Power-down mode is entered by executing a SLEEP
instruction.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but
keeps running, the PD bit (RCON<2>) is cleared, the
TO bit (RCON<3>) is set and the oscillator driver is
turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had
before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving
high, low or high-impedance).
For lowest current consumption in this mode, place all
I/O pins at either V
is drawing current from the I/O pin, power-down the A/D
and disable external clocks. Pull all I/O pins that are
high-impedance inputs, high or low externally, to avoid
switching currents caused by floating inputs. The T0CKI
input should also be at V
consumption. The contribution from on-chip pull-ups on
PORTB should be considered.
The MCLR pin must be at a logic high level (V

External MCLR Reset will cause a device Reset. All
other events are considered a continuation of program
execution and will cause a “wake-up”. The TO and PD
bits in the RCON register can be used to determine the
cause of the 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).
When the SLEEP instruction is being executed, the next
instruction (PC + 2) is prefetched. For the device to
wake-up through an interrupt event, the corresponding
interrupt enable bit must 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 instruction. If the GIE bit is
set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after
the SLEEP instruction and then branches to the inter-
rupt address. In cases where the execution of the
instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the user
should have a NOP after the SLEEP instruction.
24.3.2
When global interrupts are disabled (GIE cleared) and
any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit
and interrupt flag bit set, one of the following will occur:
• If an interrupt condition (interrupt flag bit and
• If the interrupt condition occurs during or after
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 instruction 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
instruction should be executed before a SLEEP
instruction.
interrupt enable bits are set) occurs before the
execution of a SLEEP instruction, the SLEEP
instruction will complete as a NOP. Therefore, the
WDT and WDT postscaler will not be cleared, the
TO bit will not be set and the PD bit will not be
cleared.
the execution of a SLEEP instruction, the device
will immediately wake-up from Sleep. 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.
