PIC12F510/16F506
4.4 OPTION Register
The OPTION register is a 8-bit wide, write-only register,
that 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 1: 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 GPPU
/RBPU
and GPWU/RBWU).
2: If the T0CS bit is set to ‘1’, it will override
the TRIS function on the T0CKI pin.
