16F1827 setup

It's definitely in my P16F1827.INC file, but if Microchip has updated include files, it may
not be in the one you have. It should work either way.

Hi Bruce.

I searched on two MPLAB installations for this VCAPEN thing.

It is not in my *.inc files and also it is absent from the DS41391C pdf file too.

I wonder what is this for. Just curious.

Hi Ioannis,

In an early data sheet (and silicon I assume?) this was a config2, bit 4 option like in the 16F193x series for the voltage regulator capacitor enable/disable.

It magically vanished when the newer data sheet & .inc files were released, so I would just ignore it.

If you look in the CONFIG 2 section you'll see where they changed bit #4 to Reserved. Not sure what happened?

Hmm, maybe ghosts in the bits...

Who knows?

Thanks anyway.

Ioannis
