The Device Reset Timer (DRT) provides an 18 ms
nominal time-out on RESET regardless of Oscillator
mode used. The DRT operates on an internal RC oscil-
lator. The processor is kept in RESET as long as the
DRT is active. The DRT delay allows V
V
Oscillator circuits based on crystals or ceramic resona-
tors require a certain time after power-up to establish a
stable oscillation. The on-chip DRT keeps the device in
a RESET condition for approximately 18 ms after the
voltage on the MCLR/V
(V
the MCLR input are not required in most cases, allow-
ing for savings in cost-sensitive and/or space restricted
applications.
The Device Reset time delay will vary from chip to chip
due to V
AC parameters for details.
The DRT will also be triggered upon a Watchdog Timer
time-out. This is particularly important for applications
using the WDT to wake the PIC16C5X from SLEEP
mode automatically.

A brown-out is a condition where device power (V
dips below its minimum value, but not to zero, and then
recovers. The device should be RESET in the event of
a brown-out.
To RESET PIC16C5X devices when a brown-out
occurs, external brown-out protection circuits may be
built, as shown in Figure 5-6, Figure 5-7 and Figure 5-
8.
