11.8  SNOOZE Mode Function 
 
In the SNOOZE mode, A/D conversion is triggered by inputting a hardware trigger in the STOP mode.  Normally, A/D 
conversion is stopped while in the STOP mode, but, by using the SNOOZE mode function, A/D conversion can be 
performed without operating the CPU.  This is effective for reducing the operating current.
 
If the A/D conversion result range is specified using the ADUL and ADLL registers, A/D conversion results can be 
judged at a certain interval of time in SNOOZE mode.  Using this function enables power supply voltage monitoring and 
input key judgment based on A/D inputs. 
 
In the SNOOZE mode, only the following two conversion modes can be used: 
•  Hardware trigger wait mode (select mode, one-shot conversion mode) 
•  Hardware trigger wait mode (scan mode, one-shot conversion mode) 
 
Caution  The SNOOZE mode can only be specified when the high-speed on-chip oscillator clock is selected 
for f
CLK

When using the SNOOZE mode function, the initial setting of each register is specified before switching to the STOP 
mode.  (For details about these settings, see 11.7.3  Setting up hardware trigger wait mode
Note 2
.)  Just before move to 
STOP mode, bit 2 (AWC) of A/D converter mode register 2 (ADM2) is set to 1.  After the initial settings are specified, bit 0 
(ADCE) of A/D converter mode register 0 (ADM0) is set to 1. 
If a hardware trigger is input after switching to the STOP mode, the high-speed on-chip oscillator clock is supplied to 
the A/D converter.  After supplying this clock, the system automatically counts up to the A/D power supply stabilization 
wait time, and then A/D conversion starts. 
The SNOOZE mode operation after A/D conversion ends differs depending on whether an interrupt signal is 
generated
Note 1
 
Notes 1.  Depending on the setting of the A/D conversion result comparison function (ADRCK bit, ADUL/ADLL 
register), there is a possibility of no interrupt signal being generated. 
 2.  Be sure to set the ADM1 register to E2H or E3H. 
 
Remark  The hardware trigger is INTRTC or INTIT. 
 
Specify the hardware trigger by using the A/D Converter Mode Register 1 (ADM1).
