24.5.2.1 Triggered Operation and Sleep Mode

When the module is configured for triggered operation, a trigger signal received from an external source can also wake the module and its time base clock source. The module must request the time base clock source before triggered operation can begin. When the trigger is received from the external source, the CCP module will enable the selected clock source for the time base. When the clock source becomes available, the module will begin triggered operation.

If One-Shot Triggered mode is selected, the time base clock source will be disabled when the CCPTRIG status bit is cleared in hardware. The time base remains disabled until a new trigger signal is received. The trigger signal can also be generated by an internal source that operates from a low-power clock source. When Sleep mode operation is enabled, the module will continue to request the configured clock source when the device enters Sleep mode.
