2.3.2 Module RESET_N input
2.3.2.1 Guidelines for RESET_N circuit design
The RESET_N input line of the SARA-R410M and SARA-R412M modules is equipped with an internal
pull-up; an external pull-up resistor is not required.
If connecting the RESET_N input to a push button, the pin will be externally accessible on the
application device. According to EMC/ESD requirements of the application, an additional ESD
protection device (e.g. the EPCOS CA05P4S14THSG varistor) should be provided close to accessible
point on the line connected to this pin, as described in
Figure 34 and Table 22 .
☞
ESD sensitivity rating of the RESET_N pin is 1 kV (HBM according to JESD22-A114). Higher
protection level can be required if the line is externally accessible on the application board, e.g. if
an accessible push button is directly connected to the
RESET_N pin, and it can be achieved by
mounting an ESD protection (e.g. EPCOS CA05P4S14THSG varistor) close to accessible point.
An open drain output or open collector output is suitable to drive the RESET_N input from an
application processor, as described in Figure 34 .
☞
RESET_N input pin should not be driven high by an external device, as it may cause start up issues.

☞
If the external reset function is not required by the customer application, the RESET_N input pin
can be left unconnected to external components, but it is recommended providing direct access
on the application board by means of an accessible test point directly connected to the
RESET_N
pin for diagnostic purpose.
2.3.2.2 Guidelines for RESET_N layout design
The RESET_N circuit require careful layout due to the pin function: ensure that the voltage level is well
defined during operation and no transient noise is coupled on this line, otherwise the module might
detect a spurious reset request. It is recommended to keep the connection line to
RESET_N pin as
short as possible.
