priority registers (IPR1, IPR2 and IPR3). The operation of the priority bits requires that the Interrupt Priority Enable (IPEN) bit be set.
