System Integration Module (SIM)
Protecting flags in break mode ensures that set flags will not be cleared
while in break mode. This protection allows registers to be freely read
and written during break mode without losing status flag information.
Setting the BCFE bit enables the clearing mechanisms. Once cleared in
break mode, a flag remains cleared even when break mode is exited.
Status flags with a 2-step clearing mechanism — for example, a read of
one register followed by the read or write of another — are protected,
even when the first step is accomplished prior to entering break mode.
Upon leaving break mode, execution of the second step will clear the flag
as normal.
9.7 Low-Power Modes
Executing the WAIT or STOP instruction puts the MCU in a low power-
consumption mode for standby situations. The SIM holds the CPU in a
non-clocked state. The operation of each of these modes is described in
this section. Both STOP and WAIT clear the interrupt mask (I) in the
condition code register, allowing interrupts to occur.
9.7.1 Wait Mode
In wait mode, the CPU clocks are inactive while one set of peripheral
clocks continues to run. Figure 9-12 shows the timing for wait mode
entry.
A module that is active during wait mode can wake up the CPU with an
interrupt if the interrupt is enabled. Stacking for the interrupt begins one
cycle after the WAIT instruction during which the interrupt occurred.
Refer to the wait mode subsection of each module to see if the module
is active or inactive in wait mode. Some modules can be programmed to
be active in wait mode.
Wait mode can also be exited by a reset or break. A break interrupt
during wait mode sets the SIM break stop/wait bit, SBSW, in the SIM
break status register (SBSR). If the COP disable bit, COPD, in the
configuration register is logic 0, then the computer operating properly
module (COP) is enabled and remains active in wait mode.
