Configuration Word of PIC16F873
PIC16F873 has the special area to say Configuration Word in the program memory. This word is mapped in program memory location 2007h. This address is beyond the user program memory space. This word can be accessed only during programming. The following system requirements of PIC can be designated by the configuration word.
CP1,CP0 : Flash Program Memory Code Protection Bits. All of the CP1:CP0 pairs have to be given the same value to enable the code protection scheme listed.
| 11 | : | Code protection off
10 | : | 0F00h to 0FFFh code protected
01 | : | 0800h to 0FFFh code protected
00 | : | 0000h to 0FFFh code protected
DEBUG : In-Circuit Debugger Mode
| 1 | : | In-Circuit Debugger disabled, RB6 and RB7 are general purpose I/O pins.
0 | : | In-Circuit Debugger enabled, RB6 and RB7 are dedicated to the debugger.
WRT : Flash Program Memory Write Enable
| 1 | : | Unprotected program memory may be written to by EECON control
0 | : | Unprotected program memory may not be written to by EECON control
CPD : Data EEPROM memory Code Protection
| 1 | : | Code protection off
0 | : | Data EEPROM memory code protected
LVP : Low Voltage In-Circuit Serial Programming Enable bit
| 1 | : | RB3/PGM pin has PGM function, low voltage programming enabled The high voltage programming mode is always available, regardless of the state of the LVP bit.
0 | : | RB3 is digital I/O, High Voltage on MCLR must be used for programming
BODEN : Brown-out Reset Enable bit
| 1 | : | BOR enabled
0 | : | BOR disabled
PWRTE : Power-up Timer Enable bit
