MC68HC12 Datasheet, PDF (169/478 Pages) Motorola, Inc – The MC68HC912DT128A microcontroller unit (MCU) is a 16-bit device composed of standard on-chip peripherals including a 16-bit central processing unit

Clock Functions
Limp-Home and Fast STOP Recovery modes
12.6.4 STOP exit without Limp Home mode, clock monitor disabled
(NOLHM=1, CME=0, DLY=X)
If Limp home mode is disabled (V_DDPLL=V_SS or NOLHM bit set) and the
CME (or FCME) bit is cleared, the MCU goes into STOP mode when a
STOP instruction is executed.
If EXTALi clock is present then exit from STOP will occur normally using
this clock. Under this condition, DLY should always be set to allow the
crystal to stabilise and minimise the risk of code runaway. With DLY=1
execution resumes after a delay of 4096 XCLK cycles.
NOTE: The external clock signal should stabilise within the 4096 reset counter
cycles. Use of DLY=0 is not recommended due to this requirement.
12.6.5 Executing the STOP instruction without Limp Home mode, clock monitor enabled
(NOLHM=1, CME=1, DLY=X)
If the NOLHM bit and the CME (or FCME) bits are set, a clock monitor
failure is detected when a STOP instruction is executed and the MCU
resets via the clock monitor reset vector.
12.6.6 STOP exit in Limp Home mode with Delay
(NOLHM=0, CME=X, DLY=1)
If the NOLHM bit is cleared, then the CME (or FCME) bit is masked when
a STOP instruction is executed to prevent a clock monitor failure. When
coming out of STOP mode, the MCU goes into limp-home mode where
CME and FCME signals are asserted.
When using a crystal oscillator, a normal STOP exit sequence requires
the DLY bit to be set to allow for the crystal stabilization period.
With the 13-stage counter clocked by the VCO (at f_VCOMIN), following a
delay of 4096 XCLK cycles at the limp-home frequency, if the clock
monitor indicates the presence of an external clock, the limp-home mode
is de-asserted and the MCU exits STOP normally using EXTALi clock.
