7.4.2 Shifting to HALT/STOP mode after starting operation 
Perform one of the following processing when shifting to HALT/STOP mode immediately after setting the RTCE bit to 1. 
However, after setting the RTCE bit to 1, this processing is not required when shifting to HALT/STOP mode after the 
first INTRTC interrupt has occurred. 
• Shifting to HALT/STOP mode when at least two input clocks (f
RTC) have elapsed after setting the RTCE bit to 1 (see 
Figure 7-20, Example 1). 
• Checking by polling the RWST bit to become 1, after setting the RTCE bit to 1 and then setting the RWAIT bit to 1.  
Afterward, setting the RWAIT bit to 0 and shifting to HALT/STOP mode after checking again by polling that the 
RWST bit has become 0 (see Figure 7-20, Example 2).
