PIC16C5X

1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The PIC16C5X from Microchip Technology is a family

of low-cost, high performance, 8-bit, fully static,

EPROM/ ROM-based CMOS microcontrollers. It

employs a RISC architecture with only 33 single

word/single cycle instructions. All instructions are sin-

gle cycle (200 ns) except for program branches which

take two cycles. The PIC16C5X delivers perfor mance

an order of magnitude higher than its competitors in the

same price category. The 12-bit wide instructions are

highly symmetrical resulting in 2:1 code compression

over other 8-bit microcontrollers in its class. The easy

to use and easy to remember instruction set reduces

development time signiﬁcantly.

The PIC16C5X products are equipped with special fea-

tures that reduce system cost and power requirements .

The Power-On Reset (POR) and Device Reset Timer

(DRT) eliminate the need for external reset circuitry.

There are four oscillator conﬁgur ations to choose from,

including the power-saving LP (Low Power) oscillator

and cost saving RC oscillator. Power saving SLEEP

mode, Watchdog Timer and code protection features

improve system cost, power and reliability.

The UV erasable CERDIP pac kaged v ersions are ideal

for code development, while the cost-effective One

Time Programmable (OTP) versions are 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 PIC16C5X products are supported by a

full-featured macro assemb ler , a softw are simulator , an

in-circuit emulator, a ‘C’ compiler, fuzzy logic support

tools, a low-cost development programmer, and a full

featured programmer. All the tools are supported on

IBM



PC and compatible machines.

1.1 Applications

The PIC16C5X series ﬁts perfectly in applications rang-

ing from high-speed automotive and appliance motor

control to low-power remote transmitters/receivers,

pointing devices and telecom processors . The EPR OM

technology makes customizing application programs

(transmitter codes, motor speeds, receiver frequen-

cies, etc.) extremely fast and convenient. The small

footprint packages, for through hole or surface mount-

ing, make this microcontroller series perf ect for applica-

tions with space limitations. Low-cost, low-power, high

performance, ease of use and I/O ﬂexibility make the

PIC16C5X series very versatile e ven in areas where no

microcontroller use has been considered before (e.g.,

timer functions, replacement of “glue” logic in larger

systems, coprocessor applications).

2.0 PIC16C5X 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 this section. When

placing orders, please use the PIC16C5X Product

Identiﬁcation System at the back of this data sheet to

specify the correct part number.

For the PIC16C5X family of devices, there are four

device types, as indicated in the device number:

, as in PIC16C54. These devices have

EPROM program memory and operate over the

standard voltage range.

, as in PIC16LC54A. These devices have

EPROM program memory and operate over an

extended voltage range.

, as in PIC16LV54A. These devices have

EPROM program memory and operate over a

2.0V to 3.8V range.

2.1 UV Erasable Devices (EPROM)

The UV erasable versions, offered in CERDIP

packages, are optimal for prototype development and

pilot programs

UV erasable devices can be programmed for any of

the four oscillator conﬁgurations. Microchip's

PICSTART



and PRO MATE



programmers both

support programming of the PIC16C5X. Third party

programmers also are available; refer to the Third

Party Guide for a list of sources.

2.2 One-Time-Programmable (OTP)

Devices

The availability of OTP devices is especially useful for

customers expecting frequent code changes and

updates.

The OTP devices, packaged in plastic packages,

permit the user to program them once. In addition to

the program memory, the conﬁguration bits must be

programmed.

2.3 Quick-Turnaround-Production (QTP)

the OTP devices but with all EPROM locations and

conﬁguration bit options already programmed by the

factory. Certain code and prototype veriﬁcation

procedures apply before production shipments are

available. Please contact your Microchip Technology

sales ofﬁce for more details.

2.4 Serialized

Quick-Turnaround-Production

(SQTP ) Devices

Microchip offers the unique programming service

where a few user-deﬁned locations in each device are

programmed with different serial numbers. The serial

numbers may be random, pseudo-random or

sequential. The devices are identical to the OTP

devices but with all EPROM locations and

conﬁguration bit options already programmed by the

factory.

Serial programming allows each device to have a

unique number which can serve as an entry code,

password or ID number.

2.5 Read Only Memory (ROM) Devices

Microchip offers masked ROM versions of several of

the highest volume parts, giving the customer a low

cost option for high volume, mature products.

PIC16C5X

3.0 ARCHITECTURAL OVERVIEW

The high performance of the PIC16C5X family can be

attributed to a number of architectural features

commonly found in RISC microprocessors. To begin

with, the PIC16C5X uses a Harvard architecture in

which program and data are accessed on separate

buses. This improves bandwidth over traditional von

Neumann architecture where program and data are

fetched on the same bus. Separating program and

data memory further allows instructions to be sized

differently than the 8-bit wide data word. Instruction

opcodes are 12-bits wide making it possible to ha ve all

single word instructions. A 12-bit wide program

memory access bus fetches a 12-bit instruction in a

single cycle. A two-stage pipeline overlaps fetch and

execution of instructions . Consequently, all instructions

(33) execute in a single cycle (200ns @ 20MHz)

except for program branches.

The PIC16C52 addresses 384 x 12 of program

memory, the PIC16C54s/CR54s and PIC16C55s

address 512 x 12 of program memory, the

PIC16C56s/CR56s address 1K X 12 of program

memory, and the PIC16C57s/CR57s and

PIC16C58s/CR58s address 2K x 12 of program

memory. All program memory is internal.

The PIC16C5X can directly or indirectly address its

registers including the program counter are mapped in

the data memory. The PIC16C5X has a highly

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 PIC16C5X simple yet efﬁcient.

In addition, the learning curve is reduced signiﬁcantly.

The PIC16C5X device contains 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

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 W (working) register. The

other operand is either 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 borrow and digit borrow out bit,

respectively, in subtraction. See the

SUBWF

and

ADDWF

instructions for examples.

the corresponding device pins described in Table 3-1.

3.1 Clocking 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 is incremented every Q1, and the

instruction is fetched from program memory and

latched into instruction register in Q4. It is decoded

and executed dur ing the following Q1 through Q4. The

clocks and instruction execution ﬂow is shown in

Figure 3-2 and Example 3-1.

3.2 Instruction Flow/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 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

PIC16C5X memory is organized into program memory

and data memory. For devices with more than 512

bytes of program memory, a paging scheme is used.

Program memory pages are accessed using one or

two STATUS register bits. For devices with a data

memory register ﬁle of more than 32 registers, a

banking scheme is used. Data memor y banks are

accessed using the File Selection Register (FSR).

4.1 Program Memory Organization

The PIC16C52 has a 9-bit Program Counter (PC)

capable of addressing a 384 x 12 program memory

space (Figure 4-1). The PIC16C54s , PIC16CR54s and

PIC16C55s have a 9-bit Program Counter (PC)

capable of addressing a 512 x 12 program memory

space (Figure 4-2). The PIC16C56s and PIC16CR56s

have a 10-bit Program Counter (PC) capable of

addressing a 1K x 12 program memory space

(Figure 4-3). The PIC16CR57s, PIC16C58s and

PIC16CR58s hav e an 11-bit Prog r am Counter capab le

of addressing a 2K x 12 program memory space

(Figure 4-4). Accessing a location above the physically

implemented address will cause a wraparound.

The reset vector for the PIC16C52 is at 17Fh. A NOP

at the reset vector location will cause a restar t at

location 000h. The reset vector for the PIC16C54s,

PIC16CR54s and PIC16C55s is at 1FFh. The reset

vector for the PIC16C56s and PIC16CR56s is at

3FFh. The reset vector for the PIC16C57s,

PIC16CR57s, PIC16C58s, and PIC16CR58s is at

7FFh.

4.2 Data Memory Organization

Data memory is composed of registers, or bytes of

RAM. Therefore, data memor y for a device is speciﬁed

by its register ﬁle. The register ﬁle is divided into two

functional groups: special function registers and

general purpose registers.

The special function registers include the TMR0

are used to control the I/O port conﬁguration and

prescaler options.

The general purpose registers are used for data and

control information under command of the instructions.

For the PIC16C52, PIC16C54s, PIC16CR54s,

PIC16C56s and PIC16CR56s, the register ﬁle is

composed of 7 special function registers and 25

general purpose registers (Figure 4-5).

For the PIC16C55s, the register ﬁle is composed of 8

special function registers and 24 general pur pose

registers.

For the PIC16C57s and PIC16CR57s, the register ﬁle

is composed of 8 special function registers, 24 general

purpose registers and up to 48 additional general

purpose registers that may be addressed using a

banking scheme (Figure 4-6).

For the PIC16C58s and PIC16CR58s, the register ﬁle

is composed of 7 special function registers, 25 general

purpose registers and up to 48 additional general

purpose registers that may be addressed using a

banking scheme (Figure 4-7).

4.2.1 GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE

The register ﬁle is accessed either directly or indirectly

through the ﬁle select register FSR (Section 4.7).

4.2.2 SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS

The Special Function Registers are registers used by

the CPU and peripheral functions to control the

operation of the device (Table 4-1).

The special registers can be classiﬁed into two sets.

The special function registers associated with the

“core” functions are descr ibed in this section. Those

related to the operation of the peripheral features are

described in the section for each peripheral feature.

4.3 STATUS Register

This register contains the arithmetic status of the ALU,

the RESET status, and the page preselect bits for

program memories larger than 512 words.

The STATUS register can be the destination for any

instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS

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 TO 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 STATUS register

as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).

It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF and

MOVWF instructions be used to alter the STATUS

DC or C bits from the STATUS register. For other

instructions, which do affect STATUS bits, see

Section 8.0, Instruction Set Summary.

4.5 Program Counter

As a program instruction is executed, the Program

Counter (PC) will contain the address of the next

program instruction to be executed. The PC value is

increased by one every instruction cycle, unless an

instruction changes the PC.

For a GOTO instruction, bits 8:0 of the PC are provided

by the GOTO instruction word. The PC Latch (PCL) is

mapped to PC<7:0> (Figure 4-10 and Figure 4-11).

For the PIC16C56s, PIC16CR56s, PIC16C57s,

PIC16CR57s, PIC16C58s and PIC16CR58s, a page

number must be supplied as well. Bit5 and bit6 of the

STATUS register provide page infor mation to bit9 and

bit10 of the PC (Figure 4-11 and Figure 4-12).

For a CALL instr uction, or any instruction where the

PCL is the destination, bits 7:0 of the PC again are

provided by the instruction word. However, PC<8>

does not come from the instruction word, but is always

cleared (Figure 4-10 and Figure 4-11).

Instructions where the PCL is the destination, or

Modify PCL instructions, include MOVWF PC, ADDWF

PC, and BSF PC,5.

For the PIC16C56s, PIC16CR56s, PIC16C57s,

PIC16CR57s, PIC16C58s and PIC16CR58s, a page

number again must be supplied. Bit5 and bit6 of the

STATUS register provide page infor mation to bit9 and

bit10 of the PC (Figure 4-11 and Figure 4-12).

Note: Because PC<8> is cleared in the CALL

instruction, or any Modify PCL instruction,

all subroutine calls or computed jumps are

limited to the ﬁrst 256 locations of any pro-

gram memory page (512 words long).

4.5.1 PAGING CONSIDERATIONS –

PIC16C56s/CR56s, PIC16C57s/CR57s AND

PIC16C58s/CR58s

If the Program Counter is pointing to the last address

of a selected memory page, when it increments it will

cause the program to continue in the next higher page.

However, the page preselect bits in the STATUS

CALL, or Modify PCL instruction will send the program

to the page speciﬁed by the page preselect bits (PA0

or PA1:PA0).

For example, a NOP at location 1FFh (page 0)

increments the PC to 200h (page 1). A GOTO xxx at

200h will return the program to address 0xxh on page

0 (assuming that PA1:PA0 are clear).

To prevent this, the page preselect bits must be

updated under program control.

4.5.2 EFFECTS OF RESET

The Program Counter is set upon a RESET, which

means that the PC addresses the last location in the

last page i.e., the reset vector.

The STATUS register page preselect bits are cleared

upon a RESET, which means that page 0 is

pre-selected.

Therefore, upon a RESET, a GOTO instruction at the

reset vector location will automatically cause the

program to jump to page 0.

4.6 Stack

PIC16C5X devices have a 9-bit, 10-bit or 11-bit wide,

two-level hardware push/pop stack (Figure 4-2,

Figure 4-1, and Figure 4-3 respectively).

A CALL instr uction will

push

the current value of stack

1 into stack 2 and then push the current program

counter value , incremented b y one , into stac k le v el 1. If

more than two sequential CALL’s are executed, only

the most recent two return addresses are stored.

A RETLW instruction will

pop

the contents of stack level

1 into the program counter and then copy stack level 2

contents into level 1. If more than two sequential

RETLW’s are executed, the stack will be filled with the

address previously stored in level 2. Note that the

W register will be loaded with the literal value speciﬁed

in the instruction. This is par ticularly useful for the

implementation of data look-up tables within the

program memory.

For the RETLW instr uction, the PC is loaded with the

Top Of Stack (TOS) contents. All of the devices

covered in this data sheet have a two-level stack. The

stack has the same bit width as the device PC.

4.7 Indirect Data Addressing; INDF and

FSR Registers

The INDF register is not a physical register.

Addressing INDF actually addresses the register

whose address is contained in the FSR register (FSR

is a

pointer

). This is indirect addressing.

EXAMPLE 4-1: INDIRECT ADDRESSING

• Register ﬁle 05 contains the value 10h

• Register ﬁle 06 contains the value 0Ah

• Load the value 05 into the FSR register

• A read of the INDF register will return the value

of 10h

• Increment the value of the FSR register by one

(FSR = 06h)

• A read of the INDR register now will return the

value of 0Ah.

Reading INDF itself indirectly (FSR = 0) will produce

00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly results in a

no-operation (although STATUS bits may be affected).

A simple program to clear RAM locations 10h-1Fh

using indirect addressing is shown in Example 4-2.

EXAMPLE 4-2: HOW TO CLEAR RAM

USING INDIRECT

ADDRESSING

movlw 0x10 ;initialize pointer

movwf FSR ; to RAM

NEXT clrf INDF ;clear INDF register

incf FSR,F ;inc pointer

btfsc FSR,4 ;all done?

goto NEXT ;NO, clear next

CONTINUE : ;YES, continue

The FSR is either a 5-bit (PIC16C52, PIC16C54s,

PIC16CR54s, PIC16C55s), 6-bit (PIC16C56s,

PIC16CR56s), or 7-bit (PIC16C57s, PIC16CR57s,

PIC16C58s, PIC16CR58s) wide register. It is used in

conjunction with the INDF register to indirectly address

the data memory area.

The FSR<4:0> bits are used to select data memory

addresses 00h to 1Fh.

PIC16C52, PIC16C54s, PIC16CR54s, PIC16C55s:

These do not use banking. FSR<6:5> are

unimplemented and read as '1's.

PIC16C57s, PIC16CR57s, PIC16C58s,

PIC16CR58s: FSR<6:5> are the bank select bits and

are used to select the bank to be addressed (00 =

bank 0, 01 = bank 1, 10 = bank 2, 11 = bank 3).

5.0 I/O PORTS

As with any other register, the I/O registers can be

written and read under program control. Howe v er, read

instructions (e.g., MOVF PORTB,W) always read the I/O

pins independent of the pin’s input/output modes. On

RESET, all I/O ports are deﬁned as input (inputs are at

hi-impedance) since the I/O control registers (TRISA,

TRISB, TRISC) are all set.

5.1 PORTA

PORTA is a 4-bit I/O register. Only the low order 4 bits

are used (RA3:RA0). Bits 7-4 are unimplemented and

read as '0's.

5.2 PORTB

PORTB is an 8-bit I/O register (PORTB<7:0>).

5.3 PORTC

PORTC is an 8-bit I/O register for PIC16C55s,

PIC16C57s and PIC16CR57s.

PORTC is a general purpose register for PIC16C52,

PIC16C54s, PIC16CR54s, PIC16C56s, PIC16C58s

and PIC16CR58s.

5.4 TRIS Registers

The output driver control registers are loaded with the

contents of the W register by executing the TRIS f

instruction. 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 TRIS registers are “write-only” and are set (output

drivers disabled) upon RESET.

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 por t will indicate that the pin is

low.

5.5 I/O Interfacing

The equivalent circuit for an I/O port pin is shown in

Figure 5-1. All ports may be used for both input and

output operation. For input operations these ports are

non-latching. Any input must be present until read by

an input instruction (e.g., MOVF PORTB, 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 TRISA,

TRISB) must be cleared (= 0). For use as an input, the

corresponding TRIS bit must be set. Any I/O pin can

be programmed individually as input or output.

5.6 I/O Programming Considerations

5.6.1 BI-DIRECTIONAL I/O PORTS

Some instructions operate internally as read followed

by write operations. The BCF and BSF instructions, for

example, read the entire port into the CPU, execute

the bit operation and re-write the result. Caution must

be used when these instructions are applied to a por t

where one or more pins are used as input/outputs. For

example, a BSF operation on bit5 of PORTB will cause

all eight bits of PORTB to be read into the CPU, bit5 to

be set and the PORTB v alue to be written to the output

latches. If another bit of PORTB is used as a

bi-directional I/O pin (say 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

into output mode later on, the content of the data latch

may now be unknown.

Example 5-1 shows the effect of two sequential

read-modify-write instructions (e.g., BCF, BSF, etc.) on

an I/O port.

A pin actively outputting a high or a low should not be

driven from external devices at the same time in order

to change the lev el on this pin (“wired-or”, “wired-and”).

The resulting high output currents may damage the

chip.

;values to be 00pp pppp. The 2nd BCF caused

5.6.2 SUCCESSIVE OPERATIONS ON I/O

PORTS

The actual write to an I/O por t happens at the end of

an instruction cycle, whereas for reading, the data

must be valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle

(Figure 5-2). 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

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 a NOP or another

instruction not accessing this I/O port.

6.0 TIMER0 MODULE AND

TMR0 REGISTER

The Timer0 module has the following features:

• 8-bit timer/counter register, TMR0

- Readable and writable

• 8-bit software programmable prescaler

• Internal or external clock select

- Edge select for external clock

Figure 6-1 is a simpliﬁed block diagram of the Timer0

module, while Figure 6-2 shows the electrical structure

of the Timer0 input.

Timer mode is selected by clearing the T0CS bit

(OPTION<5>). In timer mode, the Timer0 module will

increment every instruction cycle (without prescaler). If

TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited for

the following two cycles (Figure 6-3 and Figure 6-4).

The user can work around this by writing an adjusted

value to the TMR0 register.

Counter mode is selected by setting the T0CS bit

(OPTION<5>). In this mode, Timer0 will increment

either on ever y r ising or falling edge of pin T0CKI. The

incrementing edge is determined by the source edge

select bit T0SE (OPTION<4>). Clearing the T0SE bit

selects the rising edge. Restrictions on the external

clock input are discussed in detail in Section 6.1.

The prescaler may be used by either the Timer0

module or the Watchdog Timer, but not both. 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 v alues of 1:2,

1:4,..., 1:256 are selectable. Section 6.2 details the

operation of the prescaler.

A summary of registers associated with the Timer0

module is found in Table 6-1.

6.1 Using Timer0 with an 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 (TOSC)

synchronization. Also, there is a delay in the actual

incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization.

6.1.1 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

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 necessar y 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 parameters 40, 41 and 42 in the

electrical speciﬁcation of the desired device.

6.1.2 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 Timer0

module is actually incremented. Figure 6-5 shows the

delay from the external clock edge to the timer

incrementing.

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.

The arrows indicate the points in time where sampling occurs.

DS30453B-page 30 Preliminary  1998 Microchip Technology Inc.

6.2 Prescaler

An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the

Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog

Timer (WDT) (WDT postscaler not implemented on

PIC16C52), respectively (Section 6.1.2). For simplicity,

this counter is being referred to as “prescaler”

throughout this data sheet. Note that the prescaler

may be used by either the Timer0 module or the WDT,

but not both. Thus, a prescaler assignment for the

Timer0 module means that there is no prescaler for

the WDT, and vice-versa.

The PSA and PS2:PS0 bits (OPTION<3:0>) determine

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 WDT. The prescaler is neither readable

nor writable. On a RESET, the prescaler contains all

'0's.

6.2.1 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 the WDT.

EXAMPLE 6-1: CHANGING PRESCALER

(TIMER0→WDT)

1.CLRWDT ;Clear WDT

2.CLRF TMR0 ;Clear TMR0 & Prescaler

3.MOVLW '00xx1111’b ;These 3 lines (5, 6, 7)

4.OPTION ; are required only if

; desired

5.CLRWDT ;PS<2:0> are 000 or 001

6.MOVLW '00xx1xxx’b ;Set Postscaler to

7.OPTION ; desired WDT rate

To change prescaler from the WDT to the Timer0

module, use the sequence shown in Example 6-2. This

sequence must be used even if the WDT is disabled. A

CLRWDT instruction should be executed before switching

the prescaler.

7.0 SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE

CPU

What sets a microcontroller apart from other

processors are special circuits that deal with the

needs of real-time applications. The PIC16C5X family

of microcontrollers 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 features are:

• Oscillator selection

• Reset

• Power-On Reset (POR)

• Device Reset Timer (DRT)

• W atchdog Timer (WDT)

(not implemented on PIC16C52)

• SLEEP

• Code protection

• ID locations (not implemented on PIC16C52)

The PIC16C5X Family has a Watchdog Timer which

can be shut off only through conﬁguration bit WDTE. It

runs off of its own RC oscillator for added reliability.

There is an 18 ms delay provided by the Device Reset

Timer (DRT), intended to keep the chip in reset until

the crystal oscillator is stable. With this timer on-chip,

most applications need no external reset circuitry.

The SLEEP mode is designed to offer a very low

current power-do wn mode. The user can w ake up from

SLEEP through external reset or through a Watchdog

Timer time-out. 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.

7.1 Conﬁguration Bits

Conﬁguration bits can be programmed to select

various device conﬁgurations. Two bits are for the

selection of the oscillator type and one bit is the

Watchdog Timer enable bit. Nine bits are code

protection bits (Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2) for the

PIC16C54, PIC16CR54, PIC16C56, PIC16CR56,

PIC16C58, and PIC16CR58 devices.

QTP or ROM devices have the oscillator conﬁguration

programmed at the factor y and these par ts are tested

accordingly (see "Product Identiﬁcation System"

diagrams in the back of this data sheet).

7.2 Oscillator Conﬁgurations

7.2.1 OSCILLATOR TYPES

PIC16C5Xs can be operated in four different oscillator

modes. The user can program two conﬁguration bits

(FOSC1: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/CLKIN and OSC2/CLKOUT

pins to establish oscillation (Figure 7-3). The

PIC16C5X 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 drive the

OSC1/CLKIN pin (Figure 7-4).

7.2.3 EXTERNAL CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR

CIRCUIT

Either a prepackaged oscillator or a simple oscillator

circuit with TTL gates can be used as an external

crystal oscillator circuit. 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 parallel

resonance, or one with series resonance.

Figure 7-5 shows implementation of a parallel

resonant oscillator circuit. The circuit is designed to

use the fundamental frequency of the crystal. The

74AS04 inverter perfor ms the 180-degree 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 circuit could be used for external oscillator

designs.

This circuit is also designed to use the fundamental

frequency of the crystal. The inverter performs a

180-degree phase shift in a series resonant oscillator

circuit. The 330 Ω resistors provide the negative

feedback to bias the inverters in their linear region.

Note: If you change from this device to

another device, please verify oscillator

7.2.4 RC OSCILLATOR

For timing insensitive applications, the RC device

option offers additional cost savings. The RC oscillator

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 fr ame 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 7-7 shows how the R/C combination is

connected to the PIC16C5X. 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 keeping

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.

Note: If you change from this device to

another device, please verify oscillator

characteristics in your application.

7.3 Reset

PIC16C5X devices may be reset in one of the

following ways:

• Power-On Reset (POR)

•M

CLR reset (normal operation)

• MCLR wake-up reset (from SLEEP)

• WDT reset (normal operation)

• WDT wake-up reset (from SLEEP)

Table 7-3 shows these reset conditions for the PCL

and STATUS registers.

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 (POR), MCLR or

WDT reset. A MCLR or WDT wake-up from SLEEP

also results in a device reset, and not a contin uation of

operation before SLEEP.

The TO and PD bits (STATUS <4:3>) are set or

cleared depending on the different reset conditions

(Section 7.7). These bits may be used to determine

the nature of the reset.

Table 7-4 lists a full description of reset states of all

registers. Figure 7-8 shows a simpliﬁed block diagram

of the on-chip reset circuit.

7.4 Power-On Reset (POR)

The PIC16C5X family incorporates on-chip Power-On

Reset (POR) circuitry which provides an internal chip

reset for most power-up situations. To use this feature,

the user merely ties the MCLR/VPP pin to VDD. A

simpliﬁed block diagram of the on-chip Power-On

Reset circuit is shown in Figure 7-8.

The Power-On Reset circuit and the Device Reset

Timer (Section 7.5) circuit are closely related. On

power-up, the reset latch is set and the DRT is reset.

The DRT timer begins counting once it detects MCLR

to be high. After the time-out per iod, which is typically

18 ms, it will reset the reset latch and thus end the

on-chip reset signal.

A power-up example where MCLR is not tied to VDD is

shown in Figure 7-10. VDD is allowed to rise and

stabilize before bringing MCLR high. The chip will

actually come out of reset TDRT msec after MCLR

goes high.

In Figure 7-11, the on-chip Power-On Reset feature is

being used (MCLR and VDD are tied together). The

VDD is stable before the start-up timer times out and

there is no problem in getting a proper reset. However,

Figure 7-12 depicts a problem situation where VDD

rises too slowly. The time between when the DRT

senses a high on the MCLR/VPP pin, and when the

MCLR/VPP pin (and VDD) actually reach their full v alue ,

is too long. In this situation, when the start-up timer

times out, VDD has not reached the VDD (min) value

and the chip is, therefore, not guaranteed to function

correctly. For such situations, we recommend that

external RC circuits be used to achieve longer POR

delay times (Figure 7-9).

For more information on PIC16C5X POR, see

Power-Up Considerations

- AN522 in the Embedded

Control Handbook.

The POR circuit does not produce an internal reset

when VDD declines.

Note: When the device starts normal operation

(exits the reset condition), device operat-

ing parameters (voltage, frequency, tem-

perature, etc.) must be meet to ensure

operation. If these conditions are not met,

the device must be held in reset until the

operating conditions are met.

• External Power-On Reset circuit is required

only if VDD power-up is too slow. The diode D

• R < 40 kΩ is recommended to make sure that

voltage drop across R does not violate the

device electrical speciﬁcation.

• R1 = 100Ω to 1 kΩ will limit any current

ﬂowing into MCLR from external capacitor C

in the event of MCLR pin breakdown due to

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) or Electrical

Overstress (EOS).

7.5 Device Reset Timer (DRT)

The Device Reset Timer (DRT) provides a ﬁxed 18 ms

nominal time-out on reset. The DRT operates on an

internal RC oscillator. The processor is kept in RESET

as long as the DRT is active. The DRT delay allows

VDD to rise above VDD min., and for the oscillator to

stabilize.

Oscillator circuits based on crystals or ceramic

resonators require a certain time after power-up to

establish a stable oscillation. The on-chip DRT keeps

the device in a RESET condition for approximately 18

ms after the voltage on the MCLR/VPP pin has

reached a logic high (VIH) level. Thus, external RC

networks connected to the MCLR input are not

required in most cases, allowing for savings in

cost-sensitive and/or space restricted applications.

The Device Reset time delay will vary from device to

device due to VDD, temperature, and process

variation. See AC parameters for details.

The DRT will also be triggered upon a Watchdog Timer

time-out. This is particularly impor tant for applications

using the WDT to wake the PIC16C5X from SLEEP

mode automatically.

7.6 Watchdog Timer (WDT) (not

implemented on PIC16C52)

The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a free r unning on-chip

RC oscillator which does not require any external

components. This RC oscillator is separate from the

RC oscillator of the OSC1/CLKIN pin. That means that

the WDT will run even if the clock on the OSC1/CLKIN

and OSC2/CLKOUT pins have been stopped, for

example, by execution of a SLEEP instruction. During

normal operation or SLEEP, a WDT reset or wake-up

reset generates a device RESET.

The TO bit (STATUS<4>) will be cleared upon a

W atchdog Timer reset.

The WDT can be permanently disabled by

programming the conﬁguration bit WDTE as a '0'

(Section 7.1). Refer to the PIC16C5X Programming

Speciﬁcations (Literature Number DS30190) to

determine how to access the conﬁguration word.

7.6.1 WDT PERIOD

The WDT has a nominal time-out period of 18 ms,

(with no prescaler). If a longer time-out period is

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 a

period of a nominal 2.3 seconds can be realized.

These periods vary with temperature, VDD and

part-to-part process variations (see DC specs).

Under worst case conditions (VDD = Min., Temperature

= Max., max. WDT prescaler), it may take several

seconds before a WDT time-out occurs.

7.6.2 WDT PROGRAMMING CONSIDERATIONS

The CLRWDT instruction clears the WDT and the

postscaler, if assigned to the WDT, and prevents it

from timing out and generating a device RESET.

The SLEEP instruction resets the WDT and the

postscaler, if assigned to the WDT. This gives the

maximum SLEEP time before a WDT wake-up reset.

7.7 Time-Out Sequence and Power Down

Status Bits (TO/PD)

The TO and PD bits in the STATUS register can be

tested to determine if a RESET condition has been

caused by a po wer-up condition, a MCLR or Watchdog

Timer (WDT) reset, or a MCLR or WDT w ak e-up reset.

These STATUS bits are only affected by events listed

in Table 7-7.

Table 7-3 lists the reset conditions for the special

function registers, while Table 7-4 lists the reset

conditions for all the registers.

7.8 Reset on Brown-Out

A brown-out is a condition where device power (VDD)

dips below its minimum v alue , b ut not to zero, and then

recovers. The device should be reset in the event of a

brown-out.

To reset PIC16C5X devices when a brown-out occurs,

external brown-out protection circuits may be built, as

shown in Figure 7-14 and Figure 7-15.

FIGURE 7-14: BROWN-OUT PROTECTION

7.9 Power-Down Mode (SLEEP)

A device may be powered down (SLEEP) and later

powered up (Wake-up from SLEEP).

7.9.1 SLEEP

The Power-Down mode is entered by executing a

SLEEP instruction.

If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but

keeps running, the TO bit (STATUS<4>) is set, the PD

bit (STATUS<3>) is cleared and the oscillator driver is

turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had

before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving

high, driving low, or hi-impedance).

It should be noted that a RESET generated by a WDT

time-out does not drive the MCLR/VPP pin low.

For lowest current consumption while powered down,

the T0CKI input should be at VDD or VSS and the

MCLR/VPP pin must be at a logic high level.

7.9.2 WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP

The device can wake up from SLEEP through one of

the following events:

1. An external reset input on MCLR/VPP pin.

2. A Watchdog Timer time-out reset (if WDT was

enabled).

Both of these events cause a device reset. The TO and

PD bits can be used to determine the cause of device

reset. The TO bit is cleared if a WDT time-out

occurred (and caused wake-up). The PD bit, which is

set on power-up, is cleared when SLEEP is invoked.

The WDT is cleared when the device wakes from

sleep, regardless of the wake-up source.

7.10 Program Veriﬁcation/Code Protection

If the code protection bit(s) have not been

programmed, the on-chip program memory can be

read out for veriﬁcation purposes.

7.11 ID Locations (not implemented on

PIC16C52)

Four memory locations 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.

Use only the lower 4 bits of the ID locations and

always program the upper 8 bits as '1's.

Note: Microchip does not recommend code pro-

tecting windowed devices.

Note: Microchip will assign a unique pattern

number for QTP and SQTP requests and

for ROM devices. This pattern number will

be unique and traceable to the submitted

code.

8.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY

Each PIC16C5X instruction is a 12-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 PIC16C5X instruction set summary in

Table 8-2 groups the instructions into byte-oriented,

bit-oriented, and literal and control operations. 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 is used to specify which one of the

32 ﬁle registers is to be used by the instruction.

The destination designator speciﬁes where the result

of the operation is to be placed. If 'd' is '0', the result is

placed in the W register. If 'd' is '1', 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 aff ected

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

8 or 9-bit constant or literal value.

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. One instruction cycle consists of

four oscillator periods. Thus , for an oscillator frequency

of 4 MHz, the normal instruction e x ecution 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.

Figure 8-1 shows the three general formats that the

instructions can have . All examples in the ﬁgure use the

ers.

4: If this instruction is executed on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be cleared

MPASM allows full symbolic debugging from

PICMASTER, Microchip’s Universal Emulator System.

MPASM has the following features to assist in

developing software for speciﬁc use applications.

• Provides translation of Assembler source code to

object code for all Microchip microcontrollers.

• Macro assembly capability.

• Produces all the ﬁles (Object, Listing, Symbol,

and special) required for symbolic debug with

Microchip’s emulator systems.

• Supports He x (def ault), Decimal and Octal source

and listing formats.

MPASM provides a rich directive language to support

programming of the PICmicro. Directives are helpful in

making the development of your assemble source

code shorter and more maintainable.

9.11 Software Simulator (MPLAB-SIM)

The MPLAB-SIM Software Simulator allows code

development in a PC host environment. It allows the

user to simulate the PICmicro series microcontrollers

on an instruction level. On any given instruction, the

user may examine or modify any of the data areas or

provide external stimulus to any of the pins. The

input/output radix can be set by the user and the

execution can be performed in; single step, execute

until break, or in a trace mode.

MPLAB-SIM fully supports symbolic debugging using

MPLAB-C and MPASM. The Software Simulator offers

the low cost ﬂexibility to develop and debug code

outside of the laboratory environment making it an

excellent multi-project software development tool.

9.12 C Compiler (MPLAB-C17)

The MPLAB-C Code Development System is a

complete ‘C’ compiler and integrated development

environment for Microchip’s PIC17CXXX family of

microcontrollers. The compiler provides powerful

integration capabilities and ease of use not found with

other compilers.

For easier source level debugging, the compiler

provides symbol inf ormation that is compatible with the

MPLAB IDE memory display.

2: This is the limit to which VDD can be lowered in SLEEP mode without losing RAM data.

3: The supply current is mainly a function of the operating voltage and frequency. Other factors such as bus

loading, oscillator type, bus rate, internal code execution pattern, and temperature also have an impact on

the current consumption.

a) The test conditions for all IDD measurements in active operation mode are:

OSC1 = external square wave, from rail-to-rail; all I/O pins tristated, pulled to

Vss, T0CKI = VDD, MCLR = VDD.

b) For standby current measurements, the conditions are the same, except that

the device is in SLEEP mode.

4: For RC option, does not include current through Rext. The current through the resistor can be estimated by

the formula: IR = VDD/2Rext (mA) with Rext in kΩ.

5: The power down current in SLEEP mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power down current is

measured with the part in SLEEP mode, with all I/O pins in hi-impedance state and tied to VDD and VSS.

and devices will operate properly only within the speciﬁed range.

The data presented in this section is a statistical summary of data collected on units from different lots ov er a period of

time. “Typical” represents the mean of the distribution while “max” or “min” represents (mean + 3σ) and (mean – 3σ)

respectively, where σ is standard deviation.

IPD, with WDT enabled, has two components:

The leakage current which increases with higher temperature

and the operating current of the WDT logic which increases

with lower temperature. At –40°C, the latter dominates

explaining the apparently anomalous behavior.

Note 2: Voltage spikes belo w Vss at the MCLR pin, inducing currents g reater than 80 mA ma y cause latch-up . Thus ,

a series resistor of 50 to 100Ω should be used when applying a low lev el to the MCLR pin rather than pulling

this pin directly to Vss.

4: Does not include current through Rext. The current through the resistor can be estimated by the

formula: IR = VDD/2Rext (mA) with Rext in kΩ.

5: The power down current in SLEEP mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power down current is

measured with the part in SLEEP mode, with all I/O pins in hi-impedance state and tied to VDD and VSS.

Note 1: Data in the Typical (“Typ”) column is based on characterization results at 25°C . This data is f or design guidance

only and is not tested.

2: This is the limit to which VDD can be lowered in SLEEP mode without losing RAM data.

3: The supply current is mainly a function of the operating voltage and frequency. Other factors such as bus

loading, oscillator type, bus rate, internal code execution pattern, and temperature also have an impact on

the current consumption.

a) The test conditions for all IDD measurements in active operation mode are:

OSC1 = external square wave, from rail-to-rail; all I/O pins tristated, pulled to

Vss, T0CKI = VDD, MCLR = VDD; WDT enabled/disabled as speciﬁed.

b) For standby current measurements, the conditions are the same, except that

the device is in SLEEP mode.

4: Does not include current through Rext. The current through the resistor can be estimated by the

formula: IR = VDD/2Rext (mA) with Rext in kΩ.

5: The power down current in SLEEP mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power down current is

measured with the part in SLEEP mode, with all I/O pins in hi-impedance state and tied to VDD and VSS.
