2.2.2.2
The OPTION_REG Register is a readable and writable
register, which contains various control bits to configure
the TMR0 prescaler/WDT postscaler (single assign-
able register known also as the prescaler), the External
INT Interrupt, TMR0 and the weak pull-ups on PORTB.

Note:
OPTION_REG Register
When using low voltage ICSP programming (LVP) and the pull-ups on PORTB are enabled, bit 3
in the TRISB register must be cleared to disable the pull-up on RB3 and ensure the proper oper-
ation of the device
OPTION_REG REGISTER (ADDRESS 81h, 181h)
RBPU: PORTB Pull-up Enable bit
1 = PORTB pull-ups are disabled
0 = PORTB pull-ups are enabled by individual port latch values
INTEDG: Interrupt Edge Select bit
1 = Interrupt on rising edge of RB0/INT pin
0 = Interrupt on falling edge of RB0/INT pin
T0CS: TMR0 Clock Source Select bit
1 = Transition on RA4/T0CKI pin
0 = Internal instruction cycle clock (CLKOUT)
T0SE: TMR0 Source Edge Select bit
1 = Increment on high-to-low transition on RA4/T0CKI pin
0 = Increment on low-to-high transition on RA4/T0CKI pin
PSA: Prescaler Assignment bit
1 = Prescaler is assigned to the WDT
0 = Prescaler is assigned to the Timer0 module
PS2:PS0: Prescaler Rate Select bits
Bit Value TMR0 Rate WDT Rate

To achieve a 1:1 prescaler assignment for
the TMR0 register, assign the prescaler to
the Watchdog Timer.
