Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
• Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.

• Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.

• There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.

• Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.

• Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.

The OSCCON register (Register 2-2) selects the Active
Clock mode. It is primarily used in controlling clock
switching in power-managed modes. Its use is discussed
in Section 2.7.1 “Oscillator Control Register”.
The OSCTUNE register (Register 2-1) is used to select
the system clock frequency from the primary oscillator
source by selecting combinations of prescaler/postscaler
settings and enabling the PLL. Its use is described in
Section 2.6.1 “PLL Block”.

it does not change for any other Reset event.

Table operations work with byte entities. A table block
containing data, rather than program instructions, is not
required to be word-aligned. Therefore, a table block can
start and end at any byte address. If a table write is being

program instructions will need to be word-aligned.

18.7.2 FULL-DUPLEX MODE

In Full-Duplex mode (MACON3<0> = 1), hardware flow
control is implemented by means of transmitting pause
control frames, as defined by the IEEE 802.3 specifica-
tion. Pause control frames are 64-byte frames consisting
of the reserved Multicast destination address of
01-80-C2-00-00-01, the source address of the sender, a
special pause opcode, a 2-byte pause timer value and
padding/CRC.
Normally, when a pause control frame is received by a
MAC, the MAC will finish the packet it is transmitting
and then stop transmitting any new frames. The pause
timer value will be extracted from the control frame and

The Magic Packet pattern consists of a sync pattern of
six FFh bytes, followed by 16 repeats of the destination
address (Figure 18-15). The Magic Packet filter checks
the destination address and data fields of all incoming

19.4.4.2 Clock Stretching for 10-Bit Slave
Receive Mode (SEN = 1)
In 10-Bit Slave Receive mode during the address
sequence, clock stretching automatically takes place
but CKP is not cleared. During this time, if the UA bit is
set after the ninth clock, clock stretching is initiated.
The UA bit is set after receiving the upper byte of the
10-bit address and following the receive of the second
byte of the 10-bit address with the R/W bit cleared to
‘0’. The release of the clock line occurs upon updating
SSPxADD. Clock stretching will occur on each data
receive sequence as described in 7-bit mode.
Note: If the user polls the UA bit and clears it by
updating the SSPxADD register before the
falling edge of the ninth clock occurs and if
the user hasn’t cleared the BF bit by read-
ing the SSPxBUF register before that time,
then the CKP bit will still NOT be asserted
low. Clock stretching on the basis of the
state of the BF bit only occurs during a
data sequence, not an address sequence.

EXAMPLE 20-1: CALCULATING BAUD RATE ERROR
For a device with FOSC of 16 MHz, desired baud rate of 9600, Asynchronous mode, 8-bit BRG:
Desired Baud Rate = FOSC/(64 ([SPBRGHx:SPBRGx] + 1))
Solving for SPBRGHx:SPBRGx:
X = ((FOSC/Desired Baud Rate)/64) – 1
= ((16000000/9600)/64) – 1
= [25.042] = 25
Calculated Baud Rate = 16000000/(64 (25 + 1))
= 9615
Error = (Calculated Baud Rate – Desired Baud Rate)/Desired Baud Rate
= (9615 – 9600)/9600 = 0.16%

The Configuration bits can be programmed (read as

‘0’) or left unprogrammed (read as ‘1’) to select various
device configurations. These bits are mapped starting
at program memory location 300000h. A complete list
is shown in Table 24-1. A detailed explanation of the
various bit functions is provided in Register 24-1
through Register 24-8.

Note 1: The power-down current in Sleep mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power-down current is measured with
the part in Sleep mode, with all I/O pins in high-impedance state and tied to VDD or VSS and all features that add delta
current disabled (such as WDT, Timer1 oscillator, etc.).
2: The supply current is mainly a function of operating voltage, frequency and mode. Other factors, such as I/O pin loading
and switching rate, oscillator type and circuit, internal code execution pattern and temperature, also have an impact on
the current consumption.
The test conditions for all IDD measurements in active operation mode are:
OSC1 = external square wave, from rail-to-rail; all I/O pins tri-stated, pulled to VDD;
MCLR = VDD; WDT enabled/disabled as specified.
3: Standard, low-cost 32 kHz crystals have an operating temperature range of -10°C to +70°C. Extended temperature
crystals are available at a much higher cost.
4: Voltage regulator disabled (ENVREG = 0, tied to VSS).
5: Voltage regulator enabled (ENVREG = 1, tied to VDD).
6: For ΔIETH, the specified current includes current sunk through TPOUT+ and TPOUT-. LEDA and LEDB are disabled for
all testing.

Note 1: Instruction cycle period (TCY) equals four times the input oscillator time base period for all configurations
except PLL. All specified values are based on characterization data for that particular oscillator type under
standard operating conditions with the device executing code. Exceeding these specified limits may result
in an unstable oscillator operation and/or higher than expected current consumption. All devices are tested
to operate at “min.” values with an external clock applied to the OSC1/CLKI pin. When an external clock
input is used, the “max.” cycle time limit is “DC” (no clock) for all devices.

Note 1: As a transmitter, the device must provide this internal minimum delay time to bridge the undefined region

2: A Fast mode I2C™ bus device can be used in a Standard mode I2C bus system, but the requirement,
TSU:DAT ≥ 250 ns, must then be met. This will automatically be the case if the device does not stretch the
LOW period of the SCLx signal. If such a device does stretch the LOW period of the SCLx signal, it must
output the next data bit to the SDAx line,
TR max. + TSU:DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns (according to the Standard mode I2C bus specification), before
the SCLx line is released.
