1. Introduction to PIC microcontroller
• PIC is a family of modified Harvard architecture microcontrollers
made by Microchip Technology
• The PIC1650 was originally developed by General Instruments
• The name PIC initially referred to "Peripheral Interface
Controller"

PIC speed
• Can use crystal, clock oscillator, or even an RC circuit
• Some PICs have a built‐in 4MHz RC clock, not very accurate,
but requires no external components
• Instruction speed = ¼ clock speed
– 12C50x 4MHz
– 12C67x 10MHz
– 16Cxxx 20MHz
– 17C4x/17C7xxx 33MHz

PIC Clock
Three ways to
provide the
clock signal
to a PIC
PIC’s program memory
• PICs have two difference types of program
storage:
– EPROM (Erasable Programmable ROM)
• need high voltage from programmer to program (~13V)
• need windowed chips and UV light to erase
• PIC examples: any ‘C’ part 12C50x, 17C7xx,…
– FLASH
• rewriteable
• much faster to develop on
• PIC examples: any ‘F’ part 16F84, 16F87x, 18Fxxx

PIC16C8X PINOUT DESCRIPTION ..
Architecture of the PIC16F84
Buses: Communication lines for transferring data within the
processor.
Oscillator: Used to drive the microprocessor, clocking data and
instructions in the processor.
Timing: The PIC has an internal divide by 4 whereby 4 oscillator
pulses form one clock pulse. This makes instruction times easy to
calculate.
– Most instructions (except calls and returns and other instructions
involving jumps and branches) take one clock cycle, so with a 4MHz
oscillator (divided by 4), instructions take 1s.

PIC16F84 Memory
There are two memory blocks in the PIC16C84;
program memory and data memory.
• Each block has its own bus, so that access to each can occur
during the same clock cycle.
• The data memory can be further broken down into general
purpose memory and special purpose registers

DIRECT/INDIRECT ADDRESSING

indirect addressing
movlw 0x20 ;initialize pointer
movwf FSR ;to RAM
NEXT clrf INDF ;clear INDF register
incf FSR ;inc pointer
btfss FSR,4 ;all done?
goto NEXT ;NO, clear next
CONTINUE
: ;YES, continue
• An effective 9‐bit address is obtained by concatenating the 8‐
bit FSR register and the IRP bit (STATUS<7>)
• However, IRP is not used in the PIC16F84A.
EEPROM Data Memory

– indirectly addressed through the Special Function
Register (SFR)
• SRFs are:
– EECON1
– EECON2

register
16
8/9/2016

– write the address to the EEADR register and data to the
EEDATA register
– follow a specific sequence to initiate the write for each byte

Data memory Organization
• Data memory:
– partitioned into multiple banks which contain the General Registers and
the Special Function Register
– Bits RP1 (STATUS<6>) and RP0 (STATUS<5>) are the bank select bits
• Each bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes).
– The lower locations of each bank are reserved for the Special Function
Registers.
– Above the Special Function Registers are General Purpose Registers

PCL and PCLATH
• The program counter (PC) is 13‐
bits wide.
• The low byte comes from the PCL
register, which is a readable and
writable register.
• The upper bits (PC<12:8>) are not
readable, but are indirectly
writable through the PCLATH
register.
• On any RESET, the upper bits of
the PC will be cleared. Loading of PC in different situations:
• how the PC is loaded on a write to PCL
(PCLATH<4:0> → PCH).
• how the PC is loaded during a CALL or
GOTO instruction (PCLATH<4:3> →PCH)
Bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử - ĐHBK Chapter 3 47
Stack
• The PIC16F87X family has an 8‐level deep x 13‐bit wide
hardware stack.
• The stack space is not part of either program or data space
and the stack pointer is not readable or writable.
• The PC is PUSHed onto the stack when a CALL instruction is
executed, or an interrupt causes a branch.
• The stack is POPed in the event of a RETURN,RETLW or a
RETFIE instruction execution.
• PCLATH is not affected by a PUSH or POP operation.
24
8/9/2016
Program Memory Paging (1)
• All PIC16F87X devices are capable of addressing a continuous
8K word block of program memory.
• The CALL and GOTO instructions provide only 11 bits of address
to allow branching within any 2K program memory page.
• When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction, the upper 2 bits of the
address are provided by PCLATH<4:3>.
• When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction, the user must ensure
that the page select bits are programmed so that the desired
program memory page is addressed.
• If a return from a CALL instruction (or interrupt) is executed, the
entire 13‐bit PC is popped off the stack.
• The contents of the PCLATH register are unchanged after a
RETURN or RETFIE instruction
Bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử - ĐHBK Chapter 3 49
Program Memory Paging (2)
• Example:
– call of a subroutine in page 1 from page 0
– assumes that PCLATH is saved and restored by the Interrupt Service
Routine (if interrupts are used).
ORG 0x500
BCF PCLATH,4
BSF PCLATH,3 ;Select page 1 (800h‐FFFh)
CALL SUB1_P1 ;Call subroutine in page 1 (800h‐FFFh)
:
ORG 0x900 ;page 1 (800h‐FFFh)
SUB1_P1
: ;called subroutine page 1 (800h‐FFFh)
:
RETURN ;return to Call subroutine
;in page 0 (000h‐7FFh)
25
8/9/2016
Indirect Addressing (1)
• Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF register.
• Any instruction using the INDF register actually accesses the
register pointed to by the File Select Register, FSR.
• Reading the INDF register itself, indirectly (FSR = ’0’) will read
00h.
• Writing to the INDF register indirectly results in a no operation
(although status bits may be affected).
• An effective 9‐bit address is obtained by concatenating the 8‐
bit FSR register and the IRP bit (STATUS<7>),
Indirect Addressing (2)
