PIC16(L)F720/721
3.6 Time-out Sequence
PWRT time-out is invoked after POR has expired. The
total time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration
and PWRTE bit status. For example, in EC mode with
PWRTE bit = 1 (PWRT disabled), there will be no time-
out at all. Figure 3-5, Figure 3-6 and Figure 3-7 depict
time-out sequences.
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, if MCLR
is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire. Then,
bringing MCLR high will begin execution immediately
(see Figure 3-6). This is useful for testing purposes or
to synchronize more than one PIC16(L)F720/721
device operating in parallel.
Table 3-5 shows the Reset conditions for some special
registers.
3.7 Power Control (PCON) Register
The Power Control (PCON) register has two Status bits
to indicate what type of Reset that last occurred.
Bit 0 is BOR (Brown-out Reset). BOR is unknown on
Power-on Reset. It must then be set by the user and
checked on subsequent Resets to see if BOR = 0,
indicating that a Brown-out has occurred. The BOR
Status bit is a “don’t care” and is not necessarily
predictable if the brown-out circuit is disabled
(BOREN<1:0> = 00 in the Configuration Word register).
Bit 1 is POR (Power-on Reset). It is a ‘0’ on Power-on
Reset and unaffected otherwise. The user must write a
‘1’ to this bit following a Power-on Reset. On a
subsequent Reset, if POR is ‘0’, it will indicate that a
Power-on Reset has occurred (i.e., VDD may have
gone too low).
For more information, see Section 3.5 “Brown-out
Reset (BOR)”.
