OSCILLATOR START-UP TIMER (OST)
The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) provides a 1024
oscillator cycle (1024T

detected high or a wake-up from SLEEP event occurs.
The OST time-out is invoked only for XT and LF oscilla-
tor modes on a Power-on Reset or a Wake-up from
SLEEP.
The OST counts the oscillator pulses on the
OSC1/CLKIN pin. The counter only starts incrementing
after the amplitude of the signal reaches the oscillator
input thresholds. This delay allows the crystal oscillator
or resonator to stabilize before the device exits reset.
The length of time-out is a function of the crystal/reso-
nator frequency.

TIME-OUT SEQUENCE
On power-up the time-out sequence is as follows: First
the internal POR signal goes high when the POR trip
point is reached. If MCLR is high, then both the OST
and PWRT timers start. In general the PWRT time-out
is longer, except with low frequency crystals/resona-
tors. The total time-out also varies based on oscillator
configuration. Table 4-1 shows the times that are asso-
ciated with the oscillator configuration. Figure 4-2 and
Figure 4-3 display these time-out sequences.
If the device voltage is not within electrical specification
at the end of a time-out, the MCLR/V
held low until the voltage is within the device specifica-
tion. The use of an external RC delay is sufficient for
many of these applications.

TABLE 4-1:
TIME-OUT IN VARIOUS
SITUATIONS
The time-out sequence begins from the first rising edge
of MCLR.
Table 4-3 shows the reset conditions for some special
registers, while Table 4-4 shows the initialization condi-
tions for all the registers. The shaded registers (in
Table 4-4) are for all devices except the PIC17C42. In
the PIC17C42, the PRODH and PRODL registers are
general purpose RAM.

Legend:
Note 1: On wake-up, this instruction is executed. The instruction at the appropriate interrupt vector is fetched and
then executed.
2: The OST is only active when the Oscillator is configured for XT or LF modes.
3: The Program Counter = 0, that is the device branches to the reset vector. This is different from the
mid-range devices.
