2.8 Processing States
The H8S/2000 CPU has five main processing states: the reset state, exception handling state,
program execution state, bus-released state, and program stop state. Figure 2.13 indicates the state
transitions.
• Reset state
In this state the CPU and on-chip peripheral modules are all initialized and stopped. When the
5(6 input goes low, all current processing stops and the CPU enters the reset state. All
interrupts are masked in the reset state. Reset exception handling starts when the 5(6 signal
changes from low to high. For details, refer to section 4, Exception Handling.
The reset state can also be entered by a watchdog timer overflow.
• Exception-handling state
The exception-handling state is a transient state that occurs when the CPU alters the normal
processing flow due to an exception source, such as, a reset, trace, interrupt, or trap instruction.
The CPU fetches a start address (vector) from the exception vector table and branches to that
address. For further details, refer to section 4, Exception Handling.
• Program execution state
In this state the CPU executes program instructions in sequence.
• Bus-released state
In a product which has a bus master other than the CPU, such as a data transfer controller
(DTC), the bus-released state occurs when the bus has been released in response to a bus
request from a bus master other than the CPU. While the bus is released, the CPU halts
operations. For details, see section 6, Bus Controller (BSC).
• Program stop state
This is a power-down state in which the CPU stops operating. The program stop state occurs
when a SLEEP instruction is executed or the CPU enters hardware standby mode. For details,
refer to section 26, Power-Down Modes.
