Power Management
IDLE Mode
An instruction setting PCON.0 causes the device go into the idle mode, the internal clock is
gated off to the CPU but not to the interrupt, timer, PCA, SPI, ADC, WDT and serial port
functions.
There are two ways to terminate the idle. Activation of any enabled interrupt will cause
PCON.0 to be cleared by hardware in order to terminating the idle mode. The interrupt will be
serviced, and following RETI instruction: the next instruction to be executed will be performed
right after the instruction that puts the device into idle. Another way to wake-up from idle is to
pull pin RST high to generate internal hardware reset.
Divider for system clock
A clock divider(CLKDIV) in the frond end of the device is designed to slow down the operation
speed of MPC82x54A, and by doing that is to save the operating power dynamically. Different
from the same register in MPC82x54A MCU, the content in PCON2 is always effective without
the need to operate in IDLE mode.
