PIC16C55X(A)
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PIC16C55X(A) are 18 and 20-Pin EPROM-based
members of the versatile PIC16CXX family of low-cost,
high-performance, CMOS, fully-static, 8-bit
microcontrollers.
All PICmicro™ microcontrollers employ an advanced
RISC architecture. The PIC16C55X(A) have enhanced
core features, eight-lev el 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.
PIC16C55X(A) microcontrollers typically achieve a 2:1
code compression and a 4:1 speed improvement over
other 8-bit microcontrollers in their class.
The PIC16C554(A) and PIC16C556A have 80 bytes of
RAM. The PIC16C558(A) has 128 bytes of RAM. Each
device has 13 I/O pins and an 8-bit timer/counter with
an 8-bit programmable prescaler.
PIC16C55X(A) devices hav e special features to reduce
external components, thus reducing cost, enhancing
system reliability and reducing power consumption.
There are four oscillator options, of which the single pin
RC oscillator provides a low-cost solution, the LP
oscillator minimizes power consumption, XT is a
standard crystal, and the HS is for High Speed crystals.
The SLEEP (power-down) mode offers power saving.
The user can wake up the chip from SLEEP through
several external and internal interrupts and reset.
A highly reliable Watchdog Timer with its own on-chip
RC oscillator provides protection against software
lock- up.
A UV-erasable CERDIP-packaged version is ideal for
code development while the cost-effective One-Time
Programmable (OTP) version is suitable for production
in any volume.
Table 1-1 shows the features of the PIC16C55X(A)
mid-range microcontroller families.
A simplified block diagram of the PIC16C55X(A) is
shown in Figure 3-1.
The PIC16C55X(A) series fit perfectly in applications
ranging from motor control to low-power remote sensors. The EPROM technology makes customization of
application programs (detection levels, pulse generation, timers, 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-performance, ease of use
and I/O flexibility make the PIC16C55X(A) very versatile.
1.1 F
amily and Upward Compatibility
Those users familiar with the PIC16C5X family of
microcontrollers will realize that this is an enhanced
version of the PIC16C5X architecture. Please refer to
Appendix A for a detailed list of enhancements. Code
written for PIC16C5X can be easily ported to
PIC16C55X(A) family of devices (Appendix B).
The PIC16C55X(A) f amily fills the niche for users w anting to migrate up from the PIC16C5X family and not
needing various peripheral features of other members
of the PIC16XX mid-range microcontroller family.
1.2 De
velopment Support
The PIC16C55X(A) family is suppor ted by a full-featured macro assembler, a software simulator, an in-circuit emulator, a low-cost de v elopment programmer and

PIC16C55X(A)
3.0 ARCHITECTURAL OVERVIEW
The high performance of the PIC16C55X(A) family can
be attributed to a number of architectural features
commonly found in RISC microprocessors. To begin
with, the PIC16C55X(A) uses a Harvard architecture,
in which, program and data are accessed from separate memories using separate busses. This improves
bandwidth over traditional von Neumann architecture
where program and data are fetched from the same
memory. Separating program and data memory further
allows instructions to be sized differently than 8-bit
wide data words. Instruction opcodes are 14-bits 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 two-stage pipeline
overlaps fetch and execution of instructions.
Consequently, all instructions (35) execute in a single-cycle (200 ns @ 20 MHz) except for program
branches.
The PIC16C554(A) addresses 512 x 14 on-chip program memory. The PIC16C556A addresses 1K x 14
program memory. The PIC16C558(A) addresses 2K x
14 program memory. All program memory is internal.
The PIC16C55X(A) can directly or indirectly address its
register files or data memory. All special function
registers including the program counter are mapped
into the data memory. The PIC16C55X(A) have 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 PIC16C55X(A) simple yet efficient. In
addition, the learning curve is reduced significantly.
The PIC16C55X(A) devices contain an 8-bit ALU and
working register. The ALU is a general purpose
arithmetic unit. It performs arithmetic and Boolean
functions between 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 for ALU
operations. It is not an addressable register.
Depending on the instruction executed, the ALU may
affect the values of the Carry (C), Digit Carry (DC), and
Zero (Z) bits in the STATUS register. The C and DC bits
operate as a Bo
rrow and Digit Borrow out bit,
respectively, in subtraction. See the
SUBLW
and
SUBWF
instructions for examples.
A simplified block diagram is shown in Figure 3-1, with
a description of the device pins in Table 3-1.

3.1 Cloc
king Scheme/Instruction Cycle
The clock input (OSC1/CLKIN pin) is internally divided
by four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature
clocks namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the
program counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, the
instruction is fetched from the program memory and
latched into the instruction register in Q4. The
instruction is decoded and executed during the
following Q1 through Q4. The clocks and instruction
execution flow are shown in Figure 3-2.
3.2 Instruction Flo
w/Pipelining
An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1,
Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instruction fetch and execute are
pipelined such that fetch takes one instruction cycle
while decode and execute 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 f etched 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).

All instructions are single cycle, except for any program branches. These take two cycles since the fetch

4.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION
4.1 Pr
ogram Memory Organization
The PIC16C55X(A) has a 13-bit prog ram counter capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory space.
Only the first 512 x 14 (0000h - 01FFh) for the
PIC16C554(A), 1K x 14 (0000h - 03FFh) for the
PIC16C556A and 2K x 14 (0000h - 07FFh) for the
PIC16C558(A) are physically implemented. Accessing
a location above these boundaries will cause a
wrap-around within the first 512 x 14 space
PIC16C554(A) or 1K x 14 space PIC16C556A or 2K x
14 space PIC16C558(A). The reset vector is at 0000h
and the interrupt vector is at 0004h (Figure 4-1,

4.2 Data Memor
y Organization
The data memory (Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5) is
partitioned into two Banks which contain the general
purpose registers and the special function registers.
Bank 0 is selected when the RP0 bit is cleared. Bank 1
is selected when the RP0 bit (STATUS <5>) is set. The
Special Function Registers are located in the first 32
locations of each Bank. Register locations 20-6Fh
(Bank0) on the PIC16C554(A)/556A and 20-7Fh
(Bank0) and A0-BFh (Bank1) on the PIC16C558(A) are
general purpose registers implemented as static RAM.
Some special purpose registers are mapped in Bank 1.
4.2.1 GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE
The register file is organized as 80 x 8 in the
PIC16C554(A)/556A and 128 x 8 in the PIC16C558(A).
Each is accessed either directly or indirectly through
the File Select Register, FSR (Section 4.4).

4.2.2 SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS
The special function registers are registers used by the
CPU and Peripheral functions for controlling the
desired operation of the device (Table 4-1). These
registers are static RAM.
The special function registers can be classified into two
sets (core and peripheral). The special function registers associated with the “core” functions are described
in this section. Those related to the operation of the
peripheral features are described in the section of that
peripheral feature.

PIC16C55X(A)
4.2.2.1 STATUS REGISTER
The STATUS register, shown in Figure 4-6, 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, like 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 the destination may be different
than intended.
For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper-three
bits and set the Z bit. This lea ves the status register as
000uu1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,
SWAPF and MOVWF instructions be used to alter the ST ATUS register because these instructions do not affect
any status bits. For other instructions, not affecting any
status bits, see the “Instruction Set Summary”.
Note 1: The IRP and RP1 bits (STATUS<7:6>)
are not used by the PIC16C55X(A) and
should be programmed as ’0'. 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 out 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 low byte
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and
writable register. The high bits (PC<12:8>) are not directly
readable or writable and come 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
(PCLATH<4:0> → PCH). The lo wer 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
offset 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 PIC16C55X(A) family has an 8 level deep x 13-bit
wide hardware stack (Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2 and
Figure 4-3). 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.
PCLATH 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).
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 vectoring to an interrupt
address.

4.4 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 data pointed to by the file select register
(FSR). Reading INDF itself indirectly will produce 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
PIC16C55X(A).
A simple program to clear RAM locations 20h-2Fh
using indirect addressing is shown in Example 4-1.

5.0 I/O PORTS
The PIC16C55X(A) ha ve two ports, PORT A and POR TB.
5.1 PORT A and TRISA Registers
PORTA is a 5-bit wide latch. RA4 is a Schmitt Trigger input
and an open drain output. Port RA4 is multiple xed with the
T0CKI clock input. All other RA port pins have Schmitt
Trigger input levels and full CMOS output driv ers . All pins
have data direction bits (TRIS registers) which can configure these pins as input or output.
A '1' in the TRISA register puts the corresponding output
driver in a hi- impedance mode. A '0' in the TRISA register
puts the contents of the output latch on the selected pin(s).
Reading the PORTA register reads the status of the pins,
whereas writing to it will write to the port latch. All write
operations are read-modify-write operations. So a write
to a port implies that the port pins are first read, then this
value is modified and written to the port data latch.

PIC16C55X(A)
5.2 PORTB and TRISB Registers
PORTB is an 8-bit wide bi-directional port. The
corresponding data direction register is TRISB. A '1' in
the TRISB register puts the corresponding output driver
in a high impedance mode. A '0' in the TRISB register
puts the contents of the output latch on the selected
pin(s).
Reading PORTB register reads the status of the pins,
whereas writing to it will write to the port latch. All write
operations are read-modify-write operations. So a write
to a port implies that the por t pins are first read, then
this value is modified and written to the port data latch.
Each of the PORTB pins has a weak internal pull-up
(≈200 µA typical). A single control bit can turn on all the
pull-ups. This is done by clearing the RBPU
(OPTION<7>) bit. The weak pull-up is automatically
turned off when the port pin is configured as an output.
The pull-ups are disabled on Power-on Reset.
Four of PORTB’s pins, RB7:RB4, have an interrupt on
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 interrupt
on 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 OR’ed together to generate the RBIF interrupt (flag
latched in INTCON<0>).

RB7:RB6 in serial programming mode
This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The
user, in the interrupt service routine, can clear the
interrupt in the following manner:
a) Any read or write of PORTB. This will end the
mismatch condition.
b) Clear flag bit RBIF.
A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit RBIF.
Reading PORTB will end the mismatch condition, and
allow flag bit RBIF to be cleared.
This interrupt on mismatch feature, together with
software configurable pull-ups on these four pins allow
easy interface to a key pad and make it possible for
wake-up on key-depression. (See AN552 in the
Microchip
Embedded Control Handbook
.)
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.

read operation is being executed (start of the Q2
cycle), then the RBIF interrupt flag may not

5.3 I/O Programming Considerations
5.3.1 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 PORTB will cause all eight bits of PORTB to be read
into the CPU. Then the BSF operation takes place on
bit5 and PORTB is written to the output latches. If
another bit of PORTB is used as a bidirectional 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 re-written 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 into output mode later on,
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
read-modify-write instructions (ex., BCF, BSF, etc.) on
an I/O port.
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.
EXAMPLE 5-1: READ-MODIFY-WRITE
INSTRUCTIONS ON AN
I/O PORT
5.3.2 SUCCESSIVE OPERATIONS ON I/O PORTS
The actual write to an I/O port happens at the end of an
instruction cycle, whereas for reading, the data must be
valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle
(Figure 5-5). Therefore, care must be exercised if a
write followed by a read operation is carried out on the
same I/O port. The sequence of instructions should be
such to allow the pin voltage to stabilize (load
dependent) before the next instruction which causes
that file to be read into the CPU is executed. Otherwise ,
the previous state of that pin may be read into the CPU
rather than the new state. When in doubt, it is better to
separate these instructions with an NOP or another
instruction not accessing this I/O port.

Note that:

Therefore, at higher clock frequencies,
a write followed by a read may be
problematic.

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

6.2 Using Timer0 with External Clock
When an external clock input is used for Timer0, it must
meet certain requirements. The external clock
requirement is due to internal phase clock (T
OSC)
synchronization. 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 2T
OSC (and a small RC delay of 20 ns)
and low for at least 2T
OSC (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
prescaler 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 4T
OSC (and a small RC delay of
40 ns) divided by the prescaler value. The only
requirement on T0CKI high and low time is that the y do
not violate the minimum pulse width requirement of
10 ns. Refer to parameters 40, 41 and 42 in the
electrical specification of the desired device.
6.2.2 TIMER0 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 TMR0 is
actually incremented. Figure 6-5 shows the delay from
the external clock edge to the timer incrementing.

Therefore, the error in measuring the interval between two edges on Timer0 input = ±4Tosc max.

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 mutually exclusive 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.

6.3.1 SWITCHING PRESCALER ASSIGNMENT
The prescaler assignment is fully under software
control (i.e., it can be changed “on the fly” during
program execution). To avoid an unintended device
RESET, the following instruction sequence
(Example 6-1) must be executed when changing the
prescaler assignment from Timer0 to WDT. Lines 5-7
are required only if the desired postscaler rate is 1:1
(PS<2:0> = 000) or 1:2 (PS<2:0> = 001).

7.0 SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE
CPU
What sets a microcontroller apart from other
processors are special circuits to deal with the needs of
real time applications. The PIC16C55X(A) family has a
host of such features intended to maximize system
reliability, minimize cost through elimination of external
components, provide power saving operating modes
and offer code protection.
These are:
1. OSC selection
2. Reset
Power-on Reset (POR)
Power-up Timer (PWRT)
Oscillator Start-Up Timer (OST)
3. Interrupts
4. Watchdog Timer (WDT)
5. SLEEP
6. Code protection
7. ID Locations
8. In-circuit serial programming™
The PIC16C55X(A) has a Watchdog Timer which is
controlled by configuration bits. It runs off its own RC
oscillator for added reliability. There are two timers that
offer necessary delays on power-up. One is the
Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST), intended to keep the
chip in reset until the crystal oscillator is stable. The
other is the Pow er-up Timer (PWRT), which pro vides a
fixed delay of 72 ms (nominal) on power-up only,
designed to keep the part in reset while the power
supply stabilizes. With these two functions on-chip,
most applications need no external reset circuitry.
The SLEEP mode is designed to offer a very low
current power-down mode. The user can wak e-up from
SLEEP through external reset, Watchdog Timer
wake-up or through an interrupt. Several oscillator
options are also made available to allow the part to fit
the application. The RC oscillator option saves system
cost while the LP crystal option saves power. A set of
configuration bits are used to select various options.
PIC16C55X(A)
DS40143B-page 36 Preliminary 1997 Microchip Technology Inc.
7.1 Configuration Bits
The configuration bits can be programmed (read as '0')
or left unprogrammed (read as '1') to select various
device configurations. These bits are mapped in
program memory location 2007h.
The user will note that address 2007h is beyond
the user program memory space. In fact, it belongs
to the special test/configuration memory space
(2000h – 3FFFh), which can be accessed only during
programming.

7.2 Oscillator Configurations
7.2.1 OSCILLATOR TYPES
The PIC16C55X(A) can be operated in four different
oscillator options. The user can program two
configuration bits (FOSC1 and FOSC0) to select one of
these four modes:
• LP Low Power Crystal
• XT Crystal/Resonator
• HS High Speed Crystal/Resonator
• RC Resistor/Capacitor
7.2.2 CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR / CERAMIC
RESONATORS
In XT, LP or HS modes a crystal or ceramic resonator
is connected to the OSC1 and OSC2 pins to establish
oscillation (Figure 7-2). The PIC16C55X(A) oscillator
design requires the use of a parallel cut crystal. Use of
a series cut crystal may give a frequency out of the
crystal manufacturers specifications. When in XT, LP or
HS modes, the device can have an external clock
source to drive the OSC1 pin (Figure 7-3).

7.2.3 EXTERNAL CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
CIRCUIT
Either a pre-packaged oscillator can be used or a simple oscillator circuit with TTL gates can be built.
Prepackaged oscillators provide a wide operating
range and better stability. A well-designed crystal
oscillator will provide good performance with TTL
gates. Two types of crystal oscillator circuits can be
used; one with series resonance, or one with parallel
resonance.
Figure 7-4 shows implementation of a parallel resonant
oscillator circuit. The circuit is designed to use the
fundamental frequency of the crystal. The 74AS04
inverter performs the 180° phase shift that a parallel
oscillator requires. The 4.7 kΩ resistor provides the
negative feedback for stability. The 10 kΩ
potentiometers bias the 74AS04 in the linear region.
This could be used for external oscillator designs.
FIGURE 7-4: EXTERNAL PARALLEL
RESONANT CRYSTAL
OSCILLATOR CIRCUIT
Figure 7-5 shows a series resonant oscillator circuit.
This circuit is also designed to use the fundamental
frequency of the crystal. The inverter performs a 180°
phase shift in a series resonant oscillator circuit. The
330 Ω resistors provide the negative feedback to bias
the inverters in their linear region.

For timing insensitive applications the “RC” device

frequency is a function of the supply voltage, the
resistor (Rext) and capacitor (Cext) 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 Cext values. The user also needs to
take into account variation due to tolerance of external
R and C components used. Figure 7-6 shows how the
R/C combination is connected to the PIC16C55X. For
Rext values below 2.2 kΩ, the oscillator operation may
become unstable, or stop completely. For very high
Rext values (e.g., 1 MΩ), the oscillator becomes
sensitive to noise, humidity and leakage. Thus, we
recommend to keep Rext between 3 kΩ and 100 kΩ.
Although the oscillator will operate with no external
capacitor (Cext = 0 pF), we recommend using values
above 20 pF for noise and stability reasons. With no or
small external capacitance, the oscillation frequency
can vary dramatically due to changes in external
capacitances, such as PCB trace capacitance or
package lead frame capacitance.
The oscillator frequency, divided by 4, is available on
the OSC2/CLKOUT pin, and can be used for test
purposes or to synchronize other logic (Figure 3-2 for
waveform).

7.3 Reset
The PIC16C55X(A) differentiates between various
kinds of reset:
a) Power-on reset (POR)
b) MCLR
reset during normal operation
c) MCLR
reset during SLEEP
d) WDT reset (normal operation)
e) WDT wake-up (SLEEP)
Some registers are not affected in any reset condition;
their status is unknown on POR and unchanged in any
other reset. Most other registers are reset to a “reset
state” on Power-on reset, on MCLR
or WDT reset and
on MCLR
reset during SLEEP. They are not aff ected b y
a WDT wak e-up , since this is vie wed as the resumption
of normal operation. T
O and PD bits are set or cleared
differently in different reset situations as indicated in
Table 7-4. These bits are used in software to determine
the nature of the reset. See Table 7-6 for a full description of reset states of all registers.
A simplified block diagram of the on-chip reset circuit is
shown in Figure 7-7.
The MCLR
reset path has a noise filter to detect and
ignore small pulses. See Table 10-4 for pulse width
specification.

7.4 Power-on Reset (POR), Power-up
Timer (PWRT), Oscillator Start-up
Timer (OST)
7.4.1 POWER-ON RESET (POR)
A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when
V
DD rise is detected (in the range of 1.6 V – 1.8 V). To
take advantage of the POR, just tie the MCLR
pin
directly (or through a resistor) to V
DD. This will eliminate
external RC components usually needed to create
Power-on Reset. A maximum rise time for V
DD is
required. See Electrical Specifications for details.
The POR circuit does not produce internal reset when
V
DD declines.
When the device starts normal operation (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.
For additional information, refer to Application Note
AN607 “Power-up Trouble Shooting”.
7.4.2 POWER-UP TIMER (PWRT)
The Power-up Timer provides a fixed 72 ms (nominal)
time-out on power-up only, from POR. The Power-up
Timer operates on an internal RC oscillator. The chip is
kept in reset as long as PWRT is active. The PWRT
delay allows the V
DD to rise to an acceptable level. A
configuration bit, PW
RTE can disable (if set) or enable
(if cleared or programmed) the Power-up Timer. The
Power-Up Time delay will vary from chip to chip and
due to V
DD, temperature and process variation. See
DC parameters for details.
7.4.3 OSCILLATOR START-UP TIMER (OST)
The Oscillator Start-Up Timer (OST) provides a 1024
oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delay after the
PWRT delay is over. 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.
7.4.4 TIME-OUT SEQUENCE
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as f ollows: First
PWRT time-out is inv ok ed after POR has expired, then
OST is activated. The total time-out will vary based on
oscillator configuration and P
WRTE bit status. For
example, in RC mode with PW
RTE bit erased (PWRT
disabled), there will be no time-out at all. Figure 7-8,
Figure 7-9 and Figure 7-10 depict time-out sequences.
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, if MCLR
is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire . Then
bringing MCLR
high will begin execution immediately
(see Figure 7-9). This is useful for testing purposes or
to synchronize more than one PIC16C55X device operating in parallel.
Table 7-5 shows the reset conditions for some special
registers, while T ab le 7-6 shows the reset conditions for
all the registers.

7.4.5 POWER CONTROL/STATUS REGISTER
(PCON)
Bit1 is POR
(Power-on-reset). It is a ‘0’ on
power-on-reset and unaffected otherwise. The user
must write a ‘1’ to this bit following a power-on-reset.
On a subsequent reset if POR
is ‘0’, it will indicate that
a power-on-reset must have occurred (V
DD may have
gone too low).

7.5 Interrupts
The PIC16C55X(A) has 3 sources of interrupt:
• External interrupt RB0/INT
• TMR0 overflow interrupt
• PortB change interrupts (pins RB7:RB4)
The interrupt control register (INTCON) records
individual interrupt requests in flag bits. It also has
individual and global interrupt enable bits.
A global interrupt enable bit, GIE (INTCON<7>)
enables (if set) all un-masked interrupts or disables (if
cleared) all interrupts. Individual interrupts can be
disabled through their corresponding enable bits in
INTCON register. GIE is cleared on reset.
The “return from interrupt” instruction,
RETFIE, exits
the interrupt routine as well as sets the GIE bit, which
re-enables RB0/INT interrupts.
The INT pin interrupt, the RB port change interrupt and
the TMR0 overflow interrupt flags are contained in the
INTCON register.
When an interrupt is responded to, the GIE is cleared
to disable any further interrupt, the return address is
pushed into the stack and the PC is loaded with 0004h.
Once in the interrupt service routine the source(s) of
the interrupt can be determined by polling the interrupt
flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be cleared in software before re-enabling interrupts to avoid RB0/INT
recursive interrupts.
For external interrupt events, such as the INT pin or
PORTB change interrupt, the interrupt latency will be
three or four instruction cycles. The exact latency
depends when the interrupt event occurs (Figure 7-13).
The latency is the same for one or two cycle
instructions. Once in the interrupt service routine the
source(s) of the interrupt can be determined by polling
the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be
cleared in software before re-enabling interrupts to
avoid multiple interrupt requests. Individual interrupt
flag bits are set regardless of the status of their
corresponding mask bit or the GIE bit.
Note 1: Individual interrupt flag bits are set
regardless of the status of their
corresponding mask bit or the GIE bit.
2: When an instruction that clears the GIE
bit is executed, any interrupts that were
pending for execution in the next cycle
are ignored. The CPU will execute a
NOP in the cycle immediately following
the instruction which clears the GIE bit.
The interrupts which were ignored are
still pending to be serviced when the GIE
bit is set again.

7.5.1 RB0/INT INTERRUPT
An external interrupt on RB0/INT pin is edge triggered:
either rising if INTEDG bit (OPTION<6>) is set, or falling if INTEDG bit is clear. When a valid edge appears
on the RB0/INT pin, the INTF bit (INTCON<1>) is set.
This interrupt can be disabled by clearing the INTE
control bit (INTCON<4>). The INTF bit must be cleared
in software in the interrupt service routine before
re-enabling this interrupt. The RB0/INT interrupt can
wake-up the processor from SLEEP, if the INTE bit was
set prior to going into SLEEP. The status of the GIE bit
decides whether or not the processor branches to the
interrupt vector following wake-up. See Section 7.8 for
details on SLEEP and Figure 7-16 for timing of
wake-up from SLEEP through RB0/INT interrupt.
7.5.2 TMR0 INTERRUPT
An overflow (FFh → 00h) in the TMR0 register will
set the T0IF (INTCON<2>) bit. The interrupt can
be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing T0IE
(INTCON<5>) bit. For operation of the Timer0 module,
see Section 6.0.
7.5.3 PORTB INTERRUPT
An input change on PORTB <7:4> sets the RBIF
(INTCON<0>) bit. The interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the RBIE (INTCON<4>) bit.
For operation of PORTB (Section 5.2).
Note: If a change on the I/O pin should occur
when the read operation is being executed
(start of the Q2 cycle), then the RBIF interrupt flag may get set.

7.6 Context Saving During Interrupts
During an interrupt, only the return PC value is saved
on the stack. Typically, users may wish to sa ve key registers during an interrupt, e.g. W register and STATUS
register. This will have to be implemented in software.
Example 7-1 stores and restores the STATUS and W
registers. The user register, W_TEMP, must be defined
in both banks and must be defined at the same offset
from the bank base address (i.e., W_TEMP is defined
at 0x20 in Bank 0 and it must also be defined at 0xA0
in Bank 1). The user register, STATUS_TEMP, must be
defined in Bank 0. The Example 7-1:
• Stores the W register
• Stores the STATUS register in Bank 0
• Executes the ISR code
• Restores the STATUS (and bank select bit
register)
• Restores the W register
EXAMPLE 7-1: SAVING THE STATUS AND
W REGISTERS IN RAM
MOVWF W_TEMP ;copy W to temp register,
;could be in either bank

7.7 Watchdog Timer (WDT)
The watchdog timer is a free running on-chip RC oscillator which does not require any external components.
This RC oscillator is separate from the RC oscillator of
the CLKIN pin. That means that the WDT will run, even
if the clock on the OSC1 and OSC2 pins of the device
has been stopped, for example, by execution of a
SLEEP instruction. During normal operation, a WDT
time-out generates a device RESET. If the device is in
SLEEP mode, a WDT time-out causes the device to
wake-up and continue with normal operation. The WDT
can be permanently disabled by programming the configuration bit WDTE as clear (Section 7.1).
7.7.1 WDT PERIOD
The WDT has a nominal time-out period of 18 ms, (with
no prescaler). The time-out periods vary with temperature, V
DD
and process variations from part to part (see
DC specs). If longer time-out periods are desired, a
prescaler with a division ratio of up to 1:128 can be
assigned to the WDT under software control by writing
to the OPTION register. Thus, time-out periods up to
2.3 seconds can be realized.
The
CLRWDT and SLEEP instructions clear the WDT
and the postscaler, if assigned to the WDT, and prevent
it from timing out and generating a device RESET.
The T
O bit in the STATUS register will be cleared upon
a Watchdog Timer time-out.
7.7.2 WDT PROGRAMMING CONSIDERATIONS
It should also be taken in account that under worst case
conditions (V
DD = Min., Temperature = Max., max.
WDT prescaler) it may take several seconds before a
WDT time-out occurs.

7.8 Power-Down Mode (SLEEP)
The Power-down mode is entered by executing a
SLEEP instruction.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but
keeps running, the PD
bit in the STATUS register is
cleared, the T
O bit is set, and the oscillator driver is
turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had,
before
SLEEP was executed (driving high, low, or
hi-impedance).
For lowest current consumption in this mode, all I/O
pins should be either at V
DD, or VSS, with no external
circuitry drawing current from the I/O pin. I/O pins that
are hi-impedance inputs should be pulled high or low
externally to avoid switching currents caused by floating inputs. The T0CKI input should also be at V
DD or
V
SS for lowest current consumption. The contribution
from on chip pull-ups on PORTB should be considered.
The MCLR
pin must be at a logic high level (VIHMC).
7.8.1 WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP
The device can wake-up from SLEEP through one of
the following events:
1. External reset input on MCLR
pin
2. Watchdog Timer Wake-up (if WDT was enabled)
3. Interrupt from RB0/INT pin or RB Port change
The first event will cause a device reset. The two latter
events are considered a continuation of program execution. The T
O and PD bits in the STATUS register can
be used to determine the cause of device reset. PD
bit, which is set on power-up is cleared when SLEEP is
invoked. T
O bit is cleared if WDT Wake-up occurred.
When the
SLEEP instruction is being executed, the
next instruction (PC + 1) is pre-fetched. For the device
to wake-up through an interrupt event, the corresponding interrupt enable bit must be set (enabled). Wak e-up
is regardless of the state of the GIE bit. If the GIE bit is
clear (disabled), the device continues execution at the
instruction after the
SLEEP instruction. If the GIE bit is
set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after
the
SLEEP instruction and then branches to the inter-
rupt address (0004h). In cases where the execution of
the instruction following
SLEEP is not desirable, the
user should have an
NOP after the SLEEP instruction.
The WDT is cleared when the device wakes-up from
sleep, regardless of the source of wake-up.
Note: It should be noted that a RESET generated
by a WDT time-out does not drive MCLR
pin low.
Note: If the global interrupts are disabled (GIE is
cleared), but any interrupt source has both
its interrupt enable bit and the corresponding interrupt flag bits set, the device will
immediately wakeup from sleep. The sleep
instruction is completely executed.

7.9 Code Protection
If the code protection bit(s) have not been
programmed, the on-chip program memory can be
read out for verification purposes.
7.10 ID Locations
Four memory locations (2000h-2003h) are designated
as ID locations where the user can store checksum or
other code-identification numbers. These locations are
not accessible during normal execution but are
readable and writable during program/verify. Only the
least significant 4 bits of the ID locations are used.
Note: Microchip does not recommend code
protecting windowed devices.
7.11 In-Circuit Serial Programming™
The PIC16C55X(A) microcontrollers can be serially
programmed while in the end application circuit. This is
simply done with two lines for clock and data, and three
other lines for power, ground, and the programming
voltage. This allows customers to manufacture boards
with unprogrammed devices, and then program the
microcontroller just before shipping the product. This
also allows the most recent firmware or a custom
firmware to be programmed.
The device is placed into a program/verify mode by
holding the RB6 and RB7 pins low while raising the
MCLR
(VPP) pin from VIL to VIHH (see programming
specification). RB6 becomes the programming clock
and RB7 becomes the programming data. Both RB6
and RB7 are Schmitt Trigger inputs in this mode.
After reset, to place the device into programming/verify
mode, the program counter (PC) is at location 00h. A
6-bit command is then supplied to the device.
Depending on the command, 14-bits of program data
are then supplied to or from the device, depending if the
command was a load or a read. F or complete details of
serial programming, please refer to the PIC16C6X/7X
Programming Specifications (Literature #DS30228).
A typical in-circuit serial programming connection is

8.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY
Each PIC16C55X(A) instruction is a 14-bit word
divided into an OPCODE which specifies the instruction type and one or more operands which further specify the operation of the instruction. The PIC16C55X(A)
instruction set summary in Table 8-2 lists byte-ori-
ented, bit-oriented, and literal and control opera-
tions. Table 8-1 shows the opcode field descriptions.
For byte-oriented instructions, 'f' represents a file
register designator and 'd' represents a destination
designator. The file register designator specifies which
file register is to be used by the instruction.
The destination designator specifies where the result of
the operation is to be placed. If 'd' is zero, the result is
placed in the W register . If 'd' is one , the result is placed
in the file register specified in the instruction.
For bit-oriented instructions, 'b' represents a bit field
designator which selects the number of the bit affected
by the operation, while 'f' represents the number of the
file in which the bit is located.
For literal and control operations, 'k' represents an
eight or eleven bit constant or literal value.

The instruction set is highly orthogonal and is grouped
into three basic categories:
• Byte-oriented operations
• Bit-oriented operations
• Literal and control operations
All instructions are executed within one single
instruction cycle, unless a conditional test is true or the
program counter is changed as a result of an
instruction. In this case, the execution takes two
instruction cycles with the second cycle executed as a
NOP. One instruction cycle consists of four oscillator
periods. Thus, for an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, the
normal instruction execution time is 1 µs. If a
conditional test is true or the program counter is
changed as a result of an instruction, the instruction
execution time is 2 µs.
Table 8-1 lists the instructions recognized by the
MPASM assembler.
Figure 8-1 shows the three general formats that the
instructions can have.
All examples use the following format to represent a
hexadecimal number:
0xhh
where h signifies a hexadecimal digit.

Note 1: When an I/O register is modified as a function of itself ( e.g., MOVF PORTB, 1), the value used will be that value present
on the pins themselves. For example, if the data latch is '1' for a pin configured as input and is driven low by an external
device, the data will be written back with a '0'.
2: If this instruction is ex ecuted on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be cleared if assigned
to the Timer0 Module.
3: If Program Counter (PC) is modified or a conditional test is true, the instruction requires two cycles. The second cycle is
executed as a NOP.

PIC16C55X(A)
APPENDIX A: ENHANCEMENTS
The following are the list of enhancements over the
PIC16C5X microcontroller family:
1. Instruction word length is increased to 14 bits.
This allows larger page sizes both in program
memory (4K now as opposed to 512 before) and
register file (up to 128 bytes now versus 32
bytes before).
2. A PC high latch register (PCLATH) is added to
handle program memory paging. PA2, PA1, PA0
bits are removed from STATUS register.
3. Data memory paging is slightly redefined.
STATUS register is modified.
4. Four new instructions have been added:
RETURN, RETFIE, ADDLW, and SUBLW.
Two instructions
TRIS and OPTION are being
phased out although they are kept for
compatibility with PIC16C5X.
5. OPTION and TRIS registers are made
addressable.
6. Interrupt capability is added. Interrupt vector is
at 0004h.
7. Stack size is increased to 8 deep.
8. Reset vector is changed to 0000h.
9. Reset of all registers is revised. Three different
reset (and wake-up) types are recognized.
Registers are reset differently.
10. Wake up from SLEEP through interrupt is
added.
11. Two separate timers, Oscillator Start-up Timer
(OST) and Power-up Timer (PWRT) are
included for more reliable power-up. These
timers are invoked selectively to avoid
unnecessary delays on power-up and wake-up.
12. PORTB has weak pull-ups and interrupt on
change feature.
13. Timer0 clock input, T0CKI pin is also a port pin
(RA4/T0CKI) and has a TRIS bit.
14. FSR is made a full 8-bit register.
15. “In-circuit programming” is made possible. The
user can program PIC16C55X devices using
only five pins: V
DD, VSS, VPP, RB6 (clock) and
RB7 (data in/out).
16. PCON status register is added with a
Power-on-Reset (POR
) status bit.
17. Code protection scheme is enhanced such that
portions of the program memory can be
protected, while the remainder is unprotected.
18. PORTA inputs are now Schmitt Trigger inputs.
APPENDIX B: COMPATIBILITY
To convert code written for PIC16C5X to
PIC16C55X(A), the user should take the following
steps:
1. Remove any program memory page select
operations (PA2, PA1, PA0 bits) for
CALL, GOTO.
2. Revisit any computed jump operations (write to
PC or add to PC, etc.) to make sure page bits
are set properly under the new scheme.
3. Eliminate any data memory page switching.
Redefine data variables to reallocate them.
4. Verify all writes to STATUS, OPTION, and FSR
registers since these have changed.
5. Change reset vector to 0000h.

ON-LINE SUPPORT
Microchip provides two methods of on-line support.
These are the Microchip BBS and the Microchip World
Wide Web (WWW) site.
Use Microchip's Bulletin Board Service (BBS) to get
current information and help about Microchip products.
Microchip provides the BBS communication channel
for you to use in extending your technical staff with
microcontroller and memory experts.
To provide you with the most responsive service possible,
the Microchip systems team monitors the BBS, posts
the latest component data and software tool updates,
provides technical help and embedded systems
insights, and discusses how Microchip products provide project solutions.
The web site, like the BBS, is used by Microchip as a
means to make files and information easily availab le to
customers. To view the site , the user must ha v e access
to the Internet and a web browser, such as Netscape or
Microsoft Explorer. Files are also available for FTP
download from our FTP site.
Connecting to the Microchip Internet Web Site
The Microchip web site is available by using your
favorite Internet browser to attach to:
www.microchip.com
The file transfer site is available by using an FTP service to connect to:
ftp.mchip.com/biz/mchip
The web site and file transfer site provide a v ariety of
services. Users may download files for the latest
Development Tools, Data Sheets, Application Notes,
User's Guides, Articles and Sample Programs. A variety of Microchip specific business information is also
available, including listings of Microchip sales offices,
distributors and factory representatives. Other data
available for consideration is:
• Latest Microchip Press Releases
• Technical Support Section with Frequently Asked
Questions
• Design Tips
• Device Errata
• Job Postings
• Microchip Consultant Program Member Listing
• Links to other useful web sites related to
Microchip Products
Connecting to the Microchip BBS
Connect worldwide to the Microchip BBS using either
the Internet or the CompuServe
communications net-
work.
Internet:
You can telnet or ftp to the Microchip BBS at the
address:
mchipbbs.microchip.com
CompuServe Communications Network:
When using the BBS via the Compuserve Network,
in most cases, a local call is your only expense . The
Microchip BBS connection does not use CompuServe
membership services, therefore you do not need
CompuServe membership to join Microchip's BBS.
There is no charge for connecting to the Microchip BBS.
The procedure to connect will vary slightly from country
to country. Please check with your local CompuServe
agent for details if you have a problem. CompuServe
service allow multiple users various baud rates
depending on the local point of access.
The following connect procedure applies in most locations.
1. Set your modem to 8-bit, No parity, and One stop
(8N1). This is not the normal CompuServe setting
which is 7E1.
2. Dial your local CompuServe access number.
3. Depress the <Enter> key and a garbage string will
appear because CompuServe is expecting a 7E1
setting.
4. Type +, depress the <Enter> key and “Host Name:”
will appear.
5. Type MCHIPBBS, depress the <Enter> key and you
will be connected to the Microchip BBS.
In the United States, to find the CompuServe phone
number closest to you, set your modem to 7E1 and dial
(800) 848-4480 for 300-2400 baud or (800) 331-7166
for 9600-14400 baud connection. After the system
responds with “Host Name:”, type NETWORK, depress
the <Enter> key and follow CompuServe's directions.
For voice information (or calling from overseas), you
may call (614) 723-1550 for your local CompuServe
number.
Microchip regularly uses the Microchip BBS to distribute
technical information, application notes, source code,
errata sheets, bug reports, and interim patches for
Microchip systems software products. For each SIG, a
moderator monitors, scans, and approves or disapproves files submitted to the SIG. No executable files
are accepted from the user community in general to
limit the spread of computer viruses.
