Like I mentioned this is not used in production. We use it only during development to reboot the PIC. And Microchip told us to use exit(0) to reboot the PIC through software. I'm only asking about this because I'm curious why it happens, since every time it happens we have to physically power cycle the PIC. And this is undesirable because some of the other components take long to boot.
