CHAPTER 18 SELECTABLE POWER-ON-RESET CIRCUIT
18.1 Functions of Selectable Power-on-reset Circuit
The selectable power-on-reset (SPOR) circuit has the following functions.
• Generates internal reset signal at power on.
The reset signal is released when the supply voltage exceeds the detection voltage (V
DD ≥ VSPOR).
• The SPOR circuit compares the supply voltage (V
DD) with the detection voltage (VSPDR), and generates an internal
reset signal when VDD < VSPDR.
• The detection level for the power supply detection voltage (V
SPOR, VSPDR) can be selected by using the option byte
(000C1H) as one of 4 levels (for details, see 19.2 Format of User Option Byte).
Bit 0 (SPORF) of the reset control flag register (RESF) is set to 1 if reset occurs. For details of the RESF register, see
CHAPTER 17 RESET FUNCTION.
Note The values of all flags in the reset control flag register (RESF) are retained until VDD reaches data retention
lower limit voltage.
Remark V
SPOR: SPOR power supply rise detection voltage
VSPDR: SPOR power supply fall detection voltage
For details, see 24.6.4 SPOR circuit characteristics.
