2.1.3. The Configuration Registers

The PIC18F452 microcontrollers have a set of configuration registers (PIC16 series had only one configuration register). Configuration registers are programmed during the programming of the flash program memory by the programming device. These registers are shown in Table 2.2. The descriptions of these registers are given in Table 2.3. Some of the important configuration registers are described in this section in detail.
