9.4.1 MCLR Enabled
When MCLR is enabled and the pin is held low, the device is held in Reset. The MCLR pin is connected to VDD through an internal weak pull-up.
The device has a noise filter in the MCLR Reset path. The filter will detect and ignore small pulses.
Important: An internal Reset event (
RESET
instruction, BOR, WWDT, POR, STKOVF, STKUNF) does not drive the MCLR pin low.
