PIC 16F877 BROWN-OUT RESET (BOR)

[RICKYLO]

difference between reset and brown out reset

Hi Guys,

I am using this PIC 16F877 and I seem to be confused with the difference between the Watchdog Timer and the BROWN-OUT RESET.
Could anyone please help me out with what each of these are and what they do.


Regards, Rickylo
