The Power Control (PCON) register contains a flag bit

to allow differentiation between a Power-on Reset

(POR) to an external MCLR Reset or WDT Reset.

Those devices with brown-out detection circuitry con-

tain an additional bit to differentiate a Brown-out Reset

condition from a Power-on Reset condition.

PIC16C7X

Note:

BOR is unknown on Power-on Reset. It

must then be set by the user and checked

on subsequent resets to see if BOR is

clear, indicating 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 (by clearing the BODEN

bit in the Configuration word).

- n = Value at POR reset

bit 1:

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)

bit 0:

BOR(1): Brown-out Reset Status bit

1 = No Brown-out Reset occurred

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

Note 1: Brown-out Reset is not implemented on the PIC16C73/74.
