The module contains a power on reset circuit that ensures the module is reset at power on. The internal reset
circuit is triggered when the input voltage to the module drops below ~1.7V and is hence only suitable for
providing a power on reset signal. If the supply voltage to the module can drop below the minimum voltage level
in normal operation, then it is recommended that an external brownout circuit is provided to assert the module
reset and to ensure that the module is reset when the module supply voltage drops below 3.1V.
This will ensure that the module will return to an operational state when the supply voltage comes back within
specification. For example, if the module supply can drop to 2.7V and then be restored to 3.3V there is no
guarantee that the module will still be operational unless the reset signal has been asserted.
