Freescale Semiconductor 125
10.6 Computer Operating Properly Module (COP)
10.6.1 Wait Mode
The COP remains active during wait mode. If COP is enabled, a reset will occur at COP timeout. 
10.6.2 Stop Mode
Stop mode turns off the CGMXCLK input to the COP and clears the SIM counter. Service the COP 
immediately before entering or after exiting stop mode to ensure a full COP timeout period after entering 
or exiting stop mode.
The STOP bit in the CONFIG1 register enables the STOP instruction. To prevent inadvertently turning off 
the COP with a STOP instruction, disable the STOP instruction by clearing the STOP bit.
10.7 External Interrupt Module (IRQ)
10.7.1 Wait Mode
The external interrupt (IRQ) module remains active in wait mode. Clearing the IMASK bit in the IRQ status 
and control register enables IRQ
 CPU interrupt requests to bring the MCU out of wait mode.
10.7.2 Stop Mode
The IRQ module remains active in stop mode. Clearing the IMASK bit in the IRQ status and control 
register enables IRQ
 CPU interrupt requests to bring the MCU out of stop mode.
10.8 Keyboard Interrupt Module (KBI)
10.8.1 Wait Mode
The keyboard interrupt (KBI) module remains active in wait mode. Clearing the IMASKK bit in the 
keyboard status and control register enables keyboard interrupt requests to bring the MCU out of wait 
mode.
10.8.2 Stop Mode
The keyboard module remains active in stop mode. Clearing the IMASKK bit in the keyboard status and 
control register enables keyboard interrupt requests to bring the MCU out of stop mode.
