Overview

The H8/300H CPU has five processing states: the program execution state, exception-handling
state, power-down state, reset state, and bus-released state. The power-down state includes sleep
mode, software standby mode, and hardware standby mode. Figure 2.11 classifies the processing
states. Figure 2.13 indicates the state transitions.

Program Execution State

In this state the CPU executes program instructions in normal sequence.
Program execution state
The CPU executes program instructions in sequence
Exception-handling state
A transient state in which the CPU executes a hardware sequence
(saving PC and CCR, fetching a vector, etc.) in response to a reset,
interrupt, or other exception
Bus-released state
The external bus has been released in response to a bus request
signal from a bus master other than the CPU
Reset state
The CPU and all on-chip supporting modules are initialized and halted
Power-down state
The CPU is halted to conserve power
