MenuBecause when you configure RA3 to act as a normal input the MCLR signal is disconnected from the pin and instead connected to Vdd internally. In other words, it's not the PIN that's connected to Vdd...

Hello everyone,
a very basic question,
I have a 16F690 with the RA3 MCLR configured as input, and the RA3 pin
is connected to a 4k7 resistor pulldown and a switch tied to the VDD and it's...
answer found !
from thread: PBP or ASM?
I cannot speak for all flavors of basic or C, the biggest difference is going to be your time. Assembly requires many times more lines of code to be written...
usually like most of hobbyist I write my programs
in basic high level instructions as shown in the programing manual
eg: For A = x to y
next A
so far my understanding of the compiler...
could work good, input coupling cap, output would swing about 0, then ZCD could work...

Re: 16F690 MCLR as Input
many thanks Henrik to clarify this post.

has nothing connected to it, the input is floating thus
when adding a pulldown it's...
