9.3.1 Reset Pins
Three reset related pins are provided on MMC2001: a reset input (RSTIN), a low-volt-
age detect reset input (LVRSTIN), and a reset output (RSTOUT).
The RSTIN input is an active low input which is connected to external power-on and
other reset control sources. This input is qualified as a valid reset if held low for at
least four LOW_REFCLK clock cycles.
The LVRSTIN input is an active low input which is connected to low-voltage detection
circuitry. No qualification is performed for this input; it must thus be driven in a well-
controlled manner.
The RSTOUT output is an active drive pin used to reset external devices. This pin is
driven low when either qualified external resets are detected or on-chip resets
(watchdog timer, power-up-reset circuitry) are generated. The minimum length is
eight LOW_REFCLK cycles. The RSTOUT pin remains low if either reset input pin is
held low.
9.3.2 Reset Sources
Three sources are capable of generating a reset condition:
• An external qualified low condition on either reset input pin. The RSTIN signal
must be valid low for four LOW_REFCLK clock cycles. LVRSTIN has no qualifi-
cation requirements.
• Internal watchdog timer.
• Internal power-on reset circuitry.
