11.2.1 Power-on Reset
A Power-on Reset (POR) pulse is generated by an On-chip detection circuit. The detection level is defined in ”Sys-
tem and reset characteristics” on page 334. The POR is activated whenever V
CC
is below the detection level. The
POR circuit can be used to trigger the start-up Reset, as well as to detect a failure in supply voltage.
A Power-on Reset (POR) circuit ensures that the device is reset from Power-on. Reaching the Power-on Reset
threshold voltage invokes the delay counter, which determines how long the device is kept in RESET after V
CC
rise.
The RESET signal is activated again, without any delay, when V
CC
decreases below the detection level.
