9.8 Reset Timing
Note: Software Reset should be initiated no sooner then 500 µs after power-up or the deassertion of hardware reset.
Note: It is important to choose pull-up and/or pull-down resistors for each of the hardware configuration pins that provide fast RC time constants in order to
latch-in the proper value prior to the pin transitioning to an output driver.
Note: The timing for Hardware Reset Option 2 is equal to parameter T1 plus parameter T2 (501 µs total).
