bit 11
bit 0
Legend:
R = Readable bit
-n = Value at POR
W = Writable bit
‘1’ = Bit is set
U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
‘0’ = Bit is cleared
x = Bit is unknown
bit 11-5 Unimplemented: Read as ‘0’
bit 4 MCLRE: GP3/MCLR Pin Function Select bit
1 = GP3/MCLR pin function is MCLR
0 = GP3/MCLR pin function is digital input, MCLR internally tied to VDD
bit 3 CP: Code Protection bit
1 = Code protection off
0 = Code protection on
bit 2 WDTE: Watchdog Timer Enable bit
1 = WDT enabled
0 = WDT disabled
bit 1-0
FOSC<1:0>: Oscillator Selection bits
11 = EXTRC = external RC oscillator
10 = INTRC = internal RC oscillator
01 = XT oscillator
00 = LP oscillator
Note 1: Refer to the “PIC12F508/509 Memory Programming Specifications” (DS41227) to determine how to
access the Configuration Word. The Configuration Word is not user addressable during device operation.
