SO the problem with MCLR IS tied to ICSP - ha ha. At least that confirms that little mystery. Has anyone got any more clues as to my ICSP socket termination question ? -----Original Message----- From: pic microcontroller discussion list [mailto:PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU]On Behalf Of Arno Cammans Sent: Friday, 7 February 2003 6:14 am To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: pic16F877 Reset question Thanks for the help .. the problem was indeed in the fuses. I was using the Microchip templates and the _LVP_ was ON instead of OFF. Since i don't use LVP (yet) i turned it off and now the reset works properly. Arno Quoting Jai Dhar >>That should be ok - same setup as I have. Did you set your fuses right while programming? I believe that MCLR can be programmed as a reset or as something else... not too sure. But check your programming software. > I have a weird problem with my pic16f877. On power-up everything runs fine, but as soon as i reset the board doesn't seem to do anything anymore. MCLR is connected to a 10k pull-up and a resetbutton which is tied to the ground, so that should work fine. As far as i know, on reset the program should start at 0x000 .. or am i wrong ? -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
