9.1.2 Modes of Operation

There are four run modes on S12X devices.
Run mode, wait mode, stop mode
The XGATE is able to operate in all of these three system modes. Clock activity will be
automatically stopped when the XGATE module is idle.
Freeze mode (BDM active)
In freeze mode all clocks of the XGATE module may be stopped, depending on the module
configuration (see Section 9.3.2.1, “XGATE Control Register (XGMCTL)”).
