11.2 Input Capture Operation During

Sleep and Idle Modes

An input capture event will generate a device wake-up

or interrupt, if enabled, if the device is in CPU Idle or

Sleep mode.

Independent of the timer being enabled, the input

capture module will wake-up from the CPU Sleep or

Idle mode when a capture event occurs, if

ICM<2:0> = 111 and the interrupt enable bit is

asserted. The same wake-up can generate an inter-

rupt, if the conditions for processing the interrupt have

been satisfied. The wake-up feature is useful as a

method of adding extra external pin interrupts.

11.2.1 INPUT CAPTURE IN CPU SLEEP

MODE

CPU Sleep mode allows input capture module opera-

tion with reduced functionality. In the CPU Sleep

mode, the ICI<1:0> bits are not applicable, and the

input capture module can only function as an external

interrupt source.

The capture module must be configured for interrupt

only on the rising edge (ICM<2:0> = 111), in order for

the input capture module to be used while the device

is in Sleep mode. The prescale settings of 4:1 or 16:1

are not applicable in this mode.

11.2.2 INPUT CAPTURE IN CPU IDLE

MODE

CPU Idle mode allows input capture module operation

with full functionality. In the CPU Idle mode, the interrupt

mode selected by the ICI<1:0> bits are applicable, as

well as the 4:1 and 16:1 capture prescale settings,

which are defined by control bits ICM<2:0>. This mode

requires the selected timer to be enabled. Moreover, the

ICSIDL bit must be asserted to a logic ‘0’.

If the input capture module is defined as

ICM<2:0> = 111 in CPU Idle mode, the input capture

pin will serve only as an external interrupt pin.

11.3 Input Capture Interrupts

The input capture channels have the ability to generate

an interrupt, based upon the selected number of cap-

ture events. The selection number is set by control bits

ICI<1:0> (ICxCON<6:5>).

Each channel provides an interrupt flag (ICxIF) bit. The

respective capture channel interrupt flag is located in

the corresponding IFSx status register.

Enabling an interrupt is accomplished via the respec-

tive capture channel interrupt enable (ICxIE) bit. The

capture interrupt enable bit is located in the

corresponding IEC Control register.
