PIC12C67X
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PIC12C67X device is a low-cost, high-perfor­mance, CMOS, fully-static, 8-bit microcontroller with integrated analog-to-digital (A/D) converter, in the PIC12CXXX Microcontroller family.
All PIC16/17 microcontrollers employ an advanced RISC architecture. The PIC12C67X microcontrollers have enhanced core features, eight-level deep stack, and multiple internal and external interrupt sources. The separate instruction and data buses of the Harvard architecture allow a 14-bit wide instruction word with the separate 8-bit wide data. The two stage instruction pipeline allows all instructions to execute in a single cycle, except for program branches which require two cycles. A total of 35 instructions (reduced instruction set) are available . Additionally , a large register set giv es some of the architectural innovations used to achie ve a very high performance.
PIC12C67X microcontrollers typically achieve a 2:1 code compression and a 4:1 speed improvement over other 8-bit microcontrollers in their class.
The PIC12C67X devices ha v e 128 bytes of RAM and 6 I/O
pins. In addition a timer/counter is available. Also a 4-channel high-speed 8-bit A/D is provided. The 8-bit resolution is ideally suited for applications requiring low-cost analog interface, e.g. thermostat control, pres­sure sensing, etc.
The PIC12C67X device has special features to reduce external components, thus reducing cost, enhancing system reliability and reducing power consumption. The PIC12C67X products are equipped with special features that reduce system cost and power require­ments. The Power-On Reset (POR), Power-up Timer (PWRT), and Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) eliminate the need for external reset circuitry . There are fiv e oscil­lator configurations to choose from, including INTRC precision internal oscillator mode and the power-saving LP (Low Po wer) oscillator. Power saving SLEEP mode, Watchdog Timer and code protection features improve system cost, power and reliability.The SLEEP (power­down) feature provides a po wer sa ving mode. The user can wake up the chip from SLEEP through several external and internal interrupts and resets.
A highly reliable Watchdog Timer with its own on-chip RC oscillator provides protection against software lock­up.
A UV erasable windowed package version is ideal for code development while the cost-effective One-Time­Programmable (OTP) version is suitable for production in any volume. The customer can take full advantage of Microchip’s price leadership in OTP microcontrollers while benefiting from the OTP’s flexibility.
The PIC12C67X device fits perfectly in applications ranging from security and remote sensors to appliance control and automotive. The EPROM technology makes customization of application programs (trans­mitter codes, motor speeds, receiver frequencies, etc.) extremely fast and convenient. The small footprint packages make this microcontroller series perfect for all applications with space limitations. Low cost, low power, high perf ormance, ease of use and I/O fle xibility make the PIC12C67X very versatile even in areas where no microcontroller use has been considered before (e.g. timer functions, communications and coprocessor applications).
1.1 F
amily and Upward Compatibility

2.0 PIC12C67X DEVICE VARIETIES
A variety of frequency ranges and packaging options are available . Depending on application and production requirements, the proper device option can be selected using the information in the PIC12C67X Product Iden­tification System section at the end of this data sheet. When placing orders, please use that page of the data sheet to specify the correct part number.
For the PIC12C67X, there are two device “types” as indicated in the device number:
1. C , as in PIC12 C 671. These devices have
EPROM type memory and operate over the standard voltage range.
2. LC , as in PIC12 LC 671. These devices have
EPROM type memory and operate over an extended voltage range.
2.1 UV Erasab
le Devices
The UV erasable version, offered in windowed pack­age, is optimal for prototype dev elopment and pilot pro­grams.
The UV erasable version can be erased and repro­grammed to any of the configuration modes. Microchip's PICSTART
Plus and PRO MATE
pro­grammers both support the PIC12C67X. Third party programmers also are available; refer to the Microchip Third Party Guide for a list of sources.
2.2 One-Time-Pr
ogrammable (OTP)
Devices
The availability of OTP devices is especially useful for customers who need the flexibility for frequent code updates and small volume applications.
The OTP devices, packaged in plastic packages, per­mit the user to program them once. In addition to the program memory, the configuration bits must also be programmed.
CAUTION: Calibration values must be read before erasing.

3.0 ARCHITECTURAL OVERVIEW
The high performance of the PIC12C67X family can be attributed to a number of architectural features com­monly found in RISC microprocessors. To begin with, the PIC12C67X uses a Harvard architecture, in which program and data are accessed from separate memo­ries using separate buses. This improves bandwidth over traditional von Neumann architecture in which pro­gram and data are fetched from the same memory using the same bus. Separating program and data buses also allow instructions to be sized differently than the 8-bit wide data word. Instruction opcodes are 14­bits wide making it possible to have all single word instructions. A 14-bit wide program memory access bus fetches a 14-bit instruction in a single cycle. A two­stage pipeline overlaps fetch and execution of instruc­tions (Example 3-1). Consequently, all instructions (35) execute in a single cycle (1 µ s @ 4 MHz) except for pro­gram branches.
The table below lists program memory (EPROM) and data memory (RAM) for each PIC12C67X device.
Device
Program
Memory
Data Memory
PIC12C671 1K x 14 128 x 8 PIC12C672 2K x 14 128 x 8
The PIC12C67X can directly or indirectly address its register files or data memory. All special function regis­ters, including the program counter, are mapped in the data memory. The PIC12C67X has an orthogonal (symmetrical) instruction set that makes it possible to carry out any operation on any register using any addressing mode. This symmetrical nature and lack of ‘special optimal situations’ make programming with the PIC12C67X simple yet efficient. In addition, the learn­ing curve is reduced significantly.
PIC12C67X devices contain an 8-bit ALU and working register. The ALU is a general purpose arithmetic unit. It performs arithmetic and Boolean functions between the data in the working register and any register file.
The ALU is 8-bits wide and capable of addition, sub­traction, shift and logical operations. Unless otherwise mentioned, arithmetic operations are two's comple­ment in nature. In two-operand instructions, typically one operand is the working register (W register). The other operand is a file register or an immediate con­stant. In single operand instructions, the operand is either the W register or a file register.
The W register is an 8-bit working register used f or ALU operations. It is not an addressable register.
Depending on the instruction executed, the ALU may affect the values of the Carry (C), Digit Carry (DC), and Zero (Z) bits in the STATUS register. The C and DC bits operate as a borro
w bit and a digit borrow out bit, respectively, in subtraction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF instructions for examples.

3.1 Cloc
king Scheme/Instruction Cycle
The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature clocks namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the pro­gram counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, the instruction is fetched from the program memory and latched into the instruction register in Q4. The instruc­tion is decoded and executed during the following Q1 through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow is shown in Figure 3-2.
3.2 Instruction Flo
w/Pipelining
An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instr uction fetch and execute are pipelined such that fetch takes one instruction cycle while decode and execute takes another instruction cycle. However, due to the pipelining, each instruction effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction causes the program counter to change (e.g. GOTO ) then two cycles are required to complete the instruction (Example 3-1).
A fetch cycle begins with the program counter (PC) incrementing in Q1.
In the execution cycle, the fetched instruction is latched into the “Instruction Register" (IR) in cycle Q1. This instruction is then decoded and executed during the Q2, Q3, and Q4 cycles. Data memory is read during Q2 (operand read) and written during Q4 (destination write).

4.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION
4.1 Pr
ogram Memory Organization
The PIC12C67X has a 13-bit program counter capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory space.
For the PIC12C671 the first 1K x 14 (0000h-03FFh) is implemented.
For the PIC12C672, the first 2K x 14 (0000h-07FFh) is implemented. Accessing a location above the physi­cally implemented address will cause a wraparound. The reset vector is at 0000h and the interrupt vector is at 0004h.

4.2 Data Memor
y Organization
The data memory is partitioned into two Banks which contain the General Purpose Registers and the Special Function Registers. Bit RP0 is the bank select bit.
RP0 (STATUS<5>) = 1 → Bank 1 RP0 (STATUS<5>) = 0 → Bank 0 Each Bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes). The lower
locations of each Bank are reserved for the Special Function Registers. Abo ve the Special Function Regis­ters are General Purpose Registers implemented as static RAM. Both Bank 0 and Bank 1 contain special function registers. Some "high use" special function registers from Bank 0 are mirrored in Bank 1 for code reduction and quicker access.
Also note that F0h through FFh on the PIC12C67X is mapped into Bank 0 registers 70h-7Fh.
4.2.1 GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE The register file can be accessed either directly , or indi-
rectly through the File Select Register FSR (Section 4.5).

4.2.2 SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS The Special Function Registers are registers used by
the CPU and Peripheral Modules for controlling the desired operation of the device. These registers are implemented as static RAM.
The special function registers can be classified into two sets (core and peripheral). Those registers associated with the “core” functions are described in this section, and those related to the operation of the peripheral features are described in the section of that peripheral feature.

4.2.2.1 STATUS REGISTER The STATUS register, shown in Figure 4-3, contains
the arithmetic status of the ALU, the RESET status and the bank select bits for data memory.
The STATUS register can be the destination for any instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS register is the destination for an instruction that affects the Z, DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is disabled. These bits are set or cleared according to the device logic. Furthermore, the T
O and PD bits are not writable. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the STATUS register as destination may be different than intended.
For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper-three bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the ST ATUS register as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF, SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the STATUS register because these instructions do not affect the Z, C or DC bits from the STA TUS register . For other instructions, not affecting any status bits, see the "Instruction Set Summary."
Note 1: Bits IRP and RP1 (STATUS<7:6>) are not
used by the PIC12C67X and should be maintained clear. Use of these bits as general purpose R/W bits is NOT recom­mended, since this may affect upward compatibility with future products.
Note 2: The C and DC bits operate as a borro
w and digit borrow bit, respectively, in sub­traction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF instructions for examples.

4.3 PCL and PCLATH
The program counter (PC) is 13-bits wide. The lo w byte comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and writable register. The high byte (PC<12:8>) is not directly readable or writable and comes from PCLATH. On any reset, the PC is cleared. Figure 4-10 shows the two situations for the loading of the PC. The upper example in the figure shows how the PC is loaded on a write to PCL (PCLA TH<4:0> PCH). The lower exam­ple in the figure shows how the PC is loaded during a CALL or GOTO instruction (PCLATH<4:3> PCH).
FIGURE 4-10: LOADING OF PC IN
DIFFERENT SITUATIONS
4.3.1 COMPUTED GOTO A computed GOTO is accomplished by adding an off-
set to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When doing a table read using a computed GOTO method, care should be exercised if the tab le location crosses a PCL memory boundary (each 256 byte block). Refer to the application note
“Implementing a Table Read"
(AN556).

4.3.2 STACK The PIC12C67X family has an 8 level deep x 13-bit
wide hardware stack. The stack space is not part of either program or data space and the stack pointer is not readable or writable. The PC is PUSHed onto the stack when a CALL instruction is executed or an inter­rupt causes a branch. The stack is POPed in the event of a RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction execution. PCLA TH is not affected by a PUSH or POP operation.
The stack operates as a circular buff er . This means that after the stack has been PUSHed eight times, the ninth push overwrites the value that was stored from the first push. The tenth push overwrites the second push (and so on).
4.4 Program Memory Paging
The PIC12C67X ignores both paging bits PCLATH<4:3>, which are used to access program memory when more than one page is available. The use of PCLATH<4:3> as general purpose read/write bits for the PIC12C67X is not recommended since this may affect upward compatibility with future products.
Note 1: There are no status bits to indicate stack
overflow or stack underflow conditions.
Note 2: There are no instructions/mnemonics
called PUSH or POP. These are actions that occur from the execution of the CALL, RETURN, RETLW, and RETFIE instruc­tions, or the vectoring to an interrupt address.

4.5 Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR Registers
The INDF register is not a physical register . Addressing the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF reg­ister. Any instruction using the INDF register actually accesses the register pointed to by the File Select Reg­ister, FSR. Reading the INDF register itself indirectly (FSR = '0') will read 00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly results in a no-operation (although status bits may be affected). An effective 9-bit address is obtained by concatenating the 8-bit FSR register and the IRP bit (STATUS<7>), as shown in Figure 4-11. However, IRP is not used in the PIC12C67X.
A simple program to clear RAM locations 20h-2Fh using indirect addressing is shown in Example 4-1.

5.0 I/O PORT
As with any other register, the I/O register can be written and read under program control. However, read instructions (e.g., MOVF GPIO,W) always read the I/O pins independent of the pin’s input/output modes. On RESET, all I/O por ts are defined as input (inputs are at hi-impedance) since the I/O control registers are all set.
5.1 GPIO
GPIO is an 8-bit I/O register. Only the low order 6 bits are used (GP5:GP0). Bits 7 and 6 are unimplemented and read as '0's. Please note that GP3 is an input only pin. The configuration word can set several I/O’s to alternate functions. When acting as alternate functions the pins will read as ‘0’ during por t read. Pins GP0, GP1, and GP3 can be configured with weak pull-ups and also with interrupt on change. The interrupt on change and weak pull-up functions are not pin selectable. If pin 4 is configured as MCLR
, the weak pull-up is always on. Interrupt on change for this pin is not set and GP3 will read as '0'. Interrupt on change is enabled by setting INTCON<3>. Note that external oscillator use overrides the GPIO functions on GP4 and GP5.
5.2 TRIS Register
This register controls the data direction for GPIO. A '1' from a TRIS register bit puts the corresponding output driver in a hi-impedance mode. A '0' puts the contents of the output data latch on the selected pins, enabling the output buffer. The exceptions are GP3 which is input only and its TRIS bit will always read as '1'.
Upon reset, the TRIS register is all '1's, making all pins inputs.
Note: A read of the por ts reads the pins, not the
output data latches. That is, if an output driver on a pin is enabled and driven high, but the external system is holding it low, a read of the port will indicate that the pin is low.
5.3 I/O Interfacing
The equivalent circuit for an I/O port pin is shown in Figure 5-2. All port pins, except GP3 which is input only, may be used for both input and output operations. For input operations these por ts are non­latching. Any input must be present until read by an input instruction (e.g., MOVF GPIO,W). The outputs are latched and remain unchanged until the output latch is rewritten. To use a port pin as output, the corresponding direction control bit in TRIS must be cleared (= 0). For use as an input, the corresponding TRIS bit must be set. Any I/O pin (except GP3) can be programmed individually as input or output.
FIGURE 5-1: EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT
FOR A SINGLE I/O PIN
Note: On a Power-on Reset, GP0, GP1, GP2,
GP4 are configured as analog inputs and read as '0'.

5.4 I/O Programming Considerations
5.4.1 BI-DIRECTIONAL I/O PORTS Any instruction which writes, operates internally as a
read followed by a write operation. The BCF and BSF instructions, for example, read the register into the CPU, ex ecute the bit operation and write the result back to the register. Caution must be used when these instructions are applied to a port with both inputs and outputs defined. For example, a BSF operation on bit5 of GPIO will cause all eight bits of GPIO to be read into the CPU. Then the BSF operation takes place on bit5 and GPIO is written to the output latches. If another bit of GPIO is used as a bi-directional I/O pin (e.g., bit0) and it is defined as an input at this time, the input signal present on the pin itself would be read into the CPU and rewritten to the data latch of this particular pin, overwriting the previous content. As long as the pin stays in the input mode, no problem occurs. However, if bit0 is switched to an output, the content of the data latch may now be unknown.
Reading the port register, reads the values of the port pins. Writing to the port register writes the value to the port latch. When using read-modify-write instructions (ex. BCF, BSF , etc.) on a port, the value of the port pins is read, the desired operation is done to this value, and this value is then written to the port latch.
Example 5-1 shows the effect of two sequential read­modify-write instructions on an I/O port.
EXAMPLE 5-1: READ-MODIFY-WRITE

A pin actively outputting a Low or High should not be driven from external devices at the same time in order to change the level on this pin (“wired-or”, “wired-and”). The resulting high output currents may damage the chip.

6.0 TIMER0 MODULE
The Timer0 module timer/counter has the following f ea­tures:
• 8-bit timer/counter
• Readable and writable
• 8-bit software programmable prescaler
• Internal or external clock select
• Interrupt on overflow from FFh to 00h
• Edge select for external clock Figure 6-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer0
module. Timer mode is selected by clearing bit T0CS
(OPTION<5>). In timer mode, the Timer0 module will increment every instruction cycle (without prescaler). If the TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited for the following two instruction cycles (Figure 6-2 and Figure 6-3). The user can work around this by writing an adjusted value to the TMR0 register.
Counter mode is selected by setting bit T0CS (OPTION<5>). In counter mode, Timer0 will increment either on every rising or falling edge of pin RA4/T0CKI. The incrementing edge is determined by the Timer0 Source Edge Select bit T0SE (OPTION<4>). Clear ing
bit T0SE selects the r ising edge. Restrictions on the external clock input are discussed in detail in Section 6.2.
The prescaler is mutually exclusively shared between the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. The pres­caler assignment is controlled in software by control bit PSA (OPTION<3>). Clearing bit PSA will assign the prescaler to the Timer0 module. The prescaler is not readable or writable. When the prescaler is assigned to the Timer0 module, prescale values of 1:2, 1:4, ..., 1:256 are selectable. Section 6.3 details the operation of the prescaler.
6.1 Timer0 Interrupt
The TMR0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0 reg­ister overflows from FFh to 00h. This overflow sets bit T0IF (INTCON<2>). The interr upt can be masked by clearing bit T0IE (INTCON<5>). Bit T0IF must be cleared in software by the Timer0 module interrupt ser­vice routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The TMR0 interrupt cannot awaken the processor from SLEEP since the timer is shut off during SLEEP. See Figure 6­4 for Timer0 interrupt timing.

6.2 Using Timer0 with an External Clock
When an external clock input is used for Timer0, it must meet certain requirements. The requirements ensure the external clock can be synchronized with the internal phase clock (T
OSC). Also, there is a delay in the actual
incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization.
6.2.1 EXTERNAL CLOCK SYNCHRONIZATION When no prescaler is used, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization of T0CKI with the internal phase clocks is accom­plished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks (Figure 6-5). Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to be high for at least 2Tosc (and a small RC delay of 20 ns) and low for at least 2Tosc (and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer to the electrical specification of the desired device.
When a prescaler is used, the external clock input is divided by the asynchronous ripple-counter type pres-
caler so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. For the external clock to meet the sampling requirement, the ripple-counter must be taken into account. There­fore, it is necessary for T0CKI to have a period of at least 4Tosc (and a small RC delay of 40 ns) divided by the prescaler value. The only requirement on T0CKI high and low time is that they do not violate the mini­mum pulse width requirement of 10 ns. Refer to par am­eters 40, 41 and 42 in the electrical specification of the desired device.
6.2.2 TMR0 INCREMENT DELAY Since the prescaler output is synchronized with the
internal clocks, there is a small delay from the time the external clock edge occurs to the time the Timer0 mod­ule is actually incremented. Figure 6-5 shows the delay from the external clock edge to the timer incrementing.

Note 1: Delay from clock input change to Timer0 increment is 3Tosc to 7Tosc. (Duration of Q = Tosc).
Therefore, the error in measuring the interval between two edges on Timer0 input = ±4Tosc max. 2: External clock if no prescaler selected, Prescaler output otherwise. 3: The arrows indicate the points in time where sampling occurs.

6.3 Prescaler
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog Timer, respectively (Figure 6-6). For simplicity, this counter is being referred to as “prescaler” throughout this data sheet. Note that there is only one prescaler available which is m utually e xclusiv ely shared between the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. Thus, a prescaler assignment for the Timer0 module means that there is no prescaler for the Watchdog Timer, and vice-versa.
The PSA and PS2:PS0 bits (OPTION<3:0>) determine the prescaler assignment and prescale ratio.
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions writing to the TMR0 register (e.g. CLRF 1, MOVWF 1,
BSF 1,x....etc.) will clear the prescaler. When assigned
to WDT , a CLRWDT instruction will clear the prescaler along with the Watchdog Timer. The prescaler is not readable or writable.
