9.0.4 External Reset
An External Reset is generated by a low level on the RESET
pin. Reset pulses longer than the
minimum pulse width (see Table 9-1) will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running.
Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset. When the applied signal reaches the
Reset Threshold Voltage – V

9.0.5 Brown-out Detection
AT90PWM2/2B/3/3B has an On-chip Brown-out Detection (BOD) circuit for monitoring the V
CC
level during operation by comparing it to a fixed trigger level. The trigger level for the BOD can
be selected by the BODLEVEL Fuses. The trigger level has a hysteresis to ensure spike free
Brown-out Detection. The hysteresis on the detection level should be interpreted as V
