2.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION
There are three memory blocks in each of these
PICmicro MCUs. The Program Memory and Data
Memory have separate buses so that concurrent
access can occur and is detailed in this section. The
EEPROM data memory block is detailed in
Section 4.0.
Addit ional inf ormation on de vic e memory ma y be f oun d
in the PICmicro Mid-Range Reference Manual,
(DS33023).
2.1 Program Memory Organization
The PIC 16F87X de vices ha ve a 13-bit prog ram coun ter
capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory
space. The PIC16F877/876 devices have 8K x 14
word s of FLASH progr am memory and the PIC 16F873/
874 devices have 4K x 14. Accessing a location above
the physically implemented address will cause a wrap-
around.
The reset vector is at 0000h and the interrupt vector is
at 0004h.

2.2 Data Memory Organization
The data memory is partitioned into multiple banks
which contain the General Pur pose Registers and the
Special Function Registers. Bits RP1(STATUS<6>) and
RP0 (STATUS<5>) are the bank select bits.
Each bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes). The lower
locations of each bank are reserved for the Special
Functio n Regis ters . Abo v e the Sp ecial Functi on Regi s-
ters are General Purpose Registers, implemented as
static RAM. All implemented banks contain Special
Function Registers. Some “high use” Special Function
Registers from one bank may be mirrored in another
bank for code reduction and quicker access.
2.2.1 GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE
The register file can be accessed either directly, or indi-
rectly through the File Select Register FSR.

2.2.2 SPECIAL FUNCTION REGISTERS
The Special Function Registers are registers used by
the CPU and peripheral modules for controlling the
desired operation of the device. These registers are
implemented as static RAM. A list of these registers is
given in Table 2-1.
The Special Function Registers can be classified into
two sets; core (CPU) and peripheral. Those registers
associated with the core functions are described in
detail in this section. Those related to the operation of
the peripheral features are described in detail in the
peripheral feature section.

2.2.2.1 STATUS REGISTER
The STATUS register contains the arithmetic status of
the ALU, the RESET st atus an d the ba nk sel ect bi ts f or
data me mo ry.
The STATUS register can be the destination for any
instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS
register is the destination for an instruction that affects
the Z, DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is
disab led . The se bi ts ar e set o r clea red a ccordi ng to the
device logi c. Fur t her more, 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.
Fo r example, CLRF STATUS will cl ea r t h e up p er- th r ee
bits an d set the Z bi t. T his l ea ve s the STATUS register
as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,
SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the
STATUS register, because these instructions do not
aff ect the Z, C or DC bits from the STATUS regi ster . F or
other instructions not affecting any status bits, see the
"Instruction Set Summary."

2.3 PCL and PCLATH
The prog ram counter (PC ) is 13-bits wide. The lo w byte
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and
writable register. The upper bits (PC<12:8>) are not
readable, but are indirectly writable through the
PCLATH register . On an y reset, the upper bits of the PC
will be cleared. Figure 2-5 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 lower example in the fig-
ure shows ho w the PC is loaded during a CALL or GOTO
instruction (PCLATH<4:3> → PCH).
FIGURE 2-5: LOADING OF PC IN
DIFFERENT SITUATIONS
2.3.1 COMPUTED GOTO
A comput ed GOTO i s a cc om pli sh ed by adding an o ffs et
to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When doing a
table read using a computed GOTO method, care
should be exerc ised if the table location cros se s a PCL
memory boundary (each 256 byte block). Refer to the
application note,
“Implementing a Table Read"
(AN556).
2.3.2 STACK
The PIC16CXX f amily ha s an 8-le ve l deep x 13 -bit wide
hardware stack. The stack space is not part of either
program or data space and the stack pointer is not
readab le or writab le . The PC is PUSHed on to the stac k
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 operatio n.
The stac k operates as a circular b uffer . This means that
after the stac k has b een PU SHed e ight ti mes , th e nin th
push overwrites th e value that was stored from the firs t
push. The tenth pus h overwrites the second push (an d
so on).
2.4 Program Memory Paging
PIC16CXX de vices are ca pable of add ressing a contin-
uous 8K w ord bl ock of pr ogram me mory. The CALL and
GOTO instructions provide only 11 bits of address to
allow branching within any 2K program memory page.
When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction, the upper 2
bits of the address are provided by PCLATH<4:3>.
When doi ng a CALL or GOTO instructio n, th e u ser m us t
ensure that the page select bits are programmed so
that t he desired pro gr am memo ry page is address ed. If
a return from a CALL instruction (or interrupt) is exe-
cuted, the entire 13-bit PC is popped off the stack.
Therefore, manipulation of the PCLATH<4:3> bits are
not require d for the retu rn instruction s (which POPs the
address from the stack)
Example 2-1 shows the calling of a subroutine in
page 1 of the p rogra m memory. This e xample as sumes
that PCL ATH is sa ved and restored b y the interrupt ser-
vice r outine (if interru pts are used).

2.5 Indirect Addressing, INDF and FSR
Registers
The INDF re gister is not a ph ysical register . Add ressing
the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF reg-
ister. Any instruction using the INDF register actually
acces ses the register p ointed to b y the File Sele ct Reg-
ister, FSR. Reading the INDF register itself indirectly
(FSR = ’0’) will read 00h. Writing to the INDF register
indirec tly resu lts in a no-o pera tio n (althou gh statu s bits
ma y be affected). An eff e ctiv e 9-bit addres s is obta ined
by c on cat ena tin g the 8 - bit FS R re gis ter an d the IRP bit
(STATUS<7>), as shown in Figure 2-6.
A simple program to clear RAM locations 20h-2Fh
using indirect addressing is shown in Example 2-2.

3.0 I/O PORTS
Some pins for these I/O ports are multiplexed with an
alternate function for the peripheral features on the
device. In general, when a peripheral is enabled, that
pin may not be used as a general purpose I/O pin.
Addit ion al information on I/O ports may be found in the
PICmicro™ Mid-Range Reference Manual,
(DS33023).
3.1 PORTA and the TRISA Register
PORTA is a 6-bit wide bi-directional port. The corre-
sponding data direction register is TRISA. Setting a
TRISA b it (=1 ) wi ll m ake the corres pondi ng PORTA pin
an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a
hi-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISA bit (=0) will
mak e the c orresp onding POR TA pin an output (i. e., p ut
the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).
Reading the PORTA register reads the status of the
pins , w h erea s writ in g to it wi ll write t o th e p ort latch. All
write operations are read-modify-write operations.
Theref ore, a write to a port implies that the port pins are
read, the value is modified and then written to the po rt
data latch.
Pin RA4 is multiplexed with the Timer0 module clock
input to become the RA4/T0CKI pin. The RA4/T0CKI
pin is a Schmitt Trigger input and an open drain output.
All other PORTA pins have TTL input levels and full
CMOS output drivers.
Other PORTA pins are multiplexed with analog inputs
and analog VREF input. The operation of each pin is
selected by clearing/setting the control bits in the
ADCON1 register (A/D Control Register1).
The TRISA register controls the direction of the RA
pins, even when they are being used as anal og inputs.
The user m ust ensure the bits in the TRISA registe r are

3.2 PORTB and the TRISB Register
PORTB is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional por t. The corre-
sponding data direction register is TRISB. Setting a
TRISB bit (= 1) will mak e the corres ponding POR TB pin
an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a
hi-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISB bit (=0) will
make the corresponding PORTB pin an output (i.e., put
the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).
Three pins of POR TB are multiple xed with the Low Volt-
age Programming function; RB3/PGM, RB6/PGC and
RB7/PGD. The alternate functions of these pins are
described in the Spec ia l Features Section.
Each o f the PORTB pins has a w ea k in ternal p ull -up. A
single control bit can turn on all the pull-ups. This is per-
formed by c lea ring bi t RBPU (OPTION_REG<7>). Th e
weak pu ll-up i s automa tically tur ned off wh en the po rt
pin is configured as an output. The pull-ups are dis-
abled on a Power-on Reset.
FIGURE 3-3: BLOCK DIAGRAM OF
RB3:RB0 PINS
Four of PORTB’s pins, RB7:RB4, have an interrupt on
change feature. Only pins configured as inputs can
cause t his interrupt to occur (i.e . an y RB7:RB4 pin con-
figured as an output is excluded from the interrupt on
change comparison). The input pins (of RB7:RB4) are
compar ed w ith th e o ld value latc he d o n the la st read of
PORTB. The “mismatch” outputs of RB7:RB4 are
OR’ed together to generate the RB Port Change Inter-
rupt with flag bit RBIF (INTCON<0>).
This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The
user , in th e interrupt service routine , can clear the inter-
rupt in the following manner:
a) Any read or write of PORTB. This will end the
mismatch condition.
b) Clear fl ag 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.
The interrupt on change feature is recommended for
wake-up on key depression operation and operations
where PO RTB is only used for the inter rupt on change
feature. Polling of PORTB is not recommended while
using the interrupt on change feature.
This interrupt on mismatch feature, together with soft-
ware configureable pull-ups on these four pins, allow
easy interface to a keypad and make it possible for
wake-up on key-depression. Refer to the Embedded
Control Handbook,
“Implementing Wake-Up on Key
Stroke”
(AN552).
RB0/IN T is an external interru pt input pin and is confi g-
ured using the INTEDG bit (OPTION_REG<6>).
RB0/INT is discussed in detail in Section 12.10.1.

3.3 PORTC and the TRISC Register
PORTC is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-
sponding data direction register is TRISC. Setting a
TRISC bit (=1) will make th e correspondin g PORTC pi n
an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in a
hi-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISC bit (=0) will
mak e the corresp onding PORT C pin an outpu t (i.e. , put
the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).
POR TC is m ultiple x ed with se ver al periphera l function s
(Table 3-5). PORTC pins have Schmitt Trigger input
buffers.
When the I2C module i s enabl ed, the POR TC (3:4) pin s
can be configured with normal I2C levels or with
SMBUS levels by using the CKE bit (SSPSTAT <6>).
When enabling peripheral functions, care should be
taken in defining TRIS bits for each PORTC pin. Some
periph erals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an ou t-
put, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to
make a pin an input. Since the TRIS bit override is in
effect while the peripheral is enabled, read-modify-
write instructions (BSF, BCF, XORWF) with TRISC as
destina tion sh ould be a v oided. Th e user should ref er to
the corresponding peripheral section for the correct
TRIS bit settings.

3.5 PORTE and TRISE Register
This section is not applicable to the PIC16F873 or
PIC16F876.
PORTE has three pins, RE0/RD/AN5, RE1/WR/AN6
and RE2/CS/AN7, which are individually configurable
as inputs or outputs. These pins have Schmitt Tr igger
input buffers.
I/O PORTE becomes control inputs for the micropro-
cessor port when bit PSPMODE (TRISE<4>) is set. In
this mode, the user must make sure that the
TRISE<2:0> bits are set (pins are configured as digital
inputs). Ensure ADC ON1 is c onfigured fo r digital I/O . In
this mode, the input buffers are TTL.
Register 3-1 shows the TRISE regist er, which also con-
trols the parallel slave port operation.
PORTE pins are multiplexed with analog inputs. When
select ed as an analo g input, these pins will r ead as ’ 0’s .
TRISE control s the direction of th e RE pins, e v en when
they are being used as analog inputs. The user must
make sure to keep the pins configured as inputs when
using them as analog inputs.

3.6 Parallel Slave Port
The Parallel Slave Port is not implemented on the
PIC16F873 or PIC16F876.
POR TD operat es as an 8-bit wid e Par allel Sla ve P ort or
microprocessor port when control bit PSPMODE
(TRISE<4>) is set. In slave mode, it is asynchronously
readab le and writab le by the e xternal world thro ugh RD
control input pin RE0/RD and WR control input pin
RE1/WR.
It can directly interface to an 8-bit microprocessor data
bus . Th e e xte rnal microproc esso r can read or write the
PORTD latch as an 8-bit latch. Setting bit PSPMODE
enables por t pin RE0/RD to be the RD input, RE1/WR
to be the WR input and RE2/CS to be the CS (chip
select) input. For this functionality, the corresponding
data direction bits of the TRISE register (TRISE<2:0>)
must be configured as inputs (set). The A/D port con-
figuration bits PCFG3:PCFG0 (ADCON1<3:0>) must
be set to configure pins RE2:RE0 as digital I/O.
There are actually two 8-bit latches. One for data-out
and one f o r data i nput. T he user writes 8-bi t data to the
PORTD data latch and reads data from the port pin
latch (note that they have the same address). In this
mode, t he TRIS D regist er is i gnored, since t he micro -
processor is controlling the direction of data flow.
A write to the PSP occurs when both the CS and WR
lines ar e f irs t de t ec ted l ow. When e ith er t he CS or WR
lines become high (le vel triggered), the Input Buff er Full
(IBF) status flag bit (TRISE<7>) is set on the Q4 clock
cycle, following the next Q2 cycle, to signal the write is
complete (Figure 3-10). The interrupt flag bit PSPIF
(PIR1<7>) is also set on the same Q4 clock cycle. IBF
can onl y be cl eare d by reading the PORTD input l atc h.
The Input Buffer Overflow (IBOV) status flag bit
(TRISE<5>) is set if a second write to the PSP is
attempted when the previous byte has not been read
out of the buffer.
A read from t he PSP occurs when both the CS and R D
lines are first detected low. The Output Buffer Full
(OBF) status flag bit (TRISE<6>) is cleared immedi-
ately (Figure 3-11) indicating that the PORTD latch is
wa iti ng t o be rea d by the e x ternal bus. When eith er th e
CS or RD pin becomes high (level triggered), the inter-
rupt flag bit PSPIF is set on the Q4 clock cycle, follow-
ing the next Q2 cycle, indicating that the read is
complete. OBF remains low until data is written to
PORTD by the user firmware.
When not in PSP mode, the IBF an d OB F b its are held
clear. However, if flag bit IBOV was previously set, it
must be cleared in firmware.
An interrupt is generated and latched into flag bit
PSPIF when a read or write operation is completed.
PSPIF mus t be cleare d b y the u ser in firmware a nd the
interrupt can be disabled by clearing the interrupt
enable bit PSPIE (PIE1<7>).

• EEDATH
• EEADR
• EEADRH
The EEPR OM data memory allows byte read and write.
When interfacing to the data memory block, EEDATA
holds the 8-bit data for read/write and EEADR hold s the
address of the EEPROM lo cation being accessed. The
registers EEDATH and EEADRH are not used for data
EEPR OM acc ess. These de v ices have up t o 2 56 bytes
of data EEPROM with an address range from 0h to
FFh.
The EEPROM data memory is rated for high erase/
write cyc le s . The w rite tim e is co ntro lle d by an on-chi p
timer. The write t ime will v ary with v oltag e and temp er-
ature, as well as from chip-to-chip. Please refer to the
specifications for exact limits.
The program memory allows word reads and writes.
Program memory access allows for checksum calcula-
tion and c ali brat ion t able st orage. A byte or wor d wr it e
automatically erases the location and writes the new
data (erase before write). Writing to program memory
will cease oper ation until the write is complete. The p ro-
gram memory cannot be accessed during the write,
therefore code c ann ot exe cut e . D uring t he w rite op era-
tion, the oscillator continues to clock the peripherals,
and the ref ore the y co ntinue to oper ate. Interrupt e v ents
will be detected and essentially “queued” until the write
is completed. When the write completes, the next
instruct ion in the pip eline is e x ecu ted and the br anch to
the interrupt vector address will occur.
When interfacing to the program memory block, the
EEDATH:EEDATA registers form a two byte word,
which holds the 14-bit data for read/write. The
EEADRH:EEADR registers form a two byte word,
which holds the 13-bit address of the EEPROM loca-
tion bein g acce ssed. Thes e de vices c an hav e up to 8K
words of program EEPROM with an address range
from 0h to 3FFFh. The unused upper bits in both the
EEDATH and EEDATA registers all read as “0’s ”.
The v alue written to progr am memory does not need to
be a valid instruction. Therefore, up to 14-bit numbers
can be stored in memory for use as calibration param-
eters, serial numbers, packed 7-bit ASCII, etc. Execut-
ing a program memory location containing data that
forms an invalid instruction results in a NOP.
4.1 EEADR
The addres s registers can addre ss up to a maxim um of
256 bytes of data EEPROM or up to a maximum of 8K
words of p rogram FLASH.
When selecting a program address value, the MSByte
of the address is written to the EEADRH register and
the LSByte is written to the EEADR register. When
selecting a data address value, only the LSByte of the
address is written to the EEADR register.
On the PIC16F873/874 devices with 128 bytes of
EEPROM, the MSbit of the EEADR must always be
cleared to prevent inadvertent access to the wrong
locatio n. This als o applies to the progr am memory. The
upper MSbits of EEADRH must always be clear.
4.2 EECON1 and EECON2 Registers
EECON1 is the control register for memory accesses.
EECON2 is not a physical register. Reading EECON2
will read all '0's. The EECON2 register is used
exclusively in the memory write sequence.
Control bit EEPGD determines if the access will be a
program or a data memory access. When clear, any
subsequent operations will operate on the data mem-
ory. When set, any subseq uen t oper ations will o pera te
on the program memory.
Control bits RD and WR initiate read and write opera-
tions, respectively. These bits cannot be cleared, only
set, in software. They are cleared in hardware at the
completion of the read or write operation. The inability
to clear the WR bit in software prevents the accidental
or premature termination of a write operation.
The WREN bit, when set, will allow a write operation.
On po wer-up , the W REN bit is clea r . The WRER R bit is
set when a write operation is interrupted by a MCLR
reset or a WDT ti me-out rese t during n ormal oper atio n.
In these situations, following reset, the user can check
the WRERR bit and rewrite the location. The value of
the data and address registers and the EEPGD bit
remains unchanged.
Interrupt flag b it EEIF, in the PI R2 re gis ter, is set whe n
write is complete. It must be cleared in software.

4.3 Reading the Data EEPROM Memory
To read a data memory location, t he user must write the
address to t he EEADR register, clear the EEPGD con-
trol bit (EECON1<7>) and then set control bit RD
(EECON1<0>). The data is available in the very next
instruction cycle of the EEDATA register, therefore it
can be read by the next instruction. EEDATA will hold
this value until another read operation or until it is writ-
ten to by the user (during a write operation).

4.4 Writing to the Data EEPROM Memory
To write an EEPROM data location, the address must
first be written to the EEADR regist er and the data writ-
ten to the EEDATA register. Then the sequence in
Example 4-2 mus t be followed to initiate the write cycle .
EXAMPLE 4-2: DATA EEPROM WRITE
The write will not initiate if the above sequence is not
exactly followed (write 55h to EECON2, write AAh to
EECON2, then set WR bit) for each byte. It is strongly
recommended that interrupts be disabled during this
code segment.
Additionally, the WREN bit in EECON1 must be set to
enable writes. This mechanism prevents accidental
writes to data EEPROM due to unexpected code exe-
cution (i.e., runaway programs). The WREN bit should
be kept clear at all times, except when updating the
EEPROM. The WREN bit is not cleared by hardware
After a write sequence has been initiated, clearing the
WREN bit will not aff ect the current write cycle. The WR
bit will be inhibit ed from being set unles s the WREN bit
is set. The WREN b it must be set on a previ ous instruc-
tion. Both WR and WREN cannot be s et wi th t he same
instruction.
At the completion of the write cycle, the WR bit is
cleared in hardw are and the EEPR OM Write Complete
Interrupt Flag bi t (EEIF) is set. EEIF m ust be cleare d by
software.

4.5 Reading the FLASH Program Memory
A prog ram memory location ma y be read b y writing tw o
bytes of the address to the EEADR and EEADRH reg-
isters, setting the EEPGD control bit (EECON1<7>)
and then setting control bit RD (EECON1<0>). Once
the read control bit is set, the microcontroller will use
the next two instruction cycles to read the data. The
data is available in the EEDATA and EEDATH registers
after the second NOP instruction. Therefore, it can be
read as two bytes in the following instructions. The
EED ATA and EED ATH regis ters will hol d this v alue u ntil
another rea d operation or until it is written to b y the user
(during a write operation).

4.6 Writing to the FLASH Program
Memory
A word of the FLASH program memory may only be
written to if the word is in a non-code protected seg-
ment of memory and the WRT configuration bit is set.
To write a FLASH program location, the first two bytes
of the address must be written to the EEADR and
EEADRH registers and two bytes of the data to the
EEDATA and EEDATH registers, set the EEPGD con-
trol bit (EECON1<7>), and then set control bit WR
(EECON1<1 >). The s equence in Examp le 4-4 must be
followed to initiate a write to program memory.
The microcontroller will then halt internal operations
during the next two instruction cycles for the TPEW
(parameter D133) in which the write takes place. This
is not SLEEP mode, as the clocks and peripherals will
continue to run. Therefore, the two instructions follow-
ing the “BSF EECON, WR” should be NOP instructions.
After the write cycle, the microcontroller will resume
operation with the 3rd instruction after the EECON1
write instruction.
EXAMPLE 4-4: FLASH PROGRAM WRITE
4.7 Write Verify
Depending on the application, good progra mming prac-
tice may dictate that the value written to the memory
should be verified against the original value. This
should be used in applications where excessive writes
can stress bits near the specification limit.
Generally a write failure will be a bit which was written
as a '1', but reads back as a '0' (due to leakage off the
bit).

4.8 Protection Against Spurious Write
4.8.1 EEPROM DATA MEMORY
There are conditions when the device may not want to
write to the data EEPROM memory. To protect against
spurious EEPROM writes, various mechanisms have
been built-in. On power-up, the WREN bit is cleared.
Also, the Power-up Timer (72 ms duration) prevents
EEPROM write.
The write i nit iate sequence and the WR EN bi t tog eth er
help prevent an accidental write during brown-out,
power gl itch, or software malf unction.
4.8.2 PROGRAM FL ASH MEMORY
To protect against spurious writes to FLASH program
memory, the WRT bit in the configuration word may be
programmed to ‘0’ to prevent writes. The write initiate
sequence must also be followed. WRT and the config-
ura tion word can not be prog rammed b y user co de, only
through the use of an external programmer.
4.9 Operation during Code Protect
Each repr og ramm able memory bloc k has its o wn cod e
protect mechanism. External Read and Write opera-
tions are disabled if either of these mechanisms are
enabled.
4.9.1 DATA EEPROM MEMORY
The mic rocontrol ler itself can bot h read and write to the
internal Data EEPROM, regardless of the state of the
code protect configuration bit.
4.9.2 PROGRAM FLASH MEMORY
The microcontroller can read and execute instructions
out of the in ternal FLASH progr am memory, regardless
of the state of the c ode protect configuration bits . H o w-
e ver the WRT confi guration bit and the code protect bits
have different effects on writing to program memory.
Table 4-1 shows the various configurations and status
of reads and w rites. To er ase the WRT or code protec-
tion bits in the configuration word requires that the
device be fully erased.

5.0 T IMER0 MODULE
The Tim er0 module timer/count er has the f ollo wing f ea-
tures:
• 8-bit timer/counter
• Readable and writable
• 8-bit softwa re programmable prescaler
• Internal or external clock select
• Interrupt on overflow from FFh to 00h
• Edge select for external clock
Figure 5-1 is a block diagram of the Timer0 module and
the p r e s cal e r s ha red with the WDT.
Additional information on the Timer0 module is available
in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manual (DS33023).
Timer mode is selected by clearing bit T0CS
(OPTION_REG<5>). In timer mode, the Timer0 mod-
ule wi ll i nc rem ent eve ry inst ruct ion cy cl e (w it hou t pre s-
caler). If the TMR0 register is written, the increment is
inhibited for the following two instruction cycles. The
use r can work around this by writing an adjusted value
to the TMR0 register.
Counter mode is selected by setting bit T0CS
(OPTION_REG<5>). In counter mode, Timer0 will
increment either on every rising or falling edge of pin
RA4/T0CKI. The incrementing edge is determined by
the Timer0 Source Edge Select bit T0SE
(OPTION_REG<4>). Clearing bit T0SE selects the ris-
ing edge. Restrictions on the external clock input are
dis c ussed in de tail in Section 5. 2.
The prescaler is mutually exclusively shared between
the Timer0 module and the watchdog timer. The pres-
caler is not re adab le o r writab le . Sec tion 5.3 deta ils th e
oper at ion of the presca le r.
5.1 Timer0 Interrupt
The TMR0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0 reg-
ister ove rflows fr om FFh to 00 h. This overf low sets bit
T0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be masked by
clearing bit T0IE (INTCON<5>). Bit T0IF must be
cleared in s oftwa re b y th e Tim er0 mo dule interrupt s er-
vice routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The
TMR0 interrupt cannot awaken the processor from
SLEEP since the timer is shut off during SLEEP.

5.2 Using Timer0 with an External Clock
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 accom-
plishe d by sam pling the presca ler output on th e Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks. 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.
5.3 Prescaler
There is only one prescaler available, which is mutually
exclusively shared between the Timer0 module and the
watchdog timer. A prescaler assignment for the Timer0
module means that there is no prescaler for the watch-
dog timer , and vi ce-versa. This prescaler is not readab le
or writable (see Figure 5-1).
The PSA and PS2:PS0 bits (OPTION_REG<3:0>) deter-
mine 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.) wi ll 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.
REGISTER 5-1: OPTION_REG REGISTER
Note: Writing to TMR0, when the prescaler is
assigned to Timer0, will clear the prescaler
count, but will not change the prescaler
assignment.

6.0 T IMER1 MODULE
The T ime r1 m od ule is a 1 6-bi t ti mer/count er c ons is tin g
of two 8-bit registers (TMR1H and TMR1L), which are
readable and writable. The TMR1 Register pair
(TMR1H:TMR1L) increments from 0000h to FFFFh
and rolls ov er to 0000h. The TMR1 Interrupt, if enable d,
is generated on overflow, which is latched in interrupt
flag bit TMR1IF (PIR1<0>). This interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing TMR1 interrupt
enable bit TMR1IE (PIE1<0>).
Timer1 can operate in one of two modes:
•As a timer
•As a counter
The operating mode is determined by the clock select
bit, TMR1CS (T1CON<1>).
In timer mode, Timer1 increments every instruction
cycle. In coun ter mo de, it in creme nts on every ri sing
edge of the external clock input.
Timer1 can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing
control bit TMR 1 ON (T1C O N<0>).
Timer1 a lso has an in ternal “reset input ”. This reset can
be generated by either of the two CCP modules
(Section 8.0). Register 6-1 shows the Timer1 control
register.
When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is
set), the RC1/T1OSI/CCP2 and RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI
pins become inputs. That is, the TRISC<1:0> value is
ignored.
Additional infor mation on timer modules is available in

6.1 Timer1 Operation in Timer Mode
Timer mode is selected by clearing the TMR1CS
(T1CON<1>) bit. In this mode, the input clock to the
timer is FOSC/4. The synchronize control bit T1SYNC
(T1CON<2>) has no effect since the internal clock is
always in sync.
6.2 Timer1 Counter Operation
Timer1 may operate in asynchronous or usynchronous
mode depnding on the setting of the TMR1CS bit.
When Timer1 is being incremented via an external
source, increments occur on a rising edge. After
Timer1 is enabled in counter mode, the module must
first have a falling edge before the counter begins to
increment.

6.3 Timer1 Operation in Synchronized
Counter Mode
Counter mode is selected by setting bit TMR1CS. In
this mod e, the time r increment s on ev ery rising edge of

T1OSCE N is se t, or on pi n RC0/ T1OSO/T 1CKI , when
bit T1OSCEN is cleared.
If T1SYNC is cleared, then the external clock input is
synchronized with internal phase clocks. The synchro-
nization is done after the prescaler stage. The pres-
caler stage is an asynchronous ripple-counter.
In this configuration, during SLEEP mode, Timer1 will
not increment even if the external clock is present,
since the synchronization circuit is shut off. The pres-
caler however wi ll cont inue t o incr ement.

6.4 Timer1 Operation in Asynchronous
Counter Mode
If control bit T1SYNC (T1CON<2>) is set, the external
clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to
increment asynchronous to the internal phase clocks.
The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can
generate an interrupt on overflow, which will wake-up
the processor. However, special precautions in soft-
ware are need ed to read/write the timer (Section 6.4.1).
In asynchronous counter mode, Timer1 can not be used
as a time-base for capture or compare operations.
6.4.1 READING AND WRITING TIMER1 IN
ASYNCHRONOUS COUNTER MODE
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L while the timer is running
from an external asynchronous clock will guarantee a
valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the
user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer
in two 8-bit values itself poses certain problems, since
the timer may overflow between the reads.
For writes, it is r ecommen ded t hat the u se r s im pl y sto p
the timer and write the desired values. A write conten-
tion may occur by writing to the timer registers, while
the register is incrementing. This may produce an
unpredictable value in the timer register.
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care. Exam ples
12-2 and 12-3 in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Fam-
ily Reference Manual (DS33023) show how to read and
write Timer1 when it is running in asynchronous mode .
6.5 Timer1 Oscillator
A crystal oscillator circuit is built-in between pins T1OSI
(input) and T1OSO (amplifier output). It is enabled by
setting control b it T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>). The osc illa-
tor is a low power oscillator rated up to 200 kHz. It will
continue to run during SLEEP. It is primarily intended
for use with a 32 kHz crystal. Table 6-1 shows the
capacitor selection for the Timer1 oscillator.
The Timer1 oscillator is identical to the LP oscillator.
The user must provide a software time delay to ensure
proper oscillator start-up.
TABLE 6-1: CAPACITOR SELECTION FOR
THE TIMER1 OSCILLATOR
6.6 Resetting Timer1 using a CCP Trigger
Output
If the CCP1 or CCP2 module is configured in compare
mode to generate a “special event trigger”
(CCP1M3:CCP1M0 = 1011), this signal will reset
Timer1.
Timer1 must be configured for either timer or synchro-
niz ed counter m ode to tak e adv antage of th is f eature . If
Timer1 is running in asynchronous counter mode, this
reset operation may not work.
In the e v ent that a write to Timer1 coi ncides with a spe-
cial event trigger from CCP1 or CCP2, the write will
take precedence.
In this mode of operation, the CCPRxH:CCPRxL regis-
ter pair effectively becomes the period register for
Timer1.
6.7 Resetting of Timer1 Register Pair

TMR1H an d TMR 1 L reg isters are not re se t t o 00h on a

T1CON regist er is reset t o 00h on a Power-on Reset or
a Brown-out Reset, which shuts off the timer and
leaves a 1:1 prescale. In all other resets, the register is
unaffected.
6.8 Timer1 Prescaler
The prescaler counter is cleared on writes to the
TMR1H or TMR1L registers.

7.0 T IMER2 MODULE
Timer2 is an 8-bit timer with a prescaler and a
postscaler. It can be used as the PWM time-base for
the PWM mo de of the CCP m od ule (s). The T MR2 re g-
ister is readable and writable, and is cleared on any
device res et.
The input clock (FOSC/4) has a prescale option of 1:1,
1:4 or 1:16, selected by control bits
T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON<1: 0>).
The Timer2 module has an 8-bit period register PR2.
Timer2 increments from 00h until it matches PR2 and
then resets to 00h on the next increment cycle. PR2 is
a readab le and writable register . The PR2 register is ini-
tialized to FFh upon reset.
The match output of TMR2 goes through a 4-bit
postscaler (which gives a 1:1 to 1:16 scaling inclusive)
to generate a TMR2 interrupt (latched in flag bit
TMR2IF, (PIR1<1>)).
Timer2 can be s hut off by clearing control bit TMR 2ON
(T2CON<2>) to minimize powe r cons umpti on.
Register 7-1 shows the Timer2 control register.
Additional infor mation on timer modules is available in
the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manu al (DS330 23).
7.1 Timer2 Prescaler and Postscaler
The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared
when any of the following occurs:
• a write to the TMR2 register
• a write to the T2CON register
• any device reset (POR, MCLR reset, WDT reset
or BOR)
TMR2 is not cleared when T2CON is written.
7.2 Output of TMR2
The outpu t of TMR2 (bef ore th e postscaler) i s fed t o the
SSPort module, which optionally uses it to generate
shift clock.

8.0 CAPTURE/COMPARE/PWM
MODULES
Each Capture/Compare/PWM (CCP) module contains
a 16-bit register which can operate as a:
• 16-bit Capture register
• 16-bit Compare register
• PWM master/slave Duty Cycle register
Both the CCP1 and CCP2 modules are identical in
oper ation, with th e e xception be ing the op eration of the
special event trigger. Table 8-1 and Table 8-2 show the
resources and interactions of the CCP module(s). In
the following sections, the operation of a CCP module
is described with respect to CCP1. CCP2 operates the
same as CCP1, except where noted.
CCP1 Module:
Capture/Compare/PWM Register1 (CCPR1) is com-
prised of two 8-bit registers: CCPR1L (low byte) and
CCPR1H (high byte). The CCP1CON register controls
the oper ation of CCP1. Th e special e vent trigger is gen-
erated by a compare mat ch and wil l reset T i mer1.
CCP2 Module:
Capture/Compare/PWM Register1 (CCPR2) is com-
prised of two 8-bit registers: CCPR2L (low byte) and
CCPR2H (high byte). The CCP2CON register controls
the oper ation of CCP2. The special e vent trigger is gen-
erated by a compare match and will reset Timer1 and
start an A/D conversion (if the A/D module is enabled).
Additional infor mation on CCP modules is available in
the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manu al (DS33023) and in Appl ication Note 594, “Usin g
the CCP Modules” (DS00594).

8.1 Captu re Mod e
In Capture mode, CCPR1H:CCPR1L captures the
16-bit v alue of th e TMR1 register wh en an ev ent oc curs
on pin RC2/CCP1. An event is defined as:
• Every falling edge
• Every rising edge
• Every 4th rising edge
• Every 16th rising edge
An event is selected by control bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0
(CCP1CON<3:0>). When a capture is ma de, the inter-
rupt request flag bit CCP1IF (PIR1<2>) is set. The
interrupt flag must be cleared in software. If another
capture occurs before the value in register CCPR1 is
read, the old captured value will be lost.
8.1.1 CCP PIN CONFIGURATION
In Captu re m ode, the RC2/CCP1 p in s hou ld b e co nfi g-
ured as an input by setting the TRISC<2> bit.
FIGURE 8-1: CAPTURE MODE OP ERATION
BLOC K DIAGRAM
8.1.2 TIMER1 MODE SELECTION
Timer1 must be running in timer mode or synchronized
counter mode for the CCP module to use the capture
feature. In asynchronous counter mode, the capture
operation may not work.
8.1.3 SOFTWARE INTERRUPT
When the capture mode is changed, a false capture
interrupt may be generated. The user should keep bit
CCP1IE (PIE1<2>) clear to avoid false interrupts and
should clear the flag bit CCP1IF following any such
change in operating mode.
8.1.4 CCP PRESCALER
There are four prescaler settings, specified by bits
CCP1M3:CCP1M0. Whenever the CCP module is
turned off, or the CCP module is not in capture mode,
the prescaler counter is cleared. Any reset will clear the
prescaler counter.
Switching from one capture prescaler to another may
generate an interrupt. Also, the prescaler counter will
not be cleared, therefore, the first capture may be from
a non-zero prescaler. Example 8-1 shows the recom-
mended method for switching between capture pres-
calers. This example also clears the prescaler counter
and will not generate the “false” interrupt.

8.2 Compare Mode
In Compare mode, the 16-bit CCPR1 register value is
constantly compared against the TMR1 register pair
value. Wh en a match occur s, the RC2/ CCP1 pin i s :
• Driven high
•Driven low
• Remains unchanged
The action on the pin is based on the value of control
bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0 (CCP1CON<3:0>). At the
same time, interrupt flag bit CCP1IF is set.
FIGURE 8-2: COMPARE MODE OPERATION
BLOCK DIAGRAM
8.2.1 CCP PIN CONFIGURATION
The user must configure the RC2/CCP1 pin as an out-
put by clearing the TRISC<2> bit.
8.2.2 TIMER1 MODE SELECTION
Timer1 must be running in Timer mode or Synchro-
nized Counter mode if the CCP module is using the
compare feature. In Asynchronous Counter mode, the
compare operation may not work.
8.2.3 SOFTWARE INTERRUPT MODE
When Generate S oftware Interrupt mode is chosen, the
CCP1 pin is not affected. The CCPIF bit is set causing
a CCP interrupt (if enabled).
8.2.4 SPECIAL EVENT TRIGGER
In this mod e, an i nternal hardw a re trigger is g ener ated,
which may be used to initiate an action.
The special event trigger output of CCP1 resets the
TMR1 register pair. This allows the CCPR1 register to
eff e ctiv el y be a 16-b it prog ram mab le pe riod registe r f or
Timer1.
The special event trigger output of CCP2 resets the
TMR1 register pair and starts an A/D conversion (if the
A/D module is enabled).
8.3 PWM Mode (PWM)
In pulse width modulation mode, the CCPx pin pro-
duces up to a 10-bit resolution PWM output. Since the
CCP1 pin is multipl exed with the POR TC data latch, the
TRISC<2> bit must be cleared to make the CCP1 pin
an output.
Figure 8-3 shows a simplified block diagram of the CCP
module in PWM mode.
F or a step-b y-step procedure on ho w to set up the CCP
module for PWM operation, see Section 8.3.3.

A PWM output (Figure 8-4) has a time-base (period)
and a time that the output stays high (duty cycle). The
frequency of the PWM is the inverse of the period
(1/period).
FIGURE 8-4: PWM OUTPUT
8.3.1 PWM PERIOD
The PWM period is specified by writing to the PR2 reg-
ister. The PWM period can be calculated using the fol-
lowing formula:
PWM period = [(PR2) + 1] • 4 • TOSC •
(TMR2 prescale value)
PWM frequency is defined as 1 / [PWM period].
When TMR 2 is equal to PR2, th e follo wing three e v ents
occur on the next incremen t cycle:
• TMR2 is cl eare d
• The CCP1 pin is set (exception: if PWM duty
cycl e = 0%, the CCP1 pin will not be set)
• The PWM duty cycl e is latche d from CCPR1L i nto
CCPR1H
8.3.2 PWM DUTY CYCLE
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing to the
CCPR1L register and to the CCP1CON<5:4> bits. Up
to 10- bit resol uti on is available. The C CPR1 L con tai ns
the ei ght MSbs and the CCP 1CON<5:4 > contai ns the
two LSbs. This 10-bit value is represented by
CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>. The following equation is
used to calculate the PWM duty cycle in time:
PWM duty cycle = (CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>) •
Tosc • (TMR2 prescale value)
CCPR1L and C CP1CON <5:4> c an be writ ten to a t an y
time, but the duty cycle value is not latched into
CCPR1H until after a match between PR2 and TMR2
occurs (i.e., the period is complete). In PWM mode,
CCPR1H is a read-only register.
The CCPR1H register and a 2-bit internal latch are
used to d ouble buffer the PWM du ty cyc le. This doub l e
buffering is essential for glitchless PWM operation.
When the CCPR1H and 2-bit latch match TMR2 con-
catenated with an internal 2-bit Q clock or 2 bits of the
TMR2 prescaler, the CCP1 pin is cleared.
Maximum PWM re solution (bits) for a given PW M
frequency:
8.3.3 SET-UP FOR PWM OPERATION
The followin g steps sh ould be ta ken wh en confi guring
the CCP module for PWM operation:
1. Set the PWM period by writing to the PR2 register.
2. Set the PWM duty cycle by writing to the
CCPR1L register and CCP1CON<5:4> bits.
3. Make the CCP1 pin an output by clearing the
TRISC<2> bit.
4. Set the TMR2 prescale v alue and enable Timer2
by writi ng to T2CON.
5. Con figure the C CP1 module f or PWM o peratio n.
Note: The Tim er2 p os tsc al er (see Section 8.1) is
not us ed in th e det ermi nati on of the PWM
frequenc y. The pos tscaler could be used to
have a servo update rate at a different fre-
quency than the PWM output.

9.0 MASTER SYNCHRONOUS
SERIAL POR T (MSSP)
MODULE
The Master Synchronous Serial P ort (MSSP) module is
a serial interface useful for communicating with other
peripher al or mi crocontro ller devices. These periphera l
devices may be serial EEPROMs, shift registers, dis-
play drivers, A/D converters, etc. The MSSP module
can operate in one of two mode s:
• Serial Pe ripheral Interface (SPI)
• Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C)
Figure 9-1 shows a block diagram for the SPI mode,
while Figure 9-5 and Figure 9-9 show the block dia-
grams for the two different I2C modes of operation.

9.1 SPI Mode
The SPI mode allows 8 bits of data to be synchronousl y
transmitted and received simultaneously. All four
modes of SP I are supported. To accomplish communi-
cation, typically three pins are used:
• Serial Data Out (SDO)
• Serial Data In (SDI)
• Serial Clock (SCK)
Additionally, a fourth pin may be used when in a slave
mode of operation:
•Slave Select (SS
)
When initializing the SPI, several options need to be
specif ied. This is don e by prog ramming the ap propriate
control bits (SSPCON<5:0> and SSPSTAT<7:6>).
These control bits allow the following to be specified:
• Master Mode (SCK is the clock output)
• Slave Mode (SCK is the clock input)
• Clock Polarity (Idle state of SCK)
• Data input sample phase
(middle or end of data output time)
• Clock edge
(output data on rising/falling edge of SCK)
• Clock Rate (Master mode only)
• Slave Sel ect Mode (S lave mode only)
Figure 9-4 show s the b lo ck d iagr am of the MSSP mo d-
ule when in SPI mode .
FIGURE 9-1: MSSP BLOCK DIAGRAM
(SPI MODE)
To enable the serial port, MSSP Enable bit, SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>) m ust be set. To reset or recon figure SPI
mode, clear bit SSPEN, re-initialize the SSPCON reg-
isters, and then set bit SSPEN. This configures the
SDI, SDO , SCK an d SS pins a s serial port pins . F or the
pins to behave as the serial port function, some must
have their data direction bits (in the TRIS register)
appropriately programmed. That is:
• SDI is au tom ati ca lly controlle d by the SPI module
• SDO must have TRISC<5> cleared
• SCK (Master mode) must have TRISC<3>
cleared
• SCK (Sla ve mode) must ha ve TRISC<3> set
•SS
must have TRISA<5> set
Any s erial port func tion that is n ot desire d may be ov er-
ridden by programming the corresponding data direc-
tion (TRIS) register to the opposite value.

9.1.1 MASTER MODE
The master can initiate the data transfer at any time
because it controls the SCK. The master determines
when the slave (Processor 2, Figure 9-5) is to broad-
cast data by the software protocol.
In master mode, the data is transmitted/received as
soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI
module is only going to receive, the SDO output could
be disabled (programmed as an input). The SSPSR
register will conti nue to shif t in the signa l present o n the
SDI pin at the programmed clock rate. As each byte is
received, it will be loaded into the SSPBUF register as
if a normal received byte (interrupts and status bits
appropriately set). This could be useful in receiver
applications as a “line activity monitor”.
The cloc k polarity is selected b y appropriately progr am-
ming bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). This then would give
waveforms for SPI communication as shown in
Figure 9-6, Figure 9-8 and Figure 9-9 where the MSb is
tran smitted fi rst. In maste r mode, the SPI cloc k rate (b it
rate) is user programmable to be one of the following:
•F
OSC/4 (or TCY)
•F
OSC/16 (or 4 • TCY)
•FOSC/64 (or 16 • TCY)
• Timer2 output/2
This al lows a maxi mum b it cloc k freq uency (at 20 MHz)
of 5.0 MHz.
Figure 9-6 shows the waveforms for Master mode.
When CKE = 1, the SDO data is valid before there is a
clock edge on SCK. The change of the input sample is
shown based on the state of the SMP bit. The time
when the SSPBUF is loaded with the received data is
shown.

9.1.2 SLAVE MODE
In slave mode, the data is transmitted and received as
the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the
last bit is lat ched, the in terrupt flag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>)
is set.
While in slave mode, the external clock is supplied by
the e x ternal cloc k sour ce o n the SCK pin. This e xt ernal
clock must meet the minimum high and low times as
specified in the electrical specifications.
While in sleep mode, the slave can transmit/receive
data. When a byte is received, the device will wake-up
from sleep.

Note: When the SPI module is in Slave Mode
with SS pin control enabled, (SSP-

reset if the SS pin is set to VDD.

9.2 MSSP I2C Operation
The MSSP module in I2C mode fully implements all
master and slave functions (including general call sup-
port) and provides interrupts-on-start and stop bits in
hardware to determine a free bus (multi-master func-
tion). The MSSP module implements the standard
mode specifications, as well as 7-bit and 10-bit
addressing.
Refer to Application Note AN578,
"Use of the SSP
Module in the I
2
C Multi-Master Environment."
A "glitch" filter is on the SCL and SD A pins when the pin
is an in pu t. Th is filter o perates in both the 10 0 k Hz an d
400 kHz modes . In the 100 kHz mode , when these pins
are an ou tput, there is a s lew ra te control of the pin that
is independant of device frequency.
FIGURE 9-5: I2C SLAVE MODE BLOCK
DIAGRAM
Two pi ns are used f or data transfer . The se ar e t he SCL
pin, which is the clock, and the SDA pin, which is the
data. The SDA and SCL pins are automatically config-
ured when the I2C mode is enabled. The SSP module
functions are enabled by setting SSP Enable bit
SSPEN (SSPCON<5>).
The MSSP module has six registers for I2C operation.
They are the:
• SSP Control Register (SSPCON)
• SSP Control Register2 (SSPCON2)
• SSP Status Register (SSPSTAT)
• Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF)
• SSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly acces-
sible
• SSP Address Register (SSPADD)
The SSPCON register allows control of the I2C opera-
tion. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON<3:0>) allow
one of the following I2C modes t o be selected:
•I
2C Slave mode (7-bit address)
•I
2C Slave mode (10-bit address)
•I
2C Master mode, clock = OSC/4 (SSPADD +1)
Before sele cting any I2C mode, the SCL an d SDA pins
must be programmed to inputs by setting the appropri-
ate TRIS bits. Selecting an I2C mode, by setting the
SSPEN bit, enables the SCL and SDA pins to be used
as the clock and data lines in I2C mode.
The CKE bit (SSPSTAT<6:7>) sets the levels of the
SDA and SCL pins in either master or slave mode.
When CKE = 1, the levels will conform to the SMBUS
specif ication. Whe n CKE = 0, the le v els will c onf orm to
the I2C specification.

The SSPSTAT register gives the status of the data
transfer. This information includes detection of a
START (S) or STOP (P) bit, specifies if the received
by te was data or ad dress, if the ne xt byt e is the com ple-
tion of 10-bit address, and if this will be a read or write
data trans fer.
SSPBUF is the register to which the transfer data is
written to or read from. The SSPSR register shifts the
data in or out of the device. In receive operations, the
SSPBUF and SSPSR create a doubled buffered
receiv e r. This allo w s rece ption o f the next b yte to b egin
before reading the last byte of received data. When the
complete byte is received, it is transferred to the
SSPBUF register and flag bit SSPIF is set. If another
complete byte is received before the SSPBUF register
is read, a receiver overflow has occurred and bit
SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) is set and the byte in the
SSPSR is lost.
The SSPADD register holds the slav e addre ss. In 1 0-bit
mode, the user needs to write the high byte of the
address (1111 0 A9 A8 0). Following the high byte
address match, the low byte of the address needs to be
loaded (A7:A0 ).
9.2.1 SLAVE MODE
In slave mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be config-
ured as inputs. The MSSP module will override the
input state with the output data when required (slave-
transmitter).
When an address is matched or the data transfer after
an address match is received, the hardware automati-
cally will generate the acknowledge (ACK) pulse, and
then load the SSPBUF regi st er with the recei ved value
currently in the SSPSR register.
There are certain conditions that will cause the MSSP
module not to give this ACK pulse. These are if either
(or both):
a) The buffer full bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) was set
before t he transfer was received.
b) The o verfl ow bit SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) was set
before t he transfer was received.
If the BF bit is set, the SSPSR register value is not
loaded in to the SSPBUF, but bit SSPIF and SSPO V are
set. Table 9-2 shows what h appens wh e n a data trans-
fer byte is received, given the status of bits BF and
SSPOV. The shaded cells show the condition where
user sof tw are did not pro perly clear the overflow c ondi-
tion. Fl ag bit B F is cleare d b y reading the SSPB UF reg-
ister, while bit SSPOV is cleared through software.
The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and
low time for proper operation. The high and low times
of the I2C specification, as well as the requirement of
the MSSP module, is shown in timing parameter #100
and parameter #101 of the electrical specifications.
9.2.1.1 ADDRESSING
Once the MSSP module has been enabled, it waits for
a START cond iti on to oc cur. Following the START co n-
dition, th e 8-bits are shifted in to the SSPSR register . All
incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the
clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is
compared to the value of the SSPADD register. The
address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth
clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF
and SSPOV bits are clear, the fo llowing events occur:
a) The SSPSR register value is loaded into the
SSPBUF register on the falling edge of the 8th
SCL pulse.
b) The b uff e r full bi t, BF, is se t on the fal ling edg e of
the 8th SCL pulse.
c) An ACK pulse is generated.
d) SSP interrupt flag bit, SSPIF (PIR1<3>), is set
(interrupt is generated if enabled) on the falling
edge of the 9th SCL pulse.
In 10-bit address mode, two address bytes need to be
received by the slave. The five Most Significant bits
(MSbs) of the first address byte sp ecify if this is a 10-bit
address. Bit R/W (SSPSTAT<2>) must specify a write
so the slave device will receive the second address
byte. For a 10-bit address the first byte would equal
‘1111 0 A9 A8 0’, where A9 and A8 are the tw o MSbs
of the address. The sequence of events for a 10-bit
address is as f ollo ws, with steps 7- 9 f or s lav e-tr ansmit-
ter:
1. Receive first (high) byte of Address (bits SSPIF,
BF and UA (SSPSTAT<1>) are set).
2. Update the SSPADD register with the second
(low) byte of Address (clears bit UA and
releases the SCL line).
3. Read the SSPBUF register (clears bit BF) and
clear flag bit SSPIF.

9.2.1.2 SLAVE RECE PTION
When the R/W bit of the address byte is clear and an
address match occurs, the R/W bit of the SSPSTAT
register is clea red. The re ce ive d ad dress is lo aded in to
the SSPBUF register.
When the address byte overflow condition exists, then
no ac knowled ge (ACK) pulse is given. An overflow con-
dition is defined as either bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) is set
or bit SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) is set.
An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer
by te. Fla g bit SSPIF (PI R1<3>) m ust be cleared in soft-
ware. The SSPSTAT register is used to determine the
status of the received byte.
TABLE 9-2 DATA TRANSFER RECEIVED BYTE ACTIONS
9.2.1.3 SLAVE TRANSMISSION
When the R/W bi t of the i ncoming address by te is set
and an address match occurs, the R/W bit of the
SSPSTAT register is set. The received address is
loaded into the SSPBUF register. The ACK pulse will
be sent on the ninth bit, and the SCL pin is held low.
The transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF
register , which also loads the SSPSR register . Then the
SCL pin should be enabled by setting bit CKP (SSP-
CON<4>). The master must monitor the SCL pin prior
to asserting another clock pulse. The slave devices
may be hold ing off th e master by s tretchi ng the clo ck.
The eight dat a bits are sh ifted out on the f allin g edge of
the SCL input. Th is ensur es that th e SD A signal is v alid
during the SCL high time (Figure 9-7).
An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer
byte. The SSPIF flag bit must be cleared in software
and the SSPSTAT register is used to determine the sta-
tus of the byte transfer . Th e SSPIF fla g b it i s s et on th e
falling edge of the ninth clock pulse.
As a slave-transmitter, the ACK pulse from the master
receiver is latched on the rising edge of the ninth SCL
input pulse. If the SDA line is high (not ACK), then the
data transf er is c om ple te . W hen the not ACK is latched
by the slave, the slave logic is reset and the slave then
monitors for another occ urrence of the START bit. If the
SDA line was low (ACK), the transmit data must be
loaded into the SSPBUF register, which also loads the
SSPSR register. Then the SCL pin should be enabled
by setting the CKP bit.
FIGURE 9-6: I2C WAVEFORMS FOR RECEPTION (7-BIT ADDRESS)
Note: The SSPBUF will be loaded if the SSPOV
bit is set and the BF flag is cleared. If a
read of the SSPBUF was performed, but
the user did not clear the state of the
SSPOV bit before the next receive
occurred, the ACK is not sent and th e SSP-
BUF is updated.

FIGURE 9-7: I2C WAVEFORMS FOR TRANSMISSION (7-BIT ADDRESS)
9.2.2 GENERAL CALL ADDRESS SUPPORT
The addressing procedure for the I2C bus is such that
the first byte after the START condition usually deter-
mines which device will be the slave addressed by the
master. The exception is the general call address,
which can address all devices. When this address is
used, all devices should, in theory, respond with an
acknowledge.
The general call address is one of eight addresses
reserved for specific purposes by the I2C protocol. It
consists of all 0’s with R/W = 0
The general call address is recognized when the Gen-
eral Ca ll E nable bit (GCEN) is enabled (SSPCON2<7>
is set). Following a start-bit detect, 8-bits are shifted
into SSPSR and the address is compared against
SSPADD. It is also compared to the general call
address and fixed in hardware.
If the general call address matches, the SSPSR is
transferred to the SSPBUF, the BF flag is set (eighth
bit), and on the fa lling edge of th e ninth bit (A CK bit), the
SSPIF flag is set.
When the i nte rrupt is se rviced, the so urc e for the inter-
rupt can be checked by reading the contents of the
SSPBUF to determine if the address was device spe-
cific or a general call address.
In 10-bit mode, the SSPADD is required to be updated
f or the se cond half of the addres s to match, a nd the U A
bit is set (SSPSTAT<1>). If the general call address is
sampled when GCEN is set while the slave is config-
ured in 10-bit address mode, then the second half of
the address is not nece ss ary, the U A bit w ill no t be se t,
and the slave will begin receiving data after the
acknowledge (Figure 9-8).

9.2.5 MASTER MODE
Master mode of operation is supported by interrupt
generation on the detection of the START and STOP
conditions. The STOP (P) and START (S) bits are
cleared from a reset or when the MSSP module is dis-
abled. Control of the I2C bus may be TACKEN when the
P bit is set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits
clear.
In master mode, the SCL and SDA lines are manipu-
lated b y the MSSP hardware .
The following events will cause the SSP Interrupt Flag
bit, SSPIF, to be set (SSP Interrupt if enabled):
• START condition
• STOP condition
• Data transfer byte transmitted/received
• Ac k nowledge transmi t
• Repeat ed Start

9.2.6 MULTI-MASTER MODE
In multi-master mode, the interrupt generation on the
detection of the START and STOP conditions allows
the determination of when the bus is free. The STOP
(P) and START (S) bits are cleared from a reset or
when the MSSP module is disabled. Control of the I2C
bus may be taken when bit P (SSPSTAT<4>) is set, or
the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear. When
the bus is busy, enabling the SSP Interrupt will gener-
ate the interrupt when the STOP condition occurs.
In multi-master operation, the SDA line must be moni-
tored for abitration to see if the signal level is the
expec ted ou tpu t lev el . Th is c he ck is performed in ha rd-
ware, with the result placed in the BCLIF bit.
The states where arbitration can be lost are:
• Address Transf e r
• Data Transfer
• A Start Condition
• A Repeated Start Condition
• An A cknowledge Condition
9.2.7 I2C MASTER MODE SUPPORT
Master Mode is enabled by setting and clearing the
appropriate SSPM bits in SSPCON and by setting the
SSPEN bit. Once master mode is enabled, the user
has six options.
- Assert a start condition on SDA and SCL.
- Assert a Repeated Sta rt condition on SDA and
SCL.
- Write to the SSPBUF register initiating trans-
mission of data/address.
- Generate a stop condition on SDA and SCL.
- Configure the I2C port to receive data.
- Gener ate an Ac kno wledg e con dition at the en d
of a received byte of data.
9.2.7.1 I2C MASTER MODE OPERATION
The master device generates all of the serial clock
pulses an d t he START and STOP con dit ion s . A tr ans -
fer is ended with a STOP condition or with a Repeated
Start condition. Since the Repeated Start condition is
also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the I2C
bus will not be released.
In Master Transmitter mode serial data is output
through SDA, while SCL outputs the serial clock. The
first byte transmitted contains the slave address of the
receiving device (7 bits) and the Read/Write (R/W) bit.
In this case, the R/W bit will be logic '0'. Serial data is
transmitted 8 bits at a time. After each by te is transmit-
ted, an acknowledg e bit is recei ved. START a nd STOP
conditions are output to indicate the beginning and the
end of a serial transfer.
In Master receive mode, the first byte transmitted con-
tains the slave address of the transmitting device
(7 bits) and the R/W bit. I n this case , the R/W bit wil l be
logic '1'. Thus the first byte transmitted is a 7-bit slave
address followed by a '1' to indicate receive bit. Serial
data is received via SDA, while SCL outputs the serial
cloc k. Serial data is receiv ed 8 bits at a time . After each
byte is received, an acknowledge bit is transmitted.
START and STOP conditions indicate the beginning
and end of tra ns miss ion .
The baud rate generator used for SPI mode operation
is now used to set the SCL clock frequency for either
100 kHz, 400 kHz or 1 MHz I2C operation. The baud
rate generator reload value is contained in the lower 7
bits of the SSPADD register. The baud rate generator
will automa tically begin counting on a write to the SSP-
BUF. Once the given operation is complete (i.e. trans-
mission of the last data bit is followed by ACK) the
internal clock will automatically stop counting and the
SCL pin will remain in its last sta te
A typical transmit sequence would go as follows:
a) The user genera tes a Start Condition by setting
the START enable bit (SEN) in SSPCON2.
b) SSPIF is set. The module will wait the required
start time before any other operation takes
place.
c) The user loads the SSPBUF with address to
transmit.
d) Addres s is s hif ted out the SDA pin until a ll 8 bit s
are transmitted.
e) The MSSP Mo dule shifts in the ACK bit fr om the
slave device and writes its value into the
SSPCON2 register ( SSPCON2<6>).
f) The modul e gen erates an interrupt at the end of
the ninth clock cycle by setting SSPIF.
g) The user loads the SSPBUF with eight bits of
data.
h) DATA is shifted out the SDA pin until all 8 bits
are transmitted.
Note: The MSSP Module , when configured in I2C
Master Mode, does not allow queueing of
events. For instance, the user is not
allowed to initiate a start condition and
immediately write the SSPBUF register to
initiate transmission before the START
condition is complete. In this case, the
SSPBUF will not be written to and the
WCOL bit will be s et, in dicat ing t hat a write
to the SSPBUF did not occur.
PIC16F87X
DS30292A-page 78 1999 Microchip Technology Inc.
i) The MSSP module shift s in the AC K bit from the
slave device, and writes its value into the
SSPCON2 register ( SSPCON2<6>).
j) The MSSP module gen erates an int errupt at the
end of the ninth cloc k cyc le by setting the SSPIF
bit.
k) The us er genera tes a ST OP con dition b y settin g
the STOP enable bit PEN in SSPCON2.
l) Interrupt is generated once the STOP condition
is complete.
9.2.8 BAUD RATE GENERATOR
In I2C master mode, the reload value for the BRG is
located in the lower 7 bits of the SSPADD register
(Figure 9-10). W hen the BRG is loa ded with th is va lue,
the BRG counts down to 0 and stops until another
reload h as taken place . The BRG co unt is decrem ented
twice per instruction cycle (TCY), on the Q2 and Q4
clock.
In I2C mas ter mode , the BRG is reloaded auto matically.
If Clock Arbitration is taking place for instance, the BRG
will be reloaded when the SCL pin is sampled high
(Figure 9-11).

9.2.9 I2C MASTER MODE STAR T CONDITION
TIMING
To initiate a START condition, the user sets the start
condition enable bit, SEN (SSPCON2<0>). If the SDA
and SCL p ins are sam ple d hi gh, the baud rate genera-
tor is re-l oaded with th e content s of SSPADD<6:0> and
starts its count. If SCL and SDA are both sam pled high
when the baud rate generator times out (TBRG), the
SDA pin is driven low. The action of the SDA being
driven low while SCL is high is the START condition,
and causes the S bit (SSPSTAT<3>) to be set. Follow-
ing this, the baud rate generator is reloaded with the
contents of SSPADD<6:0> and resumes its count.
When the baud rate generator times out (TBRG), the
SEN bit (SSPCON2<0>) will be automatically cleared
by hardware. The baud rate generator is suspended
lea ving the SD A line hel d low, and the START conditio n
is complete.
9.2.9.1 WCOL STATUS FLAG
If the user writes the SSPBUF when an START
sequence is in progress, then WCOL is set and the
contents of the b uffer are unchan ged (the w rite doesn ’t
occur).
FIGURE 9-12: FIRST START BIT TIMING
Note: If at the beginning of START condition the
SDA and SCL pins are already sampled
low, or if during the START condition the
SCL line is sampled low before the SDA
line is driven lo w, a b us collision occurs , the
Bus Collision Interrupt Flag (BCLIF) is set,
the START condition is aborted, and the
I2C module is reset into its IDLE state.
Note: Because queueing of events is not
allowed, writing to the lower 5 bits of
SSPCON2 is disabled until the START
conditi on is complete.

9.2.10 I2C MASTER MODE REPEATED START
CONDITION TIMING
A Repeated Start condition occurs when the RSEN bit
(SSPCON2<1>) is prog ram med high and the I2C mod-
ule is in the idle state. When the RSEN bit is set, the
SCL pin is asserted low . When the SCL pin is sampled
low, the baud ra te genera tor is loaded with the contents
of SSPADD<6:0> and beg ins coun ting. The SD A pin i s
released (brought high) for one baud rate generator
count (TBRG). When the baud rate generator times out
if SDA is sampled hi gh, the SCL pin will be dea ss erted
(brought high). When SCL is sampled high the baud
rate generator is reloaded with the contents of
SSPADD<6:0> and begins counting. SDA and SCL
must be sampled high f or one TBRG. This action is the n
followed by assertion of the SDA pin (SDA is low ) for
one T BRG, whil e SCL is high. Fo llowing th is, the RSEN
bit in the SSPCON2 register will be automatically
cleared and the baud rate generator will not be
relo aded, leaving th e SDA pin he ld low. As soon as a
start condition is detected on the SDA and SCL pins,
the S bit (SSPSTAT<3>) will be set. The SSPIF bit will
not be set until the baud rate generator has timed-out.
Immediately following the SSPIF bit getting set, the
user may write the SSPBUF with the 7-bit address in
7-bit mode, or the default first address in 10-bit mode.
After the first eight bits are transmitted and an ACK is
received, the user ma y then transmit an additional eight
bits of address (10-bit mode) or eight bits of data (7-bit
mode).
9.2.10.1 WCOL STATUS FLAG
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a Repeated Star t
sequence is in progress, then WCOL is set and the
contents of the b uffer are unchan ged (the w rite doesn ’t
occur).
FIGURE 9-13: REPEAT START CONDITION WAVEFORM
Note 1: If RSEN is programmed while any other
event is in progress, it will not take effect.
Note 2: A bus collision during the Repeated Start
condition occurs if:
• SDA is sampled low when SCL goes
from low to high.
• SCL goes low before SDA is asserted
low. This may indicate that another
master is attempting to transmit a
data "1".
Note: Because queueing of events is not
allowed, writing of the lower 5 bits of
SSPCON2 is disabled until the Repeated
Start condition is complete.

9.2.11 I2C MASTER MODE TRANSMISSION
Transmission of a data byte, a 7-bit address or either
half of a 10-bit address is accomplished by simply writ-
ing a v alue to SSPBUF regi ster . This act ion will set the
buf fer fu ll flag (BF) and allow the baud ra te generat or to
begin counting and star t the next transmission. Each
bit of address/data will be shifted out onto the SDA pin
after the falling edg e of SCL is ass erted (see data hol d
time spec). SCL is held low for one baud rate gener-
ator rollo v er co unt (TBRG). Data should be valid before
SCL is released high (see data setup time spec).
When the SCL pin is released high, it is held that way
for TBRG. The data o n t he SDA pin must remai n s ta b l e
for that duration and some hold time after the next fall-
ing edge of SCL. After the eighth bit is shifted out (the
falling edge of the eighth clock), the BF flag is cleared
and the mast er r elease s SDA allo wing th e sla ve de vice
being add ressed to respond w ith an ACK bit du ring the
ninth b it tim e, if an addre ss m atch oc curs or if d ata w a s
recei ved prop erl y. The sta tus of ACK is read into the
ACKDT on the falling edge of the ninth clock. If the
master receives an acknowledge, the acknowledge
status bit (ACKSTAT) is cleared. If not, the bit is set.
After the ninth clock, the SSPIF is set and the master
clock (baud rate generator) is suspended until the next
data byte is loaded into the SSPBUF, leaving SCL low
and SDA unchanged (Figure 9-14).
After the write to the SSPBUF, each bit of address will
be shifted out on the falling edge of SCL until all seven
address bits and t he R/W bit are complet ed. On the fall-
ing edge of the eighth clock, the master will de-assert
the SDA pin allowing the slave to respond with an
ac know ledge . On the fa lling ed ge of the ninth cl ock , the
master will sample the SDA pin to see if the address
wa s recog niz ed b y a sl ave. The st atus of th e A CK bit is
loaded into the ACKSTAT status bit (SSPCON2<6>).
Following the falling edge of the ninth clock transmis-
sion of the address, the SSPIF is set, the BF flag is
cleared, and the baud rate generator is turned off until
another writ e to th e SS PBU F takes place , ho ldi ng SCL
low and allowing SDA to float.
9.2.11.1 BF STATUS FLAG
In tran smit mode, the BF bit (SSPSTAT<0>) is set whe n
the CPU writes to SSPBUF and is cleared when all 8
bits are shifted out.
9.2.11.2 WCOL STATUS FLAG
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a transmit is
already in progress (i.e. SSPSR is still shifting out a
data byte), then WCOL is set and the contents of the
buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur).
WCOL must be cleared in software.
9.2.11.3 ACKSTAT STATUS FLAG
In transmit mode, the ACKSTAT bit (SSPCON2<6>) is
cleared when the slave has sent an acknowledge
(ACK = 0), an d is set when the sla ve does n ot acknowl-
edge (ACK = 1) . A slave sends an acknowledge when
it has recognized its address (including a general call),
or when the slave has properly received its data.

9.2.12 I2C MASTER MODE RECEPTION
Master m ode re ce ption is ena b l ed b y p rogram m ing th e
receive enable bit, RCEN (SSPCON2<3>).
The baud rate generato r begins c ounting, a nd on eac h
rollover, the state of the SCL pin changes (high to
low/low to high), and data is shifted into the SSPSR.
After the falling edge of the eighth clock, the receive
enab le flag is automati cally cleare d, the conte nts of the
SSPSR are loaded in to the SSPBUF, the BF flag is set,
the SSPIF is set, and the baud rate generator is sus-
pended from counting, holding SCL low. The SSP is
now in IDLE state, awaiting the next command. When
the buffer is read by the CPU, the BF flag is automati-
cally c lea red . T he user c an then send an acknowledg e
bit at the end of reception, by setting the acknowledge
sequence enable bit, ACKEN (SSPCON2<4>).
9.2.12.1 BF STATUS FLAG
In rece ive oper ation, BF is se t when an address or data
byte is loaded into SSPBUF from SSPSR. It is cleared
when SSPBUF is read.
9.2.12.2 SSPOV STATUS FLAG
In receive operation, SSPOV is set when 8 bits are
receiv ed into the SSPSR, and t he BF flag is already set
from a previou s rece pti on.
9.2.12.3 WCOL STATUS FLAG
If the user writes the SSPBUF when a receive is
already in progress (i. e. SSPSR is stil l shifting in a da ta
byte), then WCOL is set and the contents of the buffer
are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur).
Note: The SSP module must be in an IDLE
STATE before the RCEN bit is set or the
RCEN bit will be disregarded.

9.2.13 ACKNOWLEDGE SEQUENCE TIMING
An acknowledge sequence is enabled by setting the
acknowledge sequence enable bit, ACKEN
(SSPCON2<4>). When this bit is set, the SCL pin is
pulled low and the contents of the acknowledge data
bit is presented on the SDA pin. If the user wishes to
generate an acknowledge, the ACKDT bit should be
cleared. If not, the user should set the ACKDT bit
before starting an acknowledge sequence. The baud
rate generator then counts for one rollover period
(TBRG), and the SCL pin is deasserted (pulled high).
When the SCL pin is sampled high (clock arbitration),
the baud rate generator counts for TBRG. The SCL pin
is then pulled lo w . Following this , the ACKEN bit is auto-
matica lly cl eared, th e baud r ate gen er ator is tu rned off ,
and the SSP module then goes into IDLE mode.

9.2.14 STOP CONDITION TIMING
A stop bit is asserted on the SDA pin at the end of a
receive/transmit by setting the Stop Sequence Enable
bit PEN (SSPCON2<2> ). At the end of a re ceiv e/tr ans-
mit, the SCL l ine is held lo w afte r the falling edge of the
ninth clock. When the PEN bit is set, the master will
assert the SDA line low . When the SDA line is sam-
pled low, the baud rate generator is reloaded and
counts do wn to 0. Wh en th e bau d r ate g enera tor ti mes
out, the SCL pin will be brought high, and one TBRG
(baud rate generator rollover count) later, the SDA pin
will b e deas serted. When the SDA pin is samp led hig h
while SCL is high, the P bit (SSPSTAT<4>) is set. A
TBRG lat er, the PEN bit is clea red an d th e SSPI F bi t is
set (Figure 9-17).
Whenever the firmware decides to take control of the
bus, it will first determine if the bus is busy by checkin g
the S and P bits in the SSPSTAT register. If the bus is
busy, then the CPU can be interrupted (notified) when
a Stop bit is detected (i.e. bus is free).

9.2.15 CLOCK ARBITRATION
Clock arbitration occurs when the master, during any
receive, transmit, or repeated start/stop condition,
deasserts the SCL pin (SCL allowed to float high).
When the SCL pin is allowed to float high, the baud rate
generator (BRG) is suspended from counting until the
SCL p in is act ually sampl ed hi gh. Wh en the SCL pin is
sample d high, the bau d rate gen erato r is reloade d with
the contents of SSPADD<6:0> and begins counting.
This ensures that the SCL high time will always be at
least on e BRG rol lo v er cou nt in the eve nt that th e cloc k
is held low by an external device (Figure 9-18).
9.2.16 SLEEP OPERATION
While in sleep mode, the I2C module can receive
addresses or data, and when an address match or
complete byte transfer occurs, w ake the p rocessor from
sleep (if the SSP interrupt is enabled).
9.2.17 EFFECTS OF A RESET
A reset disables the SSP module and terminates the
current transfer.

9.2.18 MULTI -MASTER COMMUNICATION, BUS
COLLISION, AND BUS ARBITRATION
Multi-Master mode support is achieved by bus arbitra-
tion. When the master outputs address/data bits onto
the SDA pin, arbitration takes place when the master
outputs a ’1’ on SDA by letting SDA float high and
another master as s erts a ’0’. Wh en the SC L pin fl oats
high, data should be stable. If the expected data on
SD A is a ’ 1’ and the data sa mpled on the SD A pin = ’ 0’,
a bu s collis ion has TACKEN p lace. The master w ill set
the Bus Collision Interrupt Flag, BCLIF and reset the
I2C port to its ID LE state. (Figure 9-19).
If a transmit was in progress when the bus collision
occurred, the transmission is halted, the BF flag is
cleared, the SDA and SCL lines are deasserted, and
the SSPBUF c an be written to . When the user services
the b us co llisi on inte rrupt service routin e , and if the I2C
bus is free, the user can resume communication by
asserting a START conditi on.
If a START, Repeated Start, STOP or Acknowledge
condition was in progress when the bus collision
occurred, the condition is aborted, the SDA and SCL
lines are deasserted, and the respective control bits in
the SSPCON2 register are cleared. When the user
services the bus collision interrupt service routine, and
if the I2C bus is free, the user can resume communica-
tion by asserting a START condition.
The Master will continue to monitor the SDA and SCL
pins , and if a STOP conditio n occu rs, the S SPIF bit will
be set.
A write to the SSPBUF will start the transmission of
data at the first data bit, regardless of where the trans-
mitter left off when the bus collision occurred.
In multi-master mode, the interrupt generation on the
detection of star t and stop conditions allows the deter-
minatio n of when th e bus is free . Cont rol of the I2C b us
can be TACKEN when the P bit is set in the SSPSTAT
register, or the bus is idle and the S and P bits are
cleared.

9.2.18.1 BUS COLLISION DURING A START
CONDITION
During a START condition, a bu s collision occurs if:
a) SD A or SCL are sa mpled low at th e beginning of
the START condition (Figure 9-20).
b) SCL is sampled low before SD A is asserted low.
(Figure 9-21).
During a START condition both the SDA and the SCL
pins are monitored.
If: the SDA pin is already low
or the SCL pin is already low,
then:
the START condition is aborted,
and the BCLIF flag is set,
and the SSP module is reset to its IDLE state
(Figure 9-20).
The START condition begins with the SDA and SCL
pins deas ser t ed. Wh en the S DA pin is sam pled h igh,
the baud rate generator is loaded from SSPADD<6:0>
and counts down to 0. If the SCL pin is sampled low
while SDA is high, a bus collision occurs, because it is
assumed that another master is attempting to drive a
data ’1’ during the START condition.
If the SDA pin is sampled low during this count, the
BRG is reset and the SDA line is asserted early
(Figure 9-22). If however a ’1’ is sampled on the SDA
pin, the SDA pin is asser ted low at the end of the BRG
count. The baud rate generator is then reloaded and
counts down to 0. During this time, if the SCL pins are
sampled as ’0’, a bus collision does not occur. At the
end of the BRG c oun t ,th e SC L p in i s ass erted low.
FIGURE 9-20: BUS COLLISION DURING START CONDITION (SDA ONLY)
Note: The reason that bus collision is not a f actor
during a START condition is that no two
bus masters can assert a START condition
at the exact same time. Therefore, one
master will always assert SDA before the
other. This conditio n does no t cause a b u s
collis ion, becaus e the tw o masters m ust be
allo wed to arbitrate the first a ddress f oll ow-
ing the START condition. If the address is
the same, arbitration must be allowed to

9.2.18.2 BUS COLLISION DURING A REPEATED
START CONDITION
During a Repeated Start condition, a bus collision
occu rs if:
a) A low level is sampled on SDA when SCL goes
from low level to high level.
b) SCL goes low before SDA is asser ted low, indi-
cating that another master is attempting to tran s-
mit a data ’1’.
When the user deas serts SD A an d the pin i s allow ed to
float high, the BRG is loaded with SSPADD<6:0> and
counts down t o 0. The SCL pin is then deasserted, and
when sam pled hi gh, the SD A pin is s ampl ed. If SDA is
low, a bus c ollis ion has occu rred (i.e . ano ther mas ter is
attempting to transmit a data ’0’). If however SDA is
sampled high, the BRG is reloaded and begins count-
ing. If SD A go es from high to low bef ore the BRG ti mes
out, no bus collision occurs, because no two masters
can assert SDA at exactly the same time.
If , how e ver , SCL goes from high to lo w be f ore the BRG
times out and SDA has not already been asserted, a
bus collision occurs. In this case, another master is
attempting to transmit a data ’1’ during the Repeated
Start condition.
If at the end of the BRG time out b oth SCL and SD A are
still high, the SD A pin is driv en low , the BRG is reloaded
and begins counting. At the end of the count, regard-
less of the status of the SCL pin, the SCL pin is driven
low and the Repeated Start condition is complete
(Figure 9-23).

9.2.18.3 BUS COLLISION DURING A STOP
CONDITION
Bus collision occurs during a STOP condition if:
a) After the SDA pin has been deasserted and
allowed to float high, SDA is sampled low after
the BRG has timed out.
b) After th e SCL pin is deas serted, SCL is sam pled
low before SDA goes high.
The STOP condition begins with SDA asserted low.
When SDA is s ampled low, the SCL pin is allo w to floa t.
When the pin is sampled high (clock arbitration), the
baud ra te generator is loaded with SSPADD<6:0> and
counts down to 0. After the BRG times out, SDA is
sampled. If SDA is sampled low, a bus collision has
occurred. This is due to another master attempting to
drive a data ’0’. If the SCL pin is sampled low before
SDA is allowed to float high, a bus collision occurs.
This is a case of another master attempting to drive a
dat a ’0’ (Figure 9-25).

9.3 Connection Considerations for I2C
Bus
For standard-mode I2C bus devices, the values of
resistors
R
p
and
R
s
in Figure 9-27 depend on the fol-
lowing para meters:
• Supply voltage
• Bus capacitance
• Number of connected devices
(input current + leakage current).
The supp ly v ol tag e limi ts the m inim um value of res istor
R
p
due to the specified minimum sink current of 3 mA
at VOL max = 0.4 V for the spec ified ou tput stages. For
ex ample, with a supply voltage of VDD = 5V+10% and
VOL max = 0.4V at 3 mA, Rp min = (5.5-0.4)/0.003 =
1.7 kΩ. VDD as a function of
R
p
is shown in Figure 9-27.
The desired noise margin of 0.1VDD for the low level
limits the maximum value of
R
s
. Series resistors are
optional and used to improve ESD susceptibility.
The bus capacitance is the total capacitance of wire,
connec tions, an d pins. This capac itance limits the max-
imum value of
R
p
due to the specified rise time
(Figure 9-27).
The SMP b it is the sl ew rate c ontrol enab led bit. This bit
is in the SSPSTAT register, and controls the slew rate
of the I/O pins when in I2C mode (master or slave).

ASYNCHRONOUS RECEIVER
TRANSMITTER (USART)
The Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver
Transmitter (USART) module is one of the two serial
I/O modules. (USART is also known as a Serial Com-
muni cations I nterf ace or SCI ). The USAR T can b e con-
figured as a full duplex asynchronous system that can
comm un ic a te with peripheral devices su ch as C RT ter-

as a half dup lex synchro nou s sy s t em that c an co mmu-
nicate w it h periphe ral devi ce s s uch as A/D or D /A in te-
grated circuits, serial EEPROMs etc.
The USART can be configured in the following modes:
• Asynchronous (full duplex)
• Synchronous - Master (half duplex)
• Synchronous - Slave (half duplex)
Bit SPEN (RCSTA<7>) and bits TRISC<7:6> have to
be set in order to configure pins RC6/TX/CK and
RC7/RX/DT as the Univ ersal Sync hronous Asynchro-
nous Receiver Transmitter.
The USART module also has a multi-processor com-
munication capability using 9-bit address detection.

10.1 USART Baud Rate Generator (BRG)
The BRG supports both the asynchronous and syn-
chronous modes of the USART. It is a dedicated 8-bit
baud rate generator. The SPBRG register controls the
period of a free running 8-bit timer. In asynchronous
mode, bit BRGH (TXSTA<2>) also controls the baud
rate. In synchronous mode, bit BRGH is ignored.
Table 10-1 shows the formula for computation of the
baud ra te for different USART modes which only apply
in master mode (internal clock).
Giv en the desired baud r ate and Fo sc, the neare st inte-
ger value for the SPBRG register can be calculated
using the for mula in Table 10-1. From this, the error in
baud rate can be determined.
It may be advantageous to use the high baud rate
(BRGH = 1) even for slower baud clocks. This is
becaus e the F OSC/(16(X + 1 )) eq uati on ca n red uc e th e
baud rate err or in some cases.
Writing a new value to the SPBRG register causes the
BRG timer to be reset (or cleared). This ensures the
BRG does not wait for a ti mer overflow be fo re outp ut-
ting the new baud rate.
10.1.1 SAMPLING

10.2 USART Asynchronous Mode
In this mode, the USART uses standard non-return-to-
zero (NRZ) format (one start bit, eight or nin e data b its ,
and one stop bit). The most common data format is 8
bits. An on-chip, dedicated, 8-bit baud rate generator
can be used to derive standard baud rate frequencies
from the oscillator. The USART transmits and receives
the LSb first. Th e USAR T’ s transmit ter and receive r are
functio nally in dependent , but use the s ame data fo rmat
and baud rate. The baud rate generator produces a
clock either x16 or x64 of the bit shift rate, depending
on bit BRGH (TXSTA<2>). Parity is not supported by
the hard ware , b ut can be implem ented in s oftw are (and
stored as the ninth data bit). Asynchronous mode is
stopped during SLEEP.
Asynchronous mode is selected by clearing bit SYNC
(TXSTA<4>).
The USART Asynchronous module consists of the fol-
lowing important el ements:
• Baud Ra te Ge ner ator
• Sampling Circuit
• Asynchronous Transmitter
• Asynchronous Receiver
10.2.1 USART ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSMITTER
The USART transmitter block diagram is shown in
Figure 10-1. The he art of the tr a nsmitter i s the trans mit
(serial) shift register (TSR). The shift register obtain s its
data from the read/write transmit buffer, TXREG. The
TXREG register is loaded with data in software. The
TSR register is not loaded until the STOP bit has been
transmitted from the previous load. As soon as the
STOP bit is transmitted, the TSR is loaded with new
data from the TXREG register (if available). Once the
TXRE G reg iste r tr ansfers t he data to th e TS R re giste r
(occurs in one TCY), the TXREG register is empty and
flag bit TXIF (PIR1<4>) is set. This interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit TXIE
( PIE1<4>). Flag bit TXIF will be set, regardless of the
state of enable bit TXIE and cannot be cleared in soft-
wa re. It will reset onl y when ne w data is load ed into the
TXREG register . While fla g bit TXIF indicates the st atus
of the TXREG register, another bit TRMT (TXSTA<1>)
shows the status of the TSR register. Status bit TRMT
is a re ad onl y bit, which is se t w he n the TSR r egi ster is
empty. No interrupt logic is tied to this bit, so the user
has to poll this bit in order to determine if the TSR reg-
ister is empty.
Transmission is enabled by setting enable bit TXEN
(TXSTA<5>). The actual transmission will not occur
until the TXREG register has been loaded with data
and the baud rate generator (BRG) has produced a
shift clock (Figure 10-2). The transmis sion can also be
started by first loading the TXREG register and then
setting enable bit TXEN. Normally, when transmission
is first started, the TSR register is empty. At that point,
tran sfer to the TXREG regi st er w il l res ul t in an i mm ed i-
ate transfer to TSR, resulting in an empty TXREG. A
back-to-back transfer is thus possible (Figure 10-3).
Clearing enable bit TXEN during a transmission will
cause the trans missio n to be aborted and will res et the
transmitter. As a result, the RC6/TX/CK pin will revert
to hi-impedance.
In order to select 9-bit transmission, transmit bit TX9
(TXSTA<6>) should be set and the ninth bit should be
written to TX9D (TXSTA<0>). The ninth bit must be
written before writing the 8-bit data to the TXREG reg-
ister. This is because a data write to the TXREG regis-
ter can resul t in an immediate tran sf er of the data to the
TSR register (if the TSR is empty). In such a case, an
incorrect ninth data bit may be loaded in the TSR
register.
FIGURE 10-1: USART TRANSMIT BLOCK DIAGRAM
Note 1: The TSR register is not mapped in data
memory, so it is not available to the user.
2: Flag bit TXI F is set when ena bl e bit TXEN
is set. TXIF is cleared by loading TXREG.

Steps to follow when setting up an Asynchronous
Transmission:
1. Initi ali z e the SPBRG regis te r for the appropriate
baud rate. If a high speed baud rate is desired,
set bit BRGH. (Section 10.1)
2. Enable the asynchronous serial port by clearing
bit SYNC and setting bit SPEN.
3. If interrupts are desired, then set enable bit
TXIE.
4. If 9-b it tr ansmis si on is d esi red , th en s et trans m it
bit TX9.
5. Enable the transmission by setting bit TXEN,
which will also set bit TXIF.
6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit
should be loaded in bit TX9D.
7. Load data to the TXREG register (starts trans-
mission).

10.2.2 USART ASYNCHRONOUS RECEIVER
The receiver block diagram is shown in Figure 10-4.
The data is recei ved on the RC7/RX/DT pin and drives
the data recovery block. The data recovery block is
actuall y a h igh s pee d s hi fter ope rating a t x 16 tim es the
baud r ate, wherea s the main recei ve serial shif ter oper-
ates at the bit rate or at FOSC.
Once asynchronous mode is selected, reception is
enabled by setting bit CREN (RCSTA<4>).
The heart of the receiver i s the receiv e (serial) shi ft reg-
ister (RSR). After sampling the STOP bit, the received
data in the RSR is transf erred to the RCREG register (if
it is empty). If the transfer is complete, flag bit RCIF
(PIR1<5>) is set. The actual interrupt can be enabled/
disab led by setting/clearing enable bit RCIE (PIE1<5>).
Flag bit RCIF is a read only bit which is cleared by the
hardware. It is cleared when the RCREG register has
been read and is empty. The RCREG is a double buff-
ered register (i.e. it is a two deep FIFO). It is possible
fo r two bytes of data to be received and transferred to
the RCREG FIFO and a third byte to begin shifting to
the RSR register. On the detection of the STOP bit of
the third byte, if the RCREG register is still full, the ov er-
run error bit OERR (RCSTA<1>) will be set. The word
in the RSR will be lost. The RCREG register can be
read twice to retrieve the two bytes in the FIFO. Over-
run bit OERR has to be cleared in software. This is
done by resetting the receive logic (CREN is cleared
and then set). If bit OERR is set, transfers from the
RSR register to the RCREG register are inhibited, so it
is essential to clear error bit OERR if it is set. Framing
error bit FERR (RCSTA<2>) is set if a stop bit is
detected as c lea r. Bit FERR and the 9th rece ive bit are
buffered the same way as the receive data. Reading
the RCREG will load bits RX9D and FERR with new
values, therefore it is essential for the user to read the
RCSTA register before reading RCREG register in
order not to l os e th e o ld FER R an d R X9 D information .

10.3 USART Synchronous Master Mode
In Sync hronous Maste r mode, t he data i s transmitte d in
a half-duplex manne (i.e., transmission and reception
do not occur at the same time). When transm itting data,
the reception is inhibited and vice versa. Synchronous
mode is entered by setting bit SYNC (TXSTA<4>). In
addition, enable bit SPEN (RCSTA<7>) is set in order
to configure the RC6/TX/CK and RC7/RX/DT I/O pins
to CK (clock) and DT (data) lines respectively. The
Master mode in dicates that th e proces sor tran smits th e
master clock on the CK line. The Master mode is
entered by setting bit CSRC (TXSTA<7>).
10.3.1 USART SYNCHRONOUS MASTER
TRANSMISSION
The USART transmitter block diagram is shown in
Figure 10-6. The he art of the tr a nsmitter i s the trans mit
(serial) shift register (TSR). The shift register obtain s its
data from the read/write transmit buffer register
TXREG. The TXREG register is loaded with data in
software. The TSR register is not loaded until the last
bit has been transmitted from the previous load. As
soon as the last bit is transmitted, the TSR is loaded
with new data from the TXREG (if available). Once the
TXRE G reg iste r tr ansfers t he data to th e TS R re giste r
(occurs in one Tcycle), the TXREG is empty and inter-
rupt bit TXIF (PIR1<4>) is set. The interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit TXIE
(PIE1<4>). Flag bit TXIF will be set regardless of the
state of enable bit TXIE and cannot be cleared in soft-
wa re. It will reset only when ne w data is l oaded into th e
TXREG register. While flag bit TXIF indicates the status
of the TXREG register, another bit TRMT (TXSTA<1>)
shows the status of the TSR register. TRMT is a read
only bit which is set when the TSR is empty. No inter-
rupt logic is tied to this bit, so the user has to poll this
bit in order to determine if the TSR register is empty.
The TSR is not mapped in data memory, so it is not
available to the user.
Transmission is enabled by setting enable bit TXEN
(TXSTA<5>). The actual transmission will not occur
until the TXREG register has been loaded with data.
The firs t data bit wi ll be shi fted out on the ne xt a v ailab le
rising edge of the clock on the CK line. Data out is sta-
ble around the falling edge of the synchronous clock
(Figure 10-9). The transmission can also be started by
first loading the TXREG register and then setting bit
TXEN (Fig ure 10-10). T his is a dv anta geous when sl ow
baud ra tes are selected , s ince the BRG is kep t in res et
when bits TXEN, CREN and SREN are clear. Setting
enable bit TXEN will start the BRG, creating a shift
clock immediately. N ormally, w hen transmission is first
started, the TSR register is empty, so a transfer to the
TXREG register will result in an immediate transfer to
TSR resulting in an empty TXREG. Back-to-back trans-
fe rs are possible.
Clearing enable bit TXEN during a transmission will
cause th e trans miss ion to be ab orted and will reset the
tra nsmit ter. The DT an d CK pi ns w ill re v ert to hi-im ped-
ance. If either bit CREN or bit SREN is set during a
transmission, the transmission is aborted and the DT
pin reverts to a hi-impedance state (for a reception).
The CK pin will remain an output if bit CSRC is set
(internal clock). The transmitter logic, however, is not
reset, although it is disconnected from the pins. In order
to reset the transmitter, the user has to clear bit TXEN.
If bit SR EN is set (to interrupt an on-going transm ission
and rece ive a single w ord), then a fter the sin gle word i s
received, bit SREN will be cleared and the serial port
will revert back to transmitting, since bit TXEN is still
set. The DT line will immediately switch from hi-imped-
ance receive mode to transmit and start driving. To
avoid this, bit TXEN should be cleared.
In order to select 9-bit transmission, the TX9
(TXSTA<6>) bit should be set and the ninth bit should
be written to bit TX9D (TXSTA<0>). The ninth bit must
be written before writing the 8-bit data to the TXREG
register . This is because a data write to the TXREG can
result in an immediate transfer of the data to the TSR
register (if the TSR is empt y). If the TSR was empty and
the TXREG was written before writing the “new” TX9D,
the “present” va lue of bit TX9D is loaded.
Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Master
Transmission:
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate
baud ra te (Section 10.1).
2. Enable the synchronous master serial port by
setting bits SYNC, SPEN and CSRC.
3. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit TXIE.
4. If 9-bit transmission is desired, set bit TX9.
5. Enable the transmission by setting bit TXEN.
6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit
should be loaded in bit TX9D.
7. Start transmission by loading data to the
TXREG register.

10.3.2 USART SYNCHRONOUS MASTER
RECEPTION
Once synchronous mode is selected, reception is
enab led by setting either enable bit SREN (RCSTA<5>)
or enable bit CREN (RCSTA<4>). Data is sampled on
the RC7/RX/DT pin on the falling edge of the clock. If
enable bit SREN is set, then only a single word is
received. If enable bit CREN is set, the reception is
continuous until CREN is cleared. If both bits are set,
CREN tak es prec edence . After cloc king the last bit, the
received data in the Receive Shift Register (RSR) is
transf erred to the RCREG register (if it is empty). When
the transfer is complete, interrupt flag bit RCIF
(PIR1<5>) is set. The actual interrupt can be enabled/
disab led by setting/clearing enable bit RCIE (PIE1<5>).
Flag bit RCIF is a read only bit, which is reset by the
hardw are. In this case, it i s reset when t he RCREG reg-
ister has been read an d is empty. The RCREG is a do u-
ble buffered register (i.e., it is a two deep FIFO). It is
possible f or two byte s o f d ata to be received and trans-
ferred to the RCREG FIFO and a third byte to begin
shifting into the RSR re gister . On the clo cking of t he last
bit of the third byte, if the RCREG register is still full,
then overrun error bit OERR (RCSTA<1>) is set. The
word in the RSR will be lost. The RCREG register can
be read twice to retrieve the two bytes in the FIFO. Bit
OERR has to be cleared in software (by clearing bit
CREN). If bit OERR is set, transfers from the RSR to
the RCREG are inhibited, so it is essential to clear bit
OERR if it is set. The ninth receive bit is buffered the
same way as the receive data. Reading the RCREG
register w ill load bit RX9 D with a ne w val ue, there for e it
is essential for the user to read the RCSTA register
before reading RCREG in order not to lose the old
RX9D information.
Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Master
Reception:
1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate
baud rate. (Section 10.1)
2. Enable the synchronous master serial port by
setting bits SYNC, SPEN and CSRC.
3. Ensure bits CREN and SREN are clear.
4. If interrupts are desired, then set enable bit RCIE.
5. If 9-bit reception is desired, then set bit RX9.
6. If a single reception is required, set bit SREN.
For continuous reception set bit CREN.
7. Interrupt fla g bit RCIF will be se t when reception
is complete and an interrupt will be generated if
enable bit RCIE was set.
8. Read the RCSTA register to get the ninth bit (if
enabled) and determine if any error occurred
during reception.
9. Read the 8-bit received data by reading the
RCREG register.
10. If any error occurred, clear the error by clearing
bit CREN.

10.4 USART Synchronous Slave Mode
Synchro nous s la v e mo de dif f ers fro m the M aster mod e
in the fact that the shift clock is supplied externally at
the RC6/T X/CK pin (instead of being su pplied internally
in master mode). This allows the device to transfer or
receive data while in SLEEP mode. Slave mode is
entered by clearing bit CSRC (TXSTA<7>).
10.4.1 USART SYNCHRONOUS SLAVE
TRANSMIT
The operation of the synchronous master and slave
modes are identical except in the case of the SLEEP
mode.
If two words are written to the TXREG and then the
SLEEP instruction is executed, the following will occur:
a) The first word will immediately transfer to the
TSR register and transmit.
b) The second w ord will remain in TXREG reg ister .
c) Flag bit TXIF will not be set.
d) When the first word has been shi fted out of TSR,
the TXREG register will transfer the second
word to the TSR and flag bit TXIF will now be
set.
e) If enable bit TXIE is set, the interrupt will wake
the chip from SLEEP and if the global interrupt
is enabled, the program will branch to the inter-
rupt vector (0004h).
Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Slave
Transmission:
1. En able the synchron ous sla v e serial port by set-
ting bits SYNC and SPEN and clearing bit
CSRC.
2. Clear bits CREN and SREN.
3. If interrupts are desired, then set enable bit
TXIE.
4. If 9-bit transmission is desired, then set bit TX9.
5. Enable the transmission by setting enable bit
TXEN.
6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit
should be loaded in bit TX9D.
7. Start transmission by loading data to the
TXREG register.
10.4.2 USART SYNCHRONOUS SLAVE
RECEPTION
The operation of the synchronous master and slave
modes is identical, except in the case of the SLEEP
mode. Bit SREN is a “don't care” in slave mode.
If receive is enabled by setting bit CREN prior to the
SLEEP instruction, then a word may be received during
SLEEP. On completely receiving the word, the RSR
register will transfer the data to the RCREG register
and if enab le bit RCIE bit is set, the interrupt gener ated
will wake the chip from SLEEP. If the global interrupt is
enabled, the p r og r am w i ll branch to th e interrupt vector
(0004h).
Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Slave
Reception:
1. Enable the synchronous master serial port by
setting bits SYNC and SPEN and clearing bit
CSRC.
2. If interrupts are desired, set enable bit RCIE.
3. If 9-bit reception is desired, set bit RX9.
4. To enable reception, set enable bit CREN.
5. Fl ag b it RC IF wi ll b e set when reception is com -
plete and an interrupt will be generated, if
enable bit RCIE was set.
6. Read the RCSTA register to get the ninth bit (if
enabled) and determine if any error occurred
during reception.
7. Read the 8-bit received data by reading the
RCREG register.
8. If any error occurred, clear the error by clearing
bit CREN.

11.0 ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL
CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE
The Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Converter module has five
inputs for the 28-pin devices and eight for the other
devices.
The analog input charges a sample and hold capacitor .
The output of the sample and hold capacitor is the
input into the converter. The converter then generates
a digital result of this analog level via successive
approximation. The A/D con version of the analog input
signal results in a c orresponding 10-bit digital number.
The A/D module has high and low voltage reference
input that is software selectable to some combination
of VDD, VSS, RA2 or RA3.
The A/D conv erter has a un ique f eature of b eing ab le to
oper ate while the devic e is in SLEEP mode. To operate
in sleep, the A/D clock must be derived from the A/D’s
internal RC oscillator.
The A/D module has four registers. These registers
are: • A/D Result High Register (ADRESH)
• A/D Result Low Register (ADRESL)
• A/D Control Register0 (ADCON0)
• A/D Control Register1 (ADCON1)
The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 11-1, con-
trols the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1
register, shown in Register 11-2, configures the func-
tions of the por t pins. The port pins can be configured
as analog inputs (RA3 can also be the voltage refer-
ence) or as digital I/O.
Addition al inf o rmation on us ing the A/D module can be
found in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU Family Ref-
erence Manual (DS33023).

The ADRESH:ADRESL registers contain the 10-bit
result of th e A/D conversion . When the A/D co nversio n
is complete, the result is loaded into this A/D result reg-
ister pair, the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0<2>) is cleared
and the A/D interrupt flag bi t ADIF is set. The b loc k dia-
gram of the A/D module is shown in Figure 11-1.
After the A/D module has been configured as desired,
the selected channel must be acquired before the con-
version is started. The analog input channels must
have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as inputs.
To determine sample time, see Section 11.1. After this
acquisition time has elapsed, the A/D conversion can
be started. The following steps should be followed for
doing an A/D conversion:
1. Co nfigure the A/D module:
• Configure analog pins / voltage reference /
and digital I/O (ADCON1)
• Select A/D input channel (ADCON0)
• Select A/D conversion clock (ADCON0)
• Turn on A/D module (ADCON0)
2. Configure A/D interrupt (if desir ed):
• Clear ADIF bit
• Set ADIE bit
• Set GIE bit
3. Wait the required acqu is iti on tim e .
4. St art conversion:
• Set GO/DONE bit (ADCON0)
5. Wait for A/D conversion to complete, by either:
• Polling for the GO/DONE bit to be cleared
OR
• Waiting for the A/D interrupt
6. Read A/D Result register pair
(ADRESH:ADRESL), clear bit ADIF if required.
7. For next conversion, go to step 1 or step 2 as
required. The A/D conversion time per bit is
defined as TAD. A minimum wait of 2TAD is
required before next acquisition starts.

FIGURE 11-1: A/D BLOCK DIAGRAM
11.1 A/D Acquisition Requirements
For the A/D converter to meet its specified accuracy,
the charge holding capacitor (CHOLD) must be allowed
to fully charge to the input channel voltage level. The
analog input model is shown in Figure 11-2. The
source impedance (RS) and the internal sampling
switch (RSS) impedance directly affect the time
required to charge the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling
switch (RSS) impeda nc e varies over the de vic e voltage
(VDD), Figure 11-2. The maximum recommended
impedance for analog sources is 10 kΩ. As the
impedance is decreased, the acquisition time may be
decreased. After the analog input channel is selected
(changed), this acquisition must be done before the
conversion can be started.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time,
Equation 11-1 may be used. This equation assumes
that 1/2 LSb e rror is used (1024 step s f or the A/D). The
1/2 LS b er ror i s th e max imum error all o wed for the A/D
to meet its specified resolution.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time, TACQ, see

(DS33023).

11.2 Selecting the A/D Conversion Clock
The A/D conversion time per bit is defined as TAD. The
A/D conversion requires a minimum 12TAD per 10-bit
conversion. The source of the A/D conversion clock is
software selected. The four possible options for TAD
are: •2T
OSC
•8TOSC
•32TOSC
• Interna l RC oscillator
For correct A/D conversions, the A/D conversion clock
(TAD) mus t be s elect ed t o ens ure a min imum TAD time
of 1.6 µs.
Table 11-1shows the resultant TAD times derived from
the device operating frequencies and the A/D clock
source selected.
TABLE 11-1: TAD vs. MAXIMUM DEVICE OPERATING FREQUENCIES (STANDARD DEVICES (C))
11.3 Configuring Analog Port Pins
The ADCON1, and TRIS registers control the operation
of the A/D port pins. The por t pins that are desired as
analog inputs must have their corresponding TRIS bits
set (in put ). If the TRIS bit is c leared (output), the di gita l
output level (VOH or VOL) will be converted.
The A/D operation is independent of the state of the
CHS2:CHS0 bits and the TRIS bits.
AD Clock Source (TAD) Maxim um De v ice Frequ enc y

2TOSC 00 1.25 MHz
8TOSC 01 5 MHz
32TOSC 10 20 MHz
RC(1 , 2, 3) 11 Note 1
Note 1: The RC source has a typical TAD time of 4 µs but can vary between 2-6 µs.
2: When the device frequencies are greater than 1 MHz, the RC A/D conversion cloc k source is only recommended for sleep
operation.
3: For extended voltage devices (LC), please refer to the Electrical Specifications section.
Note 1: When reading the port register, any pin
configu red as an a nalog inpu t ch annel wil l
read as cleared (a low level). Pins config-
ured as dig ital input s wil l conver t an ana-
log input. Analog levels on a digitally
configured input will not affect the conver-
sion accuracy.
2: Analog level s on any pi n that is defined as
a digital input (including the AN7:AN0
pins), may cause the input buffer to con-
sume current that is out of the device
specifications.

11.4 A/D Conversions
Clearing the GO/DONE bit during a conversion will
abort the current conversion. The A/D result register
pair will NOT be updated with the par tially completed
A/D conversion sample. That is, the
ADRESH:ADRESL registers will continue to contain
the value of the last completed conversion (or the last
value written to the ADRESH:ADRESL registers).
After the A/D conversion is aborted, a 2TAD wait is
required before the next acquisition is started. After
this 2TAD wait, acquisition on the selected channel is
automatically started.
In Figure 11-3 , after the G O bit is set, the firs t time seg-
mant has a min imum of TCY and a maximu m of TAD.

11.4.1 A/D RESULT REGISTERS
The ADRESH:ADRESL register pair is the location
where the 10-bit A/D result is loaded at the completion
of the A/D conversion. This register pair is 16-bits
wide. The A/D module gives the flexibility to left or right
justify the 10-bit result in the 16-bit result register. The
A/D Format Select bit (ADFM) controls this justifica-
tion. Figure 11-4 sho ws the oper ation of the A/D result
justification. The extra bits are loaded with ’0’s’. When
an A/D result will not overwrite these locations (A/D
disable), these registers may be used as two general
purpose 8-bit registers.
11.5 A/D Operation During Sleep
The A/D mod ule can operate during SLEEP mode. This
requires that the A/D clock source be set to RC
(ADCS1:ADCS0 = 11). When the RC clock source is
selected, the A/D module waits one instruction cycle
before starting the conversion. This allows the SLEEP
instruction to be executed, which eliminates all digital
s wit ching no ise from the con v e rsion. Wh en the con ver-
sion is completed the GO/DONE bit will be cleared and
the result loaded into the ADRES register. If the A/D
interrupt is enabled, the device will wake-up from
SLEEP. If the A/D interrupt is not enab led, the A/D mod-
ule will then be turned off, although the ADON bit will
remain set.
When the A/ D clo c k sou rce is a nother c loc k o ption (n ot
RC), a SLEEP instruction w ill cause the present con v er-
sion to b e aborted an d the A/D modul e to be turned off ,
though the ADON bit will remain set.
Turning off the A/D places the A/D module in its lowest
current consumption state.
11.6 Effects of a Reset
A device reset forces all registers to their reset state.
This forces the A/D module to be turned off, and any
con version is abo rted.
The value that is in the ADRESH:ADRESL registers is
not modified for a Power-on Reset. The
ADRESH:ADRESL registers w ill contain unkno wn data
after a Power-on Reset.
FIGURE 11-4: A/D RESULT JUSTIFICATION
Note: For the A/D module to operate in SLEEP,
the A/D clock source must be set to RC
(ADCS1:ADCS0 = 11). To allow the con-
version to occur during SLEEP, ensure the
SLEEP instruction immediately follows the
instruction that sets the GO/DONE bit.

12.0 SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE
CPU
These d evic es hav e a hos t of fe atures inten ded to max-
imize system reliability, minimize cost through elimina-
tion of external components, provide power saving
oper at ing mod es and o ffer code protection. These are:
• OSC Selection
• Reset
- Power-on Reset (POR)
- P o wer-up Timer (PWRT)
- Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
- Brown-out Reset (BOR)
• Interrupts
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)
• SLEEP
• Code protection
• ID locations
• In-Circuit Serial Programming
• Low Voltage In-Circuit Serial Programming
• In-Circuit Debugger
These devices have a watchdog timer, which can be
shut off only through configuration bits. It runs off its
own RC oscillator for added reliability. There are two
timers that offer neces sary delays on power-up . One is
the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST), intended to keep
the chi p in rese t until th e crystal osci llator is stab le. Th e
other is the Power-up Ti me r ( PWRT), which pro vi des a
fixed delay of 72 ms (nominal) on power-up only. It is
designed t o k eep th e pa rt in reset w hile the po we r su p-
ply stabilizes. With these two timers on-chip, most
applications need no external reset circuitry.
SLEEP mode is designed to offer a very low current
power-down mode. The user can wake-up from SLEEP
through external reset, Watchdog Timer Wake-up, or
through an interrupt. Sever al oscil lator opt ions 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.
Additional inf ormation on special f eatures is av ailable in
the PICmicro™ Mid-Range Reference Manual,
(DS33023).
12.1 Configuration Bits
The con figur ati on bits c an be progr a mmed (read as '0')
or left unprogrammed (read as '1') to select various
device configurations. These bits are mapped in pro-
gram 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 -
3FFF h), whic h can be ac cessed on ly dur ing progra m-
ming.

12.2 Oscillator Configurations
12.2.1 OSCILLATOR TYPES
The PIC16F 87X can be ope rated in f our diff e rent os cil-
lator modes. 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
12.2.2 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 12-1). The
PIC16F87X oscillator design requires the use of a par-
allel cut crystal. Use of a series cut crystal may give a
frequency out of the crystal manufacturers specifica-
tions. When in XT, LP or HS modes, the device can
have an external clock source to drive the OSC1/
CLKIN pin (Figure 12-2).

TABLE 12-2: CAPACITOR SELECTION FOR
CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR 12.2.3 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 resis-
tor (REXT) and c apaci tor (CEXT) v alues , and th e ope rat-
ing temperature. In addition to this, the oscillator
frequency will var y from unit to unit due to normal pro-
cess 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
vari ation du e to to leranc e of exter nal R and C com po-
nents used. Figure 12-3 shows how the R/C combina-
tion is connected to the PIC16F87X.

12.3 Reset
The PIC16F87X diff erentiates between various kinds of
reset:
• Power-on Reset (POR)
•MCLR
reset during normal operation
•MCLR reset during SLEEP
• WDT Reset (during normal operation)
• WDT Wake-up (during SLEEP)
• Brown-out Reset (BOR)
Some registers are not affected in any reset condition.
Their statu s is unknown on POR and uncha nged in an y
other reset. Most other registers are reset to a “reset
state” on Power-on Reset (POR), on the MCLR and
WDT Res et, on MCLR reset during SLEEP, and Brown-
out Reset (BOR). They are not affected by a WDT
Wake-up, which is viewed as the resumption of normal
oper ation. The T O and PD bits are s et or cleared diff er-
ently in different reset situations as indicated in
Table 12-4. These bits are used in software to deter-
mine the nature of the reset. See Table 12-6 for a full
description of reset states of all registers.
A simplifi ed b loc k diag ram of the on-ch ip res et circui t is
shown in Figure 12-4.
These devices have a MCLR noise filter in the MCLR
reset path. The filter will detect and ignore small pulses.
It should be noted that a WDT Reset
does not drive
MCLR pin low.

12.4 Power-On Reset (POR)
A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when
VDD rise is detected (in the range of 1.2V - 1.7V). To
take advantage of the POR, tie the MCLR pin directly
(or through a resistor) to VDD. This will eliminate exter-
nal R C co mp one nts u sua ll y n eeded to create a P o wer-
on Reset. A maximum rise time for VDD is specified.
See Electrical Specifications for details.
When the device starts normal operation (exits the
reset co ndi tion), device operati ng p arameters (v ol tage,
frequency, temperature,...) must b e met to ensure oper-
ation. If these conditions are not met, the device must
be held in reset until the operating conditions are met.
Brown-out Reset may be used to meet the start-up con-
ditions. For additional information, refer to Application
Note, AN007, “Power-up Trouble Shooting”,
(DS00007).
12.5 Power-up Timer (PWRT)
The Power-up Timer provides a fixed 72 ms nominal
time-out on power-up only from the POR. The Power-
up Timer operates on an internal RC oscillator. The
chip is ke pt in re set a s long as th e PWR T i s act ive. The
PWRT’s time delay allows VDD to rise to an acceptable
level. A configuration bit is provided to enable/disable
the PWRT.
The po wer-up tim e dela y will vary from chip to chip due
to VDD, temperature and process variation. See DC
parameters for details (TPWRT, parameter #33).
12.6 Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) provides 1024
oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delay after the
PWR T dela y i s ov er. This ensures th at the crystal os cil-
lator 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.
12.7 Brown-Out Reset (BOR)
The conf iguration b it, BODEN, ca n enable or disable
the Brown-out Reset circuit. If VDD falls below VBOR
(parameter D005, about 4V) for longer than TBOR
(parameter #35, about 100µS), the brown-out situa-
tion will reset the device. If VDD falls below VBOR for
less than TBOR, a reset may not occur.
Once the brown-out occu rs, the d evice will remain in
brown-out reset until VDD rises above VBOR. The
power-up timer then keeps the device in reset for
TPWRT (parameter #33, about 72mS). If VDD should
fall below VBOR during TPWRT, the brown-out reset
process w ill restar t when VDD rises above VBOR with
the power-up timer reset. The power-up timer is
always enabled when the brown-out reset circuit is
enabled regardless o f the state of the PWRT configu-
ration bit.
12.8 Time-out Sequence
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows: The
PWRT delay starts (if enabled) when a POR reset
occurs. Then OST starts counting 1024 oscillator
cycles when PWRT ends (LP, XT, HS). When the OST
ends, the device comes out of RESET.
If MCLR is kept low long enough, the time-outs will
expire. Bringing MCLR high w i ll beg in ex ecution im m e-
diately. This is useful for testin g purposes or to synchro-
nize more than one PIC16CXX device operating in
parallel.
Table 12-5 shows the reset conditions for the STATUS,
PCON and PC registers, while Table 12-6 shows the
reset conditions for all the registers.
12.9 Power Control/Status Register
(PCON)
The Power Control/Status Register, PCON, has up to
two bits depending upon the device.
Bit0 is Brown-out Reset Status bit, BOR. Bit BOR is
unknown on a Power-on Reset. It must then be set by
the use r and chec ke d on su bsequent resets t o see i f bit
BOR cleared, indicating a BOR occurred. The BOR bit
is a "don’t care" bit and is not nece ssarily pre dictab le if
the Brown-out Reset circuitry is disabled (by clearing
bit BODEN in the Configuration Word).
Bit1 is POR (P ower-on Reset Status bit). It is cleared on
a Power-on Reset and unaffected otherwise. The user
must set this bit following a Power-on Reset.

12.10 Interrupts
The PIC16F87X family has up to 14 sources of inter-
rupt. The interrupt control register (INTCON) records
indivi dual i nterrupt reques ts in fla g bits . I t al so ha s ind i-
vidual 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 in terrupts . W hen bit GIE is enab le d, and a n
interrupt’ s flag bit and mas k bit are set, the interrupt wil l
vector immediately. Individual interrupts can be dis-
abled through their corresponding enable bits in vari-
ous registers. Individual interrupt bits are set
regardless of the status of the GIE bit. The GIE bit is
cleared on reset.
The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits
the interrupt routine, as well as sets the GIE bit, which
re-enables interrupts.
The RB0/INT pin interrupt, the RB port change in terrupt
and the TMR0 overflow interrupt flags are contained in
the INTCON register.
The peripheral interrupt flags are contained in the spe-
cial function registers , PIR1 and PIR2. The correspond-
ing interrupt enable bits are contained in special
function registers, PIE1 and PIE2, and the peripheral
interrupt enable bit i s co nta ine d in sp eci al fu nction re g-
ister INTCON.
When an interrupt is responded to, the GIE bit is
cleared to disable any further interrupt, the return
address is pu sh ed onto the sta ck and the PC is lo aded
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 recursive interrupt s.
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. The latency
is the s am e for one or tw o cy cl e in structions. Indivi dual
interrupt flag bits are set regardless of the status of
their corresponding mask bit or the GIE bit
FIGURE 12-9: INTERRUPT LOGIC
Note: Indiv idual interrupt flag bits are set, regard-
les s of the status of their corresponding
mask bit or the GIE bit.

12.10.1 INT INTERRUPT
External interrupt on the RB0/INT pin is edge triggere d,
either rising, if bit INTEDG (OPTION_REG<6>) is set,
or falling, if the INTEDG bit is clear. When a valid edge
appears on the RB0/INT pin, flag bit INTF
(INTCON<1>) is set. This interrupt can be disabled by
clearing enable bit INTE (INTCON<4>). Flag bit INTF
must be clea red in s oftware i n the in terrupt service rou-
tine before re-enabling this interrupt. The INT interrupt
can w ake-up the proces sor from SLEE P, if bit INTE w as
set prior to goin g into SLEEP. The status of gl obal inter-
rupt enable bit GIE decides whether or not the proces-
sor b ra nch es t o t he in t errupt vector followin g wa ke-u p.
See Section 12.13 for details on SLEEP mode.
12.10.2 TMR0 INTERRUPT
An overf l ow (F F h → 00h) in the TMR0 register will set
flag bit T0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit T0IE
(INTCON<5>). (Section 5.0)
12.10.3 PORTB INTCON CHANGE
An input change on PORTB<7:4> sets flag bit RBIF
(INTCON<0>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled
by setting/clearing enable bit RBIE (INTCON<4>).
(Section 3.2)
12.11 Context Saving During Interrupts
During an interrupt, only the return PC value is saved
on th e stack. Typicall y, users m a y wi sh to sa v e key re g-
isters during an interrupt, (i.e., W register and STATUS
register). This will have to be implemented in software.
F or the PIC 16F873 /874 de v ices , the regi ster W_TEM P
must be defined in both banks 0 and 1 and must be
defined at the same offset from th e b an k b as e a dd res s
(i.e., If W_TEMP is defined at 0x20 in bank 0, it must
also be defined at 0xA0 in bank 1.). The registers,
PCLATH_TEMP and STATUS_TEMP, are only defined
in bank 0.
Since the upper 16 bytes of each bank are common in
the PIC16F876/877 devices, temporary holding regis-
ters W_TEMP, STATUS_TEMP and PCLATH_TEMP
should be placed in here. These 16 locations don’t
require banking and therefore, make it easier for con-
text save and restore. The same basic code in
Example 12-1 can be used.
EXAMPLE 12-1: SAVING STATUS, W, AND PCLATH REGISTERS IN RAM
MOVWF W_TEMP ;Copy W to TEMP register
SWAPF STATUS,W ;Swap status to be saved into W
CLRF STATUS ;bank 0, regardless of current bank, Clears IRP,RP1,RP0

12.12 Watchdog Timer (WDT)
The Watchdog Timer is as a free running on-chip RC
oscillator which does not require any external compo-
nents . T his RC os cilla tor is s epar ate from the R C osci l-
lator of the OSC1/CLKIN pin. That means that the WDT
will run, even if the clock on the OSC1/CLKIN and
OSC2/CLKOUT pins of the device has been stopped,
fo r example, by execution of a SLEEP instruction.
During normal operation, a WDT time-out generates a
device RESET (W atchdog Timer Reset). If the de vice is
in SLEEP mode, a WDT time-out causes the device to
wake-up and continue with normal operation (Watch-
dog Timer W ake-up). The T O bit in the STATUS register
will be cleared upon a Watchdog Timer time-out.
The WDT can be permanently disabled by clearing
configuration bit WDTE (Section 12.1).
WDT time-out period values may be found in the Elec-
trical Specifications section under parameter #31. Val-
ues for the WDT prescaler (actually a postscaler, but
shared with the Timer0 prescaler) may be assigned
using the OPTION_REG register.
.
FIGURE 12-10: WATCHDOG TIMER BLOC K DIAGRAM
FIGURE 12-11: SUMMARY OF WATCHDOG TIMER REGISTERS
Note: The CLRWDT and SLEEP instructions clear
the WDT an d th e postscaler, if assi gn ed to
the WDT, and pre vent it from tim ing out and

Note: When a CLRWDT instruction is executed
and the prescaler is assigned to the WDT,
the prescaler count will be cleared, but the
presc al er ass ig nme nt is not changed.

12.13 Power-down Mode (SLEEP)
Power-down mode is entered by executing a SLEEP
instruction.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but
ke eps running , the PD bit (STATUS<3>) is cl ea red, th e
TO (STATUS<4>) bit is set, and the oscillator driver is
tur ned off. The I/O por ts maintain the status they had
before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving
high, low, or hi-impedance).
For lowest current consumption in this mode, place all
I/O pins at either VDD or VSS, ensure no external cir-
cuitry is drawing current from the I/O pin, power-down
the A/D and disable external clocks. Pull all I/O pins
that are hi-impedance inputs, high or low externally, to
avoid switchin g c urre nts ca us ed by floating inp uts. The
T0CKI input should also be at VDD or VSS 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).
12.13.1 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 INT pin, RB port change or some
Peripheral Interrupts.
External MCLR Reset will cause a device reset. All
other events are considered a continuation of program
execution and cause a "wake-up". The TO and PD bits
in the STATUS register can be used to determine the
cause of device reset. The PD bit, which is set on
power-up, is cleared when SLEEP is invoked. The TO
bit is cleared if a WDT time-out occurred and caused
wake-up.
The following peripheral interrupts can wake the device
from SLEEP:
1. PSP read or write.
2. TMR1 interrupt. Timer1 must be operating as
an asynchronous counter.
3. CCP capture mode interrupt.
4. Special event trigger (Timer1 in asynchronous
mode using an external clock).
5. SSP (Start/Stop) bit detect interrupt.
6. SSP transmit or receiv e in slav e mode (SPI/I2C).
7. USART RX or TX (synchronous slave mode).
8. A/D conversion (when A/D clock source is RC).
9. EEPROM write operation completion
Other pe ripherals can not gener ate interrupts s ince dur-
ing SLEEP, no on-chip clocks are present.
When th e SLEEP inst ruction is being e x ecuted, the ne xt
instruction (PC + 1) is pre-fetched. For the device to
wake-up through an interrupt event, the correspond ing
inte rrup t ena ble bit mus t be set (enabled ). Wake-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 instr u ction . If the GIE bi t is
set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after
the SLEEP instruction and then branches to the inter-
ru pt ad dress (00 04h ). In ca ses wh ere the execution of
the instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the
user shoul d have a NOP after the SLEEP instruction.
12.13.2 WAKE-UP USING INTERRUPTS
When global interrupts are disabled (GIE cleared) and
any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit
and inte rrupt flag bit se t, one o f the f o llo wing w ill o ccur:
• If the inte rrupt occurs before the execution of a
SLEEP instruction, the SLEEP instruction wi ll com -
plete as a NOP. Therefore, the WDT and WDT
pos tscaler wi ll not be cleared, the TO bit will not
be set and PD bits will not be cleare d.
• If the inte rrupt occurs during or after the execu-
tion of a SLEEP instruction, t he device will imme-
diately wake up from slee p. The SLEEP instruction
will be completely executed before the wake-up.
Therefore, the WDT and WDT postscaler will be
cleared, the TO bit will be set and the PD bit will
be cleared.
Even if the flag bits were checked before executing a
SLEEP instruction, it may be possible for flag bits to
become set before the SLEEP instruction completes. To
determine whether a SLEEP instr uction executed , test
the PD bit. If the PD bit is set, the SLEEP instruction
was executed as a NOP.
To ensure that the WDT is cleared, a CLRWDT inst ruc-
tion should be executed before a SLEEP instruction.

When the DEBUG bit in the configuration word is pro-
grammed to a ’0’, the In-C ircuit Debugge r funct ional ity
is enab led. This function al lows sim ple debu gging func-
tions when used with MPLAB. When the microcontrol-

not available for general use. Table 12-7 shows which
features are consumed by the background debugger.
TABLE 12-7: DEBUGGER RESOURCES
To use the In-Circuit Debugger function of the micro-
controller, the design must implement In-Circuit Serial
Programming connections to MCLR/VPP, VDD, GND,
RB7 and RB6. This will interface to the In-Circuit
Debugger module available from Microchip or one of
the third party development tool companies.
12.15 Program Verification/Code Protection
If the code protection bit(s) have not been pro-
grammed, the on-chip program memory can be read
out for verificati on purposes.
12.16 ID Locations
F our memory locatio ns (2000h - 200 3h) are design ated
as ID locations where the user can store checksum or
other code-identification numbers. These locations are
not accessible during normal execution but are read-
able and writable during program/verify. It is recom-
mended that only the 4 least significant bits of the ID
loc ation are used.

12.17 In-Circuit Serial Programming
PIC16F87X microcontrollers can be serially pro-
grammed while in the end application circuit. This is
simply d one with two lines for clock an d da ta 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 firm-
ware to be programmed.
When using ICSP, the part must be supplied 4.5V to
5.5V if a bulk erase will be executed. This includes
reprogramming of the code protect both from an on-
state to off-state. For all other cases of ICSP, the part
may be programmed at the normal operating voltages.
This mea ns c ali br ation values, unique us er ID s or us er
code can be reprogrammed or added.
For complete details of serial programming, please
refer to the In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP™)
Guide, (DS30277B).
12.18 Low Voltage ICSP Programming
The LVP bit of the configuration word enables low volt-
age ICSP programming. This mode allows the micro-
controller to be programmed via ICSP using a VDD
source in the operatin g vol tage range . This only me ans
that VPP does not have to be brought to VIHH, but can
instead be left at the normal operating voltage. In this
mode, the RB3/PGM pin is dedicated to the program-
ming function and ceases to be a general purpose I/O
pin. During programming, VDD is applied to the MCLR
pin. To enter programming mode , V DD m us t be app lie d
to the RB3/PGM provided the LVP bit is set. The LVP
bit defaults to on (‘1’) from the factory.
If low-voltage programming mode is not used, the LVP
bit can b e progra mmed to a '0' an d RB3/PGM be comes
a digital I/O pin. However , the LVP bit may only be pro-
grammed when programming is entered with VIHH on
MCLR. The LVP bit can only be charged when using
high voltage on MCLR.
It should be noted, that once the LVP bit is programmed
to 0, only the high voltage programming mode is avail-
able and only high voltage programming mode can be
used to program the device.
When using low voltage ICSP, the part must be sup-
plied 4.5 V to 5 .5V if a b ulk erase wi ll b e exe cu ted. This
includes reprogramming of the code protect bits from
an on-state to off-state. For all other cases of low volt-
age ICSP, the part may be programmed at the normal
operating voltage. This means calibration values,
unique us er ID s or us er co de c an be repro gram me d or
added.
Note 1: The high voltage programming mode is
alwa ys av ailable , regardless of the stat e of
the LVP bit, by apply ing VIHH to th e MCLR
pin.
2: While in low voltage ICSP mode, the RB3
pin can no longer be used as a general
purpose I/O pin.
3: When using low voltage ICSP program-
ming (LVP) and the pull-ups on PORTB
are enabled, bit 3 in the TRISB register
must be cleared to disable the pull-up on
RB3 and ensure the proper operation of
the device.

13.0 INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY
Each PIC16CXX instruction is a 14-bit word divided
into an OPCODE which specifies the instruction type
and one or more operands which further specify the
oper at ion of the instructio n. The PIC 16CXX ins tructio n
set summary in Table 13-2 lists byte-oriented, bit-ori-
ented, and literal and control operations. Table 13-1
shows the opcode field descriptions.
For byte-oriented instructions, ’f’ represents a file reg-
ister designator and ’d’ represents a destination desig-
nator. The file register designator specifies which file
register is to be used by the instruction.
The desti nation designator specifies where the result of
the operation is to be placed. If ’d’ is zero, the result is
placed in the W regi ster . If ’d ’ is one , the result i s placed
in the file register specified in the instruction.
For bit-oriented instructions, ’b’ represents a bit field
design ator which select s t he n um ber of the bit a ffected
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
eigh t or eleven bit constan t or l i teral value.
TABLE 13-1: OPCODE FIELD
DESCRIPTIONS
The ins truc ti o n se t is hig hl y orthogon a l an d is grou p ed
into three basic categories:
•Byte-oriented operations
•Bit-oriented operations
•Literal and cont r ol operations
All instructions are executed within one single instruc-
tion cycle, unless a conditional test is true or the pro-
gram counter is changed as a result of an instruction.
In thi s case, t he execut ion takes t wo instruc tio n cycl es
with th e se co nd c y c le executed as a NOP. One instruc-
tion cycle consists of four oscillator periods. Thus, for
an osci llator frequ ency of 4 MHz, the normal instructio n
e xecution time i s 1 µs . If a con dition al test is true or the
program counter is changed as a result of an instruc-
tion, the instruction execution time is 2 µs.
Table 13-2 lists the instructions recognized by the
MPASM assembler.
Figur e 13-1 sh ows the g eneral f ormats that th e instruc-
tions 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 lo w by an external
device, the data will be written back with a ’0’.
2: If this instruction is ex ec uted 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.
Note: Addit ional inf ormation on the mid -range instruction set is a vailab le in the PICmicro™ Mid -Range MCU F amily
Reference Manual (DS33023).

14.1 MPLAB Integrated Development
Environment Software
The MPLAB IDE software brings an ease of software
development previously unseen in the 8-bit microcon-
troller market. MPLAB is a Windows-based applica-
tion which contains:
• Multiple functionality
-editor
- simulator
- programmer (sold separately)
- emulator (sold separately)
• A full featured editor
• A project manager
• Customizable tool bar and key mapping
• A status bar
• On-line help
MPLAB allows you to:
• Edit your source files (either assembly or ‘C’)
• One touch assemble (or compile) and download
to PICmicro tools (automatically updates all
proje ct information)
• Debug usi ng:
- source files
- absolute listing file
- object code
The ability to use MPLAB with Microchip’s simulator,
MPLAB-SIM, allows a consi stent platform and the abi l-
ity to easily switch from the cost-effective simulator to
the full featured emulator with minimal retraining.
14.2 MPASM Assembler
MPASM is a full f eatured unive rsal macro as sembler f or
all PICmicro MCU’s. It can produce absolute code
directly in the form of HEX files for device program-
mers, or it can generate relocatable objects for
MPLINK.
MPASM has a command line interface and a Windows
shell and c an be u sed a s a stand alone appli catio n o n a
Windows 3.x or greater system. MPASM generates
relocatable object files, Intel standard HEX files, MAP
files to detail memory usage and symbol reference, an
absolute LST file which con t ai ns so urce li nes an d gen-
erated machine code, and a COD file for MPLAB
debugging.
MPASM features inc lud e:
• MPASM and MPLINK are integrated into MPLAB
projects.
• MPASM allows user defined macros to be created
for streamlined assembly.
• MPASM allows conditional assembly for multi pur-
pose source files.
• MPASM directiv es allo w c omplete cont rol o ve r the
assem b l y proces s .
14.3 MPLAB-C17 and MPLAB- C18
C Compilers
The MPLAB-C 17 and MPLAB -C18 Code De v elop ment
Systems are complete ANSI ‘C’ compilers and inte-
grated development environments for Microchip’s
PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX family of microcontrol-
lers, respectively. These compilers provide powerful
integration capabilities and ease of use not found with
other co mpi le rs .
For easier source level debugging, the compilers pro-
vide symbol information that is compatible with the
MPLAB IDE memory display.
PIC16F87X
DS30292B-page 146 1999 Microchip Technology Inc.
14.4 MPLINK/MPLIB Linker/Librarian
MPLINK is a relocatable linker for MPASM and
MPLAB-C17 and MPLAB-C18. It can link relocatable
objects from assembly or C source files along with pre-
compiled libraries using directives from a linker script.
MPLIB is a librarian for pre-compiled code to be used
with MPLINK. When a routine from a library is called
from another source file, only the modules that contains
that routine will be linked in with the application. This
allows l arg e li brarie s t o be u se d e ffi ci en tl y i n many di f -
ferent applications. MPLIB manages the creation and
modification of library files.
MPLINK features include:
• MPLINK works with MPASM and MPLAB-C17
and MPLAB-C18.
• MPLINK allows all memory areas to be defined as
sections to provide link-time flexibility.
MPLIB features include:
• MPLIB makes linkin g ea sie r bec ause single librar-
ies can be included instead of many smaller files.
• MPLIB hel ps k ee p code main tainab l e b y g roupin g
related modules together.
• MPLIB commands allow libraries to be created
and modules to be added, listed, replaced,
deleted, or extracted.
14.5 MPLAB-SIM Software Simulator
The MPLAB-SIM Software Simulator allows code
development in a PC host environment by simulating
the PICmicro series microcontrollers on an instruction

Note 1: When A/D is off, it will not consume any current other than minor leakage current.
The power-down current spec includes any such leakage from the A/D module.
2: VREF current is from RA3 pin or VDD pin, whichever is selected as reference input.
3: The A/D conversion result never decreases with an increase in the Input Voltage, and has no missing codes.
