2.2.2.2 Option Register
The Option register is a readable and writable register
which contains various control bits to configure:
• TMR0/WDT prescaler
• External RA2/INT interrupt
• TMR0
• Weak pull-up/pull-downs on PORTA
Note:
To achieve a 1:1 prescaler assignment for
TMR0, assign the prescaler to the WDT by
setting the PSA bit to ‘1’
(OPTION_REG<3>). See Section 5.4
“Prescaler”.

RAPU: PORTA Pull-up/Pull-down Enable bit
1 = PORTA pull-ups/pull-downs are disabled
0 = PORTA pull-ups/pull-downs are enabled by individual port latch values
INTEDG: Interrupt Edge Select bit
1 = Interrupt on rising edge of RA2/INT pin
0 = Interrupt on falling edge of RA2/INT pin
T0CS: TMR0 Clock Source Select bit
1 = Transition on RA2/T0CKI pin
0 = Internal instruction cycle clock (CLKOUT)
T0SE: TMR0 Source Edge Select bit
1 = Increment on high-to-low transition on RA2/T0CKI pin
0 = Increment on low-to-high transition on RA2/T0CKI pin
PSA: Prescaler Assignment bit
1 = Prescaler is assigned to the WDT
