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

Note 1:
If SBOREN is enabled, its Reset state is ‘1’; otherwise, it is ‘0’. See
Register 5-1 for additional information.
2:
The actual Reset value of POR is determined by the type of device Reset. See
Register 5-1 for additional
information.
