8.5 RCON Register
The RCON register contains flag bits which are used to
determine the cause of the last Reset or wake-up from
Idle or Sleep modes. RCON also contains the IPEN bit
which enables interrupt priorities.
The operation of the SBOREN bit and the Reset flag
bits is discussed in more detail in Section 4.1 “RCON
Register”.

For details of bit operation, see Register 4-1.
Note 1: Actual Reset values are determined by device configuration and the nature of the
device Reset. See Register 4-1 for additional information.
