This must be on page one of a data sheet someplace, but am I to assume....
- Whenever the MCLR pin is pulled low, the Pic will reset and start it's code execution again - fresh start, from the top "reboot" like?
I'm powering the pic with a 3.3 v supply from a volt pump - when I disable the pump, the supply will drop back to 1.5v (AA battery) - the min voltage for the pic (16F677) is 2.0, so I'm assuming it'll "die" and start from the top when the volt pump is re-activated and the voltage supply comes back up to 3.3v - but I want to make sure.
If I set the rest of the design to pull the MCLR low at the same time the volt pump is turned off, and held low until it's turned back on - this should allow a clean "restart" of the PIC each time.... right?
Seemed obvious, but figured I'd ask before building it.![]()
