POWER SAVING MODES (Cont’d)
8.4 ACTIVE-HALT AND HALT MODES
Active-halt and Halt modes are the two lowest
power consumption modes of the MCU. They are
both entered by executing the ‘HALT’ instruction.
The decision to enter either in Active-halt or Halt
mode is given by the MCC/RTC interrupt enable
flag (OIE bit in MCCSR register).
8.4.1 ACTIVE-HALT MODE
Active-halt mode is the lowest power consumption
mode of the MCU with a real-time clock available.
It is entered by executing the ‘HALT’ instruction
when the OIE bit of the Main Clock Controller Sta-
tus register (MCCSR) is set (see
page 37
The MCU can exit Active-halt mode on reception
of either an MCC/RTC interrupt, a specific inter-
rupt (see Table 8, “Interrupt Mapping,” on
page 44) or a RESET. When exiting Active-halt
mode by means of an interrupt, no 256 or 4096
CPU cycle delay occurs. The CPU resumes oper-
ation by servicing the interrupt or by fetching the
reset vector which woke it up (see
When entering Active-halt mode, the I[1:0] bits in
the CC register are forced to ‘10b’ to enable inter-
rupts. Therefore, if an interrupt is pending, the
MCU wakes up immediately.
In Active-halt mode, only the main oscillator and its
associated counter (MCC/RTC) are running to
keep a wake-up time base. All other peripherals
are not clocked except those which get their clock
supply from another clock generator (such as ex-
ternal or auxiliary oscillator).
The safeguard against staying locked in Active-
halt mode is provided by the oscillator interrupt.
Note: As soon as the interrupt capability of one of
the oscillators is selected (MCCSR.OIE bit set),
entering Active-halt mode while the Watchdog is
active does not generate a RESET.
This means that the device cannot spend more
than a defined delay in this power saving mode.

Notes:
1. This delay occurs only if the MCU exits Active-
halt mode by means of a RESET.
2. Peripheral clocked with an external clock source
can still be active.
3. Only the MCC/RTC interrupt and some specific
interrupts can exit the MCU from Active-halt mode
(such as external interrupt). Refer to Table 8, “In-
terrupt Mapping,” on page 44 for more details.
4. Before servicing an interrupt, the CC register is
pushed on the stack. The I[1:0] bits of the CC reg-
ister are set to the current software priority level of
the interrupt routine and restored when the CC
register is popped.
