25.4 Setting of Option Byte 
The user option byte and on-chip debug option byte can be set using the assembler linker option, in addition to 
describing to the source. When doing so, the contents set by using the linker option take precedence, even if descriptions 
exist in the source, as mentioned below. 
A software description example of the option byte setting is shown below. 
OPT CSEG   OPT_BYTE  
DB 36H  ; Does not use interval interrupt of watchdog timer, 
          ;  Enables watchdog timer operation, 
          ;  Window open period of watchdog timer is 50%, 
          ;  Overflow time of watchdog timer is 2
9
/fIL,  
          ;  Stops watchdog timer operation during HALT/STOP mode 
  DB  1AH  ; Select 1.63 V for V
LVDL 
  ; Select rising edge 1.77 V, falling edge 1.73 V for V
LVDH 
  ; Select the interrupt & reset mode as the LVD operation mode 
DB 2DH  ; Select the LV (low voltage main) mode as the flash operation mode 
  and 1 MHz as the frequency of the high-speed on-chip oscillator clock 
DB 85H  ; Enables on-chip debug operation, does not erase flash memory 
data when security ID authorization fails 
Caution   To specify the option byte by using assembly language, use OPT_BYTE as the relocation attribute 
name of the CSEG pseudo instruction.
