6.0 RESETS
There are multiple ways to reset this device:
• Power-on Reset (POR)
• Brown-out Reset (BOR)
• Low-Power Brown-out Reset (LPBOR)
• MCLR Reset
• WDT Reset
• RESET instruction
• Stack Overflow

To allow VDD to stabilize, an optional power-up timer
can be enabled to extend the Reset time after a BOR
or POR event.
