4.4 OPTION Register
The OPTION register is a 8-bit wide, write-only
register, which contains various control bits to
configure the Timer0/WDT prescaler and Timer0.
By executing the OPTION instruction, the contents of
the W register will be transferred to the OPTION
register. A RESET sets the OPTION<7:0> bits.
Note: If TRIS bit is set to ‘0’, the wake-up on
change and pull-up functions are disabled
for that pin (i.e., note that TRIS overrides
OPTION control of RBPU
and RBWU).
