Hi all, I'm using a PIC 16C710/711. I implement the idea that the circuit does some data collection, and after a MCLR reset the stored result will be sent out. To distinguish between MCLR reset and POR one I was glad to see the POR bit in the 8E register. I tried to use it but it does not seem to work (I read it, if it is 0, I assume it is a POR reset AND I set it to 1. This 1 should be reset only during POR. However, it is always re-set to zero.) Now I set a particular register to 5Ah as it is odd enough not to be set accidentally, and I check that register whether it is 5Ah (-> MCLR) or not (POR). However, I see, it is a Q&D solution. Have you any experience with that POR bit? Do I something wrong? Thanks in advance Imre
