13. Module: UART
When the UART is operating in 8-bit mode
(PDSEL = 0x) and using the IrDA encoder/decoder
(IREN = 1), the module incorrectly transmits a data
payload of 80h as 00h.
Work around
None.

14. Module: Internal Voltage Regulator
When the VREGS bit (RCON<8>) is set to a logic
‘0’, device may Reset and higher sleep current
may be observed.
Work around
Ensure VREGS bit (RCON<8>) is set to a logic ‘1’
for device Sleep mode operation.

15. Module: PSV Operations
An address error trap occurs in certain addressing
modes when accessing the first four bytes of an
PSV page. This occurs only when using the
following addressing modes:
• MOV.D
• Register Indirect Addressing (word or byte
mode) with pre/post-decrement
Work around
Do not perform PSV accesses to any of the first
four bytes using the above addressing modes. For
applications using the C language, MPLAB C30
version 3.11 or higher, provides the following
command-line switch that implements a work
around for the erratum.
-merrata=psv_trap
Refer to the readme.txt file in the MPLAB C30
v3.11 tool suite for further details.

16. Module: I
2
C
When the I
2
C module is configured as a 10-bit
slave with an address of 0x02, the I2CxRCV
register content for the lower address byte is 0x01
rather than 0x02; however, the module
acknowledges both address bytes.
Work around
None.

17. Module: I
2
C
With the I
2
C module enabled, the PORT bits and
external interrupt input functions (if any)
associated with the SCL and SDA pins do not
reflect the actual digital logic levels on the pins.
Work around
If the SDA and/or SCL pins need to be polled,
these pins should be connected to other port pins
in order to be read correctly. This issue does not
affect the operation of the I
2
C module.

18. Module: I

C
In 10-bit Addressing mode, some address
matches do not set the RBF flag or load the
receive register I2CxRCV, if the lower address
byte matches the reserved addresses. In
particular, these include all addresses with the
form XX0000XXXX and XX1111XXXX, with the
following exceptions:
• 001111000X
• 011111001X
• 101111010X
• 111111011X
Work around
Ensure that the lower address byte in 10-bit
Addressing mode does not match any 7-bit
reserved addresses.
