Why the Chat forum? This is an 8051-specific question!

Sorry for the wrong forum. Awkwardness of mine. I wish I could correct it.

couldn't get it into idle mode.

How are you sure it's never getting into Idle Mode?


Right after I stopped all interrupts, I set the PCON.0 and then placed some code making an outport's pin toggling. It was still toggling.


Atmel's AT89C4051 Datasheet, Section 9, page 7 said:
The idle mode can be terminated by any enabled interrupt


Andy Neil said:
Could it not be that it does get into Idle Mode, but the exits (almost) immediately due to an interrupt...?


I suppose so,
Would it be the reason I have used an external clock for the controller?
