    Default PortA 16F627

    Hi
    I have a few questions relating to the use of portA on this PIC.
    The pin outs describe pin 4 as RA5\MCLR, if not used as MCLR does this mean I can use RA5 as a regular output and if so, how?

    Also the same is true for pin 15 = RA6\OSC2\CLKOUT. I am using the internal OSC so how do I use this pin as a regular output?

    Any help is appreciated

    Tony

    Change the CONFIG fuse bits... except for the fact that RA5/MCLR can only be used as an input.

    Also the same is true for pin 15 = RA6\OSC2\CLKOUT. I am using the internal OSC so how do I use this pin as a regular output?
    Same thing, change the CONFIG bits to change the oscillator mode (Internal osc, RA6 I/O)

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
