Notes 1.  The internal reset processing time includes the oscillation accuracy stabilization time of the high-speed on-
chip oscillator clock. 
2.  The high-speed on-chip oscillator clock and a high-speed system clock or subsystem clock can be selected 
as the CPU clock. To use the X1 clock, use the oscillation stabilization time counter status register (OSTC) 
to confirm the lapse of the oscillation stabilization time. To use the XT1 clock, use the timer function for 
confirmation of the lapse of the stabilization time. 
3.  After the first interrupt request signal (INTLVI) is generated, the LVIL and LVIMD bits of the voltage 
detection level register (LVIS) are automatically set to 1. After INTLVI is generated, the initial settings 
should be made by software after the required save processing if the supply voltage might return to the 
high voltage detection level (V
LVDH) or higher without falling below the low voltage detection level (VLVDL). 
  4.  The time until normal operation starts includes the following LVD reset processing time after the LVD 
detection level (V
LVDH) is reached as well as the voltage stabilization wait + POR reset processing time after 
the V
POR (1.51 V, typ.) is reached. 
    LVD reset processing time: 0 ms to 0.0701 ms (max.)
