PIC16(L)F720/721
10.0 FIXED VOLTAGE REFERENCE
This device contains an internal voltage regulator. To
provide a reference for the regulator, a fixed voltage
reference is provided. This fixed voltage is also user
accessible via an A/D converter channel.
User level fixed voltage functions are controlled by the
FVRCON register, which is shown in Register 10-1.

Peripheral Conditions Description
HFINTOSC FOSC = 1 EC on CLKIN pin.
BOR
BOREN<1:0> = 11 BOR always enabled.
BOREN<1:0> = 10 and BORFS = 1 BOR disabled in Sleep mode, BOR Fast Start enabled.
BOREN<1:0> = 01 and BORFS = 1 BOR under software control, BOR Fast Start enabled.
IVR All PIC16F720/721 devices, when
VREGPM1 = 1 and not in Sleep
The device runs off of the Power-Save mode regulator when
in Sleep mode.
