The MCU can operate in different modes. These are described in
The MCU can operate in different power modes to facilitate power saving when full system performance
is not required. These are described in
Some modules feature a software programmable option to freeze the module status whilst the background
debug module is active to facilitate debugging.
1.9.1
The different modes and the security state of the MCU affect the debug features (enabled or disabled).
The operating mode out of reset is determined by the state of the MODC signal during reset (see
Table
mode switching during operation. The state of the MODC signal is latched into this bit on the rising edge
of RESET.
1.9.1.1
This mode is intended for normal device operation. The opcode from the on-chip memory is being
executed after reset (requires the reset vector to be programmed correctly). The processor program is
executed from internal memory.
1.9.1.2
This mode is used for debugging single-chip operation, boot-strapping, or security related operations. The
background debug module BDM is active in this mode. The CPU executes a monitor program located in
an on-chip ROM. BDM firmware waits for additional serial commands through the BKGD pin.
1.9.2
The MC9S12VR-Family has two dynamic-power modes (run and wait) and two static low-power modes
stop and pseudo stop). For a detailed description refer to Section Chapter 4 Clock, Reset and Power
Management (S12CPMU_UHV).

can configure the device operating speed through selection of the clock source and the phase
locked loop (PLL) frequency. To save power, unused peripherals must not be enabled.
