Brownout Reset (BOR)
The microcontroller provides a brownout detection circuit that triggers if the V
DD
(external) or V
DDA
(analog)
power supply drops below its corresponding brownout threshold voltage. If a brownout condition is
detected, the system may generate an interrupt, a system reset or a POR. The default value at reset is to
generate an interrupt.
The application can identify the type of BOR event that occurred by reading the Power-Temperature
Cause (PWRTC) register. The BOR detection circuits can be programmed to generate a reset, System
Control interrupt, or NMI in the Power-Temp Brownout Control (PTBOCTL) register. The default settings at
reset are:
•
V
DDA
under BOR detection default setting is for no action to occur.
•
V
DD
under BOR detection default setting is to execute a full POR.
If the user has programmed a field in the PTBOCTL register to generate a reset, then the BOR bit of the
RESBEHAVCTL register can be programmed to further define what type of reset is generated:
•
If the BOR field is set to 0x3, a full POR is initiated.
•
If the BOR field is set to 0x2, then a system reset is issued.
•
If the BOR field is set to 0x0 or 0x1, then the brownout detection circuit performs its default operation
upon assertion, which is issuing an interrupt.
