PIC16C5X
8.2
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer (WDT), respectively (Section 9.2.1). For simplic-
ity, this counter is being referred to as “prescaler”
throughout this data sheet. Note that the prescaler may
be used by either the Timer0 module or the WDT, but
not both. Thus, a prescaler assignment for the Timer0
module means that there is no prescaler for the WDT,
and vice-versa.
The PSA and PS<2:0> bits (OPTION<3:0>) determine
prescaler assignment and prescale ratio.
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions
writing
MOVWF 1, BSF 1,x, etc.) will clear the prescaler.
When assigned to WDT, a CLRWDT instruction will clear
the prescaler along with the WDT. The prescaler is nei-
ther readable nor writable. On a RESET, the prescaler
contains all '0's.
8.2.1
The prescaler assignment is fully under software con-
trol (i.e., it can be changed “on the fly” during program
execution). To avoid an unintended device RESET, the
following instruction sequence (Example 8-1) must be
executed when changing the prescaler assignment
from Timer0 to the WDT.

Preliminary
EXAMPLE 8-1:
To change prescaler from the WDT to the Timer0 mod-
ule, use the sequence shown in Example 8-2. This
sequence must be used even if the WDT is disabled. A
CLRWDT instruction should be executed before switch-
ing the prescaler.
