2.3.2 Master Clear (MCLR) Pin
The MCLR pin works as a device Reset.
Pulling the MCLR pin low generates a device Reset. The basic connection and interface diagram of the module illustrates a typical MCLR circuit. See the Module Basic Connection and Interface Diagram in the Basic Connection Requirement from Related Links.
Note:
- The capacitor can be sized to prevent unintentional Resets from brief glitches or to extend the device Reset period during Power-on Reset (POR).
