placed at these locations. The circuit diagram in Figure 23 shows the reset logic. Table 3
defines the timing and electrical parameters of the reset circuitry.

Note:

1. The Power-on Reset will not work unless the supply voltage has been below V

POT

(falling).

Power-on Reset

A Power-on Reset (POR) circuit ensures that the device is reset from power-on. As
shown in Figure 23, an internal timer clocked from the Watchdog Timer oscillator pre-
vents the MCU from starting until after a certain period after V

CC

has reached the Power-

on Threshold voltage (V

POT

), regardless of the V

CC

rise time (see Figure 24).

The user can select the start-up time according to typical oscillator start-up time. The
number of WDT oscillator cycles is shown in Table 4. The frequency of the Watchdog
oscillator is voltage-dependent as shown in “Typical Characteristics” on page 107.

If the built-in start-up delay is sufficient, RESET can be connected to V

CC

directly or via

an external pull-up resistor. By holding the pin low for a period after V

CC

has been

applied, the Power-on Reset period can be extended. Refer to Figure 25 for a timing
example of this.
