2.2.2.6 PCON Register

The Power Control (PCON) register (see Table 12-2)

contains flag bits to differentiate between a:

• Power-on Reset (POR)

• Brown-out Reset (BOR)

• Watchdog Timer Reset (WDT)

bit 0

Unimplemented: Read as ‘0’

POR: Power-on Reset Status bit

1 = No Power-on Reset occurred

0 = A Power-on Reset occurred (must be set in software after a Power-on Reset occurs)
