2.2.1 BULK CAPACITORS
The use of a bulk capacitor is recommended to improve
power supply stability. Typical values range from 4.7 µF
to 47 µF. This capacitor should be located as close to
the device as possible.
2.3 Capacitor on Internal Voltage
Regulator (VCAP/VDDCORE)
2.3.1 INTERNAL REGULATOR MODE
A low-ESR (1 ohm) capacitor is required on the
VCAP/VDDCORE pin, which is used to stabilize the inter-
nal voltage regulator output. The VCAP/VDDCORE pin
must not be connected to VDD, and must have a CEFC
capacitor, with at least a 6V rating, connected to
ground. The type can be ceramic or tantalum. Refer to
Section 31.0 "Electrical Characteristics" for
additional information on CEFC specifications.
2.4 Master Clear (MCLR) Pin
The MCLR pin provides for two specific device
functions:
• Device Reset
• Device programming and debugging
Pulling The MCLR pin low generates a device Reset.
Figure 2-2 shows a typical MCLR circuit. During
device programming and debugging, the resistance
and capacitance that can be added to the pin must
be considered. Device programmers and debuggers
drive the MCLR pin. Consequently, specific voltage
levels (VIH and VIL) and fast signal transitions must
not be adversely affected. Therefore, specific values
of R and C will need to be adjusted based on the
application and PCB requirements.
For example, as shown in Figure 2-2, it is
recommended that the capacitor C, be isolated from
the MCLR pin during programming and debugging
operations.
Place the components shown in Figure 2-2 within
one-quarter inch (6 mm) from the MCLR pin.

R  10 k is recommended. A suggested
starting value is 10 k. Ensure that the MCLR
pin VIH and VIL specifications are met.
R1  470 will limit any current flowing into
MCLR from the external capacitor C, in the
event of MCLR pin breakdown, due to
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) or Electrical
Overstress (EOS). Ensure that the MCLR pin
VIH and VIL specifications are met.
The capacitor can be sized to prevent uninten-
tional Resets from brief glitches or to extend
the device Reset period during POR.
