Thx Rob for the feedback!

Well. I've checked the hardware, I have a PCB manufactured in lab, A4 goes
to a connector only.
I suspect a defective chip. It also has a weird behavior on PWM.
There are five registers to be written to get the standard PWM mode as
shown in the code below.
The PWM clock source was set to Fosc (PWM1CLKCON_CS = 00)
That is meaning according to my understanding that changing the Foc from
8Mhz to 32MHz and keeping the PWM registers unchanged, the PWM frequency
will increase 4 times on 32Mhz compared with 8 Mhz.
However, the frequency reamains exactly the same, 10KHz at 8Mhz or 32Mhz (
verified on RA4)  so the PWM clock arhitecture from datasheet seems to be
wrong, or the chip is bad.

PWM1CLKCON = 0b00000001 -- No prescaler, divide clk source by 1
PWM1CON = 0b11000000

PWM1PH = 800    --100uS, 0.5duty
PWM1DC = 1600   ; PWM1_duty = (PWM1DC - PWM1PH)/(PWM1PR+1)
PWM1PR = 1600   ; PWM1_period = (PWM1PR + 1)*prescaler/ PWM1CLK
                ; PWM1CLK = 1/(target_clock/4) =  0.5uS  at 8MHz
