CHAPTER 8 LOW-POWER CONSUMPTION MODE
8.5.1 Sleep Mode
This mode causes the CPU operating clock to stop during operation in each clock
mode. The CPU stops, and peripheral function operates.
■ Switching to Sleep Mode
Writing 1 in the SLP bit and 0 in the STP bit of the low-power consumption mode control register
(LPMCR) triggers a switch to a sleep mode according to setting of the MCS and SCS bits in the clock
selection register (CKSCR). Table 8.5-2 shows the correspondence between MCS and SCS bits in the clock
selection register (CKSCR) and sleep mode.
Note:
When 1 is written to the SLP and STP bits of the low-power consumption mode control register
(LPMCR) at the same time, the STP bit setting overrides the SLP bit setting and the mode switches to
the stop mode. When 1 is written to the SLP bit and 0 is written to the TMD bit at the same time, the
TMD bit setting overrides the SLP bit setting and the mode switches to the timebase timer mode or
watch mode.

Data retention function
In a sleep mode, the contents of dedicated registers, such as accumulators, and the internal RAM are
retained.
