PIC18 Instruction Cycle

5.2.1

CLOCKING SCHEME

The microcontroller clock input, whether from an

internal or external source, is internally divided by four

to generate four non-overlapping quadrature clocks

(Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4). Internally, the program counter is

incremented on every Q1; the instruction is fetched

from the program memory and latched into the

instruction register during Q4. The instruction is

decoded and executed during the following Q1 through

Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow are

shown in Figure 5-3.

5.2.2

INSTRUCTION FLOW/PIPELINING

An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles: Q1

through Q4. The instruction fetch and execute are

pipelined in such a manner that a fetch takes one

instruction cycle, while the decode and execute take

another instruction cycle. However, due to the

pipelining, each instruction effectively executes in one

cycle. If an instruction causes the program counter to

change (e.g., GOTO), then two cycles are required to

complete the instruction (Example 5-3).

A fetch cycle begins with the Program Counter (PC)

incrementing in Q1.

In the execution cycle, the fetched instruction is latched

into the Instruction Register (IR) in cycle Q1. This

instruction is then decoded and executed during the

Q2, Q3 and Q4 cycles. Data memory is read during Q2

(operand read) and written during Q4 (destination

write).

All instructions are single cycle, except for any program branches. These take two cycles since the fetch instruction

is “flushed” from the pipeline while the new instruction is being fetched and then executed.
