Processing States

5.7 Processing States

The SC140 core is always in one of the five processing states:

Execution

Debug

Reset

Wait

Stop

These states are described in the sections that follow. In some states, the operation of peripherals and other blocks is affected.

Note: The descriptions of the change in operation given here may be different for certain products that utilize a SC140 core. Consult the product-specific manuals for details of actions in each processing state.

5.7.1 Processing State Change Instructions

Processing state changes can be initiated by hardware or software means. Table 5-16 lists the instructions that can initiate a processing state change.

Table 5-16. Processing State Change Instructions
