Reset Functions
There are five ways in which a reset can occur, through events occurring both internally and
externally:
Power-on Reset
The most fundamental and unavoidable reset is the one that occurs after power is first applied to the.
As well as ensuring that the Program Memory begins execution from the first memory address, a
power-on reset also ensures that certain other registers are preset to known conditions. All the I/O
port and port control registers will power up in a high condition ensuring that all pins will be first set
to inputs.

RSTD
is power-on delay, typical time=50ms
RES Pin
As the reset pin is shared with an I/O pin, the reset function must be selected using a configuration
option. Although the has an internal RC reset function, if the V
DD
power supply rise time is not fast
enough or does not stabilise quickly at power-on, the internal reset function may be incapable of
providing proper reset operation. For this reason it is recommended that an external RC network is
connected to the RES pin, whose additional time delay will ensure that the RES pin remains low for
an extended period to allow the power supply to stabilise. During this time delay, normal operation
of the will be inhibited. After the RES line reaches a certain voltage value, the reset delay time
t
RSTD
is invoked to provide an extra delay time after which the will begin normal operation. The
abbreviation SST in the figures stands for System Start-up Timer.
For most applications a resistor connected between VDD and the RES pin and a capacitor connected
between V
SS
and the RES pin will provide a suitable external reset circuit. Any wiring connected to
the RES pin should be kept as short as possible to minimise any stray noise interference.
For applications that operate within an environment where more noise is present the Enhanced Reset
Circuit shown is recommended.
