Re: PIC16F876, WDT not clearing !TO in STATUS. Known problem?

Not as far as I know of. You might want to check for errata at Microchip's site. Maybe the reset you are getting is from something other than the WDT.


Pretty sure it is WDT because if I enable WDT on the ICD programmer, I get "MCLR in normal operation" status bits (!POR, !BOR, !TO, and !BD are all true). If I disable WDT, I do not get the reset at all. It is happening while I'm in delay_ms(500) - which I now avoid using. It would be kind of useful if the CCS compiler had an option to embed the CLRWDT in that function.

When I check the Microchip web site, if I am specific (WDT, Errata) I get no matching documents, and otherwise I get them all.

WDT.
