4.6 Interrupts
When the AUTO bit is set in the PLL bandwidth control register (PBWC), the PLL can generate a CPU
interrupt request every time the LOCK bit changes state. The PLLIE bit in the PLL control register (PCTL)
enables CPU interrupts from the PLL. PLLF, the interrupt flag in the PCTL, becomes set whether
interrupts are enabled or not. When the AUTO bit is clear, CPU interrupts from the PLL are disabled and
PLLF reads as 0.
Software should read the LOCK bit after a PLL interrupt request to see if the request was due to an entry
into lock or an exit from lock. When the PLL enters lock, the VCO clock, CGMVCLK, divided by two can
be selected as the CGMOUT source by setting BCS in the PCTL. When the PLL exits lock, the VCO clock
frequency is corrupt, and appropriate precautions should be taken. If the application is not frequency
sensitive, interrupts should be disabled to prevent PLL interrupt service routines from impeding software
performance or from exceeding stack limitations.
NOTE
Software can select the CGMVCLK divided by two as the CGMOUT source
even if the PLL is not locked (LOCK = 0). Therefore, software should make
sure the PLL is locked before setting the BCS bit.
4.7 Special Modes
The WAIT instruction puts the MCU in low power-consumption standby modes.
4.7.1 Wait Mode
The WAIT instruction does not affect the CGM. Before entering wait mode, software can disengage and
turn off the PLL by clearing the BCS and PLLON bits in the PLL control register (PCTL) to save power.
Less power-sensitive applications can disengage the PLL without turning it off, so that the PLL clock is
immediately available at WAIT exit. This would be the case also when the PLL is to wake the MCU from
wait mode, such as when the PLL is first enabled and waiting for LOCK or LOCK is lost.
4.7.2 Stop Mode
If the OSCENINSTOP bit in the CONFIG2 register is cleared (default), then the STOP instruction disables
the CGM (oscillator and phase locked loop) and holds low all CGM outputs (CGMXCLK, CGMOUT, and
CGMINT).
If the OSCENINSTOP bit in the CONFIG2 register is set, then the phase locked loop is shut off but the
oscillator will continue to operate in stop mode.
4.7.3 CGM During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether status bits in other modules can be cleared during
the break state. The BCFE bit in the SIM break flag control register (SBFCR) enables software to clear
status bits during the break state. (See 15.7.3 Break Flag Control Register.)
To allow software to clear status bits during a break interrupt, write a 1 to the BCFE bit. If a status bit is
cleared during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect the PLLF bit during the break state, write a 0 to the BCFE bit. With BCFE at 0 (its default state),
software can read and write the PLL control register during the break state without affecting the PLLF bit.
