Chapter 6
Reset and Boot
6.1 Introduction
The following reset sources are supported in this MCU:
Table 6-1. Reset sources
Reset sources Description
POR reset • Power-on reset (POR)
System resets • External pin reset (PIN)
• Low-voltage detect (LVD)
• Computer operating properly (COP) watchdog reset
• Low leakage wakeup (LLWU) reset
• Multipurpose clock generator loss of clock (LOC) reset
• Multipurpose clock generator loss of lock (LOL) reset
• Stop mode acknowledge error (SACKERR)
• Software reset (SW)
• Lockup reset (LOCKUP)
• MDM DAP system reset
Debug reset • Debug reset
Each of the system reset sources has an associated bit in the system reset status (SRS)
registers. See the Reset Control Module for register details.
The MCU can exit and reset in functional mode where the CPU is executing code
(default) or the CPU is in a debug halted state. There are several boot options that can be
configured. See Boot information for more details.
6.2 Reset
This section discusses basic reset mechanisms and sources. Some modules that cause
resets can be configured to cause interrupts instead. Consult the individual peripheral
chapters for more information.
