Timing issue

[gadelhas]

Hi everyone;

I'm facing a problem with the code below. IT works everything fine, except the timing. It takes always the double of the time in the "pause" instructuion. For instance, if i put PAUSE 5000, it takes 10s to execute.
The micro is 12F683 and is powered by a CR2032 battery.

Can some one help me? Thanks!!!

HI again;

One more thing that i notice is that when i power the circuit for the first time, it always turn on the led, however, the first instruction is "sleep", but it is not executed, but only when i power the circuit, after that it works fine, like it should work!

You should confirm that the device is really running at 4Mhz. Perhaps it is running at 2. You often have to set up the OSCCON register. Check the datasheet.
Also, the interrupt is triggered right away beause you have not cleared the interrupt flag BEFORE enabling the interrupt (usually PIR.x, but again, check your device).

Hi Charles;

First of all, thanks for your answer.

If you look at my code, you can see that the OSCCON is configured correctly. I allready found the time issue. The pic was actually running at 4Mhz, however the main code was executed 2 times. To resolve this problem, i change this code:

Main:
  @ SLEEP
  INTCON.0 = 0
  High led
  Pause 5000
  low led 
  GOTO Main

With this, just changed one line;

Main:
  @ SLEEP
  High led
  Pause 5000
  low led 
  INTCON.0 = 0
GOTO Main

Now the main code is only executed one time and them goes to sleep.

However, on power up the led still turns on, but it shoul not, because the first instruction is sleep. I follow your advice of clearing the interrupt flag before, however the behavior is the same.
I'm still try to figure it out. If someone has any idea please let me know.

Thanks

It should not make a difference, but it might... Bits 0 - 3 in the OSCCON are status bits. Try setting OSCCON = %01100000

You have the LED pin TRISed correctly in the setup but you did not make it LOW in the setup.
TRIS sets direction, the state should also be set.

Already tried to put the OSCCON like you said. It is the same thing. like you said, they are status bits.

You can see on my code, after the TRIS instruction, that i put all the GPIO low, with:

          '76543210
TRISIO = %00000001
   GPIO = %00000000
