PTC3 pin low when entering monitor mode causes a bypass of a divide-
by-two stage at the oscillator only if V
TST
is applied to IRQ. In this event,
the CGMOUT frequency is equal to the CGMXCLK frequency, and the
OSC1 input directly generates internal bus clocks. In this case, the
OSC1 signal must have a 50% duty cycle at maximum bus frequency.
If entering monitor mode without high voltage on IRQ (above condition
set 2 or 3, where applied voltage is either V
DD
or V
SS
), then all port C pin
requirements and conditions, including the PTC3 frequency divisor
selection, are not in effect. This is to reduce circuit requirements when
performing in-circuit programming.
NOTE: If the reset vector is blank and monitor mode is entered, the chip will see
an additional reset cycle after the initial POR reset. Once the part has
been programmed, the traditional method of applying a voltage, V
TST
, to
IRQ must be used to enter monitor mode.
The COP module is disabled in monitor mode based on these
conditions:
If monitor mode was entered as a result of the reset vector being
blank (above condition set 2 or 3), the COP is always disabled
regardless of the state of IRQ or RST.
If monitor mode was entered with V
TST
on IRQ (condition set 1),
then the COP is disabled as long as V
TST
is applied to either IRQ
or RST.
The second condition states that as long as V
TST
is maintained on the
IRQ
pin after entering monitor mode, or if V
TST
is applied to RST after
the initial reset to get into monitor mode (when V
TST
was applied to IRQ),
then the COP will be disabled. In the latter situation, after V
TST
is applied
to the RST
pin, V
TST
can be removed from the IRQ pin in the interest of
freeing the IRQ
for normal functionality in monitor mode.
Figure 15-2 shows a simplified diagram of the monitor mode entry when
the reset vector is blank and just 1 x V
DD
voltage is applied to the IRQ
pin. An external oscillator of 9.8304 MHz is required for a baud rate of
9600, as the internal bus frequency is automatically set to the external
frequency divided by four.
